Chapter 12- staring contest
:three days after the Nibori, Kuri, and Kyoto incident and the day of the club party:
"Inuyasha do you really have to sit there like that. You look like a lost puppy." Kagome giggled while sitting in her new room with Sango. "If someone were to come into your room and I'm not sitting here who else is going to protect you, wench?" he grumbled, obviously annoyed at the lost puppy remark.
"Well Inuyasha, first off its been days since anything bad and mysterious has happened. Second we are all here in this house so if some weirdo had found a way to jump into Kagome's second floor bedroom window, I'm sure someone, referring to me since I AM right here, would be able to help her. And you Mr. Super Sensitive Doggy Ears would most defiantly hear someone come into Kagome's room and would be up here in a matter of seconds."
Inuyasha grumbled some incoherent words, that the two girls thought it better that they hadn't heard, before standing and walking into the living room. Where he then sat down on the floor and watched Shippou kick Miroku's butt in one of his new PS2 fighting games.
After only about five minutes the young boy had beaten the monk/drummer once again. "You know Shippou, if you fought half as good as you do in that game of yours, you might stand a chance against me."
Not catching the sarcasm in the aggravated hanyou's tone the young kit jumped up landing on Inuyasha's shoulder, and jumping around like a overly hyper… kitsune.
"Oi! Watch the ears!" 'I need those..' he thought as he glanced back at the closed door of Kagome's room.
:kagome's room:
"Finally! I thought he would never leave!" the miko giggled as she leaned back against the backboard of her bed. "Yes so about this party.. at the club.. it wasn't really my idea. And I have no idea what im supposed to wear to those sort of things." Sango sighed
"Wait, I can help with the out fit, but what do you mean it wasn't your idea? Who planned this all out then?" kagome asked, obviously shocked at the thought that Miroku or Inuyasha would have planned something like this on their own.
"Well me and the boys all helped, but it was actually Sesshoumaru's idea." Seeing the shock on her friends face Sango added. "Something about using this as an excuse to welcome you into the house with us, and to meet up with some old friends. He's so different from the Sesshoumaru in the past, sometimes I still get surprised."
"What do you mean. He didn't seem so different last time I saw him." "Well I wouldn't suspect you would. You weren't here when we first met him. Inuyasha was ready to hack him into pieces for offering us a home." Sango laughed remembering her friends actions towards his brothers offerings.
"Inuyasha hadn't expected to meet up with him here. He probably didn't even think he was still alive. But it was quite entertaining to watch the two fight that day. Inuyasha charging and yelling about the house being some sort of trap. And Sesshoumaru blocking each hit reassuring us that it was not a trap but a welcoming gift… Now, about my outfit."
"AH! Yes. Well first what were you thinking of wearing and I'll work around that." Kagome asked as she scooted forward towards her friend and sat straight, waiting for a response.
"Well I was thinking maybe just a pair of jeans and a tight t-shirt." "Well.. that would be nice. For an everyday affair. This is a party! You want to look stunning!" "A-alright.. so what do you have in mind."
Kagome smiled as she stood and grabbed her friends hands dragging her to her closet.
:In the living room:
"So you figure out what your going to wear yet?" "Nope, why you did?" "Yupp." Inuyasha did a double take at the monk who was still sitting on the floor playing games with the kitsune.
"You did!" "Yes is it really so hard to believe that I can think ahead of time and prepare things?" "Well I always knew you had a brain.. you don't always use it but its up there. But to think that you actually used it before you needed to.. well its just a bit much to expect from you lech."
"Im hurt Inuyasha. Why is it that I am incapable of preparing myself for future events but you are able to do whatever you wish?" "Well I don't spend my days playing games and staring at Sango's body. So that leaves plenty of time for thinking." The hanyou stated as he lifted his head in a proud stance.
"No of course you wouldn't dare look at Sango's body like that.. but I cant say that you don't think about certain 'games' during that large amount of free time you have." "Miroku.. I'm going to give you five seconds to give me a good reason why I shouldn't pummel you right now. One.. two... three"
"I'll help you pick out an outfit for the club!" "Keh! I can do that myself, lech. I said a good reason." "Well of course you can pick out an outfit for yourself, but can you pick out an outfit that will make the ladies drool. I'll arrange an outfit that will make you look so stunning that a certain someone wont be able to resist you."
Inuyasha contemplated his options which consisted of: Pummel the monk, let the monk pick out the outfit and let him get away with his earlier comment, or let the monk pick out the outfit then pummel him... defiantly going with the last option.
"Alright. You have yourself a deal. If I'm satisfied with your work I wont hit you. But if I think I could have done better I get to do whatever I want." Miroku nodded his head cautiously and walked into Inuyasha's room. Both leaving the kit to decide for himself when playtime was over and that was never a good idea.
:At the Club:
"Sango! There you are! Wow! I did good huh?" Sango nodded as her face flushed in slight embarrassment at Kagome's outburst. "I've been trying to get a hold on the guys but I cant find them anywhere. Miroku did say that they would be leaving in five minutes, didn't he?" Kagome asked worriedly.
"Yes, and if I know them like I do im pretty sure there waiting for Shippou to get himself ready and then trying to find the keys that Inuyasha put in his pocket, and then trying to find there sunglasses, and then trying to figure out who gets front passenger seat and who's driving."
Kagome laughed at her friends explanation, but when she looked back at Sango, who had her mouth wide open and eyes practically bulging out, she immediately stopped. Turning to look in the direction Sango was gaping at. As soon as her eyes hit the area near the hallway, where everyone was parting to let the three males in, her eyes bulged and her mouth dropped open as well.
"Sango.. I really doubt that they were looking for the keys in Inuyasha's pocket.." "Yea.. me too."
:the three males:
"Why are they staring like that.. I'm not some freak that escaped from the asylum that's still wearing his straight jacket, white pants, muzzle, and walking around barefoot and hairy." "Quite the contrary my friend. You are the man she's known for years, the man she's learned to love and care for. You're the guy who came five hundred years from the past just to be with her. You're the one who came up with the idea for her to come and move in with us. And you're the guy who just spent over a half hour getting ready to have her stare at you like this, and now your questioning me about it!" Miroku laughed as he walked forward toward the obviously stunned girls.
"Hello my lovely Sango. Might I say you look absolutely gorgeous right now." "Th-thank you Houshi-sama." Sango stated nervously as she looked over her outfit.
Her dark blue vintage jeans fit her curves perfectly, and the black tube-top she wore accentuated her beautifully. Along with the many frayed spots in the jeans was a chain hanging on the side of her hip. And the black arm strap Kagome had made out of part of an old frilly, lacy shirt, that she would absolutely never wear, matched perfectly with the black belt she wore.
She had to admit it was a little unnerving at first. She wasn't used to wearing so much articles of clothing. Usually she just wore a pair of regular jeans and a loose or tight t-shirt depending on her activities that day.
But what had made her most uncomfortable was the make up Kagome had insisted on putting on her.
"But I just don't understand why I need to wear that." She said while pointing to the black pencil Kagome was holding, along with the tube of black liquid on a round brush, the powder stuff that went above her eyes, the sticky pink tinted jell, and the really bad smelling deep blue liquid for nails.
"Trust me, Miroku will love it! He already cant keep his hands.. hand off you." Kagome giggled.
"Fine but can you do me a favor?" "Depends.. whats the favor?" Kagome asked suspiciously "Close that little bottle of blue stuff over there.. I think im going to be sick." Kagome laughed at her friends sensitive sense of smell. "Alright" she agreed closing the bottle and setting to work on her friend.
That was hours ago, she was now used to the tingly feeling in her eyes from the black pencil. The thickness of her eyelashes from the black tube and brush. The way her lips slid across each other because of the clear liquid Kagome kept telling her to re-apply every time she had something to drink.
And the affects this look had on Miroku was defiantly worth it.
"And Kagome, you too are looking lovely as ever." Miroku pointed out since his hanyou friend was obviously to busy gawking at Kagome to compliment her.
"Huh? Oh, thanks Miroku. You look.. umm.. good too." Kagome said while shifting uncomfortably under Inuyasha's stare. 'maybe I shouldn't have worn this..' she thought checking her outfit over as well.
She wore low-cut blue jeans with a black belt that had a chain on the side. A red tank top with off the shoulder, shear, straps. She, like Sango, had an arm strap on as well. She wore dangling ear-rings that had three diamonds at the end of each chain. A black choker necklace with a rhinestone star in the center. Her hair was half up in a clip with two pieces still hanging on the sides of her face, parts of her hair was curled while the rest was wavy. She had sprayed her hair lightly with some glitter hair spray to go along with the shinny ear-rings.
After another few minutes of gawking at Kagome, Inuyasha finally walked up to her. "You.. uh.. look.. you look.. good." Was all he could choke out. Slightly surprised that he had complimented her and a little disappointed that she only looked 'good' Kagome nodded in response. "Yeah.. so do you."
She said as she studied the hanyous attire.
He wore a black wife-beater, red boxers that stuck out of his black cargo pants. The pants were baggy, just the way he liked them. The shirt was unbelievably tight, but he didn't seem to mind much. The fabric was thin and seemed to give him the much needed air he desired in the crowed club. He wore curve cologne, and it seemed as thought Miroku had convinced him to get a henna-tattoo. On his right shoulder was a small skull. His hair was held back in a pony-tail. All in all the outfit was completely perfect, from the black and red adios, to his white fuzzy ears.
She didn't notice how long she had actually be looking Inuyasha over until a low coughing sound resonated through her mind. The sound brought her attention back to the man standing in front of her, and left her very flushed.
"Glad you like it wench." Inuyasha announced as he crossed his arms and turned his head to face Sango and Miroku. Sango was currently in the same spot Kagome was in.
"Wait.. Miroku? Whats that mark?" "Hmm? Sango whats wrong?" Kagome asked walking over to examine her friend as well. "Look there, you see? Around his left eye.. its a little discolored." "Yes Miroku what happened?" "Uh..." Miroku scratched his head as Inuyasha walked over to the group. "I wasn't satisfied is what happened." he remarked crossing his arms once again while glaring at the monk.
"I don't see why, you saw how she looked at you before. What's to be disappointed about?" "Who said I was disappointed, I just said I wasn't satisfied. As in 'I coulda done better'" "Yea sure you coulda.." "Keh! Come on Kagome.. My brother wants to see you." "Eh! Why?" she asked as he grabbed her wrist gently but firm, and pulled her along after him. Kagome nervously glanced over her shoulder and let out a sigh of relief when she saw Miroku and Sango following them.
'Where's Shippou..' Kagome thought as she noticed the young kit was no longer with them. "Inuyasha.. what happened to Shippou?" "Oh, that runt probably ran off in search of candy or some shit like that.." "Inuyasha!" "Quiet wench, we're almost there."
'Almost where?' she thought as she rounded a corner and walked towards the last door in the hallway.
