Chapter Two- Behold... The Couples

"Hey Kagome!" Kagome looked up, and saw Sango.

"Oh, hey Sango!" Kagome replied. Kagome pushed the cart back to where it was.

"Hey Kagome, you're already done with Miroku's room?" Sango asked, looking rather sad.

"Yeah. Why?"

"Oh, I just wanted to surprise my little Miro-poo by going with you!" Sango said. Kagome blinked.

"Miro-poo? Sango, I have never heard you talk like that…are you sure you're okay?"

"Yeah. I just haven't met him in four months… and I miss him. So I guess I went a bit too far." Sango said, and then she tried to change the subject. "So I guess you met InuYasha?" Kagome looked up. Oh yeah, that jerk… almost forgot about him.

"Oh, yeah. How'd you know?" Sango smirked.

"That's the bright side of the cell phone. Miroku called me and filled me in. I was so happy to hear from him. But I heard InuYasha shouting from the distance." Sango said. Kagome just slightly blushed for no apparent reason.

"I have my lunch break now, Sango. I'll see you in a bit, okay?" Kagome asked. Sango didn't look pleased.

"Why don't you come with me and Ayame to go and eat lunch? We can eat at San Gennaro's Grill again, just in Venetian's food court like we always do."

"I can't. Koga's taking me out to a buffet today." Kagome replied, indifferently. Sango smiled at the thought.

"Oh yes, that's right! You're getting married, huh!" Sango exclaimed. "When's the wedding again?" Kagome smiled. I love it when my friends bring up my wedding… I feel so happy and excited…

"In two weeks… Koga of course, wants it here, but I don't really know what to say. I never pictured myself having a big fancy wedding…" Sango nodded.

"Well, you better go, or else you'll be late for your lunch date." Sango said. Kagome quickly changed out of her maid outfit as Sango did with hers. When they finished, Ayame came in.

"Hey guys."

"Hey Ayame." Sango and Kagome chirped together.

"So we still up for lunch?" Ayame asked hopefully as she changed herself.

"I can't. I have a lunch date." Kagome said apologetically.

"Oh, it's okay. Tomorrow then, alright?" Ayame asked. Kagome nodded and then bided her two friends bye.

……………………………………………………………………

"Miroku…"

"Hmm?"

"Aren't you supposed to go and meet up with Sango?" InuYasha asked. Miroku looked up.

"Yeah. I'm going to surprise her at the lunch. Where her friends always meet up." Miroku replied. "You want to come with me, InuYasha, or would you rather just sleep in again?"

"Keh. Whatever. I'm probably

going to go down and gamble a bit." InuYasha said as he headed for the bathroom. Miroku just sighed.

"I bet you wouldn't be like this if Kikyo were here." Miroku said in a sly tone. InuYasha's head popped out of the bathroom, and it did not have a happy face on it.

"Shut up! I don't even know why I bother to talk to you sometimes."

"What? All I said was your fiancé's name… followed by some other words." Miroku replied, acting innocent.

"Whatever. I don't even know why I'm marrying her sometimes." Miroku looked up. He could tell InuYasha was serious about this.

"What do you mean? I thought you loved her."

"I thought so too. But she's been…very…well… Kikyo."

"Isn't that what's supposed to make you like her?"

"I don't know. Maybe I'm just imagining things." InuYasha replied dully and then plopped onto his bed.

"Could it be that you like someone else?" InuYasha sat up.

"No way!" InuYasha replied quickly.

"That reply was a bit too quick, InuYasha." Miroku said. "Could it be that there's another girl?" He teased.

"There isn't!" InuYasha yelled. At least… I don't think there is…

"Suuuree. I'll believe you InuYasha." Miroku got up and opened the door.

"Where're you going?"

"To the food court. Sango's going to get there in a few minutes if I know her well enough." InuYasha groaned and laid back down as Miroku closed the door. Might as well go and gamble…

……………………………………………………………..

Kagome walked up to the office door. She knocked on the door, and waited.

"Come in." She heard from the other side of the door. Kagome turned the knob and opened the door. I can't believe my boss is my fiancé… it's been two months, and I still can't believe it…

"Hey Kagome." Koga said with a smile as he got up.

"Hi Koga." Kagome replied. Koga got up and escorted her out to an elevator.

"I have the perfect place for our lunch." Kagome looked up.

"Really? Where?"

"Bellagio." Kagome smiled as they walked out of the Venetian and onto the street.

"Are we walking there?"

"Why not?" Koga asked, smiling. Kagome smiled, and they walked to Bellagio. Kagome continued walking for a while, but then couldn't take it anymore.

"Koga…" Kagome started.

"Yes?"

"Why are you covered in perfume and cologne?" Kagome asked. Koga paused his breath a bit, but then continued walking and smiled, but never faced her.

"You must have smelled wrong. I'm not wearing perfume or cologne…"

…………………………………………………

Sango and Ayame sat down with their sandwiches that they ordered.

"I swear, their food never gets sickening…" Ayame said as she took a bite. Sango nodded and she drank her coke, only to spit it out onto Ayame's face as she shouted.

"AAAAIIIIEEE!" Sango got up and slapped something in back of her. After that, Sango peeked open her eyes, and then squealed.

"Miro-poo!" Sango said, and then gave Miroku and big squeeze.

"Sango…need…breathe…"

"Oops." Sango quickly let him go and she smiled. Miroku just sighed.

"You're reaction hasn't changed." Miroku said as he pointed to his cheek. It had a red handprint on it where Sango had slapped. Sango blushed a bit.

"My bad." She said as she sat down. Miroku sat next to her and saw Ayame, face covered with coke and quite angry.

"Ayame?" Miroku asked as he cocked his head. Ayame grumbled a bit, but still kept still.

"Ayame!" Sango shouted. "What happened to— oops… sorry." Sango said as she got a napkin and started wiping Ayame's face lightly. Ayame sighed and washed up as Sango started chatting with Miroku.

"Where have you been? I thought you would have gone and tried to at least look for me!" Sango exclaimed.

"I had some business to take care of, and I thought I'd surprise you here."

"What business?" Sango asked suspiciously. Ayame stopped wiping and listened.

"Well… I had a meeting… and then I was at the hotel room."

"Oh…" Sango replied. She felt that something wasn't quite right, but she didn't bother to really get into it. There seems to be something missing in between though…She thought to herself.

…………………………………………………………………….

"Naraku… stop." A girl muttered.

"Why? I thought we were having fun." He replied as he smiled, and then licked her cheek.

"No, Naraku. Stop." The girl said as she tried to get up.

"What's wrong Ka—."

"Naraku!" A girl calling his name interrupted Naraku. Kikyo…He thought to himself.

"Alright. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye." He said, and he pushed her out the door. Kagura stumbled a bit, but then stood up and walked away, muttering. She soon bumped into someone. She felt herself loosing balance and falling down. Kagura waited for a crash, but it was never felt. She only felt the warmth of someone holding her firmly and helping her stand up.

"Sesshoumaru?"

"Kagura… it's been a while." Sesshoumaru said as he posed his usual no-expression-is-to-be-read face.

"Sesshoumaru. I…I…" Kagura stuttered.

"I freed you from Naraku's grasp like you wanted… and you're still going back." He said calmly.

"I…I'm sorry." Kagura said, bowing her head as she got up.

"There's nothing to apologize for." He bluntly said. Kagura looked up.

"I didn't think that you'd still love me… as you did years ago." Sesshoumaru stared at her, and Kagura wondered where this was heading.

"That's where you're wrong." Kagura's eyes widened. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. What was this? And illusion? Maybe a dream? Maybe she heard only what she wanted to hear, not what she should have heard.

"What…?" She tentatively asked.

"I said you're wrong." Sesshoumaru said. He was still facing her, and she faced him.

"You haven't changed one bit, Sesshoumaru." Kagura said, smiling.

"I have in many ways, Kagura." Kagura smiled. He's still himself alright…

……………………………………………………………………

Kagome walked back to her hotel room. She got one because of her job, but of course, she cleaned up the room herself. She laid on the bed as she thought about what had happened. I still think that Koga isn't telling the truth…She thought to herself. And for some weird reason, which is known to us and not her, she thought about InuYasha as well. InuYasha's kinda hot. I just can't believe he's a jerk. But besides that, he seems like a nice guy. And what's with his 'PMS'? I can see it but—Hold up.. why am I even thinking about him? I have Koga for god's sake, and I'm going to get married. And I love him.

No I don't…

I don't?

I'm having second thoughts about everything, of course I don't.

But I thought that I did…

I thought wrong… he's not The One

I don't even think I have 'The One'

Just because I don't think there's 'The One' doesn't mean there isn't.

But… Kagome sat up. I hate it when I fight with myself… Kagome groaned and got up to take a shower, and tried to clean her mind, but it kept bothering her.

I should call off the wedding before it goes further.

No. I love him. I know I do.

I just want to feel love. I don't really love him.

That's not true…

Yes it is…

No…He proposed. That was meant to be… besides… I don't have anyone else.

There are a lot of guys out there for me though

But I can't… I already found someone who loves me… what more can I ask?

How do I even know? I even smelled the perfume.

He said I was wrong…

I could so tell he lied. And the perfume smelled familiar too.

Kagome shook her head again and got out of the shower. She got dressed in her normal clothes and headed out the hotel room and down the elevator. I'll gamble a bit… get my mind off things… and Koga. For a while, anyways. She went down to the slot machine, but she didn't really see one that she had wanted to play and gamble on. I'll go somewhere else then…She walked around, but then got lost. She looked around frantically, until she bumped into something.

"You alright?" She heard. It was a familiar voice to her. Somewhere, she'd heard that voice before… she just couldn't quite put her finger on it. I know that voice… who is it? It's someone recent too… I think. Kagome looked up.

"It's you!" The two said at the same time. There was a slight pause until InuYasha started talking again.

"Did you come down because you missed me, or is this just a mere coincidence?"

"It's a coincidence…" Kagome replied quickly, and muttered "Jerk" just soft enough for InuYasha to pick up with his dog ears.

"Who's a jerk?" Kagome blinked. He heard me?

"You are."

"I am not."

"How would you know?"

"Because…. Because…why are we even having this damn fight?"

"We?"

"Oh, my bad." InuYasha replied sarcastically. "You're right. You started it." Kagome glared at him, which got InuYasha a bit scared for a second.

"You really are a jerk, you know that?" Kagome said under her gritted teeth and walked away. InuYasha was about to follow her, but the he stopped. Why do I even care? She's just a girl… my maid. I have Kikyo… even though I think I want to break up, I have Kikyo. But why do I suddenly care if I hurt her feelings or not? InuYasha walked back to his hotel, thinking the whole way.
