This Chapter is Dedicated to all of the chicks out there like myself who can't help but be sappy romance lovers! Hee. Enjoy!

Chapter 16- Nothing says I love you like a CARNIVAL!

"Four adults please." Koga said, while slipping a twenty-dollar bill under the window.

Kagome was absolutely giddy. When she was younger, she always wanted to spend a date at the carnival, and ride rides, play games with a guy. But she always had to spend that time with her family when and IF they ever did go to carnivals.

"Oh my gosh lets eat first! No wait then we couldn't ride anything. Ok lets play games first! But no, then we'd run out of money for food...Lets..." Kagome was interrupted.

"Hold on Kagome!" Inuyasha laughed. "We'll be here for a while, slow down!"

Koga and Ayame nodded, grins on their faces. Kagome shrank back a little with a small 'oh', but she didn't hide her excitement.

"Oh look! One of those cheesy prediction games! I'll win you something!" Inuyasha said.

Kagome turned and looked at where Inuyasha's attention was. It was one of those rip-off games, where the person puts three pictures under a black cloth, and you have to find out which picture is being asked for to get a prize. Kagome shook her head at Inuyasha, trying to tell him that it wasn't a good idea, but of course, he was already slapping two dollars onto the counter.

Kagome sighed and followed him, as she watched Koga and Ayame head off in a different direction.

When she caught up to Inuyasha, she found him sitting on a stool, his face in close concentration, on which picture to pick.

"Ok sir, which do you think is the picture of Mona Lisa?" the vender asked.

Inuyasha's face was still scrunched in concentration. Kagome sighed.

"Inuyasha, I really don't think you should..."

"Shh, I think I know which one it is!" he said.

Kagome rolled her eyes.

-

"So what do you want to do first?" Koga asked.

Ayame looked around. She wasn't exactly used to theses kinds of dates, so she wasn't sure on what to do. She blushed as Koga slid an arm around her waist. But her blush went away when she spotted someone that she really did not want to see. With a small gasp, she buried her face into Koga's shirt.

"That happy to be here with me?" Koga joked.

Ayame buried her face further into his shirt in reply.

"Ayame? What's wrong with you?" he asked.

"I thought that was you! I could spot those red locks anywhere!" a male voice said from behind them.

"Oh no..." Ayame muttered and clung tighter to Koga. Koga looked at the tall man.

"Who are you?" Koga asked.

Suddenly Ayame started yanking him in another direction, but Koga was confused. It was obvious that she didn't want to see him. Probably an old boyfriend, but why was the guy so interested?

"Oh come on Ayame, don't tell me you already moved on. I'm not so surprised."

Ayame stopped and turned around. She muttered a 'shut up' and the man laughed.

"Like I said, no surprise. And that's just like you to go for a person in lower social class than me. Advice to you friend, stay away from that one. She's like a mannequin in a store window. Cool to look at, not to touch." he said, then laughed again.

"Raphael I said shut up!" Ayame yelled.

Koga looked around, still confused. Raphael? He remembered that name from when they met. That was the guy that she pushed into the water. He sure sounded arrogant right now. This Raphael guy was someone he didn't like. He could tell. He had a smile on his face that made Koga want to punch him.

"Don't say that about my girlfriend man." he said calmly.

"Your girlfriend? How cute. Just like in high school!" Raphael laughed.

Raphael walked closer to Ayame. "You still owe me for the stuff I gave you." he said.

"I gave it all back." she snapped.

"You forgot one thing." he said smoothly, and trailed his hand down her cheek. Ayame shivered. How dare he put his hands on her! Koga's face became red with anger. How dare he put his hands on his girlfriend!

Ayame felt herself being pulled away. She looked over at Koga confused. She saw the anger on his face, and thought that he was going to make them leave.

"Koga? Koga wait! I'm so sorry!" she said.

Koga stopped and turned to her.

"What the hell for!" he snapped.

"I didn't know he'd be here. I'm sorry."

Koga's gaze softened and he hugged her. It wasn't her fault.

"I just didn't want him touching you." he said.

"I saw that. I'm sorry. If you wanted to beat his face in you have my permission."

Koga chuckled. "No, if anything, that bonehead Inuyasha taught me that fighting ex-boyfriends was worthless, a complete waste of time."

Ayame smiled and kissed him. When they pulled away, she looked around again.

"Oh look! Frozen Lemonade! I've never had that before! Can I?" she asked.

Koga grinned. "Of course you can!"

-

"I still don't understand how you did it."

Kagome smiled and lugged the big teddy bear around, searching for the car, to hold it there until they got back.

"Just talent I guess." she said.

Inuyasha blushed. He tried seven times to win that stupid prediction game, but had no luck. When Kagome got tired of it, she offered to play, and won on the first go around. Inuyasha felt like a girl. He was supposed to win her stuff!

"Inuyasha, lets go on some rides ok?" Kagome asked.

"Whatever you want" Inuyasha choked out.

-

"No! Ah! Stop!" Koga laughed.

"Mwahaha I've got you now!" Ayame yelled.

Ayame laughed as she knocked Koga over in his over-sized sumo wrestler suit. They laughed as she tackled him onto the mat.

"Ok! You win!" Koga shouted.

"I know! Ha!" Ayame laughed.

As the couple put their shoes on and walked away from the mat, Koga looked around then pointed over to a photo shoot.

"Look it's Inu and Kags!" he said.

Ayame turned and laughed as she saw Inuyasha and Kagome getting their pictures taken by a short chubby man who looked like Mario. Inuyasha and Kagome seemed to be dressed up in old western clothes, Inuyasha as a sheriff and Kagome in a big poofie dress with a feather-fan in her hand and a matching feather pinned in the back of her hair. Ayame felt a pang of envy go through her.

"Ooooo Koga can we do that! Please!"

Koga laughed.

"Alright, but we have to pick some better clothes than that!"

Ayame nodded and they went to stand in line. Good thing that there wasn't a big line. When Kagome and Inuyasha were done, they went in a little booth to get in their normal clothes and get the pictures. They saw Koga and Ayame on their way out. Kagome giggled as she saw Ayame in a less-poofie dress, yet similar to the one she wore, and Koga in a pirate suit.

"Having fun?" Koga asked.

Both Inuyasha and Kagome nodded and walked towards a food stand to eat and then wait for the other to finish that they could join them.

-

"Well I'd say that I'm almost out of money, what about you Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha laughed nervously, "Uh yeah me too...how about we go on the ferris wheel before we head home?"

Ayame and Kagome squealed in delight as the couple boarded the ferris wheel. Koga's arm immediately went around Ayame as they snuggled and enjoyed the ride. Kagome stared at them from behind, then looked at Inuyasha, who was looking at them as well.

"Well this sure is romantic, huh?" Kagome said annoyed.

Inuyasha didn't reply, he just blushed slightly, and looked below him. The sun was beginning to go down. This was a romantic scene indeed. But what wasn't romantic about it? His thoughts were cut off when he noticed Kagome leaning her head on his shoulder. He smiled and put his arm around her.

"It's about time." she mumbled.

"What?"

"It's about time...the sun's going down. See?"

Inuyasha smirked.

"Kagome are you mad that Koga and Ayame do more stuff than we do or something?"

"No! Why would I think that!" she yelled.

Koga and Ayame turned their heads back, looking at the two. Inuyasha waved, but they laughed at the grumbling Kagome sitting next to them.

"We wouldn't have this problem if you opened up to me more you know." Inuyasha said.

Kagome pouted and decided that the little clouds in the sky were more important than this conversation.

"Kagome?...Kagome!"

Inuyasha gave up, looking the other way. Then he heard Kagome clear her voice.

"Ok." she said.

Right when Inuyasha turned his head, she kissed him on the lips, sweetly and gently, not trying to intimidate him in any way. Inuyasha was surprised for a minute, but quickly found himself kissing her back.

Koga turned around and whispered to Ayame, "Any ideas?"

Ayame lightly punched him on the arm and laughed when he whined an 'ow that hurt!'

-

Everyone walked to the car in silence, content with how the day had gone. Kagome smiled at the ten pictures that she had in her pocket with Inuyasha and her on them. She had to remember to split them in half and frame some of them, she blushed when she remembered that Inuyasha said he didn't want any, due to the fact that he decided to get SEVEN t-shirts with the pictures on them. She blushed harder as they reached her car.

Koga and Ayame had their hands linked together, reflecting on the fun they had, but that sort of gone and fizzled when they looked at the loads of stuffed animals and posters hanging out of the windows. Koga's eye twitched.

"You guys mind telling us where all of this stuff came from?" Ayame asked.

Both Inuyasha and Kagome started laughing.

"Well?" she asked again.

It took them a few minutes to regain their composure, but they slowly raised a finger and pointed at each other. Now both Koga and Ayame had an eye twitching problem. Kagome and Inuyasha started laughing again.

"But where are we going to sit?" Ayame asked.

-

"Nice question Ayame!" Koga yelled through the ears of a giant bunny, trying not to choke on the fake fur.

"Mmum Hash" was all he heard from the other end of the car.

"You think we won a little too much games?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yup." Kagome said.

"Um Kagome? I can't see Koga or Ayame..."

"Yup."

"You realize it'll take us an hour to get back?"

"Yup."

"Do you think they can breathe back there!"

Kagome smirked and turned on the radio, continuing down the highway, blocking out the muffled mumbles of her friends in the back seat.

"I love carnivals."

YAY there's a chapter! Um I feel like I should have done a bit more detail on the carnival events...poo. Ok here's the deal, if I have some extra time, I go back some time a redo this chapter with more details ok? If you would really like that say thumbs up k? But anyways...I hope y'all liked this fluffiness and Kagome's brave kiss thingy. It was hard to right this chapter since there was only one scene of drama! sniff I love drama sniff anyways, review please!
