Chapter 2 Late Start

It was a Saturday morning, something Inuyasha very rarely saw. "It's way too early for me to be up," Inuyasha grumbled still half asleep.

BRIIIING!

BRIIIING!

"ARRRRGH," Inu hollered, "Why me?"

BRIIIING!

BRIIIING!

"COMING," he yelled like whoever was calling could hear him.

"Hello," Inu answered. "Hi Inuyasha," Jenny said from the other end. "You better have a good excuse for calling me this early, baka," he said, very angry she would call him this early in the morning. "I do," she started. "WELL WHAT IS IT? SPIT IT OUT I AIN'T GOT ALL DAY, BAKA," Inuyasha yelled finally losing his temper. "I was getting there," Jenny ground out, her temper quickly slipping out of reach. "Well not fast enough," Inu stated, "Get to it and make it quick." "FINE, YOUR LATE," she said losing it for the first time in a long time. "What," he asked truly clueless. "YOUR LATE, INUYASHA, DO YOU NEED ME TO SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU? Y.O.U...," Jenny was rudely cut off. "Stupid Baka, it's only 10 o'clock," Inu stated matter-o-factly. "ONLY? ONLY? Inuyasha, rehearsal started at 8 which so conveniently happened to be an hour and a half ago," Jenny screeched into the receiver. "What, I thought it started at ten thirty," Inu yelped. "Nope, and everyone else is already here so, HURRY UP AND GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE," she screamed like there was no tomorrow. "Fine, I'm on my way now," Inu stated calmly. With that said he quickly hung up. On his way out he snatched an apple out of a green and blue basket his grandma made him, which was currently sitting on the kitchen table.

He then ran out the door to the garage where his black Ferrari was parked. He unlocked it and hopped inside, the radio automatically turning on. It was in the middle of the song, 1985 Inuyasha hummed to all the songs on the way there.

It took him about 15 minutes to get to the studio. As soon as he walked through the door everyone turned to face him. Kagome was the first person to speak. "Well The Royal Pain has finally arrived, so now maybe we can get this show on the road. Oh, and by the way, Inuyasha, since you were two hours late, now instead of getting to leave at nine tonight we can't leave until eleven. Now then would you care to share why you're so late," She questioned. "First off you have no right to interrogate me, and second of all, WHY DO WE HAVE TO REHEARSE FOR THIRTEEN FREAKIN' HOURS," Inuyasha felt like punching something. "I wasn't interrogating you," Kagome mumbled.

Jenny was the next one to speak up. "We need to rehearse for thirteen hours because you guys need all the details about the movie."

"Well," Inuyasha snapped.

"Do I actually have to kiss him," Kagome cried.

"You don't have the right to complain...WHY DO I HAVE TO KISS HER," Inuyasha questioned.

"Don't act like you don't want to," Kagome sneered.

"I'm not acting, baka," Inuyasha stated hotly.

"OK children," Jonathon yelled.

Both Kagome and Inuyasha huffed and turned their backs to one another.

"Now, there will be a little kissing involved, but not much," Jenny concluded. She then handed them their scripts.

"A LITTLE JENNY THAT'S A LOT," Kagome screeched.

"NOT MUCH," Inu hollered.

"I don't even like him," Kagome protested

"Which is why we think that you guys may not hate each other as much if you live in a penthouse together until the movie is completed," Jenny said

"That's funny. I don't dislike her I despise her," Inu said.

"Which is why you WILL live together until the movie is made," Jenny said.

"WHAT," Kagome and Inuyasha hollered at the same time.

AN:OH Cliffy! I'm bad! Sorry about the wait people. Well this chappie was a little longer, but I will make them longer. I just didn't want to make you wait. One more thing I have two story ideas and I want to know which one you guys think I should write first. I'll give you until next Wednesday (November 10) to review and tell me what you think. Here are your choices:

Twisting Fate- Kagome gets proposed to by her boyfriend Kouga. There's just one thing bothering her, why aren't her parents thrilled? I mean they have always looked forward to her getting married, so what's the deal?

Prom Date- Kagome and Kikyo are twin sisters, and they both like the hottest guy in school. Prom is coming up in three weeks, so who will catch his eye? Can you say "sibling rivalry?"
