Chapter 12:What?! A Date?!

InuYasha and Kagome came down for breakfast the next morning. This time an old man was sitting at the table, with Sota in a highchair, and Kagome's mom fixing breakfast.

 

“Kagome, who's the old guy?” InuYasha whispered in her ear. “Oh, that's my grandpa.”

 

InuYasha gave her a blank look. “So, let me get this straight. I've stayed here for two whole days, plus the days I've come over to your house to play, and in that time I've never met your grandpa that actually lives with you.” Kagome looked around a bit in thought. “Yep.”

 

Kagome's grandfather looked up from his newspaper. As soon as he saw InuYasha a big grin appeared on his face. “Why, hello there. You must be InuYasha.” He laughed. “Of course, there aren't many children with dog ears around here.”

 

“Yeah. That's me.” InuYasha replied the blank look still on his face. “So I haven't met you until now because…”

 

“Oh, that. I've been very busy with the shrine. It seems that the dust just keeps coming back.” He answered rubbing the back of his gray head. InuYasha looked to Kagome for an explanation. “My grandpa is the keeper of our family shrine. He's always sweeping the porch or dusting the storage room.”

 

“Kagome's told me so much about you. It's nice to finally meet you.” Kagome's grandpa said with a warm smile. InuYasha and Kagome sit down at the table. “Yeah, nice to meet you too.”

 

“Good morning. Eggs and bacon for breakfast.” Kagome's mother chirped from the kitchen. Shippo sat in a highchair also since he was so small. “Do me have to sit in this? I feel like baby.” He whined looking over at Sota being fed by his mom. “Shippo, you're not a baby. You're just not tall enough to sit in a regular chair.” Kagome's mom explained with a smile.

 

“We should get going soon.” InuYasha stated through a mouth full of bacon. Kagome sighed. “InuYasha, what did I say about talking with your mouth full?” He swallowed. “Who are you? My mother?” Kagome stood from the table. “Well then let's go.” She started to pull him from the table. “Hey, I'm not done yet!” InuYasha yelled in protest.

 

“Well you're the one who said we should be going.” Kagome said now dragging him out the door with her backpack slung over her arm. “Bye Mom!”

 

“Bye sweetheart! Have a good day at school you two!” Her mother called back. “Bye Kagome!” Shippo shouted happily waving at them.

 

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

“We had to get here this early because...” InuYasha complained at the circular lunch table. They had gotten there very early. So early they had to wait in the cafeteria until they were allowed into their classrooms. “You were the one who said we should get going.” Kagome countered crossing her arms.

 

“I didn't mean right that second!” InuYasha screamed. “Get over it!” Sango yelled in annoyance. “We're here and you can wait until classes start, okay.”

 

“Or are you really that eager to go to class InuYasha?” Miroku asked putting his hand to his chin. “Feh. I hate school. I wish that school would die a painful death!” InuYasha yelled raising his fist in the air. “School can't die InuYasha. It was never alive! Something that was never alive can't die!” Kagome screeched.

 

Sango rubbed her temples. “I hate it when they fight like this! It's SO annoying!” Miroku got an idea. “InuYasha I have to go to the bathroom. You want to come?” InuYasha stopped arguing with Kagome over nothing and gave Miroku a disbelieving look. “What are we, girls? Only girls go with each other to the bathroom, stupid!”

 

Miroku got up from the table and started to walk to the bathroom. “Alright. Well I'm going.” About a minute later InuYasha was fidgeting like crazy. “JUST GO!” Kagome and Sango yelled in unison. Both greatly annoyed at this point. With that InuYasha dashed to the bathroom with his inhuman speed.

 

Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi came over to the table. “Hey Kagome, we haven't seen you in awhile.” Yuka said happily. “Hi Sango how are you?” Ayumi asked politely. “Me, oh I'm fine.” Sango replied with a smile. “So have you been hanging out with Hojo lately?” Eri inquired with a smirk. “Well, no…”

 

“There he is now. Hey, Hojo!” The three girls chimed while waving him over. Kagome sweatdropped. “Please Sango, SAVE ME.” Kagome begged in her friend's ear. “Hello Kagome. You're feeling better I see.” Hojo said with a smile. “You were sick?” Sango whispered. Kagome laughed nervously. “Wanna try excuses for not going out with him.”

 

Sango gasped. “He wants to go out with you? Are we even old enough to date? I've never even really thought about dating yet.”

 

Kagome sighed. “I know I'm not ready to date yet. Plus, even if I were I wouldn't really want to date him. I mean he's a nice guy and all but…”

 

“He's not your type.” Sango finished for her. “Yeah, exactly.” She whispered back. Hojo waved his hand in front of Kagome's face to get her attention. “Hello… Kagome. I was wondering if you wanted to go to a movie tonight. Ratatouille looked good.” Kagome sweatdropped again but it was much larger this time.

 

“Uh… Well… I'm kinda bus-“ Kagome was cut off by Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi. “She would LOVE to go to Ratatouille with you!” The three of them accepted… FOR HER. “Alright I'll see you tonight.” With that Hojo took off to another table to sit with his friends. Kagome's mouth was agape. She slapped herself on the forehead.

 

“Please, please tell me you didn't just do that.” Kagome begged. Her three friends sighed. “Kagome he's a great guy. You just need to give him a chance.” Eri stated sternly. “But gosh guys do I actually have to date him? Do you remember what grade we're in, how old we are?”

 

Yuka sighed. “Are you going out with someone else or something?”

 

Kagome blushed. “NO! I'm not dating anyone! Are you guys dating anyone?! We're WAY too young for this! I'm not ready!” She shrieked. Sango had veins popping out of her head. She was getting so fed up with Kagome's “friends”. “Why would you do that? You can't just make decisions for her! What kind of friends are you?!” This made Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi step back a little bit.

 

“WELL?!” Sango screamed getting really angry. “We just want what's best for her.” Ayumi squeaked innocently. This is when Miroku and InuYasha came back from the bathroom staring baffled at the five girls. “Did we come back at a bad time?” Miroku asked taking in the view of Sango almost exploding from anger.

 

“Kind of.” Kagome answered giving the boys a small apologetic look. “Hi Miroku, how are you?” Eri asked cheerfully apparently forgetting that Sango was about to tear her and her other two friends apart. Miroku raised an eyebrow. “Um… Good… I guess. But would you bear my children?” Sango smacked him on the back of the head. “This is so not a good time!”

 

InuYasha stared blankly at the three girls. He'd never met or seen them before. Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi went right up to InuYasha staring at him in awe. “Hi, I'm Yuka. This is Eri and Ayumi.” She said introducing each of her friends. InuYasha was a bit afraid of these three girls. They were way too cheery. “Uh… That's nice…” Then he ran and hid behind Kagome. “These people are scary.” He muttered.

 

Kagome giggled. “What happened to Mister Tough Guy, huh?”

 

“Kagome is this your boyfriend?” Ayumi asked with a small smile. Kagome blushed bright red. “NO! He's not my boyfriend! I don't have a boyfriend!” She screamed in embarrassment.

 

Sango's eye twitched. “I think Hojo is calling you three over there.” She said pointing to the boy. “He is?” Eri asked looking over. With that the three made their way over to the boy's table.

 

Miroku sat down in his seat rubbing his injured head. “What was that all about?”

 

“Kagome's friends.” Sango answered starting to cool off. “I could sort of tell. But Kagome's not that scary.” InuYasha commented. Kagome laughed. “They're scary?”

 

“Hell yeah. They were way too… Happy.” InuYasha answered with as small laugh of his own. “They can have their moments.” Kagome admitted.

 

“Kagome, you're not going on that date, are you?” Sango asked a bit nervously.

 

“WHAT?!”

 

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

“You're not going.” InuYasha said matter-of-factly. “Does it look like I want to go?!” Kagome shouted throwing her hands in the air. She sighed. “But I can't just stand the poor guy up.”

 

“Fine, then I'll do it for you.”

 

“It doesn't sound like you're giving me a choice.”

 

“I'm not.”

 

“What is with you?”

 

“What the hell are you talking about?”

 

“You know what I'm talking about.”

 

“No, I don't.”

 

“Yeah, you do.”

 

“I DON'T!”

 

“YOU DO!”

 

Sango sighed. “They're fighting again.”

 

“It is getting quite annoying all of the fighting they're doing.” Miroku agreed. Their fight got bad enough that Sango and Miroku had to hold them away from each other. “God, do we have to come over to your house just to make sure you two don't rip each other to shreds?!” Sango yelled holding Kagome back.

 

Miroku was having a hard time with InuYasha. “Hey, stop moving around! You're going to kill me and Kagome!”

 

“That's the point!” He screamed flailing trying to get Miroku off his back. Sango's boomerang came out of nowhere and smacked InuYasha on the head, finally knocking him out. “Where'd that come from?” Miroku asked lowering InuYasha's unconscious body to the ground. “I always keep it with me, just in case.” Sango answered with a wink.

 

“We should probably get InuYasha back to my house now.” Kagome suggested slightly picking him up from the ground. “A little help.” He was a lot heavier then she'd thought.

 

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

Once they got InuYasha in the house they rushed him to Kagome's room and set him on the bed. Kagome put her hand to his forehead then to the huge bump on the top of his head. “Sango's boomerang sure did a number on you.”

 

Sango rubbed the back of her head. “Sorry, guess I don't know my own strength.”

 

“You'd better know it soon because that strength of yours is a dangerous weapon.” Miroku stated rubbing the pink handprint on his cheek that was very sore. “You deserved that slap. You perv.” Sango said narrowing her eyes at him.

 

Kagome sighed. “Stop it you guys. If you two fight… I'm going to definitely have another person on this bed.”

 

InuYasha sat up and rubbed the bump on his head. “Geez. Was I hit by a truck or something?”

 

“You're close. Sango hit you with her boomerang.” Kagome explained.

 

“She knocked you out cold.” Miroku added with a nod.

 

Then the doorbell rang. Kagome looked to her clock in a panic. “Holy! Hojo's here!” InuYasha growled as he got up from the bed. “I'll take care of that Hobo guy personally.”

 

Kagome sat him down on the bed again. “No, if my mom sees him I'll never hear the end of it!” With that she ran downstairs and straight to the door. She hesitated but finally opened it. “Hi Kagome. I'm here to pick you up.” He said with a grin. “Well… I'm… Kind of… Bus-“

 

InuYasha staggered down the stairs. “What the hell are you doing here?” He asked angrily. Then Kagome got an idea. She quickly brought him to the door. Kagome pouted. “I'm sorry. I can't go to the movies with you because…” She sniffled. “My friend almost got run over by a car. He has such a terrible bump on his head… See?” She pointed to the bump on his head almost in tears.

 

“Oh my… Will he be alright?” Hojo asked concerned. Kagome sniffled again. “Yes, but I just want to stay with him until it gets all better. I'm so sorry I can't go with you.” She said wiping a tear from her eye and hugging InuYasha close to her for extra effect. “It's okay. We can go another time. See you at school!” And with that he left.

 

InuYasha's mouth was agape. “How… How did you do that?”

 

“Oh that? Drama lessons help a lot. You'd be surprised. Now let's get you back upstairs. You shouldn't have gone downstairs in the first place.” She stated dragging him back upstairs.

 

Sango and Miroku stuck their heads out of the door as she came back with InuYasha. “So… How'd it go?” Sango asked anxiously. “Great! He totally believed me!” Kagome squealed with glee.

 

They laid InuYasha back on the bed when Shippo came in. Shippo jumped on InuYasha's chest. “You head better yet?” He asked looking at the large bump that was still on his head sadly. “Feh. Yeah, I feel fine but they won't let me get up.”

 

“I hit you pretty hard you could have easily gotten a concussion.” Sango explained still feeling guilty she had done it in the first place.

 

InuYasha gave his friends a blank look. “Concussion? I could have gotten a concussion?!”

 

“Calm down. You're fine. Except for the fact that you're brain has been split in half.” Miroku sighed. “There's nothing we can do for you. You'll be fine for now. But…you'll die in seven days!” Miroku said the last part in a spooky voice and somehow the room had darkened and Miroku's face had been lit up by a flashlight. Miroku laughed evilly.

 

InuYasha's face paled. “WHAT?! I'm gonna… Gonna.” Sango cuffed Miroku on the back of the head. “Give it a rest Miroku.” Kagome turned on the lights. “How did you turn off the lights?”

 

“It was the ghost!” Miroku laughed evilly again, which led Sango to smack him again. A tiny remote fell out of his robes. Kagome picked it up and gasped. “The remote to my light switch. I've been looking for that forever!” Then Kagome cuffed Miroku on the head too.

 

Miroku rubbed his sore head. “Come on ladies.” InuYasha chortled. “I got to watch Miroku get beat up and I didn't even have to do anything! This day just gets worse and worse, then better and better!”

A/N: HaHa. A little bit of my randomness escaped this chapter. But it was funny… Right? I hate Hojo and Kagome's friends (at least when they make decisions for her like that). But you all probably know that by now. I've posted a quick one shot called “How I Feel”. It's Inu/Kag! But I'm not giving up on “Kids Will Be Kids” I promise to never give up on this story. Like my friend xPimx I believe that abandoning a story is like abandoning a child. I salute you xPimx. The next chapter will be up soon. But check out “How I Feel” if you're interested. :)
