PINK “Get this Party Started!”

 

YOU HAVE ONE NEW EMAIL!!

 

From: Miroku

 

To: Sango

 

Subject: Kagome's welcome party

 

Everything is all set for tonight. Just get Kagome to come by the hotel bar some time after eight. Everyone will be waiting for her there.

 

Kagome won't know what hit her. We are going to get her so wasted!

 

From the smart, sexy, fantastic and oh-so-talented

 

Miroku

 

P.S. I definitely think tonight would be perfect for you to wear the outfit I bought you for your birthday.

 

YOU HAVE ONE NEW EMAIL!!

 

From: Sango

 

To: Miroku

 

Subject Re: Kagome's welcome party

 

Don't worry Miroku, I've already convinced Kagome to come. We'll be there around eight thirty. Make sure anyone who is going to be late comes no earlier than nine just to make sure they don't ruin the surprise.

 

Oh, and about the so-called `outfit' you bought me for my birthday. No, I will not be wearing it you perverted idiot. If I was too, it would be just as convenient for me to just show up naked. It would pretty much have the same affect.

 

…I still can't believe you actually think I'll ever wear it.

 

Sango

 

P.S. Since when the hell has anyone ever called you smart, fantastic, sexy or talented?

 

~*~

 

“Skull, skull, skull, skull, skull, skull, skull!!”

 

Kagome drained her sixth shot of tequila of the night and slammed the empty glass back down on the bar along with Sango and Miroku. Cheers erupted behind the trio as the other guests of the party went wild with applause.

 

“Go, Kagome!! Who would have thought that you could drink that many shots in such a short amount of time?” Ayame raved over the deafening noise.

 

Miroku downed another shot then pulled Sango and Kagome into his arms, “Ladies, this is gonna be one hell of a night.”

 

Chuckling at the perverted chef's antics, Kagome hailed the bartender for another drink herself.

 

“What'll it be girls?” Koga, the wolf-demon bartender that Kagome had met last night, chuckled, “Or should I just give you free reign across the bar?”

 

“I'm in the mood for a bourbon and coke.” Kagome turned towards Sango. She simply shrugged her shoulders,

 

“Why not make it two? Its not often I get to party on my bosses charge account.”

 

Several drinks later both women decided it was time for some fun. Knocking back one last shot Kagome and Sango made their way through the teeming crowd of guests and headed over to the dance floor that had been set up especially for tonight.

 

“Let's show these people how it's done!”

 

Letting the music wash over her, Kagome began to soak in the song and let her body take over. Swivelling their hips Kagome and Sango began to pick up a steady rhythm as they began to dance. Twisting and turning Kagome leapt in the air and twirled around to the song.

 

Sango was beating out her own moves too. Raising her hands, she twisted around on the spot them dropped to the ground before spinning back up into a jump. Both women moved from side to side and shimmied up and down, lifting their arms above their heads and entwining their fingers together.

 

This was exactly the sort of fun that Kagome felt she needed, and it was a great way for her to just relax and socialise with her fellow co-workers.

 

Dancing for the next hour or so, both women decided to was time for a break. They made their way off the dance floor and headed back over to the bar.

 

Koga grinned, “What's your poison this time?”

 

“I'll have a vodka and lemonade.”

 

Sango was in the mood for something a little more flavourful, “Give me a Cock Sucking Cowboy.”

 

“Sorry, I don't swing that way.” Koga teased, turning around to make the requested drinks.

 

“I don't think that joke will ever get old.” Kagome shook her head, “Boys never truly grow up.”

 

Sango sniggered, “So true.”

 

Koga placed their drinks on the bar, “Here you guys go. Enjoy!”

 

“Thanks, Koga!”

 

Turning back to the party, Sango and Kagome decided to head over to the crowded both that Miroku and a bunch of their other friends were occupying.

 

“Read it and weep guys!” Miroku spread his cards out over the table, “Full house!”

 

Groans erupted around the table, “What? Not again!” Hiten complained. “That's the third time tonight.”

 

Miroku chuckled as he collected his winnings, “I guess I just have the luck of the draw.”

 

“Care to put your money where your mouth is?”

 

All eyes turned to the two women as they joined their table. “You think you can keep up with the big boys?” Bankotsu—the manager of Hotel Takahashi's infamous restaurant—questioned, obviously sceptical.

 

“Oh, no? Play with the big, bad boys? How scary!” Kagome sneered sarcastically, turning towards Sango, “Whatever shall we do?”

 

Sango shook her head in mock surrender, “I guess we just have to pray that they go easy on us so we can keep up with the fantastic skills.”

 

Both women whipped out a fifty dollar bill and slapped it on the table. “That enough for the next round?” They asked.

 

“You've both got balls, I'll say that much.” Bankotsu grudgingly admitted, “Let's see you what skills you girls have.”

 

Everyone made room as Sango and Kagome sat down at the table. Shippo shuffled the deck of cards then dealt them out to the current players; Miroku, Bankotsu, Kagome, Sango and himself. Hiten decided to sit this one out.

 

“You sure you want to sit this one out?” Monten asked his brother, standing besides the booth due to his size.

 

Hiten watched as everyone began formulating a plan in their heads, “I want to see what Sango and Kagome have to offer. Sango hardly ever plays with us on our poker nights and Kagome's new, so I haven't seen either of them play before.” He smirked, “I can tell that fireworks are going to fly this round!”

 

Kagome looked at the cards she had been dealt. She hadn't lost a poker game yet and she refused to do so now. Taking a sip of her drink, she turned towards Sango and gave her a small wink.

 

The former boxer understood and nodded. Like what had happened just now, no one ever took them seriously—however they were used to it. To compensate, Kagome and Sango had their own code for playing any time they were together. That way, it was highly probable that one of them would win.

 

Some called it cheating; they preferred to call it equalling the odds.

 

Twenty minutes, (and numerous drinks) later Miroku threw his hands up in frustration. No one had any money left to gamble and Sango and Kagome weren't willing to let the game involve clothes. (It was a public place after all)

 

“Fuck this, you guys are just two good.” Shippo grumbled.

 

Bankotsu searched though his wallet then chucked it on the table, “I'm out too, man. Totally broke”

 

“I can't believe we got beaten by a couple of girls!”

 

Both women smirked and scooped up their winnings—dividing it between the two of them. Hiten whistled.

 

“That's some loot you girls won yourself there. You guys could play pro.”

 

Kagome grinned, “I wish. But we should definitely do this again some time.”

 

“There's always staff poker night.” Sango reminded her.

 

“Awesome.”

 

Miroku moaned. “You had better go easy on us next time; otherwise we'll all be broke by the end of the month.”

 

“Miroku, you're broke now!”

 

“Oh, yeah.”

 

Bankotsu raised his glass, “Here's to a new era at Hotel Takahashi! May Kagome enjoy it here as much as we do!”

 

The table erupted in cheers as everyone laughed and grabbed their drinks in toast, “To new beginnings!”

 

“I swear you guys are going to be the death of me,” Kagome commented as she downed what had to be here fifteenth drink that night.

 

“Speaking of which,” Sango suddenly snatched Shippo's drink from his hand, “I'm pretty sure you aren't twenty one, Shippo.”

 

The teen let out an indignant snort, “This coming from the woman who was smoking at fifteen?”

 

“He has a point there, Sango.” Miroku spoke up.

 

“I know. I just felt like another drink and was too lazy to head over to the bar and get one myself.”

 

Shippo groaned as he watched Sango skull his beer. “I would have given you a sip, you know.” He muttered.

 

“But what fun would that have been then?” she replied.

 

Placing her empty glass back on the table Kagome turned towards Sango. “I don't about you but I could use some fresh air.”

 

“Is it alright if I stay here a little longer?” Sango eyed Miroku, “Someone still owes me an arm wrestle.”

 

“I don't remember agreeing to that.”

 

“You just did.”

 

Kagome let out a small chuckle and slid her way out off the booth. Miroku was fighting a losing battle. No one got out of an arm wrestle with Sango once she decreed it.

 

Sure enough, as she made her way across the room Kagome could hear cheers as everyone watched Miroku be overpowered into submission. “Gah!! Sango!! My arm is attached you know!!”

 

It really made Kagome happy to feel that she finally had a place where she belonged. Though everyone at uni had been perfectly kind to her, she didn't really fit in with any one. Most girls thought she was too crude and outspoke, not to mention that she didn't have the same passion for clothes and shopping that they did. The guys weren't much better, however Kagome had to admit that that was probably due to the fact that they were too intimidated to try seeing as by her second year she was dating Inuyasha. A possessive dog demon isn't really someone you want to get on bad terms with.

 

Making her way over to the balcony a strong pair of hands suddenly grasped her hips, “Mind if I join you?”
