Sigh…I'm going to speed up this a bit and move on…hopefully the last of a section for this story will be done by exactly Christmas! I'm so sorry that this is short!

Chapter 17: Winter Community Dance

Kurama's POV…

"What was that?" Kurama politely asked; he had missed the last part of what the girls had said.

Kurama really didn't want to listen to his chattering fan girls, but from his kind habit, had stayed to listen anyhow.

"Will you go to the dance with me?" One girl pleaded.

"Ask me out! Please, please!" Another one shouted.

"T-to what…?" Kurama was overwhelmed with all the questions.

"The winter community dance this year!" They all chorused together. One girl handed a sheet of coloured paper to him.

'Wh-what?' Kurama thought.

/The dance for winter, you baka/ Youko shouted, waking up.

I know!

/The don't act so confused / Youko pouted/I'm going back to sleep /

Soon, the sounds of snoring could be heard. Kurama mentally rolled his eyes.

"Suichi? Are you okay?" 5 pairs of worried eyes leaned over him.

"Ah, yes. Sorry to worry you" Kurama smiled lightly. He stood up from the bench he sat on earlier and smoothed out his shirt, "Sorry to say this, but I really must get going now. Goodbye for now…" with that, he hastily made his getaway.

Minamino Residence…

"I'm home, mother!" Kurama shouted, hanging up his jacket and taking a seat by the kitchen counter.

"Suichi! You're home!" His mom, Shiori greeted, smiling.

Kurama idly took out the piece of paper that one of his fan girls had stuffed into his pocket and used his hands to smoothen the wrinkles out.

"What's that?" Shiori questioned curiously, peeking over his shoulder.

Tokyo Winter Community Dance!

On Sunday, December 18, a formal winter dance will be taken place at Greenery Square, downtown! All occupants who wish to attend must have a partner, confirmed and phoned in by the 17th!

Hope to see you there!

Shiori took a look at their calendar and abruptly mentioned, "It's the 16th… I think you should go, dear, this seems very exciting!"

Kurama paused and refolded the paper, "I don't have a partner though…"

"Well, you should get one then!" Shiori smiled cheerily, ushering him out the door once again, "And hurry! After the dance, invite the lucky girl over for dinner!"

"But…mother…" Kurama turned around, only to find the door had gently closed in his face.

'If it would make mother pleased…' Kurama sighed in defeat.

A black blur jumped down from the trees, "Hn" he smirked.

Kurama nearly scowled, but he didn't.

The Feudal Era…

"Sango…d-don't be rash…!"

SLAP

"YOU HENTAI HOUSHI!"

"Eh…" Kagome sweat dropped, "You guys…be careful…you might fall into the well…"

"Sango dear…why?" Miroku pleaded with swirly eyes.

"You're going to fall in!" Kagome cried out, alarmed.

SLAP

Sango aimed a second hit at Miroku.

The monk stumbled around a bit, and fell on Sango, who tripped and fell into the well.

"EH…?" Kagome's eyes widened, "Sango! Miroku! Are you alright!" Without thinking, she jumped into the well with them.

The Higurashi Shrine…

"W-we're in the future…!" Kagome exclaimed, pointing up at the well house roof.

"WHAT?" Sango shouted unbelievingly, "But I thought only you and Inuyasha could get through, along with maybe the guys that came yesterday?"

"I thought so too…"

Somebody coughed, "Ahem…If you two ladies could get off me" Miroku announced, and then muttered in a smaller voice, "Not that I mind…"

Sango's face turned beet red, "HENTAI"

SLAP

"Ahh-!" His bruise now looked sorta purple...

A shadow loomed over the well, "Kagome…? Are you alright, do you need some help?"

The said miko took a glance at the fuming exterminator and dizzy monk, and then sighed, "Yes please…"

With Hiei grudgingly helping Sango and Miroku up and out of the well, Kurama lifted a blushing Kagome out.

"Thanks" she mumbled sheepishly.

Sango and Miroku wandered out of the well house, exploring the modern era with awe.

"Wait! Guys…! Hold up! You might get lost!"

"Um…Kagome…?"

Kagome paused, "Yeah…?"

Hiei whisked himself out of the room, following Sango and Miroku with a twitching eyebrow as Miroku, who still hadn't totally gained his balance yet, stepped on his foot, "Don't take too long, fox"

Kurama took a small breath, "I was just wondering… There's this winter dance coming up on Sunday…would you like to go with me?"

Kagome heavily blushed, "Excuse me…?"

Kurama pursed his lips, finding it hard to repeat the sentence again.

"O-okay…"

"I-I guess I'll pick you up at 6 then?" Kurama asked, thinking of the times. He'd force Hiei to come because it was highly noticeable to him that the fire apparition liked the demon slayer.

"Sure…" Kagome looked at her shoes and fidgeted in embarrassment.

"Keiko's coming with Yusuke and I heard that Botan really wants to go with someone, so we could bring Miroku along…"

"That sounds like a good idea"

OKAY! The next chapter will be actually AT the dance… I'm so tired, even at this time of day… (Sigh) Read and review onegai!

Sayonara,
