She was a bubbly, ebullient woman. Her eyes shined with pure joy as she conversed happily with everyone in Inuyasha's entourage, never straying far from his brother, Sesshomaru. At the moment, Kagome found herself sitting at a table in the private jet, as Inuyasha found somewhere to put their belongings. She watched with curiosity as the other woman laughed, and grabbed into Sesshomaru's arm. He simply glanced at her, and held her hand as she conversed. He sipped on a glass of champagne. She looked over at her left hand and noticed a large diamond ring. Kagome's eyes widened in surprise. I don't remember him wearing a ring when we met. Kagome thought. She saw Miroku make eye contact with Kagome, and tapped the other woman on the shoulder. He guided her toward Kagome, and smiled at her. "Rin! Meet Kagome, Inuyasha's wonderful girlfriend. Kagome, meet Rin. She's Sesshomaru's fiancée." Rin smiled at Kagome widely and reached for a hug as Kagome stood up from her seat to greet her. Kagome was taken aback by the hug, but returned it nonetheless. Seeing the two greet each other, Miroku made his way back to the entourage, working his way past a flight attendant. Inuyasha made his way over from the couch where everyone's bags were thrown on, and joined his brother and Miroku in conversation, along with a short, older man. He was holding a glass with whiskey in it. Kagome could overhear the four men speaking in Japanese, although she couldn't quite make it out.
"Oh, thank god, another woman!" Rin exclaimed, pretending to wipe sweat off of her brow. "I always try to support our little brother, but being surrounded by nothing but savage men for a few days can get to be quite exhausting." She smiled. Kagome laughed and smiled back, taking a champagne flute from the flight attendant that passed by. "I'm so glad Inuyasha is finally calming down," Rin said, looking back toward Inuyasha with a soft expression. Kagome followed her gaze.
"Slowing down?" Kagome asked, taking a sip of the champagne. She and Rin sat down, and Rin sighed. "Is there something I should know about?" Kagome asked, looking concerningly at Rin. Rin laughed nervously and waved off Kagome's concern.
"Nothing to worry about!" Rin lied glancing over at her fiancé. Kagome raised an eyebrow. "It's just that Inuyasha is a very...well...I've never been introduced to a girl he's brought on a jet. He doesn't let us talk to his girlfriends usually. Actually, he doesn't even post them on his social media most of time." She said cautiously, and Kagome sighed. Yeah, I kind of knew that already, Kagome thought; nonetheless she smiled down at the petite woman. She had short, straight hair, that was cut in a blunt lob, had loose curls. Kagome simply shook Rin's comments off.
"You mentioned savage men?" She laughed a little bit. "I think your fiancé is the furthest thing from a savage man." Kagome joked, taking another sip of her champagne. She locked eyes with Inuyasha who raised his eyebrows at her. She smiled in his direction which caused him to go back to his conversation. Before Rin could say something, the pilot came out from the cockpit.
"Gentlemen, please take a seat. This jet will start moving very shortly. We should be in Las Vegas about 4 hours from now." Kagome watched as Inuyasha, Sesshomaru and Miroku plopped down on a couch and buckled their seatbelts. She and Rin did the same. The old man and two other demons sat in single seats, also putting on their seatbelts. Once done, Rin turned back to her conversation with Kagome and winked.
"Appearances can be deceiving." She said back to her, and smiled devilishly. Kagome laughed and lightly hit her shoulder with the sleeve of her hoodie. In her peripheral vision she saw Inuyasha's ears perk up, one ear turned in her direction. His eyes were still glued to his phone however.
"Ooh, I like you." Kagome said, and yelped as she felt the plane move.
"What? Never been on a plane before?" the old man said from his seat across the aisle from the two women. Kagome laughed nervously. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this is his trainer, Kagome thought.
"I have, just...never been in a private plane before." Kagome said shyly. Rin smiled at her and patted her on the shoulder. The old man chuckled, and nodded his head.
"It's alright Kagome. It's the same as being on a regular plane...just better." He said with a wink, earning a smile from Rin and Kagome. He eyed Kagome up and down, as if sizing her up. The old man then looked over his shoulder at Inuyasha who was bickering with his brother on the couch and made a 'hm' sound, going back to reading his magazine.
"That's Myoga." Rin stated, and Kagome nodded. "He's Inuyasha's trainer. Old, wise man. Like Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid!" Rin laughed. Kagome smiled at her. Mr. Poker face with this chick? I'd like to know the story behind that! Kagome thought. Myoga rolled his eyes at Rin's comment, although he did appreciate her lighthearted nature. Kagome jolted back in her seat as she felt the plane pick up speed, and then ascend into the air. She looked out of the window as the city of New York started to become smaller and smaller, until it turned into nothing but a couple thousand small white dots. "Where are you from?" Rin asked Kagome.
"Well," Kagome said, sipping her champagne. "My parents were born in Japan, but I was actually born in Seattle, Washington." Kagome said, and glanced in Inuyasha's direction. He was too busy talking with Miroku. He made a punching motion into the ai, and twisted his body. Kagome was confused, but she figured it was best she not ask. "What about you?" Kagome returned the question to Rin, leaning against the window of the jet. She kicked off her slip-on vans and pulled one leg onto the chair with her body, locking her fingers under her knee.
"I'm from the city." Rin said, shrugging. "I grew up in Astoria. "Kagome nodded at her and the two started having a conversation about their favorite spots in the city.
Sesshomaru stared from his spot on the couch as Rin and Kagome spoke to each other, every once in a while, one of them would laugh or playfully shove the other. "Our women are getting along well, brother." Sesshomaru said lowly, bumping Inuyasha in the shoulder. "She was a nice choice." Sesshomaru added, nodding at Miroku. He wasn't a man of many words, or much praise- but he was never hesitant to give credit when it was due. Miroku's lips instantly broke out in a smug smile. Sesshomaru instantly narrowed his eyes at the man. Smug lecher, Sesshomaru thought.
"She's not my woman." Inuyasha uttered, as he peered at the women through narrowed eyes. His eyes rested on Kagome, who was wearing an oversized cream-colored sweater, and jeans. Her hair was thrown up into a messy bun, and he could see the small tattoo behind her ear. She wore stud diamond earrings. Inuyasha huffed as he looked away from them and turned toward his brother, "you're just saying that because she's being nice to Rin and keeping her company." he added, rolling his eyes as he took off his seatbelt. Miroku snickered at his comment.
"Rin talks a lot Sesshomaru." Miroku said to his friend, and Sesshomaru growled lowly a them.
"Rin talks a comfortable amount." He defended, and then looked at Miroku up and down. "You're just mad you can't get women in bed without getting drunk at a party with them." Sesshomaru added, a small smirk tugging on his lips. Miroku turned red, and Inuyasha laughed.
The private jet buzzed with conversation, laughter and drinks the whole way to Las Vegas. Kagome hadn't even noticed that they were flying into Las Vegas until the pilot said so. Excited, as she had never been to Las Vegas. Kagome turned in her spot and looked out the window, pressing her face against the glass as she looked down at the small, yet mighty city, that sprouts seemingly out of thin air in the middle of arid Nevada. "Wow..." Kagome breathed, her eyes twinkled with childlike joy and excitement. She realized that she may not get to do much of what other people may do on a trip to Las Vegas, but not everyone who went into Las Vegas got there in a private jet with champagne and attractive men, she would give you that much. Sure, Inuyasha certainly was rough around the edges and hot headed, along with entitled and selfish, accompanied by simple minded and arrogant, on top of spoiled and bratty; but he was cute. Sort of. He was attractive in his own...odd way, Kagome just had to put her finger on it. She looked over at Rin excitedly and then strained her neck to look over at Miroku, who looked back at her with a wide smile. She noticed the uninterested looks Inuyasha and Sesshomaru as they peered over their shoulders into the window behind them. "What's the matter with you people? Isn't it beautiful?" Kagome asked, pointing out of her window. Rin giggled, causing Kagome to look over at her.
"Kagome, Las Vegas really isn't that amazing once you come here every other month sweetheart." Rin said. Kagome looked over at the two brothers, who looked uninterestedly out of the window, and shrugged her shoulders. Rin looked over to Myoga who was fast asleep, while Inuyasha's two friends swatted at his nose, trying to get him to wake up. She sighed heavily, and then got up from her seat, walking over to Sesshomaru. "Sesshomaru." Rin said calmly, earning the attention of all three of the men on the couch. Sesshomaru reached out to Rin, and held her hand, looking up at her. "When we land, can we go eat? I'm hungry."
"Of course, Rin." Sesshomaru said, and turned to Inuyasha. "Would you and Kagome care to join us?" He asked, arching an eyebrow at his brother. Inuyasha glared at Sesshomaru, knowing very well that his brother was only trying to get under his skin. Rin didn't quite pick up on the annoyance Inuyasha showed, as she jumped up and down, clapping her hands.
"Oh, please do!" Rin said, clasping her hands together as she gave Inuyasha puppy eyes. Inuyasha glared up at Rin, and then looked over at Kagome. The soft glow of the lights of the buildings below them illuminated her face, adding to the childlike expression in her eyes. He felt a small smirk break out. "That is, if she's hungry." Rin said, following Inuyasha's gaze. "She's really excited to be here." Rin added, smiling at Kagome. She shared a knowing look with Sesshomaru, and then poked Miroku in the side of his head, motioning for him to look at Inuyasha.
"What? Oh...Oh." Miroku said, as he watched Inuyasha willingly walk over to Kagome, and place his chin on her shoulder, watching the lights of the city with her as they flew closer. He frantically checked the area for his phone, and took a picture of the two, moments before Kagome realized that Inuyasha was so close to her and pushed him off of her, causing him to fall in Myoga's lap. "Well this has escalated quickly." Miroku muttered to himself, as he watched the two bickered, Myoga wriggled under Inuyasha, as his two friends pushed Inuyasha off. Sighing, he turned his attention back to his phone, and sent the picture he took to Inuyasha's phone. He watched it ding from beside him.
"You're a creep! Why would you do that?" Kagome screamed at Inuyasha, throwing the rest of her champagne in his face, Sesshomaru winced, as did Rin and Miroku. Seeing that the situation was going to get heated, Inuyasha's two friends scurried down the aisle to the area where Miroku, Rin and Sesshomaru were. "Jesus christ!" Kagome yelled, as she hit Inuyasha on the arm with her fist.
"Alright!" Inuyasha said, pulling his arm away from Kagome. He grabbed her wrists in his hands and stared down at her, sitting her down on a seat, he kneeled in front of her. "Look! Jesus- Kagome would you stop fighting me?!" Inuyasha growled loudly at her, struggling to keep her hands down. Myoga sighed from his seat.
"Inuyasha leave her." Myoga said. "You freaked her out."
"It was a fucking joke!" Inuyasha yelled, tightening his grip around Kagome's wrists as he turned his head to look at Myoga. He heard Kagome wince in pain and let go of her, although he quickly wrapped his hands around her wrists again when she tried to swing at him. "You really tried to hit me just now, didn't you?" Inuyasha glowered at her. He chuckled and let go of her hands, tapping his cheek lightly with his own. "Go ahead, bitch...hit me." He dared her, again tapping his cheek.
Fucking gladly! Kagome thought, as she threw back her arm, and struck Inuyasha on the cheek with force, and an open palm. Everyone in the private jet held their breath, waiting to see Inuyasha's reaction. The flight attendant peered into the area from her seat near the front, having heard the arguments and the sound of a hit. The light for everyone to go back to their seats turned on. Slowly, Inuyasha rose from his spot in front of Kagome, gingerly touching his cheek that now glowed red and pulsated. Kagome glared at his back as he walked away from her slowly, and went to sit back down. She saw Rin approach him to see if he was okay, but he simply held out a hand signifying that he didn't want to be bothered.
"Why?" Miroku mouthed at Kagome, shaking his head. Kagome glared at him, prompting him to glare back at her. "Apologize!" He mouthed to her, making a motion toward Inuyasha.
"No!" Kagome yelled toward him, and folded her arms in defiance. Myoga, who sat across from her shook his head, and Kagome's hard, unapologetic expression faltered for a minute. She felt the plane descend slowly, and soon after she felt the wheels screech against the asphalt. Kagome felt as if time couldn't have gone more slowly than it did in that moment, her eyes remained glued out her window. Part of it was because of embarrassment, the other because she felt guilty, and yet refused to apologize to Inuyasha. She bounced her head nervously, as the jet slowly pulled into an aircraft hangar. She saw two large SUVs waiting for the group, and she could not wait to get out of the plane and into her hotel room. Once they were told it was okay to get up, Kagome quickly reached back to where her shoes were, and slipped them back on. She reached for her phone, along with her tote bag and quickly walked to where her duffle bag was, and picked it up, along with the garment bag her dress was in. As she turned back to get out of the plane, Inuyasha blocked her way, his palms resting on the seats that were to either side of him. "Let me through." Kagome said lowly to him, focusing on something beyond his shoulder.
"No." Inuyasha said simply, as Kagome fixated her gaze on his face. "You're going to apologize, we're going to check into the hotel, and go to bed." Inuyasha said lowly, leaning into her ear. Kagome looked over his shoulder again, seeing Rin looking at her concerned. "I'm willing to overlook this. Once." Inuyasha commented as he pulled away; his jaw tightened and his hands balled up in fists, still resting on the top of the leather chairs.
"Let me through. Everyone else has to get their things." Kagome uttered back to him, clearing her through. She looked down and closed her eyes. "Please." She said weakly, looking up at Inuyasha. His eyes softened once she looked up at him, she could see the hurt in them, and it almost caused her to show him that she felt genuinely bad. Inuyasha sighed and moved over to let Kagome cross. Drawing herself up, Kagome walked pass the flight attendant that stood at the exit of the plane and uttered a 'thank you' on her way. Once she was on the ground, Miroku placed a hand on Kagome's back as he walked her over to one of the cars. She loaded her things into it, and then sat in the back seat with the door open. She looked over at Miroku and clenched her teeth. "Did I fuck up?" She asked, concerned.
Miroku looked at Kagome, bewildered for a moment, and then sighed. "Slightly." He said, pursing his lips. "Look." Miroku said, struggling to find the right words to say to her. He looked over his shoulder as Inuyasha and his friends left the plane. "He didn't mean to be...like that." Miroku said, and realized those too, were not the right words to say. "He's innocent alright? He just wanted to spook you for a good laugh." Miroku said, and Kagome sighed, slumping her shoulders. "No one is judging you, okay? Except maybe Inuyasha, but let's be honest...he judges everyone." Miroku whispered, causing Kagome to smile a little. "Maybe you guys can make up in your hotel room?" Miroku added, shyly. Kagome quickly struck him on the head, and Miroku glared at her. "I hope you don't pick this up as a habit young lady." Miroku said dryly, rubbing his head. He watched as Inuyasha walked pass them and loaded his things and Miroku's into the trunk of the SUV.
"Our hotel room? As in I'm staying with him?" Her cheeks turned red with embarrassment. Miroku nodded his head. "Please tell me it's separate beds." She clasped her hands together, and peered over her seat to the back of the car and noticed Inuyasha was gone. "Miroku please tell me you're joking."
"Look you guys have to seem like a couple. Las Vegas is crawling with people ready to make a mountain out of a molehill. You guys need to show a united front, if you're seen walking out of one hotel room and he's seen walking out of another, people can say you're cheating on each other or he's cheating on you, and start questioning the relationship." He explained lowly, rubbing a hand over Kagome's arm. "It's one hotel room, but separate rooms. It's one of the suites. You don't have to interact with him if you don't want to. He's not going to bother you. I promise you that. You won't even share a bathroom." Kagome sighed, and glared at Miroku. "Kagome...a lot of money is being poured into this. We need this to work. You can't keep fighting us along the way." The girl nodded her head at Miroku, and he pulled her in for a hug.
"Can we go?" Inuyasha said from behind Miroku, his hands in his pockets. Miroku nodded and climbed into the car, and Inuyasha followed after him, closing the door behind him. He cleared his throat as he sat next to Kagome, and stared out of the window of the car as it moved out of the hangar. Kagome strained her neck to look out of the back window, as Sesshomaru loaded duffle bags into the back of the other car. The car ride was silent, there wasn't much to say after what happened on the jet.
"Inuyasha." Kagome said softly, and looked at him. The pretty lights of the Las Vegas strip didn't matter much to her anymore. Nothing can be as insufferable as the tension in this car right now, Kagome thought as Inuyasha turned his head to look at her. She tried to look for any sign of interest from him in his eyes, but she could only see indifference. "Just wanted to say I'm sorry." Kagome sighed, and turned to look out of her own window.
"Save it." Inuyasha said, folding his arms.
"Inuyasha." Miroku said darkly, glaring at his friend. Come on! Don't be stupid!
"Okay." Kagome said defeatedly, making Inuyasha's ears flicker. She couldn't exactly force him to accept her apology, just as he couldn't exactly force Kagome to like his personality, even though it was essentially what she was hired to do. "I understand." she added, as they pulled in front of the hotel lobby. Kagome recognized the hotel from celebrity Instagram posts and youtubers she watched, although her mind was too focused on the angry half-demon fighter she slapped. A hotel porter greeted them as got out of the SUV and quickly unloaded their bags from the SUV and followed the three into the hotel lobby. For the rest of the check in process, Kagome was adrift, not paying attention. She couldn't help but notice the tension that surrounded Inuyasha, or the awkwardness with which Miroku spoke to them as they parted ways to go to their hotel rooms for the night. She drifted in and out of the small talk the porter made with Inuyasha in the elevator, and barely noticed the picture the porter took with him, or the "good luck on the fight!" he added, as he left Inuyasha and Kagome in the spacious, beautiful suite. What broke her out of her train of thought was the sigh that left Inuyasha's lips as he took his things from the luggage cart and went into his room, closing the doors behind him. Kagome took her garment bag, and her duffle bag, and went into her own room on the other end of the living room, closing the doors behind her. "I should call Sango." Kagome said to herself in her large room. "First I should shower, though." Kagome thought, yawning as she pulled a pair of satin sleeping shorts, and a matching loose-fitting tank top. She opened a door to the right side of the bed, that led into her own bathroom. Kagome turned on the water and adjusted its temperature before she went in, letting the lukewarm water wash over her body for a second. Her mind flashed back to the hard impact her hand made with Inuyasha's cheek.
SLAP.
She winced as she washed off her body, and stepped out of the shower, drying off her hair and then wrapping her small body in the towel. He's going to accept my apology, Kagome resolved, determination in her eyes as she changed into her satin sleeping shorts and tank top. She combed out her hair with her fingers, before tucking it behind her ears. She grabbed her phone from her bed, and huffed as she opened the doors to her room, and walked across the living and dining room of the hotel suite and over to Inuyasha's room. She took a deep breathe, before she knocked softly on the wooden doors. "Inuyasha?" Kagome said softly, placing her hands on the door, she looked up, pressing her ear to it. She couldn't hear anything. "Inuyasha can you please open your door?" Kagome pleaded, "can we talk? I want to apologize." Again, she received no answer. Confused, Kagome cracked open the door, and peered in through the crack. She could see a small part of his head. "So, he is in here." Kagome whispered to herself as she opened the door more, and walked in. Inuyasha lay under the covers of the bed on his stomach, his arms wrapped under the pillow. Kagome could see all of the muscles in his back move under his pale skin as he shifted in his sleep. He looks so peaceful, Kagome thought, as she stood near the foot of the canopy bed, an arm wrapped around the bed post. The light breeze coming in from the open balcony doors rustled his hair, that was tossed to one side of his head.
"Kagome..." She heard him call out her voice in his sleep and she covered her mouth, her cheeks turning red. Shit! "Why are you in my room?" His eyes fluttered open as he flipped over on the bed, and sat up against the pillows. He stared at the girl who was extremely flustered and unable to concentrate at the moment.
Oh.
"Well- I... you see.." Kagome stuttered, as Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. It's kind of hard to concentrate with a body like THAT sitting across from you! Kagome thought to herself, as she bit her thumb. "I came to apologize, and I saw that you were asleep." Kagome admitted, and then pointed behind her, "I was just about to leave so I'm just gonna..." she trailed off, as she turned on her heel and started to walk out of the room. Inuyasha snorted.
"Kagome." She turned at the sound of her voice, her cheeks still flushed a rose color. "Wait." Her stomach did a small summersault at the sound of his groggy, raspy voice. His voice was usually raspy and low, but this was next level. Kagome watched as he pulled himself out of bed, and walked out onto his balcony. Kagome followed after him. And stood beside him, as he leaned on the railing, staring out at the view
"Yeah?" Kagome asked shyly, placing her hands on the cold metal railing. She looked out at the view. There was a beat of silence. "Look, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have hit you. That was completely uncalled for. I promise I'll never do it again-"
Inuyasha shook his head, and sighed, turning to look at her. "I don't care about that." He said, staring at Kagome straight in her eyes. He looked almost to be searching for something in her eyes, although she couldn't quite figure out what it was. "I have a question for you." He asked, running a hand through his hair. Kagome raised an eyebrow at him. "Relax," he cooed, "I'm not going to bite your head off."
"Okay..." Kagome responded wearily, crossing her arms over her chest. "Can we do this quickly, because I'm really cold." Kagome said, shivering slightly in her spot. Inuyasha disappeared into his room, and came back with a blanket. "Thanks." she murmured, as she pulled it over her shoulders. Why is he being so nice all of a sudden? What's with him?
"Are you afraid of me?"He asked the question in a curious tone, tilting his head to one side. Kagome gave him a bewildered look. "I yelled at you, when we were signing that contract and you looked scared for a second. Today you attacked me. You cowered away in my apartment when I picked up Miroku." Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders, shoving his hands into his pajama pants pockets. Kagome gulped, and looked down. "And yet...you also have times when you seem completely unafraid of me at all." He squinted his eyes at Kagome, and took a step forward. "What's with you?" He asked softly, offering a small, fleeting smile.
"I.." Kagome started, seeing how close she now was to the dog demon. "I..."
"You?" Inuyasha asked, teasingly.
"I don't feel comfortable talking about that." Kagome said, and took off the blanket, shoving it into Inuyasha's chest. He blinked in confusion and watched as Kagome quickly walked out of his room. He followed her.
"Kagome it's a simple question!" He said, slumping his shoulders, staring across the suite at Kagome.
"It doesn't have a simple answer." Kagome firmly retorted, opening her door. Inuyasha groaned, and rolled his eyes. "Good night Inuyasha!" Kagome said over her shoulder, and entered her room, slamming the door shut behind her. Inuyasha exhaled heavily, and turned on his heel. He threw himself onto the bed, staring up at the ceiling. No simple answer, Inuyasha repeated in his mind, as he turned over on his side, and fell asleep.
Kagome came to at the sound of banging at the hotel room door. Her eyes fluttered open and she hissed as light streamed in from her open balcony. Sighing, she got up from bed and shuffled over to the door. "I'm coming!" Kagome yelled, as she shuffled groggily over to the door and opened it, revealing a frantic Miroku. "Oh...good morning." Kagome said, through a yawn. Miroku merely nodded at her and ran into Inuyasha's room. Kagome blinked, confused.
"Inuyasha wake the fuck up! You're going to be late!" She heard Miroku yell, as he pulled the covers off of Inuyasha's body. Inuyasha groaned, and pulled the pillow further under his head. "Wake up you lazy dog!" Miroku grumbled loudly, pushing Inuyasha off of the bed. Kagome giggled from Inuyasha's doorway as she watched him roll lazily off of his bed, and then huddle comfortably on the carpet. Miroku sighed and whizzed past Kagome and into the small kitchen area, pulling a small bucket of ice out of the freezer. He hurried back into the bedroom and threw the ice onto Inuyasha's face. He gasped for air as he got up, one hand on his chest.
"I'm up! I'm up!" Inuyasha yelled, and grumbled at Miroku when he realized he was the one who threw the ice on him. "Fuck you Miroku." He said plainly to his friend, and then turned his attention to Kagome. He looked at her up and down, and then nodded to her.
"Nice to see you two are on cordial terms, however we have to get to the weigh in downstairs in thirty minutes, so pull on a shirt, and brush your teeth and lets fucking go!" Miroku hissed at Inuyasha through gritted teeth. Inuyasha groaned as he searched through his duffle bag for a plain t-shirt. He found a plain black one and pulled it over his head as he shuffled over to his bathroom, and closed the door. Miroku turned toward Kagome who was staring at the bathroom. "Did you guys have sex or something?" Miroku asked Kagome, as he arched an eyebrow up at her. Kagome choked on air. "C'mon, you're staring at him like he's a piece of wagyu beef. Dame Kagome, Dame." Miroku tapped Kagome lightly on her head, causing Kagome to scrunch up her nose. "No good, Kagome."
"Absolutely not." Kagome snorted, as she walked over to her own room, "I'm going to order room service and put it on his credit card!" She called over her shoulder, "let dog boy know, will you?" Kagome added, winking at her friend. Miroku sighed, and shook his head.
Inuyasha emerged from his bathroom, and gave himself a once over in the mirror on the dresser. Miroku sighed from the doorway and tapped his watch. "I'm going, I'm going." Inuyasha groaned at his friend, brushing his long hair a little bit, before he threw it up into a messy bun.
"Kagome's getting room service on your card." Miroku said to Inuyasha as they walked out of the door. Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders at his friend. Miroku raised his hands up in defense. "Look, I'm just the messenger. She wanted to let you know."
"I don't care what she does." Inuyasha scoffed, pressing the button to call the elevator.
After having ordered herself a large breakfast from the-very expensive- room service menu, Kagome lazed on the couch, flipping through the TV channels in the living room flat screen. Miroku said the weigh in would be on TV, right? Kagome thought to herself, as she flipped through the TV, before landing on ESPN. She made herself on the couch, and grabbed one of the decorative cushions, holding it to her chest. She watched a few fighters weigh in, and pose for a picture facing each other, before Inuyasha's name being chanted caught her attention. She smiled softly to herself, as she watched him strip down to his underwear and stand on the scale, smiling as his weight was announced. He winked at the camera, and gave a confident smile, flexing his biceps. Kagome could faintly see Miroku behind him, off to one side of the camera, he had a serious look on his face. She could also see Myoga beside Miroku, sighing in relief when he heard that Inuyasha made weight. Inuyasha got off of the scale, and watched as his opponent stripped down as well. The opponent stood on the scale, and Kagome gasped. "No fucking way!" She squealed, covering her mouth with her hand. "It's Koga!" She shouted to herself, and watched as the Inuyasha and Koga took on a fighting stance for the picture. She saw Koga mutter something to Inuyasha, and Inuyasha whispered something back, causing Koga to lunge over the arm of the person between them. She saw Inuyasha quickly back away and make a confused look at the camera, as if to say 'what's his deal?'.
It was at this moment that Kagome realized that Saturday night would be more entertaining than she thought, and she found herself becoming jittery with excitement. She quickly jumped off of the couch, and ran into her room, reaching for her phone to call Sango back in New York City.
