Chapter 29:
Therest ofday was spent planning on what exactly they were going to do for the Battle of the Bands, which was tomorrow.
"OK. We'll sing the song we just did up there. We have one chance at winning this, and we're not gonna give it up. Got it?" Inuyasha told everyone.
"Right." Everyone said.
But what they didn't know was that a figure lingered in the shadows, watching them. It smiled before it whipped around and walked out of the resturaunt and walked down the street before stepping into a black Lexus and driving away.
Back with the gang...
"I want everyone to go to bed early tonight and get a good nights sleep for tomorrow." Inuyasha said.
"We need to be at the center by 10:00 AM, right?" Miroku said.
"Right." Inuyasha replied. "Do you have a ride Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yeah. My brother can bring me." Kagome said.
Brother? Inuaysha thought. He'd dealt with older brothers before, and he usually didn't like it. "Umm... OK." Inuyasha said. "Theb let's all get out of here and rest up for tomorrow." He said as he stodd up and, leaving money for the food on the table with a tip, followed by everyone else as they all walked out of the resturaunt.
With Kagome...
"I'm home!" She called through the house, remembering that her brother was still there probably. But she hadn't expected him to pop out in front of her and hug her like he did a moment later. "Whoa! Yusuke! What's with you?"
"Where have you been?" Yusuke exclaimed. "You've been gone for three days straight and you didn't even call. I was scared something happened to you."
"You look like you haven't slept in a few days too." Kagome said, but saw the serious look on her brother's face and decided to stop with the joking. "Look, I'm sorry, OK? I was with my friends. First I went to Inuyasha's house and ended up spending the night there, thenwe went out to play one night with this other band, and Inuyasha and Koga got drunk, so we stayed over at a friend's house, and now I'm here. I'm sorry. I completely forgot to call you to tell you."
"It's OK. You're here now." Yusuke said.
"Right. Now you should get some sleep." Kagome said. "But do you think you could give me a ride tomorrow to the City Center? The Battle of the Bands is there and I need to be there to play."
"Sure. But only if you tell me about this Inuyasha guy." Yusuke said. "You slept over at his house? I need to meet him. Is he good to you? I'm gonna need his pho-"
"Whoa! Yusuke! You'll meet him, alright? Don't worry. Yes, I slept over at his ho-"
"You guys didn't share a bed, did you?" Yusuke asked.
Well, they had, but Kagome really didn't want to tell her brother that. But she couldn't lie either. "Yes. But we didn't do anything!" Kagome said.
"Hmm..." Yusuke said.
"You're not going to meet him if you won't trust me with my own boyfriend." Kagome said.
"He got drunk when you guys went out to play somewhere?" Yusuke asked.
"YUSUKE!" Kagome yelled. "Dont' get overprotective on me! Please!"
"OK, fine. But I want to meet him." Yusuke said.
"Yeah yeah. now go to bed. We need to be at the center by 10:00 AM." Kagome said before recieving a kiss on the forehead from her brother, who just noticed was in nother but boxers. he looked like he had been working out while he was at school. but this was her brother. No gawking.
"Good night kiddo." He said before he messed up her hair and went to his own room.
"Night." Kagome called to him before going to her own room and changing into her PJ and gettingunder her covers and quickly falling into slumber, dreaming of winning the competition tomorrow.
With Miroku and Sango...
"OK Miroku! Time for bed!" Sango called from in the bedroom.
Miroku was watching TV, sitting in nothing but his boxers as he helled a can of Pepsi in one hand. "Coming!" He called back before drinking the rest of his Pepsi, turning the TV off,and walking into the bedroom where Sango was already snuggled under the blankets and ready to sleep.
Miroku went to other side of the bed and lifted the covers, causing a slight chill to hit Sango's back before Miroku got under the covers and turned over, wrapping an arm around Sango and pulling her close. "Good night." He whispered before kissing her on the cheek. "I love you." He said.
Then Sango turned over so she was facing Miroku. "I love you too." She said before giving Miroku a peck kiss on the lips. "Good night." She said before turning back over and drifting off into slumber with Miroku's arm around her.
Miroku was perfectly comfortable this way, and soon fell asleep too.
With Inuyasha...
Inuyasha was just getting to bed. He was in nothing buta blue and green plad pair of boxers when his door swung open and Mayuka walked in.
Inuyasha let out a heavy sigh as his sister walked over to him. "What?"
"Tomorrow is your big day. Good luck." She said before giving him a hug. "Nock 'em dead tomorrow."
"Aren't you gonna be there tomorrow?" Inuyasha asked.
"As a judge and special guest. So I won't be able to wish you luck in front of the other bands. And I'm sure everyone will think I'm gonna give you a good score just because I'm your brother. But I'm letting you know now, that you're gonna have to earn your score from me. OK?" Mayuka told him.
"OK." Inuyasha said.
"Alright! Now get your ass in bed! I wanna see you win tomorrow! So get your rest!" Mayuka said as she pushed Inuyasha into bed and pulled the covers over him, tucking him into bed.
"Yes mother." Inuyasha joked.
"Do I look like your mother?" Mayuka asked.
"No." Inuyasha said. "But you're acting like her."
"Very funny." Mayuka said before kissing Inuyasah on the forehead. "See you in the morning." She said before heading into the hallway. "Six AM boy! You better be up!"
"WHAT?" Inuyasha yelled. Then he saw Mayuka stick her head back into the doorway with a smile on her face that told him that she was joking. He chuckled before laying back down and getting comfortable. He quickly fell asleep after hearing Mayuka close his door slowly, dreaming of Kagome and his band winning the competition tomorrow.
