Review/Notes for Chapter 6
A/N: Thank you to who-ever has read any chapter of this story and know that I do love this story/plot and I am trying to finish it as best as I can. Since I will soon turn these in to my own and use original characters, it's hard to keep writing when I know I will have to change it all eventually. But know I'm glad you still wait for all my updates!
Sassybratt; Yes, you're correct. Kagome wouldn't use the word 'bitch' often or probably at all, but in that moment I think any one would say that. Also, I came across something that might interest you; see since I have already wrote this story I forgot how exactly everything happened around the time they were getting ready so I googled, yes googled, and I came across my original Blood Behind The Tears that I posted on another writing site! It was horribly written since that was about 3-4 years ago. But I figure out how the rest of my story goes! Hang in there, we are half way and I'm condensing everything to make bigger chapters.
Chapter 7
It's amazing how much thinking you do when you're in the shower.
It must be a combination of the hot water, the steam, and all the silence that surrounds and excloses you in to the small rectangle that makes you think so much. You make your biggest decisions in the shower, when you're alone and the world seems miles ago from you, and as you slip farther in to the burning liquid and it pours down your face and dribbles down your body, making your skin burn and turn red, it calms you down and gets ride of all the unpleasant thoughts running through your head.
And it was the same for Kagome. But she thought about more than a few things in the shower; the writing oppertunity she had, the fight that ended badly with Kikyo and Inuyasha.
The writing oppertunity was an amazing honour and she was blessed to be even considered for it. She honestly didn't want to fight Kikyo, but she wasn't going to back down from her. Especially when it was over Inuyasha. She just wish the other didn't have to suffer in detention for her recklessness. She felt guilty.
Inuyasha. The new yet old love in her life. They fell back together easily and quickly but between the time that was between then and now it seemed like no time had pass, as if they picked up from where they ended things before. She rinsed the conditioner out of her hair, and rain her fingers through the finer pieces. She had to admit that she cared deeply for Inuyasha, more than Bankotsu, and probably more than anyone. She justfelt that as long as he was around she would be safe and than nothing would seperate them.
She was taken out of her thoughts were the scolding hot water turned to freezing cold and it made her almost jump out of her skin. She turned to fasets off and pushed the shower curtain to the side, stepping out on to the shower mat. Grabbing her towel she put on the back of the toilet, she wrapped herself around in it. She grabbed the door handle, pulled the door open and walked to her room.
Sango was sitting on Kagome's bed waiting for her.
Kagome through her brush on to her desk and went in to her closet, trying to figure out what to wear. Sango through herself on to her back and laid down, looking up at the ceiling fan. "What do you want to do tonight?"
Kagome shrugged her shoulders as she pulled a pair of panties up over her legs and then started to search for a matching bra. "Doesn't matter to me. Do you and Ayame want to watch movies at your place?"
Sango started to be mesmerized by the fan, spinning in circles and sending her a light breeze every rotation. "Fine with me, want to stay the night? Than we all can go to detention together." she laughed under her breathe as Kagome turned to face her.
"I'm really sorry I got you detention," she put the arms on her bra on and clipped the back up.
Sango rolled her eyes and stood up walking over to Kagome's desk, she pulled the chair out and sat down. "It's okay. I wasn't going to do anything anyways."
Then Kagome's phone started to go off.
Kagome was in the middle of shaking her hair dry when her phone started to go off. She tilted her head to the side. "Can you answer that for me?"
Sango sighed and went over to Kagome's bag. She looked in all of the pockets and then finally found it in the front. She flipped the cover up and seen Inuyasha flash across the screen. She laughed to herself and answered. "Panty dropper line, Clarice speaking." Sango tried her best Russian accent, but Inuyasha wasn't fooled.
She could hear him laughing on the other side of the line. "Hi Sango. Clarice is a good prostitute name for you. I approve." Inuyasha was at his house with Sesshomaru and Miroku watching tv, when they heard the word 'prostitue' they both forgot about the tv and instantly started to listen to what Inuyasha was talking about.
Sango gave Kagome a look as she finished her hair, Kagome motioned for Sango to give her the phone. Sango reached it out ready for Kagome to take it. "It's Inuyasha," she mumbled as she dropped the phone in to Kagome's hand and walked out of the room. "I'm gonna go get a drink."
Kagome watched as she passed her and closed the door behind her. Once she was gone, she could hear Inuyasha talking on the phone and brought the phone up to her ear. "Hi Inuyasha."
Inuyasha pushed Sesshomaru and Miroku off of him and stood up to walk away from them. He went over to the kitchen and stood beside the sink. "Hello. I think you need to watch out for Sango." he joked around as he heard Kagome laughing.
Kagome played with her hair in her fingers, as she went and sat down on her bed. "What did you call for, anyways?"
He turned around and looked out of the window, Sesshomaru looked back at him and yelled; "Hurry up! The game is starting!"
Inuyasha glared at him and turned back to talk to Kagome. "Do you want to do something tonight? Like go out?" he winced after asking her, hoping she didn't already make plans.
Kagome sighed and he could feel a bad respone starting to come from her lips. "I'm kind of already staying over Sango's house tonight with Ayame," she lingered she words waiting to see if he was going to try to convince her to go with him.
"They could come, too. The guys and I were going to go to a club, it would be fun if you came with us."
Her lips instantly casted a smile on her face, she nodded to herself but when she realized he couldn't see her nodding her quickly said, "Yes, I'll ask the girls if they want but I think they will."
Inuyasha looked over at the guys and gave them a thumbs up; Sesshomaru and Miroku gave each other a high five and turned back around to watch the game. "Alright, we'll pick you guys up are 10 at Sango's house."
Sango was just entering Kagome's room when she was about to say goodbye. "See you than," and when Sango heard she loudly sighed and pretended to hit herself in the face.
Inuyasha started to walk back over to the couch to rejoin the guys in watching the game. "Okay, love you."
Kagome giggled. "Love you too." and she hung up the phone. She through her phone on her bed and turned around to face Sango; standing in front of her with her hands crossed at her chest and leaning to the right with one eyebrow up, waiting for Kagome to tell her the new plan for the night.
Kagome swayed back and forth before saying anything. "How do you feel about going out tonight?"
Inuyasha slipped his phone in to his pocket and went to sit back with the guys. Sesshomaru took up a chair off to the side while Miroku was sitting on the couch, eating some thing out of a bowl. Inuyasha jumped beside Miroku, grabbing a handful of whatever he was eating and stuffed it in to his mouth.
Sesshomaru grabbed the remote from the coffee table and muted the tv. Inuyasha chewed his gums and looked over to his brother. "What are you planning on doing tonight?"
Sesshomaru shrugged his shoulders as a yawn spread his lips wide, shaking it off. "Probably just hang with you guys, don't have much else to do."
He looked over to Inuyasha as he slowly raised an eyebrow at him and gave him a questionable look. "That it?" he pressed on.
Sesshomaru pushed his brother in the shoulder and laughed. "You've been spending way too much time with Miroku." He flipped through the channels, eyeing his brother from the corner of his vision. "What about you?" he mumbled quietly.
"Go out and maybe come back here," Inuyasha started to read the guide but when Sesshomaru stopped him from looking at it and raised at eyebrow towards him. Inuyasha picked up a pillow and through it at him, "Shut up!"
Sesshomaru just laughed at him and clicked on the hockey game. Inuyasha slunked down in to the couch, his legs spreading as he lowered, he crossed his arms and his eyes darted back over to his brother. Miroku got up, running over to the fridge, grabbing a drink and coming back to sit down on the couch, opening his pop as a commercial was about to come on.
"What about you, tough guy?" Inuyasha elbowed Miroku in the side, causing him to spill pop on his pants. Miroku quickly jumped up and tried to dry the pop off of him. He soon gave up and sat back down beside Inuyasha.
Taking a small sip of his pop, "Thank you for that." he mumbled as the pop swished in his mouth before he swallowed.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes nonchalently. "You probably won't do anything anyways tonight." Inuyasha got up and went in to the side room.
Miroku set his drink down on the table and shouted after him. "What's that suppose to me?"
Inuyasha emerged from the small room a few moments later without a shirt and clothes in his hands. He tossed the clothes in to his room and made his way back to Miroku. "You won't hook up with Sango," he shoke his head. "The chance of me hooking up with Sesshomaru is more likely."
Sesshomaru gave a slight have glare over and continued to watch the hockey game.
Miroku lightly chuckled at the thought of it happening. "Don't worry, I have my plans for Sango tonight."
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru both exchanged looks and Inuyasha turned back to face Miroku. "What's your plan?"
Miroku shrugged his shoulders, grabbing his pop, he took a small sip as he leaned back on the couch. "Something." they all laughed together, Inuyasha took the remote from Sesshomaru and shut the tv off on him.
"Come on, the girls will be ready before we are."
Music blarred from girls' apartment as they got ready to go out.
Kagome was sitting on the floor with a four foot mirror in front of her and a straightener in one hand and a comb in the other doing her hair. Sango was sitting at the vanity doing her make-up and Ayame was over on the bed laying on her back trying to get in to the skinny jeans the other two picked out for her.
Ayame gasped for air as she tried to button the jeans. She also had it done but then the air escaped her mouth and her stomach inflatted, causing her to not beable to reach. She sighed. "Can I just go in sweats?"
She stood up with the crotch to her jeans opened as Sango and Kagome looked over at her. "I'm sure the guys wouldn't mind this," she gestured below her waist.
Sango opened her dresser and pulled out a black dress, throughing it over to Ayame. "I think this is more breathable to wear."
Ayame quickly went in to the bathroom to strip out of the death trap of jeans.
Kagome giggled as she left the straightener on the table and got up, checking her hair over. She walked over to the bed and picked up her dark purple dress that she laid out before.
Sango was doing her eyes and seen the color purple come across the mirror. She made a quick glance to see Kagome holding the dress. "That's a gorgeous color for you." she smiled.
Kagome returned to smile and started to get dress.
When she was about to zipper up the dress, she looked over to Sango and seen that she was just staring off in to space. Kagome walked over to her, putting a hand on her shoulder when she got close. "If you don't wanna go just say so and we can stay in and watch movies or something."
Sango snapped out of her daydream and looked up at Kagome, sighing. "No, I wanna go, " she protested, turning herself half way around. "It's just I don't know what will happen with Miroku tonight."
"You like him don't you?" Kagome's eyebrow slowly began to rise. Sango gave her a slight nod. "Then go for it, what's the worst that could happen?"
Sango tilted her head to the side and narrowed her eyes at Kagome. "Completely reject me, say he doesn't and never could feel the same for me as I do for him and leave me a sething mass on the floor..."
"Well," Kagome stated trying to find a good reply. "It probbaly won't be like that. Plus, things may happen with you two." she gave her a quick wink and went back to the mirror to check herself over again.
Sango pushed herself up out of the chair and walked over to her. "What do you mean?" she grabbed a brush and started to comb out her hair.
Kagome played around with her bang as she watched herself in the mirror. "Well, you're still a virgin so it could happen tonight, right?"
After hearing the option pop up in to the conversation, Sango sat down on the bed. Kagome looked back over her shoulder at her; Sango have her legs crossed with her dress barely covering her legs and her arms crossed lightly. "Aren't you?" Kagome asked.
She stayed silent.
Kagome's face suddenly conjorted in to shock, as her mouth opened up and almost engulfed her face. She raised on to her tip toes and her arms flailed around the air. "Really?" she tried to not shout out loud.
Sango motioned her to sit down. "Shh, it's not a big deal." she told her as she shoke her head, wondering if telling her was the smartest idea.
"Not a big deal? I'm your best friend and I didn't know you had sex," Kagome sighed and then took a deep breath, wondering when it had happened. "When did this go down?"
Sango shrugged, trying to say the least amount of details as possible. "Last year on Christmas vacation witht hat guy in our English class," she bit her lip and looked up at Kagome.
Kagome's eyes were the size of plates and her expression was nothing but surprised. She couldn't believe her ears, first her best friend had sex with out telling her and now she saids it was with some one they knew. She felt a little out of the loop.
"Oh I see, well," Kagome didn't know what else to say to that. "You have practice for Miroku!" she winked at her at Sango through a pillow at her with extreme force, pitting a lamp behind them and making it fall over.
Ayame came out of the bathroom when she heard something fall. The door swung opened revealing Ayame in a black cocktail dress and her hair up in a messy half-fast pony tail. She stepped in to the room. "What are you guys doing?" she seen then picking up the lamp and placing it back on the table.
Sango looked over her friend right quick, Ayame did a little dance as she spun around. "What are you doing tonight?"
Ayame shrugged, pulling lip gloss out of her bra, opening it and spreading an even layer over her top and bottom lip. "Just staying with you two probably."
Sango and Kagome gave each other a quick side glance. "That it?" that asked at the same time as they both raised her eyebrows to her.
Ayame sighed. "You two are starting to sound like the guys!"
Sesshomaru was pacing back and worth waiting by the door for the other two to be done getting ready. "You guys ready yet?" he shouted up the stairs.
Inuyasha peeked his head out of the bathroom. "Hold on," he shouted back as he sprayed a little bit of colon and stepped through it. He took a double look in the mirror, making sure he was good and then made his way down the stairs.
Sesshomaru blinked as the smell of Inuyasha's colon floated up in to his nostrils and he pinched back tears. "Uh, who killed the skunk?" he asked as his hand did a windshield motion in front of him to get the smell away.
Inuyasha just rolled his eyes.
Miroku cam running down the stairs from his room. He walked over to the guys and immediately smelt the colon. "Let's go-" he stopped and fell to the floor, passed out.
Sesshomaru chuckled as he lightly kicked Miroku with his foot. "I told you that stuff was nasty."
Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at Sesshomaru before going over to Miroku and kicking him in the stomach. Miroku weezed out in pain from the blow. "Get up, stupid! You're just faking."
Miroku opened his eyes as he laughed. "Yeah but that smelt isn't," he replied as he got up from the ground.
Inuyasha stuck his nose up in to the air. "Only girls like it."
"Until they smell it," he heard Sesshomaru mumble under his breath, nudging Miroku.
Miroku stepped between them. "The girls are probably waiting for us. When are we going to get them?"
Inuyasha srugged his shoulders and pulled out his phone from his jean pocket. "I'll call Kagome and ask." He dialed her number and stepped away from the guys while we waited for her to pick up.
"Hey. Yeah, are you guys ready?" he glanced at his watch. "Okay. We'll come get you guys now. See you soon. Love you too." Inuyasha pulled the phone away from his ear and hung up. Stuffing his phone back in to his pocket, he turned around to face Miroku and Sesshomaru giving him lovey stares. "What are you guys doing?"
They both immitated him on the phone with Kagome, pretending to say cute little romantic things.
Inuyasha began to turn in to seven different shades of red but rolled his eyes."Well, at least I say I love you!"
The two of them were going to retaliate and argue with him, but realized that it was true. "You're right." Miroku said as they both pretended to bow to him.
"The girls are probably waiting for us." Inuyasha stated and they automatically stopped the teasing.
Sesshomaru went over to the key try, grabbing his own. "We can take my car out for the night." He started to slip on his shoes.
Inuyasha crossed his arms and got defensive. "Why do we have to take your car?"
Sesshomaru and Miroku were both putting on their jackets. Sesshomaru pulled his over his shoulders as he fixed the collar and put his hand on the door knob. "Because mine can actually fit all of us."
Inuyasha pouted. "So can mine."
Sesshomaru stopped and decided to play along with his idea. "And where would I sit? Your car only holds five people." Sesshomaru waited to see what bright idea Inuyasha had for that one.
"On the roof, where else?" Inyasha replied, raising his shoulders as Sesshomaru gave him a dirty look.
Miroku grabbed the keys from Sesshomaru and started to head out the door. "We're taking Sesshomaru's car. Let's go, don't wanna keep them waiting." Miroku opened the door and walked out over to the car. Sesshomaru and Inuyasha fought to get out of the house first but Sesshomaru won. Inuyasha turned around and closed the door behind him. They all got in to Sesshomaru's car as he turned on the engine.
When the car came to life, the music was on full blast and he turned it down so it wouldn't deafen them. And then Sesshomaru remembered something. "Did you make sure you locked the door?" He looked behind him at Inuyasha who was laid out in the very back seat.
Inuyasha nodded towards him. "Don't worry about it," he told him as he waved his arm. "Let's go!" he shouted at him as Sesshomaru reeved the gas and took off down the road. And as they left, the front door to the house slowly blew open. there for anyone to come in.
