Chapter 5: Just in time

 

The house had white lights decorating the front yard. A large, decorated Christmas tree stood in the picture window, so when anyone went by it would be visible. It filled the house with a yummy, pine smell. The Takahashi's decorations were throughout the house, making it look ready for Christmas.

 

Kagome stood in the kitchen, finishing the last batch of Christmas cookies. She was using the icing Mrs. Takahashi gave her, to write on top of the cookies she was setting out for InuYasha.

 

She had spent the entire day decorating the house. Kagome had first started with the outside, almost falling off the snow covered roof more then once, as she put up the lights. She went out to the Christmas tree farm and cut down a tree. She wanted to wait for InuYasha to do it, but that would have been planning to meet him before the three days. With Mrs. Takahashi's help, she decorated the tree and the inside of the house.

 

It was now, 7:30 and Izayoi was at work. InuTaisho, Mr. Takahashi, was in the living room, watching sports center. He had been amazed when he saw the house, and immediately took a liking to Kagome. As it turned out, he had gotten a job at the Christmas tree farm, until the season was over.

 

Kagome glanced at the clock on the oven and bit her lip. She had been working for hours. There was flour and cookie batter on her face. Her hair was falling out of it's pony tail, and her apron was falling off. InuYasha would be getting off now. She really had to hurry.

 

Quickly, Kagome cleaned up her mess and washed all of the dishes. After putting the dishes away, she put the majority of the cookies in a cookie jar, and placed the ones that she had made especially for InuYasha on a plate on the table.

 

“Bye, Mr. Takahashi! Thanks for letting me decorate your house!” Kagome said, as she walked through the living room to the front door. She put on her snow boots and her coat.

 

“No problem. Come back anytime.” Mr. Takahashi got up and shook her hand, before she went out the door. Kagome shut the door behind her on the way out, and skipped happily to Sango's truck. She couldn't wait until InuYasha saw what she had done.

 

`I hope I see him tomorrow. That's the last day for the whole three meetings thing.' Kagome thought as she turned on the engine and backed out of the driveway with ease.

 

As she drove back home, she passed a Chevy blazer, and smiled, knowing it was InuYasha. What if she didn't run into him tomorrow? Then he wasn't her true love, right? Kagome shook her head, deciding at that instant that even if she didn't get to see him tomorrow, she would still be friends with him. No, she couldn't be friends with him. Kagome didn't want that. She wanted to be more then friends. She hadn't known him long, but there was something about him. Even if they didn't run into each other tomorrow, she would still go out with him. Who cared if that's not how it worked for everyone else in her family. Kagome would just have to take fate into her own hands. But only if she had too.

InuYasha almost turned around when he saw what was supposed to be his house. He was sure he had to have passed his house, and this was just a look a like. This house had tons of Christmas lights and a big tree in the window.

 

Slowly, he pulled into the driveway, and parked his blazer. Skeptically, he looked at all the lights as he walked to the front door.

 

“Dad, what the hell is going on?” InuYasha asked, once he got in the house and saw his dad watching TV on the couch.

 

“What do you mean?” His dad asked, as if nothing had changed. InuYasha rolled his eyes, growing annoyed.

 

“Why is everything decorated? I thought we weren't doing much for Christmas.”

 

“Oh. Yes, that. Well, I guess you could say a Christmas angel couldn't see you go without Christmas. Therefore, she came over and fixed the place up. I think she left something for you in the kitchen.” InuTaisho said, simply. InuYasha walked through the living room, with his snowy shoes still on, tracking snow throughout the house.

 

On the bar, sat a plate of Christmas cookies. They were shaped like Santa Clause, Rudolf, presents, mistletoe, Christmas trees, and normal cookies. Everyone of them had something written on them in red or green icing.

 

A Rudolf shaped one said `Merry X-mas!' A Christmas tree with green icing said `like the decorations?' The rest of the cookies also had short little questions or cute little Christmas like sayings, and quotes from Christmas songs. One of the chocolate chip cookies said `Dear Santa, All I want...' Then, the cookie next to it said, `is the perfect guy.' The last cookie, buried beneath all the others had a phone number on it. Kagome's phone number.

 

InuYasha smiled and grabbed one of the cookies, careful not to eat the one with her number, and tasted it. The yummy cookie was still warm and gooey. Grabbing the entire plate of cookies, InuYasha headed up to his room.

 

What would he do if he didn't see Kagome tomorrow? Did that mean she would never speak to him again? If that was the case, why did she go to all this trouble to make his holiday better? InuYasha picked up his cell phone and dialed the number on the cookie.

I have not updated in forever. Sooooo sorry about that, but I wasn't allowed on the computer. Just as a warning, if I don't update for like a month, it doesn't mean I quit my stories. It just means that I got like a D in Spanish, and my dad wont let me on the computer cuz hes evil. My Spanish teacher is pure evil. I sort of caused a mini riot during class last week and the teacher has something against me. Plus, she takes off all these points for spelling incorrectly. I mean, anyone who reads my stories can tell have spelling issues. I can't spell in English and she expects me to be able to spell in Spanish. Whatever.

 

So anyway. Thanks for all the reviews. I have a BIG favor to ask you all. My friend, Smitty Dragon, and I started this one original story. I would really appreciate it if you guys could read and review it. I know its not InuYasha. But, it has some romance in it if that helps.(not between any InuYasha characters) Its mostly an angsty, sci-fi, kind of thing. It is about an abused teenager, who is also a werewolf. He gets mixed in with this really ditsy vampire chick named Starr, and hell erupts. Smitty Dragon does Frost's part (that's the name of the boy who turns into a werewolf) and I do Starr's part. The story is under my name and is called Deathless. So please, check it out. The first few chapters aren't the best, but it gets a lot better.

 

Thanks! Happy Holidays!

 

TTFN!!
