He
was convinced that he was never going to see her again, and yet there
she was, standing right in front of him, smiling.
For the rest of
the Day Inu Yasha couldn't get her out of his mind. It had been
over three years since he saw her, and she had grown even more
beautiful than before. He hadn't decided weather or not to be mean
to her or nice, maybe even more than nice. In those three years they
spent apart he had changed. He was no longer the ass that he was, he
still didn't trust anybody, but learned how to allow people into
his heart.
A week went by and not much happened. Miroku was
chasing Sango around, grabbing her ass whenever he got the chance;
followed by a bloody nose. Kagome and Sango were best friends, so
Miroku had gotten to know her quite well. Inu Yasha, who wasn't
sure of what do, stayed away from her. He did such a good job that
she didn't know that he went to that school.
That Friday Miroku
threw a huge party. Over a hundred of people showed up, good thing
that he lived in a huge house. Everybody was having a great time.
Some people were dancing, there was a group getting stoned in the
corner, and the ones that drank were outside playing in the pool. The
rest was scattered.
"Inu Yasha" Inu Yasha was sitting on the
stairs; thinking. Many girls had tried to talk to him and ask him to
dance, but he didn't even pay attention to them; he was deep in
thought. "Are you in there?" Miroku got close to Inu Yasha's
face and looked into his eyes. "How much did you drink?"
"Knock
it off" Inu Yasha pushed Miroku away. "I haven't touched it"
"Then what the matter" he looked worried in a funny
way.
"Nothing"
"You're thinking about her" He smiled
excitedly.
"Who" Inu Yasha turned form Miroku.
"Go ahead
and deny it all you want" he sat down next to Inu Yasha. "There
is a very attractive woman at the kitchen table by herself Inu Yasha.
You should keep her company."
"feh, I'm not in the
mood"
"Soot yourself, but I thought you might enjoy yourself"
he walked away. Inu Yasha looked up at the table, curious.
"kagome?"
he whispered to himself. He closed his eyes and shook his head. "im
dreaming" he opened then and she was gone. A few minutes went by..
"Man I gotta pee" he stood up and walked around the corner to the
bathroom, only to run into somebody knocking them over. "I'm
sorry" he said helping her up. "I didn't mean to.."
"No
it's ok really, I wasn't paying attention." She looked up and
stopped. He looked down at her; his heart stopped. He had his arms
semi around her trying to help her up. He could feel her tense in
fear. He finished letter her up and released his grip. He looked
down, she was shaking slightly. She turned and started to walk away.
Inu Yasha grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"What are you
doing here?" he asked trying to act confused.
"i..um…Sango"
"You
came with Sango?" Inu Yasha asked
"Yeah" she didn't smile,
just looked scared and nervous.
"Are you ok, you are acting like
you are scared of me or something?"
Kagome suddenly became angry
"AND WHY WOULDN'T I BE?" she screamed. She stopped herself and
blushed. "Sorry" she looked down. "You just…I mean you" she
didn't want to finish. She turned and started to walk away again.
He grabbed her hand once again and opened it. He placed something
inside, closing it. He didn't even look at her.
"I meant to
give this to you for Christmas the year you left. I kept it with me
all week hoping that I would run into you" With that he walked out
the front door. He jumped into his car and drove away.
Kagome
stood there confused. He opened her hand to see a silver necklace
with a K dangling from it. She could feel her eyes swell as she ran
out the door after Inu Yasha, only to see him speed away in his car.
She ran back inside to find Sango.
"SANGO!" she screamed as
she ran up to her best friend, who was talking to a group of football
players. Kagome grabbed her arm and dragged her outside. She pulled
her almost into the bushes.
"kagome, what's going on?"
"I
saw Inu Yasha"
"Did he hurt you" Sango said in a protective
way looking around for him.
"No, he was being nice. He gave this
to me" she showed her the necklace "and said that he was bought
it for me for Christmas the year that I switched schools."
"What?"
Sango was completely shocked.
"Why hello" Miroku said scaring
the two girls, causing them to jump and scream, dropping the
necklace. Miroku picked it up like it was nothing. He looked at it
and his face went pale.
"What's wrong Miroku?"
"Where
did you get this necklace" he asked Kagome.
"Inu Yasha gave it
to me"
"He did? I didn't think he had the guts" He handed
it to kagome. "What did you say to him?"
"Nothing, he gave
it to me and left. I tried to chase after him, but he was already
gone."
"Oh, well then, follow me" he walked into the house
and into the hallway. He opened a door that led to the basement. He
turned on the light and closed the door. They could barely hear any
music. Miroku took out his cell and dialed a number. "Don't say a
word; he has better hearing than humans."
"What are you
doing?" asked a panicking Kagome.
"I think I know" Sango
whispered "shhh"
RING Inu Yasha reached for his phone.
He saw that it was Miroku. He had just pulled into his driveway and
stopped the car. He wanted to think for minute before he went inside.
He wasn't going to pick it up but changes his mind at the last
minute. "What Miroku, whatever it is I'm not in the mood"
"You
know, you should be more respectful. I talked to kagome just now. He
was cry because a filthy half-bread touched her"
Inu Yasha's
heart stopped. Kagome's jaw was dangling is surprise, Sango was
trying not to laugh "WHAT!" screamed Inu Yasha.
Miroku
laughed "joking, just joking" All they heard after that was the
muffled curses flying out of Inu Yasha's mouth. Miroku was trying
hard not to laugh. "Calm down,"
"That was a dirty joke you
bastard" Inu Yasha screamed.
"You should know me by now"
"So
what do you want Miroku" Inu Yasha was pissed.
"I just wanted
to tell you that I did talk to kagome and she loved the necklace, as
a matter of fact she cried she was so happy."
There was a pause.
"Really?" Inu Yasha ask.
"Yes she did, and she wants you to
take her to the homecoming dance tomorrow" He winked at Kagome
who's eyes were as big as her head.
"She…wants to go with
me?"
"Hey would I lie to you?"
"Yes"
"That
hurt, do you really believe that I would lie to you about something
like this"
"After having you covered with feathers,
yes"
"Would you like to ask her yourself?"
"She's
there?" he blushed
"Yep, and I can have her tell you herself"
with out hesitation he threw the phone to kagome who just stared at
it. She put it to her ear. "Now you have to say yes or it would
hurt him" Miroku mouthed to kagome. She understood
perfectly.
"Hello" she said.
"Huh…kagome?" he was
definitely nervous.
"Yeah"
"h-hi, h-how are you?" he
semi stuttered. "OMG SHE'S TALKING TO ME, SHE MUST NOT BE MAD AT
ME ANYMORE" he yelled in his head.
"I'm Doing ok I
guess"
"Me to…I guess"
Pause
"You've
changed"
"Have I really?"
"Yes you have"
"Well,
I don't think that I have"
"You have"
"What are you
saying I'm a pussy now?" he raised his voice.
"No, that
you're not mean anymore"
Pause
"Oh…so, did you want
to.."
"Sure"
"Ok, I'll pick…you up
at…"
"6"
"Tomorrow?"
"Sure"
"ok"
"great"
"yeah"
Pause
"I
guess I'll see you Tomorrow, Inu Yasha"
"yeah I guess soo"
he replied.
"Bye"
"bye kagome"
They hung up
Kagome just stood there in silence while Sango and Miroku smiled at her. It took a minute but kagome finally smiled. He kinda wanted to go, just to see what he was like now, but she worried that he was just trying to set up some cruel trick.
Inu Yasha was sitting in his car, his heart beating fast. "I can't believe she said yes." He put his keys in his pocket and sat there a little longer. He started to think about tomorrow and the challenge awaiting him. He somehow had to please a girl that he doesn't know a thing about. How was he supposed to do that? He had no idea. He looked down wishing his mom was still alive, if she was he would have asked her, but his only family had was his crazy older brother. He wouldn't know anything. Suddenly it hit him, the perfect plan…
