Chapter Three

XOXOX

"Yo, Inu." Miroku waved to Inuyasha as he strode over to the water fountain where Inuyasha was getting a sip.

"Hey. What's wrong with you? My fuckin' brother heard your message last night as was hounding me all evening!"

"God, I was just checking on you."

"Well don't. I don't need to be babysat." The two boys walked down the hall to their classroom, books slung under their arms.

As they walked down the hall, the boys passed a giant banner hanging over the entrance to the auditorium advertising the Easter Dance. Miroku laughed and said, "I have someone I want to ask to the dance."

"Oh? Who is it this time? Aki? Haruna? Miori? Aya? Mai? Megu? Tomiko? Yui? Ritsu -"

"It's not who you think it would be," Miroku said while cutting off Inuyasha. "This is someone new. I've never really even talked to her much before."

"Um, you never talk to any of your fans. You don't want to know their name! You just want bang-bang-bang!"

Miroku laughed. "Don't you want to know who it is?"

"Sure. Although I probably won't care. It's not like their any different from each other. Bleached blondes, nice bodies, cute faces, full chests, empty minds."

"It's Taijiya. Taijiya Sango."

Inuyasha started choking on his gum. "WHAT!"

"What's wrong? Isn't she your stalker's friend?"

"Sango? Why Sango?" Inuyasha was puzzled. Miroku never went for Sango-types. He liked his girls how Inuyasha previously described. Miroku especially liked the empty headed part. And Sango did not have an empty head.

"I don't know, that's the thing! There's something about her that draws me in… I want to know more about her. I was never like this with any other girl before, Inuyasha. Do you think there's something wrong with me?"

"Maybe you're growing up," he paused. "But maybe I have parents who are living!"

The two boys cracked up laughing. It was crazy - Miroku growing up. It's like… It just couldn't be done! If they went to a fortune teller, the teller would surely tell them Miroku would be a player for life.

"But honestly," said Inuyasha. "Why Sango? You do realize that dating a girl lower than our social status would damage your reputation, right?"

"You know, I don't care! We don't live in the Montague or Capulet's time anymore, so why should social status matter? So Sango's emo. So what? I wouldn't mind being one of the losers of the school. All this popularity is way too stressful. I know we're living in a world with a lot of pressure, but I can't take it. If she lets me date her, I'll start a new life, and I think it will do me good."

"But what about your place on the field? What about football?"

"Who cares about football. It's not like you have to be all rich and popular to play. You just need to be good at it, and I am more than good at it."

'Okay. This is weird. Miroku's actually been thinking… He makes a good point though… What if I asked Kagome to the dance?'

"Hello! Earth to Inu!" Miroku waved a hand in front of Inuyasha's face. "You were spacing out there. Are you in or what?"

"What?"

"Do you want to do the usual this weekend?" Miroku had a lecherous gleam in his eye.

Inuyasha's lips cracked into a wide grin. "You know I never refuse."

Thank Kamisama for the bell. It just saved the hanyou from getting caught smoking in the bathroom. Just as a teacher started to enter, the bell rang and he had to scurry off to wherever he had to be. Inuyasha smashed the fag in a square of toilet paper and flushed it down the toilet. He strolled to his locker and entered the combination: 27-29-15. As he opened the metal door, a piece of paper fell to his feet. He picked it up and opened it. It read:

Hey Hunky,

I want you to stop by my house tonight.

I Heart You!

Kagome.

A smiled graced Inuyasha's lips. There's no way he would skip her offer.

XOXOX

"Come in. My parents aren't home." Those words rang through Inuyasha's inu ears. Apparently Kagome's mother and grandfather were at the local laser tag place watching her brother Souta's game.

Kagome looked really good considering she was only at home. She had on a hot pink wife-beater that read: ALL MY BLACK SHIRTS WERE DIRTY! and a pair of black denim Dickie's. She walked slowly around the house, dragging Inuyasha by the hand as she gave him the grand tour.

Inuyasha and Kagome finally approached her room. The hanyou's senses were going psychotic. Everything in this small heaven smelled of the girl standing before him.

In her room there was a bed jutting out from the wall below a window. It was zebra striped and had a hot-pink teddy bear with a black Mohawk perched on her pillow. Her curtains matched her pillows: hot pink with white skulls on them. There was a TV across from the bed and a dresser with a heart shaped mirror next to the door to her own personal bathroom.

"So how do ya like it?" Kagome twirled before flopping on her bed.

Inuyasha smiled, inhaling the enticing scent. "I love it."

Kagome got up fro her queen sized bed and rummaged through some video tapes. "Found it!" she held up a fairly new tape in her hands.

"What's that?"

"A tape I made of a few music videos."

"Oh."

"Yeah!" leaned down to pop it in the VCR while clicking her tongue ring around. A lacey black thong peaked out of her Dickie's, making Inuyasha want to run to the quickest bathroom and jack off. (a/n: hahahahaha) She beckoned him to lay on the bed with her.

He shyly accepted and lay on the bed stomach-down next to her. The tape in front of them flickered on the TV, and it started with a fairly new video: "Watashigai no Uta" by Zwei.

Inuyasha never heard the song, but Kagome obviously knew it somewhat well, for she was tapping along to the strumming of the acoustic guitar in the beginning of the song. Ayumu's smooth, stern voice entered. Her voice could give you chills to no end, and you would be craving more yummy Zwei goodness.

A black door in the middle of nowhere was shown, and Megu, the bass player, looked through the square slot in it. A few shots of Ayumu and Megu were shown. The drums came in and the whole video came to life. Ayumu was singing her heart out into her microphone, and Megu was playing that bass like there was no tomorrow. A few shots of a crow moved back and forth, interchanging with pictures of Ayumu and Megu while Kagome sang the chorus (though not completely the right words), "Narenai de, Narenai de, Kuchibiru ga kawai de ru! KISU wa koko HAATO ni shite mazurkas kara Nortek watashi mikizuite!" (a/n: damn that auto correct... messed up my romanization)

Ayumu's face appeared, with scales all over, like a dragon or something. Inuyasha was amazed, and a little turned on as Kagome hopped around to the beat a little more. Inuyasha chuckled. God, she was cute…

Kagome sang to the chorus once again, this time with different lyrics, and her version was different from the original. "Dakishimete! Kimi de hoshii! Karanajuu kizutsuite! Oizumete! Kuchizukete! Migetai te ga mienai ni ga sanaide! Kimi gai nai, Kimi gai nai! Sagashite tandayo zutto. Setsuboomo Nukumori mo, watashiganai watashi ni oshite tonde yo!"

In the thirty seconds it took for Kagome to sing the chorus, Inuyasha's heart was pounding, and it was now that he really realized. He was in her room with her. Alone. No parents. She was dancing.

Those few words (a/n: the italics) in the song got him all worked up. Just those words, not the right ones, but words Kagome had sung: Dakishimete, Kimi de hoshiii… Kuchizukete… (A/n: Dakishimete is "Hold me", kimi de hoshii "I want you", Kuchizukete "kiss me")

The video ended showing the black door again, and faded out. A new video started up, Tommy february6's newest single, "Lonely in Gorgeous". Kagome quick paused it, embarrassed for recording such a song. But what could she say? She loved that 80's pop Tommy sang!

"Ah - how stupid! I forgot to ask - do you want a drink?"

Inuyasha snapped out of his little trance, kicking himself mentally for being such a space case. "Uh, sure."

"Okay. We only have coke… Hope that's okay."

Kagome went to open the door, turning the gold knob, but the door wouldn't open. She looked up and saw Inuyasha's clawed hand pressed against it. She turned around saying, "C'mon Inuyasha, what are you do -"

She was cut off with a soft peck from Inuyasha's own lips. They looked at each other in disbelieffor what seemed like eons.

Kagome's heart was melting. She had just been kissed by her crush, her Inuyasha! But what was she supposed to do now? She'd never been kissed before. Sure, she talked big, but she never really experienced anything like that. It was like Sango said: being emo means to not date… or something like that. And Inuyasha wasn't giving her a hint on anything. He was just as silent as she.

Inuyasha's brain was melting. What the hell was going on? Kagome had a blank expression on! He couldn't tell if she liked it or not! What was he supposed to do now? He would kiss her again, oh God, he wanted to.. But he refused to do it. She probably didn't want to do it anyway.

He did one thing he thought would work either way. "I'm sorry…" he said while backing up.

"Don't be," she managed, blushing.

"No, it was stupid of me. I shouldn't have done it. You probably think I'm a creep. You probably hate me now."

She shook her head. "No, I don't hate you. I kinda… I kinda like you more… A lot more…" There! It was out! Now she only had to wait and see his reaction.

"You do? Because," he paused, stepping closer to Kagome who was still standing right at the door. "I like you a lot more too." He slowly and awkwardly wrapped his arms around the girl. The look in her eyes, it said to him that it was alright. She actually liked this. He pushed his mouth against her own, tasting her for the first time. He felt her smile in this kiss, and he smiled too. As she wrapped her arms around his neck, he pushed her against the door, making their bodies closer than ever.

Kagome didn't know how to kiss. But this just felt so natural. She just did whatever came to her head, and she tried to do what she thought they did on the movies. She started to open her mouth, and Inuyasha's tongue dived into her mouth, playing around with her tongue ring. This was the moment she'd been waiting for. This could last forever, for all she cared.

And that's when she remembered that she couldn't breathe.

Kagome tried to be nonchalant and break the kiss off gracefully, which she accomplished. It's just that then she practically gasped for breath and choked on the new air.

"What's wrong, forget to breath?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I did. I'm sorry for never being kissed before."

"You've never been kissed before? I would've never guessed. Not only because you're good at it, but… You're too pretty, I can't imagine someone not wanting to kiss you."

"Okay, Romeo. What a flirtsy line. You don't have to say that stuff for me."

"But I mean it!"

"Oh, sure, sure…" She smiled and rested her head on his nicely toned chest. He blushed, but immediately put his claws around her waist.

"Kagome… Look here."

Kagome looked up, only to feel Inuyasha's lips pressing onto hers again, and she almost giggled with joy. And then both of their heart's stopped.

"Kagomeeeeee! We're home early! The other team got disqualified for hacking into the system and changing all the points around! Come downstairs, we're getting WacDonald's!"

"Oh my god. That's my mom. You need to get out of here, quick."

"HOW?" Inuyasha was in more of a panic than she was. He never met her mother, and he was sure Kagome would get in so much trouble if her mom knew she was having boys over when she was alone.

"The window!" She ran over to it and pulled up the blinds. She struggled pullingthe windowup. "I can't… get it…"

"Move over," Inuyasha ordered, his bad attitude taking it's place back in his personality. He pressed on the pane and it popped open, and Inuyasha started climbing out, stepping carefully on the branch. "Listen."

"Hm?"

"You better not say a word of what happened tonight to anyone. If you do, it'll destroy my reputation. People can't know that I've been making out with Miss Emo Kid, or I'll be toast."

"You're kidding me. Either you were just messing with me in there because you were horny, or you're a real jerk!" She slammed the window down with more force than she had a minute ago. 'Damn... he moved his fingers.'

Inuyasha sat outside, staring at her as she let the blinds back down. 'Shit. I didn't mean it like that… Why do I have to be such an ass all the time? Maybe I am just a jerk…' He jumped down the tree, and headed home, thinking about how he needed to change his act… somehow.

Back up in her room, Kagome wiped away a tear. 'How could he do that to me? Making me think we actually may have something going. I hate him! He's such a jerk! And the worst part is that I can't give up. I need to get him to ask me to the Easter Dance.' She sighed.

"Kagome, dear, are you coming? What's wrong?"

"Oh… nothing. I just got done discovering that my From First To Last CD got scratched and now it doesn't work." Lies just rolled off her tongue lately.

"Oh. Well let's get going dear. If it means that much to you, I'll buy you a new one."

"Thanks, mom." 'If only she could buy Inuyasha a new brain.'

XOXOX

A/N: Well… That's that! Inuyasha's a real jerk, ne? I'm gonna go now… It's 10 o'clock on a school night, and I'm going to a concert tomorrow. I need my energy.
