A/N: Hey guys, i'm back. Sorry for the long wait on this story, but writer's block sucks. Truth be told, the only reason I'm looking at this story right now is because of my friend's obssession with it, but oh well. I made a deal and I don't go back on my word. So, i hope you all enjoy the update.

-Shippo-

I watched Kagome as she rummaged around in her closet, occasionally throwing things over her shoulder mumbling things to herself. She'd been doing that since we got back from her high school at two, it was almost three now.

"Kaa-San, what are you looking for?"

I asked curiously as she threw a white blouse over her shoulder and it landed ontop of Kilala's head.

"Something to wear!"

She said as she dug further into her closet.

"Just wear your usual afternoon clothes."

I suggested, but from the series of appalled noises coming from within the closet I guess that was the wrong thing to say.

"I can't do that Shippo."

Kagome said as she finally emerged from the closet and stood infront of me, hand on her hip.

"I'm going out with Hikaru to dinner and a movie, I have to look nice."

She said and I looked at her confused, she always looked nice in whatever she chose to wear.

"Kaa-San, you like Hikaru don't you?"

I asked and saw her blush and stare at me with slightly wide eyes before shaking her head.

"No! I'm just going to the movies with him and out to dinner."

She said and I smiled. It was so obvious she liked him.

"Sounds like a date to me."

I said and smiled wider when I saw her blush darken.

"G-Go see if Shouta's done with his homework yet."

She said, trying to change the subject and I just laughed as I padded over towards the door. I stopped next to a summer dress Kagome had thrown over her shoulder earlier.

"You should wear this Kaa-San."

I said, pointing to the dress before slipping out of the room and going to do as Kagome had said. In the month since Kagome brought Kilala and me back with her through the well I'd noticed she'd gotten close to the members of the Host Club and I was happy to see they all cared for her. But I was worried about her starting to like Hikaru, after what had happened last time she gave her heart to someone, I wasn't sure if she'd be able to handle being hurt again. I knew Hikaru wouldnt hurt my mother like Inuyasha had, but he could still hurt her already unstable heart.

I sighed as I sat down on Shouta's bed and watched him finish him homework and start to play a videogame. No matter what I just wanted Kagome to find happiness, if anyone deserved it it was her.

-Kagome-

I watched as Shippo walked out of my room and walked over to the dress he'd suggested and picked it up.

"What do you think Kilala, should I try it on?"

I asked the twin tailed cat as she crawled out from under one of my shirts. She cocked her head to the side before closing her eyes and meowing.

"I guess that's a yes."

I said before grabbing a pair of leggings that would go with the dress before slipping into my closet and closing the doors after me, turning it into a temporary dressing room.

I looked at myself in the mirror and couldnt help but smile. The navy blue silk dress fell to a little last my knees and hugged my waist without being too tight. The straps that crossed in the back exposed my back, but it only made the dress that much more comfortable to wear. I didn't need the leggings so I chose to leave them where where they were and walked back out into my room, a pair of blue sandals in my hand.

"What do you think Kilala? Does it look okay?"

I asked and the small fire cat stared at me before sitting up and mewling in approval, her two tails rising and falling behind her.

"I like it too."

I said before petting her between the ears then slipping out the door and going to find Shippo to thank the little fox kit. He may just be a kid, but I swear sometimes he was a genius in disguise.

-Kaoru-

I smiled as I watched my brother pace our room muttering to himself. He'd told me how Kagome had asked him to go to the movies with her and to get something to eat and now he was pacing at the foot of our bed in his boxers because he couldn't find something nice to wear. Ironic really considering who our mother was and what she did for a living.

"How 'bout this one?"

I asked as I held up a pair of orange shorts and a blue tanktop.

"No. I can't take Kagome to dinner wearing that."

He said and I sighed as I threw it over my shoulder and picked up another outfit.

"Okay, how about this one?"

I asked, gesturing to the black button up dress shirt and slacks.

"No, I don't want to be too dressy."

He said and I frowned at my twin for a second before tossing the clothes over my shoulder and thinking for a moment.

"I got it!"

I said as I walked past him and walked into our closet.

"What are you looking for Kaoru?"

Hikaru asked as I rummaged around in our closet.

"This."

I said with a smile as I held out the outfit I'd found. It was simply, yet not too casual. Dressy, but not overly so. If Hikaru still said no then I was going to send him in a pair of Nike shorts and a basketball tee.

-Hikaru-

I looked at the clock on my phone for what felt like the millionth time, but still the time hadn't changed but three minutes. Kagome had said four and texted me saying to meet her outside the movie theater by four-fifteen. I'd gotten here early and it was only now turning four-fourteen.

'Calm down Hikaru, it's just a friendly day out, nothing more.'

I thought to myself, but that didn't stop my heart from pounding in my chest in anticipation.

Kaoru had put me in a pair of light gray, slightly faded jeans, a white tee with rainbow colored words spelling out 'Music = Life' on the front and a light blue hoodie jacket over it. I was happy with the outfit, but now I was nervous as four-fifteen finally rolled around and Kagome was nowhere to be seen.

I had just started thinking she'd stood me up when I felt someone tap me on my shoulder and heard a soft, sweet voice say my name.

"Hikaru, sorry if I made you wait long."

She said as I turned to face her.

"I wasnt waiting..."

I said but trailed off slightly when I saw what she was wearing.

"...long."

I finished lamely as stared at her. She looked beautiful in the navy blue dress she was wearing. She wasn't wearing any makeup, but she didn't need it. Her hair was pulled up in a high ponytail with a few strands of hair framing her face. She looked gorgeous.

"I'm glad."

She said, bringing me out of my daze.

"What do you want to see?"

I asked with a smile and saw her look towards the movie line-up.

"Lockout?"

She said, though it sounded more like a question to me. Like she was asking permission.

'She actually wants to see an adventure movie, not something girly. Kagome, you are definitely a girl after my own heart.'

I thought as I smiled and paid for out tickets. This was going to be an interesting day.
