The girls laughed as they entered MW, as soon as they did Miroku came running up,

"Just the woman I wanted to see" He said grabbing Sango's arm, Kagome looked at her friend "Your invited" then she walked away, leaving the two alone for a moment.

"What's up Kagome" Inuyasha said, sitting in a chair that was backwards.

"Nothing much" She stated,

"Well, anything fun happen today" He asked her as Kikyo came to sit,

"Well yes, your bother came by today to hand me a invite"

Both Inuyasha and Kikyo looked at Kagome, she looked back at them, "What? don't tell me your own brother didn't invite you!"

"YES HE INVITED ME STUPID!" Inuyasha snapped back,

"But not in person" Kikyos cold cool voice spoke, Kagome looked at her,

"Well, I mean, I do work for him, I'm sure he was, just in the building?"

"Yeah" Inuyasha huffed, the conversation ended there, Miroku and Sango came and sat,

"Waiter" Miroku spoke, hand in air,

Hojo, came running "Yes sir?"

"The ladies would like to eat if you please"

The 'ladies' looked at Miroku odd,

"What with the odd speaking Miroku?" Kagome asked,

He laughed and then stopped.

Hojo gave the girls a menu "Let me know when your ready"

Of course Kikyo handed hers back "Ill have red wine only"

"Uh, yes, right away" Hojo was a bit scared of Kikyo.

Kagome and Sango ordered food, and had matching wine to go with it, they all drank and laughed, and talked about the up coming party.

"So, who you taken Kagooomaaaa" Inuyasha said, Kami how he aggravated her,

"Who says I have to take someone?" Kagome spoke,

"Well, it would be rather dull coming to a Christmas party without someone, don't you think Kagome?" Miroku asked, it was then that Kagome looked at her friends, Miroku with his arm draped over Sango's chair, Inuyasha sitting close to Kikyo, they were couples, and couples like to do couples things, who likes a third wheel? Kagome sighed,

"Yeah, your right, I may not even come, I have so much to do"

"You have to come Kagome" Sango spoke "Who knows, maybe you will meet someone here?"

Everyone looked at her "Who the heck she gunna meet that's not already here Sango" Inuyasha snapped,

"Well, maybe Sesshomaru will invite some of his high dollar men friends, people?" Friends, he didn't have friends.

"No, he is just doing this to keep his MW fans happy, that's it, hell I bet he wont even show up"

Kagome sighed, "Well I'm headed out, Sango, I will see you later"

"Your ready to leave, but who will walk you home?" Sango asked, consern on her face,

Kagome smiled "Sango" She teased "Were not in school, I'm a grown woman, plus I only live a few streets away"

"Yeah but its night!" It was odd coming from Sango, Sango was not afraid of anything,

"Ill call you on my way, will that make you feel better?"

Sango thought for a moment,

"We can walk you home Kagome" Miroku offered,

"No, no, yall stay, Ill call you Sango"

"Ok, if your sure"

"I'm sure, I really need to get home, bye guys"

With the Kagome left out into the cold weather by herself.

Kagome walked out into the snow, her breath showing, she looked at the people walking by, it was late so there were not many, but one thing she noticed about them all, is, unlike her, they were not walking home, alone.
