I still dedicate this chapter to InuGrrrl an author who has amazing stories that make me cry, make me happy and get rid of my writer's block! LOL

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIDN'T ERASE HIS MEMORY!?” Sango shouted at her groaning friend.

 

“I mean, I didn't get the chance to erase his memory!” Kagome shouted back with equal anger. Her friend just didn't know when to quit! She had been at this whole scream-at-the-top-of-her-lungs thing for the past six hours!

 

“Kagome, what in the world has gotten into you lately? It's starting to sound like you're losing your touch on this job.” Rin asked seriously concerned about her friend's well-being.

 

Sango was no help on the matter. “LOSING HER TOUCH!? RIN, SHE'S LOST HER TOTAL GRIP ON THIS THING!”

 

“I have not!” Kagome retorted. “The idiot stole my purse before I coul-”

 

“InuYasha stole your purse!?” Her two friends repeated in unison.

 

Kagome laid her head in her hands, cursing herself for letting that little piece of information slip. “Listen, he told me I could have it back… I just need to meet him at the bar tonight... again.”

 

Ayame walked into the room with a box of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and smiled. “You know from what I've heard, I have a feeling this guy's got the hots for you Kagome.” She knew this was the honest to God truth, InuYasha had never acted liked this before, he had it bad for this woman and Ayame could sense it.

 

Sango and Rin turned to eyes their blushing friend, “Is that so? Well what does the infamous Kagome Higurashi think of that huh?”

 

Kagome put on a face of ignorance, “I dunno… I don't care either! I made it perfectly clear to him that I wasn't interested!”

 

“Obviously not if she keeps going back to meet him.” Sango whispered to a nodding Rin.

 

“So you're going to meet him tonight only to retrieve you purse?” Ayame asked, sincerely interested in Kagome's feelings for her band leader.

 

Kagome sighed, taking a chocolate éclair from the box on the desk. “No… I'm supposed to go with him to some party.”

 

“Some party? He didn't tell you it was for the debut of his new CD?” Ayame asked, quickly stuffing a glazed doughnut into her mouth, knowing it was too late to stop herself.

 

Rin raised a brow, “Yami… you sure know a lot about this band of his. What are you a stalker?”

 

Ayame glanced around nervously, “Y-yeah… that's it! I-I blame it on television!”

 

“You're going with him to a party. Ain't that sweet. What's next!? The honeymoon!?” Sango scoffed sarcastically.

 

Kagome looked up at her friends and smirked, a mischievous gleam in her eyes. “I'm not going with InuYasha alone… I was instructed to bring friends. And guess what, suckers? It's your lucky day.”

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

Ayame panicked, if the girl's found out about her being in the band, she was screwed… and if the guys found out she was with Heart Breakers, she was screwed even more! This was bad! This was verrrry very bad! “Girls… I really don't think this is a good idea. If InuYasha already knows Kagome's with HB…”

 

“Ayame don't worry. I won't let InuYasha know that you guys are with Heart Breakers. I promise.” Kagome smiled through the mirror.

 

“Yeah Yami, just play it cool.” Rin smiled, patting her fidgety friend on the back.

 

Sango huffed, slouching angrily in the front passenger seat. “Why do I have to wear this thing!? You know damn well I hate wearing dresses Kag!”

 

Kagome glanced over at her best friend, she was wearing a tight black salsa dress with red ribbons that zigzagged across the front. It was one of the prettiest dresses in wardrobes! “Sango come on, you know you like it.”

 

“I know I like it! But why do I have to wear it!?”

 

“Because it makes you look sophisticated.” Kagome smiled proudly before turning to glare at the complaining girl. “And if we all have to wear dresses then so do you.”

 

Sango laughed nervously. “Oh… right…” She had completely forgotten that none of them ever enjoyed wearing those girly-girl things; but the job description stated that Heart Breaker agents had to look and act like ladies. One of the main reasons Sango rarely ever did her own missions.

 

“I think this dress is cute in its own little way.” Rin said, examining the long silky robin's egg blue outfit.

 

Ayame giggled, “That's because it will make you stand out.”

 

“What's wrong with that? You won't be noticed in that thing.” Rin pointed to the short plain black dress Ayame was wearing.

 

`Good… that's my intentions…'

 

“I think Kagome's dress is the coolest!” Rin giggled, “Is it just me or are you trying to impress someone?”

 

Kagome looked down at her sparkly red halter outfit, the back of it trailed slightly and it frilled at the bottom like Sango's. Maybe she was trying to impress InuYasha?

 

“I'm doing no such thing!” L I A R.

 

The car finally came to a stop by the curb of the Dokushin Seikatsu and the girls exited the vehicle to find InuYasha and a few other male companions waiting for them.

 

“Hello Miss, I'm glad to see you decided to join me tonight.” He smirked, loving the way Kagome childishly glared at him.

 

“Like I had a choice.” Kagome grumbled.

 

InuYasha took this time to examine the `friends' she had brought along, two of them were eyeing him with grins and the other was fidgeting fretfully. An eyebrow rose as he realized that he knew her from somewhere. And after evaluating that the make-up was designed to fool him, he said her name.

 

“Ayame? Is that you?”

 

All eyes turned to the loud and nervously laughing girl who was now scratching her head. “Hiya Yash! Sorry I couldn't make it to practice today… I was getting ready for the party! AHAHAHA!!!”

 

Kagome waved her hands in front of her face, “Hold on!? You're in IKSMA EEDBRAY!?”

 

“I'm… uh… sorta the bass…” She smiled sheepishly.

 

“Yami, why didn't you tell us!?” Rin gasped. “I can't believe you work with hot guys and didn't say a thing!!!” She squealed, she was so not cut out to be a Heart Breaker.

 

Kagome rolled her eyes and looked at Sango who didn't seem too worried about that matter right now. She was too busy glaring at Miroku who was eying her.

 

“So Ayame, I'm going to guess that you're not a masseuse then huh? You're really a Heart Breaker's Agent?” InuYasha smirked.

 

Ayame rubbed her arm, “No… I'm just a secretary.”

 

“And what about you two? You're Heart Breaker agents too am I right?”

 

Rin and Sango glanced over at Kagome for help, but she too was in a bit of a pickle. Rin spoke up first giving the boy the peace sign. “Rin Odokeru computer genius and this is my partner in crime Sango Sunahama!” She pointed dramatically to a timidly waving Sango.

 

“Hello Sango, Rin.” InuYasha smirked. “You all apparently know me as InuYasha Tategami. These are my band members… excluding Ayame.” The woman started fidgeting with her fingers again.

 

“I'm Koga the back-up guitarist.” Bowed the dark man, he grabbed Kagome's hand kissed the back of it. “Nice to meet you.”

 

Kagome and InuYasha both glared at the man as he returned to his place of leaning against the very expensive looking car. InuYasha for hitting on a girl he obviously was there with and Kagome for the creep kissing her hand. Nobody touched her!

 

“I'm Shippo! I'm the whiz at the keyboard!” Replied the youngest and adorable looking-boy.

 

“OH HE'S SO KAWAII!!!” Rin coo-ed, making the little boy blush.

 

Sango suddenly gasped and pointed at Miroku. “I know you!”

 

Kagome eyed the young man; he was kinda cute and somewhat dashing… and somehow also dreadfully familiar. “Oh! I remember him too! He's the guy from that one party that was thrown under the Eiffel tower last year! ”

 

Sango was glaring viciously at this point. “Yeah when he groped my ass! Or were you the idiot who tried to fondle my breast?”

 

Miroku bowed formally, “One and the same Miss Sango. I'm the drummer and it's a pleasure to re-meet you.”

 

She gave him a sarcastic smile, “Pleasure is all yours of course.”

 

Kagome laughed, not having missed one second of the interesting by-play between this man and her best friend. Sango had a wee crush.

 

InuYasha rolled his eyes, unimpressed by his friend's actions, before looking back at Kagome; she was gorgeous in that outfit and rather sexy too. “So Miss Heart Breaker, are you going to tell me your name now or do I have to pull another heads or tails?” He asked, handing her the black purse that was stolen yesterday night.

 

Kagome blushed, taking the bag. She had totally forgotten about that stupid thing! Her eyes had been on InuYasha ever since she had left the car, he looked so god-like with that silver hair and his eyes were almost captivating. His muscles clearly showed through the tight black tank-top he was in and the baggy blue cargo shorts stated rocker. Maybe it was a bad idea to get all dressed up… Kagome wondered, noticing that the other guys were in old clothes as well.

 

“You know it's polite to stay on earth when someone is talking to you.” Sango whispered to her best friend, making her jump. This was all too good. Here she was thinking Kagome Higurashi was immune to emotion and wham! This hot sexy son of a gun comes around the corner!

 

`Too bad he's engaged.'

 

“M-my name is Kagome Higurashi.” She replied, noticing InuYasha's shocked expression. “What!?”

 

“I actually wasn't expecting you to tell me your name.” He admitted shyly, “I had this whole new plan set out to steal that purse again.”

 

“Oh my Gods you're great!” Kagome laughed, quickly covering her mouth with her hands. She cleared her throat after a while and walked back to her car, a giant blush covering her face. “Excuse me, I think we should get to the party now ladies.”

 

“Yes, it is getting rather late. And you know how all those lovely ladies tend to get when I'm not there…” Miroku trailed off perversely.

 

“I call shotgun!” Shippo cried out, rushing to the door.

 

Koga rolled his eyes, “Somebody save me…”

 

“I guess we'll follow you then Yash.” Ayame smiled, pushing Sango and Rin back into the car.

 

“Yeah sure.” InuYasha replied. As Sango opened the passenger door, he noticed Kagome was repeatedly banging her head against the steering wheel. He smirked; somehow he had a feeling that she was pretty great too… in her own stubborn little way… maybe he'd get a chance to actually know her tonight.

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

The party was a huge success! Hundreds of fans and company representatives wandered around the large club it was being hosted at; awaiting the arrival of the biggest band in Tokyo. There was an overly-energetic DJ, dozens of streaming colorful lights, hundreds of dancing girls chanting names of the members from the band they adored and of course huge intimidating looking security guards to control out-of-control matters.

 

“YOU DIDN'T TELL ME THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HERE WITH YOU TONIGHT!!!” Kagome screamed at InuYasha who now uncovered his ringing ears.

 

“Dammit wench! Would you mind lowering it down!?” InuYasha shouted back. So much for getting to know her better… she'd never want to talk to him after this. Upon asking little Miss Kagome to attend the party, he never exactly told her that she was his date to it… and she wasn't too pleased with the idea.

 

Sango and Rin sighed, knowing that InuYasha had just dug his own grave; and the members of IKSMA EEDBRAY sighed as well, also knowing that their leader was done for. He had a certain habit of pulling crazy stunts like this one and they were always destined for trouble.

 

Kagome began pacing back and forth back stage, her arms flailing about as InuYasha tried to console her. “Kagome, come on! I forgot to ask you last night to be my date to this! I'm sorry!”

 

“Damn right you'd better be sorry! Why the hell couldn't Kikyo come with you!?”

 

“Because Kikyo doesn't even like the band! She thinks it's a total waste of my time! And she's not here; she went with her parents to Europe on a business trip! She won't be back until Friday!”

 

Kagome turned and glared at the man, pointing a finger at his chest. “Is that why you have this sudden infatuation with me!? Because she's not here!? I oughta call her up right now and tell her what you've been doing you no good arrogant bastard!”

 

“Go ahead! You'd only be doing me a favor!” InuYasha grinned, “You know how I feel about her anyway! And when you do break up this whole engagement between us, I'll be stealing that purse of yours full-time until I win you over!”

 

Rin and Sango bit their bottom lips as InuYasha just bluntly stated he had a thing for Kagome and was willing to do anything to get her.

 

“He's doomed…”

 

“Yep.”

 

Kagome blushed, miraculously still able to glare at the boy who was now awkwardly brushing away his bangs. How could he have let that slip!? Dammit!

 

Koga and Miroku eyed their red friend, he was such an idiot.

 

Shippo was lazily slouched in a large blue sofa playing his Gameboy, seeing no merit in what the others were arguing about. Besides the good parts were already over: Kagome found out InuYasha liked her and InuYasha was labeled the village idiot! What more could someone ask for!?

 

“Ten minutes until you appear IKSMA!” An announcer called from behind Shippo.

 

Kagome sighed, looking up at InuYasha who was still finding random objects to gawk at. “Alright, I'll appear out there with you.” She said finally, quoting the word with her fingers. “But I want to change out of this ridiculous outfit.”

 

“Yeah us too…” Sango and Rin smiled.

 

“Count me in.” Ayame winked.

 

InuYasha smirked, “Whatever.”

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

All was set, InuYasha and Kagome were partnered up behind the stage along with Ayame and Koga, Shippo and a still coo-ing Rin and Miroku and a grumbling Sango.

 

It was all Kagome's fault she was stuck with this stupid hormonal crazed lunatic! She had made her promise in the dressing room that she would give Miroku a chance, seeing as she cornered her about liking the guy. And when asked about whether Kagome herself would make a move on InuYasha her reply was: I'm not interested I'm just doing him a favor!

 

“Lousy friend…”

 

Kagome had to admit, she felt much more comfortable in what she had on now. Tight dark blue jeans and a white halter top with tennis shoes. Dresses could all burn in the fiery depths of hell!

 

“You ready?” InuYasha asked, realizing that he liked the way she clung to his arm.

 

Kagome sighed, straightening herself up as the curtain rose. “Too late to turn back now isn't it?”

 

He laughed. It was definitely way too late for anything anymore.

 

The couples began to walk out as cameras flashed and the crowd screamed out to their band. The loud music had ended as InuYasha and Kagome took the stand where a microphone was situated. Kagome was horror struck, she had never seen so many screaming fans before and she was almost heartbroken when InuYasha reclaimed his arm and left her to hold onto nothing. Immediately she grabbed for it again, though missing by a long shot, captured his hand instead.

 

InuYasha smirked at her, she was too cute. He cleared his throat and began speaking out to the fans. “How's everybody tonight?”

 

Screams came as the response before Miroku ran up to the microphone, “And all you lovely ladies out there!” Now they were defining screams.

 

InuYasha rolled his eyes and pushed the drummer back to the side. “I wanna thank you all for coming out here tonight and supporting our new CD!” He began, receiving more screams and whistles. “I'm figuring that you also know our band name has changed for publicity status. IKSMA EEDBRAY is such a pain in the ass to understand ain't it?” More screams and camera flashes.

 

The leader looked over at Ayame who was smirking, “You can all thank Ayame for this great change… seeing as she never liked it in the first place.” Everybody started clapping as Ayame turned beet red. “Also, our producers… because they forced Miroku to agree with the whole change, it was his name to begin with… stupid smart-ass lecher.” The girls in the audience started laughing as Miroku placed a hand over his face in embarrassment.

 

InuYasha grinned, glancing down at Kagome who was still blankly staring out into the audience. “And now to reveal the cover of our new CD, I'd like my lovely date Kagome Higurashi to assist me in this. What do you guys think?” Kagome was suddenly snapped out of her daze when the crowd began chanting her name.

 

Kagome pulled on InuYasha's hair to bring him eye level with her. “Wait!? What am I doing!?”

 

“Just go over to the stand and uncover the poster.” InuYasha instructed, pointing over to the large cloth-covered board on the other side of the stage. Kagome glared back up at him. “I don't want to!”

 

The crowd continued chanting her name and InuYasha smirked, “Looks like you don't gotta choice.”

 

“InuYasha! I don't want to do this!” She panicked, her eyes frantically darting back and forth from the large and overly-hyped up crowd back to his calming god-like face.

 

“Don't worry…” He smiled, taking the back of her hand and kissing it lightly. “You'll do fine.”

 

Kagome blushed, was she supposed to be angry or glad that he just did that!? She didn't have time to think it over because her feet suddenly had a mind of their won; she walked over to the dark blue velvet blanket and tore it off the cardboard poster.

 

“Introducing the new IKSMA EEDBRAY… and the official band: Sinful Remedy!” InuYasha shouted. The entire club was now in an uproar as the unveiling of the new CD and name was concluded and the music began playing again, the crowd dancing and cheering while the band members made their way onto the dance floor as well.

 

Kagome smiled, examining the CD cover, her eyes focused on the main man in the middle. InuYasha walked over to her and held out his hand. “That was some great performing you did there.” He smirked.

 

She gave him a flat uncaring glare. “Oh shut up! I'm happy for your successful career, now I'd like to take my girls with me seeing as it's late and I need to get back home to feed my boys.”

 

InuYasha glanced onto the dance floor where Kagome's girls were enjoying themselves. “Looks like you'll be staying here longer than you expected.”

 

“Oh! I think not!” She glared, “I'll drag their asses outta here if I have to!”

 

InuYasha smiled, grabbing her hand. “Come on Heart Breaker, stay for a while. What's the worst that could happen?”

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

Kagome hiccupped again as she took another sip from her martini and bit the olive from the toothpick. “You know! I don't usually get drunk like this!” She stated, giving InuYasha a weird look. “Life's just been soooooooo stressful lately!” she threw her arms up in the air to emphasize her point.

 

InuYasha smirked at her; this was the funniest most laid back version of Kagome he had seen all night. He was kind of liking it too. “Yeah I bet, with you being a secret agent, things have gotta get a bit crazy.”

 

Kagome shook her head and smiled, “Not really… I just make things harder than they seem.”

 

The man laughed, yep she really was something this Kagome. Sango and Rin had tired themselves out and were gone by ten and it was already midnight. The only people who remained in the club were the band members now and Kagome and a few janitors.

 

Miroku and Ayame smiled, occasionally glancing over at the silent bar to see InuYasha and Kagome laughing. Koga on the other hand, seemed to be all pouty and Shippo was off playing his Gameboy again.

 

“I think they make a cute couple.” Ayame giggled, looking over to Miroku who nodded.

 

“Yes, they do seem to be enjoying themselves.”

 

Koga snorted, “That idiot's got a fiancé. He shouldn't even be anywhere near Kagome!”

 

Ayame raised a brow and poured the upset man a glass of white wine. “I think you should just appreciate what you already have.”

 

“And that would be?”

 

“Me.” She winked, making him blush.

 

Kagome gulped down the last of her martini and sighed, “I think Sango and Rin hate me…”

 

InuYasha laughed, “No they don't.”

 

“Yeah they do! They hate it when I go off on them about how men… don't care about anybody but themselves! Which even I know isn't true.” She said in a slightly high squeak, looking with one eye into her empty glass. “My brother Souta isn't a bad guy… but he left me after mommy died… something about finding the love of his life at age seventeen.”

 

InuYasha frowned, maybe he shouldn't be hearing this from a drunk Kagome… he felt like he was taking advantage of her. But the girl continued on none the less.

 

“Who woulda thought too… my little brother finding the love of his life before me? That was just rediuloos… redicoolas… you get it right?” InuYasha nodded a small grin forming on his face.

 

“And I-I told him it wouldn't last… but no… he didn't he didn't listen to me! And you know what happened?”

 

InuYasha shrugged, “She broke his heart?”

 

“No! They got married and had three kids and are living happily ever after!” She smiled, placing her glass back onto the counter. “Can I can I have another martini thingy please?”

 

InuYasha smirked, “Let's not… I think it's time to take you home.”

 

She raised one eyebrow and gave him a lopsided smile, “Okee te.” Thank God she was a friendly drunk.

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

After a long time spent on trying to decipher a drunks girl's directions about where Kagome lived and what key opened the apartment door, InuYasha finally managed to safely return her to her home. However, opening a metal door to two large purebred dogs wasn't something he was expecting. The second the door was opened, a giant white Akita and grey Husky pounced on the poor band leader and pinned him to the tiled floor, lavishing his face with slobbery kisses.

 

Kagome laughed and called them inside, they however wouldn't budge. They only stayed out in the hallway wagging their tails as InuYasha continued to pet them. Finally InuYasha himself was invited inside and the two dogs followed.

 

The drunk Kagome dropped her purse by the front door and collapsed on the black leather sofa in the living room. InuYasha looked around; the apartment was huge for just one person living in it! Nice wood floors… a balcony… but then again… he remembered the two giant dogs. Yeah, that's probably why there was so much space.

 

Kagome glanced over at InuYasha who was still being attacked by her dogs. “You know… those two boys hate everybody I bring into this apartment. It took them forever just to get used to Sango and Rin.”

 

InuYasha grinned, “Guess I'm just a dog person.”

 

Kagome shrugged, kicking off her heels before she was swept up into strong warm arms. She gasped, “Wh-what are you doing!?”

 

 

“I'm putting you to bed. I can't leave here until I know that you'll be safe.” InuYasha explained, “Where is your room exactly?” Kagome pointed to the hallway and the man soon found her room and placed her on the large, cozy bed.

 

Kagome blinked her eyes to focus better. When she looked up at Inuyasha, he was watching her intently. She knew some of the stuff she said tonight was a bit personal... though she couldn't really remember what she had said, but she knew InuYasha had gone out of his way to help her home.

 

“Thanks InuYasha, I've never really done that before and I can't really think right now but I am sure I should thank you.” She smiled.

 

“Have you ever been kissed before?”

 

Kagome was startled…had she? “Uhh…”

 

InuYasha raised his eyebrows, “Don't you know?”

 

“Why do you want to know?”

 

There was a long pause before InuYasha sighed, leaning down to capture her lips in a short, chaste kiss. It took her breath away.

 

When he pulled away, she said the first thing on her mind, “Did you do that to educate me or on the off chance that I won't remember tonight tomorrow?”

 

InuYasha could not answer that. He had no idea why he had said it or why he had kissed her. Holy shit he had actually kissed her. This was Kagome; the cute, temperamental, Heart Breaker agent that he had just met! He couldn't explain what the hell was wrong to himself, much less a drunk woman.

 

He sighed again, “Don't worry about it. Just get some sleep...”

 

Kagome threw a maroon pillow at him, “Don't tell me what to do!” She looked around suspiciously and began to whisper. “I don't take kindly to orders…”

 

InuYasha laughed, grabbing the pillow and smothering her with it playfully. Kagome giggled, pulling him on top of her to gain the power; but he grabbed her wrists and forced them behind her head.

 

Smiling down at her, he leaned down to kiss her again. Reason be damned! He couldn't resist…it felt too right. He caught her scent and it drove him wild. Man, who was this Kagome!? More importantly, what was wrong with him? He had a fiancé for Gods sake!

 

`Oh shit…'

 

He groaned and pulled himself off the bed, “I'll uh… see you around Kagome.”

 

She smiled content in her drunken state, “Okay bye bye.”

 

InuYasha looked back at the girl, smiled and left the bedroom, walking into the living room again where the two boys were sitting with their food bowls in the teeth. He smirked and patted them both on their heads, reading their collars.

 

“So you are Akitainu… and you are Hasukii?” He asked, pointing to the two dogs.

 

They barked and continued eating. “Alright, so I fed you and we're friends… but if she already fed you today and you conned me into feeding you again, we're going to have problems.”

 

He received two whimpers and turned to give the room once last look around before closing the large metal door of apartment 178.

 

“Goodnight Kagome…”
