rox4787: I'm glad you do. =) Getting your reviews makes me happy. I know that someone enjoys it so I will continue to update quickly. Ah~ So, I thought about this next chapter. I wondered how I should make them respond to each other and . . . I couldn't decide on anything! =D This chapter had no brain storming and, like most of everything else I write, plays out as it goes on. For better or worse. =3 .^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^. Chapter 2~ Self-Deprecating Birthday Gifts & Enough Surprises .^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^. "Ugly duckling's here." Jankostu announced when he came back into 'Taijiya's Tavern.' Sango looked up from the glass she was wiping, expecting to see younger woman trailing behind her co-worker. Instead the door just slammed shut with a loud bang, followed by light tinkling by the bells on the handle. Her eyes narrowed. "If she is here, why hasn't she come in? What did you say to her, Jankotsu?" The overly-rouged bottom lip of the cross-dresser poked out in a fake pout. "Nothing." He said, walking over to Inuyasha, who was slumped over the bar, face buried in his arms. Sango hadn't messed with him since he settled down; she figured he was asleep. Jankotsu placed his hands on Inuyasha's drooped shoulders and looked back at the seething bartender, the pout gone, replaced with a sly grin. "Just what Yashie told me." "Oh, would you fuckin' get off of me, you fag? God, make me wanna fuckin' throw up." Inuyasha jerked out of Jankotsu's grasp and almost fell to the ground. He had to back-step a few times and grab another bar stool to steady himself, but even standing still the surrounding room wouldn't stop spinning. The cross-dresser snickered. "Maybe I should have given you a few more on the house." He tapped his lips and then shook his head. "Oh, well." Turning, he walked through the double doors that led to the kitchen and left both the bartender and hanyou angry. "If it wasn't illegal, I would've killed him already." Sango muttered angrily, throwing her rag and the shot glass she was wiping into the plastic bin filled with soap water before storming over to the front door. She yanked it open and saw Kagome standing on the other side, her hand out-stretched, as if she was just about to grab the handle. "Erm, hi?" "Did you forget how to open a door, Kaggie?" Sango asked jokingly, stepping back to let her best friend in. Kagome raised her chin indignantly, "No. I had to make a phone call." She stated, her overly confident attitude causing the brunette to raise one eye brow then shake her head, letting go of the door's handle. When it slammed shut, the miko yelped, whirling around to glare at the source of the noise. Sango busted out laughing. "Dude, you got three feet of air!" "S-Shut up!" "Kagome?" Both girls went silent and looked at Inuyasha who was still leaning up against the bar. From the time she had come in, Inuyasha had been staring at her, unsure if what he was seeing was real or if he was passed out on the bar dreaming. Trying to smash down the feeling of butterflies in her stomach, Kagome shook her head and smiled gently. "No. You're mistaken. I'm just here to take you to a hotel." She lied, earning an exasperated sigh from Sango who had gone back to cleaning glasses. Inuyasha's eye brows scrunched together in confusion. Something wasn't right. Even in his drunken state, he could see that. Kagome stiffened when Inuyasha stumbled over to her, using the bar for support, and got right in her face, his nose almost touching hers. "You smell just like her, and . . . " He squinted, trying to pick the clearer girl out of his double vision. He chose the one to the right and studied her for a moment, all the while bright sapphire eyes stared back up at him, widened in nervousness. "You look like her. You're fuckin' Kagome." He concluded, having to grab her shoulders to keep his body from falling forward. "N-Nope." Kagome laughed shakily, grabbing his forearms to help steady him. "Now let's go. I'm sure you're tired." Sango was nearly dying in silent laughter behind the counter and the miko shot her a dirty look and then nodded towards the chair Inuyasha was occupying before, causing her friend to bite her lip to further muffle her giggling and walk around the counter to grab the overstuffed gym bag. "Dammit, bitch! I know it's you!" Inuyasha growled, allowing Kagome to wrap his arm around her shoulders and her arm around his waist. The young woman sighed, tugging him forward like he was a bratty child. "Come on." Inuyasha, still trying to convince himself it was Kagome despite her denial of the identity, walked along obediently. Both silent. Kagome having nothing to say and Inuyasha too busy with staring at the small girl who was currently helping him walk. In fact, he was so blindly transfixed on her, that when Kagome opened to door to lead him outside, he tripped on the door step and almost brought both of them face-first into the gravel. Luckily, the miko ended up getting him into the car without any injury to either party. "Kagome! Pop the trunk." The miko slammed the passenger door and pulled her keys out of her pocket, pressing the button until she heard the unmistakable creak of her trunk sliding open. She went around and picked up her cake and the bottle and moved them before Sango could crush them with the bag. Her best friend looked at them curiously then dropped Inuyasha's luggage and smashed it into the very back of the trunk. "Is that all you treated yourself to for your birthday?" She finally asked, straightening herself. "Grocery store wine and a huge cheesecake?" "Maybe." Kagome muttered, knowing where this was going. She sighed and put the items back into the trunk and shut it, waiting for Sango to start the 'you deserve better' speech. "Ya know, Kags," 'And there it goes.' The miko rolled her eyes. "No, no." Sango said sternly, shaking a finger in her best friend's face. "It wouldn't kill you to go treat yourself to a massage or a mani-pedi every now and then, especially on your birthday." Kagome opened her mouth to clarify, but the older woman cut her off. "You have the money, you just don't wanna spend it, you cheap skate." Kagome grinned like he Cheshire cat and Sango made a sound that was a mix between a sigh and small chuckle. "I'm taking you out tomorrow. The drunkard will be sleeping anyway because I guarantee he is going to have the mother of all hang overs." "At my place?" "Until we can make other arrangements or get ahold of Miroku, I'm guessing so." Kagome narrowed her eyes. "This seems a bit set-up." She said suspiciously, crossing her arms and looking at Sango from out of the corner of her eye. The bartender held up her hands. "I am not a criminal mastermind." Kagome giggled and both girls walked around to the driver's side of the vehicle. They talked for a few more minutes about random things, tomorrow's agenda mostly, then said their "See you later's." Sango disappeared inside and the miko got in the car, stuck the key in the ignition, and put her her seat belt on. Before she backed out, she figured it was safe to take a quick glance at Inuyasha, who she figured would be asleep by now. Making sure her best friend was no where in sight, Kagome looked over the passenger's seat and came nose to nose with said drunken hanyou. Startled, the miko screamed and slid to the other side of her chair. "What in the world, Inuyasha?" "There is no way you aren't her!" 'Still stuck on that . . . ' She mentally groaned and decided it would be best to just ignore him until they got back to her apartment. The whole ride was Kagome nervously fidgeting with the radio dial while Inuyasha blatantly stared at her from the other side of the car's small cab. She could almost literally feel his eyes on her, and it was making her nervous. Twice she nearly ran a stop sign, she was constantly fluctuating in speed, and she almost missed her turn. Even though she had known him nearly her whole high school career, the miko never once would've thought Inuyasha to be a driving hazard when he wasn't the one actually driving. "We're here." Kagome finally said, relieved when she pulled into her parking space and took the key out of the vehicle she had been trapped in for the past half hour. She unbuckled her seat belt and very nearly flew out of the car. She took her time carrying Inuyasha's bag and her groceries up the stairs to her second story apartment before going to back to get the hanyou himself. When the miko got back down the hanyou had already gotten out and was leaning against the hood, waiting for her. "Come here, wench." He said, uncrossing his arms and standing up straight. Kagome took a few steps forward. If she thought she had the butterflies bad before, then she was mistaken. In her stomach was a flurry of butterflies that had just discovered speed and were taking mass amounts of it. "Come here." He repeated. Unable to bring herself to say no, Kagome walked over with the look of a guilty child about to be scolded and looked up at him with a failed aggravated expression. "What?" She said, trying to figure out if he was still drunk or not. He didn't seem like it, but her birthday was just filled with surprises. Inuyasha looked down at her for a moment, his eyes flitting over her whole body as if examining her, then without warning, his hands grabbed her waist. A second later, Kagome found her back plastered to the windshield of her green bug, the hanyou leaning over her with his body resting between her legs. "Inuyasha! Just what do you think you are doing?" She cried, her cheeks flaming. He might've been able to get away with something like this a long time ago, but seven years of not even seeing each other was one damn good reason for why this was inappropriate. Pushing against his chest, Kagome tried to get him off of her, not wanting him to know that this whole situation was making her hot. "Cool it, wench." He said, ignoring her weak attempts to free herself and her constant protests, he yanked her dark blue, silk blouse out of her grey skirt and pushed it up to the bottom of her breasts, his eyes scanning over her flat belly until he found what he was looking for. There, on her left side, was the moon-shaped scar she had received a long time ago when she had tripped in the well house while trying to hide from him. They had never been able to figure out what she fell on to cause such a wound, but Inuyasha had never heard the end of it. Kagome gasped, her blush darkening, wondering just where exactly he got off thinking he could make such a bold move, but then she realized what he was doing and, much to the poor hanyou's surprise, she started laughing. "Did you really have to do all that, baka?" Inuyasha stared bewildered at the miko for a moment and then slid off of her, feeling as if he'd already crossed a more than a few invisible boundaries already. It was Kagome. He could never forget that tantalizing scent, but he would admit she threw his drunken mind for a loop when she said she wasn't herself. He was stuck believing it was too good to be true. He watched her carefully lower herself off the car, his mind still hazy, but not as bad as it was. Being hanyou had it's perks. If a human had drank as much as he had tonight, they would be dead or dying from alcohol poisoning. "Inuyasha, come on. You need to take some Tylenol and go to bed, you are going to be ill tomorrow." Kagome said, walking ahead of him up a very thin walk way towards a two-story building with four balconies. Two were on ground level, the other two at the top, separated by a long railing. Suddenly, the hanyou wondered what the point of having a balcony on the ground was. He wrote it off as something to think about when he was sober. Any kind of logical reasoning was out of the question in his current state. He followed Kagome up two flights of small stairs to apartment '213' on the right. Inuyasha watched her push open the door and turn to stand in the doorway. "It's not much." She smiled shyly. "But it's enough. There's only one bedroom so, I'll-" "Dog turd? What the fuck you doing here?" .^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^.~.^*^. A/N: If you are a true Inuyasha fan, then you know who uses that name for our favorite hanyou. =) The chapters aren't as long as I want them to be, so I am going to start to work on that, and I am trying to get my writing even better so you poor people don’t have to cringe while you read it. So . . . That's all. I'll try my best to update tomorrow! =D Until then!
