A New Attitude…
Kagome's Pov
Sango didn't let go of my arm until we arrived at the car, by then she was laughing hysterically.
"Did you see his face when I grabbed you? He looked like he was going to go berserk! And I'm such a great actress I should win an Oscar, I mean seriously!" She jumped up and down outside of the car.
"Yeah... right…" I responded getting into the passenger side. Sango just stared at me from outside.
"What are you doing?" I asked, looking out around the windows afraid that Inuyasha and Miroku would come out and see us still here.
"What are you doing?" She asked eyeing me quizzically.
"Heh?"
"This is your car, you have the keys." She eyed me suspiciously.
"I-I knew that, I wanted you to drive you to drive because um… my feet hurt." I lied quickly and held the keys up to her.
"Oh hell…"Sango groaned after eyeing me some more.
"What?" I asked trying to seem annoyed by shoving the keys at her. She took them and got into the drivers seat.
"You noticed how damn good he looked in that suit didn't you?"
"Maybe, but what does that have to do with-" I was cut off as she hit me with her purse. I turned to her with an incredulous look. "Okay, if you can't handle that thing responsibly, I'm going to take it!" I said, snathcing the purse out of her hands, rubbing the side of my head. It was one, thing to whack Miroku, but me?
"Oh, you said little dork, this is definitely going to put a cog in the machine." She muttered, shaking her head.
"What?" I was beginning to think her water, wasn't water after all.
She started the car and drove out of the club's parking lot and we started for home.
"The absent mindness, the stuttering the lying. You're falling for him again.
"No I'm not…"
"Is that so?' Sango looked me dead in the eye.
"Don't put yourself through this again Kagome."
"Through what?" I asked
"The pain he causes you. Don't be his toy. Especially with the way he was looking at you tonight, don't set yourself up like that, you know him."
I sat there for a moment and thought about what Sango said. As I stared out at the bright neon lights of Japan's nightlife, I wondered if maybe we should abort this mission ASAP.
3 years ago… (Before graduation)
"Kagome!"
The young Kagome turned around, her frizzy mane, whipping around. What she saw, made her stumble a little. Inuyasha was jogging up to her, waving his arm to get her attention. She was just walking down the stairs of her home, about to check the mailbox. Where did he come from?
"I-Inuyasha? How did you find my house?
"You left this in the hallway yesterday," He handed her a blue folder."Had your address in it so…"
"Oh, thank you I've really been looking all over for this." She smiled revealing a row of pearly white teeth.
"Got your braces off huh?" he asked his smile a bit too sweet.
"Y-yeah, finally, y'know?"She kept her smile on. She twiddled her thumbs nervously. She felt her mouth get dry all over again.
"So I'll see you around?"
Kagome's heart begins to pound "Y-yeah."
Did that mean he wanted to see her again? She internally kicked herself for that idea. The Pope would sooner hula hoop while doing The Macarena. Inuyasha started to walk off and Kagome turns to go home when he stops.
"Hey Kagome?"
She turned back and walked back to the edge of the stairs, hearing him say her name like that nearly caused her to have a stroke.
"Yeah?"
He walked back up to her and kissed her on the cheek, he flashed her a smile before turning to walk off. Kagome dropped her folder on the ground. Her eyes wide with shock.
"I think somebody spiked my juice with something, this has to be a drug trip." She muttered to herself as her hand touched where his lips were. She turned, walking back into her home in a trance.
The Present
I looked back to Sango, all my earlier fire returned. That devious little rat, had it coming to him. This time, I won't get swept up in sweet smiles and forlorn gazes. Fuhh that!
"Don't worry when I'm done with him this G.I Joe will be no more than a broken Barbie."I grinned at her wickedly.
"That's my girl." Sango smirked as we sped off for home.
