The next morning, Kagome braced herself for a morning of stupid speeches, and ridiculous acts of kindness that the suitors thought would 'whoo' her. She found that the morning seemed to drone on forever.
Finally , after the brunch was over, she ran up to her room and changed out of the stupid frilly outfit she was currently wearing.
She put on a Panic! At The Disco tee shirt, black shorts, and grey sandals and braided her long flowing hair. She then gathered up her phone, laptop, and earbuds, and headed out the door.
As she scurried to get out of the castle unnoticed, she ran into her sister, Sango. She quickly greeted her, then finally ran out the big double doors into freedom.
She spotted InuYasha by a large tree and walked over to him. She said that they should get to know each other, so she opened up her laptop and showed him all of her digital drawings. She also showed him what kind of music she liked on her phone and, to her surprise, they had the same taste in music.
After a little while of lazying around, they went inside to get a quick bite to eat. Kagome froze when she saw her brother, Sesshomaru, and her two sisters, Sango and Ayame, standing there. They seemed a bit surprised that she was hanging out with a boy, especially one of her suitors. Ayame was shocked, Sango had a proud smirk on her face, and Sesshy looked as expressionless as ever. Finally Sango spoke up.
"So Kags. You finally chose a guy!" She said excitedly.
Kagome blushed and replied. "NO. Guys this is InuYasha, my friend." She put an extra emphasis on the word friend to let them know she was not interested in anything like that. Sango, still smiling, replied.
"Whatever you say, Kags. Anyway, don't be late for dinner!" She called after her sister, whom was currently running up the stairs furiously up to her room, with the smirking friend right behind her.
"Wow. Your sister seems like a pain in the ass." InuYasha said as he walked into his new friend's room.
"Tell me about it. She's just teasing me because I don't usually hang out with guys. In fact I don't usually hang out with anyone." She laughed.
"Anyway. This is my room. It's where I spend most of my time. The walls are soundproof. And before you make a perverted remark," she said, addressing the way his eyebrows quirked up at her last statement, "it is only because I like to blast music on full volume, not anything else."
InuYasha laughed and sat on a bean bag chair by her bed. Kagome flopped on the bed and turned on the tv. After much discussion of what to watch, they agreed on watching a horror movie that had recently been released, and laughed at the fake blood, bad acting, and predictable jump scares.
They were so caught up in making fun of more movies and predicting every next action, that they didn't even realize that dinner time came and passed, and that every person at that table was predicting the worst of what the two could possibly be doing. (Uh oh. You guys in trouble.)
