Chapter 5 From a bedroom to a night club Part 2
Sango walked onto the dance floor and started shaking her hips to the music, much to Miroku's delight. "She's like a whole nother person when she's at a club." Kagome said as she moved to the stool next to Inuyasha.
"I can tell." He said. "Aren't you gonna join her?" He asked. Kagome smiled.
"It looks like Miroku beat me to it." She said. Inuyasha looked at the empty stool next to him and then towards the dance floor. Miroku had already joined Sango, dancing across from her just as well. Shockingly, he was keeping his hands away from her butt. "It must be killing him to control himself that much." Suddenly she heard the sound of Inuyasha's stomach over the music. "Wow, you must be hungry." She grabbed his hand, pulling him from the stool.
"Hey, what are you doing?" He asked as she pulled him across the room.
"We're going to get some food." She said as they entered a room filled with many white clothed tables filled with food. Everything from fish and chips to fried noodles could be seen, as well as salad, bread sticks and a variety of drinks. Inuyasha of course grabbed a plate and dashed towards the noodles. But as he grabbed the spoon, another hand joined his, clearly wanting the same thing. He jerked his head up and saw Kagome staring right back at him.
"Hey, I was here first." He said, trying to take the spoon from her. She however, was not about to let him have it.
"What about ladies first?" She asked, trying equally as hard to take it from him.
"If you remember that time at the CD store, then you know what I'm about to say." He said with a devious smile. Kagome nearly gasped at his words.
"I guess I was wrong, you are a jerk!" She yelled as she let go of the spoon, almost making it fly towards Inuyasha's shirt. She stormed off back towards the room they were just in. He just shrugged his shoulders. "Oh well, more for me." He said as he loaded up his plate
"Stupid Inuyasha." Kagome said to herself as she took another sip of her coke. "Trying to get close to that jerk is just wishful thinking!"
"Sounds like you're having a little guy trouble." Said a familiar voice. Kagome looked up and saw the bartender smiling down at her.
"No, I've got big ramen obsessed jerk problems." She said as her grip on the bottle of black liquid tightened.
"You're talking about the guy with the silver hair?" She asked. Kagome nodded. "Heh, don't get yourself so worked up." She said as she cleaned a glass. "He's crazy about you." Kagome almost choked on the soda.
"Yeah right!" She yelled.
"Believe what you want." The woman said. "I've been the bartender here for years. I've learned how to tell who has feelings for whom." She smirked. "And I haven't been wrong yet." Kagome stopped drinking as she felt a blush appear on her cheeks.
Inuyasha was still in the other room chowin' down when Miroku stepped in. He was breathing heavy, apparently tired from dancing with Sango. "She's still going!" He said. "She hasn't taken a break yet! Hey, where's Kagome? I thought she was with you?"
"She got pissed off and went to sit by herself at the bar." He said as he continued eating. Miroku stood there staring at his friend, astounded at his stupidity. "Inu…are you really that dense?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Inuyasha asked as he threw away his plate. Miroku grabbed him by the collar and pulled him to the doorway between the two rooms.
"That's what I mean!" he said, pointing towards a saddened Kagome. "She's depressed because of whatever you did." He stepped back. "Now get over there and cheer her up!" he said as he pushed Inuyasha out of the doorway. "Now, back to my main objective." He said as he headed towards Sango. She had finally stopped dancing and was sitting at a table having another drink. "I see you're having fun." Miroku said as he sat down in the seat next to her. Sango didn't even look at him. "Aw come on, are you really still holding a grudge against me for what happened in the mall?" He asked. She sat down her cup.
"You came out of nowhere and started to feel my butt!" She said. Miroku flinched at her sudden fury.
"Can you really blame me?" He asked. "How could I resist, you're the most beautiful women I've ever seen." Sango felt herself blush at his words.
"T-that's no excuse." She said, starting to play with her fingers. "You owe me an apology." Miroku smirked.
"Okay." He leaned forward. "I'm sorry that I couldn't resist you." He whispered into her ear. Sango shivered as his breath tickled her ear. Normally she would have shoved any guy that tried that away, but she didn't make the slightest move when Miroku did. Why was that? She didn't know. Or maybe she did, but didn't want to admit it. When Miroku sat back down in his seat Sango tried to take a sip of her drink to calm herself down. But when she raised the cup to her lips, she noticed that it was empty. "It looks like you need another drink." Miroku said. He grabbed her hand and pulled her up out of her seat. "Shall we?"
"…Okay." Sango said. Miroku smiled and led her back to the bar. She couldn't help but smile as well. 'Maybe this Miroku guy…isn't that bad after all.' She thought.
Inuyasha walked over to Kagome and claimed to stool next to her. "Hey Kagome." He said.
"What do you want?" she asked, clearly not in the mood to talk with him. Inuyasha sensed the sadness in her voice.
'Wow, she really is upset.' He thought. "Feh, I saw you sitting over here all by yourself, I thought I'd give you some company." Kagome's head shot up. She looked at him and, surprisingly, smiled.
"Thanks, I was kinda giving up on this little party." She said. 'Hm, maybe my plan isn't completely ruined.' She thought. Suddenly, as if on cue, a slow song started playing. Kagome bowed her head in a silent prayer, thanking whoever it was that was helping her out her up there. "Um…Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, a little nervous.
"Yeah?" Inuyasha asked as he took a sip of the drink he just ordered.
"Do you…um…dance?" she asked. He almost dropped his cup at her words.
"…Sometimes." He replied hesitantly.
"Well…do you want to?" She asked. Her voice was almost a whisper. Inuyasha surprised himself when he nodded and took her hand, leading her to the dance floor. Kagome's heart skipped a beat when Inuyasha pulled her into his strong arms, encircling her small shoulders. She felt all kinds of emotions swimming in her head. She finally gave in and relaxed when she felt him rest his chin on the top of her head. 'Well, I didn't exactly plan on it going this way.' She thought. 'But I'm not complaining…'
It was like an out of body experience. That was the only way for Inuyasha to describe his actions. He was amazed at how well she fit into his arms, like a right sized glove. He could feel that same warmth from before. He was trying hard not to bend down and kiss her. It was then that he realized it. He wanted her. But in what way? And what did she feel for him? He put those thoughts out of his head and enjoyed the moment. The two of them danced not only one, but three songs together. When the beat sped up the two of them broke apart, slowly. They both avoided the other's eyes as the blush appeared on their cheeks. "Well well, I saw this coming." Said Miroku. He grinned ear to ear when two annoyed faces turned toward him. Kagome then noticed the intoxicated Sango leaning on his shoulder. She sighed.
"And here I thought she'd finally make it through a party without getting drunk." Kagome said. "I guess it's time to go." The group walked to the front door of the club.
"I'll go get the truck." Inuyasha said as he walked off.
"Aaaaw, we're leeving?" Sango whined. "But I wuz havin fuuun."
"Well that's too bad." Kagome said. "You're drunk, which means it's time to go."
"I um not drank!" Sango yelled, just proving Kagome's point.
"Of course you aren't." Kagome said. "Miroku, do you think you could look after Sango for tonight? She usually stays at my house when she gets like this, but because of what happened that's not an option anymore. And I doubt Inuyasha would like having to take in another person. So can you do it Miroku?" He had to strain to keep himself from jumping for joy right there.
"Of course!" He said.
"Yay!" Sango squealed. "I'm shtayin at Miroku's!" She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
'Kagome just made this even easier.' He thought. Inuyasha drove up in front of them in his truck.
"Okay, get in." He said. Kagome sat in the passenger's seat while Miroku and Sango sat in the back. Kagome sat there next to Inuyasha, the memory of their dance playing over and over in her mind. Inuyasha could smell the nervousness on her. He too was still remembering their little moment together. The two didn't say a word to each other the entire car ride home. The sounds of the new couple making out in the back seat were the only thing that could be heard until they reached Miroku's house.
"Okay, I guess we'll see you guys tomorrow." Miroku said as he and Sango stepped out of the truck.
"Okay, thanks Miroku." Kagome said.
"No problem." He said as he headed for the front door.
"Miroku!" Inuyasha yelled after him. He looked back at him. "Control yourself." Miroku just smirked and continued inside.
"Byyye!" Sango said as she shut the door.
"I hope Miroku doesn't take advantage of the situation." Inuyasha said.
"What do you mean?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha started to head for his house.
"He's got a pretty girl in his house with him, she's drunk, and she most likely won't remember anything that happens tonight. What do you think is gonna pop into that pervert's head?" He asked. Kagome started to get nervous once she realized what might happen.
Miroku locked the door behind him. "Go ahead and make yourself at home." He said as he went into his room to get changed. Sango sat down on one of the two couches in the living room and closed her eyes. Her head was feeling fuzzy and she decided to go to sleep. Miroku walked into the living room a few minutes later. His eyes widened when he saw Sango asleep on the couch. He smiled deviously at his perfect opportunity. But his smile slowly faded as he looked at the innocent girl before him. He sighed. 'I can't do it.' He thought. 'I can't take advantage of her like this. I would have her body…but not her heart.' He picked her up and carried her to his bedroom. He laid her on the bed and pulled the covers over her. He crawled into bed next to her. "Someday, I'll get her to truly fall in love with me." He said to himself. "And when that day finally comes, I want our first time to be special." And with those words, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Kagome and Inuyasha however, had just gotten home a while minutes ago. They had gotten inside and both immediately went to bed. Kagome had almost instantly fallen asleep, but Inuyasha was still wide awake, staring up at his ceiling. A satisfied smile had taken residence on his face. 'I guess…this means I'm in love with Kagome.' He thought. 'But I'd never admit that of course.' His smile turned into a smirk. 'I knew that I didn't need Kikyo. She's nothing to me now.' And with that thought, he allowed himself to fall asleep. Little did he know, the most horrible nightmare he would ever have was soon to visit him.
End of chapter 5 part 2
Again, sorry that it took me so long to submit this. Don't get mad, but I really don't have an excuse this time. I guess I just got lazy. But I promise that I'll update more frequently until I finish the story, even though I'm thinking of starting a new one soon. Oh, almost forgot about the preview. I'll say this: Inuyasha isn't as over Kikyo as he thinks he is. Well, until next time, C ya!
