Chapter 6 - One of those off nights
"Why don't you watch where you're going!" Kagome's voice replied strongly. She already had 3 'special' cokes and was only half-way out of it. Most of her was sober, but the rum gave her no fear to speak her mind towards Inuyasha.
"Well, well, well. . . if it isn't Kagome Higurashi. First we meet up at Miroku's place. . . and now here. Are you following me?" Inuyasha asked in a mocking tone. Kagome grunted as she placed her hands on her hips.
"You wish I was, you jerk. For your information, I came here with Sango to have a girl's night out." Kagome rolled her eyes. "And besides, why would I want to follow a guy with long hair and purple eyes." she added as she gave a smirk.
Inuyasha gave her an evil glare. "Why don't you just admit that you adore me and the ground that I walk on? It's obvious you do since most of your movies are co-starred with yours truly."
"Adore what? You, Inuyasha? Why would I want to adore such a ground that has been walked on by a fake, conceited, meat-headed actor like yourself? And sooner or later, sooner is what I am hoping for, my movies will not concern or have anything to do with the likes of you!" Kagome replied scornfully as she poked his chest when she strongly said the word 'you' at the end of her sentence. A vein popped onto Inuyasha's forehead and his hand clenched into a fist.
'Don't hit a girl. . . don't hit a girl. . . don't hit a girl. . . ' Inuyasha chanted to himself.
"Aww. . . is widdle-Inuyasha-yasha mad at widdle old me?" Kagome mocked as she gave a baby-pout. Inuyasha looked at her with disgust and unclenched his hands.
"Why don't you just go back to your little girl-friend and talk with her? Can't you take the hint that I don't want to socialize with you any longer? It's people like you that irritate me! Stick to one profession and stop trying to be some big-shot and handle two careers at once! And for you to call me fake?! Look who's talking, Ms. Boob-job!" Inuyasha's violet eyes flared with anger at the girl, but the alcohol gave her no fear. She kept her confident stance and gritted her teeth.
"I would be with her right now if I could find her! And you're acting as if I want to talk with you! You were the one that bumped into me in the first place, you moron! And it's people like you that aggravate me! Thinking that just because you're more experienced in something that you're all of a sudden so damn superior! And to end this conversation. . ." Kagome took a step back and clutched her breasts with her hands.
". . . these are 100% real!" she finished and walked away angrily towards the bar. Inuyasha was taken aback by her actions and watched her walk off till the crowd of dancers blocked his view. He grinded his teeth and became too pissed off to continue looking for Miroku. He stomped his foot and began walking towards the bar.
Sango was back up on the dance floor after her first alcoholic beverage and was dancing with this total stranger. He was a tall guy with spiked hair. He wore a shirt that said 'Bandit' on it and a picture of a skull underneath. He wore black and white wristbands on both of his wrists and a pair of dark blue denim jeans. Like Sango, he also could dance very well. Suddenly, her dancer turned around, nodded and waved good-bye to Sango. She waved back confused, but she kept dancing. She stopped when she caught view of her new dance partner. Miroku.
He stood in front of her, smiling. Though Sango found him and his smile charming and enchanting, she still knew what happened in that perverted mind of his. She stared at him for a few seconds, and did not return him with a smile. Sango backed up a few steps before turning and walking away. Miroku's smile faded as he saw that she was trying to avoid him. Before she became out of sight, Miroku walked after her and gently grabbed her elbow.
"What interests you, Mr. Houshi?" she asked irritatingly as she gave up on trying to run away. Miroku sighed as she addressed him so formally.
"It's Miroku, Lady Sango. And my intentions for approaching you are all descent, trust me." Miroku nodded as he looked into her eyes. Sango raised one of her eye brows.
"Descent? What is your definition of descent? One grope per woman?" Sango asked mockingly. Miroku took a step back and became hesitant if he should try to talk to her once more. Sango scoffed and shook her head as she began to walk away again. Miroku sighed to himself as he walked after her. This time, he walked pass by her and gently grabbed her hand as he led her to less crowded area.
"What are you doing?" she asked him as they stopped in the corner. She clenched her hands into fists and held them up towards his face. Sweat drops slid down Miroku's face as he backed away a bit.
"Listen, all I want to do is talk. I've just been thinking. . . and I've realized that we sort of started off on the wrong foot. . ." Miroku said shyly. Sango dropped her fists slowly at his sincerity. She kept them tightened in case he decided on the attempt to grab her ass as usual.
"Uh huh. . . " she said as she nodded. Miroku gulped once more as he tried to finish his sentence.
". . And I just wanna start over. . . How 'bout it?" he scratched the back of his head with his hand nervously. Sango sighed as she unclenched her fists and smiled. Miroku gulped at her smile. . . ever since the day he met her there was something about it that made him so weak in the knees.
"Okay, Mr. Houshi. . . we can start over." she said as she gave another small smile. Miroku's face lit up and a smile was shown on his face.
". . . but tonight, if you ever grope me just once. . . I'll reconsider this and go back to how we were before, got it?" Sango assured as she looked at him sternly. Miroku nodded his head to show that he understood. Sango smiled at him.
'That smile. . . ' Miroku thought to himself in a daze.
"What are you doing here anyhow, Mr. Houshi?" Sango asked as she sat down on an empty couch.
"Please, just call me Miroku. And I'm here for business." he replied nonchalantly as he sat on the table chair next to the couch.
"Oh, forgive me. . . Mi-Miroku. What sort of business?"
"A bribe to Inuyasha so that he'd agree to be in my movie."
"What did you bribe him with?"
"All the drinks he wanted and an ever-lasting supply of ramen during screening." Sango and Miroku laughed. She remembered the times when Inuyasha whined for ramen during the breaks. Suddenly, she gasped and made Miroku nearly fall out of his chair.
"Wha-wha-what is it, Sango?" he asked as he regained his balance. Sango shot up from the couch and began to walk towards the dance floor. He grabbed her elbow and brought her to him.
"What is it?" he asked worriedly.
"If Inuyasha is here. . . and I came here with Kagome. . . then they're bound to run into each other!" Sango replied. Miroku shrugged as he was confused.
"So?" he said.
"In case you haven't noticed, Mr. Housh– I mean, Miroku. . . Kagome plus Inuyasha equals a big no-no!" Sango shook her head as she looked through the crowd of people. Miroku hit his forehead with his hand. How could he have forgotten? Of course those two were having problems! They were the reason why he was going to have a pretty large bill to pay for ramen and alcohol.
"Do you see them anywhere, Sango?" Miroku asked as he tried looking above the crowd's heads. Sango shook her head with a 'no' and began to bite her lip. Miroku looked at her and smiled. She looked cute when she was nervous. She caught him staring at the corner of her eye and she turned to face him.
"What're you smiling at? Have you found them?" she asked with a tone of hope. Miroku frowned when his reply was 'no'.
Inuyasha sat at the bar stool with a shot glass in his hand. He quickly gulped it down and gestured the bartender for another one. This would be his 7th glass, and the bartender became hesitant if he should hand him one more. Unfortunately, he was a rookie and was too frightened to disagree with Inuyasha's wishes. As he passed him his 8th glass, another customer appeared at the corner of the long table. He gasped as he saw who it was. Kagome Higurashi.
"Bartender! I'll have a margarita and a buzzed coke. With a straw, please." she ordered sweetly. The bartender nodded as he couldn't believe his eyes. He was about to serve Kagome Higurashi! What a great night this turned out to be! He just had to call his friends and tell them the great news.
As he slid her the drinks she ordered, he quickly got his co-worker to stand-in for him and went outside for a few minutes. He dialed his friend's number on his cell phone and immediately told him who was at the club. His friend had been just as shocked and repeated the news out loud. Unfortunately, his friend was in the city and there were several paparazzi taking breaks. They all began to eavesdrop on his good news and quickly ran to their vans and looked through phone books for this 'Wolf's Den'.
Kagome sipped on her margarita and shut her eyes tightly at the bitterness. She looked to the far left and saw a certain guy with long black hair sitting at the table with several empty shot glasses in front of him. She smirked to herself as she picked up her two drinks and walked towards him.
"Why, hello there Inuyasha." Kagome said as she tried to give a 'sexy' tone to her voice. She couldn't hold back her giggling at the confused face of Inuyasha as he looked at her. He, too, was a little out of it, but was still sober enough to know what he was doing.
(A/N: Wow. . . strong for 8 shots, eh? Well. . . I wouldn't know. . . I don't drink. . .keke.)
"What do you want, Kagome?" he asked bitterly as he turned back around and found three more shot glasses in front of him. He grabbed one and gulped it down with ease. Suddenly, he felt Kagome's arm around his neck and she was sitting on the bar table.
"I want world peace. . . an itty-bitty-fat cat. . . I want to be an astronaunt. . . I want to fly!" Kagome began to laugh hysterically as she flung her arms into the air and flapped them like a bird. Inuyasha couldn't help himself, but laugh at her actions. He gulped down the second shot glass, as he shook his head for the instant feeling of dizziness.
". . . I want Sango to be my permanent manager. . . I want to make more movies. . . " Kagome's voice went on and on, and Inuyasha kept on shaking his head as her voice began to blur. Finally, after a few more shakes, he was a BIT back to normal.
". . . I want to get married. . . and. . . " Kagome said as the tapped her head with her fingers. She crossed her arms across her chest as she sat on the bar table and thought to herself. Inuyasha looked at her and could've sworn that he saw a duplicate. He blinked several times and sighed with relief as there appeared to be only one Kagome in front of him.
"Do you ever stop yapping?" Inuyasha asked mockingly as he gulped his very last shot glass. Kagome looked at him and hopped off the table. She placed her hands upon her hips and tapped him. Inuyasha spun around in his chair, Kagome had a triumphant smirk across her lips.
". . . I wanna dance!" she finally said as she grabbed his hand and brought him to the dance floor. Inuyasha's head began to pound, but he ignored it anyway. Kagome's force guided him to a dance spot and he stared at her as she danced in front of him.
"Are you just going to stand there like an old fish? Come on, Inuyasha! Dance!" Kagome said perkily as she grabbed both of his hands and swayed left and right over and over again. Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders and began dancing with her. The two laughed together and bobbed their heads.
One of the lights in the club that focused on a pair of dancers landed on them. The two had noticed that it got brighter where they were and began to look up at the source of the light.
"Look, Inuyasha! It hurts!" Kagome laughed crazily as she pointed to the light.
"It does! My eyes burn! We must blink!" Inuyasha laughed crazily also as they both looked at the light and blinked their eyes every 5 seconds.
"Hey! Blink! Sounds like ink!" Inuyasha said randomly as he turned to face Kagome. Kagome opened her mouth in shock and nodded in agreement.
"That also sounds like pink! Think! Sink! Tink!" Kagome responded. The two grabbed each others' hands again and swayed left to right as they recited things that rhymed with 'blink'. Suddenly, the dance floor was cut by many men and women that clutched something in their hands. They all surrounded Inuyasha and Kagome, but they decided to ignore it.
"Ooo! Looky! They have lights in their boxes! Wait, wait. . . it's gone! There it is again! Looky! That other person has one too! And that one, and that one, and that one. . . " Kagome counted as her and Inuyasha stared at the people surrounding them in amazement.
"Look! And that one has a big black box! With a bigger light! Hello, Mr.! This is my friend, Kagome. Isn't she so pretty? She's sings good too!" Inuyasha waved at the man with the 'big black box' and gently held Kagome's arm as he pointed to her proudly. Kagome gained a few shades of pink on her face as she waved.
"And this is my friend, Inuyasha! His movies are awesome! You have got to check them out!" Kagome pointed to Inuyasha as she stuck her tongue out at the man with the 'big black box'.
Sango and Miroku stopped their search as they saw flashes of light appear in the center of the dance floor.
'Oh no. . . please don't tell me that's where they are.' Sango thought to herself dreadfully.
She grabbed Miroku's arm as she led them to see what the chaos was. Sango gasped in horror as she saw Kagome with Inuyasha in the middle of the circle doing body-builder poses. Miroku also saw what they were doing and instantly began to laugh. Sango slapped the back of his head and reminded him that this could ruin their careers.
"They're drunk! We have got to get them out of there, Mr. Houshi!" Sango said in worry. Miroku winced as she informed him by his last name. No matter how many times he asked her to call him 'Miroku', she seemed to always forget. He sighed as he ignored it and nodded to her.
"Okay. . . first we have to get all of these camera men out of the way." he suggested. Sango nodded as she bit her lip and fidgeted with her fingers. They tried moving inside the circle, but there were just too many paparazzi to budge. Sango cupped her face with her hands as she watched Kagome do the chicken dance, only having Inuyasha followed her moves.
"It's all my fault. . . I shouldn't have given her the buzzed out coke." Sango groaned as she cupped her face with her hands. Miroku pat her back and was tempted to move down lower, but remember Sango's threat.
"Now don't be foolish. . . it's not your fault at all. It's nobody's fault. . . don't go on blaming yourself. Let's just focus on getting them out of that snake pit, okay?" he said as he smiled at her. Sango looked up at him and returned him with a small grin.
Suddenly, there was a fight in one of the corners of the bar. Two men were growling at each other and throwing punches. Ayame ran towards the commotion that had been caused in her bar and instantly tried to break it up. The paparazzi and camera men instantly ran towards the problem and began to face their cameras else where.
Sango and Miroku looked at the new attention and watched a preview of the bar fight. They winced at the sound of hard punches and bones cracking. Then, they realized that this was a perfect time to catch Kagome and Inuyasha. But when they turned back to look for the two. . . they were gone.
"Oh shit! Miroku! Where'd they go?!" Sango gasped in shock as she found them no where. Miroku's eyebrows formed together as he gave the bar a quick search. He became worried because he didn't have a slight clue to where they could be either.
"First day on the job and I lose her! Shit, shit, shit! Where could she be?! What if she gets hurt?!" Sango panicked with several questions and Miroku pitied her. Suddenly, Sango's voice faded as her eyes rolled back and she fainted. Before she could fall on the floor, she was caught by Miroku's arms.
"Damn it. . .now that they're outside, they could be anywhere." Miroku picked up Sango bridal style and her head leaned gently on his shoulder. His heart began pounding and he gulped when Sango's light breath caressed his neck.
'At least she's at rest now. I've got to bring her somewhere safer.' Miroku thought to himself as he exited the club. He called for a cab and minutes later it arrived.
"Why don't you watch where you're going!" Kagome's voice replied strongly. She already had 3 'special' cokes and was only half-way out of it. Most of her was sober, but the rum gave her no fear to speak her mind towards Inuyasha.
"Well, well, well. . . if it isn't Kagome Higurashi. First we meet up at Miroku's place. . . and now here. Are you following me?" Inuyasha asked in a mocking tone. Kagome grunted as she placed her hands on her hips.

"Adore what? You, Inuyasha? Why would I want to adore such a ground that has been walked on by a fake, conceited, meat-headed actor like yourself? And sooner or later, sooner is what I am hoping for, my movies will not concern or have anything to do with the likes of you!" Kagome replied scornfully as she poked his chest when she strongly said the word 'you' at the end of her sentence. A vein popped onto Inuyasha's forehead and his hand clenched into a fist.
'Don't hit a girl. . . don't hit a girl. . . don't hit a girl. . . ' Inuyasha chanted to himself.
"Aww. . . is widdle-Inuyasha-yasha mad at widdle old me?" Kagome mocked as she gave a baby-pout. Inuyasha looked at her with disgust and unclenched his hands.

Sango and Miroku looked at the new attention and watched a preview of the bar fight. They winced at the sound of hard punches and bones cracking. Then, they realized that this was a perfect time to catch Kagome and Inuyasha. But when they turned back to look for the two. . . they were gone.
"Oh shit! Miroku! Where'd they go?!" Sango gasped in shock as she found them no where. Miroku's eyebrows formed together as he gave the bar a quick search. He became worried because he didn't have a slight clue to where they could be either.
"First day on the job and I lose her! Shit, shit, shit! Where could she be?! What if she gets hurt?!" Sango panicked with several questions and Miroku pitied her. Suddenly, Sango's voice faded as her eyes rolled back and she fainted. Before she could fall on the floor, she was caught by Miroku's arms.
"Damn it. . .now that they're outside, they could be anywhere." Miroku picked up Sango bridal style and her head leaned gently on his shoulder. His heart began pounding and he gulped when Sango's light breath caressed his neck.
'At least she's at rest now. I've got to bring her somewhere safer.' Miroku thought to himself as he exited the club. He called for a cab and minutes later it arrived.
