Chapter Five
Note: Okay this is where still gets really weird. I wasn't sure if I was going to put this, but Jonni-chan, BeckyZoom and Inuyasha said they'd still read even if I put some cough interesting stuff in there. But hey everyone has their little quarks about them. These are just a few of mine. Anyways Inuyasha I think people would really want to see you do the chicken dance. Enjoy.
Inuyasha and I have lately been hitting it off. We have long in depth conversations at night and we play games with Miroku, Sango and Shippo during the day. We finally get to know each other. But it looks like we aren't the only ones getting along. Sango and Miroku are spending "alone time" together. I'm not going to ask. I'm not quite sure I want to know. I decide to keep my identity as a teenager from the future a secret. I will tell them when I am ready.
Kagome was schedule to come back sometime today, around when the sunsets. Miroku, Shippo, Sango, Inuyasha and I went back to Kaede village to go greet her for when she gets back. Shippo went to go color with the other village children and Sango pulls me aside. "Um Lady Mimi," she starts.
"What is it Sango-Chan?" I turn to look at her face to see she is blushing madly. She is biting her fingernails out of nerve.
"Is there anyway you and Inuyasha could leave us alone today." I raise one of my eyebrows. "I'm sure you guys could play one of your games by yourself today can't you?" I raise my other eyebrow. They are in danger of disappearing into my bangs. "It's just," she stutters. I've never heard Sango act so nervous before. "Miroku and I want to spend some time alone with each other today." I stumble over my feet and gawp at her. Sango….Alone….With Miroku! "Would that be alright with you Mimi?"
"Ah…sure…" I say as I rub the back of my head. I am sure Sango can take care of herself if that lecher tries anything too perverted. So I went to the open field near the bone eaters well. I sit there while the cool breeze blows through my body. It is a nice warm summer's day and it feels good to cool off. I watch as the birds dance around each other and the butterflies flitter by and landing on flowers. Everything is so peaceful here, not like the place I grew up. Even if I did hear a bird over the roaring sounds of cars, it would be the ugly cawing of black crows.
I have a song stuck in my mind and I move my toes to the beat but that isn't enough. I heard the only way to get a song out of your mind was to sing and get it stuck in somebody else's mind. Well Inuyasha isn't here so I tried singing to myself. (I'm singing in English)
"I want to change the world, keep on holding on your desire. You will get our shining love. That you can't wait to know if you go on to get your goal it's wonderland!"
"What are you singing?" asks a voice. I fall over in fright. I hope nobody just heard me sing. I turn to see Inuyasha right up close to my face, blinking at me. "What were you singing? It's hard to understand some of it."
"Because I was singing in English." He blinks. I might as well tell him. "I come from America. My family was renting a hotel room in Japan because I got into an arts program for school. So while I learn all the normal stuff at an extreme pace, I'm also learning how art has something to do with it." (Oh yeah, that's my school. )
"Oh. Well then that's why your English sounded good. You're pretty good at speaking Japanese, but you have a strange accent."
"Well," I start as I put on my glasses. He begins to blush at the sight of me. "What can you say? I just learned Japanese; I haven't had that much practice on annunciation. But thanks I guess, just an old habit. Sometimes I mutter and sing to myself and I don't realize when I'm doing it." I laugh. We both lie back onto the grass as another gust of wind blows through us. I sigh. "I know why you're doing this, Inuyasha." I sit up. He turns to his side and looks at me. "I know why you're being so nice." I slump my head down so he can't see my face. "You're doing this because Kagome is making you do this."
"Well yeah," I knew it... I feel a little jab at my heart. Of course, he won't talk to me by his own free will. Kagome's putting him up to this. I should have known better. "I mean wouldn't you." I stare at him.
"Maybe."
"I mean she sits me all the time. I wish I could take these beads off."
"Wow I thought I'd never see the day that a dog would be pussy-wiped."
"What's a pussy?" …
"It's like a cat. You know that animal that you play with at Kagome's house."
"Ah," he says. I laugh.
"I love cats. I always pretended I was one when I was little. I would put on cat ears and run around my house and yell 'Meow'!" At that moment Inuyasha pounces on me. We both are blushing. He quickly gets off me and we turn away from each other. "What was that about?"
"I don't know." he stutters. "Just something about when you said "meow" made me wanna jump on you." There is an awkward silence. We sit there staring at the brilliant blue sky. It is several minutes before Inuyasha decides to speak again. "I wanted to talk to you before this you know." I turn to see his amber eyes are staring back me. My stomach is doing back flips. "I guess I was kinda nervous. I like you Mimi." My heart is skipping beats every second. I won't be shocked if I died from a heart attack. "Every woman I've liked has broken my heart one way or another."
"What's wrong with Kagome?"
"I dunno. Maybe it's just me, but I think she likes Koga more."
"I'm pretty sure she doesn't." I say sadly and turn away. I felt a hand on my chin and it turned my head around. Inuyasha was inches away from my face. My face is burning with heat from all the blood rushing to it. He tilts my head as his lips come closer to mine. He gently kisses me as I feel my whole body feel so light that I could float to the sky. My heart is racing, my palms are sweaty, and I have no idea what to do! When we end our kiss I turn my face away so he can't see me. I am blushing like crazy. I touch my lips as I think to myself Inuyasha kissed me…I must be the luckiest woman in the world right now…
"I'm sorry for ignoring you Mimi." Once my body returns to normal I turn back around to look at him.
"It's alright, I understand."
"No it's not. Too make it up to you I will do one thing." I think I've set a new record for the most blushing done in ten minutes. One thing, what is one thing I would make him do?
"Well…I've always wanted you to do…..THE CHICKEN DANCE!" (Oh you perverts, you know me. I wouldn't do that with Inuyasha evil smile at least not yet. Hint if you were thinking what I would have been thinking it happens in chapter seven.)
"What the in the seven hells! What is the Chicken dance!"
"You don't know the chicken dance? Here let me show you." I get up to my feet. I take a deep breath before yelling, "I DON'T WANNA BE A CHIKEN! I DON'T WANNA BE A DUCK! SO I SHAKE MY BUTT!" and I clapped three times. I smile at Inuyasha, but he does not look pleased.
"I am not doing that."
"But you said you would." I tilt my head and give him the big chibi eyes.
"Nope not buying it." I sniff and look really sad.
"You're not going to cry over something this stupid. Ah come on."
"Come on do it for me. I'll do it with you." I keep trying to pull him up.
"Fine, fine, fine I'll do it with you. But hurry before anyone sees us." He gets up with me and he gives me an evil glare before saying really fast. "Idon'twannabeachickenIdon'twannabeaducksoIshakemybutt. Clap, clap, clap, clap. There you happy."
"Uh huh." I nod. I smile at him but he only grumbles. He sits down on the ground and I join him by his side. "Oh come on it wasn't that bad. Here." I lean forward and kiss him on the cheek and he blushes. He leans forward closer to kiss me when we both heard Kagome yelling from behind us.
"Inuyasha, Mimi-Chan, I'm back!" Damn, she's back early.
I quickly stow away my glasses and we both act casual.
"Where are Miroku, Sango and Shippo?"
"I think back at the village." I say.
"What were you two doing?"
"What did it look like we were doing, we were talking."
"Oh," she says in excitement. "I'm glad you two are finally getting along." She hugs Inuyasha and my inside burn with jealousy. But I am now closer to Inuyasha than she was when she left and that filled my heart with satisfaction.
