InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Rox's Livejournal Drabbles ❯ Wish Upon a Shooting Star ( Chapter 4 )

On a dark summer night, Kagome sat on a hill looking out at the stars. InuYasha and Shippo came and sat beside her, and they were soon joined by Miroku and Sango.

 

“Look!” Kagome said pointing into the sky. “A shooting star - everyone make a wish!”

 

“Keh,” said InuYasha derisively. “A wish?”

 

“Just do it InuYasha!”

 

Everyone closed their eyes and made their wishes. When she was done, Kagome looked up at InuYasha and smiled. She wondered at what he had wished when he flushed and looked away.

 

The next morning Shippo was digging in Kagomes back pack. Triumphantly he pulled out the last lollipop from the bottom.

 

“My wish came true!” Shippo said, delighted.

 

“That's what you wished for runt?” InuYasha said with a sneer.

 

“Better to wish for what I can have,” said Shippo, licking the lollipop. “That way you are not disappointed.”

 

The hanyou muttered something under his breath and stalked away. Kagome had gone to the river to brush her teeth, and he headed that way. As he knelt down by her side at the riverbank, she had just rinsed her mouth and spit, and as she came back up, facing him, she got a little too close. Bumping into InuYasha face with hers, their lips met, and after being a startled a moment, he gave her a soft, sweet, lingering kiss. They broke apart and Kagome blushed, looking away.

 

“Something you wanted to tell me InuYasha?” Kagome said, unable to look at him.

 

“Um…my wish just came true,” InuYasha said wonderingly.

 

“Mine did too…” Kagome whispered back.

 

Gently, InuYasha reached out and took her hand in his, and they were silent.

 

`Yes, it is better to wish for what you could have,' thought InuYasha. `But I did not believe I could have it….wishes, keh.”
