Inuyasha and his band, along with Kagome, decided to roam the hotel the next day. Kagome wanted to see the pool room and to her surprise it was rather big. There was a high diving board on the far end, and the pool went up to ten feet. Back in high school, Kagome was known as the fastest swimmer. She has even won the Aquatics Championship in the fifty meter. She looked to Inuyasha with a smile.
"Can we go swimming?" Kagome asked with a twinkle in her eyes. Inuyasha chuckled.
"Sure if you have your stuff with you." Inuyasha said. Kagome lifted her bag showing that she came prepared. Sango took Kagome's hand with a smile and pulled her to the changing room. Both girls where laughing about the fun they were going to have.
"You know I think Sango has found a friend in Kagome." Miroku stated with a light chuckle. Inuyasha shook his head with an amused expression.
"I believe Sango thinks of Kagome as a little sister. Sango never stops talking about Kagome and how she wishes that they were." Shippo stated.
"That is true. Sango does treat her like a little sister." Miroku said. The boys watched the girls come out of the dressing room with smiles on their faces.
"Well come on you guys, don't just stand their and gawk. Get your butts in gear and get dressed." Sango stated with a chuckle. The boys widened their eyes and turned around to get dressed in their changing room. When Inuyasha saw Kagome in that emerald green bikini, he couldn't help but blush as bright as a tomato. Miroku smirked when he saw Sango in her hot pink bikini, all these lecherous thoughts were going through his mind right now. Shippo noticed the twos' reaction to the girls chuckling to himself.
"I must say, Sango and Kagome looked rather sexy." Miroku stated with a hand to his chin and a devilish smile. Inuyasha glared at Miroku with a slight growl.
"Don't even think about it Miroku, or you'll find yourself branded in the dirt." Inuyasha warned. Shippo noticed the growl, unlike Miroku. That stupid lecher couldn't keep his hands off Sango's ass and that always pissed her off. 'If he so dares touch Kagome, I'll pumble him into the ground. He may be my drummer, but if he lays one hand on her I won't hesitate to teach him a lesson.' He growled to himself. Shippo noticed the glare that Inuyasha gave Miroku when he wasn't looking. Shippo decided to have a little private chat with Inuyasha, so he tapped him on the shoulder. Inuyasha stopped growling and turned to look at Shippo.
"Yes Shippo?" Inuyasha asked with a raised brow. Shippo nudged his head away in the direction away from Miroku, to keep him from eavesdropping on their conversation.
"I just want to talk to you in private." Shippo said. Inuyasha nodded as he looked towards Miroku.
"Yo Miroku, go on without us. We'll meet you out there in a minute." Inuyasha said. Miroku gave an all too familiar smile that had Inuyasha glaring.
"Alright. I'll make sure everything goes well with the girls." Miroku stated. Inuyasha stepped towards Miroku with a low growl which made Miroku freeze.
"What?" Miroku asked innocently holding his hands up with a nervous smile.
"Keep your hands off them Miroku. I better not walk in there and hear them complain about you being a stupid leach." Inuyasha warned. Miroku chuckled nervously.
"I can't help it Inuyasha, Sango's butt is just so touchable. I wonder how Kagome's butt feel like." Miroku stated with a hand to his chin. Inuyasha growled grabbing Miroku by the front of his shirt that he still had on and held him nose to nose with him. Miroku was surprised at Inuyasha's actions. Even Shippo's eyes went wide as he watched the scene before him.
"I'm warning you only once you stupid lecher. Keep. Your. Hands. Off. If I find out that you have touched her, I won't hesitate to pumble you into the ground. Hopefully by then you will learn your lesson." Inuyasha warned as he let go of Miroku. The poor guy straightened out his shirt as he looked at Inuyasha in shock. Shippo walked up to Inuyasha, placing a hand on his shoulder. Shippo looked at Miroku and gave a nod.
"If I were you Miroku, I would take his warning seriously. Inuyasha isn't messing around here." Shippo stated with a knowing look. Miroku looked at Inuyasha, then back at Shippo. He finally got the idea and gave a nod, leaving the two demons to their conversation.
"Inuyasha?" Shippo began as he looked at him. Inuyasha took a deep breath to calm himself down and turned to look at Shippo.
"What did you want to talk about Shippo?" Inuyasha asked. Shippo leaned against the wall with crossed arms and a serious look.
"Do you have feelings for Kagome Inuyasha?" Shippo asked. Inuyasha widened his eyes with shock.
"What? I don't know what you're talking about Shippo. Kagome just broke up with Koga not too long ago, so I'm pretty sure she doesn't want to be in another relationship right now." Inuyasha stated.
"Yes, but do you have feelings for her?" Shippo asked again for clarification. Inuyasha looked away from Shippo to think about his question thoroughly. He cared for her, there was no doubt about that. He hated the thought of someone hurting her, and hated the fact that Koga had cheated on her and broke her heart. With the little time that they have spent together so far, he came to see that Kagome's heart is very fragile but very special. She was special. Inuyasha smiled to himself and came to the conclusion that he did have feelings for her.
"Yes, I do. I know it's only been a few days but I do care about her. I never would've thought that I would love again, but I feel like that's going to change. Maybe not right now, but one day. She still needs time to get over her break up with Koga. I don't want to say anything to her about how I feel right now, it's too soon." Inuyasha explained. Shippo looked at Inuyasha with a smile.
"You know, I believe that you are good for Kagome. You and her have been through the same thing, so you understand each other. And when you two sing together, you make a powerful duo. I was blown away when you two sung that song yesterday." Shippo stated. Inuyasha chuckled as the both of them stepped out of the dressing room to head for the pool.
"Come on Kagome! You said that you could do it!" Sango shouted. Inuyasha and Shippo stopped at the pool and looked up at the diving board. Inuyasha's eyes went wide when he saw Kagome so high up. 'What does this woman thins she's doing!?' He asked himself with a worried expression.
"Give me a break Sango! I haven't done this in awhile!" Kagome shouted back as she looked down taking small deep breaths. Everyone watched as Kagome readied herself. She took a few start jumps, then jumped high in the air doing a forward and a half flip dive. As she hit the water, all eyes were wide and mouths agape. Kagome came up seeing everyone's expression and chuckled.
"That was amazing Kagome!" Sango exclaimed.
"Great form Kagome." Miroku stated as he clapped.
"Wow! That was super awesome!" Shippo said. Kagome chuckled with a light blush forming on her cheeks. Then she looked at Inuyasha. She wondered what was going through his mind right now.
"What did you think Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha blinked a couple of times before he was able to gather his thoughts.
"You were very graceful Kagome. Absolutely perfect." He told her with a smile. Kagome blushed lightly as she smiled. Then she saw a smirk play across his lips and gave her a wink. 'What is he up to?' She asked herself. Shippo chuckled as he swam up next to her.
"Inuyasha has won a few Aquatic Championships when he was in high school." Shippo told her as they watched him climb the diving board. Kagome rose a brow.
"Oh? Which meter?" Kagome asked.
"The fifty meter pool." Miroku stated from behind. Kagome turned to look at Miroku with a shocked expression, then she looked back up at Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha was known as the best and most fastest swimmer in the school." Sango explained. Kagome watched as Inuyasha got into a ready position but he was on his hands. He fell backwards and did a few somersaults before hitting the water. Everyone cheered and Kagome's eyes were wide with surprise. When he came up, Inuyasha smiled at Kagome.
"Wow, that was simply amazing Inuyasha." Kagome said softly.
"It's been awhile but I still got it." He stated with a wink. Everyone praised Inuyasha for his performance. Everyone began playing and splashing in the pool. Miroku made a grab for Sango's butt yet again which pissed her off.
"Miroku you stupid lecher! I'm gonna kill you!" Sango growled as she started swimming after him. Miroku laughed as he began to swim away from her. Kagome, Inuyasha and Shippo all stared at the two with stoic expressions.
"Idiot." All three of them said as they watched Miroku come around. Miroku smirked as he mad for Kagome's butt as well which made Kagome widen her eyes.
"Ahh! Hands off you damn leach!" Kagome growled. Inuyasha glared and growled at Miroku making a grab for his arm.
"I warned you to not touch her Miroku. Now you're going to regret it." Inuyasha threatened. He gave an evil smirk as he held Miroku in place.
"He's all yours Sango." Inuyasha stated. Miroku widened his eyes with a tinge of fear.
"N-No Inuyasha, please I beg of you." Miroku pleaded. Inuyasha chuckled as he watched Kagome crack her knuckles.
"Sorry Miroku, but you put yourself in this position. I told you to stop you lecherous ways or you would regret it." Inuyasha told him. Miroku panicked as Sango and Kagome got closer.
"Please Inuyasha, I promise I won't do it anymore. Please let me go." Miroku pleaded desperately. Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"Oh just take your punishment like a man." Inuyasha demanded as the two girls got closer. Once the girls were close enough, Inuyasha smirked.
"He's all yours girls." He told them as he dropped Miroku in the water, dunking him for one last measure and got out of the way. As soon as Miroku came up for air, Sango and Kagome clobbered him on the head and left two handprints on his cheeks. Miroku swam for his life and reached the edge of the pool to get out. As soon as Miroku got out, he started heading for the dressing room. Inuyasha smirked as he placed his foot out in front of Miroku, tripping him to make him fall face down into the ground. Inuyasha looked down at Miroku with an act of worry.
"Whoops. Sorry, didn't know you were coming through here." Inuyasha smirked. The girls chuckled as they watched Inuyasha coming back to the pool. He saw Kagome stare at him with a smile.
"You know, this is the most fun I have ever had. I never had this much fun." Kagome stated. Inuyasha got into the water and walked close to Kagome with a smile himself.
"I'm glad you're having fun Kagome." He said as he began swimming. Kagome blushed warmly. 'The more I spend time with him, the more I start to like him.' Kagome thought to herself. The day went on with Inuyasha and the gang playing and talking about each other. They all hung out that day until the sun began to set stating that their fun day has come to an end... At least.. for now.
