Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Ploop ploop ploop de lu ple ploop. Sorry, I couldn't help it. Hehe, anyways! It's been a while right?

I wasn't really was going to update just yet, because I concentrated a lot of my time on my other fics so yeah.

But let's get the chapter over with first before I continue talking okay? Okay!

Oh and before I forget, I forgot that I already wrote a Chapter 20 so I wrote one. Then when I was finished, I noticed that I already did write a Chapter 20. But the thing is, I don't want to get rid of this one because I like it so much better than the original. So what I'm trying to say is… Here's Chapter 20! The new one. I guess you can say that it's almost the same as the original but better. I like this one much better. It's longer and it has more story into it. I'm sorry if I'm confusing but please forgive me.

This is the real Chapter 20 and because I'm confusing you all, expect the next chapter somewhere in July. That's for sure! I already started writing it anyways. Gosh you guys, I'm really sorry it's been forever.

NEW! CHAPTER 20! THE UPDATE!

Single Candle Lit

: Chapter 20

o

Inuyasha looked down at Kagome, "I heard you did it."

"Did what?"

Inuyasha scoffed, "What did you do? Pay him or drug him?"

"Excuse me?"

"Stupid bitch, stop acting dumb. How the fuck did you do it!"

Kagome looked at him and remembered what Kouga had told her, "I don't have to listen to you." She smiled calmly and walked away. Kouga was right; she did feel a lot better if she just ignored him with out looking down and allowing him to step on her.

She looked at her watch, school was over and she was supposed to go over to Sango's house for a visit but if she left now she'd be too early. What could it hurt to go visit Rin and for a few minutes before heading over to Sango's?

The raven-haired girl walked to the gym to find out that only a few people had yet to arrive, and Rin wasn't any one of them. She decided to give up until she stopped a familiar guy she had just been thinking of, looking at the bulletin board. She grinned and walked up behind him, "Hey you!" She chirped.

A little surprised, he turned around to see who it was. "Oh hey Kagome, what are you doing here?"

"Well I just stopped by to say hi to Rin, but she isn't here and I saw you so—here I am." She looked at the bulletin board, "What are you doing here Kouga?"

He shrugged, "Nothing."

She smirked, "Were you planning on signing up for a sport?"

"Honestly?" He watched as she nodded, "I don't know."

"Kouga…" She trailed, "You're acting dumb."

He chuckled, "Forget it, let's get out of here."

She sighed, "I'm thinking that because I came here you changed your mind. Well just forget I was here so I can leave."

"Listen, I have a lot of things on my mind and I thought about signing up, but…" He shrugged, "I don't know."

"Soccer!" Kagome suddenly blurted out.

"Huh?" He began to get confused.

"I remember! When we started high school two years ago! Soccer! You were awesome! The team was going to go all the way and then you quit so quickly…" Her excitement lowered, "I never had the chance to ask you what happened." She paused, "Do you want to tell me?"

As if on automatic, Kouga reached for her and pulled her into a hug. Heck yeah did he want to tell her! He wanted to tell her what was wrong with him; everything that was wrong with him! But could he? Nope!

"Kouga?" Kagome wondered why the sudden reaction.

He pulled away and smiled at her sadly and then turned to face the bulletin board again.

"Kouga, what's wrong?"

He shook his head and turned to her with a big smile. She looked at him still wondering, one minute he was the dumb Kouga then something else then normal happy Kouga again. The mood swing didn't bother her, it was the something else, she had never seen him like that before, or even ever. The only kinds of sad Kouga she's seen was fake sad, so tiny sad it doesn't look sad, or when it really is something that everybody would be sad about. But what she saw kind of worried her. She always looked up to Kouga for joy and optimism and it hurt her to, for even a few seconds, see him the way she saw him.

Kagome nodded, she didn't want to think about it anymore.

Kouga cleared his throat hoping that she could forget anything happened, "You wanna go out to get something to eat?"

She smiled, "Sorry, I'd love to but I promised Sango I'd come over." She looked at him, "But it would be way better if two people could come visit her."

He smiled and pointed at himself and watched Kagome nod in agreement. "Isn't Rin going to come?"

"She said she'll try to come after practice but she could get tired so you know, we'll let her rest."

Kouga slung his arm around her shoulder, "Okay, let's go then."

…

Rin walked out of the school. Practice was over fast today, and her mind was set on Sango's house. She was walking towards the ground's entrance when a certain silver haired teen caught her eye. She jogged over to him.

"Inuyasha, what are you doing here at this time?"

He looked at her weirdly, "It's only been about an hour and a half since school was over."

She looked at her watch, "Oh yeah. Shesh, I thought it was longer than that."

"I had detention and I had to do some other stuff." He pulled out his car keys out of his pocket as the two of them walked to his black convertible. "Everybody's at Sango's house. And they're all looking for the two of us."

"How do you know?"

With a press of a button, the doors unlocked themselves. He walked to the driver's seat and opened her door for her from the inside, "I got a call earlier."

Taking the subtle invitation, she sat on the passenger's seat before closing the door. "Even Miroku?"

"You're not going to believe this but yeah." He smiled and turned the ignition on and closed the door as the car roared to life.

Rin gasped, "Did anything good happen between them?"

"They're ignoring each other." He pulled out of the parking lot and then out of the school, "That's why they're looking for us." He smirked, "They all want to lock the two of them in a room and they don't want us to miss the action."

The raven-haired girl clapped, "Or even better, we could strip the two of them and then lock them up together! I mean come on, Miroku can't resist a naked Sango, and I've seen Sango's boobs—they are huge!"

Inuyasha laughed, "Let's do it."

…

"The queen has arrived!" Rin exclaimed as she made her way to Sango's living room where she spotted everybody.

Kouga scoffed, "I've been here."

"I said queen you fag, you're the king."

He smirked, "Okay, I like that."

Inuyasha sat next to Kouga on the couch, "Listen, Rin came up with something better when we were in the car. So is this going down on what?"

"Fuck yeah this is going down! What the new plan?"

Rin giggled, "Buff it."

"You mean?" Kouga looked at Inuyasha.

"Naked!"

Kagome laughed, "I think Rin and I are going to have a hard time going through with it. I mean there are a lot of you against one, but you guys are forgetting that the one that we're going against is powerful!"

Sesshoumaru chuckled, "See that's the good thing about your own. Your own won't literally beat you up, while our own would."

Naraku looked at the two that kept quiet the whole time. True they were ignoring each other, but they were also ignoring everyone else. So they weren't paying attention to the plan. "So how are we going to start it?"

"I'm tired! Sango! I'm going to go lay down on your bed! Kagome and Kouga, would you guys like to come? I know you're tired too Kouga! And Sango's bed is large!" Rin started.

The other's started to play along.

"I'll come too!" Naraku got up.

Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha nodded and too stood up with the rest of them.

Rin looked at Sango and gave her the wrong message.

Sango stood up, "I wouldn't want you guys to mess up my room."

Rin turned and smirked, it worked! She made Sango think that they were all leaving so that her and Miroku could have alone time, when in reality, the plan had just begun. She looked back at Miroku who was following them up the stairs not wanting to stay all by himself in the living room.

Before the two subjects came into the room, Rin rushed to Sango's closet and locked it and slipped Sango's keys into her pocket. The plan was mean but they will be thanked. Sango wouldn't get too mad too, because they did think like this to each other a lot of times.

All the antagonists sprawled themselves on the bed, not allowing the two to have any room. Sango sat on her chair while Miroku stood up.

"Ready?" Everybody looked at Rin.

"Go!" Kouga yelled.

The girls tackled Sango while the boys attacked Miroku as Kouga opened the glass sliding door and walked out. Kouga stood on the balcony. He looked inside and saw predators pulling, tugging, and ripping off the clothing of their prey. Inside he felt sorry for them but it was for their own good. Kouga quickly closed the shutters together and locked it from the outside. The metal shutters were used to shield the glass from storms, but for this occasion, it was to keep Miroku and Sango in. As soon as he was finished, he walked to either side of the now sealed door and did the same thing for Sango's two windows.

When he was all done, he ran back inside the house and watched as the boys placed a chain and lock through Sango's two door handles. That was actually very easy, Sango had two doors and to enter the room you'd have to push the doors in. Sango's mom was a big time architect and designed their house to be fancy.

There was banging against the door but it stopped when the two had realized that it was no use. They all knew that Miroku was the one doing the banging. He had no problem with being naked but Sango did. After they were done, she was so cautious that she just curled up into a ball while Miroku continued to fight back.

When everything was finished and secured they all began to laugh, "That was fun!" Rin clapped.

Kouga knocked on the door, "Hey you two! You guys aren't coming out until there's progress in your relationship!"

"Yeah! We love you guys and we love it even more when you two are together!" Rin added.

Sesshoumaru chuckled, "Start macking you two."

On the other side of the door, Miroku glared. This wasn't funny! Why the fuck were they laughing! He sighed, he understood them… He closed his eyes and turned around. He walked to the bed and picked up Sango's blanket before glancing really quickly at where she was at. She was facing the wall and her back to towards him. He opened his eyes and walked up to her before wrapping the blanket around her naked body.

"Thanks…" She mumbled without looking at him.

He smiled, "Can I borrow your towel?"

She nodded and he walked over to her chair where a towel was hanging. He wrapped it around his waist and sat down on the chair. "They aren't going to let us out in a long time."

She stood up with the blanket on her head and around her body like a hooded robe. "Stupid Rin." She walked over to the bed and sat down too. They were facing each other but weren't looking at each other as they stayed quiet.

A long silence passed for what seemed to be hours until Miroku broke the silence, "I'm sorry."

She looked up from the ground and looked at him oddly, "Sorry? For what?"

"For us not being 'us' anymore."

Sango scoffed, "Hey, I'm the one that broke it off remember?"

He chuckled as he turned his head, he couldn't look at her, he missed her way too much and it was driving him up the wall. "But you wouldn't have if I didn't piss you off."

"Shut the fuck up Miroku." She said annoyed.

"Okay." He nodded and turned the business chair and rested his head on the large desk. Well there went his plan; it flew straight out the window. He tried. He picked up a pencil and played with it. Wow, did he miss her. They had been so close too. He always tried called her, always tried to make plans with her, always tried to be with her, always tried to like everything she did, always tried to be her perfect boyfriend, and now they couldn't even have a conversation. He felt bad.

Again, there was silence, but he heard this small sniffle. He turned the chair around and looked at the girl who constantly occupied his mind. She was laying down on the bed with the blanket still around her, except her face was on her pillow, and her shoulders made subtle movements.

He had a sudden ache in him, Sango, his Sango, was crying. Without even thinking he rushed over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist and made her sit up. She didn't fight him, and she looked at him with a damp face and teary eyes. "I'm sorry Miroku."

He held her closer and she rested her face on his bare chest and her felt her tears roll down his skin. "Sango. Don't cry."

"I was being a bitch and I was so stupid and I broke it off." She took a breath from talking too fast and wrapped her arms around his waist and held on tight. "I don't know. I just miss you so much and it's so hard not having you around and I'm really sorry."

He stroked her hair feeling relief rush through him. "It's alright Sango. Really, it is." He brought her face up to his and planted a soft kiss on her lips.

…

"Well, Sango's fridge is officially empty." Kouga burped.

Inuyasha stifled a yawn as he got up from his nap on the couch, "It's already been two hours."

Rin looked at all of them. They had all played cards during the first hour. After that they got hungry and ate. After a good half hour they stopped and Inuyasha went to sleep. Although, Kouga and Naraku didn't stop, they only stopped recently because there was no more food. And while they were eating away, she, Kagome, and Sesshoumaru just talked. "I guess it's a good time to go and check on them.

"Yes!" Kouga laughed, "I finally get to see Sango naked!"

Inuyasha laughed with him as they rest rolled their eyes. They knew Kouga was kidding, but he was still just weird.

Kagome punched Kouga, "Just for that, you have to go open the shutters."

"Man, why me? Can't we just do it later?"

She gave up, "Fine."

They reached the door and turned the knob on the pad lock to its combination and pulled it open. Unwrapping the chain from around the handles, Rin reminded then with a finger over her lips to stay quiet. Slowly she opened the door and they peaked in.

There lay on Sango's bed was the two of them tangled up under the blanket.

"Aww…" The girls trailed softly, but as soon as the guys saw the two they cheered like animals.

Inuyasha chuckled, "Dude, it smells like some kind of wild sex in here."

The two woke up and looked at their onlookers.

"Hey," Miroku's gruff voice called out, "shut up and close the door."

Kouga casually and stupidly walked into the room and stood in front of Sango, "So does this mean that you two are back together?"

"Kouga you're so full of shit! Come back here." Rin growled.

Sango nodded tiredly.

"Man!" Kouga whined, "I wanted to see you naked!"

Miroku glared at his brainless friend.

Again, Sango nodded tiredly. But this time she lifted her side of the blanket revealing her bare body against Miroku's. And since she was in the direction of the door, everybody else saw her too. Nobody could say anything; they were all shocked at her sudden decision.

"Those are big!" Kouga exclaimed finally breaking the silence.

Miroku snapped his eyes opened as he realized what was happening. He put his arm over Sango's and pushed it down to cover the two of them again. "Sango, what were you doing?" He mumbled.

She turned to face him and cuddled deeper into his arms, "I just wanted to make him shut up so he can go away."

"So did you guys, umm you know?" Kouga poked Sango, and then smirked, "Make love?" He teased.

"Yes!" Sango called out getting irritated, "Can you please go away now?"

He raised his hands in defeat, "I was just leaving." He walked to the rest of his friends and closed the door where the sleeping couple lay. He walked to the door and closed it slowly as he went through.

"I can't believe they had sex." Sesshoumaru mumbled.

Kagome looked up at him, "How is that hard to believe?"

"It's not that it's hard to believe. It's just that Miroku said that he always wanted his and Sango's first time together to be memorable."

Rin scoffed, "That is memorable."

Sesshoumaru surrendered, "I guess." He didn't want to get into the subject too deeply.

"Hey Rin, are you still coming with me?" Inuyasha looked back at her.

"Yeah!"

…

Inuyasha walked into his immense home laughing. He held the great doors opened for his friend as she walked in before closing them. He continued laughing and swung an arm around her shoulders, "Dude Rin! You are fucking gone!"

She giggled, "You're gay." And put an arm around him as well to keep her balance.

"But you can hang!" He led her to one of his many couches and made her sit, "I'll bring you home when you're a little bit sober. Or you can just stay over; we have a lot of room." He smiled goofily as he sat across her.

On the car ride to Sango's house earlier, he had told her that he was going to get pissed tonight and asked if she wanted to come. She said yes and after they had all brought Sango and Miroku together again, they left. It was still early so they had gone strolling for a while. They then went to eat dinner before going around bar hopping and getting wasted. Much to Inuyasha's amusement, he didn't get as wasted as he wanted, yes he was drunk, but not wasted. He was too busy watching Rin down everything he had given to her. Rin, Rin was wasted. He had even lost count of everything she had taken in.

He chuckled as he saw her eyelids drop before snapping open. "Let's go, I'll get you a room." She followed him up the grand stairway and into the large hallway. There was a gap in between then about ten feet long.

She looked around and saw a dark opened room. She walked into it carelessly and followed a light one end of the room. It was the light of a computer monitor and in front of it was someone typing.

That said person turned to his intruder and looked at her oddly, "Rin?" Sesshoumaru picked up at remote control and with a press of the button, the room's lights turned on, "What are you doing here?" He looked at her closely, "Have you been drinking."

Through her eyes, the room was moving, and she was swaying just to try to keep her balance. "What are you up to Sesshie?" She giggled.

"I was just getting started on my report so that I don't have to do it later." He shook his head, "What's going on?"

She looked at him hungrily and giggled again, "Nothing…" She trailed as she threw her arms around his neck.

"Rin?"

She nuzzled his neck, "You smell good Sesshie."

He put his hands on her waist and tried to push her away softly.

She ignored what he was doing and hung on to him tighter, "You look really good too."

"Rin, what's going on?" Sesshoumaru asked again stopping at pushing her away through uneasiness of upsetting her at her unstable state.

Putting her mouth near his ear, she whispered in a seductive tone, "Let's fuck." Before sliding her hands around his waist and pulling him on her.

"Rin!" He hissed as he put his hands on her shoulder and pushed her away hard enough for her to stop touching him. "What is going on!"

She giggled again and sat on his bed, "Sesshie! Stop delaying!" Her giggling turned into throaty laughter, "Isn't this what you wanted? What you and Naraku's challenge was all about? To get me into bed and bang me good?" She pulled up her tank top removed it completely, "Here's you're chance Sesshie baby. Show me that you can rock me harder than Naraku." She groaned sexily before she fell back on his bed. "You can fuck me with the lights on if you want, as long as you hurry up and get inside me."

He smirked and walked to the bed. Rin stared up at him and licked her teeth. "Why do you want me to have sex with you, Rin?" He asked huskily before placing himself on her and propping himself up on his elbows.

"So that we can get it over with and you can stop hurting me."

Looking at her oddly, he moved away the hairs on her face. "How have I been hurting you?"

"Just shut the fuck up and do me already!"

"Rin, that isn't going to happen."

Frustrated, she put her hands on his chest and tried to push him away, but failed.

He leaned in and nuzzled her neck, "If anyone's hurting, it's me. You're not the one fighting down an erection."

She laughed, "So you do want me…"

"I never said I didn't." He slid his hand under her neck and pulled her up, "I've wanted you for a long time already." His mouth landed on her neck and started to trail soft kisses up to her jaw. He stopped and looked at her lips that were parted slightly. "Rin…" He brushed them with his own before going down completely and taking them. He slipped his tongue easily into her mouth and slowly massaged her own. She allowed her tongue to dance with his until he pulled away slowly for air. Smiling down at her, he kissed her lightly before pulling away again, "I'm sorry."
