Chapter one: One tequila, two tequila three tequila...

Caribou Lou
The pain in her head was now racing into her neck, causing her to tense up even more. The wedding planner was rambling on about how the location was all wrong for the trendy wedding that the Yamamoto family wanted. Being one of the wealthiest families in all of Japan such a traditional wedding at her family's shrine just would not do for a Yamamoto wedding. Looking around she suppressed a groan that was threatening to spill from her lips.
Megumi Ochi sat across from her behind her cherry wood desk, a fake smile plastered across her face as she explained the benefits of having the wedding held in the Crystal Gardens courtyard. She kept waving her perfectly manicured hands about, after wards she would smooth down her puke green dress suit. Her sleek black hair was pulled into a ponytail and a matching puke green headband sat at the beginning of her bangs. For being one of the most desired wedding planners her ensemble was boarding the line of disgusting. I can only hope that those colors do not reflect that colors of my wedding. She glanced around at the sunshine yellow walls once more.
"You see in the end the courtyard is perfect! It's outside like you wanted Ms. Higurashi, just like it would have been at your shrine, but it has more space for the growing guest list as well! It's also a very desirable place for the young super stars to get married at these days!" Laying out a map of the Crystal Garden's courtyard she pointed out various sections, "This is where we will have your family sitting, Mr. Yamamoto your family will be over here, this section will be your father's business partners, this one here will be your business affiliates. Over here is reserved for close family members and friends. There will be security as well, so that the media will not pass this section, it will be roped off as well."
"Wait," they all looked up at Kagome, "media? And I'm sorry, but why are the business partners closer then my family?" she rubbed the bridge of her nose and shook her head, "I just really do not like this idea, I'm sorry." Megumi's smile faltered for only a moment before waving her hand dismissively.
"I'm sure you will be happier with this idea once you've seen it! The assortment of exotic trees and flowers they have laid out in that courtyard is so extravagant," she pulled out a stack of photos and began laying them out, all the while Kagome was shaking her head still.
"Sweetheart," she looked up at her fiance and gave him a soft smile, "I know you've always wanted to wed at your family's shrine but there is just not enough room for all the guests."
"I know Hojo, it's just..." she trailed off looking at her fiance's pleading eyes, "Okay, we can hold the wedding there."
"Oh perfect!" Megumi nearly squealed in delight clapping her hands together, "I've already scheduled a tour for you two love birds! I do hope Tuesday isn't to soon? I had the rush the booking, the dates were filling up fast! Oh that brings me to another change, the date, it's been pushed up two weeks." Kagome's eyes went wide and she slammed her hand down on the desk startling both Megumi and Hojo.
"No, I will not compromise on the date!" Megumi sputtered at her sudden outburst. Hojo rushed to calm Kagome but she brushed him off. "No, that date is special to me, if Crystal Gardens is not available for that date then you change the location, not the date."
"I'm sorry Ms. Higurashi, I didn't mean to...I just didn't...Uh," Megumi looked to Hojo for help but he only shrugged.
"Figure it out then get back to me, I'm late for a lunch meeting," Kagome grabbed her briefcase and walked out of the wedding planners office, hurriedly followed by Hojo. Once outside of the disgustingly colored building Kagome slowed down and took a deep breath. Hojo grabbed her arms at turned her to him, giving her a soft apologetic smile.
"Kagome my love..."
"I'm sorry. That...I just want...no I need to get married that day. It's a very important date for me Hojo, it's...my father," he pressed a finger against her lips, cutting off her words. Tears have formed in her eyes and were threatening to spill down her cheeks.
"I know Kagome, I had no idea she had changed the date. We'll find another place to get married, I'd marry you in the back alley of Wacdonalds if it meant you would be happy," Kagome smiled and hugged her soon to be husband and took a deep breath, breathing in the clean scent of Hojo.
"You're so good to me," she whispered as he stroke her hair.
"As you are to me my peanut," giving her a quick kiss he stepped into his sleek BMW and drove off. Kagome grinned before throwing her briefcase in the passenger seat of her Lexus and driving to her lunch meeting.
`~`
"Well, well, look who finally decided to show up!" Kagome blushed as she took a seat at the table. Smoothing her skirt under her she scooted in before laying the ruby red cloth napkin across her lap. "Did you and Hojo get caught up?" Her best friend wiggled her eyebrows at her as her and her other girl friend laughed once Kagome turned bright red.
"No Rin! I did not, well...at least not like that," Kagome took a sip of water while trying to push away the rising heat in her cheeks, "we were at the wedding planners a little longer then I meant to be." Rin huffed and flipped her shoulder length hair over her shoulder.
"That Ochi women is insufferable! Has she learned to dress yet?" Kagome laughed and gave her head a shake.
"Didn't Yura use her for her wedding too?" Sango asked taking a rather large gulp of coke. Rin nodded thoughtfully while stirring her thin red straw around in her shirley temple. "Didn't that marriage only last what...six months?"
"Yes, yes it did. Ochi also planned Eri's wedding, and I believe that marriage failed as well," she wagged her finger in Kagome's direction, "watch out. That women is jinxed!" Sango 'mmhmmed' in agreement.
"Oh hush you too," Kagome shot them a playful glare, "Hojo and I have been together since high school! If we haven't failed yet I don't think marriage will, jinxed wedding planner or not." Sango leaned over pointing at Kagome with her fork, which still held a biteful of leafy green salad.
"I still think you're rushing this!" Kagome sighed but she waved her sigh off, "You're not even 23 Kagome! Isn't Hojo the only man you've been with?" Kagome choked on a sip of water, eyes darting around the restaurant to make sure no one was listening.
"What does that matter Sango?" Sango leaned back and exchanged knowing looks with Rin, "Oh stop that!" Kagome laughed it off as the waiter approached her to take her order. Handing the menu back with a smile she looked back at her friends, who were still giving her a strange look.
"I know you love him Kagome, but...don't you think you need to try out some other pants? If you get my drift," Rin gave her a wink that made her blush once again. Shaking her head Kagome waved her hand dismissively.
"No, my pants fit fine thank you! Lets change the subject shall we? Sango, how are things with your newest boy toy now days?" Sango flushed and the other two girls giggled, "very well I take it?"
"Oh, more then well," Rin burst out laughing, causing more then one pair of eyes to drift there way. Kagome hushed them, trying to contain her giggles as well.
"I don't understand why you haven't settled on a boyfriend yet Sango," Rin sighed and rolled her eyes at Kagome.
"Kagome, you are so naive sometimes, Sango here is playing the field, trying on some pants if you will," Sango nodded munching on the last bites of her salad, "we're to young to settle! We're all at the top of our games right now, why give that up for matrimonial bliss?"
"I must agree with Rin," Sango stated, "I'm about to make partner, Rin's assisting in her third company take down and you're boutique was just named in Sacred Magazine as one of the top 25 most fashionable places to shop at." Kagome's eyes nearly popped out of her head as the other girls laughed.
"What!? Are you serious!" Kagome nearly screamed, attempting to keep her voice hushed in the semi-quiet restaurant, "tell me you're kidding. Do you have a copy?" Sango fished out the newest edition to Sacred and handed it over. Kagome began to flip through the magazine furiously until she came upon the page that had her retail store featured, "A whole page devoted to Tama! This..this is amazing! I'm number 7! Sango! Rin! Number 7!"
"I know!" Rin once again caused man patrons to glare their way, which she gladly returned with one of her own, "This is exciting! We need to celebrate!" Kagome's smile faltered as she looked one page over, "Uh...number 6 isn't important! Yay number 7!" Her and Sango exchanged worried looks as Kagome's smile completely slipped away.
"Kikyo..." Kagome sighed and set the magazine down, "she's always one step ahead of me." Sango covered Kagome's hands with her own.
"Who cares? You made it into the top 25! That's what counts! Who cares if you were number 25 or number one! You finally made it in, wasn't that what you wanted!" Kagome nodded and looked back down at the magazine and if it were possible her face became even sadder.
"What..." she picked it up and continued reading, "Thanks to her recent engagement to world known Hojo Yamamoto, Kagome Higurashi's Tama has become a very popular place to buy fashions from, whether they be her own or the other top designers sold there. Looks like Higurashi made a wise choice in excepting the more then shy bachelor's proposal." she looked up nearly in tears at her friends who were looking at her dumbfounded.
'I...I hadn't read it yet," Sango attempted to pull the magazine from Kagome's hand but she yanked it back from them and stared back down at it.
"Hojo has nothing to do with my store or my designs, it was my dream, my career, not his. Why...why would they even say something like that?" putting her head down she finally let a tear slip out.
"Oh no," Rin wrapped her arms around the crying girl and hushed her as Sango successfully stole the magazine away and stuffed it in the bottom of her bag never to be seen again until she got home and burned it.
`~`
"Number 6," Kikyo Mori smirked as she scanned the page dedicated to Ascend, her baby. She had opened Ascend up years ago and this was the first year she had been named in any magazine other then local ads. Her grin widened as her eyes drifted over to the next page, "Aww poor Kagome, still falling behind me, and only because you are marrying modern days royalty." She let out a bark of laughter and pushed up from her sitting position on the couch. Heading into her bedroom she leaned against the door frame with a seductive smile in place.
"Have you come to celebrate?" Kikyo gave the raven haired god in the bed before her a look that would have any man melting. Slinking over to the bed she tossed the magazine off to the side. Climbing onto the edge of the bed she crawled slowly over to him.
"Yes, I have," she reached him and wrapped her hand around the back of his head and pulled him into a lip bruising kiss. He moaned before wrapping his arms around her back and pulling him down on top of him. She rested between his legs, allowing her hand to drift down between them. He gasped against her lips as her hand slipped down his pants and gripped him tightly.
"Kik..yo," he grunted as she gave him a fast jerk, followed by a slower one. She giggled against his lips and ran her hand along him again, enjoying how his body jerked against hers.
"I love having my way with you," she whispered before pulling his pants down around his knees and straddling him.
"Kikyo?" she gasped and looked back behind her in shock, "what the fuck!" The silver hair hanyou stood in shock in his own bedroom's doorway.
"Yasha honey...You said you would be gone until Wednesday!" Kikyo quickly removed herself from atop of her bedroom guest, "This...this isn't..."
"Isn't what it looks like? It looks like you were about to fuck your father's company's vice president in our bed," he growled out, amber eyes taking on a deadly light.
"What? No...it's...It wasn't that!" Kikyo shot Naraku a deadly look as he pulled his pants up in a hurry.
"No, I think it was," he turned around and started to walk away. Kikyo reached out and grabbed his arm, Inuyasha rounded on her, hand up ready to strike. He stopped at the sight of her wide eyes, "Let me go Kikyo." her heart dropped at the finality in his voice. She nodded and released him as he stormed out. Silence hung thick in the air after he had slammed the door shut.
"So uh...are you gonna finish?" Kikyo turned to stare at the half naked man in her bedroom and began to laugh. He look startled before she stopped abruptly and screamed for him to get out.
`~`
"Stupid magazine, I made that business! I'm the reason people want to shop there!" Kagome slurred leaning heavily on Rin as she waved around her half gone drink. Rin grunted her reply as she downed yet another shot. Sango stumbled up to them with a blue marker and drew another line on Rin's wrist, totally 15 so far. Reaching over she turned Kagome's wrist over and shot her a look of disapproval.
"Why aren't you at least at ten!?" she waved her hand over at the bartender. He came over, leaning over giving Sango a once over with a lecherous grin.
"What can I get you beautiful ladies?" Sango opened her mouth to order but was cut off as Kagome slammed her hand down between them and leaned in.
"Do you read Sacred?" she rose an eyebrow at him as he laughed with a shake of his head, "good! They are liars! I did that! I did it all! Not...not Hobo!"
"Hojo Kagome," Rin pipped in throwing back the rest of Kagome's drink. Kagome looked at her with a glazed over look as Rin handed her back her cup, "you finished it honey, you need another one." Kagome looked down at the cup then back up at Rin.
"I did? I don't even remember...." she tipped the glass over giving it a shake before shrugging her shoulders, "shots all around please!" she spun towards the bar again, nearly falling over. The bartender laughed and poured out three shots of Grey Goose and passed them out.
"To being successful!" Sango cheered as they all clicked glasses, sloshing themselves with vodka before breaking into giggles. After downing the shot Kagome's face screwed up in disgust before walking around in circles.
"Walking it off! Get us another one! Hurry, hurry!" the bartender gave them all a shake of his head as Sango added another mark on all three of their wrists. Rin leaned over trailing her manicured nails down his arm.
"You do not want to say no to us tonight deary," she purred, "see my friend over there? She's had a bad night, we need to get her outta that funk, so we pay, you pour and everything will be fine." she slid over two bills with a wink. The bartender gawked at the money before nodding his head enthusiastically and poured them three more rounds of shots.
"Woo!" Kagome started to tip over as she took her next shot, "who cares what a magazine says right?"
"Right!" both Sango and Rin cheered taking holding up their shot glasses.
"I'm better then Kikyo's store too! That stupid copy cat relative of Hobo's!" she leaned heavily onto Sango, who was attempting to draw another tally on her wrist.
"Hojo," she muttered while biting down on her tongue and squinting at her wrist, "why...why do I have twenty and you don't?" She shoved the next three shots at Kagome who woop'd and got started on finishing them off.
`~`
Slamming down his shot glass Inuyasha groaned at the liquid burned all the way down. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath while waving his hand in the air to get the bartender's attention, who happened to be his best friend. Miroku came over with a bottle of tequila and took away Inuyasha's glasses and handed his friend the bottle. Inuyasha eyed him and he shrugged.
"You'll need it," Inuyasha nodded and brought the bottle to his lips and started to chug the golden liquid. Bringing the bottle down he grimaced at the after taste and Miroku just shook his head.
"Stupid wench! Cheating on me!?" His speech was already slurred as he wobbled on his bar stool, "Miroku...me! I've got money, the looks, the house, hell I'm the best lay in this god for saken town!" A hurt look came across Miroku's face.
"Hey...I'm pretty high up there," Inuyasha swiped at him while Miroku laughed and pushed a glass of water his way, "I know you're raging man, but take it easy."
"No! I will not take it easy! That's how I got into this mess Miroku!" Inuyasha waved the bottle in Miroku's direction, "I gave her space when she started to stress out, I bowed down to her, pampered her, allowed her unlimited access to anything that was mine, and look where it got me! Second best to that....that...slug of a man!" He began drinking his bottle again when he heard it.
"I'm better then Kikyo's store too!" his ears swiveled in the direction of the giggling girl. His eyes followed, unfocused at first but soon found the source of the giggles. His breath hitched at her beauty.
Blue-black hair hung down her back in waves, looking like an inky black sea of silk. Her porcelain skin was flushed from her intoxication. The halter top she wore dipped low, revealing an ample amount of cleavage. It's deep purple color looked almost black in the dimmed atmosphere, that matched her black mini skirt that cut off mid-thigh to show of her toned legs that seemed to go over forever before disappearing into ankle stiletto boots.
His mouth went dry as she twirled around laughing with her friends, her shirt rising up to show the flat plane of her stomach. He took another swig of his tequila before standing up. Before he knew it he had reached the girls who were concentrating on adding the tallies on their wrists up. The shorter girl looked up at him with questioning eyes, he tipped his bottle at her in a salute.
"Hi!" the goddess before him spoke as she swayed in her spot, "I'm Kagome! And I'm better then Kikyo!" She giggled while leaning on his arm for support.
"Kikyo Mori?" Inuyasha yelled over the music and she nodded her head furiously.
"She's a bitch!" She gasped and her hand flew to her mouth in shock, "I didn't mean that! Well...maybe I did! But...that's OK!" she giggled more and accepted the overflowing glass of beer Miroku handed to her. He gave him a questioning look that he ignored.
"No, you're right! She is a bitch," Kagome looked up at him from her beer and smiled, a shy but seductive smile that Inuyasha gladly returned with one of his own. "She's my ex."
"No!" he nodded at her out burst, "How did she ever manage to snag such a winner like you!" she blushed furiously at her slip and he just smiled.
"I asked myself that today!" he clinked his bottle of tequila with her beer and they both took giant gulps, "care to dance?' Kagome nodded before passing off her beer to her other raven haired friend, who was busy flirting it up with Miroku. Inuyasha took her hand in his, ignoring the tingles that ran up his arm at her touch.
Turning her around so her back was against his chest, he trailed his hands down her sides to rest of her hips. He smirked at the small shudder that ran through her body as they began to sway to the music. He allowed the groan to slip passed his lips as she began to grind her ass against his groin. Gripping her hips he leaned forward, his lips brushing against the junction of her neck and shoulders. She gasped and he did it again, this time running his tongue up her neck. Kagome groaned allowing her foggy head to fall back on his shoulder while they continued to sway to the music, going much slower then the beat as he continued to kiss along her shoulders and neck. Twisting her around in his arms, he pulled her close to him, making sure every possible inch of them touched as he ground his hips against her, delighting in the surprised gasp as his aroused member came in contact with her.
"Your....so...so big!" she squeaked blushing furiously. Inuyasha smirked and continued to sway with her. After a few songs they headed back to the bar to find both Sango and Rin missing. Frowning Kagome picked up his abandoned tequila bottle and began to take large gulps from it.
Stupid good for nothing friends leaving me here when I'm so in need of a friend. Hmmm but this cutie is still here. hehehehe
"Why don't we get out of here!" Inuyasha looked down started at her, blinking a few times he nodded and she all but dragged him out of the bar.
`~`
Kagome fumbled with the key card, frowning down at the little red light as she passed the card through yet another time. Growling, Inuyasha nearly shoved her out of the way, swishing around the last few sips of tequila in his bottle. Taking the key card from her, Kagome stole the tequila and quickly downed the rest, followed by a high pitch giggle. Cursing Inuyasha dropped the key card and bent down to retrieve it, only to lose his balance and fall forward onto Kagome, who only laughed some more as he brought her down too. Inuyasha attacked her lips with his own as he found himself on top of her, while feeling around for the key card. Showering kisses along her jaw and neck she moaned and arched her back, rubbing her breasts against him.
"Fucking card where are you," he mumbled between kisses.
"Oh...this card?" Kagome held up the small piece of plastic and Inuyasha growled before yanking it away from her. Struggling to his feet, he straightened himself and passed the card through the slot, turning the light green. Shoving open the door he grabbed Kagome by the wrists and pulled her to her feet, and flesh up against his chest. Shoving hands into her hair he kissed her with a lip bruising force as he walked them backwards into the dark hotel room. Kagome squealed as they tipped backwards onto the bed and she found herself on top of him.
Straddling his lap Kagome pulled her halter top over her head then helped Inuyasha out of his button down shirt; by ripping it open. Inuyasha flinched at the sound of scattering buttons but was quickly distracted as Kagome unfastened her bra. His amber eyes lit with a hungry desire as he sat up and brought a clawed hand up to cup one perfectly round globe. He moaned in appreciation at the sudden intake of air as he suckled on her nipple. Kagome held his head to her chest as she slowly rocked her hips against him. Groaning he pushed Kagome away to stand and finished removing their clothes. Kagome continued to wiggle out of her skirt as Inuyasha laid back along the bed fully naked. She was working off her first heel when she paused, eyes wide.
"Are you OK?" he propped himself up on his elbows and eyed her suspiciously. She shook her head, hand flying up to her mouth.
"Oh God!" she raced/limped to the bathroom with her one heel in her hand and proceeded to retch. Inuyasha's ears flattened against his skull before flopping back down on the bed with a sigh. Twenty minutes later Kagome, clad in her one shoe, came stumbling out to find a passed out hanyou. With a shrug she flopped down next to him and was out for the rest of the night.
`~`
riiiinnnnggg rrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggggg
What clearly was her cellphone ringing sounded more like nails on a chalkboard in Kagome's head. With a groan she leaned over the edge of the bed, eyes still closed, she rummaged around her purse to find the annoying piece or technology. Flipping it open she muttered a groggy hello while making contact with the pillow again.
"Kagome?! Thank God your OK! I've been worried sick, you never came home last night, and you always come home! I was about ready to call the cops, you weren't answering your phone all last night," Kagome suppressed a groan as Hojo continued to ramble, adding to her already pounding headache. Stretching out on her back she noticed two things at once; one she was completely naked and two she was covered in silky silver sheets. Wait...that's..that's not the sheets.
"Kagome, where are you?" taking a hold of the silver perfect Kagome started to follow it along to the other side of the bed.
"I'm uh..." she continued following the trail until finally she noticed two dog ears poking out of the hair, that was attached to a head, that was also attached to a man's body. A very naked man's body. "Oh shit," without thinking Kagome gulped and flipped the phone shut, eyes wide in horror.

"I know!" Rin once again caused man patrons to glare their way, which she gladly returned with one of her own, "This is exciting! We need to celebrate!" Kagome's smile faltered as she looked one page over, "Uh...number 6 isn't important! Yay number 7!" Her and Sango exchanged worried looks as Kagome's smile completely slipped away.
"Kikyo..." Kagome sighed and set the magazine down, "she's always one step ahead of me." Sango covered Kagome's hands with her own.
"Who cares? You made it into the top 25! That's what counts! Who cares if you were number 25 or number one! You finally made it in, wasn't that what you wanted!" Kagome nodded and looked back down at the magazine and if it were possible her face became even sadder.
"What..." she picked it up and continued reading, "Thanks to her recent engagement to world known Hojo Yamamoto, Kagome Higurashi's Tama has become a very popular place to buy fashions from, whether they be her own or the other top designers sold there. Looks like Higurashi made a wise choice in excepting the more then shy bachelor's proposal." she looked up nearly in tears at her friends who were looking at her dumbfounded.
'I...I hadn't read it yet," Sango attempted to pull the magazine from Kagome's hand but she yanked it back from them and stared back down at it.
"Hojo has nothing to do with my store or my designs, it was my dream, my career, not his. Why...why would they even say something like that?" putting her head down she finally let a tear slip out.
"Oh no," Rin wrapped her arms around the crying girl and hushed her as Sango successfully stole the magazine away and stuffed it in the bottom of her bag never to be seen again until she got home and burned it.

"Number 6," Kikyo Mori smirked as she scanned the page dedicated to Ascend, her baby. She had opened Ascend up years ago and this was the first year she had been named in any magazine other then local ads. Her grin widened as her eyes drifted over to the next page, "Aww poor Kagome, still falling behind me, and only because you are marrying modern days royalty." She let out a bark of laughter and pushed up from her sitting position on the couch. Heading into her bedroom she leaned against the door frame with a seductive smile in place.
"Have you come to celebrate?" Kikyo gave the raven haired god in the bed before her a look that would have any man melting. Slinking over to the bed she tossed the magazine off to the side. Climbing onto the edge of the bed she crawled slowly over to him.
"Yes, I have," she reached him and wrapped her hand around the back of his head and pulled him into a lip bruising kiss. He moaned before wrapping his arms around her back and pulling him down on top of him. She rested between his legs, allowing her hand to drift down between them. He gasped against her lips as her hand slipped down his pants and gripped him tightly.
"Kik..yo," he grunted as she gave him a fast jerk, followed by a slower one. She giggled against his lips and ran her hand along him again, enjoying how his body jerked against hers.
"I love having my way with you," she whispered before pulling his pants down around his knees and straddling him.
"Kikyo?" she gasped and looked back behind her in shock, "what the fuck!" The silver hair hanyou stood in shock in his own bedroom's doorway.
"Yasha honey...You said you would be gone until Wednesday!" Kikyo quickly removed herself from atop of her bedroom guest, "This...this isn't..."
"Isn't what it looks like? It looks like you were about to fuck your father's company's vice president in our bed," he growled out, amber eyes taking on a deadly light.
"What? No...it's...It wasn't that!" Kikyo shot Naraku a deadly look as he pulled his pants up in a hurry.
"No, I think it was," he turned around and started to walk away. Kikyo reached out and grabbed his arm, Inuyasha rounded on her, hand up ready to strike. He stopped at the sight of her wide eyes, "Let me go Kikyo." her heart dropped at the finality in his voice. She nodded and released him as he stormed out. Silence hung thick in the air after he had slammed the door shut.
"So uh...are you gonna finish?" Kikyo turned to stare at the half naked man in her bedroom and began to laugh. He look startled before she stopped abruptly and screamed for him to get out.

"Stupid magazine, I made that business! I'm the reason people want to shop there!" Kagome slurred leaning heavily on Rin as she waved around her half gone drink. Rin grunted her reply as she downed yet another shot. Sango stumbled up to them with a blue marker and drew another line on Rin's wrist, totally 15 so far. Reaching over she turned Kagome's wrist over and shot her a look of disapproval.
"Why aren't you at least at ten!?" she waved her hand over at the bartender. He came over, leaning over giving Sango a once over with a lecherous grin.
"What can I get you beautiful ladies?" Sango opened her mouth to order but was cut off as Kagome slammed her hand down between them and leaned in.
"Do you read Sacred?" she rose an eyebrow at him as he laughed with a shake of his head, "good! They are liars! I did that! I did it all! Not...not Hobo!"
"Hojo Kagome," Rin pipped in throwing back the rest of Kagome's drink. Kagome looked at her with a glazed over look as Rin handed her back her cup, "you finished it honey, you need another one." Kagome looked down at the cup then back up at Rin.
"I did? I don't even remember...." she tipped the glass over giving it a shake before shrugging her shoulders, "shots all around please!" she spun towards the bar again, nearly falling over. The bartender laughed and poured out three shots of Grey Goose and passed them out.
"To being successful!" Sango cheered as they all clicked glasses, sloshing themselves with vodka before breaking into giggles. After downing the shot Kagome's face screwed up in disgust before walking around in circles.
"Walking it off! Get us another one! Hurry, hurry!" the bartender gave them all a shake of his head as Sango added another mark on all three of their wrists. Rin leaned over trailing her manicured nails down his arm.
"You do not want to say no to us tonight deary," she purred, "see my friend over there? She's had a bad night, we need to get her outta that funk, so we pay, you pour and everything will be fine." she slid over two bills with a wink. The bartender gawked at the money before nodding his head enthusiastically and poured them three more rounds of shots.
"Woo!" Kagome started to tip over as she took her next shot, "who cares what a magazine says right?"
"Right!" both Sango and Rin cheered taking holding up their shot glasses.
"I'm better then Kikyo's store too! That stupid copy cat relative of Hobo's!" she leaned heavily onto Sango, who was attempting to draw another tally on her wrist.
"Hojo," she muttered while biting down on her tongue and squinting at her wrist, "why...why do I have twenty and you don't?" She shoved the next three shots at Kagome who woop'd and got started on finishing them off.

Slamming down his shot glass Inuyasha groaned at the liquid burned all the way down. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath while waving his hand in the air to get the bartender's attention, who happened to be his best friend. Miroku came over with a bottle of tequila and took away Inuyasha's glasses and handed his friend the bottle. Inuyasha eyed him and he shrugged.
"You'll need it," Inuyasha nodded and brought the bottle to his lips and started to chug the golden liquid. Bringing the bottle down he grimaced at the after taste and Miroku just shook his head.
"Stupid wench! Cheating on me!?" His speech was already slurred as he wobbled on his bar stool, "Miroku...me! I've got money, the looks, the house, hell I'm the best lay in this god for saken town!" A hurt look came across Miroku's face.
"Hey...I'm pretty high up there," Inuyasha swiped at him while Miroku laughed and pushed a glass of water his way, "I know you're raging man, but take it easy."
"No! I will not take it easy! That's how I got into this mess Miroku!" Inuyasha waved the bottle in Miroku's direction, "I gave her space when she started to stress out, I bowed down to her, pampered her, allowed her unlimited access to anything that was mine, and look where it got me! Second best to that....that...slug of a man!" He began drinking his bottle again when he heard it.
"I'm better then Kikyo's store too!" his ears swiveled in the direction of the giggling girl. His eyes followed, unfocused at first but soon found the source of the giggles. His breath hitched at her beauty.
Blue-black hair hung down her back in waves, looking like an inky black sea of silk. Her porcelain skin was flushed from her intoxication. The halter top she wore dipped low, revealing an ample amount of cleavage. It's deep purple color looked almost black in the dimmed atmosphere, that matched her black mini skirt that cut off mid-thigh to show of her toned legs that seemed to go over forever before disappearing into ankle stiletto boots.
His mouth went dry as she twirled around laughing with her friends, her shirt rising up to show the flat plane of her stomach. He took another swig of his tequila before standing up. Before he knew it he had reached the girls who were concentrating on adding the tallies on their wrists up. The shorter girl looked up at him with questioning eyes, he tipped his bottle at her in a salute.
"Hi!" the goddess before him spoke as she swayed in her spot, "I'm Kagome! And I'm better then Kikyo!" She giggled while leaning on his arm for support.
"Kikyo Mori?" Inuyasha yelled over the music and she nodded her head furiously.
"She's a bitch!" She gasped and her hand flew to her mouth in shock, "I didn't mean that! Well...maybe I did! But...that's OK!" she giggled more and accepted the overflowing glass of beer Miroku handed to her. He gave him a questioning look that he ignored.
"No, you're right! She is a bitch," Kagome looked up at him from her beer and smiled, a shy but seductive smile that Inuyasha gladly returned with one of his own. "She's my ex."
"No!" he nodded at her out burst, "How did she ever manage to snag such a winner like you!" she blushed furiously at her slip and he just smiled.
"I asked myself that today!" he clinked his bottle of tequila with her beer and they both took giant gulps, "care to dance?' Kagome nodded before passing off her beer to her other raven haired friend, who was busy flirting it up with Miroku. Inuyasha took her hand in his, ignoring the tingles that ran up his arm at her touch.
Turning her around so her back was against his chest, he trailed his hands down her sides to rest of her hips. He smirked at the small shudder that ran through her body as they began to sway to the music. He allowed the groan to slip passed his lips as she began to grind her ass against his groin. Gripping her hips he leaned forward, his lips brushing against the junction of her neck and shoulders. She gasped and he did it again, this time running his tongue up her neck. Kagome groaned allowing her foggy head to fall back on his shoulder while they continued to sway to the music, going much slower then the beat as he continued to kiss along her shoulders and neck. Twisting her around in his arms, he pulled her close to him, making sure every possible inch of them touched as he ground his hips against her, delighting in the surprised gasp as his aroused member came in contact with her.
"Your....so...so big!" she squeaked blushing furiously. Inuyasha smirked and continued to sway with her. After a few songs they headed back to the bar to find both Sango and Rin missing. Frowning Kagome picked up his abandoned tequila bottle and began to take large gulps from it.
Stupid good for nothing friends leaving me here when I'm so in need of a friend. Hmmm but this cutie is still here. hehehehe
"Why don't we get out of here!" Inuyasha looked down started at her, blinking a few times he nodded and she all but dragged him out of the bar.

Kagome fumbled with the key card, frowning down at the little red light as she passed the card through yet another time. Growling, Inuyasha nearly shoved her out of the way, swishing around the last few sips of tequila in his bottle. Taking the key card from her, Kagome stole the tequila and quickly downed the rest, followed by a high pitch giggle. Cursing Inuyasha dropped the key card and bent down to retrieve it, only to lose his balance and fall forward onto Kagome, who only laughed some more as he brought her down too. Inuyasha attacked her lips with his own as he found himself on top of her, while feeling around for the key card. Showering kisses along her jaw and neck she moaned and arched her back, rubbing her breasts against him.
"Fucking card where are you," he mumbled between kisses.
"Oh...this card?" Kagome held up the small piece of plastic and Inuyasha growled before yanking it away from her. Struggling to his feet, he straightened himself and passed the card through the slot, turning the light green. Shoving open the door he grabbed Kagome by the wrists and pulled her to her feet, and flesh up against his chest. Shoving hands into her hair he kissed her with a lip bruising force as he walked them backwards into the dark hotel room. Kagome squealed as they tipped backwards onto the bed and she found herself on top of him.
Straddling his lap Kagome pulled her halter top over her head then helped Inuyasha out of his button down shirt; by ripping it open. Inuyasha flinched at the sound of scattering buttons but was quickly distracted as Kagome unfastened her bra. His amber eyes lit with a hungry desire as he sat up and brought a clawed hand up to cup one perfectly round globe. He moaned in appreciation at the sudden intake of air as he suckled on her nipple. Kagome held his head to her chest as she slowly rocked her hips against him. Groaning he pushed Kagome away to stand and finished removing their clothes. Kagome continued to wiggle out of her skirt as Inuyasha laid back along the bed fully naked. She was working off her first heel when she paused, eyes wide.
"Are you OK?" he propped himself up on his elbows and eyed her suspiciously. She shook her head, hand flying up to her mouth.
"Oh God!" she raced/limped to the bathroom with her one heel in her hand and proceeded to retch. Inuyasha's ears flattened against his skull before flopping back down on the bed with a sigh. Twenty minutes later Kagome, clad in her one shoe, came stumbling out to find a passed out hanyou. With a shrug she flopped down next to him and was out for the rest of the night.

riiiinnnnggg rrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggggg
What clearly was her cellphone ringing sounded more like nails on a chalkboard in Kagome's head. With a groan she leaned over the edge of the bed, eyes still closed, she rummaged around her purse to find the annoying piece or technology. Flipping it open she muttered a groggy hello while making contact with the pillow again.
"Kagome?! Thank God your OK! I've been worried sick, you never came home last night, and you always come home! I was about ready to call the cops, you weren't answering your phone all last night," Kagome suppressed a groan as Hojo continued to ramble, adding to her already pounding headache. Stretching out on her back she noticed two things at once; one she was completely naked and two she was covered in silky silver sheets. Wait...that's..that's not the sheets.
"Kagome, where are you?" taking a hold of the silver perfect Kagome started to follow it along to the other side of the bed.
"I'm uh..." she continued following the trail until finally she noticed two dog ears poking out of the hair, that was attached to a head, that was also attached to a man's body. A very naked man's body. "Oh shit," without thinking Kagome gulped and flipped the phone shut, eyes wide in horror.
