A/N: Third chapter!

“Red? Or black? Or maybe green…I look good in green….but then again, he wears a lot of red...maybe he likes red?”

“Wear all of them—that way, you can't go wrong”

“Har har” Kagome pouted, throwing a blue shirt at Sango “You're supposed to be helping me not mocking me”

“Aww, but its too easy”

“Hush”

Sango laughed, finally pulling herself off the bed to look through the closet. After a bit of shuffling, she pulled out a jean skirt and a red long sleeved shirt.

“Dressy but casual with a touch of red”

Kagome looked at the clock with a sigh “I don't have much of a choice…he'll be here soon”

“Well, gee thanks. I try to help and all you say is “that'll do pig”?”

Kagome giggled, stepping out of her towel as she pulled on the clothes “You really need to stop watching Babe. I'm worried about you”

“And you really need to stop walking around this house naked” Ayame popped into the room, closing the door behind her “We all know you and this guy will eventually come to that—but don't give him a peep show just yet!”

“He's here?! Crap! Crap! Crap!” She quickly pulled on the shirt while pulling up her skirt at the same time she was stumbling in the bathroom “He said 8!”

“It is 8” Ayame confirmed

“That clock says—“

“Oh” Sango laughed nervously “I forgot, my alarm clock broke last week…hahaha….ooops?”

“Oops?!” Kagome made a disgruntled sound as she brushed her hair

“You look fine” Sango mused “You never were one to need an hour to get ready…”

“Arg!” Kagome threw the brush to dig threw Sango's closet in search of a purse.

“There's a downside to this tradition of using all of someone else's things on a first date” Ayame sighed, plopping down into the bed “Like, I haven't seen my favorite pink chemise since Sango's date in September”

“Here!” Kagome threw the garment at the girl, before stumbling out of the closet to fix her hair “How do I look?”

“Like you just had sex in a closet”

She frowned

“No, no. Guys totally go for that” Ayame added “Just get out there and make us proud!”

“As long as you two never pull something like last night again—horribly awkward. I don't know if I'll be able to look him in the face after that”

“Hey, we're making sure he knows not to mess with you” Sango said sharply “Just giving him a taste of what will happen if he hurts our little Kagome”

“Yea…you two—stay. I don't wanna scare him anymore than he is”

“Well he should be”

Kagome shook her head with a smile before flopping on the bed to embrace the girls as they returned the gesture.

“Wish me luck?”

“Much luck” the repeated instantly

With a great sigh, Kagome headed out of Sango's room to come to face with Inuyasha slumped in the stool he always went to. It made her smile that the one he always choice was hers…

“Hey”

He lifted his head, face instantly breaking up from scowl into smirk as he stood to meet her in her walk. She didn't miss the way his eyes looked over her in approval—thank you Sango!

“Hey yourself”

“Look, about—“

A finger pressed to her lips, causing her to blush and look up into his eyes “That's done with. Don't bring stuff back from the dead, alright?”

She nodded shyly, pushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear.

It was amazing that, after she accused him of being a liar and a creep, he was still so free and kind. She couldn't pick up on a touch of resentment in his eyes and it made her feel a bit guilty.

He wouldn't let her dwell on it though. With a quick move, he wrapped an arm around her to settle on her hip, causing her to jump slightly, as he pulled her to his side.

“Ready?”

She nodded with a blush as the two made their way out the front door, only to hear “You better be good to her , Inuyasha!” before they left.

Inuyasha snorted “Yea…they're too involved…”

“Yea” she smiled, leaning against him “But once they know you're not going to rape me and leave me in an alley, they'll lay off”

“Oh, so that's frowned upon?”

She made a face, elbowing him lightly as they walked down the hall.

Of course, Kagome knew she would never have made it past the next door without an inquisition. Right as they were passing, the door flung open as Koga blocked their path.

He crossed his arms, looking at the couple “What the fuck is this…?”

“This, wolf, is a date” Inuyasha replied coolly “Now back down, we'll be late for the show”

“Heh. Let's just get one thing straight Mutt Face. If you even try to hurt Kagome again, there will be no mercy, we clear”

“I never hurt her to begin with, asshole”

“Not the point—she was sad because of you. And if any pain comes from this, you will regret it”

“Koga!”

“Keh. It's fine Kagome. His threats don't mean shit, because it'll never come to that”

Inuyasha shoved past him, dragging Kagome along with as they entered the elevator.

“Better not” she heard Koga mumbled before the doors closed.

“Just an estimation—how many times will I be threatened tonight?”

Kagome gave a nervous laugh “Not too many…?”

“It must be fun having to go through this with every date…”

“Well, I don't go on many so…”

She blushed. Kikyo had once told her to never let a guy on to how experienced or inexperienced you were. It was part of the game, she had told her sister. Allow them to think what they want of you.

But, the way Inuyasha held her closer made her feel a bit better.

“You better not” he replied shortly

Outside the winds had picked up a bit since the day time and Kagome found herself more than happy to have Inuyasha's warm side to snuggle against.

“Good thing about living in a city is you can walk everywhere”

“Meaning you lived in the country before this..?”

“Sorta”

“What's that supposed to mean” she grinned

“Well, I lived at my family's estate”

“Estate?” she squeaked

“Yes, mouse”

She elbowed him again

“Yea, but anytime I wanted to go in town I'd have to drive a hell of a long ass time. I can't stand cars---stupid pieces of crap cause more trouble than they're worth”

“I agree. I love walking everywhere”

“Do you?” he questioned “Even in that skirt and heels?”

“Of course! The skirt give me more mobility, and I swear, I can do just about anything better in heels”

“We'll see about that”

Kagome flushed at the meaning, causing him to chuckle and wrap his other arm around her in a quick hug.

“You're too innocent for your own good…I can see why everyone's so protective of you”

She pouted “I'm not…naïve or anything…”

Oh, who was she kidding? Obviously not Inuyasha who chuckled again.

Kikyo said not to let your innocence show too much either. Guys would take advantage of that fact and make you do things…

But—the way Inuyasha was acting, didn't seem to agree to her sister's words.

The two took to the line that was strung in front of the ticket booth. Kagome noticed a few people pass by and waved to them as they gave her thumbs up or mouth “nice catch.”

After one of her friends shouted “He's a keeper!” from across the street, she felt more flustered than ever. Maybe her friends were the reason she didn't go out much…

Inuyasha just laughed, waving back to the girl as Kagome buried her red face into his shoulder. She mumbled apologies but he didn't seem offed at all.

“My, my Ms Higurashi. We are the popular one”

“Lucky me” she muttered, glaring at one of her guys friends who was making an interesting gesture with his hips

As Inuyasha paid for the tickets, she took to keeping her eyes away from a group of people she knew, who were calling out encouragement to her. Yes. This was definitely why she didn't go out much….

“Hey, Kagome! Who's the guy?”

A boy from one of her classes came up, giving her a gentle hug as he looked her over

Kagome smiled “Ummm…my date?”

“Are you shitting me?!”

“Uhhh….no?”

“Fuck. You haven't been out on a real date since Hojo—“

“Well, I'm glad and slightly creped out you keep so up with my dating habits”

Inuyasha had finished paying for the tickets and was raising an eyebrow between the two “Who's he?”

“Uhh…someone's who's leaving…come on” she grabbed his hand, pulling him inside before the guy could say anything else.

“You hungry?”

“Unless they have cereal, no” he snorted, though smirked soon after.

“How about you?” she was still holding his hand, unintentionally swinging it back and forth as they walked up towards the concessions “Eat anything besides cereal?”

“Ramen”

“I doubt they have that”

“Then we'll share a popcorn, deal?”

“Deal”

“Concession boy!” The two approached the counter and Kagome bopped him on the head for the comment

The said boy turned with a look, but once seeing Kagome, smiled “Hey Kags” his eyes went back to Inuyasha “Holy fuckin' shit! Our little Kagome on a real date?!”

“Oh stop, you're here to do your job, not embarrass me” she leaned on the counter, but still stayed against Inuyasha's side “Enough people have done that already”

“Alright, alright…Whatcha want?”

“Food” she mused

“Good choice”

“Popcorn” Inuyasha stated hardly.

As the boy went off to retrieve it, Kagome shot him a look “Ouch. That was a bit sharp”

“Its hard not to find all the crap annoying after a bit…”

She bit her lip “I'm sorry”

“Keh. Not like that stupid. Everyone here knows you….you really have room for me in there?”

She smiled with a red tint “Of course I do!”

Before the boy could say anything else to embarrass any of them, Inuyasha threw money on the table, grabbed the popcorn with one hand, and Kagome's hand with the other.

She giggled, pulling him to slow down after they were in the clear and down the long corridor. “Inuyasha! You have to share nice!”

“Keh!” he wrapped his arm around her, pulling her to his side again “What if I don't want to share?”

She just laughed against her flush as they entered their theatre. As she assumed—just like Kikyo had once told her guys always did—he went straight for the back row with the double “make-out” seats.

Though, instead of sitting normally, he collapsed on his back on top of the seat leaving her to stand and look down on him. She put her hands on her hips with a smile.

“And where am I supposed to sit?”

“Next seat over?”

“Gee thanks”

He chuckled, reaching out and pulling her so that her back reclined against his chest. And though she felt a jolt in the pit of her stomach, she didn't pull back or feel flustered. It felt so right and comfortable, so she chose to snuggle further into him.

He rested the popcorn on her belly as the previews started allowing them both access to the snack. His free hand slid to rest against the bare skin at her hip, softly rubbing up and down.

It was innocent and she found herself melting against his chest to a state of comfort where she felt she could nearly fall asleep.

Kagome smiled, reaching for some popcorn. She just couldn't believe how happy she was.

The lights went from dim to bright as a round of half hearted applause met the movies end. Everyone stood up at once, in some unseen rush to escape the theatre.

All accept the lounging couple in the back.

“You're not asleep are you?”

Kagome smiled, opening her eyes to rest on two sets of hands resting in her lap “No…”

“Or yes…”

“Maybe a little” she yawned, turning to look up at him “I'm so comfy though…”

The arms wrapped around her held her tighter.

“You think they'd mind if we stood her longer?”

He shrugged “If they want to watch, that's fine with me”

“And just what are you implying?” She sat up, turning around to face him as she knelt between his upright legs “I just want to rest…what are you think about, exactly?”

He chuckled, reaching out to rest his hands on her hips “What do you think I'm thinking about?”

“Things that could get us kicked out of the theatre like high schoolers?”

“Exactly”

He pulled her forward from his hold on her hips, until their foreheads rested against each other. Immediately she blushed, looking down from his heated stare.

Kikyo said that you should never look away when in such a situation. It showed submission and you'd, from that point, surrender all control to the man.

Was it so wrong that she didn't mind that…?

“Hey”

Her eyes instantly looked back up from the deep tone in his voice. Seeing his intense gaze, she flushed even more. Her stomach dropped and she felt chills all over. Never before had a guy made her feel such a way.

One of the hands on her hips left as he used his fingers to tilt her chin up. Her eyes closed, feeling his mouth move closer, closer—

“Ah hem”

Both turned enough to see the clean up crew watching them in the rather comprising position. Kagome immediately reddened, and tried to pull back, but was stopped from Inuyasha hold on her hip.

He pulled her close again as he whispered “You owe me a kiss, Ms. Higurashi”

And before she could even be affected by his look and words, she found herself lifted up against his chest. She squeaked in alarm as he took the steps down to the main floor.

“Inuyasha!” she tried acting stern from his unexpected action, but was finding it hard not to giggle from the act and the effect it was having on the clean up staff.

They all whistled and encouraged the couple as they made their way out of the room. She assumed he would have placed her down once in the hallways, but he kept carrying her right out of the exit and outside.

“Ok ok! I have feet!” she laughed as he snorted, placing her back down.

It had gotten even cooler out now and she instantly shivered from the wind, holding herself “It's gotten colder…”

“Well, it is fall stupid” she pouted but it instantly melted as he threw his jacket around her shoulders “Better?”

“A little…”

“A little?”

“You know what would make me warmer?”

“Uh…coffee!”

She giggled, stepping forward to bury her face in his chest. She couldn't believe how wonderful it felt to have his arms wrap around her and pull them closer together. It was all too good…

As if on cue, her cell phone rang to interrupt the perfect moment.

She grumbled, pulling back a bit only to feel his arms still around her as she reached for her phone.

Once seeing the number on the screen, she made a face

“Who is it?”

“Unavailable…?”

With a strange look, she pushed the green button and pulled it to her ear, her body reclining against Inuyasha's chest once again “Hello?”

“You wit' Kikyo?”

“I'm sorry?”

“Kikyo's sister! Are you the bitch's sister?!”

“Yes…?”

“Kagome, it's Alex. She's fuckin done it again—the bitch has done it again!” In the slight pause, Kagome could hear blaring music and sirens “She's straight up drunk off her ass and got into another fight! The slut is crazy and she's already been kicked out of the club. If you don't get your ass out here and pick up this little fucker, I'm having the cops tow her ass out of here, we clear?!”

Through the conversation Kagome had lifted herself away from Inuyasha, and know tried pulling out of his hold “Okay Alex. I'll be there, watch out for her—“

“I'm not waiting all fuckin---“

“I know! Ten minutes! That's all I need, just don't leave her side, okay?”

There was a heavy sigh from the other end “Fine, I'll wait…only ten!”

“Okay. I'm sorry…”

“Me too” she mumbled before there was dead air.

She jolted out of Inuyasha's hold, making him flinch back with a growl

“What's wrong?”

“I'm sorry” Her eyes threatened to tear up, but she pushed them back, trying to move towards the street “I—I have to go—I'm—“

“Hey, hey, hey” he pulled on her wrist, bring her back to face him “What's going on? Where are you--?”

“Please, I just have to go. Kikyo she—I need to get to the Cooler before…I have to go”

He sighed “For the record, I didn't understand any of that…coherent sentences usually help” before she could respond, he took her hand, pulling her towards their apartment “We'll pick up my car then head over alright?”

“We?” she questioned softly

“As in me and you” he confirmed with a smirk

She smiled, squeezing his hand as their pace picked up into a fast walk.

A queasy-ness started to over take her but she pushed it back and swallowed hard. She never liked these situations…

“Alex!

A platinum blond turned, a scowl on her face and a bruise on her cheek. Her arms were crossed and there wasn't a sign of welcome to her.

As she approached she gave Kagome a hard look “Tell your sister that if she's seen at Coolers again, the cops will have her ass, understood? She can't keep pulling this shit!”

“I'll tell her, thanks”

Alex walked past her towards the club as Kagome sighed; approaching her sister sprawled out on the bench. She knelt next to her “Kikyo?”

“Kagome…? What the fuck are you doing here?!” There was a low string of curses and random comments but Kagome ignored them.

She shifted her sister, making Kikyo's arm drape across her shoulder. Just like all the other times, her sister complied to the help as the two made the short journey back to Inuyasha's car.

With a bit of struggle, Kagome managed to get her sister in a seat belt and leaned her against the car door so in an effort to keep the intoxicated woman upright.

With a long sigh and a sweated brow, Kagome took her place next to Inuyasha on the bench seat up front.

“Kagome!” her sister shouted too loudly “Who the fuck is the driver!? He's cute…!”

“My date Kikyo”

“Aw shit! You know, you two---twooo should be off somewhere….why the hell are you here in a car?! I thought you were at the mooovies?!”

“We were”

“Ooooooo” Kikyo moved up, draping an arm around her sister “Ya know Kags….if you ree-lay want a guy you have to stop being so…sooooo you! Ya know…? Ya know?!”

“I know” she replied shortly

“Fuck! When I was your age…was I your age…? Crap! How old am I?” There was a slight pause filled with a short round of giggles “Kagome!!! Who's the driver?! He's cute…!!!”

At the same time Kikyo thumped face first into the back seat, Kagome let out a cry, burying her face in her hands. Her tears couldn't stay in any longer and she sobbed softly, her shoulders shaking as her sister continued to mumble to herself in the back.

“I'm sorry” she whispered to Inuyasha

“Kagome!!!! I think….I think I might be sick?!”

The sound of a stomach being emptied echoed in the small confines of the car

Kagome shook her head, her eyes closed as her head remained buried “I'm so sorry…this shouldn't…I ruined our date…and your car…I'm sorry…I'll make up for it…I'll clean it up in the morning! Tonight…I'—“

A strong arm wrapped around her shoulder, securing her against a warm muscular body as she was pulled across the bench seat.

“It's not your fault..” he whispered deeply, before pressing his lips to her crown.

She sniffled but didn't say anything. It was her fault. She was Kikyo's sister and had obligations to care for her…

“Kikyo!” His voice was rough and sharp making her jump slightly “Sit the fuck up unless you want to swallow your own damned puke!”

She mumbled something, but complied, leaning back against the window.
