InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Bargaining Death ❯ The Day Out ( Chapter 5 )

AN**you know the drill

To answer a few questions ::

Sesshy81 : thank you for the comment. As for the boldface type. Someone said something about the text not being clear because of the "" marks. I did it to highlight it. Is it easier to read? I think I am going to go sans bold face from now on it's a bit annoying after a while.

dark-wolf-soulX: thank you for the comment. I think once she gets comfortable with him he might show her his demon features. I don't know yet what I am going to do with the whole ears thing. Interestingly enough I was wondering if anyone noticed the lack of ears.

Hellokitty-4-ever: thank you for all your comments. He is flirting with her. He doesn't want to kill her. You will find out how this whole gig came to be. Also, please remember he doesn't really know what to do with a girl exactly. It is somewhat complicated. But no he will not kill her under any circumstances. I promise. I really really do. Heheheheh

Also general an

Ok I know I have like no proof reading skills. I am aware of that. I am a college student with a lot of homework. Hence, I am very sorry about the misspellings or grammatical errors. I also apologize about the short chapters. It is easier to write 20 small chapters than 5 long ones. Thank you again for your lovely reviews.

Stupid useless fact. Ye actually means The, it does not mean you. Ye Olde Shoppe means The Old Shop. If you have studied the history of the English language you would know that.

On forth with the story :::

The Day Out

The quiet duo walked along the streets enjoying the outdoors. The young man walked along reveling in the breeze that blew through his hair. Never had he experienced sensations like this nor could any he remember from his past life. He casually placed his hands in his pockets eyeing the disgruntled girl next to him. I wonder what her hopes and dreams are. Does she want to grow old and harried like that grandfather of hers? On the other hand, does she want to stay young forever enjoying a life of utter freedom?

"You look wonderful today Kagome. I'm happy you agreed to show me around. I've never been here on anything other than business."

Kagome looked at Inuyasha as her anger from this morning melted from her eyes. This man across from her could be so charming one minute and an ass the next. She gave him her usual warm smile "Thank you for the compliment and you are welcome, I want to show you this little antique shop that I love to go to. It's my favorite store…" Kagome grabbed his hand and pulled him in the direction of the small shop where an antiqued woman worked. Inuyasha felt the warmth of her hand and all rational thought left his mind as she pulled him across the street chattering about Kaede and the store. When did start feeling emotion?

"Hello Kagome how are you today?" The old woman gave Kagome a motherly smile but turned cold when she spotted the young man behind her. Kagome wandered to the small jewelry counter in the back of the store looking at the new arrivals. "Demon you are not of this realm, why are you here? To take Kagome, she is too young she has so many years left to live."

"Calm down old hag. I am here from her grandfather; she is merely showing me around the area while I am on vacation." Inuyasha gave the woman a deadly smile.

"Death taking a vacation? How is this possible?"

"Psst. I'll tell you a secret hag. Do you really think I am responsible for all of the people in the world?" Before he could finish his statement, Kagome walked over holding a necklace with a large opal ball on it. "Oh Kaede how much is this necklace? Isn't it beautiful Inuyasha?" before Kaede could answer the question Kagome noticed the price and realized it was out of her price range. Her face drew into a deep frown before the necklace was snatched from her hands by Inuyasha.

"What are you doing you jerk!"

"I'm paying the stupid necklace wench. I thought it would look nice on you!" Inuyasha slammed the money on the counter and walked out the door in haste. The young girl was left standing dumbfounded as to what had happened. "Inuyasha Wait! I'm sorry" she ran out the door only to find Inuyasha looking at her with an arrogant smirk dangling the necklace in question.

"Is this what you're looking for? Try and get it" Kagome smiled at the challenge and began jumping to get the necklace from his grasp, but each time she jumped he took a step backwards until he reached the curb and fell flat on the ground causing Kagome to trip and land on top of him. Needless to say she did grab the necklace.

"You..You..!! You Pervert!! You did that on purpose." As she tired to free herself from the situation, she rubbed against the young man causing parts of him to begin stirring. "Me?!?! How am I the pervert you fell on top of me you stupid wench!"

"WENCH!! Who do you think you are calling wench. Listen here you moron MY NAME IS KA-GO-ME not WENCH!"

"Well KA-GO-ME get off of ME!!" after an embarrassing scene in the middle of the street the two untangled their limbs and continued walking down the street.

"Thank you" mumbled the girl. "For what?" "You know the necklace thank you"

"Keh! You're welcome, it's nothing really."

"Well thank you anyway, Oh look! A flower show. Do you want to go?" The girl looked at Inuyasha with renewed hope that caused him to give her a genuine smile, which was something he rarely did. He did not necessarily like flowers but if it made her smile like that, he would tolerate it. "Sure I would love to go."

They walked around the fair looking at the different flower arrangements each more beautiful than the next. As they were about to exit he grabbed a flower from one of the exhibits and tucked it behind her ear. A little shocked at the contact she grabbed the flower; it was a small pink Calla lily, her favorite. When she turned to him she blushed "It's beautiful thank you"

"It's not nearly as beautiful as you." He moved his body closer to hers, she could feel his body heat through his clothes and it was causing parts of her to react to the situation. They stared intently into each other's eyes and before their lips met, a very angry old man stepped between them.

"Kagome I will not tolerate you acting like a Harlot!! Get back home now and as for you young man I will speak with you privately!" scolded Grandpa Higurashi.

"Grandpa I am old enough to run my own life, I don't need you telling me what to do!"

"Kagome go home now. I will not tell you again. You have disgraced your family acting this way!" Out of embarrassment, Kagome ran home in tears. She had never kissed a boy before. Her friends were wondering if she even liked men because of her lack of gentleman callers. She thought having a boyfriend in school was bothersome. She needed to concentrate on her studies not a boy. However, her grandfather was making things more difficult for her. As she ran into her house, her mother noticed she was distressed.

"Kagome dear what's wrong? Did something happen? Where's Inuyasha?" inquired Mrs. Higurashi.

"Inuyasha and me went to the flower fair today and he gave me a flower and was about to kiss me when grandpa started hollering and calling me a harlot and telling me I disgraced the family. He said he wanted to speak with Inuyasha privately." The young woman cried on as her mother held her. "Don't worry sweety I'll deal with Grandpa. Why don't you lie down and relax and I will take care of everything." "Ok mama, I'll be in my room". The young girl meandered up to her room for a nice afternoon nap. If nothing else, the day was not a complete loss. She did get to involuntarily grope Inuyasha.
