Chapter Eleven: Skips

Sango brushed her hair out and pulled a necklace around her neck. She put on her dark blue eyeshadow lightly and then some soft tone lipstick. She grabbed her small handbag and walked out of her room. By now it was 7:05 p.m.. She was worried he would already be there but mostly like not, guy's were always late weren't they? Sango went downstairs to see Kagome waiting for her. She smiled at her friend and then pushed her towards the living room. Sango turned to glare at her but continued in. There Miroku was standing. He was wearing black pants, a dark blue collared shirt, and black shoes. He stood up from the couch and smiled at her. He held out a dozen white lilies and gave them to her. Sango blushed and thanked him.

"Well don't stay out too late you two," Kagome jokingly warned.

"Yes ma'am," Miroku said.

"Alright, have a good time."

Sango walked outside with Miroku still bushing slightly. He opened the door of his car for her and waited until she got in. He then shut it softly and walked around to the driver's seat. Miroku turned on the car and soon they were driving down the street. Miroku still hadn't mentioned anything about when she had rushed out of the library or about her lip. She was relieved though. Neither of those were things she wanted to talk about. Sango played with the bracelet on her wrist while gazing out the window in the quietness.

"You look beautiful tonight," Miroku said.

"Thank you," Sango said blushing again.

"Your welcome," Miroku smiled.

"So where are we going?" Sango asked.

"I'm not telling."

"Again with the secret's?" Sango laughed.

"Yep, you should know me by now."

Miroku looked over at her and smiled. He couldn't tell if she was completely happy right now or if she had thought's of what happened during lunch still in her head. He knew someone had done something to her, he could tell by the cut on her lip. But she hadn't wanted to tell him about it so he couldn't really force her to. He was worried about her never the less. She seemed fine but she could just be putting on a pretty face to hide what she really felt. Either way, Miroku wanted to make sure that she had a good time and enjoyed herself tonight.

Twenty minutes later, Miroku parked out in front of a fancy looking restraunt. Sango got out of the car and stared at it, already amazed. Miroku called to her and the two walked in. Sango was surprised that he had a reservation. They were led to a table in the back that was beautifully decorated. A jazz bad was playing on stage and people were dancing together on a dance floor in front of their performance. A waitor walked over to Sango and Miroku with two menus for them. Sango felt like he was doing too much for her. She had been comfortable with the cafe anyway, he didn' t have to do this for her.

"This is a really nice place," Sango said.

"Yeah it is. One of my favorite restraunts in Tokyo."

"I can see why," Sango replied still admiring it.

"I really wasn't sure whether or not you would like it here," Miroku said relieved.

"How could I not like this restraunt? Its great."

"Yeah, well I have a question," Miroku hesitated.

"What is it?" Sango asked.

"Why did you run off during lunch when you were in the library?"

"Oh...I had forgotten something I had to do," Sango said.

'Such a bad liar,' Sango thought.

"Really? Why was your lip bleeding? Did someone do that to you?"

"I...don't worry about it, everything's okay now."

"Sango-"

"Miroku, please, lets just talk about it later."

"Alright...later."

Kagome walked outside with a black hoodie on and blue jeans. She wondered how Sango and Miroku's date was going. Hopefully good but she knew that was probably guarunteed. She had really felt like calling Inuyasha but hadn't bothered to that. He was probably busy anyway. Kagome kicked around a rock or two boredly and sighed. She really wanted to see Inuyasha though. It couldn't hurt to call him could it? She wasn't doing anything. Probably because she was waiting for him to call first. Kagome faced her house and placed her hands in her pockets. She finally headed to her front door and walked inside. Inuyasha had walked around the corner as she closed the door. He thought she would have been hanging around outside like she usually did at this time. He sighed heavily and began to walk away when he saw the light in her room turn on. He saw her shadow hover in front of the window before it disappeared. Inuyasha thought for a moment and ran towards her house. He stood below her window and picked up a rock. He tossed it around in his hand and then threw it at her window. He waited and then threw another one. Her window opened and she was about to yell when she saw who it was. Her face lightened up and she turned and walked away quickly. A few seconds later she came out of the front door.

"What are you doing here?" Kagome asked.

"I was in the neighborhood," Inuyasha shrugged.

"Oh really?" Kagome said crossing her arms, holding back her laughter.

"Okay fine I wanted to see you."

"Yeah?" Kagome asked a little surprised.

"Yeah but I can see I'm not wanted so-"

"No, I'm just kidding. I'm glad you came. You wanna come inside?" Kagome asked.

"Nah, I probably should be going..."

"Oh, well, okay," Kagome said disappointed.

She turned and began to walk back to the front door. She thought he had at least maybe wanted to do something, like watch a movie. Anything. All of a sudden she felt Inuyasha take her hand and pull her around to him. She stared up at him again surprised. His expression was content and she could see something loveable in those eyes of his. He smiled at her and the two didn't really move for an hour it felt like.

"So, you do wanna come inside?" Kagome smiled.

"Well...only on one condition."

"What's that? No, I'm not making any ramen either."

"Not that," Inuyasha laughed.

"What is it then?"

"Close your eyes.
"What? Inuyasha-"

"Just close your eyes," Inuyasha interrupted.

Kagome finally did and waited. What was he going to do? Inuyasha brushed her hair away from her face and then place his hands on her lower cheeks before softly kissing her on the lips. How long had he wanted to do that? Forever? It felt like forever. Finally he had decided to do it. Inuyasha pulled away and turned to start walking down the street. Kagome stared wide-eyed after him. Did he just kiss her? He turned the corner without looking back and disappeared from sight. Kagome finally found her sense and headed back up to her room. She shut the door behind her and stood at the door. She smiled whle blushing and sat down on her bed feeling quite dazed.

Oh yeah, that was definately worth the wait right? I had thought about the InuxKag fans so I decided to add some juicy stuff for them. So please read and review. 5 or 6 would be great.
