InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Cinderella Miko ❯ To the Ball ( Chapter 3 )

Chapter 3~ To the Ball!

 

Disclaimer: It's me again! I don't own Inu-Yasha. Now on to the story!!

 

 

 

 

On the way to the ball Kagome was getting nervous. “I hope I look presentable. I just hope Kikyo doesn't recognize me. I'd hate to see what she would happen if she did, probably shout something like servant girl.” She thought sadly.

 

 

 

She had been so absorbed in her thoughts she hadn't noticed they were at the castle. She sighed and steeled herself. She was now on her way to the ballroom. She would have been there by now if she didn't keep getting lost.

 

 

She sighed. “Maybe I should ask for directions.” She thought looking around. She heard music and smiled in relief. She entered the ballroom quietly. The music had stop and a guy with long silver-white hair was talking.

 

 

The teenage boy next to him was searching around the room it seemed. The boy had the same silver hair as the guy talking. “That's Prince Sesshoumaru. Then the other must be the Crown Prince. Wow . . . . .He's really cute! And are those dog ears? They're so adorable!!” She thought smiling to herself.

 

 

 

Then his eyes locked on hers. It seemed that time had stopped. She couldn't help but blush. She then realized that the Prince had stopped talking, everyone was moving and the Crown Prince was coming her way, no correction was already standing in front of her.

 

 

 

He was smiling. “My name is Inu yasha. What's yours?” He asked, quietly. “Kagome” She said, blushing. “Beautiful” said Inu yasha grinning.

Kagome blushed darker. His grin widened. “Well Kagome, would you like to come with me?” asked Inu yasha. Holding out his arm, she took it nodding and flashed him a bright smile.

 

 

 

“I can't believe how red my face is turning! Not only that I can't believe I'm walking with Prince Inu yasha.” She thought. He took her outside and into the royal gardens. They walked around enjoying eachother's company for awhile. He then guided her to a bench in front of a pond. Kagome looked around. They were flowers blooming and fireflies playing. The full moon shown high in the sky giving everything an earthreal glow.

 

 

 

“It's so beautiful. . . . Like something unreal.” She thought smiling softly. She then turned toward to Inu yasha to find him staring at her. She blushed. “Is something the matter?” She asked, nervously. Inu yasha shook his head and grinned.

 

 

“Just wondering why I haven't seen you before.” He said, pausing. “Because I know I've would have remembered.” He finished. Kagome blinked and blushed redder.

 

 

“I don't suppose you would have your highness. I don't go into town very often. But my sisters Sango and Kikyo usually do though.” said Kagome softly. Inu yasha frowned. “Yes, I have seen them there. My best friend Miroku likes your sister Sango very much. And it's Inu yasha not Your Highness.” said Inu yasha.

 

 

Kagome blushed. “Wait until I tell Sango that Miroku likes her! Wait . . . he's asking me to call him by his name!” She thought giggling mentally.

There was a pause before Inu yasha spoke again. “What do you think about the garden?” He asked, curiously. She was shocked for a second but thought about it.

 

 

 

“It's beautiful and so peaceful.” Kagome said softly. They fell into another comfortable silence. Inu yasha then started to fidget. “You know, at the end of the evening. I'm suppose to pick my mate and Princess. Right?” asked Inu yasha softly.

 

 

Kagome nodded and waited for him to continue. “Well . . . .” He trailed off, looking unsure. “Is he about to ask me what I think he is?” thought Kagome. She then heard the clock strike midnight. “Oh no! The wish is about to start to wear off.” She thought starting to panic. She stood up quickly.

 

 

 

Inu yasha looked up at her. “I'm sorry but I have to go.” She said hurriedly. Inu yasha looked at her in confusion. “Why?” He asked. Kagome smiled sadly and said. “I can't let my sister catch me here.” She started to run away.

 

 

Inu yasha stood and started run after her. Kagome tripped at the entrance loosing one of her shoes. But continued to her carriage, she quickly got in.

“Hurry! Go! Go!” She said, panicky to the driver. Inu yasha stopped at the entrance panting. He watched as the carriage sped away.

 

 

“Damn those girls! They delayed me! I couldn't catch her. . . .” He thought sadly. His ears drooped but perked back up when he saw the light blue glass shoe. “She must have dropped it when she was running.” He thought now grinning.

 

 

“Well I can wait to make my announcement.” thought Inu yasha his grin widening as he went to go tell his brother. As he approached his brother he didn't see a pair a cold hazel brown eyes glaring angrily.

 

 

Back at the cottage Kagome stepped into her room. She was glad the wish lasted until she got home. Shippo was curled up and sound asleep. She giggled softly. She changed and slipped into her bed thinking about the events that had happened earlier.

 

 

“I wonder . . . . Was he really going to choose me? I can't wait to tell Sango and Shippo in the morning.” She thought excitedly as she drifted off to sleep.

 

 

To be continued. . . .
