InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Promiscous Girl ❯ The Dinner to End all Dinners ( Chapter 10 )

A/N: My ultimate goal is to get the story finished by the end of this summer. I have another 5 chapters to go (5 more weeks).

The dinner to end all dinners

I made it just on time to see Rin and her boyfriend pull up in front of the bistro. It was a quaint little place in a strip mall. Sesshomaru had reserved the back banquet room for all of us to have a private meal. I guess this dinner thing was important to him because he wanted all of us to dress semi-formal. I, of course, put on a black and white because it is a classic look and my favorite colors to wear. I found a shirt dress that was just long enough to cover my assets and I didn't accessorize because I knew were amongst friends.

“Kagome” Rin called to me, waving vigorously like she had to flag me down. I rolled my eyes a little and made my way over to the car. Rin was beautiful in her floral print ground that was so long she had to hold up one side to keep it from sweeping the nasty floor. She had a huge sun hat on and a straw purse. Obviously semi-formal didn't apply to Sesshomaru's only daughter. Shippo had his hands shoved in some black dickies and a button-down shirt.

“Guess we made it on time” Shippo commented, taking Rin by the hand and helping her out of the car. The couple was as cute as they always were. Shippo was a perfect gentlemen and Rin was the all too spoiled girlfriend. Now she has 2 men in her hand.

“What's this dinner for?” Rin questioned and I just shrugged my shoulders. I wasn't too sure but I knew I had to get inside before that creepy guy from the store followed me. We walked together into the café and the waitress escorted us to the back half of the establishment, where Sess, Inuyasha, Kikyo, and the others were sitting.

“Are we late?” I asked casually, sliding into my usual spot at Sesshomaru's right side. I guess Sesshomaru had just left from work because he was dressed in a black business suit. He was the most overdressed of the bunch.

“We're waiting for Sango and Miroku” Kikyo said coldly, I could see she was not happy that we had to wait. The little prima donna was used to people waiting on her. She was definitely not in dress code either. Her skin tight blue dress left absolutely nothing to the imagination, including the fact that her plastic airbag like breasts were spilling out of the top and her sloppy butt was almost coming out of the dress.

“Well they need to hurry their asses up. We don't have all day” Inuyasha snapped, giving me a glancing over. I turned my attention away from him and over to Rin. He too was dressed in a suit, but it didn't look quite as nice as Sesshomaru's.

“Well a few minutes won't kill us, just be patient” I chided at Inuyasha. Kikyo narrowed her eyes at me but said nothing. I was already sick of her and I had just gotten there.

“Sorry we're late everyone, that traffic was just awful” busted in Sango, with Miroku trailing behind her. Sango was always elegant, with her siren red lipstick, and her formal flowing gown. I adored the way she dressed.

“Today's menu consists of a salad, soup, entrée, and dessert. For the salads, you may choose between garden or Caesar” The waitress announced. She went around to each of us to ask us what we wanted and we talked in little groups amongst ourselves while we waited for everyone to finish. The servers began bringing cups of water, teas, and sodas to us.

“Thank you all for coming” I said, standing up and smiling at the group. I was pretty warmed by all the faces I say (except for Kikyo's).

“Why are we here?” Rin chirped, her face a little pink from asking such a silly question.

“We are here today to announce our wedding” Sesshomaru said, standing beside me. I looked over at him in amazement. I knew we were “engaged” but that was only for damage control. Plus we haven't even been engaged long enough for him to consider marriage.

“Who's getting married?” Inuyasha nearly choked on his water.

“Kagome and I” Sesshomaru answered regally. I was the next one to almost choke. Thankfully I wasn't munching on anything.

“Congratulations!” Sango cheered, raising her water glass in the air. Everyone slowly motioned to copy her.

“Can I get anything else?” The waitress asked. Sango waved her hand towards the young girl.

“A bottle of your finest red wine please” she requested, which was usual because Sango never drank. Not even when we went out to the clubs.

“Yes ma'am, of course” The young girl scurried off and returned with a bottle, which she promptly opened and poured into Sango's empty water goblet. Sango forced the girl to leave the bottle at the table so she could refill her glass herself.

They brought out our soups, slowly dispensing them to each of us.

“So Inuyasha, now that your big brother is getting married, when are we?” Kikyo asked. That question brought a noticeable silence over the table. Sesshomaru and I hadn't even tied the knot yet but Kikyo was already concerned about planning her own wedding.

“Not for awhile Kikyo, we've barely been dating” Inuyasha said casually, returning to his navy bean soup. But Kikyo wasn't satisfied with that answer.

“Everyone here is pretty much secure in their relationship. I mean even little Rin over there is coupled up with her beau. When are we gonna settle down and make a family, Yasha?” Kikyo begged, turning on her sickening sweet voice and latching on to his closest arm.

“Marriage is a serious thing Kikyo, and it's not for everyone “I commented, trying not to slurp my chicken noodle soup. Sure, I felt like a kid for wanting to and for ordering it but that's my all time favorite soup. Kikyo ignored my comment and kept her eyes glued to Inuyasha.

“More wine please” ordered Sango, filling up her own glass. I tentatively reached for the bottle, only to shake it and notice it was about halfway gone. Sango had more glasses then anyone at the table. I noticed Miroku only sipped on his one glass but Sango had had 3.

“Stop it Kikyo, that's enough” Inuyasha snapped, he was trying not to take a scene at his big brother's classy dinner party but Kikyo was just nagging him to death.

“What theme are you going to do the wedding in, Kagome?” Rin asked. I was glad that someone remembered that this party was for me and my fiancé, not just them and their drama.

“Black and white; a classic theme that's both simple but yet sophisticated” I said, rehearsed from what Sesshomaru told me. He did not consider Black or White to be a color because it did not fall on the color wheel. My mother felt it was not because no designer ever raged about the latest pure white or black dress made. But that was what I wanted and Sesshomaru was letting me have my way fully. Down to the white doves released at the end.

“Aw how sweet, is everyone here invited?” Kikyo asked, and I wondered what game she was trying to play.

“Of course, the invitations won't be formally passed out until later on though” I answered, pushing my soup bowl away from me. Sango said nothing, didn't even ask if she was going to be my maid of honor or anything.

“Sango, will you be my maid of honor?” I asked slowly, as long as I had known her she might as well be. Rin agreed to be our flower girl because she was the youngest girl Sesshomaru and I knew.

“Wine” snapped Sango. The lady ran over to refill her glass. I frowned because she didn't answer my question but Sesshomaru put a comforting hand on my thigh to calm me.

“Sango, my dear, that's enough” Miroku complained after her 4th glass.

“Hush...Miro…ku” Sango slurred, her glass and hand swaying towards him. He reached out for it, trying to pry it from her fingers but she refused to let go.

“What's wrong with her? Can't hold some liquor, Sango” taunted Kikyo. Inuyasha shot her a cold glare and she shut right up, sipping her champagne.

“My best friend in the whole wide world who I love more than anything is getting married. I wonder if her husband knows she's a whore” Sango said cruelly. All the color in my face drained and I turned my pale face to Miroku. His eyes were down and he wasn't giving me any signal.

“Watch your language Sango” warned Sesshomaru, his voice controlled but I already knew he was pissed.

“Do you know she fucked my boyfriend in his car on the way to work? She was more than 2 hours late that day. Wanna know the worse part? They both lied to me; she didn't tell me and he didn't either. It wasn't until I saw the ripped part of Kagome's work shirt in the back seat of Miroku's SUV that I realized it” Sango announced and I was mortified. Did Sesshomaru know? Sure, I told him all the guys I had been with. But not everyone else needed to know my big mistake.

“Is that true, Kagome?” Rin asked, she looked up to me as a role model but this was definitely one example I didn't want her to follow.

“Whether or not this accusation is true doesn't matter. Miroku, take your girlfriend and leave” Sesshomaru demanded. He would not have his wife-to-be horribly embarrassed in front of their peers.

“Did you know she had your boyfriend too Kikyo? She slept with him in the men's bathroom of Shikon. And she did it to get revenge for what you did in high school” Sango screamed, as Miroku was dragging her kicking out of the banquet room. My previously red face was now on fire and I sat there in shame. I wish the floor would have opened me up and swallowed me whole because it would have been better then what I had to face.

“Wow, what a slut you've become Kagome. Too bad you weren't like that before, maybe you wouldn't have lost all those years ago” Kikyo mumbled and I fled the room. That was enough; first Sango then Kikyo. As I was leaving, I could hear Inuyasha still talking.

“Shut the hell up, you're the biggest skank here. I know what you and Naraku did last night. Wanted to guarantee that business deal, right? The maids already packed your shit and it's at your daddy's house now” Inuyasha said, standing from the table and throwing his napkin onto the plate.

“Yasha?!?! Don't do this to me. It was only a onetime thing, please” Kikyo shed her fake tears. Her dream at owning a piece of two companies was going down the drain.

“Rin, go home with Shippo tonight. The driver will bring over your overnight bag shortly” Sesshomaru said, dismissing his daughter and going in pursuit of his fiancé. He could only hope that what happened tonight didn't haunt everyone again.
