Her fingers brushed over the fabric of the dress as she stared at herself in the mirror. It was a tight, black bondage dress, that hugged all of her curves; spaghetti straps held the dress up, although she was sure the dress would look just as beautiful without the straps. The neckline was straight across, and it had a small slit at the thigh. She liked how the dress accentuated her thighs that Sango affectionately called 'thunder thighs' as a result of her workout routine. Kagome gave herself a small smile in the mirror, as she turned to look at the back side of the dress. She was in love with it, though her smile faltered as she realized that she may only wear this dress once.
"To play the part, one must look the part!" Miroku said to Kagome, pushing her into the Nordstrom. Inuyasha rolled his eyes as he and Sango trailed behind them.
Kagome remembered his words now, as she looked herself over in the dress. She heard a soft rapping at the dressing room door, and Sango's voice followed. "Kagome, are you ready?" Sango called, and Kagome sighed.
"Come out already!" Inuyasha yelled from the couch of the dressing area, and Kagome rolled her eyes at the sound of his voice. It had only been a few days since this ordeal started (she accepted the offer formally on Monday after much deliberation over the weekend, they signed the contract Tuesday and Thursday they headed out to the mall). Kagome took a deep breath and walked out of the dressing room and stepped out in front of her friend and new 'boyfriend'. Sango gave Kagome a bright smile, and clapped her hands together lightly, giving her friend her seal of approval. Miroku nodded beside Sango and smiled at Kagome.
"Very nice choice Kagome." Miroku said, and then glanced down at Inuyasha who lazed on the couch in front of her. He cleared his throat, "wouldn't you agree, Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked up at the sound of his name.
His eyes widened at the sight of Kagome. Up until then, he hadn't seen Kagome in any 'formal' clothing, or dresses. Only tight shirts and leggings or jeans. He looked at her up and down, and then again. He made a motion with his finger for Kagome to spin around, and she did. Sango glared at him, while Miroku had a smug smile on his face. After taking in Kagome's appearance, he looked down at his phone and shrugged, causing Miroku and Sango to slump their shoulders in defeat. "Make's you look fat." He reared at her. Kagome grumbled at him, causing Inuyasha to raise his eyebrows at her. "Just being honest." He mumbled, and went back to scrolling through his phone, disconnecting from the situation. Kagome gave him the middle finger as she stomped into the dressing room. She looked fine, Inuyasha thought as he tried to ignore the glares of Sango and Miroku. He glanced over his shoulder, and swore that he could see flames in both Miroku and Sango's eyes. "What?" he asked dryly, arching an eyebrow at them. He knew very well what they were thinking, he didn't need an answer from the pair. He huffed at them, and went back to his Instagram.
Kagome emerged again from the dressing room, and her new dress instantly caught the attention of Inuyasha. His eyes trailed down her body. She wore a red flowy dress, with slits going up along both legs. The sleeves were long, and resembled a chiffon blouse, the neckline was high; a loose bow tied with the same chiffon material of the sleeves was on the left side of her neck. The dress was long, but not excessively. It was appropriate for his event. "Wow." Inuyasha uttered under his breath. He felt Miroku shake him by the shoulder, and he ignored him. He watched as Kagome giggled with Sango in front of the mirrors, and kicked her leg out to one side, pretending to model. His eyes trailed up her leg, and appreciated the thickness of her thighs, and his eyes locked with Kagome's in the mirror. "Uh," he started loudly, getting up. "I think this one is nice." Inuyasha said simply, and sauntered out of the dressing room area. The three friends watched as the half demon walked out of the dressing room, and then shared a look.
"Kagome you look gorgeous!" Sango squealed at her friend, and gave her a hug. Kagome beamed a smile back toward Sango and looked at herself in the mirror. Miroku came up behind the girls and draped an arm over each of their shoulders. Both of the girls stiffened in their spots. Sango's face changed as Miroku's hand slid down to her backside, and rubbed against it. "You fucking pervert!" Sango yelled, and turned around, slapping Miroku in the process. Miroku sighed as he rubbed his cheek. "When are you going to learn!?" She yelled at him, and struck him on the head with her fist, before stomping out of the dressing room area herself. Miroku looked up at Kagome, and she held her hand out to him. She knew exactly what Miroku was about to say, and frankly she didn't want to hear it.
Kagome picked up the sides of her dress and hurried into the dressing room, locking the door behind her. I know we locked eyes, Kagome thought, as she carefully took off the dress and placed it back on its hanger. Her mind wandered back to a few minutes ago; Inuyasha looked at her with a different look in his famous golden eyes. There was no disgust, or annoyance this time. There was appreciation. Kagome shook her head. "He's a guy." Kagome said to herself, as she pulled on her black legging, hobbling around the dressing room. She pulled her green shirt over her head and pulled on her black shoes. Giving herself one last look in the mirror, Kagome grabbed her mini book-bag where she carried her wallet and whatever else she had in her purse that was essential. She carefully grabbed the delicate dress, and draped it over her arm. She stepped out of the dressing room, and quickly shuffled over to her friends. She smiled at Miroku and Sango, "I need heels for this." Kagome said, holding up the arm that had the dress draped over it. She looked around, and furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "Where's Inuyasha?" She asked, tilting her head to one side slightly.
Sango also furrowed her eyebrows and looked around. "Huh, that's weird." She elbowed Miroku slightly, causing him to look up from his phone. What is it with these men and their phones? Sango wondered, mildly annoyed. Miroku shrugged his shoulders at the girls, and Sango groaned. "Gee, thanks for the help." She said dryly and linked arms with Kagome. "C'mon, I think you need a pair of heels for this dress." She muttered to her friend as they walked in the direction of the shoe section. Kagome laughed and nodded.
"Hey, wait!" Miroku called after the girls. "I'm sure Inuyasha is just looking at clothes or something!" Miroku said, walking behind the girls. Kagome rolled her eyes and looked over her shoulder at Miroku, who followed closely behind the girls. Miroku took note of the look in her eyes, and took a step back.
"Why was that so hard for you to say earlier?" Kagome said, and huffed turning her head back in the direction they were walking.
Miroku rolled his eyes at the girls, but followed quietly behind them as they entered the shoe section. He figured that the women would be in this section of the store for a while, and so he made himself comfortable on a nearby couch as Kagome and Sango began to look at heels. He looked around the shoe section, in the direction of the men's section and looked confused. "Where could Inuyasha have run off to?" Miroku wondered aloud, scratching his head. "Maybe he went to another store." He concluded, shrugging his shoulders. Either way, Inuyasha couldn't have gone far, he thought as he went back to distracting himself by playing a game on his phone.
"Kagome, what about these?" Sango asked as she held up a pair of black heels. Kagome scrunched her face up, as if to say 'no'. Sango shrugged and put them back. Sango glanced over the heel selection in the store. It was extensive, and each pair looked more expensive than the last. Her hand danced delicately over the heels, until her eyes landed on a pair of nude, red bottom pumps. "Kagome." Sango said, and walked up to her friend with the heel in hand. "What about this pair?" She asked, holding it out to Kagome. Kagome smiled when she saw them, and grabbed it in her hand, she examined it and then let a large smile break out over her face.
"Yes! These are perfect!" She said warmly, hugging her friend. "I think I have a gold clutch somewhere in our apartment that I can use as my purse for the night, and I have that dangly pair of earrings you gave me for Christmas!" Kagome explained, mentally checking things off of her list. Sango smiled at Kagome, clapping her hands in excitement.
"You're going to be breathe-taking, Kagome." Sango said, taking the heel back from Kagome. "I'm going to go get these in your size." She said, and turned on her heel, walking toward an attendant. Kagome turned her attention toward Miroku, and walked over to him, tapping him on the shoulder. Miroku looked up from his game, partially shocked at how quickly they were able to settle on a shoe.
"Hey, any word on Inuyasha?" Kagome asked him, sitting down beside him on the couch as she waited for Sango to come back with the shoes. Miroku shook his head at her. "Where the fuck could he be?" Kagome wondered, biting her thumb. Miroku glanced over at her, and tried to suppress a chuckle.
She's worried...that's interesting, Miroku thought to himself. "Stop worrying Kagome. Your prince in shining grappling gloves will be back." Miroku teased, gently bumping his shoulder into Kagome's. Kagome looked at Miroku with a disgusted look. "What you weren't worried just now?" He deadpanned. Kagome sighed, and leaned into his ear.
"No! People are giving us weird looks!" Kagome whispered, causing Miroku to look around them. Ne noticed a few women exchanging looks and whispering to each other. "I think they're talking about us." Kagome said, as she glanced around her. Sango approached them with the shoes, and Kagome quickly pulled her down to sit next to her. Sango yelped, before Kagome leaned into her, and whispered the same thing. "I want to leave!" She added, pulling away from Sango with pleading eyes.
"Inuyasha!" Miroku called, causing the women in the area to turn in Inuyasha's direction. His sunglasses were pushed up, onto his head behind his ears, and he carried a small bag in his hand. His usual hard expression in his eyes. "There you are! Kagome was starting to get worried." Miroku said, earning himself a glare from Kagome.
"Yeah, where did you go?" Sango asked him, standing from her spot. She noticed the whispering increasing and the creepy looks from the women around them increased.
"Getting something." Inuyasha muttered coldly, and handed Kagome the small bag he brought with him. Kagome stared at the bag for a second. "Oh, for fucks sake, Kagome, just take the damn bag!" He shouted at Kagome. Miroku placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder, looking around them.
"Inuyasha, people are staring at her and talking. She's nervous. You aren't helping your image right now, either." He whispered to his friend. Inuyasha groaned.
For fucks sake, I damage my image just by breathing now, Inuyasha thought irritably. He didn't respond to Miroku. "Did you pay for the shoes and dress yet?" He asked Kagome, taking the shoe box from Sango. He looked down at the brand. Christian Louboutin! First, she wants a million dollars, now she wants this? Inuyasha thought, while looking at Miroku. He remembered with scorn how he told Kagome that she had to 'look the part' if she was to act it. Kagome looked up at him and shook her head.
"No, not yet. We were waiting for you." Kagome said, finally finding her voice. She takes the small bag out of Inuyasha's hand. It felt slightly heavy. Confused, she followed him out of the shoe area. "What's this?" Kagome asked him. She quickened her pace to catch up with the man. She glanced back at Miroku, who mouthed to her to hold his hand. Kagome widened her eyes at him. "No way!" She mouthed. Miroku glared at her. "I have to hold your hand now." Kagome whispered to the dog demon. He glanced over at her.
"It's perfume- and you have to what?" He answered her question, while simultaneously asking his own. He glanced back at Miroku and Sango. "What the fuck, dude!" He mouthed to his friend, who shot a glare at him as well. Rolling his eyes in annoyance, Inuyasha reaches toward Kagome's hand, and takes her delicate hand in his, intertwining their fingers. Kagome didn't react at all, aside from giving his hand a gentle squeeze.
"Geez, I told him to hold it." Miroku uttered, rubbing the back of his neck. He was slightly surprised that Inuyasha took it one step further by intertwining their fingers. He looked over at Sango, who walked quietly beside him. "So... Sango..."
"Don't get any ideas." Sango said abruptly, staring at Kagome and Inuyasha's hands. "Inuyasha's a good actor." Sango said, tilting her head. Miroku looked at her, puzzled. "He bought her something, holding the shoes for her, interlocking their fingers?" Sango shook her head. Miroku raised his eyebrows.
"Why don't you and I act?" Miroku asked Sango, smirking at her. Sango groaned and rolled her eyes. "Still no?" Miroku asked again, sighing. "Very well then, I'll stop trying for today." Miroku stopped when he realized they were at a register.
Inuyasha placed the shoes and the dress down on the large counter, and then looked up at the woman behind the register. Perhaps she hadn't realized that Inuyasha noticed her staring, or she hadn't realized that she was staring at Inuyasha. Either way, it made him feel uncomfortable and he cleared his throat to get her attention. "Do your job, and stop staring." Inuyasha growled at her, startling the woman into action. Kagome glared up at him from his side.
"I'm sorry about that." Kagome said quickly, shooting Inuyasha another glare his way, "he's a bit moody today." She said smiling, patting him on the chest with one hand. Through gritted teeth and a quiet voice, she said to Inuyasha, "if you're gonna act, I'm gonna act too." Inuyasha exhaled heavily, reaching into his pocket to take out his wallet. He pulled out a credit card.
"What's the damage?" Inuyasha asked, completely ignoring the way Kagome was still leaning into him, her nails brushing against his skin through his shirt.
"Two thousand six hundred ninety-five dollars, with forty cents." The woman said, Sango cursed behind Inuyasha and Kagome and Miroku coughed, clear expressions that they weren't expecting the dress and shoes to cost as much as it did. Kagome cursed internally as she glanced over at Inuyasha who merely slid his credit card on the card reader.
I definitely should have asked for more money, Kagome thought, smiling as the bag was handed over to her. They turned away from the counter and made their way out of the store, still holding hands. Once out of the store, Kagome looked up at Inuyasha who seemed to be in deep thought, as he barely talked all day. "So... why are you so popular?" she asked, his ears flickered at the sound of her voice and her stomach did a flip. God, those ears!
"What?" Inuyasha asked her, as they walked through the mall, Kagome noticed that more people seemed to stare at them, although this time it was all types of people. Teenage boys, women, kids, older people. "Well I'm best at my job." He said, matter-of-factly. Kagome blinked at him and sighed. "What?"
"No I mean why are you so popular...in general?" Kagome asked, prompting a bizarre look from Inuyasha.
"You're making no sense right now wench." Inuyasha scoffed at her, out of the corner of his eye he noticed a camera flashing and he groaned. "Great." He muttered, turned back to Miroku. "Hey, Miroku! We've got company." He said to his friend, as he noticed that the camera's flash had attracted a small group of people.
Kagome didn't get a chance to react to Inuyasha's comment, as the small group of people moved toward them. She squeezed Inuyasha's hand causing him to look down at her and smirk. She hadn't expected for the first time she be swarmed with camera to be now. In all actuality she was expecting this to happen on Saturday, and in the year following after Saturday.
"Inuyasha!" A voice called out from the crowd, prompting Inuyasha to tighten his jaw. "Inuyasha what are you going to do about your latest arrest?"
'Inuyasha is this girl your new lover?' Kagome snorted at the comment. Lover? Really?
"Inuyasha how do you feel about Saturday's fight?" Inuyasha smiled at the camera held by the person who asked the question.
"I feel great about the fight coming up. I've been training hard, day in and day out and I'm positive it'll be a thirty second knockout ordeal." Inuyasha responded confidently, as he and Kagome walked past the crowd, but they swarmed around them once more. He growled lowly in annoyance, and pulled Kagome closer to him. "Stay close." He said lowly, Kagome nodded in response. Inuyasha looked back at Miroku and Sango, who were following closely behind himself and Kagome. He planted himself in one spot, and put his sunglasses on, smiling at the cameras and answering their questions, every once in a while, he would glance down at Kagome. He slipped his hand around her waist and pulled her closer to his body, prompting a look of surprise from Kagome.
"How did you meet her?" One person asked, Inuyasha recognized the face, although he couldn't quite remember what magazine or gossip website they were from. Miroku came up behind Inuyasha and Kagome with Sango, and gently shoved the crowd away from them, so they wouldn't crowd around them as much. Sango stared at Inuyasha, amazed. It seemed as though he was a completely different person in front of cameras. He was charming...almost.
"There's a café near my apartment building that I really like. She was there almost every day. I thought she was so gorgeous," he looked down at Kagome, brushing the back of his hand against her cheek, "I just couldn't not ask her out." he chuckled. Kagome, realizing what Inuyasha was doing, stared up at him, making eye contact. Inuyasha stared back at her, with a softened gaze, like the one he gave her back when they were in the dressing room. He noticed the specks of faint green in Kagome's eyes.
"Wow..." Sango breathed. He's fucking unbelievable, she thought, amazed. She looked toward Miroku, who seemed relieved that Inuyasha was playing along so well, and so early in the fake relationship. Snapping out of his thoughts, Miroku decided Inuyasha had had enough time in front of the cameras, lest he go and do something stupid.
"Okay! That's enough for today!" Miroku hollered, as he and Sango pushed people away from Inuyasha and Kagome, making way for them to move. "We have a very busy schedule and have to get doing! Move! Now! Go!" Miroku yelled, motioning for everyone to disperse.
Quickly Inuyasha grabbed Kagome by the wrist, and walked quickly toward the parking garage, Miroku and Sango followed very quickly after; having staved off the reporters and paparazzi. Miroku walked along side Inuyasha, and Sango alongside Kagome. Inuyasha looked over his shoulder one last time, before letting go of Kagome's hand, and stuffing his hands into his pocket. "Nice work." He uttered to Kagome, as they walked out of the mall and into the parking garage.
"You too." Kagome uttered back to him. "The brushing of the hand against my cheek was a nice touch." Kagome commented, praising Inuyasha for being quick on his feet. "You put up a good act."
"I agree," Miroku said, from beside Inuyasha. Inuyasha looked over at him. "People are eating it up, they love you two together." He added, Inuyasha gave his friend a sarcastic smile.
"Glad that's making you happy, Miroku." Inuyasha said bitterly, as he pulled his car keys out of his pocket. Miroku rolled his eyes.
"Inuyasha if you keep acting like that they might expect you two to get married by the end of the year." Inuyasha lashed out at his friend suddenly, punching him on the head. Miroku winced, rubbing the part on his head that Inuyasha punched.
"You kinda of deserved that." Sango said dryly, following Inuyasha and Kagome to his car. "Where are we going now?" Sango asked, and Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders.
"I dunno…eat or somethin'". He glanced back at Miroku, who walked slowly toward the red Mercedes. Shaking his head, he opened the trunk and took Kagome's bags from her hands and tossed them into the trunk, he shut it and got in the car. Sango let herself into the back of the car.
"Kagome you should sit in the front." Miroku said as he approached the car. Kagome looked at him, confused. He sighed. Wow she really doesn't know anything about the logistics of this. He thought, and mentally shrugged his shoulders. "If there was paparazzi inside, theres paparazzi outside, if there isn't any in the parking garage already— so just hurry up and sit in the front." Miroku said, and got into the backseat on the other side.
So, this is what my life has come to? Kagome wondered, as she sighed heavily and got into the passengers seat. Miroku leaned forward between the passengers seat and drivers seat. "You guys should hold hands." He suggested, "or Kagome, if you see flashing lights why don't you pretend like you're playing with his ears or something?" Kagome smiles at Miroku. Finally! She thought, internally celebrating, the moment I've been waiting for! Inuyasha pressed into the brakes abruptly, and looked back at Miroku.
"My ears are off limits." Inuyasha snarled, he pinned his ears down and looked over at Kagome. "I've seen you stare at them," he spat, earning an innocent and confused look from Kagome, "don't give me that shit. You aren't touching them." Kagome groaned on the inside, and glanced back at Sango, who shared a sad look with her friend. "Besides- don't you think they'll think we're trying a little too hard to appear in love and shit?" Inuyasha asked, as he continued to drive. Miroku shook his head, leaning back into his seat. "I mean for fucks sake I just brushed the back of my hand against this wench's face." Inuyasha shuddered in his seat, as Kagome glared at him. I can't believe I did that, Inuyasha thought, mentally gagging. Her skin was soft, I'll give her that much.
"Not at all. You guys just started 'dating', remember that. You're supposed to seem obsessed with each other." Miroku emphasized obsessed. Obsessed, he thought, is what I am with trying to get your image back in good standing so we don't go broke! "You're in the cupcake phase!" Miroku exclaimed, and Sango rolled her eyes as she stared out the window of the car. Inuyasha glared at Miroku through the rear-view mirror.
"The what?"
"The cupcake phase! The phase where you're super obsessed with each other and all you want to do is make out and touch and all that gross stuff." Miroku said, twiddling his fingers as he looked between the two. Kagome turned in her seat, looking back at Miroku.
"Gross." She said, and then looked at Sango, "you hear this? Cupcake phase." She scoffed, crossing her arms as they approached the exit of the parking garage. She noticed a person walking toward the car from outside the parking garage as Inuyasha rolled down his window to pay the fee. She quickly turned to him, and gently put her hand on his thigh. She looked up at Inuyasha and noticed a rose tinge that came onto his cheeks. Aw, he's blushing, Kagome thought as she smiled at him. She then reached up with one hand, and started to rub his ear. "There's someone with a camera." She whispered, seeing the look of confusion on Inuyasha's face.
"Oh." He said, and began smiling. "We're eating Italian." Inuyasha announced, as they turned away from the parking garage and the person with the camera. He couldn't quite tell if they were a paparazzi, or a fan, or a reporter of some sort. Those types of people took on all types of forms, and after a while they just all mushed together in his memory. Anyone who wasn't in his entourage or inner circle was just a gossip journalist or fan to him. It was just how fame worked. Once he was sure they were out of the person's sight, he swatted Kagome's hand away from his ear and jerked his thigh away from her. "Don't ever touch me like that again." Inuyasha snarled at Kagome, tightening his grip around the wheel.
"Well, it's what I was hired to do you fucking imbecile!" Kagome yelled at him, crossing her arms again. Sango sat up in her seat.
"Kagome is right, she was hired to do that." She stated, and shrugged her shoulders. Inuyasha grumbled behind the wheel.
"I don't give a fuck what she was hired to do! She can show her affection for me some other way! Like touching my hair or face." He hollered, turning on the radio. He glanced over at Kagome who glowered at him from her seat. "I don't want your hands anywhere near that area, or my ears. Got that?" His voice took on a demanding tone, as Kagome sunk into her seat.
Geez, this dude is bipolar! Kagome thought, He's impossible! One minute he's happily playing along, the next minute he's yelling at me about where I can touch him. He's unbearable. I can't stand this guy. And then he's going to go and choose where we're going to eat? And no one objects to it! "Well what if I don't want Italian?! You can't just choose without asking everyone!" Kagome yelled at Inuyasha, earning herself an incredulous look from her friends.
"Italian sounds pretty good right now, actually." Sango said, shrugging her shoulders as she looked at her friend. Kagome gave her a bewildered look. "What? Chicken Parm sounds really good right now!" Actually anything does, Sango thought to herself, I'm just really hungry.
"Yeah I agree." Miroku said shrugging his shoulders. "Plus let's not forget Inuyasha just bought you that really expensive dress, and shoes. I think he can choose what we eat for once."
"You guys are unbelievable!" She shrieked, and crossed her arms.
The rest of the car ride went by in awkward silence. Every once in a while Miroku would try to make conversation with the people in the car with him, but Kagome was still fuming, Inuyasha was also agitated, and Sango was sleeping soundly. His eyes trailed down Sango's soft features. She was beautiful when she wasn't attempting to kill him for his advances on her. He smiled to himself as he shook his head. He met Kagome and Sango a few months after he and Inuyasha moved to New York from California, in another attempt to change Inuyasha's ways. In the beginning, their relationship was strictly professional. He would go in every few days with the same order: two large matcha lattes with cinnamon, a bagel with cream cheese and avocado toast on wheat bread. Eventually, that relationship gave way to a friendship. A friendship that was now saving his career, and that of Inuyasha's. He was thankful for Kagome and Sango, who were so quick to open their hearts and lives up to Miroku. A small part of him was sure that money had something to do with it as well, but that was a conversation for another day. "So, Kagome, we leave tonight around 9:30 for Vegas, I'll send a car to pick you up." Miroku announced, causing Kagome to look up from her phone.
"Tonight?" She asked, glancing over at Inuyasha who shrugged at her. She looked over at the time the car had set. It was 3 o'clock in the afternoon. "Oh no," she groaned. "Miroku you really should have said that earlier."
"I have to be there for the weigh in." Inuyasha said nonchalantly, "it's tradition, can't miss it." Kagome groaned again. "We come back Sunday afternoon." He added, in an attempt to ease Kagome's concerns. She pinched the bridge of her nose and now Inuyasha found himself groaning at Kagome. "You complain about everything, you know that?" He said. Miroku ignored them both.
"Okay here's what's going to happen: we leave tonight on the private jet. Tomorrow Inuyasha, his trainer and I are going to go to the weigh in in the morning. You can tag along if you'd like, or you can stay in your hotel room. I am going to warn you, sometimes opponents try to talk shit about family members, girlfriends, anything to annoy the opponent. It's standard. Don't take it to heart." Miroku explained, Kagome listened as his voice took on a very professional, serious tone. "Saturday night, we will go to the arena. That's when you have to wear that dress. Make yourself look attractive, do your hair. Whatever you women do." Miroku glanced at Inuyasha, who looked over to Kagome. Kagome nodded in understanding.
"One last thing," Inuyasha added, as he pulled into the restaurant parking lot. Kagome looked over at him with curiosity. "are you squeamish?" He asked her.
"Not particularly," Kagome said, shaking her head. "Why?"
"There will be a lot of blood. Do you understand?" He said, coldly. "I will be bloody, and sweaty." He said taking off his seatbelt. "You will be front and center next to the octagon. Got that? Miroku will be with you for most of the fight explaining things to you I'm sure. Do. Not. Yell. For the love of god, do not yell at me if I get hit." He pointed a finger at Kagome.
"Yeah, that's another thing, don't scream." Miroku added, as he gently shook Sango awake from her nap. "The arena will be packed with people screaming. Also try not to look scared If you get alarmed, it'll freak Inuyasha out." He dodged Inuyasha's hand as he reached into the back seat to hit Miroku.
"Miroku!" He yelled.
"Wait I can't scream?" Kagome retorted, laughing a little. Inuyasha shook his head. "Wait I'm confused."
"Cheer. You can cheer and have fun." Inuyasha clarified, getting out of the car, Kagome followed suit. "I don't want to hear anyone on my side screaming in fear. I hate it." Kagome rolled her eyes as she, Sango and Miroku followed him into the upscale restaurant.
Great, she thought, add that to the list of things he hates.
