Back at home, Kagome told them the news and was greeted with many congrats from her family and was embraced by her mother. "Oh Kagome, welcome home dear!"
Kagome reciprocates the hug. "Thanx mom! I'm glad to be home."
After they release each other, Kagome's grandpa speaks up. "It's nice to have you home again Kagome."
"Thanx grandpa!"
"So how long will you being staying this time?"
"What? I thought I just told you that we finally finished collecting all the shards and complete the Shikon jewel."
"I was just joking. Geesh! Can't an old man ever joke with his granddaughter."
"Well, I didn't find it funny grandpa. But if you must know, I do plan on going back but I don't know how soon as of yet. I wanna stay in school awhile since I have a lot of catching up to do so I'll try to just visit Inu Yasha on weekends.
"Gah! Why must my granddaughter associate herself with worthless demons?"
"Granpa!"
Kagome's mother interupts, "Inu Yasha is sweet demon. Don't worry Kagome! I don't mind you hangout with him."
"Thanx mom!"
"Gah!" After saying that, grandpa leaves the room.
Then Souta asks, "Kagome, is Inu Yasha not going to come here and visit us? I always love it when he visits us."
"I'm afraid not Souta. We never talked about him visiting me or us although I wouldn't be surprised if he did suddenly showed up. He might miss up and decide on his own to visit."
"I hope so."
"Me too."
"Well, I'm almost done cooking supper. Why don't you two come to the table to eat?" Kagome's mother asks them. Then nod and follow her to the kitchen. After dinner she calls all her friends and chats with them for a while, telling all of them that she would finally be back at school regularly. While talking with them, one of her friends talk her into having a shopping blowout on the weekend with all the four of them. She tries to refuse since she was looking forward to visiting Inu Yasha and the others but she couldn't talk herself out of it no matter what. Her friends just wouldn't take no for an answer. Finally she gives in and agrees to go. Also, one of them must have phoned Hojo for it wasn't long after she finished talking to her third and final friend, Ayumi, that Hojo phones and asks her for another date this weekend, which she refutably turns down again, telling him that her friends are taking her shopping this weekend so she can't go with him and maybe another time. He accepts and they finish talking. Afterwards, Kagome goes to her room and looks out her window. Her eyes settle on the full moon and she starts thinking about Inu Yasha. 'Sorry Hojo, but I'm only interested in Inu Yasha. I love him. I always did and I always will. That I know for sure and when I get back, I'm gonna tell him. I can tell that he feels the same way about me but he keeps holding back. Why? Why won't you let me see your true self Inu Yasha? Why keep hiding things from me? Well, I intend to get them all out of you. Be prepared Inu Yasha. Since Naraku is gone for good, we can finally be together. Nothing can stop us now!' Kagome then takes the jewel around neck and looks at it. 'Sure, I know more monsters will be after the jewel but you'll be there to protect me. Right?' Kagome takes the jewel off of her neck and places it in the drawer beside her bed. She stares at the moon one final time before falling soundly asleep. 'Remember I love you Inu Yasha and good night my love.'
Back in feudal Japan, Inu Yasha sits on the ground with his back against a tree. He grasps the rosary around his neck and starts thinking about Kagome. 'Kagome, I love you so much but it would never work out between us. Never!' Suddenly he is interrupted from his thoughts as Miroku approaches and sits down beside him.
"You miss her, don't you Inu Yasha?"
"Bud out monk, it's none of your damn business."
"Fine, we'll talk about something else then. What do you think? Do you think Sango will still stay with me a bare my children since Naraku is finally defeated? She already agreed to but she's still reluctant for some unknown reason."
"Not a chance monk unless you start changing your ways."
"I'm not stupid Inu Yasha, I know that. I already intend to do that and stay true to her. I just wanted an honest opinion from you, that's all. No matter what, I'm not going to give up on Sango and neither should you give up on Kagome."
"But you don't understand Miroku. I..."
'Brilliant! I brought him to focus on Kagome once again.' "What's wrong Inu Yasha? Finish what you were going to say."
"Fine but you have to promise not to tell anyone else."
"I promise Inu Yasha."
"I'll admit to you Miroku that I love her but we just can't be together."
"Well why not? You two love each other. Isn't that enough?"
"I know damn well how she feels about me. It's been obvious and it's also kinda in her smell."
Miroku blinks a few times. "Really? Could to tell me if Sango..."
"Drop it Miroku! I'm telling you squat on Sango because first it's really none of my business and second I really don't know. It's only Kagome's scent that I'm attracted to so my senses are really keen on her when she's around. It something I just can't help." Inu Yasha blushes after admitting all that.
"Okay! I understand Inu Yasha. So lets get back to why you can't be with her."
"Well first of all, we live in two different eras and secondly because I'm half demon. Remember? And I'm afraid that I get hurt her or even worse kill her if I ever turn into a full-blooded demon again. I could never forgive myself if I ever harmed her in any way."
"Inu Yasha! Are you really gonna let minor details like that get in the way between the two of you? I don't think she would really care about those petty excuses."
"Really?"
"Uh-huh! She would love you no matter what and I'm really sure you two could work something out. After all, besides her, only you can travel to her time. That's a sure sign that you two are meant for each other. I'm sure of it."
"Alright! I believe you but I'm not ready to make a decision yet. I still need time to think a few more things over but thanks for your advice Miroku. I really appreciate this talk we had."
"Your welcome Inu Yasha! Anytime! Oh! By the way, if you really miss her that much, perhaps you should to and visit her."
"Thank, I think I'll do just that." Inu Yasha gets up and departs to go off and thinks things on his own.
Miroku mumbles to himself, "Anytime Inu Yasha!" Then he scowls, "And maybe next time you can return the favor and help me with my problem, Sango."
Inu Yasha yells, "I HEARD THAT MONK!!! YOU BETTER WATCH THAT MOUTH OF YOURS BEFORE MY FIST SMASHES IT!!!" Miroku winces in fear and shuts up then Inu Yasha decides to head for the well. He jumps in which transports him to Kagome's world. He jumps out and walks out of the well house. He sniffs the air for Kagome's scent which is faint. He heads off in that direction and finds himself outside her bedroom window. He opens it and quietly steps inside knowing that she is sleeping. He walks over to her bed and takes his time to stare at her sleeping form, a the while admiring her and smiles to himself. 'I love you Kagome and I've made my decision. When you come back, I'll try to give ourselves a chance if you'll let me.' With that said, Inu Yasha departs and heads back to the well. He jumps back in and is transported back to his own time while Kagome rolls over in her bed and smiles contently to herself.
