Chapter Three- Kagome's StoryPart 2

 

Feudal Era

 

“Damn it Miroku!” our favorite demon slayer could be heard screaming as she very ungracefully followed our favorite hentai monk from behind the bushes landing on top of him.

 

“But my Lady Sango you really shouldn't show your true feelings in public like this. I know you crave my naked body but can't you wait until later?” a deep silky voice uttered while its partner in crime, the hand with a mind of it's own, went in for the kill. Needless to say, Hiraikotsu met skull met swirly eyes.

 

“Geez Miroku, when are you gonna learn?”

 

“I don't think he ever will Shippo.” Kagome huffed as she bent over to scoop up the kit that she had come to love as her own. Kirara, who was right behind Shippo, took a moment to check on her master before rubbing up against Kagome's ankles.

 

“See? Kirara and Shippo want you to stay too!”

 

“InuYasha! Let's please not get into that argument again.”

 

“Fine.” He looked over at the monk and slayer who were still entwined in the monk's robes. “Well since you guys obviously know what is going on since you just happened to be walking by, what's your answer?”

 

“Well InuYasha, from what we accidentally overheard, I didn't think we were being given a choice.” Miroku good naturedly retorted as he attempted to help Sango into a standing position while untangling her foot from the hem of his outer robe.

 

“Keh!” was all that was heard.

 

“Actually” interrupted Sango as she stepped in before one ill tempered hanyou could be riled up again. “I think it is a great idea Kagome. How long will you be in your own time before you return?”

 

Kagome turned to InuYasha attempting to gauge his upcoming reaction. “Three days there and four here before making the wish? Is that okay with you InuYasha?”

 

As InuYasha turned away for a moment to keep his face from betraying him, he couldn't help but feel a bit childish at the surge of satisfaction he felt when her words registered. `she's picking us over them. We get one more day than them. Yes!' He swiftly kicked himself mentally. `Aw fuck what am I doing? Didn't we just go over this? Stop it! It doesn't mean she picked me. I mean us. I mean…Oh Kami, what do I mean?' As his eyes started to glaze over, his dazed brain was unable to process that the one causing him this confusion was starting to work herself up into a snit.

 

“InuYasha! InuYasha! INUYASHA!” `Okay that is it!' “SIT BOY! How dare you stand there and ignore me when we're talking about something this important!” Kagome bent over the hanyou with her hands on her hips and foot stomping hard enough to stir up the surrounding earth. She glared down at him waiting for a reply.

 

“Damn it wench! What the hell was that for?” InuYasha started to raise his head as the subjugation spell began to release him from its hold. However, before he could rise up enough to make eye contact he found himself face planted to the ground once again.

 

“SIT! What did you just call me?” By now her already frazzled emotions were causing her to react a bit unreasonably. `Okay girl, calm down count to ten because you're right back where you were a few minutes ago and you don't want to spend your remaining time with him fighting.' “InuYasha?” She questioned as she knelt down beside him on the ground next to the well. “Gomen.” She whispered into his ear. Lets promise not to fight anymore. Okay?”

 

`She's right. Even though I don't want to admit it, we may never see each other after the Jewel is destroyed. I want to make the best of the time we're allowed.' Amber eyes softened from their previous glare and one fang poked out over his bottom lip as he smiled at her. “Ai, Kagome. It's a promise.”

 

A prolonged AWWWW! could be heard from the forgotten peanut gallery which resulted in a blushing miko and hanyou, one monk and kit sporting hanyou related knots upon their heads and one slayer running from her best friend as if her life depended on it.

 

<scene change>

 

Kagome couldn't help but smile as a cool evening breeze caressed her face and shoulders while she and Sango relaxed in the hot spring near Kaede's village. This was one of the activities that she was going to miss most. Sango had become like a sister to her and she was much closer to her than any of the girls she had gown up with back in her own time. Sango was her confidant and she hers.

 

Who would she be able to talk to about her adventures and have them understand? She certainly couldn't talk to her grandfather. He thought all demons should be exorcised. Mom wasn't in the running either, because while she could tell her some things, she certainly couldn't fill her in on the extent of the danger that she and the rest of the group faced on a daily basis. Which left Souta and while she could probably talk to him about everything he really wasn't mature enough to understand. His most likely response would be that he wished he could have gone too because it sounded so cool..

 

`Three years. I can't believe it has been that long. Sometimes it feels so much longer, but at the same time it has really flown by. What am I going to do about Shippo? Who is going to take care of him? I mean I can't really see InuYasha raising him. Poor Shippo wouldn't survive the first year together, considering how they are always at each others throats. Although, they really do act just like brothers. Kaede could, but even though I hate to admit it she is older than most in this era, so that wouldn't be fair to either her or Shippo. Kouga was the only other demon I can think of and Shippo can't stand him. Hmph! That just gives more credence to the idea of InuYasha and Shippo as siblings. Speaking of siblings, Kougo isn't the only other demon after all. Sesshoumaru does kind of owe me for regenerating his arm prior to the final fight with Naraku. However, I can't see him being able to handle Shippo without suppressing his unique spirit even if he takes care of Rin. Let's face it, even if Rin is what you would call precocious, Shippo is in an entirely different class. Okay let's see, if Miroku and Sango got married then they could raise him along with any other children they may have and Shippo could look after their descendents. That is certainly an idea worth pursuing.'

 

Kagome slowly opened her eyes to gaze at the cloudless sky, she recalled the time that she and InuYasha stood outside of Kaede's hut enjoying the evening stars while she explained how the stars just weren't as clear in her time due to modern technology. At first he hadn't seemed too impressed with stargazing, but he surprised her when he let himself relax and enjoy himself. It had become one of her favorite memories.

 

Sliding her gaze over to her companion, she couldn't help feel that she needed to put her two cents in while she still could. She really wanted to be able to be around to see them married and raise a family, but if she couldn't maybe just knowing that they would be together could satisfy her.

 

“Hey Sango?” she asked softly, since the other girl's eyes had also been closed and she looked relaxed almost to the point of sleeping.

 

“Hmmm? What is it Kagome?” Sango inquired as she pulled herself back up onto the submerged rock ledge so that she could give Kagome her full attention. She could tell something was bothering her from the look in her eyes.

 

`Geez how do I start, I mean we have done this before, but what can I say to make it any different? I certainly don't want to guilt her into admitting her feelings to Miroku. Although that is awfully tempting it wouldn't me right. Maybe I should just talk in general at first. Crap where is Mom when you need her' “I wanted to talk to you about relationships” she hastily blurted out.

 

This got Sango's attention. She couldn't help but wonder if this was about someone other than InuYasha, since Kagome could possibly be returning to her own time for good in just seven days. She knew Kagome's feelings towards him. `Heck everyone knew ever since she agreed to stay by his side, except for the bonehead himself. Really, he can be so dense sometimes, but then so can Kagome when it comes to the very same thing. Maybe I can use this conversation to get her to finally admit her feelings to him before its too late. Matte, maybe that's not such a good idea. Would it be cruel for them to finally acknowledge their feelings only to be separated?' Try as she might, she couldn't come up with a quick answer.

 

“ Oookaaay. What is it you want to discuss Kagome?”
