Nonexistent Fairy Tale

Chapter 9

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any of the characters.

Kagome’s day seemed considerably favorable. She was spending time with some of the greatest friends she could ever ask for. They loved her for who she was; they didn’t want her to change; they didn’t ignore her. She scoffed as thoughts of a certain hanyou drifted in her mind. ‘I don’t want to think, or even speak to that jerk!’ She shook her head to rid her mind of such thoughts. ‘Must have a good time!’

Miroku, Sango, Hojo, Kagome, Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka currently resided at a local movie theater. They were in that precise order. It was about halfway through the movie and Kagome was bored. Everyone else seemed to be engrossed in the screen, but she couldn’t keep her mind from wandering. She kept thinking back to the past few days, when Inuyasha had ignored her. Then she’d think about how he had comforted her in her time of need. She bit her lip in contemplation. Little did she know, she wasn’t the only one not giving the movie their full attention? The boy next to her kept anxiously glancing over at her. ‘Today is the day, Higurashi, today is the day…’

Upon hearing the doorbell, the hanyou’s ears perked up. He shot out of bed and was at the front door in a matter of seconds. His hand hesitated at the knob as he paused to investigate what he was wearing. He had on a pair of blue boxers and his well-toned muscles were showing. He smirked at the thought it might be Kikyou and his hesitation lasted no more. He swung the door open only to be face-to-face with…

The movie had ended some time ago and the trio of girls had left. Sango went along with them; fore the direction in which they headed was on the way to her work. That left Miroku, Kagome, and Hojo. Miroku stayed because he and Kagome were going to go home together after they picked Shippou up at one of his friend’s houses. Hojo…Well let’s just say he had a hidden agenda. The three left were walking in comfortable silence down the street. Hojo was still taking glances at the miko next to him every few seconds. Miroku was getting fed up with this guy’s obvious likes for his new ‘sister’. He was currently trying to think up an excuse as to why they should leave when the inane boy spoke.

“Higurashi…Would you like to go out sometime?” A slight blush crept up the poor boys face. Higurashi, snapped out of her daze like trance, looked at him startled.

“Umm…Hojo…I don’t know…” She was going to reply with ‘No, I don’t like you like that,’ but the look on his face made her say otherwise. “Of course Hojo…I’d love to.” She smiled brightly, receiving a blush and shy smile from the boy.

“Friday then. See you at school, Higurashi!” With that, the boy turned right and walked out of sight. Kagome’s brown orbs clouded over in confusion once again. She looked at the only friend still left questioningly. “Miroku, did I just agree to a date with Hojo?” He nodded and sighed.

“I’m afraid you did, Kagome. I’m afraid you did.” He patted her shoulder sympathetically. She looked angry for a second, before pensive once more.

“But the boy never even says my name!” She scowled and crossed her arms over her chest. Miroku laughed at the poor girl’s misfortune and grabbed her hand.

“Come on, Kags, we have to go pick Shippou up!” She looked dumbfounded and followed obediently.

Finally snapping out of her daze like state, “Miroku…I’ll make you a deal.” This peaking his interest he looked back at her. “Hn?”

“Well…I was thinking…If I give it a go with Hojo…You have to try and get someone to go out with you too! Whoever lasts the longest, I’m not sure what…But they will win something.” Kagome nodded, satisfied with her idea. Miroku took a bit to ponder what she was saying before complying.

“Okay milady. We will see who will last the longest with our designated ‘dates’. The winner will receive having the loser as their servant for one week.” He nodded, locking arms with her and walking dignified. The girl giggled and tried to mimic him.

“Why of course, dear sir. You shall be my servant.” She couldn’t control the laughter that came out of her throat. He looked taken aback and stopped. The miko giggled and shot off down the street.

“Hey! You, wait! Get back here! I’m so going to win!” Therefore, a childish game of ‘atch me if you can’ began.

The hanyou gawked at whom he saw before him. He quickly grabbed a shirt that happened to be on the coat rack next to him and threw it on. At the door, it was none other than…

“Kouga? What the hell are you doing here?” The hanyou looked at the ceiling, asking the Gods why they chosen to send him.

“Shut up dog shit. I have a plan of action and I need your help.” The wolf demon pushed the boy aside and stepped in the house. A low growl escaped the offended boy. How dare some stupid wolf waltz into his house and push him around.

“Listen, you can’t just walk on in my house and push me around! This better be fucking good, or else I’m kicking your ass!” The wolf waved him off and found his way to the living room. He promptly sat down on the couch, sprawling out.

“I just got news that Kagome has accepted a date with Hojo.” Inuyasha’s eyes widened in shock. “I know as well as you do, that boy is no good for Kagome. I also know that you’ll help me in getting her away from him. Am I right?” The wolf stopped speaking aand switched his gaze from the coffee table towards the other boy in the room.

“Hell yeah. I’d do anything for Kagome. I don’t want her to be with some stupid ass jerk like Hojo! So what do you have in mind?” He sat down on a chair across from Kouga and they began their plotting.

Okay…I would like to thank my reviewers. : ) I’m updating for you people. Especially those who are near to begging me to update. Heh-heh makes me feel special! So here it is. Also, a little note. The next chapter will have the funny scene I’ve been waiting to write. It happens on Kagome and Hojo’s date! : )

Proceed on your exploration of your happily ever after,
