A/N: Sorry it took me so long to update, but I've been away from the "office"... Haha... Yeah.. I was visiting an old friend. Anyway... I'm back and I'm working on the story... So.... on with the next chappie ^_^ .....

Disclaimer : I don't own any Inu.... Only the story plot.

"You. "
looked at Kagome then whispered to Inuyasha, "Isn't that the bitch that ran into you a few minutes ago?" Inuyasha nodded his head.
glared, with daggers in her eyes, at Inuyasha. She narrowed them before turning to her mom. "Mom, I'm going to go home so I can try to get this stain out more efficiently. I'll see you later tonight."
Higurashi nodded." Ok Kagome. Before you go... " She reached in her purse and pulled out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to Kagome. "Order a pizza for tonight." Kagome took the money from her mom and smiled. " Okay, mom. Thanks."
walked out of the office and slowly down that hallway, still angry and slightly shocked at what she just saw. She walked to the elevators and waited for the doors to open. A few minutes later, they opened. She walked in and pressed the level 1 button.
the door please!" A young woman was heard.
placed her hand on one of the doors and held it. The young woman entered with a smile on her face. She looked at Kagome. "Hey, weren't you in Mrs. Higurashi's office a few minutes ago?"
smiled at her."Yes I was. You were in there when I came out of the bathroom."
young woman smiled and nodded her head. "Yes. I'm Sango by the way.My friends and I have started a band and just got signed up here."
beamed at Sango, being very proud of her, slightly envious as well. "That's good. Maybe I'll be seeing you around here. My mother is the owner here. I'm Kagome."
two girls shook hands and started to chat about nothing in particular. Sango asked, " How do you know Inu?"
looked at her new friend with a confused look on her face. "Inu?"
nodded. " Yeah. The shorter silver haired, golden eyed hanyou."
sighed and her head dropped. "I don't know him personally. I was walking down the hallway earlier and I was daydreaming, not paying attention to where I was going. Apparently, neither was he and we accidently bumped into each other. He had a cup of coffee in his hand and it spilled all over my white shirt. I had to borrow the shirt I have on now from my mom. She keeps an extra stock of shirts in case something like that happens. Good idea too."
lifted her head with a smile when the chime rang, signaling they had stopped on the first floor. The door opened and the two girls walked out. Kagome turned to Sango and said, " Well, I better get going. I have to get home to get this stain out. Or at least try."
nodded, giving Kagome a smile and replied," Ok. Maybe I'll see you around. Oh, and don't worry about Inu's comment he made. He's always like that, but deep down, he's a really good guy when he wants to be."
kept her smile and nodded her head. "Ok. Thank you. Ja ne."
ne."
walked to the curb and waved down a taxi cab. She gave the man the address to frop her off, which was actually a few blocks from her house. She always had a thing about cabs. She paid the man and walked the rest of the way home. She sighed when she walked through the door. Her brother Souta had already come home and was in the living room, playing a video game with her grandpa. She noticed her brother was kicking her grandpa's butt and she giggled lightly at the thought of an old man playing a video game.
called out," Souta, Mom told me to order a pizza. Is that okay with you?"
yelled back," Yeah. That's great."
smiled and picked up the phone to dial the closest pizza parlor that delievers. She ordered two large pizzas. The person on the other end said that it would be there within fifteen to twenty minutes. She hung up the phone and went into the living room. Since it was the beginning of summer break, Kagome had nothing to do but to watch over her brother. Her mom had said that there was a spot open at the office and that she should put an application in as soon as possible. She had been working on her application ever since she got out for summer. She estimated that she would get it done within the next few days. She decided that she would stop by her mom's office and see how some things were done before actually applying for the job.

Meanw hile..... With Inu and co.
and Kikyo were arguing again. This wasn't the first time they had done this. They were at Sesshomaru's large house where they had their equipment set up in his basement. There were two couches and two large sofas set up randomly in front and to the side of the instruments. Sango and Miroku sat on one couch, Shippou was sitting on one of the large sofas, as was Sesshomaru in the other. Kikyo and Inu were standing up. This time, they were arguing about a missed note on vocals.
did not miss that damned note."
you did." He looked to Sango. " Say she did Sango. You heard her."
looked from Inu to Kikyo then to the ground. "Don't bring me into this. You know better than that." * SLAP* "And you know better than that, you freaking HENTAI !"hands had wandered to her rear like they always do.
can't believe you turned to one of my best friends to go against me. Inu, how could you?" She turn to walk towards the stairs. Half way up, she turned to Inuyasha and said, " By the way Inuyasha. It's over. And I quit the band." She turned back around and ran up the stairs. The rest of the friends sat in silence while they heard a car start up and drive away. Inuyasha looked at his friends and with a heavy sigh, sat down on the deserted couch. He could feel the eyes of his friends upon him. They all knew he and Kikyo had been having problems but never this bad. Whispering softly, he said,"Do not speak to me of her or what happened." They nodded their head.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sout a and their grandpa were eating the pizza that was ordered. Kagome had set a few peices in the fridge for her mom, knowing that the three would eat the whole box if given the chance. She thew the box in the trash and walked up the stairs and down the hall to her room. Her baggy pants made as much racket as possible. (A/N : In case you're wondering. She's a punk... As are the rest. Except Kikyo. I just haven't gotten to everything yet ^_^ ) She opened her door and the aroma of the burning incsence swamped her into a peacful sense of serenity. She smiled lightly. She walked towards her bed and fell on her stomach and just laid there, taking in the scent and relaxing. she looked over at her clock. It said 5:30 pm. She groaned. This was one of those nights that she just wished would end soon. She got up off the bed and walked to the bathroom. "Souta," she called, "I'm taking a shower. You know what to do!"
sis."
started the water, to warm up, while she undressed herself. She looked in the mirror. She looked kinda bad for the day. She didn't usually look this bad. She sighed and stepped into the shower, letting the hot water caress her skin, leaving hot trails behind the small rivers running down her body. She stood for a few minutes, letting the water wash away her thoguhts.

When she finished, she dried herself off with her towel and put on her glow in the dark skull, on black background, pajamas on. The shirt was a tight spaghetti strap. The pants were like regular pajama pants but they were long. She brushed her hair and brushed her teeth, then walked back to the living room to watch Souta until her mom came home. They sat watching t.v. Her mom walked through the door with a frown on her face.

Kagome looked at her with a worried look. "Mom, what's wrong?"

Mrs.Higurashi looked at her daughter while heading in the kitchen. Kagome followed. "Well, you know that group that was in my office when you were there?" Kagome nodded. "Well, the supposed lead singer quit on them. She and the lead guitarist had been having some arguments over the last couple of weeks and it finally took its toll. So, either they are gonig to try to find a new singer, or they are going to give up."

Kagome's eyes twinkled. "Mom, what if I tried out."

Mrs. Higurashi looked at Kagome, slightly audacious. "Kagome. I want you to get a good job that will benefit you. But.." She sighed "If you want. I suppose it wouldn't hurt. Besides, I know how you sing and I personally think its alot better than some of the things I've heard."

Kagome jumped and squealed while hugging her mom. This was what she wanted to do. Be a singer. Mrs. Higurashi gave Kagome the address to the Sesshomaru's house where the 'try-outs' would take place. She ran to her room quickly and sat it where she would see it in the morning.
