The Reason

Chapter 12 - The Dance

Last Time:

He mumbled something more audible, but not understandable. It sounded like "emanna ple fr kame"

"Inuyasha, if were gonna learn it we have to know why at least." Yasuo said.

"I wanna play it `cause" that was all they really understood. The rest sounded like, "zits fer kagme"

"Inuyasha! We still can't hear you!" Kin yelled.

"I said, `I wanna play it `cause it's for Kagome'." Inuyasha ground out unhappily, emphasizing each syllable.

They looked at him with a mix of surprised and pleased faces. Mina sighed and said, "Okay, Inuyasha. Now lets go look if we can find some tab for that song."

The day had arrived. It was Valentine's Day. And the Valentine's Day Dance. Thankfully, it was on a Saturday, so there was time to do everything. The troops arrived at around 10 in the morning. The principal of their school had agreed to open it that early for them, thanks to Eri and her master power of persuasion. They had brought everything. Flowers, tablecloths, confetti, balloons, streamers, banners, signs, paint, and equipment. The DJ ended up to be Yuka's cousin, who was doing this for free along with free use of his equipment, provided if they broke anything, they paid for it. The band, the rest of the Sengoku Jidai people and the Higurashi's were helping, along with the dance committee of four people, a few relatives, friends and volunteers were helping to set up everything. About thirty people in total, including a couple moms who were providing lunch and snacks.

In addition to selling roses, they were selling a couple other things too. Kagome had convinced her fellow committee members to have it partially a rave too, so it would be fun, too, not just mushy-gushy romancey stuff. They were selling glow sticks, the glow rings (the kind that you can wear as necklaces), the little clip on lights, balls that had flashing lights and were on a string that you could wear around your neck, and flashing pacifiers that you could wear as necklaces. (A/N: please understand, I myself do not rave. I can, but I suck ^_^' my friends do, and it looks cool, and they have most of this stuff) Everything was from a dollar to five dollars (A/N: don't know the prices of this stuff either, plus I don't know how much that would be in Yen or whatever).

They were setting everything up. They cleaned the They set up the banners, stands, tables, decorations and everything. Soon everything was coming together. It soon resembled the thing they imagined. Tables on one side, with a four-rose centerpiece, each one with a red, pink, white and yellow rose in it. There was confetti that was shaped in hearts, cherubs, and ones that said "Happy Valentines Day!"

The food table was on the other side of the gym. There was tons of food there. Cookies, cake, cupcakes, brownies, chips, rice cakes, pretzels, punch, lots of soda pop and a lot more junk food. Most of which were iced with pink and white, or heart shaped. Basically, everything there was the exact opposite of what your mother would want you to eat.

Soon, it was time for the dance to begin. Most of the people who were staying for the dance had brought clothes to change into. And the locker rooms were open, so they even got to take a shower. Although Miroku had to be bind and gagged while the girls showered and changed. They all changed into nice clothes. The girls, of course, took a lot longer than the guys did. Except for Mina, who really didn't care about what she was wearing, and she didn't wear make up except for lip-gloss and some eye stuff. The rest of the time she spent helping the other girls.

When the girls finally emerged from the locker rooms, a very long time later, the wait seemed to be worth it. Eri, Arimi and Yuka were wearing skirts and a nice blouse, all in different colors. They were wearing that makeup stuff, and quite a bit of it, Inuyasha could smell it. Mina was wearing jeans and a blue T-shirt with Polo on it in orange letters over a white long-sleeved shirt, while her hair was up in a big jaw clip, blue ends hanging down. She wasn't wearing any of the weird makeup stuff, except for some lip goo and eye goo, as Inuyasha put it.

But it was Kagome and Sango that were really radiant. Sango wore tight, faded jeans, with a lopsided black belt. She wore a black spaghetti strap shirt underneath what looked like a net, and hair simply down and just barely any make up, mostly like Mina. Kagome was wearing an outfit similar to Sango's. She wore a pair of tight, dark blue jeans, and a belt made out of silver hoops. Her top had a low v-neck and the straps came around so it tied at the back of her neck, while the back was low. She had the completed Shikon no Tama around her neck, so what was there could be purified and kept safe at all times. She wore as much make up as Sango and had her hair up in to messy buns at the side of her head.

And in no way did the guys look any less good than the girls did. Kin and Yasuo both had their hair up in gel, and both wore jeans and converse all-stars (A/N: what? Did you think they'd wear converse weapons?). But Yasuo wore a shirt that more or less had its sleeves ripped off. Kin wore a green T-shirt with 05 written on the back in yellow letters. Miroku was wearing regular jeans and a form fitting black T-shirt. Inuyasha was wearing a black cap backward on his head, puffs of his bangs sticking out. He wore black jeans and a white T-shirt. He still wore the rosary around his neck.

Miroku stood there, slightly agape, at the sight of the young ladies wearing such, such, wonderful clothing. Especially his Sango. Although it wasn't as revealing as he would've liked it to be, it was probably the most revealing thing she had ever worn. Excepting the times he had peeked on her in the hot springs.

Inuyasha thought Kagome looked equally, if not more, beautiful than Sango or any of the other girls. Especially with that nice top. A bunch of emotions and thoughts were streaming through his head. A few of them were `That Homo guy better not be here' and `'
