Chapter 7- A Date...Sort Of

Sango and Kagome were in the green Honda (AN: my moms car lol) driving down the street. Kagome had an annoying smile on her face, and it was really giving Sango the creeps. Kagome never acted like that after she went shopping. Usually she cursed herself for spending so much of her mothers money. Yet this time Kagome was just different.

"Hey Kags what up with the kool-aid smile?"

A day like this is every girls dream....

Sango's sweat dropped as she watched her friend hug herself with that annoyingly creepy smile on her face.

"KAGOME!!!"

"Huh..." Kagome turned and looked at her friend.

"What's up with you? You're usually yelling at yourself for spending so much money by now."

"That's because...I didn't pay for this stuff." Kagome smirked as she said this.

Sango's eyes widened. "Please finish your statement before I get the wrong idea."

Kagome giggled, she knew what Sango was thinking. "Inuyasha purchased all of this." Kagome simply said in a soft shy voice.

Sango burst out laughing, her head hit the steering wheel and the horn began to honk.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Kagome screamed at the top of her lungs.

The car began to swerve, because Sango wasn't watching the rode. Sango jerked up, and took over the wheel again.

"Sango what is wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry, but that was just to good to be true." Sango laughed hysterically.

"What do you mean?" Kagome said.

"Inuyasha doesn't even work. Were would he get the money to buy all this, come on. You have 5 bags from Hollister, 3 from Abercrombie, 3 bags from Aeropostale, and 2 from American Eagle."

"How do you know he doesn't work?" Kagome asked.

"Um...hello, my boyfriend is his best friend." Sango said as if it were obvious.

"Well, he did buy it. I swear."

Sango raised an eyebrow.

"You're funny Kagome, that's why I love you oh so much."

Kagome didn't understand why Sango wouldn't believe her but she didn't feel like playing 21 questions, so she just said.

"You're right Sango... I bought all this, and boy was I stupid." Kagome said as she began to argue with herself. (AN: sry to make Kagome seem like she has mental issues...lol)

"That's more like you." Sango simply said as they pulled up in front of Kagome's house.

"What're we doing here?" Kagome asked with a puzzled look on her face,

"Get your stuff for Monday."

Oh yea that's right....

Kagome got out the car and looked up and down the block for her stepfathers car. She didn't see it, however she didn't want to take her chances by walking in the front door. She climbed up the tree that leads to her bedroom window. She peered in her room and saw no signs of 'daddy dearest', so she opened the window and climbed in. As quickly as possible she grabbed her school stuff, cheerleading gear and laptop. Kagome had no intentions on coming home until after Christmas, she didn't want to be in a house alone with him for a whole two weeks. As she finished packing the things she wanted she quietly climbed back out the window, and down the tree. She hopped back into Sango's car and they drove off in the direction of Sango's house.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha walked into his front door and jumped on the couch, he didn't have anything to do. He was so bored. Inuyasha turned on his 62" inch Visio television (AN: sexy TV...go check out it) and channel surfed.

God...for a TV with over 5000 channels...there is nothing on...

Inuyasha began to grow bored, and lonely. The last thing he wanted was to be in his house with nothing to do. Part of him wanted to go back to the mall and talk to girls, but the other part of him wanted to talk to one particular girl. (AN: wonder who...lol)

Inuyasha pulled out his cell phone and dialed Miroku's number.

Maybe I can get on his nerves for a while...

Miroku answer on the first ring.

"Hello?"

"I'm bored..."

"Sounds like a personal issue..."

"Come entertain me." Inuyasha said like it was nothing.

"Do I look like your personal form of entertainment?"

"Do you want the honest answer?"

"Not really..."

"Alright then...so..."

"What???" Miroku said with sudden confusion.

"What did you do to Sango today?"

"Oh, yeah. Just play 21 questions why don't we." Miroku said with an irritation.

"Why not..."

Miroku sighed.

"She saw Natalia hugging me..."(AN: an ex of Miroku she's just a minor character...she wont be mentioned much)

"Whoa, sucks to be you doesn't it."

Miroku began to get upset.

"You see, this is why I don't talk to you! Don't you ever know when to be serious?"Miroku yelled.

Inuyasha was taken aback; he wasn't expecting a response like that.

"Hey, my fault man."

"It's what ever...She's mad and they'res nothing I can do about it."

"Maybe Kagome can talk to her for you, I'm sure she wont mind. Ask her."

"No! I'm tired of this. Sango tries to run my life. Every time I want to live a little, she has to get jealous and ruin it."

"C'mon...you know you don't mean that."

"I do, I'm done with Sango. She didn't even give me time to explain."

"Dude...if I saw my boyfriend hugging his ex, I think I would be upset to."

"Okay...you like boys now?"

Inuyasha took a brief notation on what it is he just said...

"Holy Crap!!! I mean girlfriend!!!"

"That's what I hoped you meant."

"Anyway...are you trying to say you're breaking up with Sango?"

"No, what I'm saying is if she wants me...she's going to work for it."

"So..."

Inuyasha didn't know what to say. He didn't want to make Sango seem in the wrong by telling Miroku what he wanted to hear, but at the same time he didn't want Miroku to think he was against him. He also knew this wouldn't last long, He and Sango broke up like 3 times a week. So he tried to change the subject, but Miroku beat him to it.

"So what's up with you and Kagome?"

"Huh...Uh...Nothing." Inuyasha said a little to quickly.

"Yeah what ever..."

"What do you mean what ever?"

"You like Kagome." Miroku said slyly.

"Do not!" Inuyasha countered like a little kid.

In truth Inuyasha DID like Kagome, and he liked her a lot. But he would never lower his pride that much to tell Miroku that.

"What ever you say puppy boy...but look I'm going to get off this phone, I've got 1 bar."

"Alright see ya man."

"Peace."

Inuyasha furrowed his eyebrows...'peace?'

Inuyasha shook his head, and walked into his bedroom and pulled out his Mac Book. He thought back to earlier today with Kagome and the sidekick. He was making it his life's goal to woo Kagome on Christmas. He looked on T-mobiles website and brows through the many different phones until he found it.

Ah Hah...

Inuyasha sent Sango a text message and asked...

What are Kagome's two favorite colors???

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sango and Kagome were almost back at Sango's house and her cell phone went off. Since Sango didn't want to threaten her of Kagome life again, she asked Kagome to check on her cell. Kagome did as she was asked, and flipped open Sango's razor.

"It's a text message from Inuyasha..." Kagome said in a soft voice.

"What does it say?" Sango asked not removing her eyes from the road.

What...Kagome thought.

"He asked, what are my favorite color's..." Kagome raised an eyebrow. She wanted to know what Inuyasha was up to.

"You can answer that I'm sure." Sango smiled.

"Uh...yea..." Kagome said as she began to text back Inuyasha.

Hey Yasha...Its Kagome...why do you want to know my colors???

----

Inuyasha's eyes widened he didn't expect Kagome to text him back. He surely wasn't going to tell Kagome why he wanted to know, so he just acted as if she didn't ask and began a normal text conversation.

Oh hey Kagome what u doin'

----

Kagome smiled at Inuyasha 'attempt' to change the subject. She wasn't that dumb, but she decided to play like she didn't notice.

{tlkin 2 u}

[lol...i guess u r]

{so...}

[wutz up]

{wuts up with the wuts up...lol}

[wutz the wutz up?]

{Wuts up with me, u...nd ur dad...lol}

[whoa girl, you lost me at dad lmbo]

{omg...ur gross}

[im not gross...ima guy]

{true...}

Kagome and Inuyasha would have kept texting, had the phone not been snatched from Kagome's grip.

"Hey!!!" Kagome yelled snapping back to reality.

"Hey..." Sango said seductively with a small smirk on her face.

"I was using that..." Kagome said as if it was her phone.

"So!" Sango smiled

"Sango you can be such a curmudgeon sometimes." Kagome said in a college professor type tone. She knew Sango didn't know what that means.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AN: I bet some of you don't know what it means either...lol...it means, "mean, nasty, person"...hahaha u learned something today...JK JK...back 2 the story ^_^ ily
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sango furrowed her brows, she hated when Kagome used big words, and she knew Kagome had a very large vocabulary. However she hated when she used it against her.

"What ever." Sango simply said, she'd have to look that up later.

Kagome burst out laughing, she couldn't contain herself. The look on Sango's face was too funny. Sango squinted her eyes. Kagome was irritating her. She stopped the car and unlocked the door.

"Get out." Sango calmly said.

"Awww I'm sorry Sango. Don't kick me out, I'll be good."

"I'm more then sure that you wont, however that's not why I want you to get out."

Kagome looked at Sango confused.

"Then what is it???" Kagome asked.

"We're home." Was Sango's solid answer?

Kagome turned her head and sweat dropped. "I knew that...I was just joking...haha" She tried to play it off.

"Yea sure, now get your ten thousand bags and let yourself in."

"You're not coming?" Kagome asked concerned, Sango still never told her what happened at the mall with Miroku but she had an idea.

"No, I'll be back in about an hour or so..."

Oh yea...Miroku you're in trouble...

"Okay!" Kagome said cheerfully as she got all her stuff out Sango's mom's car. It took about 3 trips but she managed to get it all into Sango's room.

Kagome kicked off her shoes, and took off her clothes. She reached into one of her many shopping bags, and pulled out a pair of pink mini shorts that said "his shxt" on the butt. Along with a black beater tank top, and pretty blue and white underwear set. Kagome grabbed her bath towel and wrapped it around her naked body. She grabbed the house phone in Sango's bedroom and made her way to the bathroom.

Kagome turned on the water on and filled the bathtub all the way up, adding bubble sap and bath oil beads to the water. In one swift movement Kagome drops her towel and enters the tub. The water was boiling...just the way she likes it. She soaked in the hot water for about a half hour, as she took a brief catnap. Upon waking up the phone rang. Kagome reached over the tub and grabbed the cordless she brought in the bathroom with her.

"Hello?" she greeted.

"Oh Kagome, how are you dear?" An older woman voice replied on the other end of the phone.

"Hey Auntie Yui!" Kagome said cheerfully.

Kagome was like family to Sango's mother, she had told her long ago to think of her as an Aunt.

"Where's Sango?"

"She stepped out, you could try her cell phone..."

"I did its off." Ms. Yui said sternly.

"Is there anything I can do?" Kagome asked.

"Yes Hun, could you tell her my flight was delayed and its possible...I might not be home for the holiday." The woman said sadly.

"Oh no, why?" Kagome knew Sango hated when her mom couldn't be home for important days. This happened last Christmas too, Ms. Yui had an emergency business trip that went right through Christmas. Sango was shaken up by it for weeks. But as time went on Sango started growing accustomed to her mother not being home for important days.

"A terrible snow blizzard is coming, the planes can't fly."

"That's terrible."

"I know, I left her a message explaining it to her, but she might see you before she checks her messages."

"I'll tell her I promise."

"You really are a sweet heart Kagome."

Kagome began to blush; Thank god she can't see it.

"Really its nothing!"

"Well thanks again, and also let Sango know she's aloud a 500 dollar shopping spree as her gift."

"I will."

"Also you may have a 300 dollar spree as well Kagome."

Kagome's eyes widened in shock.

"Oh no.i couldn't..."

"None sense! You're family Kagome!"

"Thank you Auntie."

"You're very welcome, and Merry Christmas!"

Sango's mother hung up.

First Inuyasha...now Auntie Yui...

Kagome lay back in the tub. Then looked back at the phone.

Now that I think about it...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AN: okay...I have half a mind to leave it right here...HOWEVER I made a promise for an EXTRA long chapter so I'm going to continue...I'm big on my word so.... HERE YOU GO!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome picked up the phone and dialed Inuyasha's cell phone number.

*Sigh* Lets try this again...

Ring...

Ring...

Ring...

"Hello?"

Kagome felt her heart beat speed again, and her breathing became heavy...but she fought it.

"Hey." she softly said, as if she didn't want to be heard.

"Who's this?"

"Uh...K-Kagome."

"Oh hey! What's up?"

"Nothing."

"Nobody calls for nothing."

"Yeah I guess you're right."

"So...what's on your mind?"

"Inuyasha..."

"Yea?"

*Sigh* "Never Mind..."

"Okaaaaay? So...what you doin'?"

"Batheing..."

"Huh..."

"I'm taking a bath."

"You call people why you're cleansing yourself?"

"Sometimes."

"Wow...Okay...good to know.?.?"

Kagome chuckled.

Ask him...ask him now...

"So..."

"Yea?"

"What are you doing tomorrow?"

"I didn't have anything planned, why?"

"Oh...do you...uh..."

Kagome began to form a blush that somehow Inuyasha could feel through the phone.

"Sure." Inuyasha said before she could finish.

"Sure what?" Kagome asked confused.

"Do something with you tomorrow...Sure." Inuyasha said as if it were obvious.

"Uh...I was going to ask do you know what happened between Sango and Miroku today..."

Inuyasha sweat dropped. "Haha of course that's what you were going to ask me." Inuyasha tried his best to play off his false accusations.

"However..."

Inuyasha paid close attention to the girl now.

"If this is your way of asking me out then...I accepted."

Inuyasha almost fainted at hearing her say this. But he kept his cool.

"Heh, well then I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

"5 o'clock...can't wait."

"5 it is...Sango's place right?"

"You're correct."

"Alright...see you then."

"Bye!"

The teens hung up, and Kagome gave herself a pat on the back. She could hardly wait herself. Who would have though a small conversation like that would result in. A DATE...sort of.

Inuyasha and Kagome stood outside; it was hot inside the house with all those people. There was an awkward silence, until Kagome spoke up...

"I don't know what to say..."

"Then don't say anything, just be happy."

She smiled

"This is above and beyond!"

"I'm glad you like it."

I don't have anything to give him in return...unless...

Kagome turned to Inuyasha as a light blush appeared across her face.

"Inuyasha..."

He turned and faced her.

"Yeah?"

"I have a gift for you to...but you have to promise me you hate it."

"Kagome if it's from you...I'll like it no matter what."
