(A.N. /Yawns/ I was going to say something but I can't remember what it was... Oh I have 254 reviews now! YAY! I feel special. I remember what I was going to say now! Ummmm... yeah I'm going to change the way the review replies work because it's taking up too much space. I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet... hmmm... how about if you want your review replied to tell me in said review. And everyone else I'll just make a list of people that reviewed. Sooo right now I'll reply to some and make a list of others... And don't think I don't like you if I don't reply to you. I just don't have enough space. And I'm sure you'd rather me spend more time on the chapters instead of the review replies.
drvnkrazee-
Me: You'll figure it out soon enough. /is mysterious/
Veithunnie-
Me: Ok I'll put them on a date but I can't guarantee that it will be romantic. I'm not good at romantic stuff... I almost punched a guy for holding a door open for me... hehe.
Black-Spectre- I might as well reply to all the reviews that you've made... I'm glad you remembered your password /laughs/ You don't like the "Series of Unfortunate Events" books? Jacob does. I guess if you don't watch the show you wouldn't know who Rin is... Basically her parent's died and Sesshomaru took care of her after that. But I changed that in my fic because Sesshomaru is only in high school in my fic. I'm not killing Kagome or Rose. Before you said you weren't a pervert... hehe I knew you were lying! And no the chapters never end/laughs/ I actually don't know how this will end. Do you know that it annoys me when people say "update soon!"? Well it does.

Chapter 24:
/Kagome's POV/
"Why don't we go on a date?" I say spontaneously as Sesshomaru and I are doing homework
He looks at me and raises an eyebrow. That always makes me mad!
"I'm serious!" I say and glare at him
"Where do you propose we go?" He asks plainly
I think about it for a minute. I really hadn't thought about where. I just wanted to go on a real date with my boyfriend. It really isn't much to ask.
"Ummm how about that restaurant that just opened... I can't remember that name but they're having a grand opening and it shouldn't be too expensive."
"Acceptable."
I almost laugh. He talks funny... I'm not going to tell him that though. That would be mean.
"Well I'm going to go home and change my clothes! You should probably change your clothes too. Nothing too dressy. I'm soo happy!" I say and run the couple of blocks home
/Sesshomaru's POV/
'What a strange girl.' I think with a slight smile on my face
/Kagome's POV/
I get home and burst through the door and skip up to my room. I haven't been this happy in a while.
I open my closet door and search though the colossal jumble of clothes. This is going to be difficult.
"Jeans, t-shirt, baggy pants, more jeans, ooo I haven't seen that shirt in a while." I say as I search for something appropriate to wear. Then I find a pretty dress I'm sure my mom made me get a while ago. 'This will have to do.' I think as I go into my bathroom, throw on the dress and put a little bit of makeup on.
I put my hair up for good measure, and look at myself in the mirror.
"Ahhhh! I look... cute!"
I quickly run back into my room and rummage through my closet to find something to make me not look like that anymore. I can't find anything else even vaguely dressy.
"DAMNIT!" I yell and walk out of the house to find Sesshomaru sitting in his car waiting for me.
"You look... different." He says
"Don't rub it in." I say sourly
I look at Sesshomaru and notice he looks amazing! He is wearing a dress shirt that is that is maroon like the strips on his face. And he is wearing black pants. 'Well at least one of us managed not to look stupid.'
/Kagome's POV at the restaurant/
After we order the food there is an awkward silence. 'What are we going to talk about?'
"Ummm... How is Rin doing?" I ask
"She is doing good. Her wounds are healing sufficiently."
"What about her father?"
"Rin's mother put a restraining order on him. He can not come anywhere near either of them, or their house."
"That's good." And more awkward silence...
"Soooo... ummm..." awkward silence, awkward silence, awkward silence, awkward silence, I hate awkward silence.
"Kagome! What are you doing here?" A voice asks way too cheerily
'Oh damnit!'
"Hi Hojo..." I say cautiously
I hear Sesshomaru growl and I look at him to get him to be quiet. I don't think he even knew he was growling.
"Hi Kagome! How is your arthritis?"
'Why does grandpa have to tell him that! I told him to make an excuse up so that I didn't have to go on a date with Hojo.'
"What are you talking about Kagome is in perfect health."
'Shoot! I forgot about Sesshomaru for a second!'
"But Kagome's grandfather said-"
"Hojo! Don't you have to be somewhere?" I say quickly
"Umm no I don't think so..."
'Dam I thought that would work'
"Well I'm on a date so..."
"You're on a date with this guy?"
'I do not like the way he said that.'
"Yes! I am on a date with this guy. And he just happens to be my boyfriend so GET LOST HOJO!"
Hojo's eyes get really wide and he looks at me and says "I thought you were nicer than that Kagome." Before he runs away
/Sesshomaru's POV/
"You're on a date with this guy?"
I was about to hip that Hobo boys head off when Kagome says
"Yes! I am on a date with this guy. And he just happens to be my boyfriend so GET LOST HOJO!"
I smirk at "Hojo"
"I thought you were nicer than that Kagome."
I growl at him menacingly and he runs away
/Kagome's POV/
"Well I'm glad that's over with. I never really liked Hojo anyway." I say and sigh
"I don't like him either." Sesshomaru says looking in the direction Hojo ran.
"Well that's kind of obvious." I say and laugh
"You never dated him did you?" Sesshomaru asks seriously
"No way! We were friends when we were little but when we got into high school he developed a crush on me and I've had to ask my grandpa to make up reasons I couldn't go on a date with him."
"So that why there is a rumor that you have all kinds of diseases."
"Yup. Hojo told everyone I had problems. And that just added to the evidence that I'm weird."
(A.N. I know way to short of a chapter for how long it took. I was running out of inspiration and I really didn't want to make a date. Do you all hate me now? I hope not. Umm I drew a picture of Rin with a Sesshomaru plushi. If you want to see it there's a link on my profile. PLEASE DON'T HATE ME! And review! Hehe I know this chapter sucks but bear with me please, I'm lacking inspiration. I aslo wrote a poem if you'd like to read it the link is also on my profile. Please check out a poem my mom wrote too she is much better at writing poetry than me.)
