Play the game or let the game play you

Chapter Eight

Thank you to all who have been reading this. I thought it would come put pretty bad. But most thanks to my REVIEWERS. I'll continue to update every week for you fans. Maybe twice a week as a prize!

Kagome POV

"Gosh Kagome, you got one big booty!" Anzu laughed out as she walked towards the trio.

"Not as big as yours Miss Apricot. Where have you been?" Kagome asked, wondering why Anzu didn't show up until now.

"I went to pick up Rin. Oh yeah, you didn't meet her yet have you? Rin get your fine body over here!" Kagome saw a girl dressed in orange with her black hair tied to the side in a ponytail, look in their direction. She was very cute looking. Well I got to say that Sesshomaru has good taste. Rin ran up to them, but went directly to Sesshomaru's side.

She makes it clear she's with Sesshomaru. Kagome felt a small pang of jealousy shoot through her when she saw Rin grab onto Sesshomaru's arm, as if she owned him. Anzu was about to introduce the two girls but Koga came behind Kagome putting an arm around her shoulders. The gesture made Anzu, Seto, Sesshomaru, and Kagome stare at him with a 'what-the-fuck-are-you-doing look.

"Hey wassup Kagome? I didn't know you came." Koga said while smiling at her in a knowing look. Uhh… what is he doing? All she did was raise an eyebrow, and look at his arm hanging on her.

"Hey Koga…"

"Oh, Koga, is that your new girlfriend? I thought you were going out with Ayame? What happened?" Rin asked while staring at the couple in front of her.

This girl is making it hard for me not to hate her right now. Jumping to conclusions like that, as if I'd go out with Koga…"

Koga was about to speak, but Kagome cut him off. "No no no no no no, you got it so wrong. I'm not his girl or anything. Just a homie…" Kagome took his arm off her shoulder and dropped it to his side giving him a nice try smile.

"Oh, well, who are you then?" Rin asked. Damn this girl is rude. Didn't I just say I'm a friend? Anzu answered for Kagome because she noticed Kagome glare at Rin for a moment.

"Rin this is Kagome, Kagome meet Rin." Kagome gave a small smile to Rin, but it disappeared from her lips when Rin just looked her up and down, and then gave a dirty look. What the fuck. Alright. Fuck this shit. I'm not gonna be kickin' it with a bitch who thinks she's all that.

Sesshomaru POV

Kagome looked good in his jacket. The fact that the jacket belongs to him makes it look like she does too. Sesshomaru frowned to himself when he saw Koga covering her like that. He didn't like the fact that Koga could do what he wanted to do. It irritated him that the two looked like they would make a cute couple.

Sesshomaru sighed to himself when he felt Rin grab his arm. This doesn't seem like it would make a good picture for Kagome. Fuck it. Who cares if it doesn't. Sesshomaru watched the two girls judging each other.

From the frown on Kagome's face and how Rin looked at her. He could tell they didn't try or want to get along. I wonder if Rin is just hating because Kagome is wearing my jacket. And I wonder if Kagome is getting pissed because Rin's arm is locked in my arm. He stared at the two and totally thought against it, not knowing how right he was.

"Alright, well I'm gonna go shoot some hoops. Catch y'all later." Sesshomaru watched as Kagome took of his jacket and put it on a bench. She went down to the basketball court where Kurama, Hiei, Sango, Miroku, and Ayame were chilling. He noticed Koga didn't follow her. Why is he sticking around for?

Rin stared at the remainder of the group. "Um, okay, that girl was a total bitch. Why is she hanging around you guys for?"

"Rin, you don't even know her, so don't judge yet alright?" Anzu said quietly.

"I know who she is. Her cousin is a bitch and I'm sure she is too. Besides, didn't she dump Inu Yasha in a week or something. And look at her, she's dressed like a slut, so I say she's a bitch."

"Well she isn't so stop fucking around with that word." Koga growled out

"What the fuck, why aren't you worrying about Ayame? My bad I didn't think you only liked the slutty types." Rin bit out to Koga.

"That's the point. I don't like you do I?" Koga said insultingly and walked out.

"Fuck you!"

Koga heard her and turned around and yelled out. "No I don't fuck bitchy sluts like you."

Sesshomaru ignored what Rin was arguing about. Ever since her parents died. Which was hella long ago. She's never been the same. And that's just an understatement.

Sesshomaru stared at the group at the court. They were all laughing at Kagome trying to shoot in a skirt. It was very surprising to see Hiei smirk and Kurama smiling so big. Kagome is one weird girl. She got him thinking about her, she got Koga to defend for her, she got Seto to flirt with her, and she can make Hiei and Kurama loosen their guard. Maybe she's just… special.

Kagome POV

Kagome walked away from the group behind her. Anzu and Seto were cool to chill with, but she didn't want to see a bitch hanging on a bastard's arm. She still couldn't believe Sesshomaru had a girlfriend and he openly kissed her and he never stopped or explained anything… but it's even more fucked up that his girlfriend is a hater.

I didn't know both brothers were so alike. Inu Yasha and Kikyo and now Sesshomaru and Rin. It probably runs in the family. Perfect fucked up couples.

As she walked down the path, she saw Sango slap Miroku in the face. The most natural scene that I'll always see everyday. Those two would go good together. Miroku needs a strong woman to keep him in check. The two were sitting on one side of the bench while Ayame sat on the other. They were all watching Kurama and Hiei play one on one.

She stared at the ball as it dribbled and bounced. Inu Yasha thought she didn't know how to play. Maybe I should bust some moves for word to spread out that I can. Kagome smiled to herself.

When Kurama dribbled the ball and held off Hiei from trying to steal it. She ran in front of Kurama and stole the ball instead. The two players were both surprised but still played on. She dodged the guys and made it to the half court line. Both players were running towards her from different directions so she just shot. She jumped up and aimed for the square. As she threw the ball she lifted up her right foot in a girly style. To everyone's shock, including herself. She made it.

"Did I really make that shot?" Kagome asked herself staring at the hoop.

"Not bad." Hiei remarked with a smirk. Kagome looked at him and got the feeling she won his approval. Huh?

"I like your shooting pose Kagome. It's very… artistic." Kurama said while smiling at her. Oh wow, Sango was right, they are really, really CUTE… But what… shooting pose?

Kagome looked at him with questioning eyes. He laughed and demonstrated it to her. He jumped while bending up his right leg. "Girlie, but cute, can you guarantee I'll always make a shot from the half line if I do that?" He joked out.

Kagome blushed. "Nope, but I suggest you don't try it in a real game." Kurama gave her a handsome smile and Hiei gave her a charming smirk. Hiei must be one of those… tough gangsta guys or something. Getting a smile from him must be rare. Wow…

"Oh Kagome beat you two. Dang, lost to a girl, how do you men feel about that huh?" Ayame giggled out.

"We want a rematch because this girl cheated by using her good looks on us." Hiei answered smoothly purposely making Kagome blush even darker.

"Yeah I was distracted too, they should make a rule that women have to wear jeans when they play against guys. Because if they jump in skirts, the guys won't be paying attention to the ball at all." Miroku joked out, earning a ball in the head from Kagome.

"I don't think that would be a good rule at all. 'Cuz then what's the point of playing ball with a girl when we know they could beat us if they wanted to." Koga said while he moved to sit next to Ayame.

"Oh wow. Ayame, Kagome, I didn't know we were surrounded by perverts." Sango laughed out.

"Ladies, if there's one thing that any girl should know. All guys have a little pervert in them. That's why they get horny so fast." Kagome explained while acting like a scientist.

"True. True. We have to admit to that." Kurama unexpectedly agreed. Making everyone in their group laugh out loud.

"But you know what? Same thing goes for girls." He said giving all the guys a knowing look.

"Damn right." The girls totally agreed.
