[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Everyone was silent at first as they took in Inuyasha's story. Then Sango jumped up and hugged Inuyasha.
"You kind hearted devil, thank you," Sango said as she cried onto his shoulders.
"Feh," Inuyasha replied, trying to hide his smile.
Sango released Inuyasha and hugged Kagome next.
"I'm so glad we will be able to stay together," Sango said, holding Kagome tighter.
"Me too," Kagome replied, squeezing Sango back.
After the girls broke apart, Miroku stood up. He walked over and picked Sango up, spinning her around. He then kissed her pasionately in front of the group. When the kiss ended, Sango was a deeper red then she ahd ever been before.
"You know what, I think you two could use some time alone. Inuyasha, why don't we go and spend some time on my side of the well," Kagome suggested.
"Did I miss something?" Inuyasha asked, wondering when those two had become a couple.
"I'll explain later. Shippo, I want you to stay here with Kaede ok? Behave yourself while we're gone. Come on Inuyasha," Kagome pulled the confused hanyou out of the hut and towards the well.

"And so I thought Inuyasha and I could hang out here for a while, and give Miroku and Sango some privacy," Kagome had just finished telling her parents about how they ahd defeated Naraku, and how Inuyasha had used the jewel.
"So I'll live as long as you and Tai?" Nisume asked, "and Sota and Grandpa as well?"
Kagome nodded.
"Oh, Inuyasha, thank you!" she hugged him tightly and shed tears of joy on his shoulder.
'This seems to be happening alot,' Inuyasha thought.
"You're a good man Inuyasha, Kagome is lucky to have you to look out for her," Taiken said, placing a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder.
Inuyasha glanced over at the female hanyou. She was smiling at him. She looked so happy. Inuyahsa loved it when he made her smile, instead of cry or yell.
"You know Kagome, you guys really deserve a vacation. You've been working so hard, you deserve to relax. Why don't you and Inuyasha go and spend the next week at our cabin?" Nisume suggested.
"Thats a great idea mom, what do you think Inuyasha?" Kagome turned towards him.
"I guess we could use a break," Inuyasha replied.
"Oh this is going to be great. You'll love it up there Inuyasha. Our cabin sits right on a beautiful, clear lake," Kagome said, "We should go ahead and get you a few outfits so that you can blend in a little better."
Kagome ran upstairs to get some hats to cover their ears, Inuyasha in tow.
"Are you sure this is a good idea Nisume, leaving those tow alone up there?" Taiken asked.
"I think they deserve the break, and Inuyasha will take good care of our little girl," Nisue answered him.
"We'll see."

"What's this do?" Inuyasha pushed a button on the door, making the window go down.
"Inuyasha, I told you not to touch anything," Kagome said she she swatted the hanyou's hand away.
Inuyasha and Kagome were in the back of a taxi, on their way to the cabin. Kagome had already gotten Inuyasha a whole new wardrobe as well as a few new outfits for herself.
"We're here," the driver said.
"How much do we owe you?" Kagome asked.
"Don't worry, you mother already took care of that part." the man replied.
"Oh, ok. Inuyasha, could you get our bags?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha 'feh'd as he went to retrieve the bags. Kagome climbed the steps upto the front porch and unlocked the dooe. She stepped inside just as Inuaysha came up behind her. They stood in the living room looking around. There was a lafge sofa and two recliners set around the tv. Seperated from the room by three wooden columns was the kitchen and dining room table. In the back corner of the dining area was a door leading to the bedroom, which had a batchroom attached. Inuyasha set the bags down next to the sofa. Kagome threw a couple of blankets onto the couch.
"This is where you'll be sleeping Inuyasha," Kagome said, pointing to the couch, "don't worry about the clothes, I'll put those away later. Right now, I'm going to go and make us some lunch."
Kagome went into the kithen and pulled out some ramen. A friend of theirs had gone ahead and stocked the pantry fro them.
After they had finished their lunch, and Kagome had put away all of their things, Kagome suggested they go for a swim.
"They are called swim trunks," Kagome said as Inuyasha held the foreign cloth in front of him.
"Wheres the rest of it?" Inuyasha looked at the shorts questioningly.
"That's the whole thing," Kagome replied, "Just put it on and meet me outside ok.
Kagome had already put her swimsuit on underneath her t-shirt, so she headed down to the lake. About ten minutes later, Inuyasha appeared on the front porch in a pair of red swim trunks, trimmed in white.
"Kagome, this looks stupid," he grumbled as he walked down the steps and towards the lake.
"No, actually Inuyasha, those look really good on you," Kagome said blushing a bit.
Inuyasha ignored her comment and walked down to the waters edge. He noticed Kagome was standing about knee deep in the water. She was wearing a black bikini top with white board shorts. Inuyasha took in her feminine curves and watched her hair blow in the wind. He couldn't help but think about the couple of times he had 'accidently' seen her neaked. She looked incredible.
"Whats the amtter Inuaysha? You aren't scared of a little water are you?" Kagome asked, splashing a little water on him.
"Very funny whench," He said as he ran into the water.
Inuyasha sent a wave of water at Kagome, completley soaking her hair.
"Hey!" Kagome yelled.
"You look like a wet dog," Inuyasha laughed.
"Oh yeah, sit boy," Kagome sent Inuyasha underwater, "Now whos the wet dog?"
"You're gonna pay for that!" Inuyasha dove at Kagome and pulled her underwater.
Their play fight went on like this for about half and hour longer before Kagome decided that was enough. She sat Inuyasha and then ran inside to dry off. Once the spell wore off, Inuyasha ran into the cabin. He heard Kagome in the bedroom and went to go teach her a lesson for sitting him. When he got there, he found that the door was locked.
"Just wait a minute, I'm changing," Kagome hollered.
"Feh," Inuyasha said as he went and sat down on one of the recliners and turned on the tv. Kagome had taught him how to work one when had come to her time once before.
When Kagome came out, she had a white sundress on that buttoned down the front. Her hair was swept up into a bun. Inuaysa was so distracted that he forgot about getting her back.
"I set out some clothes for you, you can go change and I'll finish dinner," Kagome went to go finish the meal she had started before they went out to the lake.
When Inuyasha came out Kagome had already set the table. There was a pot of spaghetti and some garlic bread in the center. Kagome saw Inuyasha enter and was compltley blown away. He had on a pair of dark denim jeans and a black button down shirt. He look incredible in modern day clothes. They showed off his muscular body.
"Go ahead and sit down Inuyasha," her comment as followed by a loud crash, "oops, sorry."
"Think before you speak would ya?" Inuyasha snapped as he took a seat.
Their conversation throught he meal was fairly casual. They talked about Miroku and Sango's relationship and how much Shippo had grown since they first met him, etc. Somehow their conversation turned to the future.
"Kagome what are you going to do now?" Inuyasha asked, "Even though the search is complete, will you still come back to visit us?"
"I guess so, I mean I really can't stand to be away from Shippo and I love having Sango to talk to. Shes like a sister to me. With me being a hanyou nwo, it'd be hard for me to stay in this time. I thought maybe I would stay in the Fuedal Era most of the time and look after Shippo and that way I could be near Sang and Miroku too. Maybe I could train to be a Miko with Kaede, and then I could take over for her someday. With the well remaining open, I'll still be able to visit my family here," Kagome answered.
"So, where do I fit into all of that?" Inuyasha asked.
"Are you even going to be around?" Kagome replied.
"Why wouldn't I be?" Inuaysha questioned.
"Naraku is dead, so Kikyo can bring you to hell with her now," Kagome twirled her spaghetti.
"What makes you think I'm going to go with her?"
"Well I don't know Inuyasha, maybe because of all the times I caught you with her. You told her you loved her and you wouldn't let anyone else have her. She said your life belonged to her, and you've never said otherwise!" Kagome yelled back, thinking of how Kikyo held the heart of the man she loved always upset her.
"Well, I'm telling you now, my life doesn't belong to her!" Inuyasha yelled back.
"Inuyasha don't lie to me, I've seen the way you look at her! How could i have ever thought you could have feelings for me, when you are so in love with Kikyo." Kagome mumbled the last part as she ran out the door.
Inuyasha stood in the dining room shocked by what Kagome had just said.
'Does Kagome have feelings for me?'
