A/N: Ya'll probably think that I'm a butthead by now, huh? (For not updating…) Lol. And now you're like, "Oooh… Yeah…" Lol. I'm really sorry!!!! At least I updated? (puts on a smile) Yeah, that ain't gonna cover it… Lol. Okay, well, just so you know that I have finally made a decision that Inuyasha and Kagome won't hook up anytime soon… Same goes for the movie. When the time is, it's right. Well, enough blubbering and let's get this fic started! Enjoy!
Oh! There is a picture for this chapter! Where Kagome and Inuyasha goes to the zebra club. You don't have to see it… But it would make me happy and grateful if you did!
Defiant Enchantress
Chapter Eight
Rumors / Zebra Club
Kagome didn't know what was up with Inuyasha the next day. All she said was hi and now there's a dark cloud over Inuyasha's head. Miroku wasn't even making it easy for her, either. Always grinning at her, sending looks, and worse, touches her. She sat down in the living room of the apartment, staring aimlessly at the ceiling.
Kikyo and Hojo sat next to her in the kind of small couch. Kit, Dondi and Tokinashi sat in beach chairs. Inuyasha and Miroku were sitting in the kitchen's stools.
"Dude! You like totally crushed potassium!" Miroku cried, waving a flattened banana.
"It was rotten… So, might as well smash the crap out of it." Inuyasha shrugged.
"Right. You keep telling yourself that…" Miroku got up and threw away the banana under the sink. He sighed as he invited himself to the group in the living room. Inuyasha crossed his arms on the counter and leaned his chin on it.
He closed his eyes trying very hard to tune out the voices that were going through his head.
"Yeah, it doesn't make any sense at all…" Definitely can't tune out her voice. Kagome. "Why do I have to go? It's not like the world's going to end if I don't."
'Because you suck…' Inuyasha thought.
"Well, it's important if you are taken notice." Kit said. She was writing a few things on a piece of paper that was connected to her clipboard. Her glasses at the tip of her nose, her hair straightened down on her back, and her smile was there.
'No, that's wrong…'
"Just think of it this way… You'll have fun!" Hojo smiled. Kagome nodded and smiled at him.
"Oh, Homo! Go do your nails!"
"Fun…? In a club? Okay…" Kagome shrugged, as she wasn't sure if wanted to go to this 'club' at all.
No, it's pure torture…'
"Zere will be a lotz of people!" Dondi smiled.
'With pitch forks and torches…'
"You might meet someone there…" Miroku up and downed his eyebrows. Kagome nodded with annoyance.
'Who will slice your neck open…'
"Loads of paparazzi…!" Kit pointed a pen at her and continued to write in her clipboard.
'Taking pictures of your dead body…'
"Just don't get drunk." Kikyo crossed her arms. "People will offer you… So, just say no."
'Say yes so your torture will be painless…'
"And not to mention, Inuyasha will be going with you…"
'And then you can…' Inuyasha sat up, "WHAT?!"
…
…
"You're going, too, Inuyasha, and no arguments or you're out of the movie." Kit reasoned with him so he wouldn't say anything.
"B-but…" Inuyasha slouched and pouted, "But that's so unfair… Why me?! Why not Miroku?!"
Miroku nodded, "Yeah, why not me??"
"Well, I'd hate to say it in front of everyone, Inuyasha…" Kit looked over at him as Inuyasha was still in shock.
"Say it! I would really like a good reason!"
"Because you and Kagome will need to spend some quality time with each other. You two are the most important lead in this movie and I'm not going to go through a lot of arguments with the both of you."
Inuyasha looked over at Kagome, who was sitting up like a stick, eyes small as beads, and her mouth opened.
"That's it…?" Inuyasha lowered his face at Kit. "You're making me go with butt-face so we can… get a long with each other…?" Miroku snickered. "I don't think it's funny, airhead!"
"That's precisely the reason. Any of you two refuse; pack your bags. I'm sure I can find replacements." Kit looked at Kagome then at Inuyasha, tapping her pen on her clipboard.
Inuyasha and Kagome said at once, "I'll go!"
"I thought so…" Kit yawned. "Well, anyways… You two will need to dress up… It's the Zebra Club. Tokinashi has your guys' tickets… and Hojo will drive you both there tonight at 7 sharp. Okay?"
"All righty… But I don't have anything to wear…" Kagome looked over at Kit.
Kikyo elbowed her, "I have a top that you can wear… You can wear your black skirt that you wore the other day. I think it'll look cute together." Kagome nodded.
"Thanks, Kikyo."
Inuyasha sighed and looked down at his wrist watch, "Only four more hours until seven…"
…
…
"Ten more minutes…" Inuyasha put his hands back in his pockets. "Where is she? She's going to make us late… that psycho-"
"Brat?" Inuyasha turned around to see Kagome and smirked a light one.
"No, more of a psycho wench but I guess I could that," what he's about to say in a little bit, he should've just kept his mouth shut. "You look good, tonight."
Kagome lowered her head down hoping he wouldn't see her light blush, "Really? I thought I'd look like a hoe…"
Inuyasha only nodded. She had on a top that revealed a lot of her top body. The shirt looks more of a halter-top zebra print sports bra, than a simple tee. Her black skirt was all the way down to her ankle, a zebra print tie around her neck, three inched black flip-flops, and her hair in a high ponytail showing all of her face features.
"Nah, it's because your shirt belongs to Kikyo… She dresses like a hoe all the time…" he watched her undo her tie.
Kagome smiled handing him her tie, "Thanks… You look good, too… Putting a jacket over the clothes you wore today…" He was wearing a suit jacket, his Pearl band t-shirt, denim jeans, and red and white Etnies. She had a side smile on her face, "But I'd rather have you wear this than me… Okay?" she looked at him as if she was the most innocent thing he's ever seen, so he couldn't refuse and took the tie from her. He pulled it over his neck and opened the SUV limo door.
He was about to get in but stopped himself. He smiled and said, "Ladies first…"
Kagome raised an eyebrow and stepped in. She sat down and when he went in also, sitting across from her, she asked, "Are you being nice so I can send a good report to Kit and that both of our butts would stay in the movie?"
Inuyasha grinned devilishly, "Maybe…?" Kagome just laughed looking out the window.
…
…
Dondi laughed, "Zoo you really sink zat zay woulda getz zalong?"
"Let's just hope that Inuyasha comes back whole… Who knows what those two would pull on each other?" Tokinashi waved a pointed finger at Dondi. Both of them were sitting in a nice, warm spa having their shoulders massaged by two build men. Dondi took a sip from her wineglass Pepsi (Ahhh… good times, good times…).
"I agree with you there…" Dondi nodded.
Tokinashi looked over at Dondi, "What?"
"I zaid, zat I agree withz you zere…" Dondi cleared her throat.
…
…
"Omigod! OMIGOD! INUYASHA! AHHHHH!!!" Girls were screaming everywhere as Inuyasha got out. He stopped by the door holding out his hand for Kagome to hold onto. She did what he expected her to do and smiled.
"KAGOME! KAGOME!" Guys were screaming her name, too. Inuyasha just smiled as he and Kagome were making their way through the entrance. He was in front of the entrance until he realized that Kagome wasn't next to him.
"Where the-!" he found her as she was signing autograph for her fans. She smiled for the paparazzi to take pictures, said thank-you to everyone and still continued to smile. She was yanked once again by Inuyasha.
"Ow! Why did you do that??" Kagome pulled back her wrist and started to rub it. "That hurts, you know!"
Inuyasha rolled his eyes at her, "You were taking in the glory again…"
"So? I was having fun! You know that this is only a 15 minute fame for me!" Kagome snapped.
"Dude, Kagome… You were famous before you even started this gig, and you will still be famous after the movie is out…" He muttered but she got every word, until a few photographers and reporters butted in.
"Why are the two couple arguing?!" "Did he just abused her?!" "Are they going to break up again?!"
Inuyasha stuffed his hands in his pockets and looked pale. Kagome saw his expression and smiled, "Come on… Let's get inside… I know you don't want to hear all this rubbish." Inuyasha nodded and followed her in.
