"WHAT!" The shout resonated through out the whole dressing room. Inuyasha began pacing back and forth. The two other guys in the room stole a quick glance at each other. Inuyasha stopped and faced his manager.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO MARRY THE GIRL, SESSHOUMARU?" Inuyasha bellowed.
Sesshoumaru didn't seem phased my Inuyasha's outburst only annoyed and Miroku just cringed. They had expected Inuyasha to act this way. He was always screaming and yelling over something. They were just finally glad that he finally had a real reason to.
"You have to agree on this Inuyasha, the show is in real bad shape and if you want to keep your job then you must do what they say." Miroku tried to plead.
"I don't need this damn job. I can go and get a fucking new one. I am Inuyasha for gosh sakes!" he interrupted.
"No you can't" Sesshoumaru answered. Both of the boys turned to Sess .
"What the hell do you mean?" Inuyasha demanded.
"It's simply, If you refused the offer then the show will fire you and soil your reputation so that no other show will hire you."
Inuyasha's mouth dropped.
"Could they really do that?" Miroku asked.
Yes, they could," Sesshoumaru answered nonchalant. "So Inuyasha has no choice but to accept."
Inuyasha collapsed in the nearest chair. With his body slumped and head drooped he looked like a still doll. Miroku walked up and touched Inuyasha on the shoulder. When he felt Inuyasha shaking under him he thought that he was crying. He crouched on his knee to look his friend in the eye, and what he saw frightened him. Miroku rose up and began slowly backing away. Sesshoumaru was surprised by Miroku's action. But by the look on Miroku's face he too began backing away from Inuyasha.

Afte r Kagome was done, Sango grabbed Kagome's shoulders and held her tight. Kagome tears started to flow again and it seemed that she couldn't stop them. Sango tried to bring comfort by rocking her, but it was futile.
"Kagome, I am so sorry for you. If I could I would go find all those bastards who did this to you and kick every single one's ass."
Kagome replied with a slight chuckle, and straighten herself up.
"You know don't worry about it Sango its just business. I mean I have heard of actresses that had to date their costars for ratings but I never thought they would have to marry them. It just seems so extreme. I mean I'm only 20." Kagome said while wiping the tears from her eyes.
"I know girl but I'm pretty sure that they don't want the marriage to last forever. Just until they the broadcasting company can get all their money back and then they will just cancel the show. I may only be a hairdresser but I do know a little about the business."Sango stated.
Sango and Kagome had been friends ever since the show started. Sango, who was five years older then Kagome, was like her big sister and helped her through all the dramas of the industry.
"I know but marrying Inuyasha would be sooo...." And before Kagome could finish her sentence the girls heard a very loud shout followed by some yelling and loud banging. 'What they heck is that?' Kagome wondered. Sango grabbed her friends hand and they both quickly shot through the dressing room door to find the reason for the noise.
----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
The two men weren't able to reach the door in time before Inuyasha erupted. He leaped from his chair and began shouting all kinds of obscenities that would shock a sailor.
"What in the hell give them the right to treat me like I’m trash. I dare them to try to boss me around like I'm a five year old kid. No one bosses me around. And then they are gonna stop me from getting a job somewhere just because I don't follow their fucking rules like a damn errand boy. I will not be treated like dirt by some stuck up, cocksucking, mother fucking, pompous ass bastards that if I ever grabbed them with my bare hands I would tear them apart while they scream for mercy!"
While Inuyasha was saying this he was throwing everything around in the room. It was like a hurricane how fast everything was flying. Miroku and Sesshoumaru gripped tightly against the wall praying to the gods that Inuyasha wouldn't direct his anger upon them. It would be just their luck that the gods were on break because Inuyasha turned towards the men with such venom in their eyes that it seemed that their insides had just caught on fire. "And I should kill you two fucking idiots for agreeing to this in the first place. GET THE HELL OUT!" Inuyasha said with such hatred that the guys didn't even argue. They rushed towards the door just in time before the table was thrown out after them. Inuyasha quickly slammed the door. He turned toward the mirror and began punch his fist into it. 'What in the world gives them the right to treat me like they own me. I am no one's pet. My mother warned me about the hardship of show business but I just ignored her. It was my dream to be an actor.' And that thought made Inuyasha stop. 'It is my dream. So why destroy everything I've done over some marriage. I mean I hate it that they feel they can tell me what to do, but what can I do about it. They have been doing this to actors forever and me protesting isn't gonna change anything. And besides it won't be that bad marrying Kagome I guess. I mean she is fine as hell. so....I guess I will just have to deal. He began backing away from the mirror and looked at his cracked reflection. Inuyasha didn't seem to notice the blood that was dripping from his sore knuckles. 'I wonder how Kagome feels about having to marry me? I bet she hates it. I mean who would want to marry me. Even if it is fake' He then walked away from the mirror and headed towards the door to find Kagome, because if he did decide to marry Kagome for a publicity stunt then she would have to agree. And he secretly hoped she would. But just as he reached for the handle the door opened.
--------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
When Kagome and Sango exited her dressing they were welcomed by the sight of all the crew gathering around facing Inuyasha's dressing room while. Kagome turned towards Sango.
“Lets go see what is wrong with Inuyasha."
Sango agreed so they began to head towards Inuyasha's dressing room. Then a thought hit her
“Sango, do you think he knows yet about the publicity stunt?” Kagome asked. Snago beagn to understand what Kagome was trying to say.
“Do you think that is what happened? Is this how he took the news?” Sango asked.The girls then heard someone shouting and the dressing room door swung open with Miroku, Sesshoumaru, and a table flying out. Kagome and Sango quick pushed through the crowd and ran to the two guys. They seemed very shaken.
Sango was the first one to speak. "What happen?"
Miroku looked up and seemed happy to be staring at his longtime girlfriend. "Well, dear we had just told Inuyasha about an offer that the company had given him..."Miroku began.
"Yeah yeah, I know about this stunt that the broadcasting company wants Inuyasha and Kagome to do and I absolutely hate it, but how did Inuyasha take the news?" Sango asked. Secretly Kagome was wondering the same thing, but she could infer from all the commotion coming from his dressing room and the fact that he had kicked his brother and his best friend that it couldn't be a good sign. Miroku looked at Sesshoumaru who seemed very pissed
“Well he took it as we though he would.....badly." Sesshoumaru answered and looked down.
"Well, I think I should probably go and talk to him because this is about us."At first the guys seemed reluctant to let Kagome walk up to Inuyasha in such a crazed state but they both agreed that no matter how angry Inuyasha was he would never hurt a girl especially Kagome. So she walked up to Inuyasha's door, grabbed the handle, and opened the door.
----------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
When Kagome opened the door she came face to face with Inuyasha. They both were surprised. Kagome soon became a little flushed when she saw the state that Inuyasha was in. His hair was all tossed and rustled. He was slightly sweaty and the white tank top that he wore clung to his form fitted body. He looked so sexy! But before Inuyasha could say anything to Kagome about her quick flushed appearance, Kagome yelped and grabbed his hands. He looked at them and saw that they were bloody and bruised. He quickly turned his head around and looked at the cracked mirror. He finally noticed the blood covering the dresser and small drips on the floor. He wasn’t that concerned because he was a hanyou and his demon side could help the wound quick. When he turned and tried to tell Kagome to calm down, he was surprised by the concerned look on her face.
"Inuyasha...what..how...I can't believe you did this to yourself?" Her face quickly became sad. He was about to ask her what was wrong when she grabbed his hand and started pulling him out of the dressing room.
"We need to clean it now. I am going to take you to the bathroom."
Inuyasha tried to explain to her that it would quickly heal but she ignored him by saying that she didn’t want it to get infected.
She caught him off guard. ‘Wow, why is she caring so much about me? I mean I know she is a kind person and I admire her for that, but how could she possible be so nice to me after I completely embarrassed her this afternoon.' They rushed past Miroku, Sango, Sesshoumaru, and the rest of the crowd straight towards the women's bathroom. Inuyasha tried to struggle because he didn’t want to be seen by everyone going into the girl’s bathroom,but Kagome had a firm grip on his hand. He soon stopped though when he realized how perfectly their hands fit together. Inuyasha’s mind began to race. It wasn’t until Kagome pulled his hand under cold water that he finally heard what she was saying.
“…Inuyasha I just don’t understand how the thought of marrying me could outrage you so much that you start beating your hand against a mirror.’ Kagome was whispering.
He finally understood why she was so sad earlier when she saw his hand. Kagome started to whimper.
”..I mean I don’t like the situation either but I don’t think that I would be that bad of a wife I mean it is fake and everything and I know I’m a little cranky sometimes but..” She was caught off when Inuyasha grabbed her into a swift tight hug. He hated when women cried especially if he caused it.
“Kagome, shut up.” Inuyasha whispered. It caught Kagome completely off surprised. He pulled her away until they were staring into each others eyes; their face only inches away from each other.
“Kagome I wasn’t anger at you okay. I was mad at the company for treating me like shit. Kagome, I could never be mad at you. I really don’t mind marry you at all.” Kagome was surprised by the sincerity of the sentence. She never noticed how beautiful Inuyasha’s eyes really were. They were like golden orbs that sucked you in trance. They both began to leaning in closer. Kagome suddenly realized what was about to happen. She quickly pushed Inuyasha away. It caught Inuyasha completely off guard and he fell back on his butt.
“Why the hell did you do that for Kagome? What the fuck is wrong with you wench!” Inuyasha yelled.
“Shut up Inuyasha you were getting too close to me.” Kagome shouted back.
“Why would I get close to an ugly girl like you!”
“Inuyasha you are such a big fat STUPID JERK. I HATE YOU!”
“Well, you’re A STUPID WENCH!”
“AHHHHH” They both screamed. “HOW COULD I EVER MARRY YOU!”
Sango, Miroku and Sesshoumaru were all hanging outside the bathroom when they heard their their friend’s screams. They all moaned. It was going to be their greatest challenge yet, to passing Inuyasha and Kagome off as a loving couple.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO MARRY THE GIRL, SESSHOUMARU?" Inuyasha bellowed.
Sesshoumaru didn't seem phased my Inuyasha's outburst only annoyed and Miroku just cringed. They had expected Inuyasha to act this way. He was always screaming and yelling over something. They were just finally glad that he finally had a real reason to.
