Starting Out Fresh

Chapter 11: A Special Night

On Tuesday, everyone began to feel better, but Kagome decided not to go to school. She just didn't feel like it, so she acted like she was sick in front of her mom. Of course, her mom bought it. Once Sota, Grandpa and Mom were there, she stopped acting. Besides, why would she need to act if school was over?

"Since you're feeling better Kagome, why don't you and Sesshomaru go out for tonight?" Kagome's Mom asked her. Kagome looked at her.

"What's the catch, Mom?"

"Nothing! Its just that since you've been here, you guys have acted like sick babysitters instead of acting like an engaged couple!" Kagome thought about it for a while. It could be a nice thing for both of us………………………… Kagome thought.

"Wait a second, mom! How am I supposed to get a dress how is Sesshy going to get a tux and how are we supposed to go to a fancy restaurant if Sesshy doesn't have any money?" Kagome asked her. Kagome's mom smiled.

"All taken care of. I got you a dress, Sesshomaru a tux and you guys can use my credit card. Oh by the way, I have reserved a limo and I have also have a reservation for you both at 'The Jewel'. Tell Sesshomaru and hurry because you have two hours to get ready!" Kagome's mom said. Kagome smiled and hugged her mom.

"You are the best!" Kagome squealed. She ran upstairs to go tell Sesshomaru the news. "Sesshy! You and I are going out to dinner by ourselves. We have a limo and you have a tux. I have it right here with me." Kagome said. She handed it to him. "It also has the pants with it." She smiled and she left a confused Sesshomaru to himself.

"Kagome! Come on, the limo's going to come any minute now!" KAgome's mother yelled. Sesshomaru was attemting to put on his tie. Kagome heard her mom and put on a little more makup. Sesshomaru heard the door open and looked up to see Kagome and his jaw dropped.Kagome had on a black halter dress and black high heel shoes with straps up to her ankle. She had on dark navy blue eyeshadow on, and blood red lipstick. Her hair was in a bun held by elegant chopsticks with pearls at the end of them. "You look beautiful..." Sesshomaru said. Kagome's mother nodded in agreement. Suddenly they heard a honk.

"Well, that's the limo!Have a good time you guys! Opps, take this credit card with you. Don't worrywe'll be fine here!" KAgome mo rushed themout the door.

"Be careful Kagome! That could be a demon." Sesshomaru said

"No, that's the limo. It's a car, something we use for transportation. It's not a demon." Kagome said.Sesshomaru nodded in understanding but was still suspicious. "By the way, you look gorgeous!" Kagome said as the went into the limo.

"Where are we going anyway. You're mom said we were going to 'TheJewel.' We're going inside a jewel?" Sesshomaru asked. Kagome shook her head.

"No, 'The Jewel' is a restuarant. At a restaurant you pay for food to eat there made by chefs." Kagome explained. Soon after that they finally reached the restaurant. Kagome and Sesshomaru stepped out of the limo and into the restuarant. Kagome walked up to the head waiter. "Excuse me, we had a reservation for two."

"Name?" the waiter asked as if he was bored out of his mind. Kagome surpressed the urge to scream at him and humiliate him in fromt of everyone.

"Higarashi." she answered calmly. The waiter looked at his list and looked up at them.

"Follow me." the waiter lead them upstairs, right next to the large window with a beautiful view of the large moon. Sesshomaru and Kagome sat down while a waitress came up to them. She was tall and had long blond hair with blue eyes sparkling with life with a smile that any toothpaste commercial would want to have.

"Two cokes, please." The waitress wrote it down and quickly left them. Kagome heard Sesshomaru's stomach growl, hoping to have some food... and soon. Kagome smiled at him. "Hungry, huh?" she said.

"How did you know?"

"By the way your stomach growled, I could hear it from a mile away!" Kagome said. The waitress came back with two glasses of Coke.

"Are you ready to order?" she said in a cheery tone.

"Two ceasar salads with French dressing, and one large powl of Seafood speghetti with alfredo sauce."

"Why don't you let handsome order?" the waitress said slyly.

"No, it's alright. She knows what I like." he repliedin his deep voice. The waitress looked like she wanted to faint right there, but instead wrote down the orders and left them. A little while after the waitress came by with the salads and gave Seshomarua furtive smile before she left them. Sesshomaru and Kagome both rollled their eyes at the same time and laughed because of that.

"Kami, she's annoying!" Kagome said to Seshsomaru. He nodded in agreement.

"She reminds me of all those female demons trying to win me over." Kagome laughed.

"But what she doesn't know is that I'm in love with you." Sesshomaru said rubbing the large diamond on her engagement ring. Ever since he gave it to her, she wore it all the time.

"I'm in love with you too." Kagome pecked him lightly on the lips and he smiled.

"See, you look hot when you smile." Kagome said , smirking at him. Soon after they finished their salads the waitress came a put down their bowl of pasta. It seemed as if the waitress saw her engagement ring because she growled and gave Kagome a nasty look before she left.

"Well, let's dig in!" Kagome said. "But don't eat like a barbarian." Kagome said.

"What makes you think i'll eat like a barbarian?"

"Because your brother does."

"What makes you think I'm him?" Kagome shrugged and started to eat with Sesshomaru. At one point, a strand of pasta there was picked up by both of them and at the middle KAgome decided to kiss him. Sesshomaru caught on and returned the kiss making it deeper, until he broke it.

"Well, I liked the kiss, even if it was the pasta's fault." Sesshomaru said. Kagome punched him playfully and he smirked.

"I hoped you liked it Sesshy!" Kagome said as they got out of the limo. I hope mom doesn't get upset that i almost spent five hundred yen on dinner. Well, at least I didn't tip the waitress. She was giving me a bunch of dirty looks!

"Well, surprisingly,yes. And that was because I was with you." Sesshomaru embraced her and began to kiss her neck. Kagome shuddered. She never had him do this before.

"Come on, Sesshy. Let's go inside." Kagome said. Sesshomaru nodded in agreement and they were almost tackled down by a certain Rin and Shippo at eleven at night. Soon they both went to bed, not knowing what the next day would bring.
