Ch. 2

Kagome and Inuyasha have really gotten to know each other better over the two months that he's been there. It was starting to reflect in their actions like when he would wait for her after her classes even though he would be late for his own or when he would carry her books for her. One day while in the café Kagome and Sango were sitting in silence. Sango just kept staring at Kagome while she was drinking her coffee.

"What, this is the fifth time I caught you staring at me do I have something on my face?" Kagome said looking up over the top of her cup.

Sango closed her eyes and set down the cup that she ignored the whole time that she was there. "Kagome, what's with you and dog boy?"

Kagome blinked a few times, "What, what do you mean?"

"You know what I mean, you two have gotten awfully close, are you two…"

"What, no, we're just friends. I just met him anyway, and I told you I don't want to be with another guy." Kagome said cutting her off.

"You can't put off guys, that's just like not breathing. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have Miroku."

"Sango, I'm not like you, besides you and Miroku have known each other since middle school. The only guy I've known for so long is Sesshomaru."

Then the door opened.

"Speaking of the devil." Sango whispered to Kagome as he walked further in.

"Talking about me are you, I didn't know that I was that popular." He said while smirking at them and taking off his sunglasses.

They both rolled their eyes then Sango said, "Don't you have some typing to do, you usually sit in your corner and get on your lab top whenever you come in here."

Sesshomaru's smirk faded into a frown, "Why yes I do, unlike you, I have business matters, but I suppose that you will never understand." Then he walked off to sit in his usual place.

"I can't believe him, what a selfish jerk." Sango said watching him.

"That's Sesshomaru for you." Kagome said watching him as well.

Then Sango turned her attention back to her. "So Kagome, when are you planning to start your relationship with him?"

Kagome whipped her head back to Sango and glared at her, "I told you, I don't want a relationship." Sesshomaru just looked from the corner of his eyes, listening into their conversation. "I'm fine I don't need anyone so stop worrying about me."

"If you say so, but…"

"Shush, no more please."

Kagome's phone rang. "It's Inuyasha." Sesshomaru's eyes widened at the sound of his name.

"I wonder what he wants." Sango smirked and narrowed her eyes to which Kagome glared at her. Sango didn't seem fazed as she sipped her coffee.

"Hello?" She said on her phone seeing as her glare had no effect on Sango.

"Kagome, um…I was just wondering if you had anything planned tonight." Inuyasha said in nervous tone.

"No I don't, what's going on."

"Well you see there's a party for one of my friend, Hojo. They asked me and my band to play at his party, I was wondering if you would like to see me perform, your friend can come too if she like."

Kagome looked slightly shocked "Really, okay then."

"Great then, I'll come and get you around 5:30." She heard a click and turned her head to see Sango smirking at her in a deviant way. "It's not what you think."

"Yes it is you got a date with him."

Then they heard the sound of a lab top closing slightly harder than usual. They saw Sesshomaru stand up while putting on his sunglasses on and quickly walked toward the door. "What's his problem?" Kagome said watching him leave out.

"Don't worry about him you know how he is sometimes, besides you have to worry about what you're going to wear tonight for Inuyasha."

"Sango, he invited you too so it's not a…" Before she could finish what she wanted to say, she was pulled up from her seat and taken out the building.

They got to her apartment soon after and went straight to her room. "So what time is he coming?" Sango asked while going in her closet and tossing clothes out her closet, making a mess.

"He said he'll be here around 5:30. Why do I have to dress up for him, it's not a date, and I'm not the one who's going to clean this mess up." Kagome said while looking at all of the clothes pile up on the ground.

"I'll clean it up but you should look presentable at least, even if it's not a date but I can tell these things."

Kagome rolled her eyes before seeing the scavenging girl turn around with a very evil smile suggesting that she found something that wasn't meant to be found. Kagome braced herself for the worse as Sango showed her what she found.

"Kags, I didn't know you were into this kind of thing."

"What! I thought I got rid of that, that's what Koga bought for me for my eighteenth birthday."

It was a black leather bustier that zipped in the front. She hated looking at it because it not only reminded of her of Koga but it wasn't her style, Koga just forced her to keep it complaining that he had to walk in a women's lingerie store and spend a great amount on it because it was real leather. He also muttered something about their honeymoon night, which seems unlikely now.

"Come on buddy, please." Sango begged while doing the puppy eyes thing. "I only got your best interest in mind."

"Fine but I'm picking out the rest of my outfit, there's no telling what else you'll find in there, for all I know you may find a mini skirt or something." Kagome said while walking to her closet. It was true that she didn't know what's all in her closet, because it's huge and full of clothes. She has so much that she can probably create her own clothing store.

She found a pair of her favorite blue jeans that cupped at the bottom. She wore her black rhinestone belt and some black sandals. She let her hair rest over her shoulders hoping that it will cover her chest some. The top that she wore made her feel exposed even though she wasn't. Sango then looked for a set of clothes to wear. They traded clothes all the time since they were the same size. She found a purple tank top which matched perfectly with her purple slip-on shoes she kept her black jean kepis on. She put her hair in a bun and put some purple hair sticks in her hair.

Soon after they were done dressing, there was a knocking at the door. "That must be him, are you ready for your date?" Sango said while heading to the door.

"No but I'm ready to go out with my friends." Kagome said while following then and opening the door. Inuyasha stood there about to greet them when his eyes set on Kagome. He looked her up a few times with his mouth hanging wide open.

"Snap out Yasha." Kagome said while snapping her fingers in front of his eyes though he was too lost to get out his trance. He finally showed signs of coming back when Sango pulled on his ears. He absolutely hates it when someone messed with his ears.

"Hey, how many times do I have to tell you not to touch my ears?" Inuyasha yelled at her when she wouldn't stop.

She smiled simply before saying, "Well I had to do something, and you're going to be late if we don't leave soon."

"Oh right, let's go."

They left the apartment, Inuyasha and Kagome in his car and Sango in her own. Kagome begged Sango not to leave her alone with Inuyasha but she came up with the excuse of getting Miroku to come once she knew where the party was going to be at, which was a gym. The trip didn't take long although it did feel like it to Kagome being that she was riding with Inuyasha. When they got there, she could see people running around, setting things up and such.

"I got to go help my band mates. It won't take me long but you can do what you like till the party start which is at 7:00." Inuyasha said getting out of the car. She nodded her head and watched him walk off to greet his friends.

"So how was your ride?" Sango said while walking over casually to her.

"Don't you have a pervert to get?" She said while glaring at her.

"You want to come with me or do you want to stay and watch your boyfriend work?"

Kagome didn't even bother arguing with her. She just got in her car and the two girls left to go to Miroku and Sango's apartment.

"Kagome, I haven't seen you around in a while." Miroku hugging her at the door while giving her his signature groping. He ended up with two bumps on his head from both girls. He was about to hug Sango when she put her fist up to him, "Do it and you'll have a third bump on your head to go with your collection." He then just decided to kiss her which usually calmed her down whenever she was mad at him.

"So what are you two ladies up to today?" Miroku asked closing his door behind him.

"Kagome has a date tonight and I was I was invited to go. I thought it wouldn't be fun to be with someone on a date alone so I decided to see if you would like to come." Sango said of course receiving another glare from Kagome.

"Don't listen to her, it's not a date, my friend is in a band and is performing for a friend of his at a party. He invited both of us and she wanted to know if you want to come with us."

"You know I'm up for a good party, sure I'll go." Miroku said as he went to his room. With a quick change of clothes, he was ready and the three of them went back to the gym.

As soon as they made it back, the party looked ready to start. Some people were already there, most were watching or listening to Inuyasha and his band practice for the show that they would put on. The time rolled around quickly and soon music was heard, food was being served, and people were having fun. Kagome was having so much fun, she never knew that she could have that much excitement. Then when Inuyasha held his hand out for her to pull her on the stage, she felt as if she was dreaming. After while, things cooled down and it was time to go. Sango and Miroku left a long time ago but not before they helped cleaned up some. Inuyasha took Kagome back home seeing that she didn't have any other way back.

"Thanks Yasha, I had a very great time. I can't remember the last time I had so much fun." Kagome said while opening her door.

"Same here." He said standing at the door frame.

"So, I guess this is goodnight."

"No." He said before his lips had locked onto hers. She blinked a few times before taking him in slowly.

"Now it's goodnight. Kagome, I really do like you, I just wanted to wait until the time was right to do that." He said stroking her cheek.

She wrapped her arms around his neck tightly and kissed him back. When they part he slowly backed away, not wanting to leave but not wanting to take their new relationship any further yet. She closed the door behind him and sighed. "Sango was right, it was a date." She let smile spread across her face and danced her way back to her room, falling asleep soundly.
