As soon as the show was over, InuYasha decided that he wanted to get to his bouzo friend and say hey. He looked to his date and grabbed her hand while pulling her casually behind him.
"InuYasha, baby, where are we going," she asked in a mildly irritated tone.
InuYasha had to catch himself before he threw the girl across the floor. She was really getting irritating, "I saw one of my friends before the show, and I wanted to say hey. Why is there anything wrong with that?" He about rolled his eyes as he barked the last of his reply.
The girl had to hold her shock of surprise back,'he really just yelled at me.'
"Why no. I was just wondering why my hand has to be pulled with such force that I am having a hard time walking in my five inch heels," she said through clenched teeth. The bitterness in her tone accompanied the venom in her voice.
InuYasha halted at the reminder, 'what am I doing? I want to get laid, don't I?'
And here he was pissing the girl off so much that he could smell the anger beginning to radiate off her well developed form.
He abruptly stopped making the mildly irate female behind him run straight into his backside. Before she could fall and make a fool of herself, InuYasha caught her around the waist, while bringing her back to rest comfortably on her heels. When she finally reached earth again, she noticed that she was staring into the most beautiful eyes given to any man on the planet.
'Why are his eyes such a strange color,'she wondered briefly, though not the first time.
"You okay," he asked. His eyes focusing on her brown orbs.
She mildly shook her head and wondered why she was in his arms in the first place. She didn't remember anything. She was locked in place by his gaze, but suddenly, she leaned up and placed a hungry kiss to his lips.
His lips were soft and warm. They held a pull to them that called to her. She knew once she got caught, she would never be able to get out of this stupor.
To say that InuYasha was shocked was an understatement.
Yes, he was used to women fawning over him, but he was so caught up in her scent, that it took him valuable moments to realize that she had him in a breathless, or what she would consider… breathless kiss.
Her scent change so fast. From worry. To fear. To confusion…and finally to arousal, that he was just getting to the second one…when she planted her full lips on his.
It also didn't help matters any that he was scooping out the club, when she did it either, but that is neither here nor there.
'At least I got her back to where I want her,' he thought with a little imaginary pat on the back.
No one else would know that he got caught off guard, so to any other man he was viewed as a pro, and no one would know the difference.
"Takahashi Inu…InuYasha ? Is that you?"
InuYasha almost inwardly fell over from the shock that someone snuck up on him without him noticing. He would have to remember to not get lost in his thoughts next time.
So reluctantly he pulled away from the girl, and turned his head to the man whom he had his intent on going to find.
"Sakamoto, how is it going man? I haven't seen you since high school," he left off with an air or confusion, thinking silently back to make sure that he was correct.
"What have you been up to," InuYasha asked while making his way from the girl beside him, to his lifelong best friend. A huge smile in place on his normally cocky face.
"I've been good my friend," Miroku answered truthfully. Smiling he continued, "Just touring along with the band that played here tonight. I'm their manager b—"
"Don't let that pervert tell you something that isn't true," a woman said busting into the conversation.
"He isn't our manager. He is our groupie," she ranted on, stopping when she got next to him. "We just let him hang out 'cause he won't leave us alone," she continued looking mildly irritated while rolling her eyes.
"Kimura, you wound me so," Miroku said to his own defense. "Higurashi told me, herself, that I was the manager, and that having a male groupie is just 'kinda shocking'," he said while holding quotations around the statement that gave their friend the creeps.
"Well, if you hadn't tried to sneak in our hotel in the middle of the night, while wearing a flippin' bunny costume... we might have been a little nicer to you," the woman, InuYasha found out to be named Kimura, fired back.
Miroku placed his hand over his lowered face, sad… that his friend had to hear the misrepresentation of what really happened.
"Kimura…I have already been through this before. I thought that on Easter... a person is suppose to sit on the bunny's lap and take a picture with him. I mean I even brought the multi-colored eggs with me. What more can I give you," he asked sounding tired of the whole ordeal.
"You should have thought of that, before you busted into our room in the middle of the night… carrying a camera in bunny attire," Kimura shot back. "Gods Sakamoto, you have to be one of the most—"
InuYasha, feeling like it was time that the two of them shut up… decided to slap his friend in the back of the head. He was never one for not being the center of attention anyways.
"Damn Miroku, I thought you were bad in high school, but apparently I was wrong," InuYasha said with his eyes closed, shaking his head in dislike.
He then looked to Kimura, and still mildly irritated that they didn't notice his presence, walked up to her and placed a smile on his face, "Forgive my friend for his retarded antics. He has always been like that. I am Takahashi InuYasha . Miroku and I went to school together, and from what I can gather you are Kimura, right," he asked while holding his hand out to her.
Kimura had to get off of cloud nine. This man in front of her was beautiful, and no words could describe how confident he was. Just that he was so confident… he was alluring.
She shook her head like a little school girl at first, and had to catch the drool that was longing to fall out of her mouth. However, when she noticed what she was doing… she had to gawk at herself. She quickly schooled her features and placed a big smile on her face.
"Why yes, I am Kimura Sango," she replied gripping his firm hand. "Sorry about earlier. Sakamoto here can be a big pain in the butt, and I have to remember to keep his lies down to a minimum, before people start believing the crap that he pulls out of his mouth," she replied giving InuYasha a nice smile.
After a couple of seconds, she glanced over to Sakamoto and saw that he had impending doom written on his face… directed towards Takahashi for some strange reason. "Sakamoto, is something the matter? You look a little perturbed," Sango asked with a quirked eyebrow.
Miroku quickly glanced to Sango and wiped the scowl that he didn't know he had been making off his face before replying, "Why, whatever do you mean my lovely, Kimura?"
She had to roll her eyes at the comment, but shifted her glance to the side when she heard InuYasha chuckling. "What's so funny Takahashi", she had to ask, but was mildly irritated that he interrupted her torment for the pervert.
"Oh nothing I was just—"
Everyone turned to the irate looking female who just very loudly cleared her throat, "Inu honey, you haven't forgotten about me have you?"
InuYasha immediately scowled when he heard her pet name for him, 'there was only one other woman that called me by that name.' He hated to hear it, but he also knew that he forgot her, and so this time he would let it pass.
"Oh, I'm sorry baby. I just got so caught up in the conversation," he said in faked happiness. "Anyways as you might have heard, this is my old high school buddy, Sakamoto Miroku ," he said pointing a finger in his direction. "And this is his girlfriend, Kimura —"
"WHAT?" Sango angrily spat. "Me and that pervert are definitely not a couple. I wouldn't go out with that dim witted jackass if he was the last man on earth. And another thing—"
"Kimura," Miroku quickly interjected, "I think my friend gets the idea. I believe y—"
"No I don't really understand yet. Why don't you enlighten me a little bit further," InuYasha joked while trying to encourage Kimura to further explain to him the idea of why dating the pervert is unspeakable.
"I am so misunderstood," Miroku finally said in an airy sigh.
The banter was once again rerouted from the almost eminent retort that was coming from Kimura, when Takahashi's date laughed at the other couples antics. "My, you two are funny. Oh, and I haven't had an opportunity to properly introduce myself. I am Onizuka Hurahi," Hurahi said slightly lowering her head in respect for the two in front of her.
"It's such a pleasure to be meeting you all." Happiness was evident from her voice, even though everyone else thought she was just putting it on a little thick.
"You have been one of my favorite bands for some time now. Where are the other three," Haruhi asked with a finger slinking back and forth to show the confusion she felt when she didn't see the other girls present.
Kimura and Miroku quickly shrugged their shoulders to the back, "They are just hanging out in the back. They like to practice and play one more time, before we leave. I went out here to look for the pervert, because we couldn't find where he stuck Ayame's sticks to the drums," Sango answered for them both. She then turned towards said man and asked, "By the way…where are they? I totally forgot about them until just now."
Miroku scratched his head before replying, "I am pretty sure that I placed them by Higurashi's backpack, so we wouldn't forget 'em. You know how she takes that bag with her everywhere she goes," Miroku chuckled lightly.
"Yeah she does," Sango said smirking a little as well.
"Okay then," she said turning towards the other two. "I will head back there to go get them, but probably as long as I have been gone… they found them by know," Kimura said laughing a little.
"Nice to meet you guys!" Sango waved at the two in front of her and then turned to go backstage where the rest of the band was supposedly getting ready to play a couple more songs.
Miroku looked over to his friend after his beauty left and was surprised to see longing in his eyes. He took a couple seconds to ponder why his friend might be thinking, so he went over the conversation he just had with Kimura and came to a conclusion.
Miroku finally understood the desire for what it was and acted upon it in the first way that he knew. "Would the two of you like to see them in a private session? I am the manager after all," he replied with a smirk on his face.
"I do have connections. It will also give you an opportunity to meet the rest of the band. How 'bout it," he asked. His eyes hopeful that they would take the offer.
Onizuka was the first to respond, "Really, you would do that for us?"
She started acting all giddy, "I would love to!"
She turned to face InuYasha fully, grasping his hand in the both of hers, "Do you want to come too, InuYasha? I really want you to be with me," she asked with big beautiful green eyes.
InuYasha was glad that his friend came up with the idea. He wanted to get a chance to meet that sexy singer that he laid eyes on for the first time not two hours ago. "Yeah, I will go with you," he said flashing a grin.
"I can't have you walking around without me anyways," he replied with an air of cockiness once again back in his voice. He was going to love meeting this new prize of his, and he knew that she would be too nice to say no.

Sango got into the back room, and she was shocked to see toilet paper and confetti all over the couch and the flat screen that they hid in the back. Not to mention all over every other piece of furniture that was in the room.
"What the crap went on back here," she asked a little peeved now that the cleanup was going to come out of their check they got for the night.
"Oh, you missed it," Ayame bubbled up. "Rin got tired of sitting around when we were looking for my sticks," she pointed to the girl on the floor in front of the tv. "So she went into the bathroom grabbed some toilet paper and started rollin' all of Sakamoto's stuff."
"After that she got bored and decided to get some cans of silly string," she paused in her speech cracking up a little at the whole situation, "and confetti… and went over to where Kags was sitting on the couch and sprayed a bunch in her hair."
"Kagome fell off the couch but got right back up and tackled her," at this the other girls started to laugh too.
"And then… I decided to try to intervene like the kind person that I am," she told them seriously with a little wink.
"And they both looked at me with this eerie glint in their eyes," she said laughing again.
"And ganged up on me," Ayame finally finished her tirade of what appeared to be one heck of a time, while trying to pull silly string out of her red hair.
"Well, I hate to say that I am sad that I missed it, but I'm not," Sango fired at the other three girls in front of her. "You guys know that they are going to take this out of our pay," she asked with an arm waving in the general direction of the building.
"And Kagome," Sango said to Kagome, who was the recipient of the hard stare. "I can't believe that you helped her," she said shaking her head.
"I thought we talked about this," Sango said huffing. Her shoulders falling a bit. "And why are you guys getting a scary glint in your eyes..." she trailed off and started running in the direction she came from, when she noticed her friends intent.
"No you don't… ah," Sango yelled as she was blasted with silly string coming from three different angles.
Kagome got Sango right in the side of the face. She couldn't help it. At first she felt bad that Sango saw how much of a mess they made, but the more the girl talked the more she decided that she wouldn't complain as much if she was also part of the fun. So she gave Rin and Ayame a nod to tell them her objective, and once Sango got to the end of her rant and started figuring something was up she thought it was the perfect time to attack.
Sango grabbed an abandoned can of silly string and faced her opponents. "I can't believe you attacked me when my back was turned. You will pay for this, Higurashi!" She said in a sarcastic, aghast manner while spraying her friend on the chest. She then turned to Ayame and Rin and sprayed them as well.

Five minutes later and the room was twice as bad as it was when Sango first walked in, but she didn't care; she had fun making the mess. "Oh, so Sakamoto has a really cute friend, Kagome," Sango said walking towards the couch in the back room. "I think he is just your type," she said sliding down between Ayame and Kagome on the couch with Rin two feet in front of her on the floor.
"Oh and what makes you say that," Kagome asked. Now curious about what brought this sudden turn of events, and had to wonder why her friends loved to tell her who she should and shouldn't date.
Sango smiled at her and gave her a wink, "because I know how much you love a bad boy, and believe me, he had bad boy written all over his face, and he had the most amazing amber eyes."
Kagome almost jerked upright at the color that brought her so much flutter from before. 'Amber, did she… just say amber?'
"I don't know, Sango. You aren't the greatest at telling me who I should date," Kagome replied making sure to keep enthusiasm away from her demeanor, and her voice cool. "I mean remember, Yoshida," she asked raising an eyebrow.
"Well at least Ayame got a chance to meet her true love—"
"Akitoki," Kagome cut in.
"Well how was I supposed to know that he didn't have enough balls to be called a man," Sango defended, "I mean I thought—"
"Nakamura," Kagome asked her friend. Voice rising a little higher from the smirk that was forming on her lips. She was really trying not to laugh and her friends adamant behavior.
"Okay. Okay, I get your point," Sango said feeling a little defeated. She shook her head, and locked eyes with Kagome. A little smirk playing on her face, "but I am right about this one."
"Oh," Kagome said faking interest with a little smile of her own on her face.
Shaking her head in the affirmative, Sango continued, "He has this bimbo with him tonight. But I know for a fact, that he won't stay with her," she said laughing a little.
"And what makes you so sure about that," Kagome asked, actually getting a little interested in what her friend had to say.
"I mean… all girls know a hoe when they see one," Sango said, pausing a little with a huge grin on her face.
Kagome just raised an eyebrow at this statement. She really was not catching on to what her friend was trying to communicate.
Sango, seeing her friends' confusion, just shook her head and let out a little giggle, "Come on, Kagome. Are you really that slow?"
Kagome lifted her shoulders, showing that she really didn't get it, "Just continue on with the story."
Sango just rolled her eyes, "Well anyways, you know a hoe when you see one," she restated the phrase. "And let me tell you that girl was a hoe," she said, starting to laugh.
The other girls let out a giggle as well.
Sango, after she got her composer back together, decided to continue, "And I swear if he didn't think Sakamoto and I were together—"
"He thought you and Sakamoto were together," Rin cut in with a bundle of laughter. "That has to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard."
"It is not," Sango interjected. "Why would anyone think that I am with that pervert? I mean look at him, he—"
"Actually Sango," Ayame cut her off. "Kagome and I have been telling you… for months now that you guys should get together," she said pointing to her friend and herself.
Kagome agreed completely and began to shake her head, "I mean he isn't as bad as he used to be. Haven't you noticed that he is only perverted around you," she asked pointing to Sango, trying to make her think about the question she placed in front of her.
"And you can't deny that you like him too," Ayame piped up.
Whatever elation Sango received from thinking that the man had stopped his perverted antics with others was crushed in the butt when she heard her friend voice her hidden secret.
Her eyes widened, 'great and I can feel my cheeks burning.'
"Excuse me, but I have no such feelings for that pervert," she said trying to hide the crimson blush on her cheeks.
"Yeah, yeah… and Ayame doesn't love Yoshida," Rin said, making fun of how stupid that last comment was to all in the room.
Kagome laughed at the blunt statement, all the while nodding her head. She completely agreed. No matter how lame of a comparison it might be.
Sango, knowing that she wasn't going to win the argument, decided to change subjects, "I do believe that it is time for our practice, so if you guys stop messing around we can get it done and get out of here."
Miroku stepped to the door just in time to hear Sango finish speaking. He glanced around the room and saw the snickering face of Rin, the hopeless look on Ayame's, and the annoyed look on Kagome's face.
'I wonder what I missed,' he thought as he stepped more into the room.
"Hey guys,” but then he stopped. “What happened in here?" he asked once he finally got a good look at the room.
Sango immediately jumped around upon hearing his voice and hoped that he hadn't heard everything that they talked about.
'Saying that I don't like him is nothing new,'she reassured herself.
"Oh sorry about that. We got a little bored and decided to have some fun with the toilet paper and confetti, but if you want to blame someone... Rin started it," Sango said pointing at Rin and trying to get the girls grins off her.
And it worked.
"Hey, I didn't hear you complaining when you decided to go all out on what I didn't get of Sakamoto's stuff," Rin got in to defend herself.
"What," Miroku exclaimed, walking over to his possessions to see the beating that they went through while he was gone. Kneeling beside his blue bag, he pulled out his black jacket, along with his PSP and was glad to see that the only tenure that really became infested with silly string was his backpack.
"Why is it always my possessions that gets attacked," Miroku inquired more to himself than all the others in the room.
"What did I ever do to deserve such a harsh punishment?" He asked in a downcast manner knowing that it happened all the time.
"Well," Kagome started. "If you weren't such a uncanny stalker that walked around in a bunny outfit with a camera… at like three in the morning; it might not have been so bad," she said giving him a little grin, showing it was all in good fun.
"I guess you won't ever be able to live that down," InuYasha decided to cut in. He wanted a chance to meet this, Kagome, girl.
Miroku sighed, "I think you're right my friend."
All the girls turned when the mystery man spoke, and then turned questioning glances to Sango to ask if this was the man that she was talking about. With an affirmative nod of her head, the girls then glanced up to Miroku.
Ayame locked gazes with him, and could tell from her distance that this man was a demon, and if her nose didn't lie, 'Hanyou.'
He smiled in her direction, allowing his demonic aura to strengthen for just a moment, and then immediately lowered it back to its dormant state.
'So there is a wolf hanging out with a bunch of human girls,' he thought as he stepped up next to Miroku.
Ayame was a little taken aback by the strength of his aura.
'How can a half-demon be that strong?' Her eyes widened when she recognized his scent, 'Inu No Taisho's son.'
InuYasha felt his patience slipping and decided to take it upon himself to be introduced.
"Well, I am sorry that my friend is unable to introduce me," he said giving Miroku a little jab in the shoulder. "I am Takahashi InuYasha" he said holding his hand out, but then looked down when someone nudged him and noticed… 'what was her name… Hiraho?' looking up expectantly at him.
Sensing that he wasn't getting it, Hurahi turned the charm on and playfully slapped her man. She rolled her eyes a little and motioned to the man beside her, "Inu, here tends to space out a bit and forgets when others are with him. I am Onizuka Hurahi," Hurahi said, placing her hand over her heart.
InuYasha just rubbed his hand over his face, as she, once again used his hated nickname, 'Who the hell does she think she is?'
Hurahi, oblivious to the thoughts going on inside the head of the man beside her continued. "I just wanted to tell you that your show tonight was amazing," she said looking to the four women in front of her. "I have been a fan for a while, but this was actually the first time I was able to go," she said the excitement oozing out of her.
Haruhi turned her head slightly towards InuYasha as she continued her little rant, "Inu baby here, let me pick the date for once. Isn't that right baby?" She finished, leaning her head on his shoulder.
He knew why she did it, but he hated when girls had the audacity to act all like they were his girlfriend. He didn't view any girl as that. No one. He viewed his dates as sex objects.
'Make that like one time sex objects 'cause after that they started calling and wanting to hang out all the time. It was just too much damn work,' he thought to himself.
He made up the rule long ago. After one time he ditched 'em, and then maybe when he was feeling generous he would go out with them a couple more times. Just in case he didn't have a date for that night and would be bored.
He rolled his eyes at her but decided to go with it, 'whatever she wants to think.'
He leaned down and kissed her forehead, "Yeah, baby."
Miroku, finally starting to remember his manners, and getting the hint that he needed to introduce the rest of the band to his friend, motioned for InuYasha and his date to follow him, as he led them to the band.
"Okay. This lovely lady on the far side of the couch is the drummer, Ogawa," he said pointing to the red haired girl on the couch. Ayame, still mildly shocked about who she was dealing with, shook her head, and politely lowered her head in response.
InuYasha fixed his eyes on the girl that was looking hard in his direction, 'Ogawa, huh.'
Miroku oblivious to the clairvoyant communication between the two just continued on with the introductions.
"The lovely one in the middle is Miss Kimura… whom you have already met," he said pointing to the woman with the fiery personality from earlier. Miroku gave her a wink, and Sango just let out a big puff of air and turned the other way. Miroku, not paying attention to this continued on with the line.
"The one sitting on the floor looking for someone to tackle is Shimizu," Miroku said, laughing when the girl started to make a fuss at being identified in such a way.
He shook his head and turned to the one yet to be spoken for. "And the young beauty sitting on the side of the couch closest to us is the bands singer, Higurashi," Kagome lowered her head a little and smiled.
At the same time, all four girls walked over to greet their guest, and Kagome could tell that this man in front of her had to be the one she saw during the show. 'His eyes glowed in the same unearthly way.'
"It's nice to meet you both," she said extending her hand out to them. InuYasha was the first to take her hand, and she was taken aback at how her body reacted to a simple hand shake. She could've sworn that she felt electricity from his touch. Shaking her head, she let her grip on Takahashi's hand go, and turned to Onizuka to give her a warm welcome as well.
The other girls followed in turn, each one giving Takahashi a little extra lingering of a touch and then moving on to the woman beside him.
Ayame, last to shake the other demons hand, held her hand out to him and firmly grasped it in her own as he held his palm out to her. "Be careful who you mess with mutt," she whispered so only he could hear.
"Shove off, wolf," InuYasha replied equally as quiet. "I really don't think you want your little secret to get out. Now, do you?" He threatened when the girl just wouldn't back down.
"You wouldn't dare," she replied, shocked that he would say something, "it goes against the code."
"What the hell do I care about codes," he replied flippantly, but still quietly so no one else would know what they are talking about.
They were starting to have a death glare staring match when—
"Oh my gosh, I love your outfit," Rin exclaimed to Haruhi.
Haruhi, a little flustered at the extra attention, looked down at her outfit, "Well thank you, Shimizu. I was thinking the same thing about yours," she said pointing to the girl in front of her. "Where did you get your jeans anyway? I haven't seen that designers stuff around here at all lately," Haruhi asked, being led over to the table and chair set by Rin.
Ayame and InuYasha separated but still kept a close watch on each other.
Kagome not ever liking to be silent for long decided to join a conversation of her own, she turned back to InuYasha… a little smile in place, "I hope the performance wasn't too boring for you, Takahashi. I know a lot of the time guys with girls only come because of their dates, but none the less."
Waiting for his reply she decided to sit down on the arm of the couch, feeling a little too light headed at the moment, 'I wonder what that's about'.
InuYasha shrugged his shoulders, glad that he didn't have to deal with wolf at the moment, "Keh, it wasn't horrible or anything," he walked closer to her and sat on the other side of the couch, so she would have to turn to face him, when she fully turned to him he continued, "I am just not into this type of music."
Seeing the eyebrow raise on her face he decided to explain himself, "I don't go for the techno stuff. Unless I am at a club or something, but you guys pulled it off pretty good," he said smiling a little at her.
Ayame walked over, hearing the last part of the conversation and decided to speak up, "Well that's good to hear. We wouldn't want anyone to think that we suck. I mean now, since we are actually getting kind of big," she said letting that statement hang in the air for a little bit, before she decided to continue. "So where are you from anyways," she asked eyes full of fake curiosity as she turned to the taller man in the room and took a seat across from him on a reclining chair, making sure that he didn't get too close to Kagome.
Seeing her sit down and trying to join in the conversation, InuYasha had to clench his fist, 'this is really starting to get annoying.'
After a few seconds, he felt the tension leave his body. He turned to Ayame, faking brightness to the girl. "Well originally I am from here," InuYasha said pointing to the ground. He than turned back to Kagome to continue, "but I moved to the states a few years back and lived there up until a couple of months ago." He leaned back and placed his hands behind his head, showing the girls that he was completely comfortable around them.
After a few seconds passed InuYasha continued, "I had to get away from it." He shook his head and moved his hands on his slightly parted knees as his head fell a little, looking as if he was just tired of it all. He saw Rin and his date walking towards them out of the corner of his eye. "I am in the entertainment industry also, but people in the states go crazy over celebrities."
He smirked a little, looking up at no one in particular, and he continued, "So I decided to lay low for a while." He finished completely satisfied that he gloated enough about himself, but not too much so that they would be asking for more.
'In three, two, one…'
"What? You were in the bizz over in the states," Rin exclaimed, coming fully to the circle the others put themselves in. She plopped down between InuYasha and where Kagome was still sitting on the side of the couch.
"Dang you have to be good!" Rin stated as she turned to face an awkward looking InuYasha.
InuYasha, couldn't believe that this chick just launch herself at him. He looked up at her and saw her raise a quizzical eyebrow at him. 'It probably has something to do with the fact that she is practically sitting on my lap,' InuYasha thought as he tried to inch a little away from the hyperactive girl.
Rin not really understanding the man that she was sitting beside, just shrugged her shoulders and continued her little rant. "So what did you do? Sing? Produce? Write? Act? Come on tell us," she replied excitedly.
InuYasha let out an awkward chuckle when the tiny girl erupted in questions. 'But I knew it would happen,' he thought to himself, and he did. These situations were like clockwork. Predictable.
"Well I did a little this and a little of that," InuYasha said as he was still slowly trying to inch his way away from the girl. After he was sure that he placed enough room between him and the girl he continued, "You know nothing too big."
InuYasha took a moment to pause in his speech, trying to get a feel of those around him. He really didn't want to seem like a blabber mouth, but he also wanted to make sure to leave a good impression.
When he felt all human eyes still hopelessly focused on him, he smiled a little and continued, "but big enough that I had to get my own security team… to make sure no weird fan girls tried to molest me, while I walked by or went to eat, or anything like that." He looked around when he was done and saw all non-demons nodding their heads in agreement. Everyone that is, except for Kagome who had this confused look on her face.
"Wow that's funny," Kagome cut in with a little raise of her right eyebrow. All others interested in what she had to say, immediately turned to look in her direction. She looked to the ground to think for a second, and then looked back up to lock eyes with InuYasha. She ignored all other questioning stares she got from her friends, "because I've never heard of you before. You did say your name is Takahashi InuYasha ," she asked him with a little wave of her hand, when she got a hesitant, but affirmative nod from him she continued, "yeah doesn't ring a bell."
InuYasha almost grunted when he heard Kagome doubt him, 'Who does this chick think she is?'
Everyone was loving the fact that he was from the states. He had them all eating out of the palm of his hand. But this girl. Kagome. She wasn't taking his crap. It was almost like she was trying to get a rise out of him. Trying to test him. Pull his leg even. 'Well two can play that game, you think you're smart wench. Wait and find out!'
When InuYasha didn't respond on time, Kagome did a little victory dance in her head.
'So this guy thinks that he is all that and a bag of chips. Well I got something for him. He will have to work his butt off to get me to believe him,'she thought while glancing in Sango's direction, who gave a nod and a small chuckle. Sango knew what was to come, and she was going to love every second of it.
See the thing about Kagome that he doesn't know is that besides the fact that she is nice, innocent, and one of the best friends anyone could ever ask for, when she sees a guy who thinks every girl should bow at their feet… she puts up a fight and makes their life a living hell.
'And then,' Sango thought dreamily, 'they either fall in love or… never speak to each other again,' Sango reflected to herself and hoped beyond hope that it was the former and not the latter, so for once she could rub it in her friends face that she was right.
When InuYasha thought enough time had passed to let everyone think to themselves, he began to answer Kagome's question. "Well, I didn't use my real name," he answered easily with a little shrug of his shoulders. He turned to face Kagome, with cocky grin on his face, "I have to protect myself and all, so my agent came up with my name," he stated as he once again pulled his arms behind his head, as his eyes closed, letting everyone know that the question didn't faze him in the slightest. He popped the eye closest to Kagome open as he finished answering, "But as I stated before, you probably have not heard of me, because I only did small things."
He removed his hands from behind his head, and he placed his arms to rest comfortably over his knees. He looked to the other four women in the room, "only people living in the US would have known about me," he said while hoping that she would apologize for being so blunt and not even thinking through what she said.
Kagome was a little caught off guard by his answer and was mad at herself for forgetting that little bit of information that he wasn't really that big, and also the fact that a lot of actors and such didn't use their real names. However, she was set on a goal, and once it was set… it could never be moved,
"Oh my apologies great lord of the states. I didn't mean to be rude and then look ignorant. I was just wondering why you would say something in the first place, when we would have no idea who you were from the beginning." Kagome chided a little angry that he had gotten the better of her.
Ayame, Rin, and Miroku looked at each other. They knew the only time Kag's showed this side was when she wanted to take a big man down, and my what a big arrogant man this was.
Ayame had to chuckle a little, beginning to think that keeping the hanyou from Kagome wouldn't be a problem, 'she will take care of this all by herself.'
"Oh, well it's quite all right," InuYasha stated feeling a little angry. He looked over to Kagome and finished his reply, "Higurashi, I was just responding to the question Ogawa gave me on where I was from and also threw in there what I did," he stated, voice starting to rise at the woman who just couldn't learn to back off.
He turned away from her, crossing his hands over his chest and let out a nice long Keh. "I am sorry that my admission of the truth would find such strong judgment on your part," InuYasha barked out the last of the reply. He locked eyes with her, and continued, "I won't let it happen again."
To say that he was pissed was a joke. This chick was really grinding his gears. He might just have to go back on his new prize...'No that won't happen. I will break her and make her mine'
He would play her little game…for now…
"Well I guess I will let it pass this time," Kagome said. Turning away from him, she was satisfied that she got the rise she wanted from him. She waited a few seconds and turned back to look him straight on, "since I just met you and all, but would you please excuse us." She made to get up and looked to the other girls to follow her lead, "we are late for our midnight rehearsal." Kagome left it hanging. There was no need to be nice to that cocky bastard. He deserved everything he had coming to him, 'Men get on my nerves that act like that!'
"It was nice meeting you, Onizuka," Kagome said, holding her hand out for the other girl to take a hold of. Haruhi took it and gave it a small but giddy shake. After the unsaid amount of time passed, Kagome let go of the other girl's hand, "I do hope we have the opportunity to see each other again in the future."
Kagome completely ignored the hand that InuYasha held out for her and turned to Haruhi once more. "Are you staying for our rehearsal? You can if you like," Kagome asked turning all the charm on the female beside him.
"Oh we would love to stay. Thank you for inviting us," Haruhi answered without noticing how tense InuYasha became with the thought of staying a little longer in Kagomes' presence that night. He kind of just wanted to go to her place, stay the night and then move on without any type of distractions.
'Kagome is being a little brat right now, and I would really love to get out of here.' He thought with a little downward sigh. 'She is going to be hard to get,' he thought as he looked at the girl whispering something to Sango. 'She will be harder to get, if I don't get Hurahi off my back,' he pondered while looking to the girl next to him. He saw how she really wanted to stay – how much happiness was in her eyes at the thought of having such an honor of just being asked, and he couldn't say no. So with a shake of his head up and down, he told her that it was okay that they stayed.
"Okay well just take a seat. We have decided to play a special song. We left it out of our arrangement earlier, but I think now would be as good a time as any," Kagome said while walking towards the mini stage in the VIP room. "Okay girls you know what song we should play, right?" Kagome had to get confirmation that they knew and with a nod of their heads, all was settled and each one went to their appropriate spots on the stage.
Within a couple of seconds the sound of Sango scratching a record could be heard in the room and then Kagome's voice rang out through the nearly empty hall.
'Remember the feelings, remember the day
My stone heart was breaking
My love ran away'
Drums could faintly be heard in the background as Ayame began to strum her way into the song. The beat started to get more pronounced as the song moved forward.
InuYasha had to admit that he liked the beats of techno music, but he didn't ever think that he could endure it for too long, 'that's a laugh…just thinking about it makes me gag.'
He looked up to see Higurashi starting to dance and move freely to the beat, and had to wonder, if he saw that every time he heard techno music… he might have to make an exception.
Kagome stole a glance in Takahashi's direction to see if she got the wanted reaction and sure enough, she did. To say that he looked shocked was an understatement.
'He probably thinks that I will drop at his feet. What is his problem anyways? He has one heck of an attitude.'
To say that InuYasha was taken aback was an understatement, 'what the hell is she thinking? Does she think this is funny? That it is a contest?' Seeing her lock eyes with him, he then realized that she was doing just that…messing with him.
'Two can play that game,' he vowed to her as the music gave way to the second verse.
Miroku had to chuckle at himself as he watched Higurashi flaunting her stuff on stage for InuYasha to see, and he knew that his friend was watching. 'Higurashi will never know when to quit, and this is just the song to get under InuYasha's skin. I wonder what their quarrel was about earlier anyways?' He thought as he placed a finger to his chin, but it was no good. He knew trying to figure out the two of them was fruitless, so with a sigh he hoped that this situation would work out without anyone getting pushed the wrong way.
Sango looked up at Kagome and laughed. She loved this song, and Kagome only played it when there was someone they knew that was so cocky he needed to get hit where it hurts. She looked back to Ayame, and they shared a smile, 'no doubt Ayame thought the same thing.'
She then looked to Sakamoto and saw his eyes fasten unto hers, and her breath caught in her throat. 'How is it that he can do that to me with only one look,'she thought as she quickly glanced down, as her cheeks began to once again heat up. 'No Sango... you don't like him,' she tried to admonish herself, 'you have just thought he was a major cutie ever since he first started following you guys.' She shook her head, not believing a word. 'Yeah and Ayame doesn't love Yoshida'.
InuYasha had to give the girls a nice applause. He really liked the performance, and he had to snicker at the fact that Higurashi was acting all prissy. However, she was her. How could he explain it. Something about her was different somehow then all the other girls he had been around…and not only that, she reminded him so much of his first girlfriend it wasn't even funny, they are probably exactly the same too. 'Well at least with the way she has been acting my old girlfriend was a lot nicer,' he hung his head at the thought. She would probably be the first and only girl to accept him for what he really was, but he would never let anyone know how misunderstood he truly was.
'Won't you be my bad boy, be my man
Be my week-end lover
But don't be my friend
You can be my bad boy
But understand
That I don't need you again
No I don't need you again'
Kagome looked out at her audience once more and was surprised to see the usually cocky guy looking down. 'Serves him right for being such an ass. There is no way I would ever go out with a guy like that,' she thought confidently to herself.
'Sorry Sango, I mean you were right when you said he was hot,' Kagome thought looking again over to the suddenly solemn man. 'But that is where it ends,' she promised, as she let the beat wash over her. Takahashi looked back up to the stage, but didn't look at her.
'He is the most hard-headed, egotistical man I have ever met in my life,' she continue as she reflected back to his attitude from before. 'There is no way, no one on heaven or earth will be making me go after that guy. His temper is horrible, and he walks around like girls owe him something. He certainly does uphold the title of being a bachelor.'
InuYasha finally locked eyes with Higurashi, and she was caught off guard when she saw sadness in his eyes, 'Maybe there is something deeper here. Something that I am over looking. Alright Takahashi, let's see what is really pushing your buttons.'

As soon as the show was over, InuYasha decided that he wanted to get to his bouzo friend and say hey. He looked to his date and grabbed her hand while pulling her casually behind him.
"InuYasha, baby, where are we going," she asked in a mildly irritated tone.
InuYasha had to catch himself before he threw the girl across the floor. She was really getting irritating, "I saw one of my friends before the show, and I wanted to say hey. Why is there anything wrong with that?" He about rolled his eyes as he barked the last of his reply.
The girl had to hold her shock of surprise back,'he really just yelled at me.'
"Why no. I was just wondering why my hand has to be pulled with such force that I am having a hard time walking in my five inch heels," she said through clenched teeth. The bitterness in her tone accompanied the venom in her voice.
InuYasha halted at the reminder, 'what am I doing? I want to get laid, don't I?'
And here he was pissing the girl off so much that he could smell the anger beginning to radiate off her well developed form.
He abruptly stopped making the mildly irate female behind him run straight into his backside. Before she could fall and make a fool of herself, InuYasha caught her around the waist, while bringing her back to rest comfortably on her heels. When she finally reached earth again, she noticed that she was staring into the most beautiful eyes given to any man on the planet.
'Why are his eyes such a strange color,'she wondered briefly, though not the first time.
"You okay," he asked. His eyes focusing on her brown orbs.
She mildly shook her head and wondered why she was in his arms in the first place. She didn't remember anything. She was locked in place by his gaze, but suddenly, she leaned up and placed a hungry kiss to his lips.
His lips were soft and warm. They held a pull to them that called to her. She knew once she got caught, she would never be able to get out of this stupor.
To say that InuYasha was shocked was an understatement.
Yes, he was used to women fawning over him, but he was so caught up in her scent, that it took him valuable moments to realize that she had him in a breathless, or what she would consider… breathless kiss.
Her scent change so fast. From worry. To fear. To confusion…and finally to arousal, that he was just getting to the second one…when she planted her full lips on his.
It also didn't help matters any that he was scooping out the club, when she did it either, but that is neither here nor there.
'At least I got her back to where I want her,' he thought with a little imaginary pat on the back.
No one else would know that he got caught off guard, so to any other man he was viewed as a pro, and no one would know the difference.
"Takahashi Inu…InuYasha ? Is that you?"
InuYasha almost inwardly fell over from the shock that someone snuck up on him without him noticing. He would have to remember to not get lost in his thoughts next time.
So reluctantly he pulled away from the girl, and turned his head to the man whom he had his intent on going to find.
"Sakamoto, how is it going man? I haven't seen you since high school," he left off with an air or confusion, thinking silently back to make sure that he was correct.
"What have you been up to," InuYasha asked while making his way from the girl beside him, to his lifelong best friend. A huge smile in place on his normally cocky face.
"I've been good my friend," Miroku answered truthfully. Smiling he continued, "Just touring along with the band that played here tonight. I'm their manager b—"
"Don't let that pervert tell you something that isn't true," a woman said busting into the conversation.
"He isn't our manager. He is our groupie," she ranted on, stopping when she got next to him. "We just let him hang out 'cause he won't leave us alone," she continued looking mildly irritated while rolling her eyes.
"Kimura, you wound me so," Miroku said to his own defense. "Higurashi told me, herself, that I was the manager, and that having a male groupie is just 'kinda shocking'," he said while holding quotations around the statement that gave their friend the creeps.
"Well, if you hadn't tried to sneak in our hotel in the middle of the night, while wearing a flippin' bunny costume... we might have been a little nicer to you," the woman, InuYasha found out to be named Kimura, fired back.
Miroku placed his hand over his lowered face, sad… that his friend had to hear the misrepresentation of what really happened.
"Kimura…I have already been through this before. I thought that on Easter... a person is suppose to sit on the bunny's lap and take a picture with him. I mean I even brought the multi-colored eggs with me. What more can I give you," he asked sounding tired of the whole ordeal.
"You should have thought of that, before you busted into our room in the middle of the night… carrying a camera in bunny attire," Kimura shot back. "Gods Sakamoto, you have to be one of the most—"
InuYasha, feeling like it was time that the two of them shut up… decided to slap his friend in the back of the head. He was never one for not being the center of attention anyways.
"Damn Miroku, I thought you were bad in high school, but apparently I was wrong," InuYasha said with his eyes closed, shaking his head in dislike.
He then looked to Kimura, and still mildly irritated that they didn't notice his presence, walked up to her and placed a smile on his face, "Forgive my friend for his retarded antics. He has always been like that. I am Takahashi InuYasha . Miroku and I went to school together, and from what I can gather you are Kimura, right," he asked while holding his hand out to her.
Kimura had to get off of cloud nine. This man in front of her was beautiful, and no words could describe how confident he was. Just that he was so confident… he was alluring.
She shook her head like a little school girl at first, and had to catch the drool that was longing to fall out of her mouth. However, when she noticed what she was doing… she had to gawk at herself. She quickly schooled her features and placed a big smile on her face.
"Why yes, I am Kimura Sango," she replied gripping his firm hand. "Sorry about earlier. Sakamoto here can be a big pain in the butt, and I have to remember to keep his lies down to a minimum, before people start believing the crap that he pulls out of his mouth," she replied giving InuYasha a nice smile.
After a couple of seconds, she glanced over to Sakamoto and saw that he had impending doom written on his face… directed towards Takahashi for some strange reason. "Sakamoto, is something the matter? You look a little perturbed," Sango asked with a quirked eyebrow.
Miroku quickly glanced to Sango and wiped the scowl that he didn't know he had been making off his face before replying, "Why, whatever do you mean my lovely, Kimura?"
She had to roll her eyes at the comment, but shifted her glance to the side when she heard InuYasha chuckling. "What's so funny Takahashi", she had to ask, but was mildly irritated that he interrupted her torment for the pervert.
"Oh nothing I was just—"
Everyone turned to the irate looking female who just very loudly cleared her throat, "Inu honey, you haven't forgotten about me have you?"
InuYasha immediately scowled when he heard her pet name for him, 'there was only one other woman that called me by that name.' He hated to hear it, but he also knew that he forgot her, and so this time he would let it pass.
"Oh, I'm sorry baby. I just got so caught up in the conversation," he said in faked happiness. "Anyways as you might have heard, this is my old high school buddy, Sakamoto Miroku ," he said pointing a finger in his direction. "And this is his girlfriend, Kimura —"
"WHAT?" Sango angrily spat. "Me and that pervert are definitely not a couple. I wouldn't go out with that dim witted jackass if he was the last man on earth. And another thing—"
"Kimura," Miroku quickly interjected, "I think my friend gets the idea. I believe y—"
"No I don't really understand yet. Why don't you enlighten me a little bit further," InuYasha joked while trying to encourage Kimura to further explain to him the idea of why dating the pervert is unspeakable.
"I am so misunderstood," Miroku finally said in an airy sigh.
The banter was once again rerouted from the almost eminent retort that was coming from Kimura, when Takahashi's date laughed at the other couples antics. "My, you two are funny. Oh, and I haven't had an opportunity to properly introduce myself. I am Onizuka Hurahi," Hurahi said slightly lowering her head in respect for the two in front of her.
"It's such a pleasure to be meeting you all." Happiness was evident from her voice, even though everyone else thought she was just putting it on a little thick.
"You have been one of my favorite bands for some time now. Where are the other three," Haruhi asked with a finger slinking back and forth to show the confusion she felt when she didn't see the other girls present.
Kimura and Miroku quickly shrugged their shoulders to the back, "They are just hanging out in the back. They like to practice and play one more time, before we leave. I went out here to look for the pervert, because we couldn't find where he stuck Ayame's sticks to the drums," Sango answered for them both. She then turned towards said man and asked, "By the way…where are they? I totally forgot about them until just now."
Miroku scratched his head before replying, "I am pretty sure that I placed them by Higurashi's backpack, so we wouldn't forget 'em. You know how she takes that bag with her everywhere she goes," Miroku chuckled lightly.
"Yeah she does," Sango said smirking a little as well.
"Okay then," she said turning towards the other two. "I will head back there to go get them, but probably as long as I have been gone… they found them by know," Kimura said laughing a little.
"Nice to meet you guys!" Sango waved at the two in front of her and then turned to go backstage where the rest of the band was supposedly getting ready to play a couple more songs.
Miroku looked over to his friend after his beauty left and was surprised to see longing in his eyes. He took a couple seconds to ponder why his friend might be thinking, so he went over the conversation he just had with Kimura and came to a conclusion.
Miroku finally understood the desire for what it was and acted upon it in the first way that he knew. "Would the two of you like to see them in a private session? I am the manager after all," he replied with a smirk on his face.
"I do have connections. It will also give you an opportunity to meet the rest of the band. How 'bout it," he asked. His eyes hopeful that they would take the offer.
Onizuka was the first to respond, "Really, you would do that for us?"
She started acting all giddy, "I would love to!"
She turned to face InuYasha fully, grasping his hand in the both of hers, "Do you want to come too, InuYasha? I really want you to be with me," she asked with big beautiful green eyes.
InuYasha was glad that his friend came up with the idea. He wanted to get a chance to meet that sexy singer that he laid eyes on for the first time not two hours ago. "Yeah, I will go with you," he said flashing a grin.
"I can't have you walking around without me anyways," he replied with an air of cockiness once again back in his voice. He was going to love meeting this new prize of his, and he knew that she would be too nice to say no.

Sango got into the back room, and she was shocked to see toilet paper and confetti all over the couch and the flat screen that they hid in the back. Not to mention all over every other piece of furniture that was in the room.
"What the crap went on back here," she asked a little peeved now that the cleanup was going to come out of their check they got for the night.
"Oh, you missed it," Ayame bubbled up. "Rin got tired of sitting around when we were looking for my sticks," she pointed to the girl on the floor in front of the tv. "So she went into the bathroom grabbed some toilet paper and started rollin' all of Sakamoto's stuff."
"After that she got bored and decided to get some cans of silly string," she paused in her speech cracking up a little at the whole situation, "and confetti… and went over to where Kags was sitting on the couch and sprayed a bunch in her hair."
"Kagome fell off the couch but got right back up and tackled her," at this the other girls started to laugh too.
"And then… I decided to try to intervene like the kind person that I am," she told them seriously with a little wink.
"And they both looked at me with this eerie glint in their eyes," she said laughing again.
"And ganged up on me," Ayame finally finished her tirade of what appeared to be one heck of a time, while trying to pull silly string out of her red hair.
"Well, I hate to say that I am sad that I missed it, but I'm not," Sango fired at the other three girls in front of her. "You guys know that they are going to take this out of our pay," she asked with an arm waving in the general direction of the building.
"And Kagome," Sango said to Kagome, who was the recipient of the hard stare. "I can't believe that you helped her," she said shaking her head.
"I thought we talked about this," Sango said huffing. Her shoulders falling a bit. "And why are you guys getting a scary glint in your eyes..." she trailed off and started running in the direction she came from, when she noticed her friends intent.
"No you don't… ah," Sango yelled as she was blasted with silly string coming from three different angles.
Kagome got Sango right in the side of the face. She couldn't help it. At first she felt bad that Sango saw how much of a mess they made, but the more the girl talked the more she decided that she wouldn't complain as much if she was also part of the fun. So she gave Rin and Ayame a nod to tell them her objective, and once Sango got to the end of her rant and started figuring something was up she thought it was the perfect time to attack.
Sango grabbed an abandoned can of silly string and faced her opponents. "I can't believe you attacked me when my back was turned. You will pay for this, Higurashi!" She said in a sarcastic, aghast manner while spraying her friend on the chest. She then turned to Ayame and Rin and sprayed them as well.

Five minutes later and the room was twice as bad as it was when Sango first walked in, but she didn't care; she had fun making the mess. "Oh, so Sakamoto has a really cute friend, Kagome," Sango said walking towards the couch in the back room. "I think he is just your type," she said sliding down between Ayame and Kagome on the couch with Rin two feet in front of her on the floor.
"Oh and what makes you say that," Kagome asked. Now curious about what brought this sudden turn of events, and had to wonder why her friends loved to tell her who she should and shouldn't date.
Sango smiled at her and gave her a wink, "because I know how much you love a bad boy, and believe me, he had bad boy written all over his face, and he had the most amazing amber eyes."
Kagome almost jerked upright at the color that brought her so much flutter from before. 'Amber, did she… just say amber?'
"I don't know, Sango. You aren't the greatest at telling me who I should date," Kagome replied making sure to keep enthusiasm away from her demeanor, and her voice cool. "I mean remember, Yoshida," she asked raising an eyebrow.
"Well at least Ayame got a chance to meet her true love—"
"Akitoki," Kagome cut in.
"Well how was I supposed to know that he didn't have enough balls to be called a man," Sango defended, "I mean I thought—"
"Nakamura," Kagome asked her friend. Voice rising a little higher from the smirk that was forming on her lips. She was really trying not to laugh and her friends adamant behavior.
"Okay. Okay, I get your point," Sango said feeling a little defeated. She shook her head, and locked eyes with Kagome. A little smirk playing on her face, "but I am right about this one."
"Oh," Kagome said faking interest with a little smile of her own on her face.
Shaking her head in the affirmative, Sango continued, "He has this bimbo with him tonight. But I know for a fact, that he won't stay with her," she said laughing a little.
"And what makes you so sure about that," Kagome asked, actually getting a little interested in what her friend had to say.
"I mean… all girls know a hoe when they see one," Sango said, pausing a little with a huge grin on her face.
Kagome just raised an eyebrow at this statement. She really was not catching on to what her friend was trying to communicate.
Sango, seeing her friends' confusion, just shook her head and let out a little giggle, "Come on, Kagome. Are you really that slow?"
Kagome lifted her shoulders, showing that she really didn't get it, "Just continue on with the story."
Sango just rolled her eyes, "Well anyways, you know a hoe when you see one," she restated the phrase. "And let me tell you that girl was a hoe," she said, starting to laugh.
The other girls let out a giggle as well.
Sango, after she got her composer back together, decided to continue, "And I swear if he didn't think Sakamoto and I were together—"
"He thought you and Sakamoto were together," Rin cut in with a bundle of laughter. "That has to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard."
"It is not," Sango interjected. "Why would anyone think that I am with that pervert? I mean look at him, he—"
"Actually Sango," Ayame cut her off. "Kagome and I have been telling you… for months now that you guys should get together," she said pointing to her friend and herself.
Kagome agreed completely and began to shake her head, "I mean he isn't as bad as he used to be. Haven't you noticed that he is only perverted around you," she asked pointing to Sango, trying to make her think about the question she placed in front of her.
"And you can't deny that you like him too," Ayame piped up.
Whatever elation Sango received from thinking that the man had stopped his perverted antics with others was crushed in the butt when she heard her friend voice her hidden secret.
Her eyes widened, 'great and I can feel my cheeks burning.'
"Excuse me, but I have no such feelings for that pervert," she said trying to hide the crimson blush on her cheeks.
"Yeah, yeah… and Ayame doesn't love Yoshida," Rin said, making fun of how stupid that last comment was to all in the room.
Kagome laughed at the blunt statement, all the while nodding her head. She completely agreed. No matter how lame of a comparison it might be.
Sango, knowing that she wasn't going to win the argument, decided to change subjects, "I do believe that it is time for our practice, so if you guys stop messing around we can get it done and get out of here."
Miroku stepped to the door just in time to hear Sango finish speaking. He glanced around the room and saw the snickering face of Rin, the hopeless look on Ayame's, and the annoyed look on Kagome's face.
'I wonder what I missed,' he thought as he stepped more into the room.
"Hey guys,” but then he stopped. “What happened in here?" he asked once he finally got a good look at the room.
Sango immediately jumped around upon hearing his voice and hoped that he hadn't heard everything that they talked about.
'Saying that I don't like him is nothing new,'she reassured herself.
"Oh sorry about that. We got a little bored and decided to have some fun with the toilet paper and confetti, but if you want to blame someone... Rin started it," Sango said pointing at Rin and trying to get the girls grins off her.
And it worked.
"Hey, I didn't hear you complaining when you decided to go all out on what I didn't get of Sakamoto's stuff," Rin got in to defend herself.
"What," Miroku exclaimed, walking over to his possessions to see the beating that they went through while he was gone. Kneeling beside his blue bag, he pulled out his black jacket, along with his PSP and was glad to see that the only tenure that really became infested with silly string was his backpack.
"Why is it always my possessions that gets attacked," Miroku inquired more to himself than all the others in the room.
"What did I ever do to deserve such a harsh punishment?" He asked in a downcast manner knowing that it happened all the time.
"Well," Kagome started. "If you weren't such a uncanny stalker that walked around in a bunny outfit with a camera… at like three in the morning; it might not have been so bad," she said giving him a little grin, showing it was all in good fun.
"I guess you won't ever be able to live that down," InuYasha decided to cut in. He wanted a chance to meet this, Kagome, girl.
Miroku sighed, "I think you're right my friend."
All the girls turned when the mystery man spoke, and then turned questioning glances to Sango to ask if this was the man that she was talking about. With an affirmative nod of her head, the girls then glanced up to Miroku.
Ayame locked gazes with him, and could tell from her distance that this man was a demon, and if her nose didn't lie, 'Hanyou.'
He smiled in her direction, allowing his demonic aura to strengthen for just a moment, and then immediately lowered it back to its dormant state.
'So there is a wolf hanging out with a bunch of human girls,' he thought as he stepped up next to Miroku.
Ayame was a little taken aback by the strength of his aura.
'How can a half-demon be that strong?' Her eyes widened when she recognized his scent, 'Inu No Taisho's son.'
InuYasha felt his patience slipping and decided to take it upon himself to be introduced.
"Well, I am sorry that my friend is unable to introduce me," he said giving Miroku a little jab in the shoulder. "I am Takahashi InuYasha" he said holding his hand out, but then looked down when someone nudged him and noticed… 'what was her name… Hiraho?' looking up expectantly at him.
Sensing that he wasn't getting it, Hurahi turned the charm on and playfully slapped her man. She rolled her eyes a little and motioned to the man beside her, "Inu, here tends to space out a bit and forgets when others are with him. I am Onizuka Hurahi," Hurahi said, placing her hand over her heart.
InuYasha just rubbed his hand over his face, as she, once again used his hated nickname, 'Who the hell does she think she is?'
Hurahi, oblivious to the thoughts going on inside the head of the man beside her continued. "I just wanted to tell you that your show tonight was amazing," she said looking to the four women in front of her. "I have been a fan for a while, but this was actually the first time I was able to go," she said the excitement oozing out of her.
Haruhi turned her head slightly towards InuYasha as she continued her little rant, "Inu baby here, let me pick the date for once. Isn't that right baby?" She finished, leaning her head on his shoulder.
He knew why she did it, but he hated when girls had the audacity to act all like they were his girlfriend. He didn't view any girl as that. No one. He viewed his dates as sex objects.
'Make that like one time sex objects 'cause after that they started calling and wanting to hang out all the time. It was just too much damn work,' he thought to himself.
He made up the rule long ago. After one time he ditched 'em, and then maybe when he was feeling generous he would go out with them a couple more times. Just in case he didn't have a date for that night and would be bored.
He rolled his eyes at her but decided to go with it, 'whatever she wants to think.'
He leaned down and kissed her forehead, "Yeah, baby."
Miroku, finally starting to remember his manners, and getting the hint that he needed to introduce the rest of the band to his friend, motioned for InuYasha and his date to follow him, as he led them to the band.
"Okay. This lovely lady on the far side of the couch is the drummer, Ogawa," he said pointing to the red haired girl on the couch. Ayame, still mildly shocked about who she was dealing with, shook her head, and politely lowered her head in response.
InuYasha fixed his eyes on the girl that was looking hard in his direction, 'Ogawa, huh.'
Miroku oblivious to the clairvoyant communication between the two just continued on with the introductions.
"The lovely one in the middle is Miss Kimura… whom you have already met," he said pointing to the woman with the fiery personality from earlier. Miroku gave her a wink, and Sango just let out a big puff of air and turned the other way. Miroku, not paying attention to this continued on with the line.
"The one sitting on the floor looking for someone to tackle is Shimizu," Miroku said, laughing when the girl started to make a fuss at being identified in such a way.
He shook his head and turned to the one yet to be spoken for. "And the young beauty sitting on the side of the couch closest to us is the bands singer, Higurashi," Kagome lowered her head a little and smiled.
At the same time, all four girls walked over to greet their guest, and Kagome could tell that this man in front of her had to be the one she saw during the show. 'His eyes glowed in the same unearthly way.'
"It's nice to meet you both," she said extending her hand out to them. InuYasha was the first to take her hand, and she was taken aback at how her body reacted to a simple hand shake. She could've sworn that she felt electricity from his touch. Shaking her head, she let her grip on Takahashi's hand go, and turned to Onizuka to give her a warm welcome as well.
The other girls followed in turn, each one giving Takahashi a little extra lingering of a touch and then moving on to the woman beside him.
Ayame, last to shake the other demons hand, held her hand out to him and firmly grasped it in her own as he held his palm out to her. "Be careful who you mess with mutt," she whispered so only he could hear.
"Shove off, wolf," InuYasha replied equally as quiet. "I really don't think you want your little secret to get out. Now, do you?" He threatened when the girl just wouldn't back down.
"You wouldn't dare," she replied, shocked that he would say something, "it goes against the code."
"What the hell do I care about codes," he replied flippantly, but still quietly so no one else would know what they are talking about.
They were starting to have a death glare staring match when—
"Oh my gosh, I love your outfit," Rin exclaimed to Haruhi.
Haruhi, a little flustered at the extra attention, looked down at her outfit, "Well thank you, Shimizu. I was thinking the same thing about yours," she said pointing to the girl in front of her. "Where did you get your jeans anyway? I haven't seen that designers stuff around here at all lately," Haruhi asked, being led over to the table and chair set by Rin.
Ayame and InuYasha separated but still kept a close watch on each other.
Kagome not ever liking to be silent for long decided to join a conversation of her own, she turned back to InuYasha… a little smile in place, "I hope the performance wasn't too boring for you, Takahashi. I know a lot of the time guys with girls only come because of their dates, but none the less."
Waiting for his reply she decided to sit down on the arm of the couch, feeling a little too light headed at the moment, 'I wonder what that's about'.
InuYasha shrugged his shoulders, glad that he didn't have to deal with wolf at the moment, "Keh, it wasn't horrible or anything," he walked closer to her and sat on the other side of the couch, so she would have to turn to face him, when she fully turned to him he continued, "I am just not into this type of music."
Seeing the eyebrow raise on her face he decided to explain himself, "I don't go for the techno stuff. Unless I am at a club or something, but you guys pulled it off pretty good," he said smiling a little at her.
Ayame walked over, hearing the last part of the conversation and decided to speak up, "Well that's good to hear. We wouldn't want anyone to think that we suck. I mean now, since we are actually getting kind of big," she said letting that statement hang in the air for a little bit, before she decided to continue. "So where are you from anyways," she asked eyes full of fake curiosity as she turned to the taller man in the room and took a seat across from him on a reclining chair, making sure that he didn't get too close to Kagome.
Seeing her sit down and trying to join in the conversation, InuYasha had to clench his fist, 'this is really starting to get annoying.'
After a few seconds, he felt the tension leave his body. He turned to Ayame, faking brightness to the girl. "Well originally I am from here," InuYasha said pointing to the ground. He than turned back to Kagome to continue, "but I moved to the states a few years back and lived there up until a couple of months ago." He leaned back and placed his hands behind his head, showing the girls that he was completely comfortable around them.
After a few seconds passed InuYasha continued, "I had to get away from it." He shook his head and moved his hands on his slightly parted knees as his head fell a little, looking as if he was just tired of it all. He saw Rin and his date walking towards them out of the corner of his eye. "I am in the entertainment industry also, but people in the states go crazy over celebrities."
He smirked a little, looking up at no one in particular, and he continued, "So I decided to lay low for a while." He finished completely satisfied that he gloated enough about himself, but not too much so that they would be asking for more.
'In three, two, one…'
"What? You were in the bizz over in the states," Rin exclaimed, coming fully to the circle the others put themselves in. She plopped down between InuYasha and where Kagome was still sitting on the side of the couch.
"Dang you have to be good!" Rin stated as she turned to face an awkward looking InuYasha.
InuYasha, couldn't believe that this chick just launch herself at him. He looked up at her and saw her raise a quizzical eyebrow at him. 'It probably has something to do with the fact that she is practically sitting on my lap,' InuYasha thought as he tried to inch a little away from the hyperactive girl.
Rin not really understanding the man that she was sitting beside, just shrugged her shoulders and continued her little rant. "So what did you do? Sing? Produce? Write? Act? Come on tell us," she replied excitedly.
InuYasha let out an awkward chuckle when the tiny girl erupted in questions. 'But I knew it would happen,' he thought to himself, and he did. These situations were like clockwork. Predictable.
"Well I did a little this and a little of that," InuYasha said as he was still slowly trying to inch his way away from the girl. After he was sure that he placed enough room between him and the girl he continued, "You know nothing too big."
InuYasha took a moment to pause in his speech, trying to get a feel of those around him. He really didn't want to seem like a blabber mouth, but he also wanted to make sure to leave a good impression.
When he felt all human eyes still hopelessly focused on him, he smiled a little and continued, "but big enough that I had to get my own security team… to make sure no weird fan girls tried to molest me, while I walked by or went to eat, or anything like that." He looked around when he was done and saw all non-demons nodding their heads in agreement. Everyone that is, except for Kagome who had this confused look on her face.
"Wow that's funny," Kagome cut in with a little raise of her right eyebrow. All others interested in what she had to say, immediately turned to look in her direction. She looked to the ground to think for a second, and then looked back up to lock eyes with InuYasha. She ignored all other questioning stares she got from her friends, "because I've never heard of you before. You did say your name is Takahashi InuYasha ," she asked him with a little wave of her hand, when she got a hesitant, but affirmative nod from him she continued, "yeah doesn't ring a bell."
InuYasha almost grunted when he heard Kagome doubt him, 'Who does this chick think she is?'
Everyone was loving the fact that he was from the states. He had them all eating out of the palm of his hand. But this girl. Kagome. She wasn't taking his crap. It was almost like she was trying to get a rise out of him. Trying to test him. Pull his leg even. 'Well two can play that game, you think you're smart wench. Wait and find out!'
When InuYasha didn't respond on time, Kagome did a little victory dance in her head.
'So this guy thinks that he is all that and a bag of chips. Well I got something for him. He will have to work his butt off to get me to believe him,'she thought while glancing in Sango's direction, who gave a nod and a small chuckle. Sango knew what was to come, and she was going to love every second of it.
See the thing about Kagome that he doesn't know is that besides the fact that she is nice, innocent, and one of the best friends anyone could ever ask for, when she sees a guy who thinks every girl should bow at their feet… she puts up a fight and makes their life a living hell.
'And then,' Sango thought dreamily, 'they either fall in love or… never speak to each other again,' Sango reflected to herself and hoped beyond hope that it was the former and not the latter, so for once she could rub it in her friends face that she was right.
When InuYasha thought enough time had passed to let everyone think to themselves, he began to answer Kagome's question. "Well, I didn't use my real name," he answered easily with a little shrug of his shoulders. He turned to face Kagome, with cocky grin on his face, "I have to protect myself and all, so my agent came up with my name," he stated as he once again pulled his arms behind his head, as his eyes closed, letting everyone know that the question didn't faze him in the slightest. He popped the eye closest to Kagome open as he finished answering, "But as I stated before, you probably have not heard of me, because I only did small things."
He removed his hands from behind his head, and he placed his arms to rest comfortably over his knees. He looked to the other four women in the room, "only people living in the US would have known about me," he said while hoping that she would apologize for being so blunt and not even thinking through what she said.
Kagome was a little caught off guard by his answer and was mad at herself for forgetting that little bit of information that he wasn't really that big, and also the fact that a lot of actors and such didn't use their real names. However, she was set on a goal, and once it was set… it could never be moved,
"Oh my apologies great lord of the states. I didn't mean to be rude and then look ignorant. I was just wondering why you would say something in the first place, when we would have no idea who you were from the beginning." Kagome chided a little angry that he had gotten the better of her.
Ayame, Rin, and Miroku looked at each other. They knew the only time Kag's showed this side was when she wanted to take a big man down, and my what a big arrogant man this was.
Ayame had to chuckle a little, beginning to think that keeping the hanyou from Kagome wouldn't be a problem, 'she will take care of this all by herself.'
"Oh, well it's quite all right," InuYasha stated feeling a little angry. He looked over to Kagome and finished his reply, "Higurashi, I was just responding to the question Ogawa gave me on where I was from and also threw in there what I did," he stated, voice starting to rise at the woman who just couldn't learn to back off.
He turned away from her, crossing his hands over his chest and let out a nice long Keh. "I am sorry that my admission of the truth would find such strong judgment on your part," InuYasha barked out the last of the reply. He locked eyes with her, and continued, "I won't let it happen again."
To say that he was pissed was a joke. This chick was really grinding his gears. He might just have to go back on his new prize...'No that won't happen. I will break her and make her mine'
He would play her little game…for now…
"Well I guess I will let it pass this time," Kagome said. Turning away from him, she was satisfied that she got the rise she wanted from him. She waited a few seconds and turned back to look him straight on, "since I just met you and all, but would you please excuse us." She made to get up and looked to the other girls to follow her lead, "we are late for our midnight rehearsal." Kagome left it hanging. There was no need to be nice to that cocky bastard. He deserved everything he had coming to him, 'Men get on my nerves that act like that!'
"It was nice meeting you, Onizuka," Kagome said, holding her hand out for the other girl to take a hold of. Haruhi took it and gave it a small but giddy shake. After the unsaid amount of time passed, Kagome let go of the other girl's hand, "I do hope we have the opportunity to see each other again in the future."
Kagome completely ignored the hand that InuYasha held out for her and turned to Haruhi once more. "Are you staying for our rehearsal? You can if you like," Kagome asked turning all the charm on the female beside him.
"Oh we would love to stay. Thank you for inviting us," Haruhi answered without noticing how tense InuYasha became with the thought of staying a little longer in Kagomes' presence that night. He kind of just wanted to go to her place, stay the night and then move on without any type of distractions.
'Kagome is being a little brat right now, and I would really love to get out of here.' He thought with a little downward sigh. 'She is going to be hard to get,' he thought as he looked at the girl whispering something to Sango. 'She will be harder to get, if I don't get Hurahi off my back,' he pondered while looking to the girl next to him. He saw how she really wanted to stay – how much happiness was in her eyes at the thought of having such an honor of just being asked, and he couldn't say no. So with a shake of his head up and down, he told her that it was okay that they stayed.
"Okay well just take a seat. We have decided to play a special song. We left it out of our arrangement earlier, but I think now would be as good a time as any," Kagome said while walking towards the mini stage in the VIP room. "Okay girls you know what song we should play, right?" Kagome had to get confirmation that they knew and with a nod of their heads, all was settled and each one went to their appropriate spots on the stage.
Within a couple of seconds the sound of Sango scratching a record could be heard in the room and then Kagome's voice rang out through the nearly empty hall.
'Remember the feelings, remember the day
My stone heart was breaking
My love ran away'
Drums could faintly be heard in the background as Ayame began to strum her way into the song. The beat started to get more pronounced as the song moved forward.
InuYasha had to admit that he liked the beats of techno music, but he didn't ever think that he could endure it for too long, 'that's a laugh…just thinking about it makes me gag.'
He looked up to see Higurashi starting to dance and move freely to the beat, and had to wonder, if he saw that every time he heard techno music… he might have to make an exception.
Kagome stole a glance in Takahashi's direction to see if she got the wanted reaction and sure enough, she did. To say that he looked shocked was an understatement.
'He probably thinks that I will drop at his feet. What is his problem anyways? He has one heck of an attitude.'
To say that InuYasha was taken aback was an understatement, 'what the hell is she thinking? Does she think this is funny? That it is a contest?' Seeing her lock eyes with him, he then realized that she was doing just that…messing with him.
'Two can play that game,' he vowed to her as the music gave way to the second verse.
Miroku had to chuckle at himself as he watched Higurashi flaunting her stuff on stage for InuYasha to see, and he knew that his friend was watching. 'Higurashi will never know when to quit, and this is just the song to get under InuYasha's skin. I wonder what their quarrel was about earlier anyways?' He thought as he placed a finger to his chin, but it was no good. He knew trying to figure out the two of them was fruitless, so with a sigh he hoped that this situation would work out without anyone getting pushed the wrong way.
Sango looked up at Kagome and laughed. She loved this song, and Kagome only played it when there was someone they knew that was so cocky he needed to get hit where it hurts. She looked back to Ayame, and they shared a smile, 'no doubt Ayame thought the same thing.'
She then looked to Sakamoto and saw his eyes fasten unto hers, and her breath caught in her throat. 'How is it that he can do that to me with only one look,'she thought as she quickly glanced down, as her cheeks began to once again heat up. 'No Sango... you don't like him,' she tried to admonish herself, 'you have just thought he was a major cutie ever since he first started following you guys.' She shook her head, not believing a word. 'Yeah and Ayame doesn't love Yoshida'.
InuYasha had to give the girls a nice applause. He really liked the performance, and he had to snicker at the fact that Higurashi was acting all prissy. However, she was her. How could he explain it. Something about her was different somehow then all the other girls he had been around…and not only that, she reminded him so much of his first girlfriend it wasn't even funny, they are probably exactly the same too. 'Well at least with the way she has been acting my old girlfriend was a lot nicer,' he hung his head at the thought. She would probably be the first and only girl to accept him for what he really was, but he would never let anyone know how misunderstood he truly was.
'Won't you be my bad boy, be my man
Be my week-end lover
But don't be my friend
You can be my bad boy
But understand
That I don't need you again
No I don't need you again'
Kagome looked out at her audience once more and was surprised to see the usually cocky guy looking down. 'Serves him right for being such an ass. There is no way I would ever go out with a guy like that,' she thought confidently to herself.
'Sorry Sango, I mean you were right when you said he was hot,' Kagome thought looking again over to the suddenly solemn man. 'But that is where it ends,' she promised, as she let the beat wash over her. Takahashi looked back up to the stage, but didn't look at her.
'He is the most hard-headed, egotistical man I have ever met in my life,' she continue as she reflected back to his attitude from before. 'There is no way, no one on heaven or earth will be making me go after that guy. His temper is horrible, and he walks around like girls owe him something. He certainly does uphold the title of being a bachelor.'
InuYasha finally locked eyes with Higurashi, and she was caught off guard when she saw sadness in his eyes, 'Maybe there is something deeper here. Something that I am over looking. Alright Takahashi, let's see what is really pushing your buttons.'
