Hey guys. Thanks for all the reviews. Though I like long ones, but thanks for putting a word or two in anyway! Well hope you enjoy this new chapter.
It's Only A Game, Right?
Inuyasha and Kagome pushed through the crowd. Everyone was dancing, since the DJ had got the music started again.
"Where exactly are we going?" Kagome asked, as she narrowly missed getting bumped.
"I told you. We're looking for my friends. All of them, except for Shippo, that is." He said, mumbling the last part.
Kagome nodded. "So, I can assume your friends are preps too?"
Inuyasha ducked under someone's arm while they were trying to dance. "Pretty much. Not as rich as me, but yeah, they're up there."
Kagome chuckled. "Interesting."
Finally, they made it to the back of the club and they were in front of a group of 5 people.
Inuyasha cleared his throat and they all looked up at him. "Everybody, this is Kagome."
Sango was the first to speak because she knew her slightly better than the rest of them. "Hi Kagome. It's been a long time since we last spoke."
Kagome smiled. "Same for you. Things just seem to change after junior high."
Inuyasha snorted. "Whatever. Kagome, this is Miroku, Sango, as you already know, Bankotsu, Midoriko, and unfortunately Shippo."
"Hey!" Shippo yelled.
Kagome didn't seem to care to much. Back to her goth attitude, Inuyasha guessed. He liked her even more when she was bubbly and liked to kid around. What was up with that girl?
"Hi." She said, simply.
Midoriko suddenly clapped her hands together, causing everyone to look at the senior. Well, she was a senior for her grade level, not senior as in old person.
"I have a wonderful idea!" She said.
Then it was quiet and everyone stared at her. "What?"
"What's the idea?" Sango asked.
Midoriko frowned. "I didn't think you'd want me to tell you now."
Everyone sweat-dropped. I didn't know people with black hair could act like blondes. Kagome thought, as she watched Midoriko ramble on.
"Let's go in the VIP room. Just the seven of us! It's too loud out here!" She said, whining the last part.
"Im up for that." Miroku said.
"You're up for anything that involves privacy." Sango retorted.
"I guess we're all going, then." Kagome said.
Bankotsu raised a brow. "Since when did you start calling the shots, emo chick?"
Kagome smirked and walked over to Bankotsu. She leaned down close to him. So that there faces were almost touching.
"Since forever." She whispered, in his ear. She could practically feel him shudder, then she smirked and backed away from him, right back to Inuyasha's side.
Inuyasha was having trouble suppressing a growl that had erupted from deep within his chest. He didn't like that just now. But, the others didn't seem to care to much. So, he should act like he didn't.
Midoriko blinked, then got up. "Uh, okay. Let's get going."
Everyone nodded and followed her to the VIP room. Why not let her lead the way.
333333333333333
Everyone sat in the VIP room. It had a real hanging-out kind of feeling. There was one long couch, that curved. A bed in the far right, Im sure you can guess for what reasons. A TV, and then the rest was just the room's red carpet.
"So, what the hell are we going to do?" Inuyasha asked, leaning back, against the couch while he was sitting on the floor.
Everyone turned to look at Midoriko. "What?"
Kagome sighed. "Well, you brung us in here ya ditz. What did you intend for us to do?"
Midoriko frowned. "Watch it junior emo bitch. I was going to say it, just not right away."
Kagome pursed her lips. "Refrain from calling me bitch."
Midoriko smirked. "Bitch."
Everyone stared in shock, as a second later Midoriko was pinned on the floor with Kagome yanking her hair.
"Holy Shit! This is hot!" Miroku said, continuing to watch.
Sango gaped. "Oh my God. I didn't think she would snap like that."
Shippo licked a lollipop. "Mm. Multi-flavored."
Everyone sweat-dropped.
Inuyasha, being the only with an ounce of common sense left, rushed over to the two girls, just as Midoriko bitch-slapped Kagome.
"Hey! No fighting! Calm the hell down!" He yelled, picking up Kagome, who was still kicking and squirming around and even hitting him, as he tried to throw her onto the couch.
Inuyasha whipped around. "Midoriko! Dont say shit else to Kagome!" He yelled, then finally succeeded in throwing Kagome on the couch.
Kagome scowled. "Why'd you stop me?! I hate snobby bitches like her!"
Sango now regained her common sense, considering Miroku never seemed to have any in the first place.
"Kagome, try to calm down. Midoriko isn't saying anything more, fight's over, looks like you won, so stop yelling."
Kagome huffed, then put on her goth I-dont-care attitude. "Whatever. Just keep her away from me."
Sango smiled. "You've changed a lot Kagome. But, she'll be way on the other side of the room. Nothing to worry about."
Kagome frowned. Sango was still somewhat peppy and temperamental. She used to be like that all the time. But after that happened. It just wasn't the same being peppy anymore.
Inuyasha straightened his shirt and sat down on the floor, next to Kagome.
Midoriko sighed heavily and straightened her hair. "Okay, now we're going to play a little game."
Bankotsu quirked a brow. "Aren't party games a little kiddy?"
Midoriko smiled. "But this isn't just some type of game. We're going to play Truth Or Dare. To the extreme." She said, darkly.
Kagome made scary ghost-like motion with her hands. "Whoo! How scary!"
Sango fell over laughing and Shippo did too.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "Okay, so Truth or Dare to the extreme, how do we do it?"
"Simple. You just ask intimate questions, when truth. Intimate actions when dare." Midoriko said.
Miroku smiled. His special smile. His special perverted smile. "Im in!" He yelled, throwing his hand in the air.
Kagome chuckled. "I dont really have a choice." She said.
Inuyasha nodded. "Eh, why not.
Sango sighed. "Im gonna regret this."
Shippo smiled. "So long as I have my candy, I'll be safe from anything."
Everyone sweat-dropped.
"Yeah, yeah, Im in." Bankotsu said.
"Great! I'll go first! Miroku, truth or dare?"
Miroku smiled. "Dare." He said. You could hear Kagome going 'whoo' from behind him.
Midoriko smirked. "I dare you, to go hug Inuyasha and tell him you love him."
Miroku frowned. "Shit."
Inuyasha frowned more. "Hell no!"
Kagome chuckled. "Come on, Inuyasha. Live a little."
Inuyasha stuck his tongue out at her.
Miroku gulped then got up, he timidly put his arms around the angry and embarrassed hanyou.
Sango fell over laughing, already.
He patted his back and gulped. "I-I love you man."
The whole room erupted in laughter. Inuyasha's face was as red as a tomato's and Miroku looked like he been to hell and back.
Midoriko caught her breath as Miroku shrank over to the other side of the room. "Okay. It's your turn Sango."
Sango nodded. "Uh, Bankotsu, truth or dare?"
Bankotsu looked nonchalant. "Truth."
That shocked everyone in the room.
"Um, okay. How do you know how to braid?" She asked, pointing to his long black braid.
"I used to date a hair-dresser. I learned some things." He said.
Everyone nodded. Well, they could've asked him that on a daily basis.
Midoriko coughed. "Sango, that was not an intimate question. Remember, this isn't some kiddy version of Truth or Dare. It's the extreme." She said, again, you could hear Kagome saying 'whoo' in the back.
Inuyasha sighed. "Whatever. Your turn Miroku."
Miroku smiled a mischievous smile. "Sango, truth or dare?"
Sango thought it over. Hmm, why not take a chance. She thought. "Dare."
Miroku smiled again. "I dare you to make out with me, right here, right now."
Sango's eyes bulged out of her head as Kagome fell over laughing. "What!? I-Im not doing that!"
"Oh, but you have to." Midoriko interjected.
Sango sighed. "Fine." She said, leaning over to Miroku and wrapping her arms around his neck. She pulled his face down to hers and their lips met. Sango's face, by the way, was a bright red color.
"Whoo! Go Sango!" Kagome yelled, still laughing her ass off.
The two parted, panting. "Okay. Done." Sango said, getting up and sitting back where she was.
Kagome was still laughing. Inuyasha was starting to chuckle a bit at Miroku's expression.
"I didn't think she'd actually do it." He said, blinking stupidly.
Sango's face never returned to the right color. "Hmp. Fine. Kagome, your turn. Truth or Dare."
Kagome's eyes twinkled with mischief. "Dare."
Sango smirked. That's not good. She rarely smirks. "I dare you to make out with Inuyasha in front of all of us."
Inuyasha fell over.
Kagome stared with her mouth wide open. "You gotta be frickin' kidding me."
"Nope."
Kagome sighed as she walked over to Inuyasha, and pulled him back up since he fell over.
Midoriko chuckled from the other side of the room. "Remember. Do this, but to the extreme."
Kagome made the 'whoo' noise as Inuyasha eyed her in front of him.
Kagome smirked. "Well, get ready, prep." She said, holding his knees all of a sudden, and kneeling in his lap. Remember people, Inuyasha is sitting down with his legs folded. Indian-style.
Inuyasha didn't object as Kagome's face was suddenly right next to his. She wrapped her arms around his neck. One arm subconsciously gripped her waist. Kagome smirked one more time before plunging in. Inuyasha didn't hesitate in the least to return. And with fervor.
Miroku had his mouth wide open. "Damn..." He muttered in awe.
Sango's eyes were die open. "Oh my."
Bankotsu licked his lips. "That's hot."
Midoriko smirked. "To the extreme, indeed."
Shippo smiled. "Mmm, almond."
Everyone sweatdropped.
Meanwhile, Kagome and Inuyasha were in a state of pure bliss. Kagome hadn't wasted any time really getting into the 'kiss'. Her hands were entangled in Inuyasha's hair. She had partially slid off his slap. He was partially on top of her. His hands clenching her waist tight, one of his legs entangled in hers.
Sango blinked. "You dont think they'll just go all the way right here, do you?"
Miroku smiled. "I sure hope so."
Sango scowled and smacked him upside the head. Shippo was still busy being one with his candy.
Midoriko was blinking in shock. Bankotsu was on the verge of passing out from the scene.
When they looked back, Kagome was completely on top of Inuyasha now. They had been going at it for a good seven minutes now. They thought maybe they should stop it soon, but they were way too entranced with the other.
Inuyasha's hand somehow ended up getting under Kagome's shirt, and his hand on her butt. Hmm, wonder how that got there.
Just then, there was a knock on the door and Naraku popped his head in. "Hey, you guys, Im here with the booz."
Kagome immediately flipped Inuyasha off of her. She took a look at Naraku and got up and straightened her shirt and pants. Inuyasha saw something flash threw her eyes. It wasn't anything that looked like longing or something, but more like desperation.
Naraku finally seemed to notice her and smirked a bit. "Why, hello, Kagome."
Kagome furrowed her brows, and pushed past him and out of the room.
Inuyasha looked from Naraku to the door, then back to Naraku, then the door again, and got up and walked towards the door too.
Midoriko gasped. "Inuyasha? Where are you going?"
He had stood up so abruptly. Almost without saying a word.
"That's your extreme, Midoriko." He said, before leaving out of the room.
33333333333333333333333
Inuyasha pushed through the crowd again and continued to look for Kagome. Muttering apologies, he ran faster with his hanyou speed and found himself at the front entrance of the club.
Inuyasha sighed. Kagome's scent was almost gone. He'd have to hurry.
He burst through the doors and ran outside. Just as soon as he did, he saw Kagome already walking, somewhat jogging down the sidewalk.
"Kagome!" He shouted as he ran to catch up with her. Kagome stopped walking at the sound of his voice. She slowly turned around.
"Inuyasha?" She said, quietly. Why was she acting so small and quiet now? What was wrong with her?
"Kagome? Kagome, what's wrong? Why'd you run out like that?"
Kagome didn't look at him for a moment. "I-I just remembered that I had to go. Uh, sorry." She said, stepping closer to him.
Inuyasha nodded. "Aren't you cold? You only have a tanktop on. Want me to drive you home?"
Kagome thought it over for a minute, then smiled. "Sorry. I cant. Maybe some other time, I'll ride with you."
Inuyasha nodded. He stepped closer to her. "Want me to walk you home, then?"
Kagome chuckled. "No, I'll be fine. Honest." She said, holding her hand to her heart.
Inuyasha chuckled. "If you say so, I guess I'll see you later then, huh?"
Kagome smiled. "Do I really have a choice?"
Inuyasha smirked. "Nope."
Kagome smiled weakly. "I really have to go. Goodbye."
Inuyasha opened his mouth to say goodbye, but was cut off when Kagome lightly brushed her lips against his.
Inuyasha was about to wrap his arms around her, but she pulled away quick. Inuyasha stared into her big brown eyes for a minute and even studied her face a little. Her lips were slightly parted, her cheeks were a very faint red. Her eyes almost had a cloudy look to them, and something else he couldn't identify at the moment.
Kagome studied Inuyasha as well. His face still held a somewhat calm, but surprised look to it. But, his eyes... In those amber orbs, there was nothing other than confusion. Maybe even a little wonderment.
Kagome stepped back, her boot heel making a loud click on the empty sidewalk.
"See you on Monday." She said, before turning around and running down the sidewalk.
Inuyasha watched her until he saw her turn the corner. What was that? He had never seen such a vulnerable looking side of her. Not too mention, so quiet, or sweet. She was usually sarcastic, sarcastically flirty, flirty, or a general smart-ass goth. She had been so different just now. Too different.
Inuyasha turned around the opposite way. Back towards the club. He sighed, as he entered again.
Hope you're alright, Kagome.
