“So he says to the two giant Samoans guys, `You want to fight about it!' And he actually thinks this was a GOOD decision!” Shippou laughed next to a fuming Kouga. “I mean it was priceless, Kouga stomping to his feet and trying to act all tough in front of this girl.”
 
“She was a VERY hot girl! And she didn't tell me she had a boyfriend!” Kouga interrupted to point out which Shippou ignored.
 
“But then as if the two couldn't have pounded us into meat as it was, they call over their entire gang which somehow is like every other person at the freaking hotel!”
 
“I swear there were like twenty of them!” Inuyasha pointed out laughing and taking another sip of his drink to let Shippou continue. Kagome looked back between the three friends giggling with Sango over the dark lighting of the restaurant they had stopped in for dinner that night.
 
“The best part of it really was at that point Inuyasha was halfway across the terrace and I turn to grab Kouga before his legs get broken, and he had actually stopped to ask for her number first. The wave of destruction left behind with us running and that football team of guys was insane. I know I personally took out at least three chairs and a table dragging this idiot behind me.” Shippou jerked a thumb back to the still glaring Kouga from the story they had choose to share.
 
“Yea and wasn't that the night you twisted your ankle and couldn't surf for a week Inu?”
 
“That's right! I messed it up jumping that wall to scramble and get our car turned on before they really did kill us.” Inuyasha glanced up as if just now remembering this rather important detail.
 
“You…are…my hero.” A gaping Miroku said to Kouga who laughed at his expression, Sango promptly smacked him hard enough to slump him over the table.
 
Kagome slid the cuff of the light jacket she had over yet another tank top and bikini that was all it had felt like she had worn in five days so far, and checked her watch. “How did it already get so late?” She asked herself honestly wondering.
 
“Time flies when you're having fun.” Shippou said with a wink.
 
“Kagome's right though, we should start heading back.” Sango stood up soon the rest of the table following and picking up their things having already paid almost an hour ago and been talking since. As they walked out Inuyasha reached forward to snag Kagome's hand pulling her back for a moment longer undetected by the others.
 
“When will I see you again?” He purred in her ear. Kagome giggled shoving him back.
 
“Whenever you like, you know how to find me.”
 
“Tomorrow then? I want to show you around to some of the more secluded beaches.” Kagome arched an eyebrow delicately but her heart had just stopped beating below her smooth exterior.
 
“What type of girl do you take me for Inuyasha? I'm not sure what you had in mind from seclusion but-” He raised a hand up pushing the tips of his fingers to her lips effectively silencing her.
 
“For sight seeing Kagome, beaches sight seeing. I didn't have anything else in mind, but it's good to know your thoughts are constantly in the gutter.”
 
“Hey!” She squeaked her cheeks flushing, Inuyasha laughed at their rosy color giving her a chaste peck on the forehead on top of her soft bangs.
 
“Till then,” he whispered winking at her and jogging to his awaiting friends. Kagome waved goodbye to them as the van peeled out and climbed back into her own ride. She sighed happily sitting down and buckling up waiting for the jeep to move.
 
“Guys?” Miroku and Sango both swiveled around from the front seat giving a bewildered Kagome quite the interested stare.
 
“So, what was that all about?” Sango said dryly. Kagome's face broke into a worried grin as she waved her hands.
 
“Nothing, I don't know what you're talking about. Inuyasha just wanted to know if I could hang out tomorrow, its nothing big!” Miroku ironically narrowed his eyes even more than Sango's at her and Kagome squeaked under their scrutiny.
 
“Drive Miro.” Sango commanded, mouthing `we'll talk later' to the blushing girl in the back seat. Miroku pouted but obeyed turning around and starting up their jeep for the short drive home. There wasn't very many places that required a long drive to on an island so small.
 
Kagome shuffled her feet in the back seat keeping her head down and letting the wind rip through her pony tail pulling bits of it free. The air outside was chilly running across her and she was thankful she had remembered to grab her jacket pulling it tighter around her small form. She fretted her lip wondering what Sango was going to drill her about, they liked Inuyasha and his friends, so what's the problem? She wondered idly, pausing her depressing thoughts to look up and focus on the thousands of twinkling stars above her.
 
The sky never looked like this where she had grown up, and Kagome was positive she had never seen the stars so clearly. Usually she could barely make any out under the haze of light pollution, but here they were crystal clear and untainted by the busy hassles of a modern city. Things were quiet on the tiny island in the middle of the sea, and the stars guarded it respectfully every night.
 
But all too soon Kagome found herself under a roof again, tossing her purse into a corner and opening her balcony door to let in the dark night air.
 
“So what's going on with you two anyways?” Kagome turned to find Sango lounging in her bed, her brown eyes staring up at her in question.
 
“I don't know we're….” Kagome stripped off her jacket stalling and trying to word it right. “Friends.” She finally settled for, but it still didn't seem correct. Sango raised a silent but judgmental eyebrow.
 
“No Kagome, we're friends and I'm pretty sure I've never kissed your forehead.”
 
“You might have!” Kagome said quickly, but from the flat look Sango gave her she knew that wasn't the right response. “Sorry.” She mumbled.
 
“I don't want to get on your case Kagome, it's your life and Inuyasha is a nice guy. But we're only here for two weeks, and I don't want to see you get hurt when we have to leave.”
 
“I know…” Kagome plopped down on the bed next to her. “I just want to have some fun for a change. To not worry about the future and how this could affect my 5 year plan or something, and I guess just live in the present for once like everyone else does.” Sango nodded kindly next to her.
 
“I know how you feel girl.”
 
“There's no definition for what Inuyasha and I are doing because we haven't talked about it. Why waste time talking about something that just isn't important, we both know after this we'll probably never see each other again. It's a silent understanding I'd say.” It was the best explanation she could string together for both Sango and herself but it still sounded pathetic even to her own ears. Kagome frowned faintly deciding not the think about things like that again this trip if she could help it.
 
Sango stood up from the bed turning in the doorway of the room. “Just be careful Kagome.” She said and then left heading in the direction of her own room. Kagome watched her walk away and let her eyes drift as she listened to the sounds of Miroku getting ready for bed and beyond him the ocean washing up on the shore.
 
“I'll try.” She got up and closed the glass sliding door.
 
----------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
 
 
Kagome's eyes fluttered open on their own, devoid of the crashing alarm clock she had been used to for as long as she could remember. But life wasn't like that here, and she was awoken by the sounds of the ocean just beyond her window and the sunlight caressing her face. Smiling she stretched waking up slowly and rolling through her comforter.
 
“Yes?” She asked when a soft knock came on her door.
 
“It's me.” Sango called through the door.
 
“Come in.” Kagome yawned pulling the covers up higher. Sango opened the door easing through the crack and closed it quietly again walking over to lay down on the bed with her friend. Kagome cracked an eye at her. “You're up early.” She smiled playfully but Sango just gave a groggy sigh and crawled under the covers with her. “I guess not after all.” Kagome laughed at her lazy friend. For all of Sango's determination and competitive attitude, she sure was a sloth in the mornings.
 
“It's Saturday,” she mumbled.
 
“It's a vacation every day here, what's it matter?”
 
“Can you believe we've almost been here a week already?” Kagome's heart clenched strangely in her chest.
 
“Let's not talk about that.” She sighed reaching over to run her hands through her hair lightly scratching in a chaste gesture. “So what's on the itinerary for today with you two?”
 
“Oh that's right, Inuyasha is whisking you away on a romantic island tour.” Sango gave her a wicked smirk and Kagome nudged her.
 
“You shush or I'll push you out of bed.” Kagome mumbled cuddling more into her pillows.
 
“That's ok, Miroku and I do have plans actually and knowing him he's been up since sunrise doing god knows what.” Kagome arched an eyebrow.
 
“You two have plans huh?” Kagome stretched the word suggestively. Sango huffed getting out of bed.
 
“Don't EVEN lil miss surfer boyfriend.” She said making her way out the door her hips swaying.
 
“He's not my boyfriend!” Kagome sat up in bed yelling but Sango was already gone.
 
 
----------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------
 
 
A loud honk made Kagome almost drop her spoon in her cereal as her eyes flicked up to the open patio doors. She frowned returning to her breakfast before it was interrupted again the honk coming from the street right by her balcony. Abandoning her cereal she stood up to go investigate the strange noise.
 
Stepping out into the warm morning sunshine she waved happily seeing her friends white van only a few blocks away. They pulled up under her and Inuyasha leaned out the window cupping his hands around his mouth.
 
“You never told me which condo you're staying in and you didn't answer your phone!”
 
“Sorry!” She laughed leaning over the railing to shout down at him. Inuyasha said a quick goodbye to his companions jumping out of the van to stand down below her. “Come around back to the stairs!” Kagome yelled and walked over opening the door to meet him when he made his way up.
 
“Good morning.” She chirped happily.
 
“Morning.” Inuyasha smiled walking inside. “Wow, nice place you got going here.”
 
“Yea, it belongs to Miroku's parents. We couldn't have afforded a place on our own like this.”
 
“I feel ya there.” Inuyasha said in agreement walking down the hall to peek into the bedrooms.
 
“Please don't go in my room it's a total mess!” Kagome shouted after him washing her bowl out in the sink and setting it down to finish cleaning later.
 
“You've seen the state of our van; you wouldn't even want to see what our house looks like.” Inuyasha chuckled reappearing. “So are you ready to get going?”
 
“Yep, let me just grab my things and write Sango a note when I'll be back.” Scribbling down a quick reminder Kagome tacked it onto the fridge door with a magnet and picked up her purse sliding into her favorite `slippers' as they called them there.
 
Swinging the keys around her finger Kagome stepped outside locking the front door after Inuyasha joined her and headed downstairs to the jeep.
 
“So where are we going?”
 
“This amazing beach by a gypsy camp sight.”
 
“What?” Kagome stopped in her tracks not at all expecting to hear that.
 
“Relax,” Inuyasha chuckled. “We're going to stop by a few on the way there too but I'm saving the best for last. It's a really quiet stretch of beach some of the gypsy's camp near. It's not like what you're picturing I'm sure. It's beautiful though, you'll love it, promise.” He added on for extra measure reassuring her once again.
 
“Ok then.” Kagome smiled getting inside the jeep she had demanded she be able to use today and stolen from Miroku, turning on the ignition.
 
The entire drive around the outer highway of Kauai couldn't have taken more than an hour to get around one side of the island completely; it really was a tiny island. They stopped along the way for sight seeing pictures and snacks. And as promised Inuyasha gave her a total tour of the best beaches as they stopped to spend some time at each. The last one of his list of favorites the one he had described to her, Anahola Bay.
 
He told her to slow down until she found the tiny gravel road she was looking for, it was so obscure she would have flown by it had he not pointed it out. She parked nervously eyeing a few groups of people who were giving her confused looks and stepped out.
 
“Howzit?” Inuyasha called waving.
 
“Hey Inu,” a few voices to Kagome's surprise called back. The rest of the stray people returned their attentions away from them and Kagome and Inuyasha walked onto the beach unnoticed.
 
“You weren't kidding,” Kagome gasped taking in the sight around her. It truly did look like part of a post card and the beach was almost completely devout of any other people. The shore curved around the small inlet in a series of cliffs and the water was calm and clear as far as she could see. A layer of palm trees rounded the edges of the entire stretch of beach and woods beyond them near the far end that looked lush and tropical. The water sparkled and the sand was baby powder soft beneath her feet.
 
“Told you…” Inuyasha grinned cockily at her. “Come on,” Inuyasha smiled reaching out to grab her hand as they walked farther down to the beach away from the few sparse people that were lounging. Kagome raised her free hand up to shadow her eyes from the sunlight, all she could see around her was paradise and it was like being in heaven. Walking down far enough to the nearing end of the beach as the cove of rocks intersected Inuyasha sat down in the sand with a happy smile.
 
“I'm surprised you didn't bring your board.”
 
“I can surf anytime; I wanted to hang out with you.” Kagome blushed a bit smiling wider and quickly changed the subject.
 
“Come on!” She giggled tugging his hand to try and get him to stand again. “I want to go in the ocean!”
 
“You've got legs of your own don't you?” He teased grinning.
 
“Inuu,” She started to plead with puppy dog eyes but instead got a bolder better idea. “Guess I'll just have no reason to take off my shirt and shorts then and you'll never see my cute little bikini.” This proved much more effective as with a flurry of sand Inuyasha was knee deep in the ocean and shirtless. Kagome died laughing as he waved his hands for her to join him and splashed around like a kid. She complied though keeping her end of the bargain and wiggled out of her clothes throwing them into the sand to chase after him giggling.
 
Kagome didn't bother worrying about her hair and dove into the water delighting in the perfect temperature of it rolling across her skin. She opened her eyes and could see everything perfectly the water as clear as the air above it; her eyes were used to the ocean sting after swimming in it daily for the last week almost.
 
Swimming up on his turned back she pounced on Inuyasha mischievously, giggling and squeaking when he grabbed her and pulled her under with him. When she opened her eyes to look at him she nearly laughed the way his silvery locks were floating around him untamed and glinting reflections off the water. She burst up out of the water gulping in air smiling the entire time.
 
“I don't think I've ever been to such a beautiful place.” Inuyasha nodded with approval and smiled at her before diving back under the water and swimming off. “Where are you going!” Kagome yelled and when he didn't show signs of stopping she huffed and dove in after him.
 
“Inuyasha!” She yelled starting to get nervous they were so far out. The ground was so far-off below her even in the crisp emerald water she could only see a distant haze. Her heart pounded when she looked back up ahead and didn't see him. “Inuyasha!” She yelled again twisting in the water to stare around her.
 
She shrieked when he popped up in front of her with a splash. “Yea?” He asked like nothing was wrong.
 
“You scared me!” She insisted, “We're too far out, lets go back.” Reaching out Kagome tugged on his arm to try and get him to move quicker but he didn't budge.
 
“Not just yet,” His eyes gleamed in mischief.
 
“But…why not?” She insisted her nerves getting the better of her again.
 
“Just trust me. Come here,” He pulled her closer to him hugging her and keeping them both a float. “If you're scared just hang onto me, there isn't a better surfer than me out there.” He grinned and twisted around to position her so she was hanging on his back looping her arms around his shoulders.
 
“Ok…” Kagome finally agreed hesitantly getting a good grip, and she was thankful she had because he torpedoed as soon as he felt her weight on his back. She gasped in delight her former anxieties disappearing as they swam through the water it splashing up around them. She could feel the water below her and the wind across her face and was having the time of her life until he came to an abrupt halt almost flinging her off and dropped his grip on her.
 
“Inu!” Kagome yelled splashing down in the now far too deep for her comfort level water.
 
“Trust me Kagome.” He laughed swimming just beyond her reach until she felt like she was chasing him to anchor her to safety. So she paused and she stayed silent trusting whatever he had in store for them. Wading her feet through the endless ocean and following him farther a little bit he turned around suddenly and stretched his hand out to her. Kagome took it and gasped in surprise when he pulled her forward and she felt a surface below her.
 
“My favorite sandbar on the whole island.” He explained happily and Kagome looked up at him with a delighted smile.
 
She jumped into his arms giving him a hug then girlishly giggled swimming around the sand bar like a two year old. Inuyasha chuckled laying back in relaxing in the solitude the middle of the ocean provided.
 
“How big is this?” Kagome asked splashing around somewhere behind him.
 
“I dunno, it goes for a while that way,” he tilted his head then lay back floating with his back barely brushing the wet sand. Kagome giggled coming next to him to sit down and look around quietly for a few moments, seeming to absorb the scene around her.
 
“You're so lucky…to be able to come to this wonderful place so often.” She sighed resting her chin in her palm her pretty eyelashes low and bits of water clinging to them. Inuyasha cocked his head up eyeing her.
 
“Hawaii is the closest place to heaven on earth, and some day I'm going to come live here and never go back to the mainland.”
 
“Really?” Kagome looked down at him her eyes curious.
 
“Yep, got everything I need here. Nice beaches, good waves, good drinks, friends and a hell of a lot of hot chicks.” She shoved him playfully.
 
“But, it's so far from your home, how can you just decide and be sure its right to move?” Inuyasha shrugged.
 
“I don't know…you just know.” He smiled at how perplexed she looked and drug her down with him into the shallow water kissing her. Kagome's heart was racing again as he kept intoxicating her with every touch his lips made on her skin and despite being in the cool waters her body felt like it was starting to burn. The waves lapped at them coming over to spill across her body, rising up over her chest to pour off the other side and dip into her stomach.
 
But Kagome didn't understand it, how someone she barely knew could touch her like a long felt lover and strike feelings in her she didn't know she had in the first place. She kissed him harder to keep the thoughts at bay and wrapped her arms around his neck; thinking didn't bother her again for quite some time.
 
 
----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------
 
 
“You actually made out in the surf!” Kagome's cheeks blushed as she looked over to her hissing friend. “That's so…so…Hollywood!” Kagome glared at her running a comb through her hair.
 
“Annnyyyways, so are you coming with us to the party tonight or not?” Sango pressed a finger to her chin squinting like she was thinking really hard.
 
“Will there be drinking?”
 
“Yes.”
 
“Will there be guys?”
 
“Yes.” `Miroku's going though, like you'll be interested in anyone else.' Kagome thought with a smirk.
 
“Ok I'm in!” Sango clapped happily and Kagome rolled her eyes fluffing her hair back up with some mousse after her shower. The boys whistled when she walked out in a towel and Sango effectively flicked them off following Kagome into her room.
 
“My bikini covers less than this though…” Kagome thought, she'd never be able to understand how a man's mind worked.
 
“So where is it going to be at?”
 
“One of the smaller hotels they said. I think it'll be some big surfer fest,” Kagome shrugged smiling and pulled out an outfit from her drawer. She got ready quickly slipping into a cute yet comfortable skirt and halter top, primping her hair in the mirror once more and applying some light lip gloss for a little shimmer. No make up tonight, she loved being tan enough to get away with that!
 
Walking out Kagome didn't miss Inuyasha's eyes tracing up and down her quickly with a smile of approval, or Miroku doing the same to Sango, but Sango of course missed this completely.
 
“Ready?” Inuyasha asked and Kagome nodded threading her arm around his and hugging to him as the two couples walked out for a night of fun.
