Okay, because I've never done one, here is my first Kagome x Sasuke! I actually got this idea when I was watching video's by my fave YouTube guy; blondewolf2. His videos are fucking hilarious and Joey and his friend David (Sasuke and Naruto respectively) do some pretty funny things is costume! I guess it helps that they're both really hot…

Summary: Browsing video's online one night while trying to get idea's for her first convention, she stumbles across a hilarious remake of 'The Ring' by the user 'flameboy'.

Pairing: Kagome Higurashi x Sasuke Uchiha

Disclaimer: I do not claim to have any claim over Naruto, Inuyasha, Hellsing, Ruroni Kenshin, YouTube or the Tokyo International Anime Fair. They belong to their respective creators.

Warning: Sasuke is going to be utterly OOC. Seriously, he's hyper in Naruto proportions.

To: flameboy. Subject: I love you.

Yawning loudly and cracking her back, Kagome settled herself back down into her computer chair. Clicking a link for the next episode of 'Naoto' she grinned as the music filled her ears. Kagome Higurashi was eighteen years old and the biggest anime fan her friends and family had ever met. The walls of her room were decorated with wall scrolls, posters and pictures of her and a few of her friends. Her favourite show was the hit ninja cult, Naoto. (A/N: sarcastic applause for anyone who can tell me what that is.) Naoto focused on the trials of teen ninja Naoto, his two best friends and team members Sora and Shizuna; and sensei Kaishi. Watching aptly as Naoto and Keito went face to face, Kagome sighed. Slowly, Kagome began to get a little bored with it and clicked on a link on the side titled 'Sora: The Ring'.

By the time the three minute video was over, Kagome was glad that she had the house to herself because her laughter would have surely woken all. She left a nice review for the video. "I wonder." She said to herself, clicking on the highlighted user name. "If all of your videos are as funny as this one flameboy."

The video began rolling as Kagome settled herself in. A blond haired boy was sitting in what appeared to be a shopping cart being pushed by flameboy. "Hey I'm Naruto AKA Naoto and you all probably know Sasuke by now." Flameboy grinned widely and waved. "Quite obviously he's Sora."

"Well duh Naoto." Sasuke replied.

"Anyways, we're here at the American supermarket." 'Naoto' grinned. "Quite obviously to raise hell."

The video followed the two of them through the supermarket as they embarrassed themselves and others, did a little shopping and were almost thrown out by the guards.

"Look at you Naoto, you're so drunk!" Sasuke laughed as he pointed the camera on Naruto who was downing a bottle of Dr. Pepper at an alarming speed.

Naruto merely grinned around the bottle. "Yeah but I can't get enough of this stuff!" He took the camera from Sasuke laughing. "Just like you can't get enough of Lays!"

Popping a chip in his mouth Sasuke moaned. "So good!"

The pair laughed and the screen went blank. Kagome merely sat there laughing. She back clicked and began to watch all of his videos.

It was 2AM

XOX

4AM…

There was a very large bottle of aloe water and a half empty bag of rice crackers on the desk, a half empty box of strawberry Pocky on the floor beside the chair and a hysterically laughing Kagome in said chair. Calming herself slightly, she pulled up the box that allowed her to contact 'flameboy'.

Subject: Hilarity

Dear 'Sora'

I have come to the conclusion that you are completely and utterly insane, therefore, I have decided to contact you! Your video's left me in nothing less than a laughing mess in my room. Had my family been home, they would have murdered me for waking them up. I hope this finds you well, and you find the time to mail me back.

All the crazy in the world, mistymaiden

Yawning loudly, Kagome began to shut down her computer. As it shut down, she walked to her closet and pulled out her costume for the Tokyo International Anime Fair. Smiling as she run her fingers over electric blue fabric, she giggled. "Hopefully I'll find my Sora there!"

XOX

Sasuke, Naruto and Sasuke's older brother Itachi all sat in Sasuke's room practicing their skit for the Tokyo Anime Fair. Dressed in a deep red shirt and pants ala Sora, an electric blue jumpsuit as Naoto and a red cloak with black moons like Itsumo; Sasuke, Naruto and Itachi were laughing extremely hard. (A/N: Oh yeah, Itachi's OOC in Naruto proportions too. And I have no talent when it comes to clothing!)

"Idiotic little brother, did you honestly think I'd never find out?" 'Itsumo' said scathingly.

"Leave him be Itsumo, you've cause him enough pain already!" 'Naoto' replied with equal loathing.

'Sora' placed a hand on 'Naoto's' shoulder. "Let me take care of this Naoto." He turned to face his brother. "Itsumo I'm sorry I never told you, but I was scared."

'Itsumo's' glare intensified. "How could you do this to me Sora! You're my brother!"

'Naoto' placed a calming hand on 'Sora's' shoulder. "That's exactly it Itsumo, you're his brother! You should have known that this would happen!"

"He's right big brother, you should have known." 'Sora' said a little sadly.

"So that's it then huh?" 'Itsumo' asked finally. "After everything we've been through it's over?"

"I'm sorry." Was all Sora could say.

'Itsumo' opened his mouth before closing it again. "Where will the insest fans go now?"

"Well, there's always Haruki and Nanami..." 'Naoto' suggested.

'Sora snorted. "Everyone knows that even though they're cute, it would never happen. Face it Naoto, we're going to have to relent."

"Fine, fine!" 'Naoto' yelled, his arms flailing. "We'll let Itsumo into our bed! I swear the things I do for you Sora!"

'Sora' giggled a little girlishly and pecked Naoto on the cheek. "Thank you!"

Itachi collapsed in a fit of laughter. "Okay, without a doubt we're going to have the best skit there."

"Without a shadow of a doubt." Sasuke replied as he sat down at his computer chair. Pulling up his email account, he sighed dramatically and placed a hand to his head. "Alas, it is a foul thing being a YouTube celebrity!"

Naruto snickered. "How many today Sasuke? A hundred?"

Sasuke nodded and deleted all of the alerts. Pulling up his YouTube account, he began reading through them all with Naruto looking over his shoulder. "Wow that one wants to send you her panties!"

"Lemme see!" Itachi yelled, scrambling for the computer. "Damn, mail her back and tell her our address, I'll take the panties!"

"Pervert!" Both Naruto and Sasuke yelled.

Sasuke began to reply to them all, when one stopped him. "Here Naruto look at this one."

"Dude, you have to reply to that one!" Naruto said. "She sound's real funny."

Dear Misty,

Thank you for your note, and your conclusion is correct, I am completely and utterly crazy! I'm glad I could make you laugh, I make myself laugh most of the time too and my family. My brother is an artist, my parents closet chronics and I usually find most of my inspiration comes from them. Hopefully I'll see you at a con soon. Look for the crazed Sora riding on Itsumo's back!

Sasuke

Clicking the send button, Sasuke smiled. "Hey Itachi, are you busy?"

Itachi, who was spinning a coin on the edge of Sasuke's desk looked up. "No why?"

"Because I have a great idea for a new video!" Sasuke replied.

XOX

"Shippo you're going to have to stand still if you don't want to get poked." Kagome said calmly.

The eight year old red head sighed and tried to stand still. "Sorry Kagome, I'm just so excited! I can't believe I get to go as Kenshin!"

Shippo stood on a stool in Kagome's room while she was putting the final touches on his costume. Shippo was Kagome's cousin, and at eight years old, he could quote half of the episodes on Ruroni Kenshin word for word, could speak enough English to find his way around the English speaking countries he went on vacation to and name every single Pokemon and its type. This of course, made Kagome wonder why the kid was failing half of his subjects at school. "I know you're excited Shippo, but there is still three weeks until the convention and unless you want to go dressed as a badly done Kenshin, you'll need to stand still."

Huffing, Shippo stood stock still. "Hey Kagome, I saw these totally awesome Naoto video's on YouTube like a week ago done by some kid called Naruto and his friend Sasuke. He's really funny!"

Kagome giggled as she began pinning the hem of the red hakamas. "I know, I've seen all of Sasuke's videos. Oh! That reminds me, I wonder if he's found the time to mail me back." Putting her pin cushion down, Kagome walked over to the computer and switched it on. While it was loading, she took the hakamas off of Shippo and set them on the bed. "Go and bug Sota while I stitch them up Shippo. I'll call you when I'm done so I can begin styling your wig."

Shippo nodded and raced out of the room.

Turning to her computer, Kagome pulled up her YouTube and gasped. It would seem that flameboy mailed her back!

Sasuke,

I'm going to be at Tokyo Anime Fair this year so hopefully I'll get to meet you there. Look for Naoto and chibi Kenshin, he's eight but is already a big fan of yours!

Kagome

XOX

Carefully pinning the wig into place, Kagome smiled at a job well done. Sitting before her was a chibi Kenshin, in a high that had nothing to do with sugar. It was the high that Kagome associated with only one thing; convention day! She carefully touched up the make up that formed the trademark 'X' scar on Shippo's cheek and began pinning her long black hair into a bun on top of her head before putting on the carefully styled blond wig. As she pinned it in place, she smiled a Shippo. "Will you go and tell Auntie Akira to warm up the car, I just need to put my sandals on and we're good to go."

A feral cry was heard before Shippo darted from the room and down the stairs. Kagome smiled and grabbed her video camera before walking down the stairs.

Akira smiled at her daughter. "You look lovely as you do every year Kagome. Do you have everything?"

Kagome nodded. "Yep! Let's go."

Shippo bounced into the car. "I can't believe it! My first convention and I get to go with you Kagome and oh my gosh it's going to be awesome and do you think we'll get lots of nice things and oh my gosh do you think I'll get my picture taken with some of the other Kenshin characters and can I have ice cream and will there be people doing skits like I saw online and oh my gosh!"

"Kenshin, calm down! We're here and you're hyperventilating!" Kagome said. Before she could finish her sentence, Shippo had bust out of the car. "Hold it!"

Shippo looked at the hand so tightly clamped around his wrist with despair and let out a desperate whine.

"Say goodbye to Auntie Akira and let me put your pass on." Kagome said, giving her mother a nod.

Akira nodded back and looked sternly at her nephew. "You obey Kagome at all times; you don't run away from her for anything. If you need to use the bathroom, ask Kagome to get Kiba to take you."

Shippo nodded enthusiastically. "I will, I will! Can we go now?!"

"Of course, be good and have fun!" Akira said before giving her daughter some extra money. "Just in case."

Kagome thanked her mother before walking off towards a boy dressed traditional black clothing and a white wig. "Ah, Toshiro Hitsugaya, it would seem we meet again."

"Naoto Umehara, it would seem we would." Kiba said. "Ah! I see you bring your apprentice, young Kenshin Himura! Tell me young Kenshin, do you want to waste your life learning under this despicable shinobi, or would you prefer training under me, honorable Captain of the tenth division of Soul Society?"

A few people had gathered to watch the pair as they seemingly faced off.

Shippo looked a t little indecisive for a second. "On the one hand you are a captain and would ultimately bring my power to its fullest."

Kiba smirked.

"But on the other hand, Naoto gives me candy so I'm staying with him!"

"Ha!" Kagome yelled and pointed her finger at Kiba. "Once again you are thwarted in your plans to steal my apprentice! All that is left to do now is enter this convention." Picking up Shippo and throwing him on her back, she smiled at Kiba. "Come on Toshiro, if you beat me I'll buy you that Orihime figurine you've been lusting after."

XOX

Sasuke and Naruto laughed at the pair making their way to the entrance. Itachi grinned. "Well, I'd say this is going to be a wonderful year boys!"

The pair nodded enthusiastically as they made their way to the entrance as Sasuke clicked off his video camera. "That is definitely going on YouTube!"

As the threesome made their way into the convention, Sasuke whipped his video camera out and held it ready.

"Hey look Sora; it's the Naoto from before." Itachi said, pointing to the person trying to restrain chibi Kenshin. "Hot damn it's a chick!"

"What?" Naruto said, spinning his head to the person. "Hot damn, you're right!"

'Naoto's' jacket was undone, probably due to the heat of the place, and the black baby tee that was under it made it obvious of her gender. "I'm going over to say hi." Naruto said as he dashed off.

"Oh this is going to be good." Sasuke said as he whipped open his camera.

"Naoto!" Naruto yelled s he ran toward the girl.

She looked up and grinned as Shippo began to tug at her sleeve. "Kagome, its Naruto! The guy from YouTube!"

"I know Shippo I know." Kagome replied as she opened her arms to the boy. "Naoto! My long lost brother!"

Naruto grinned as the girl played along. He ran toward her, sending hem both hurtling to the ground on impact. "Naoto! My long lost sister! Where have you been all these years?"

"Oh you know, here and there." Kagome replied as she helped them both off the ground. "Have you met my apprentice, Kenshin?"

Naruto smiled at Shippo. "Ah, Kenshin! Such honor!"

Shippo pulled a marker from inside his haori and handed it, along with a piece of paper to Naruto. "Can you sign this please? I'm a real big fan of you videos!"

Signing the piece of paper, Naruto grinned wider. "Always a pleasure to meet a fan."

Shippo began dancing on the spot. "Kagome look it! I got Naruto's autograph!"

"Kagome, Kagome…why does that name sound familiar?" Naruto asked himself. Then it clicked. "Mistymaiden?"

Kagome blushed a little. "Yeah, it's nice to meet you Naruto. I love your videos."

"And I loved the note you sent to Sasuke." Naruto replied.

Kagome laughed. "I love his films! I was up till like four am watching them! I don't remember the last time I've laughed so hard."

"My little brother has that affect on people." Itachi said as he entered the group.

Kagome turned to him with a scowl on her face but laughter in her eyes. "Itsumo, of all the conventions in all the world why did you have to stroll into mine?"

Itachi laughed. "Because my dearest Naoto, you draw me like a moth to a flame."

Shippo jumped on front of her and held his cardboard reverse blade sword up in front of him. "Oh no you don't mister! No one touches my Naoto-sensei!"

Sasuke, face hidden by the camera, laughed. "You hear that Itsumo, it seems you have a rival for the female Naoto's heart!"

"Hey Naoto, we should get going if we want to hit the dealers room before all the good stuff is gone." Kiba said with a grin. "Besides, this is Kenshin's first con and we want to make the experience as memorable as possible."

Kagome nodded in agreement. "It was really nice meeting you all, hopefully I'll be seeing you all again soon."

XOX

Sasuke placed the thirtieth bag into his brother's car at the end of the day and sighed. "Today was definitely a good one. I wonder if tomorrow will be as good."

Itachi nodded. "Probably, tomorrow we present our skit. Hey where's Naruto?" he said, looking around.

"He's over there." Sasuke said, seeing his friend with the female Naoto from earlier. "Wanna go spy?"

Itachi simply gave his younger brother a grin and the two of them took off. They reached them as Naruto was giving her a hug.

"It was really nice to meet you Kagome, and you too Shippo." Naruto said as he released her. "Are you going to be here tomorrow too?"

Kagome nodded. "Yes, definitely. Tomorrow is when all the skits are done and the voice panel is open, so we kinda have to come."

"Why? Are you doing a skit?" He asked as he hugged Shippo.

She shook her head. "No, but Kiba and I have a couple of friends coming in from Osaka that are."

Spotting Sasuke and Itachi, Naruto pressed a piece of paper into Kagome's hands. "Here's my phone number, call me sometime and we'll go do something. See ya Misty!"

"I'll give you a call in the week or something." Kagome replied "Bye Naruto!"

Naruto's grin was more than noticeable as he walked back to where Sasuke and Itachi where. "I really hope she calls, she fun to hang out with and she's a hottie!"

For some extremely unexplained reason, Sasuke felt as though a rock dropped in his stomach. The thought of Naruto spending time with the girl he had held a brief conversation with left a bad taste in his mouth.

XOX

Sitting in his room alone, Sasuke was once again, laughing. He had just finished watching Kagome's video's of the convention. He saw Naruto in a few of the clips from the last day, and a few of Itachi interacting with Naruto. Spying a link for a video titles 'Tale of Two Naoto's' in the related search box, Sasuke clicked on it. The video started and showed Naruto and Kagome wandering through the various booths together laughing. They stopped and looked back as Shippo ran towards them, yelling about something and waving a yellow stuffed lion in their faces. Kagome smiled and said something, but Sasuke couldn't hear because of the background noise. Kiba ran over with a worried look on his face and said something to Kagome. This was when the author of the video ran over to them.

"Hey, would you guys mind doing something for my video?" The director, now identified as a male, asked. "It's my first time here and I want it to be memorable."

Kagome grinned and pulled Naruto aside. Naruto walked back to the boy and Kagome walked off camera. Naruto's hands came up into a familiar sign and he yelled. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Kagome popped up beside him and grinned as Naruto yelled again. "This isn't right! Why are you a girl?! I'm not a damn girl!"

Kagome simply smiled. "You are quite right dear Naoto for I am not a clone. I am your Evil Twin that sporadically pops right now to steal your friends, ruin your life and tap my fingers together diabolically while singing Barbie Girl! Mwahahaha!"

The boy behind the camera laughed heartily and Kagome spoke. "What's your name kid?"

"Uh, Hikaru." He replied.

Sasuke seethed silently as Naruto wrapped an arm around Kagome's shoulder and they both grinned. "Welcome to Anime International Hikaru! We hope you had fun and don't forget to look out for us next year; we'll keep an eye out for you!"

The video stopped rolling and Sasuke sighed. It seemed that he had developed a small crush on the girl he had barely spoken to. The door to his room burst open and a highly frazzled Itachi came in. "What is it now Itachi?"

"Oh my god Sasuke you have to come out with me right now!" Itachi yelled. "Sasori just called and said that we're invited to an all night anime party his cousin is holding at his place!"

"Sweet deal." Sasuke replied, grabbing the phone. "I'll call Naruto."

"No need, Sasori called Deidara already, so knowing Dei, he'll take Naruto with him anyway." Itachi said, grabbing a few sour candies from the bag on Sasuke's desk. "I think we were going to watch Hellsing tonight."

Sasuke put some clothes into an overnight grinning. "Awesome, boy's night then!"

XOX

A bright yellow Ford KA pulled up to a small house blasting some variety of hyperactive pop music, and containing five very hyperactive young men all dressed up like ninja's. The music stopped and the five some hopped out of the car and began to walk up to the house. The eldest opened the door and was instantly accosted by more hyperactive pop music and four more hyperactive people (also dressed up) bounced around doing random hyperactive things.

Welcome to the Akasuna household, where hyperactivity (and random cosplay) is a regular occurrence.

"Deidara!"

Glomp

Ah yes, random glompings were custom here to.

The tall blond grinned and patted the head of the person that was sitting on his stomach. "Hey Kagome! Long time no see, un?"

The name had somehow managed to draw the attention of both Naruto and Sasuke. The girl in question looked up. "Naruto! What are you doing here?"

Naruto grinned as Kagome got up and hugged him. "I'm here with Deidara, he's my big brother."

Kagome's gaze swiveled and landed on Deidara. "Dei why didn't you tell me! You know I wanted to see him again!"

Deidara shrugged. "It didn't cross my mind, un. Anyway wasn't it Sasuke she was swooning over Sasori?"

The red head nodded while frowning. Poor thing was currently having his ass handed to him on Mortal Combat my his seven year old brother. "I'm pretty sure Dei. Damn it Shippo how do you do that!"

Shippo merely smiled serenely at his older brother. "It's called skill Sasori."

How no one noticed the speechless Sasuke and enraged Kagome was a mystery.

Crash!

"Damn you Sasori! I told you that in confidence you asshole!" Kagome yelled as she pounded on her cousin.

Oh…it would seem that Sasori did notice.

XOX

Nursing his wounds an hour later, Sasori managed to keep some distance from his fuming cousin as she silently hexed his being. Sasori had to suppress a shiver as Kagome turned her sinister glare on him. She sighed and got up, walking into the kitchen. It was silent in the room until…

"Were you serious Sasori?"

Sasori looked over to Sasuke. "Serious about what?"

"About Kagome liking me." Sasuke said in an almost whisper.

The red head simply nodded. "Why do you ask?"

Sasuke was silent and Naruto was grinning rather foxily. "Because, Sasuke likes her! Ne, Sasuke, you like her don't you?"

A faint blush settled onto Sasuke's pale cheeks and he nodded weakly. "Quite a lot actually, and I don't know why. I barely know her."

All conversation halted s Kagome walked back into the room. A frosty look overcome her pretty face as she stared at Sasori. "I'm going to Ichiraku's to get supper. I will be taking your car. You would be wise to not try and stop me. Deidara, you are coming with me."

Deidara quickly got up and walked to her side. "I know what everyone eats and no, Naruto you can't have seven bowls, un."

The pair left and as they heard the car pull out of the driveway, the conversation picked up again.

"Tell me what you know about her Sasuke and I and Shippo can fill in any blanks." Sasori suggested.

Sasuke nodded and shifted in his seat. "I know she likes anime, and Naoto is her favourite."

"Continue." Sasori said.

Throwing his hands in the air, Sasuke sighed. "That's it! That's all I know about her! See why this is affecting me so badly?"

Rolling his eyes, Itachi flicked on the TV. "It shouldn't be that much of a problem Sasuke. The point of dating someone is to find out more about them."

Sasuke whined and looked at Sasori. "Please, help me!"

"Okay, but please don't ever whine like that again." Sasori responded. "First off, her favourite anime isn't Naoto."

"It's not?" Naruto asked. "I thought it was."

"No, her favourite anime is actually Hellsing; Naoto is a very close second." Sasori said. "Kagome is a very weird creature in everything she does. Very rarely does she watch anything shojo, she prefers gory or fighting anime. She also has this weird obsession with cooking, she's not very good at it, but she likes to do it. Her favourite bands are Miyavi, Gackt, Aqua Timez and Orange Range, but she's also partial to an American band called Rascal Flatts. I think her favourite song is 'What Hurts the Most'. Oh, and if ever you want to make her cry, get her to sit down and watch 'One Liter of Tears'." Sasori stopped while a maniacal grin crossed his face. "Actually, she left it here, so we can watch it tonight if you want to up your chances with her."

Sasuke nodded enthusiastically. "Anything else? Like, what flowers does she like, what's her favourite food, what's her favourite colour, who's her favourite anime character?"

"Tiger lilies, green tea anything, baby blue and Lina Inverse from Slayers." Shippo said from his position to the right of Naruto. "You should also know she hates hypocrites, thinks the guys on 'The Wallflower' are so girly it makes her want to puke, and hates people who make fun of her video's and/or her anime obsession."

The sound of a car pulling up in the driveway halted all conversation once again. Kagome and Deidara came back into the house laden down with bags and talking animatedly.

"…are so wrong Dei!" Kagome said, laden down with bags as they walked into the living room. "Alucard would so kick Raito's ass!"

"Yes, in a physical fight." Deidara responded sarcastically. "But Raito has the Death Note, he could just put Alucard's name down in it."

"Deidara. You can't kill the undead." She said flatly.

"Agreed." Said Sasuke. "You're having a pointless argument Deidara, one that Kagome will surely win."

"Thank you Sasuke!" Kagome said, giving him a brilliant smile.

Sasuke grinned sheepishly. "No problem Kagome."

"Alright, let's eat!" Itachi said and he began pulling the take out boxes out of the plastic bags.

XOX A year later XOX

"That was great!" A bubbly girl dressed in a pink kimono and a blue wig ala Botan grinned. "Thank you Inuyasha for your wonderful rendition of 'Pain' by Three Days Grace! Next up on Anime Idol, we have Sora Urahara singing 'What Hurts the Most' by Rascal Flatts!"

A year had passed and our favourite people once again found themselves at Tokyo Anime Fair. Little had changed between Sasuke and Kagome since their initial meeting. They hung out together all the time, usually accompanied by Naruto. Sadly, neither of them had admitted anything to the other, which is where Naruto's 'idiot proof' plan had come into action. He had (no so) subtly suggested that Sasuke sing Kagome's favourite song at the convention. After much convincing on Naruto's part, Sasuke had finally relented and signed his name down.

Sasuke stepped onto the stage and gulped as he spotted Kagome looking at him with shock. 'Botan' grinned at him. "Is there any particular reason you chose this song Sora?"

Sasuke nodded. "Yeah, the girl I'm in love with loves this song, though I really can't fathom why because it sucks. So, this is for you Naoto…

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house.
That don't bother me.
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out.
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while,
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me.
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok.
But that's not what gets me…

What hurts the most,
Was being so close.
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away.
And never knowing
What could have been.
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do."

Sasuke smiled at Kagome as he sang, slowly regretting choosing this song when he saw tears in her eyes.

"It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go.
But I'm doin' It.
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone.
Still Harder.
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret.
But I know if I could do it over.
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart.
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most.
Is being so close.
And having so much to say.
And watching you walk away.
And never knowing.
What could have been.
And not seeing that loving you.
Is what I was trying to do."

Kagome watched Sasuke sing and wondered why she never saw it before. The way that he looked at her, the way they interacted. Was she really that blind?

"What hurts the most.
Is being so close.
And having so much to say.
And watching you walk away.
And never knowing.
What could have been.
And not seeing that loving you,
Is what I was trying to do.

(Not seeing that loving you)
That's what I was trying to do"

The crowd went wild as the music stopped and 'Botan' popped up behind Sasuke, wiping a few tears from her eyes. "Well, I still have to consult with the judges but I think we have our winner!"

"Sasuke?"

Sasuke turned to the side of the stage where Kagome was. "Kagome…"

Her entire being was trembling as she walked toward him. She bit her lip and looked into his eyes with tears in her own. "Are you really in love with me Sasuke?"

Suddenly feeling very shy and exposed, Sasuke nodded. "Yeah, I really am Kagome."

Kagome broke eye contact her mouth forming an 'oh' as she nodded slowly. Her eyes locked onto his once again and she slowly took the little steps toward him. She gave him a gentle smile. "Why didn't you tell me before?" She said, shaking her head. "You really are clueless Sora."

Kagome grabbed the collar of his shirt, ignoring the catcalls as she planted a fierce kiss upon his lips. The noise seemed to stop, at least Sasuke couldn't hear it over the pounding of his heart in his ears. Slowly, his eyes closed as he placed a hand on her waist and kissed her back with as much vigour. Kagome moved her hand from his collar to the back of his neck and he pulled her closer to him. Slowly, they pulled away from each other, realization of what they had done and where they had done in came crashing over them and they both blushed.

"Holy…" 'Botan' said. Pumping a fist into the air, she yelled. "Who'd have thought that we'd get a little SoraNao action on this very stage!"

Sasuke took Kagome's hand in his and lead her from the stage. "Before we go face our friends I have one request."

"Anything." Kagome replied.

Sasuke smiled softly at her. "I know Naruto will have video taped that, so let's not put this on YouTube."

Kagome giggled. "Deal!"

Well, honestly, that last part I wrote while I was listening to Rascal Flatts, it just seemed to flow through me with the music.

Wahoo! Eighteen and a half pages, yay me!
