Chapter Four: Going to Club Bleu

Kikyo looked over at Inuyasha when she was eating her ice cream. She noticed that he had changed since the last time she had seen him. His face was somehow softer.

'Perhaps the stupid girl Kagome changed him,' Kikyo thought bitterly to herself.

"Inuyasha, are you even listening to me?" Kikyo demanded out loud.

"Huh?" Inuyasha asked, a bit distracted.

"I asked you if you had any plans for the rest of the day," Kikyo repeated her question.

"Miroku and I had planned on going to a new club tonight with the girls," Inuyasha answered.

"Can I join you guys?" Kikyo asked innocently.

"Uh…sure…I guess."

Kikyo smiled sweetly at him. 'This is my chance to ruin their relationship.'

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

"Why don't we all go shopping right now so that we'll have new outfits tonight?" Sango suggested when she noticed that Kagome was quieter than usual. She guessed that the reason for Kagome's gloominess was due to the unexpected arrival of Kikyo and her stealing of Inuyasha's attention.

"Sure," Kagome replied, brightened by the idea of shopping. She then turned towards Miroku. "Drive us to the mall, please?"

Miroku looked at his younger sister. He, too, had guessed the reason for her sadness and decided that he would have to have a talk with Inuyasha later. Miroku nodded and the three headed out to his car. "Do you have to pick up Kohaku, Sango?"

"Yeah, but…" Sango suddenly remembered that she had to go and pick up her younger brother.

"It's ok, I'll drop you girls off at the mall, then pick up Souta and Kohaku. Then, I'll come pick up you girls whenever you're done. You have your cell phone right Kag?"

"Yep," Kagome raised her cell phone to show that she still had it.

"Thanks Miroku," Sango smiled, before she felt a hand on her butt. She slapped him before stomping away quickly to his car.

"Miroku," Kagome proceeded to chastise her brother. "You are never going to get her attention if you keep on groping her."

"I can't help it," Miroku said sheepishly. Miroku finally reached his car and he got into the driver's seat. The girls sat in the backseat because Sango couldn't trust Miroku if she sat in the passenger seat and Kagome wanted to keep Sango company.

The drive to the mall finally ended and Sango and Kagome got out of the car.

The two headed to Forever 21 and began to look through the racks of clothing. After a half an hour, Sango found a red dress she showed to Kagome.

"Kagome, you have to try on this dress," Sango prompted, "I think it will look great on you.

"Are you sure?" Kagome looked doubtfully. Sango just pushed her into one of the dressing rooms. When Kagome finished changing, she stepped out so that Sango can inspect her outfit.

The dress had straps that crossed in the back and the neckline was in a v-shape. The hem of the skirt reached her mid-thigh and there was a black dragon design on the right side of the dress.

"We have got to buy that dress," Sango exclaimed. "The dress spells 'Kagome' that's for sure!"

Kagome laughed at her friend's remark. "Now, let's look for one that would fit you. I happen to know that Miroku likes the color purple on girls."

"Kagome!" Sango yelled at her friend and blushed. "I don't care what color Miroku likes."

Kagome winked at Sango. "Sure, whatever you say Sango."

The two girls browsed through the racks of clothing until Kagome found a dark purple dress that came down to the mid-thigh and had double straps.

"Sango," Kagome yelled across the rack to get the other girl's attention. "Miroku would just drool all over you if you were in this dress."

Sango blushed at her friend's comment but had to agree that the dress looked cute. "It looks cute," Sango agreed.

"Not just cute, but sexy," Kagome smirked as the red color on Sango's cheeks intensified. With that, Kagome pushed Sango into one of the dressing rooms. When Sango stepped out, Kagome had to congratulate herself on selecting a simple, yet sexy dress for her friend.

The two paid for the dresses and Kagome used her cell phone to call Miroku. When Miroku arrived, he begged for a glimpse of their outfits when they got home, but the two flatly refused.

"You'll get a chance to see your beloved Sango in a ravishing dress tonight," Kagome stated calmly.

Out of nowhere, a cell phone case made contact with Kagome's head lightly.

"Oh sorry," Sango smirked. "It slipped."

Kagome just laughed and the two girls giggled together. Miroku just rolled his eyes at the two girls laughing and being oblivious to the world around them.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Kagome!" Miroku called from the bottom of the stairs. "Inuyasha just called and he said that he would meet up with us at the club."

"Ok then!" Kagome yelled back. She was busy running around her room trying to find her other shoe.

After their shopping at the mall, the two girls had just hung out at Kagome's house until it was time for them to get ready to go. Sango had been helping her look for her shoe and they finally found it lying underneath Kagome's bed.

Kagome had curled the tips of her hair slightly and wore clear lip gloss. The only jewelry that she wore was the silver chain with a sakura pendant that Inuyasha had given her on the day of their one year anniversary. The heels that she wore were strapped around her ankles and they accentuated her slim legs.

Sango's hair was tied into a ponytail with a few strands of hair slipping out and framing her face prettily. She had pink lip gloss and pink eyeliner on.

The two finally looked into the mirror and felt ready enough to walk downstairs to where Miroku was waiting. He had been ready about an hour ago and he was dressed in black dress pants and a navy blue dress shirt with the first two buttons unbuttoned.

His breath caught in his throat when he saw Sango descending the stairs. He had always had a crush on the girl, but she had never really wanted a serious relationship with him, blaming him for his perverted ways.

"You look lovely, Sango," Miroku complimented the girl. Sango blushed a dark shade of red.

Kagome wanted to relieve the tension for Sango so she pretended to pout. "And what about me Miroku? Are you saying that Sango is the only lovely one around here?"

Miroku laughed at his sister's antics. "Yeah, she's the only pretty one here. You on the other hand…look…slightly on the ugly side."

"I guess it runs in the family, right Miroku?" Kagome teased back.

"Hey!" Miroku protested. "I'm just teasing. Besides, I think I'll let Inuyasha decide how lovely you are tonight."

It was Kagome's turn to blush at the comment. She just punched Miroku lightly in the arm before they headed out to Miroku's car.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The drive to Club Bleu was a silent one. When Miroku and the girls arrived they entered the building and were immediately thrown back by the loud music. It was actually Kagome's and Sango's first time at a club.

Kagome quickly scanned the crowd to find Inuyasha and she saw him sitting at a table near the corner. Unfortunately, her eyes also noticed that a raven-haired girl was also sitting next to Inuyasha. Kikyo was holding onto Inuyasha's arm and they were sitting closer than necessary.

Kagome felt her blood boil at the sight of Kikyo so close to her Inuyasha, but she calmed herself down and led the others over to where Inuyasha was sitting.

Inuyasha caught the scent of sakura blossoms and looked up to see Kagome, Sango, and Miroku approaching.

He was about to stand up and hug Kagome when he felt Kikyo's hold on his arm.

"Hey Inuyasha," Miroku greeted Inuyasha. He simply nodded to Kikyo.

"Hi Inuyasha," Kagome said as she went to sit next to her boyfriend. She gave him a quick kiss on his lips before raising a questioning brow at Kikyo.

"Kikyo wanted to come along with us," Inuyasha explained. "It doesn't bother you does it?"

"No," Kagome said quietly. 'Calm down,' she told herself. 'She's only holding onto his arm. She wouldn't make any other move closer to him.'

Kikyo looked over at Kagome and smirked mentally at her. 'Oh I can't wait to see her face.'

Please Read & Review!

I'm so sorry for such a long wait before the update. I've had a major writer's block and I've been busy lately. But I'll try and write faster from now on.

I have never been in Forever 21 so I really don't know how the store is organized and if there are racks for clothing. Sorry if I described it incorrectly. Club Bleu actually exists except that they play Vietnamese music there and is located in Little Saigon. However, in this story, Club Bleu is just an ordinary club.

Thank you to those who have reviewed in the past and have patiently waited for me to update.
