Teacher's Pet

Chapter 33: Confusion

About halfway through the second Resident Evil movie, it was evident that things were about to get weird.

"Let's play a game!" Ayame suggested.

"Alright. What game?" Miroku asked.

"Truth or dare!"

"I don't really think that's a good idea." Kagome said, shaking her head.

"Why not?" Sango asked, suspicious.

Kagome couldn't come up with a logical reason as to why they shouldn't play truth or dare, so she sighed in defeat and shook her head again. She looked out of her window and noticed that through the dark night sky, it had begun to snow.

"Thought so." It was time that Sango got down to the bottom of things. And she wasn't leaving Kagome's house until she knew everything her best friend was hiding.

Kagome went to the fridge and got out a big bottle of gin. "Whoever refuses a dare has to take three shots. Whoever refuses a question for truth has to take four. And you still get another truth or dare after you take your punishment."

"Ok. Me first." Ayame said. "Koga. Truth or dare?"

"Truth." Koga answered, not really trusting Ayame and her dares.

Ayame rolled her eyes. "Ok fine. Is there anyone you have a crush on?"

Koga's eyes flashed quickly to Kagome. "Yeah."

"But who-"

"My turn! Dog shit! Truth or dare?" Koga directed his turn towards Inuyasha, hoping that he picked dare.

"Dare." Inuyasha said.

"I dare you to run outside, ass naked, and ring all the doorbells on this side of the street." Koga smirked.

"Piece of cake." Inuyasha got up and immediately began stripping.

"Hey! Not right here!" Kagome yelled, blushing slightly.

"Oh come on, Kagome. You've probably seen him naked plenty of times already." Ayame joked while Inuyasha looked at Kagome, then walked to the bathroom.

Kanna watched as Kagome turned bright red, while everyone else laughed. But Kanna knew that her friend wasn't turning red because of what everyone else thought. Kanna also looked at Tsubasa. His face was full of confusion.

Tsubasa watched Kagome. Why was she blushing? And why would she have seen Inuyasha naked already? They couldn't have been dating because he was flirting with her in the store in front of Inuyasha and she hadn't said anything about him being her boyfriend.

Inuyasha emerged from the bathroom with a towel around his waist. He walked to the front door and let the towel fall when he turned the doorknob. Everyone gathered at the door when Inuyasha struck out running down the street, ringing doorbells in the snow. He got all the way down the street, but when he was coming back up, a man and his son were coming outside to see who'd rang their doorbell. Inuyasha ran right past them and waved, continuing on back to Kagome's front door. When he got back, everyone was laughing at him.

"C'mere Kags. Come warm me up." He walked to Kagome with his arms outstretched.

Kagome squealed and hid behind Kanna, still laughing.

"Whoa." Ayame said, looking down at Inuyasha's junk.

"What are you saying whoa for?" Koga sneered. "It's still little."

"One, why are you looking at my shit?" Inuyasha yanked his boxers on.

"Two, it's cold outside and that's still pretty damn impressive. You sure you're not a horse demon?! Damn Kagome, I really wish we could trade places." Ayame laughed.

"No, you don't." Kagome mumbled then sighed. But no one heard her except for Inuyasha, Kanna, and Tsubasa.

Tsubasa made it a point to ask Kagome if she and Inuyasha were dating when it was his turn.

"Now, it's my turn." Inuyasha said, finally dressed. "Sango, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to give Miroku a strip tease." Inuyasha said with a smirk. He knew that was something Miroku wanted that both of them were sure he'd never get.

Now it was Sango's turn to change colors. She went from pale to red to purple in a matter of seconds. "Um...ok." Sango gulped.

"Hang on. Let's have a little talk first, Sang." Kagome grabbed her best friend's hand and took her upstairs. "Here. You're gonna need to wear this." Kagome handed Sango some brand new lingerie.

"I'm not even gonna ask why you have this." Sango laughed, going into Kagome's bathroom to put on what Kagome had given her. She walked out in just the underwear for Kagome's approval.

"Well hot damn, Sango. You're sexy!" Kagome laughed. "Now put these on." Kagome gave Sango some black shorts, a sexy shirt, and some heels. Sango put on the other clothes, then added a robe on top. "Use that sexiness on Miroku. You ooze sex appeal. You just don't think you do."

The two best friends walked back downstairs. Sango, wearing a nervous smile on her face, and Kagome wearing a confident one. Sango led Miroku into another room and closed the door. They heard music playing and all looked at each other.

"What'd you say to her Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.

"I just told her to use her sex appeal to her advantage. I mean, Sango's a cheerleader. We're just naturally sexy." Kagome giggled.

Tsubasa nodded his head in agreement. Kagome was sexy. But there was more to her than her sex appeal. Tsubasa got the sense that she was incredibly smart, and she was really fun to be around. He really wanted to get to know her more.

After ten minutes of them laughing in the living room, Sango and Miroku came out of the room they were in. Sango with a triumphant look on her face, and Miroku with a dazed look on his.

Inuyasha laughed. "Sango, your turn."

"Hmmm…Tsubasa. Truth or dare?" Sango asked.

"Truth." Tsubasa played it safe for now.

"Do you like Kagome?" Sango was blunt with her question.

"Yes, yes I do." Tsubasa answered honestly.

"Well did you know that she's-"

"Reeeeally thirsty?!" Kagome interjected. "I think I need something to drink. Anybody else need anything to drink?" Kagome rose from her spot on the floor and went into the kitchen. She got herself a glass of water and just stood at the sink, gulping it down. "I'm so friggin stupid! Why did I even invite him?" She whispered to herself.

"That's a good question. One I'd like to know the answer to myself." Tsubasa entered the kitchen after Kagome.

Kagome shook her head then walked back into the living room with the rest of her friends. Tsubasa followed her and sat down beside her. "Truth or dare, Kagome?"

"Truth." Kagome answered.

"Are you dating Inuyasha?" Tsubasa got straight to the point. He wasn't about to beat around the bush.

"Pass." Kagome answered.

Ayame handed Kagome four shot glasses and filled them with gin. "Take 'em!"

"Wait. Why didn't you answer the question?" Sango asked.

"Because I didn't want to." Kagome said, taking two shots back to back. She was about to take her last two when Sango interrupted her.

"Why didn't you want to?"

Kagome sighed. "Because I didn't, Sango." Kagome took her last two shots.

"Ok then. So why did you invite me?" Tsubasa tried a different approach.

"Because I wanted plates and someone was badgering me for my name and number." Kagome smiled.

Tsubasa couldn't help but smile at her antics. "Fine. I'll accept that. For now."

Ayame, Koga, Miroku, and Sango watched Kagome and Tsubasa flirt. All of them looked at Inuyasha, then looked back at Kagome.

"Kanna, truth or dare?" Kagome turned to her quiet friend.

"Truth." Kanna said softly.

"Do you have a crush on anyone?" Kagome nudged Kanna.

Kanna turned bright red and shook her head furiously. "No."

The group laughed at Kanna and she stuck her tongue out at them. She was coming out of her shell, slowly but surely. She was growing more comfortable with the people that she was constantly surrounded by. Of course, she would always be more comfortable with Kagome and Inuyasha than anyone else, but that was only because they knew the most about her. She just hoped that they didn't figure out what she was hiding.

After a few rounds, everyone was loosened up and the game was really going.

Sango, "Truth or dare, Koga?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss Ayame." Sango smirked.

Koga shrugged and turned to Ayame. He placed his lips on Ayame's, but he didn't expect her to pounce on him in her drunken state.

"Wooo!" Inuyasha and Miroku cheered when Ayame pinned Koga to the ground and kissed him with all the passion she could muster.

"Well damn Ayame." Kagome laughed when she finally let Koga up.

Ayame blushed but Koga had an expression on his face that said he'd get Ayame back as soon as they were alone.

"Alright. Tsubasa, truth or dare?" Koga turned to the newcomer.

"Dare."

"I dare you to…" Koga paused and looked at Inuyasha. "I dare you to give Kags a lap dance." He laughed at himself, slightly intoxicated.

Tsubasa smirked. "In here or in private?"

"In here!" Inuyasha yelled. He knew that if Tsubasa took Kagome somewhere, there was no telling what would happen.

Tsubasa shrugged. "Fine with me." He grabbed a chair and sat Kagome in it. "Don't move unless I move you." He whispered lowly in her ear.

Now, for anyone that knew Kagome, they knew that she was one to get horny the more she drank. And at this point, Kagome was relatively intoxicated, so when Tsubasa whispered in her ear, a chill went both up and down her spine. Tsubasa stepped back and looked Kagome in her eyes when she shivered and he smirked again. This was going to be a lot of fun.

Tsubasa pulled out his phone and played a slow song and began grinding his hips in front of Kagome. He danced for her for about three minutes, and right before the song was over, he picked Kagome up and placed her legs on his shoulders, with her crotch in his face. Kagome screamed in shock when he placed her back against a wall while her legs were still on his shoulders.

When the song ended, Tsubasa put Kagome on her feet right in front of him. Kagome looked up at him, her face red, and her eyes slightly glazed over.

"Truth or dare?" Tsubasa said lowly.

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss me."

Kagome hesitated for a few seconds, then she stood on her tiptoes and placed her lips on Tsubasa's. He placed his hands on her hips, pulling her closer to him. He tasted the liquor on her tongue and it mixed with his own.

Someone behind them coughed and the two broke apart and shyly walked back to the spots they'd been sitting in.

"Since no one else is going to ask, I will." Sango started. "What the hell was that?!"

"What was what?" Kagome asked, playing coy.

"Let's play another game!" Kanna said loudly. "How about hide and seek?"

"What?" Koga laughed. "That's a kid game."

"We play in complete darkness. Kagome's gonna mask our scents. And she's gonna turn down the hearing of the demons. First person to get found has to take eight shots. The next person has to take seven, and so on and so forth." Kanna explained the rules, not used to having all of the attention on her.

"Sounds like fun!" Ayame hiccupped slightly.

Kanna's interruption didn't go unnoticed by Sango, but everyone else was mostly oblivious because of the liquor that was in their systems.

"Alright. Who's it?" Kanna asked. The liquor had loosened her up a bit, making her more talkative. When no one volunteered, Kagome went into the kitchen and pulled out a 12 pack of Strawberry Lime-a-ritas.

"Whoever is the last to finish their drink is it." She passed the drinks out and counted down to one. "Go!"

Everyone opened their drinks and chugged them down. Kagome was the first to finish, then Sango and, then Tsubasa and Inuyasha, then Miroku and Koga. Ayame didn't get to finish her drink because of her hiccups.

"Dammit! Why do I have to be it?" She pouted, then hiccupped. "Alright, alright. I'll count to 30 and you all had better be hidden."

Kagome turned all the lights off in the house and rendered the demons in the house nothing more than humans for the time being. The other seven scampered away, trying to find a place to hide while Ayame hiccupped her way through numbers.

Kagome, knowing her house better than anyone else should've had no trouble maneuvering her way through her dark domain, but with the liquor in her system, it was fairly more difficult. Tsubasa followed Kagome, wanting a few answers out of her. There was no way he was going to let her get away with kissing him like that.

Kagome felt Tsubasa following her. She wasn't really concerned with him following her, more than she was about hiding. She would have to answer him, but not now. She wasn't ready to explain anything because she didn't have an explanation herself. So she picked up her pace and got away from Tsubasa. Since hide and seek was a quiet game, it gave her time to think while her and her friends were being sought out. Kagome had a feeling that even without the liquor in her system, she'd still be confused. Damn, she'd gotten herself into a bit of a situation. Now, the only question was, how was she going to solve it?
