Chapter 9: Finally set free!

The next day

'Thank god the doors are finally open!' Sango said while walking down the corridor with Miroku. Sango kept a close eye on Miroku just in case he tried to touch her.

'Gosh, Lady Sango, I won't do anything to you so you don't have to keep staring at me as if I'm a thief,' Miroku said giving her his puppy eyes.

'Oh, he looks so cute like that…I mean, what am I talking about. Have I lost my mind?' Sango thought to herself. Miroku took this chance and rubbed her butt. Sango's eyebrow was ticking. She slapped Miroku across the face so many times, that if Miroku hadn't been unconscious she would have kept going.

'I don't get you sometimes,' Sango said, shaking her head while dragging the unconscious Miroku to Kagome's dorm. She opened the door and walked in.

'I am so glad you two…' Sango didn't get to finish her sentence because what she saw was surprising yet amusing.

'Yes, now I can tease them all I want,' Sango said with a glint in her eyes. Miroku just woke up to find the scene they were in. Rubbing his head he managed to stand up. 'Look what we have here,' Miroku said grinning.

'Don't think perverted, baka,' Sango said to Miroku. Miroku looked at Sango to see her furious face. Miroku nodded sadly before screaming out, 'I CAN'T WAIT TO TEASE THEM!'

That woke them up looking at the two with anger. Then they looked at each other. Kagome was on top of Inuyasha. Both looked away, blushing furiously. Sango and Miroku were laughing their heads off.

'You know, you should shut up if you know what's good for you,' Inuyasha said in his deadliest tone. Both stayed quiet trying hard not to laugh. Inuyasha was just about to walk out of the room when he heard a familiar voice.

'OMG! Are you alright Inuyasha? I heard you were stuck in a room with that bitch,' Kikyo said, hugging him while giving death glares to Kagome.

'1. I am not a bitch. 2. It wasn't my fault we got stuck in a room. 3. Get off him!' Kagome screamed.

'Who said you could talk to me like that? Hasn't your mother ever taught you manners?' Kikyo asked.

'Shut up! Both of you,' Inuyasha yelled while pushing Kikyo off. And with that he walked out of the room.

'This is your entire fault,' Kikyo said before walking out of the room, also.

'Argh! I hate that girl!' Kagome said before going into the bathroom to brush her teeth. Miroku and Sango just shrugged before sitting on the couch.

'I'm glad I didn't get stuck in a room with you!' Sango said happily. Miroku just nodded but inside he really wanted to.

'Hey guys, lets go downstairs to get something to eat. I need to stock up on junk food too,' Kagome said walking out of the bathroom wearing a black strapped shirt with flared pants. She looked at all the empty junk food packets. She walked over to them and picked them up and put them in the bin.

'Come on! Or I will lock you two in my dorm' Kagome said walking out of her dorm. Sango quickly followed, for she did not wish to stay with Miroku in Kagome's dorm. Miroku walked slowing out, feeling sad because Sango did not trust him. But then why would she trust him if he always gropes her butt. 'Oh well. Not my fault I inherited these perverted hands of mine' he said was the walked down the escalator to the food court.

'Argh! She just had to come didn't she,' Inuyasha said as he stomped off to the food court to get some food to eat.

'Hey Inuyasha,' Sango screamed as she waved to Inuyasha.

'Great,' Kagome murmured. Of course, Sango heard this and grinned. Inuyasha walked over to the group and saw Kagome's sad face.

'I don't think I'm welcome here,' Inuyasha said turning away.

'No! It's fine,' Kagome said in a hurry. Inuyasha turned back and smiled. Kagome smiled back and they began walking.

'So…what do you wanna eat?' Miroku said, trying to break the silence.

'I'm having sushi,' Inuyasha and Kagome said together. They blushed and turned away. This made Sango and Miroku crack up.

'Well, Miroku and I are having fried rice so we will spilt and meet at the candy chop later on,' Sango said nudging Miroku, and before anyone could protest. Sango dragged Miroku off to the opposite direction of Kagome and Inuyasha, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome alone.

'So…' Kagome said.

'Let's get something to eat! I'm like starving!' Inuyasha said, walking off. Kagome smiled and joined him.

After buying their sushi, they sat down and ate in silence. That was until, Inuyasha broke the silence. 'Sorry about yesterday. I didn't know Kikyo would come,' Inuyasha said looking down at his food.

'No, I'm sorry for making such a fuss over it. I should have just ignored it,' Kagome said looking up. Inuyasha looked up as well. They smiled before continuing to eat while talking. When they were done, they walked together to the candy store while talking about how fun it was in her dorm that day.

'What took you so long?' Sango said, you could tell she was pissed. Inuyasha and Kagome looked to their right to find an unconscious Miroku. 'Hentai,' they both thought. They ignored Sango's whining and entered the shop. There were all the candies in the world in that one tiny shop. Kagome picked out her favourite lollies and headed for the counter.

'I'm pay for that,' Inuyasha insisted putting down his pile of candy too.

'No, it's ok,' Kagome said, searching through her wallet for her money. Inuyasha gave the money to the shop keeper and took his lollies.

'Thanks,' Kagome said, taking her packet of lollies and followed Inuyasha out of the shop.

'Next stop, the chip store,' Sango said as she led the group to the chip shop. Kagome smiled at how Sango was so happy. She was happy to find such friends on a cruise like this. She was lucky to be offered a job where you could be on a cruise serving as well as wondering around. It was then that she remembered that she had to explain her absences to the manager. 'OMG! I totally forgot that I had to go to the manager to explain why I had been away for a day!' Kagome cried as she ran off. 'I said you were sick and couldn't come. They just said ok and that they had to speak to you at 6 today about another singing performance or something like that. Oh and Inuyasha has to go as well,' Miroku said walking off.

'Thank you so much, Miroku! I owe you, now I must go and have a shower and get ready for tonight's meeting,' Kagome said running off after hugging Miroku.

After a good 30 min in the shower. Kagome got out, all dressed and ready to go. She was wearing a white flared skirt with a creamy coloured, strapless shirt. Her hair was down and the only make up she put was lip gloss which was shiny pink. After looking at herself to make sure everything was perfect. She walked out of the room and into the meeting room. Everyone was chatting away until they saw her. The chattering died down as the manager spoke. 'Ah, I see you have come. Well, today's meeting was held to tell you that we need to borrow you once more. You see, the mysterious singer was supposed to sing twice. Once which was last week and twice which is tomorrow to end off our cruise which will be in a couple of days. So we need you to sing twice. We invited our important guest's son here, which I am sure you have met. So you two and cooperate and sing together as a duet,' the manager concluded before sitting down.

'I never knew you could sing,' Kagome said, facing Inuyasha.

'Well, now you do,' Inuyasha said turning away with a 'humph'.

'Well, I assume you guys agree,' the manager said. Before they could protest, the manager continued, 'the song you shall sing is 'at the beginning' By Richard Marx and Donna Lewis.' And with that, he walked out of the room followed by all the other black suited men.

'Son, I am counting on you. My reputation is apart of this. Do me well,' Inutashio said walking out of the room as well. Leaving Inuyasha and Kagome to think. 'Well, what are we waiting for? Let's practice!' Kagome said. They spent the rest of the night practicing and practicing until they got it perfectly.
