(N/A: Sorry if this thing doesn't make sense k? And for the last chapter: Kagome called for Kouga is just because he wasn't there, but Sesshoumaru is. Sorry for not making it clear.pout)

Before Your Love

Chapter 9

Everybody is going to the reunion. And now is that day. Kouga is wearing a plain black business suit; Kagome is wearing a black sparkly to the dark dress that hug her every curve, and has a slit that goes up to her mid-thigh. Her hair is down stunningly, her face is done with just a shiny lip gloss; Sango, wearing a red strapless long dress that come to her knees, her makeup is done with a red eyeshadow, a soft pink blush and a reddish lip gloss; Miroku; wearing a blue business suit. And Kikyou is there too, wearing a white dress that look likes the upper style of Kagome's dress and the lower style from Sango and she has a diamond necklace that goes with it. She has a white eyeshadow and a colorless lip gloss.

Kouga is wearing a scowl on his face knowing who the host is and that he's going to keep an eye on him and Kagome: Barely on Kagome or more? He's just going to stay close to Kagome, just in case. (N/A: Rather possesssive of him, don't you think? LOL).

Kagome and Kouga made it there in Kouga's black sport's car; Sango and Miroku in Miroku's red mustang; Kikyou in her silver BMW. The men escorted their girlfriends in the party as usual but for one: Miroku didn't grope any of them.(N/A: that's a relief!) And Kikyou by herself but happy nonetheless.

While Kikyou was making her way to the crowd, she spotted a man with silver mane, looks like his ex-boyfriend but different in many ways: the way they carry theirself, She's staring at that man for quite some time now, admiring him. Is this the thing that they called love at first sight? Or oh my gosh! I have a crush on this guy and I don't even know him. Kikyou was wondering if that guy has a girlfriend or what but why does she care, right? She shook her head and continued to the bar, wanting to have a drink first before anything else. She didn't see the figure that was following her. When she sat down on one of the seats in front of the bar, someone did, too beside her. She took a glance to that person and she froze. It's that guy!

Earlier he caught her staring at him and thinks that she got the hots for him so he followed her to the bar. When he felt that someone is looking at him, he found the person sitting beside him is quite charming, having those beautiful luscious lips and those sparkly eyes staring at him. He couldn't believe this, she is beautiful, barely he sees such beauty. His father just forced him to go to this party and find some lady that is worth dying for, he didn't want to do anything with this party, but now he is glad that he came.

"Hi," he said, "I'm Inuyasha."

"Hi," she replied slightly blushing, "I'm Kikyou."

"Can I have this dance?" Inuyasha asked putting his hand out to her.

"Sure," Kikyou took his hand and goes to the dance floor.

It is a slow song and that made her slightly nervous. She placed her arms around his neck and he put his arms around her waist and pulled her close to him. Kikyou thinks that he is being so forward to her but said nothing nonetheless and secretly enjoying him being close to her. She never felt this way about Sesshoumaru, being safe in a man's arms. She leaned her head oh his chest and Inuyasha smirked at this.

"So," Inuyasha said issuing a conversation, "why haven't I seen you here before?"

"Probably because I haven't seen you here before," Kikyou replied.

'I like this girl,' Inuyasha thought.

"So where do you live?" Inuyasha asked, out of curiosity.

"Well, just around the corner."

"Really?" Inuyasha is getting excite now.

"Yeah, how about you?" Kikyou asked.

"Pretty much here."

"What do you mean, here?" That got her attention and looked up to him. He is a good 6'0 tall, and she's just 5'5. Wow, he's a head taller.

"Well, this is my father's mansion, isn't it cool?"

"Wow, you really live here? Oh gosh."

"Yeah, but my older brother is hosting this party, he just want to see some old friends, I guess."

Kikyou was stunned. He's Sesshoumaru's brother. That's why they so looked alike.

"Oh, I never heard of you before, I don't even know the he have a brother. That's new."

"We never was close brothers to begin with and we never talked about each other in other's company."

"Oh that's why, he never talked about his family to me when we were going out." Ooooops she's not suppose to say that.

"What? You're his ex? Wow, why did he dumped you?" Inuyasha whispered with anger.

"Well it was mainly my fault, but I don't want to talk about it right now." Kikyou whispered back.

"Well, let's just enjoy the dance."

'I definitely want to see Kikyou again.'

"I want to see you again," Inuyasha voiced out of the blue.

"Me too," Kikyou said giving him her card.

Inuyasha smiled at her. This is going to be good.

MEANWHILE...

Kouga and Kagome is currently dancing on the dance floor and didn't see the jealous Sesshoumaru watching them. Sesshoumaru left before because he was hear-broken. He can't watch them enjoy their life together while his life is a mess, that's why. Then he met Kagura on the way and realized that he can move on with another. But Kagura is a little exaggerated.

"Sesshy, come on, let's dance," Kagura said beside him, dragging him on the dance floor beside Kagome and Kouga.

Kagome was a little startled when some people danced beside them and saw hint of silver hair. Then it hit her. Sesshoumaru...

Kouga felt her stiffen, and asked her is she's okay and she said she is. Then he saw Sesshoumaru and some girl dancing beside them. Maybe that's his girlfriend, he thought.

"Do you want to get a drink?" Kouga asked wanting her to be away from Sesshoumaru as much as possible.

"Sure."

They went to the bar and didn't see the glare that Sesshouamaru gave Kouga. Sesshoumaru was happy to dance beside Kagome, but will be more happy if he is the one dancing with Kagome, of course.
