Chapter 12: The Deal
The guys had recently sent the tape in to the recording companies and were waiting for them to reply. The girls continued to practice, but now they could do it with the guys there, since they had already heard them play.
Ayame had recently written another new song, and they were in the middle of practicing it. "So what's this one called again Ayame?" Rin questioned. "Since U Been Gone." Ayame replied. "Ayame your not gonna be able to forget him, if you keep writing songs about him." Kagome stated. "Yeah I know, but I think it helps." Ayame replied.
"So you guys ready?" Sango asked sitting at her drums. "You know it." Ayame, Rin, and Kagome replied.
Sango started off with her drums, Rin and Kagome followed with the electric guitar and the bass. Then Ayame began to sing.
Ayame:
Here's the thing
We started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
You dedicated, you took the time
Wasn't long till I called you mine
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I picture me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say
Both:
But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you, now I get what I want
Since you been gone
Kagome:
How can I put it, you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah, since you been gone
How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
Guess you never felt that way
Both:
But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah, yeah
Thanks to you, now I get what I want
Since you been gone
Ayame:
You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again
Both:
Since you been gone (since you been gone)
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get, I get what I want
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know, that I get
I get what I want
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
(AN: Everything that was in parenthesis was where the rest of the band echoed.)
"That was good guys." Kagome stated. "Let's take a break now and see what the guys are up to." Sango suggested. "Oh we all know you just wanna see Miroku." Ayame stated. "Ayame. . ." Sango started. "Yes?" Ayame replied sweetly. "Run." Sango stated as she took off running after Ayame.
Ayame ran as fast as she could. She decided to run downstairs to the guys.
With the Guys:
"Hey guys guess what?" Kouga asked. "What?' They replied obviously not interested. "They're in." He replied. Inuyasha and Miroku jumped off of the couch. "Yes I knew they could do it." Miroku stated happily. "That's good." Came Inuyasha's reply.
They soon heard screams of "CRAP SHES GONNA KILL ME!!" "Ayame?" Kouga questioned as she came running into the room. Ayame ran behind the guys and stood behind Kouga. "I'm not here." She whispered
"WHERE IS SHE?!?" Asked an obviously pissed Sango. "Haven't seen her." Kouga replied while Inuyasha and Miroku agreed. "When I find her she is so dead." Sango said storming off to another room.
"I'm saved." Ayame said falling onto the couch. "Now what did you do to make her so angry." Miroku questioned. "Uh…" Ayame started. She didn't want to say anything cause Miroku was there. That would make Sango want to kill her even more.
"Nothing…" Ayame stated. "Sure…" Inuyasha said. They decided to drop it since Ayame was not going to talk. A minute later Kagome walked down. "Hey Kagome what did Ayame do to Sango?" Inuyasha asked.
"Nothing." Kagome replied as she sat down on the couch with Ayame. "Well we have something to tell you, but we need you all to be here." Kouga said. "Rin is going to be right down, and Sango is somewhere around here." Kagome said.
A minute later Rin came walking down the stairs. "So Sango hasn't found you yet huh Ayame?" Rin questioned. "Nope." Ayame stated with a smirk. A couple seconds later Sango walked into the room. "THERE YOU ARE!" She screamed.
Sango was about to jump on Ayame, but suddenly felt someone's arms around her waist. "Sango don't kill her yet, we have something to tell you guys." Miroku said holding on to Sango by the waist. "No Miroku let me go I have to hurt her!" Sango yelled.
Sango struggled in Miroku's arms, but he didn't let go. Soon enough she gave up. Miroku however did not release his hold on her.
"So what do you need to tell us?" Questioned Ayame. "Well when you guys were singing at the club Sesshoumaru videotaped it." Inuyasha started. The girl's mouths fell open. Just then Sesshoumaru walked into the room and continued what Inuyasha was saying.
"Well we took the tape and sent it to a recording company." Sesshoumaru stated. If it was even possible the girl's looked even more shocked. "We got their reply today and they want you girls to come in for an interview." Kouga finished.
It was dead silent then, "OH MY GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!" Ayame screamed. "You've got to be kidding." Sango said. "No were not you're supposed to go in today, so I suggest you go and change." Miroku said as he finally let go of Sango's waist.
The girls ran upstairs to change. Each of them were very excited. Fifteen minutes later they came back down.
Ayame was wearing a red halter-top and a black mini skirt. She had on black eyeliner and some lip gloss, and was wearing red high heels. Her hair was left down.
Kagome was wearing a pink tube top and low hip hugger jeans. She had on the same amount of make-up as Ayame, but she wore pink heels instead. Her hair was also left down.
Sango was wearing a purple tank top and a white mini skirt. She had on just eyeliner, and she wore black heels. She had her hair pulled into a high ponytail.
Rin was the last to come down and she wore a green tank top and low hip hugger jeans. She had on no make-up and wore green heels. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail like Sango's.
"So is this better?" Kagome asked as she walked down the stairs. The guys just stared. "I'll take that as a yes." Ayame laughed walking next to Kagome. Rin and Sango were right behind them.
The girls were at the door while the guys just continued to stare. "Guys snap out of it, it's time to go." Rin yelled back at them. They finally came back to reality and followed the girls out to the limo.
Half an hour later:
They had finally arrived at the recording studio and started to make their way inside. "Ooh I'm nervous." Ayame said looping arms with Kagome. "I think we all are." Rin said walking along.
They finally came to the door and knocked. "Come in." Came a voice from the other side. Sango opened the door and was followed by Ayame, Kagome, and Rin. "Hey aren't you guys coming?" Rin asked. "Nope we gotta stay out here." Sesshoumaru replied. "You'll do fine."
"Welcome ladies, my name is John and I will be the director of you're album." John stated. "Wait I thought this was just an interview." Ayame said. "Well it was going to be, but we decided we want you to make an album." John stated calmly.
"Now do you have some songs you have been working on?" John questioned. "Yeah we have about five or six." Sango answered. "Great. I don't need to hear them now, but continue to work on them. All were going to do today is come up with a name for you're band and go over song titles." John stated.
"So what would you like the band to be called?" "Well I was thinking about Demonic Angel." Ayame said. "Yeah Ayame that's awesome." Kagome stated. "So what do you guys think?" Ayame asked. "That's good." Sango and Rin stated.
"Cool so we have a band name. Now you want to know the name of our songs?" Sango questioned. "Yeah, just so I can start to make a list." John stated.
"Ok well Ayame I think that's your job." Kagome said. "Ok, well we have Rumors, Wrong, Since U Been Gone, Cardboard Castles, and Breathe." Ayame finished listing them off on her fingers as she went.
"Ok well that's a start." I want you girls to have about thirteen or fourteen songs by the time we meet again." John said. "And when is that?" Rin questioned. "In a week." He replied calmly. "ARE YOU SERIOUS WE ONLY HAVE A WEEK!?!" Ayame yelled.
"Yes and I hope you will meet that deadline." He said. "Now if you will excuse me I have to get back to work." He said as he ushered them out the door.
They walked out with their mouths open. "Guys how am I supposed to write nine more songs by next week?" Ayame asked. "I dunno we'll work on it." Rin stated. They walked to the waiting room and found the guys sitting there.
"So how did it go?" Inuyasha questioned. "Ayame has to write nine songs in one week." Kagome said as she continued to walk. "Wow are you serious?" Kouga questioned. "Yeah." Ayame said. "Wow that's a lot." Miroku said.
"No kidding." Sango said. "Let's just go." Kagome stated. They all climbed into the limo and made their way home.
"So what do you want to do today?" Kouga questioned. "Well I should probably write something, seeing as we only have a week." Ayame said lowering her head. "I can't believe he's only giving me a week." "Hey it's ok you'll have enough time." Kouga said trying to comfort her.
"Why don't you guys watch a movie or something. I'm gonna go try and write something." Ayame said walking up the stairs. "So you guys wanna watch a movie then?" Kagome asked. "Sure." They replied as they all went to the couch to watch a movie.
With Ayame:
I wonder what I should write. Hmm… I guess I'll just have to think about it. She thought as she laid down on her stomach on her bed.
With the Others:
It was about half way through the movie when Kouga decided to go check on Ayame. "Where you going?" Inuyasha questioned from his spot next to Kagome. "To check on Ayame." He replied as he went up the stairs.
As Kouga started nearing her door he heard singing.
Now I let you out of my life I'm so much betterYou thought that I'd be weak without you but I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without you but I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without you I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without you now I'm wiser
Thought that I'd be helpless without you but I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without you but I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you sold 9 million
I'm a survivor
I'm not gon give up
I'm not gon stop
I'm gon work harder
I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I will survive
Keep on survivin'
By this time Ayame had stopped singing. "Don't stop." Kouga said as he walked in. Ayame blushed when she saw him. "I thought you were watching a movie." Ayame stated still looking down. "You have an amazing voice you know." Kouga stated.
"I'm not that great." Ayame said. "Yeah you are. Trust me." Kouga stated. "Is that a new song?" Kouga questioned. "Part of one." Ayame replied. "It's good. I like it." He stated.
"Kouga I don't know if I can do this. Write so many songs in just a week. That's at least one or more a day." Ayame said finally looking up. "I have faith in you." Kouga said as he started to get closer. "I know but the girls are counting on me to get this done." Ayame said.
Kouga didn't say anything, but he reached in and gave her a soft kiss on the lips. "I know you can do it." He said as he pulled away and started to walk out the door.
"Hey Kouga?" Ayame called. "Yeah?" He asked as he turned around. "Thanks." Ayame replied as she watched him walk out the door.
I have the perfect idea for a new song. Ayame thought as she began to write.
Back with the others:
"So how is she?" Sango asked from the couch. "Fine." Kouga said as he walked over to the couch and watched the end of the movie with the others.
Soon the movie was over. "So what do you guys wanna do now?" Sango questioned. "How about we play football?" Rin suggested. "Sure sounds fun." The guys stated. "Hey one of you go and get Ayame." Miroku said.
"I will." Sango said as she ran upstairs to get Ayame. "Hey Ayame were gonna play football, do you wanna come and play?" Sango asked from outside the room. "Yeah sure." Ayame said as she walked out. "Let's go." Ayame said with a smile.
Five minutes later everyone was outside and getting on teams. "So should we play guys verse girls?" Sango asked. "Fine with us." Inuyasha replied. "Just don't get too mad when we beat your asses."
"You wish." Sango said with a smirk. Now they had all formed a little circle and were discussing what to do. "So you think we can beat them?" Rin questioned. "Hopefully." Ayame replied. "So you guys know how to play?" Kagome asked.
They all shook their heads yes. "Ok good well we'll wing it then. I don't know any special plans or anything." Sango said. "Fine with me." Ayame replied.
Soon the game was underway. The girls kept passing between each other. Luckily they could all catch. They guys started getting frustrated. "You have to do more than throw it between yourselves you know." Inuyasha stated.
"We know." Kagome replied as she threw the ball to Sango. Sango ran across the end zone and threw the ball done. "TOUCHDOWN!" She yelled. "Yeah great job Sango!" Ayame yelled to her friend. They continued the game for a while until the score was 21 to 21.
It was the girl's ball and Sango was the quarterback. She got the ball and threw it up to Ayame. Ayame caught it and started to run to the end zone. She tripped however and fell on top of Kouga. The ball flew out of her hands, but Rin was there to catch it and win the game for them.
"YEAH!!!" All the girls cheered as the jumped around. Ayame was about to get off of Kouga, but he wrapped an arm around her waist. "Kouga let me go." Ayame whined. "Nope." Kouga stated obviously content with himself.
"Hey guys I need some help here." Ayame yelled to her friends. "Doesn't look like you need help." Sango said as they walked over. "He won't let me go and now he's pretending like he's asleep." Ayame complained.
"Can't help you there Ayame." Kagome laughed as she started to walk away. "You guys are so mean!" Ayame yelled to her friends. "We know!" Rin yelled back as they all started to laugh. "The other guys walked in with them as well.
"Kouga you idiot let me go." Ayame stated. He just shook his head. "Your impossible you know that." She complained. This time he shook his head yes.
Ayame grabbed onto his arm and released herself from his hold, and jumped up quickly so he wouldn't get her again. "Ha I'm free." Ayame said laughing as she made her way inside. Damn. Thought Kouga.
"Thanks for the help guys." Ayame said as she walked in. "No problem." Kagome said from the couch. "So you two have fun?" Sango asked.
"Sango…" Ayame started. "Yes?" She replied sweetly. "Run!" Ayame said as she started to chase Sango. "Not again." Rin said as her and Kagome shook their heads at their friend's actions.
AN: Chapter 12 done…YEAH! Anyway I go back to school tomorrow so most likely I will only be able to update on weekends. Sorry about that. Anyway I made this chapter pretty long. I hope you like it.
