Enemies or Lovers
Chapter 5
"So…what are you going to tell me?" she asked.
"Can I…can I ask you out…on a date?" Inuyasha said nervously.
………
Kagome was stunned for a few minutes, unable to speak. Has this person eaten something wrong for breakfast or what?…Oh yeah, her mother might have forced him…
"I would be happy to accept the invitation if it was sincere but as I see and according to the circumstances, you are forced to invite me on this so-called 'date'.
"Oh come on. Don't make it hard for me. Just say yes so that we can finish this conversation." Inuyasha said, his temper slowly reaching boiling point.
"What did he say Kagome?"
"He's forcing me to go out with him. Please, leave me be mom. Just for a while." Kagome said to her mother.
"What? Are you going?" Inuyasha asked.
"And ruin my weekend with you? I think not!" Kagome said indignantly.
"Okay, just to make you come…I promise I'll behave. No more tricks or jokes, no more you-know-what." He said desperately.
"What's you-know what?" Minami asked her son.
"Nothing mom. It's between the two of us." He excused. "So…will you come?" he said to Kagome.
"Oh, okay. Just to make you and me rest from this stupid telephone conversation." Kagome replied exasperatedly, desperate to end their talk.
"Yes! Thank you! You're a lifesaver! I'll pick you up by eight in the morning tomorrow okay? Bye…" and the line went dead.
She replaced the phone in the receiver and turned to see her mother's expectant look.
"So, what's the news?" Akira asked her daughter.
"I'm going out tomorrow…" she groaned
"And?" Akira inquired expectantly.
"I'm with him."
"Yay! I told you Souta! Your sister do like her fiancé!" their mother shouted excitedly.
Kagome rolled her eyes at her mother and let out a long sigh.
'Why did I enter myself into this stupid situation!'
………
"KAGOME! WAKE UP!" her mother shouted early in the morning. Obviously, she was excited about her daughter's date.
It was weird actually and a little scary. Mothers should protect their daughters from men especially the type of Inuyasha.
But no…Kagome's mother is actually pushing her.
'Argh why don't you go with that git instead?' Kagome said to herself, still feeling sleepy. She turned to look at her alarm clock.
"Mom…it's just five thirty." She remarked going back to sleep.
"No, no, no. You stand up now. You should prepare for your first date. You should be beautiful so that your fiancé will realize that he's very lucky to have you." Akira said to her daughter now urging Kagome to stand up and go to the bathroom.
"Does that mean I'm lucky to have him?" she asked, rubbing her eyes and yawning to let out her sleepiness.
"Yes, of course! You are very lucky to have him. He's rich, I'm sure he's kind to like her mother. I heard he's intelligent to and very popular at school. And, most importantly, he could protect you from danger because of his youkai blood." Her mother replied.
"But he's just a hanyou right? He's still half-human…" she asked to clarify things.
"Yes, of course, Kagome. I would have put you in danger if I engaged you to a youkai." Her mother replied, her face suddenly becoming serious.
"Oh, yeah…Lucky me." Kagome said to herself sarcastically still thinking of her fate with that Inuyasha.
A few minutes later she went out and got ready to dress up. She looked lazily at her closet and chose her attire for that day.
She wore a stylish violet blouse that has three fourth sleeves. With that, she chose a pair low-waist pants and a pair of high-heeled sandals to match. After that, Kagome combed her hair and put on two clips to fix it in place.
She got her purse, put her money in and she was ready to go for her doom.
She went down and her mother met her with so much enthusiasm. "Oh, Kagome! You are so gorgeous! I'm sure he'll marvel at your looks."
"Yeah, right." Kagome answered her face dark.
"Now, now, Kagome don't be like that. You should be smiling! This is your first date with him after all." Akira encouraged.
Kagome stayed silent at this. She still wished these were all a dream…a very bad dream where she came to be. She wanted to wake up now.
But the sad thing is…all these are real. And it makes her sick…really sick.
She has to wait for another hour because she prepared too early. By eight o'clock, a beep was heard outside of their house.
"It's him." Kagome said nonchalantly. Her mother excitedly got out of the kitchen to open the door for her daughter.
"Good luck Kagome! Have a nice time with him!" she shouted while waving at her daughter who is already walking towards the sports car parked outside.
"You wish…" the girl muttered giving the boy inside the car a dark look.
"Hi. Thanks for accepting my invitation. As I promised you yesterday, I won't do anything stupid…" Inuyasha said as he went out of his own car to open the door of the passenger's seat for Kagome. "So you can seat here." He added, gesturing inside.
Kagome looked at him doubtfully to see if there was any mischievous plan working in his naughty brain.
"Go on inside." He said, again gesturing the seat inside the car.
'This situation is for gentlemen only…and the weird thing is he is acting like one…' she thought.
"Aren't you going inside? Our time is going to be wasted you know…" Inuyasha spoke making Kagome break from her train of thoughts.
"Okay…" she said slowly, finally getting into the car.
Inuyasha closed the door and returned to his own place to drive to their destination.
"Where are we going anyway? I forgot to ask you yesterday." Kagome asked, making a conversation between the two of them.
"I thought you would like to go to an amusement park…" he replied.
"Okay, that would be fine." Then she spoke no more.
Kagome was looking at him sideways. His face looks serious and mature. This makes his handsome and so attractive.
'Wait…what am I thinking? Him? Handsome and attractive? Never!" Kagome told herself angrily.
"The one I told you yesterday…" Inuyasha said.
"About what?" Kagome interrupted.
"I was really sorry about the incident that happened in my house. I swear I didn't mean it. I just get like that sometimes especially when I'm angered. I wish you could forgive me…I mean really forgive me." He said, his face still serious.
Kagome stayed silent, thinking. She smiled inwardly and said, "Okay, I forgive you already. I already did yesterday."
"Thanks." He answered. Inuyasha was smiling now.
'Strange.'
They continued on driving until they reached the amusement park. They found a bench and Inuyasha left her for a moment.
When he came back, he was holding two large ice creams. He handed one to Kagome as he said, "Can we start out as friends?"

Is it okay? To tell you the truth, this is just an impromptu fic. I didn't know what I was typing…I just let my fingers do the typing and my mind do the thinking. Sorry for the grammatical errors, if there are some in this chap.
I really hope you enjoyed it. I'll update by the end of October if ever we have a semestral break. See you next time…
