Confession Cam:
Kagome- "When you go to see a concert you come to see the peformers. You make signs for the performers. You yell and shout the performers' names. Do you catch my drift you come to a concert to see the performers NOT their boyfriends!"

Kagome looked out into the crowd after finishing up the song and instead of getting the usual feeling a pride and happiness she gritted her teeth and tightened her grip around the mike until her knuckles turned white. Usually Kagome would see devoted fans with their 'Kick Ass' t-shirts and madly waving their signs of appreciation. Today there weren't just signs for the band but also their boyfriends. Specifcally Inuyasha.
They had only been in Ohio for three days and already photos of the group eating, shopping, at signings, and someone had sent in a picture of the assault on McDonalds were on the covers of magazines. Theyre were plenty of pictures of the guys and now plenty of signs for them too.
'Your Boyfriends are HOT!' one said with falmes starting a the bottom of the page then engulfing half of the words.
THen there was one of those one letter per poster thing going on in the middle section that said 'I-N-U-Y-A-S-H-A-!' in red bold graffiti lettering.
Another said, 'Look out! We're stealing Inuyasha!" that one ticked Kagome off a bit but no where near as much as the next on ethought. No, that one pissed her off.
'Inuyasha- my future husband!!!' The girl was in the first row and on the poter was a huge picture that had Kagome riding on Inuyasha's back during one of the extremely long shopping treips. Only Kagome's face had been cut off and the gril''s replaces it. That sent Kaogme's blood boiling with rage and the mood ring she never took off turned green.(PISSED! for those of you who forgot)
Not only was the girl flaurnting her affection at her concert but she was "riding" on the back of her fiancee smiling like an idiot. Of course the word still had yet to be realeased that the two were engaged but that ddn't take away from the fact that he was hers.
The reason Kagome hasn't told the press yet about her engagement to Inuyasha was that she didn't want more attention on her then they were already getting. At first Inuyasha wasn't happy about the idea of her taking her engagement ring off when they went out, but finally agreed to not wanting to have to fight off a even more press. Even if he wasn't the star Midoriko had her issues with them cursing out the press.
'Deep breaths, clear mind, don't curse them out.' Kagome silently repeated the words of calming Midoriko had inputted into their minds when dealing with situations like these. Kagome closed her eyes and sucked in a deep breath before opening them up again and putting on a smile trying to ignore the few signs made out to Inuyasha. He proposed to me. With that final thought Kagome smiled a real smile before speaking into the mike.
"How's everyone tonight?"
The crowd yelled loudly in resonse.
"Good well we're going to slow it down just a bit for those who are all in love-"
"I love Inuyasha!!!!"
Kagome's eye twitched just barely at the girl who sat in the front row's comment. 'Breathe, clear mind, don't curse her out.' Kagome reapeated again before quickly continuing. "...with that special person."
There were more shouts before Sango started them off and Kagome began to sing.
Can you hear me? Does anyone around me
Feel the way that I feel now?
Cause from the window where I sometimes cry
I just want to see Your face tonight
And I'm willing to lose everything I am
Kagome's voice lowered and got softer as she began the chorus with some of the audience singing along with her.
Cause I need you more than ever
I need Your help to find where I've been going wrong so far
Kagome wrote the song during one of her depression stages. Inuyasha threw his arm over her shoulder in a protective way gaurding her from all the pain she felt and all the imperfections she saw with herself. When she was with him her tough exterior, her scars, her short temper, all of that faded away and to him she was perfect. There was nothing wrong and it was all okay with Inuyasha. She wasn't alone fighting off her problems by herself.
Take me under Your wing tonight
Make me so perfect in Your eyes
Hold on cause it will be alright
You're not alone.
When You're near me, I feel like I just found me
In the traces of the girl from yesterday
But in a world that is so black and white
I will take the steps to change my life
And I won't be coming back to here again
I need Your loving hand to guide me
Through the maze of all the things inside me
Then I'll know that I'm alright
When Inuyasha was near Kagome felt the younger self she left behind when her dad died. It took a lot of small steps for Kagome to actually get a move on with her life and it was actually Inuyasha's idea for Kagome and her talented friends to start a band. She had promised herself she had seen the last of her depression stage last year and with Inuyasha with her she was pretty sure she could deep that promise.
The more of the vast audience began singing along and some just kept shouting their support. The girl in the front finally showed some support for the band and began to sing along.
Cause I need You more than ever
I need Your help to find where I'll be going wrong so far
Take me under Your wing tonight
Make me so perfect in Your eyes
Hold on cause it will be alright
You're not along anymore
Please help me get from worse to better
Before these tears soak through this lonely sweater
And let me know that I'm alright
I still have one strike of this match left
And I'm holding on to my last breath
And its getting a little dark around to see here
Kagome sang softer with only the sound of Sango's guitar playing along with her in the beginning before Ayame joined in playing a few notes.
Take me under Your wing tonight
Make me so perfect in your eyes
Hold on cause it will be alright
You're not alone
The band started up again full force and Kagome belted out the lyrics with all her heart.
Take me under Your wing tonight
Make me so perfect in your eyes
Hold on it will be alright
You're not alone
And You'll be here forever, forever You'll stay
And You promised to love me, You'll love me always
You'll love me for always, You'll love me for always
Always
Her mood ring said 'Forever' and her engagement ring said 'Mine'. Inuyasha was always and forever going to stay by her side so there was no point in getting all worked up about some crazy fan girl who didn't even really know Inuyasha. No matter how famous Inuyasha's song writing became he was her's and she was his forever. It was engraved in her ring.
The stadium erupted into an ear splitting applause and Kagome and the band made a show of taking multiple bows for the supporting fans before screaming goodnight and running off the stage as the stadium slowly began to empty.
As Kagome disappeared backstage a pair of arms wrapped around her waist pulling her back against their hard body letting a light 'oof' escape her lips. She didn't even have to turn around to know it was Inuyasha restraining her and resting his chin on her shoulder.
"Once again another amazing performances." He whispered setting a light kiss on the corner of her mouth.
"And once again I have to go meet the people with backstage passes." Kagome stated as she slipped from Inuyasha's grasp and turned around so she could face him smiling slightly at his annoyed scowl.
"But Kagome..." Inuyasha whined. He usually didn't want to meet those crazy fans especially the guys who practically drooled over his girlfriend. That was the one and only reason he hung around when it came to Kagome meeting all the fans because he couldn't let anybody get too grabby.
"Sorry Inuyasha but I got to." She set a quick peck on his lips before grabbing his hand and dragging the relunctant hanyou to meet some of her fans with her. She already had her fake smile plastered on her face when she joined the rest of the band signing autographs and taking pictures for the press and fans.
"Oh my god!!!!!!!!!" Kagome cringed a bit at the sound of an overhyper fan and turned in the person's direction expecting a bonecrushing hug but instead the fan ran right past her and enveloped Inuyasha with her arms thrown around his neck. Kagome's jaw hit the floor when she noticed the girl was the same one that was in the front row.
"Ummm....do I know you?" Inuyasha struggled to ask while trying to pry the girl off of him shooting wary looks at the steaming Kagome who was trying hard to repeat her calming words.
"No but you will." The straight hair brunette perked up smililing brightly up at Inuyasha and releasing her grip and stepping back. "Hi, I'm Misty and I've followed Kick Ass forever but I was really interested in you and then I heard you are going to be a songwriter from the McDonalds follow up article and I can't wait to hear some of your songs." the girl gushed staring starry eyed at Inuyasha.
"Hi," Kagome interupted blocking Inuyasha from the range of being attacked by another hug. "I'm Kagome and its nice to me you." Kagome stated with a fake smile.
Misty's eyes dimmed and she gave and unsatisfied smile to Kagome, "Yeah nice to meet you too. Love the music. Anyways Inuyasha, I also read online one of your songs is called The Great Escape. Do you think you can sing it for me?" Misty batted her eyes coquettishly over Kagome's shoulder at Inuyasha who gave an uneasy smile.
"Actually," Kagome cut the girls line of view again. "Inuyasha was about to head back to the hotel but another t-."
"Ummm...I believe Inuyasha is old enough to answer for himself." Misty spat sending Kagome a death glare.
"What?" Kagome gasped out in disbeleif looking back at Inuyasha as if to ask if the girl had really just said that to her. "Look I don't know who you think you are but-"
"But I really came to see my future husband." Misty spat again before winking at Inuyasha and once again turning her bitchiness back on Kagome.
"I don't think he can be your husband if he's already e-" Inuyasha lightly jabbed Kagome in time before she blurted out the secret. "extremely happy with his GIRLFRIEND!!" Kagome shouted as the band and some of fans and press turned their attention to Kagome and Misty and Kagome tried the calming words again.
'Deep breaths...'
"There are such things as break-ups."
'The persistent bitch.'
"I'm sorry but I'm afraid I'm going to have to call for security." Kagome said calmly looking at the girl who was scowling at her.
"I'm sorry but I really don't care for you at the moment or your security gaurds."
Kagome's eye began to twitch a bit.
'Clear mind from wanting to knock her down......'
"Please will you just leave." Kagome asked struggling to keep sincerity in her voice. Misty finally had some understanding in her eyes and Kagome let her stance in front of Inuyasha relax and smiled a bit at Misty.
"I'll leave but first...." Misty didn't finish her sentence as she swiftly pushed past Kagome and set a peck on Inuyasha's lips.
'Don't....'

"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" Kagome yelled in pure anger as she moved the completely freaked out Inuyasha out of the way so she now stood in front of Misty towering over her in rage. "I advice you too take you bitchy ass from back here before I mop the floor with you! You come to a concert for the performers not so your slutty whore ass can hook up with their boyfriends! I swear if I so much as catch a glimpse of your damn face I'll knock you all the way to Kyoto! Hell, I thought we got rid of all th Kikyo's already but nooo your shitty ass had to come in and fuck my boyfriend with just you eyes!" Kagome didn't even realize the girl was starting to cower or the press snapping pictures or the rest of the band trying to get her to stop as she unleashed her can of whoop ass on Misty. "Now leave or I won't even bother to get security and I"ll THROW YOU OUT ON YOUR HEAD MYSELF!!!" Kagome finally finished glaring hard at Misty.
Misty didn't hesitate to scurry out and then Kagome relaxed a bit before turning to the faces of her band.
"Midoriko is going to kill you." Rin bluntly stated.
Realization finally hit Kagome and she hit herself in the head. "Shit."

(8 in the morning the next day)
Kagome stretched tiredly and stumbled out of bed from beside Inuyasha to answer the door to whoever was banging on it so early in the morning. The band didn't get back to the holtel until around 1:30 in the morning and she and Inuyasha had immediately passed out on their bed but still six and a half hours was not enought sleep for Kagome. Part of Kagome's mind was telling her to knock the person who dared to wake her up flat on their back.
Kagome finally reached the door and straigtened her shorts and tank top before swinging open the door to only be met with a newspaper being shoved in her face. She backed up a bit so she could read the headline.
'ANGER MANGEMENT?' below the headline was a picture of Kagome leaning over the cowering Misty with extremely narrowed eyebrows and her eyes held an emotion as if she wanted to kill. She skimmed over the article to see quotes and a lot of blanked out spaces.
"What do you think of this?"
Kagome cringed at sound of the person's voice the emitted from behind the newspaper. The paper slowly lowered to reveal a Midoriko who looked even angrier than Kagome did in the picture.
"Midoriko....heh heh heh.... well you see..."
"KAGOME!!!!"

End of chapter 3 and I don't really have much to say except that this probably wouldn't happen in real life. I know a smack on the ass would but still I wanted more amusement so Misty stole a kiss and Kagome's got pissed. Reveiw!!!!!!!!!!!!!
