~*~*~*~
 
The next day, they all returned to the village to inform the headmaster that the youkai had been slain. The news brought joy to the entire village and the headmaster pleaded the group to remain at a celebration dinner. They all refused, wanting to go back at Kaedes' as soon as they could, having a long journey in front of them. The headmaster understood and gave them some supplies for the road and some money as a reward for slaying the youkai.
Our group was back at Kaede's in almost two days, but they arrived safely. In all this time, Inuyasha's wounds healed and he was as good as new. Miroku and Sango on the other hand were left on Kaedes' healing hand to recover after their experience. Kagome decided that she wanted to go back in her time, and to her surprise, Inuyasha agreed, taking her back on the other side of the well.
-“How much are ya planning to stay here, wench?” Inuyasha asked as he helped Kagome exit the well.
-“I thought that I would stay a couple of days and go to school.”
-“Again with that “skool” thing of yours! Do you really have to go at that thing?!”
-“Yes! It's very important in my time to go at school! If we go at school, we can get a nice job in the future! Plus it's the law that I go. ”
-“Keh!” Inuyasha said as he pouted.
-“Don't worry, Inuyasha,” Kagome said as she grabbed one furry ear. “Until Naraku is dead the job can wait. I like being with you guys and I won't change the fact that I met you for nothing.”
They entered the house. It looked empty. Inuyasha sniffed the air.
-`Looks like no one was here in a couple of days.'
-“No one is home,” Kagome said. “Mama always leaves a message on the fridge when she goes somewhere.”
Kagome went in the kitchen and saw a message on the fridge. It said:
~ Kagome, we have gone to your aunt in Kyoto for 5 days. There is ramen in the cupboard, above the sink. If you need anything else, there's money on the living-room table. Love, Mom.”
-“Looks like my family is out of town for 5 days. This message was posted yesterday…that means that we have 4 days until they get home.”
-“So are ya going back?” Inuyasha asked.
-“No way! I said I was going to school tomorrow!”
-“Feh.”
 
~*~ Later that night ~*~
 
-“I'm stuffed!” Inuyasha said as he patted his stomach.
Kagome giggled.
-“I'm glad you liked the food.”
-“Hell yeah! What's the name of that food, Kagome?”
-“It's called oden. It's my favorite food.”
-“It's good but it doesn't pass ramen, though.”
-“I know,” Kagome said as she went to her wardrobe and quickly took some clean clothes. “I'm going to take a bath. Don't do anything stupid, okay?”
-“Hey, when did I do anything stupid?!”
Kagome rushed at the door and disappeared behind it.
-“Sorry, Inuyasha! I've let the water running!”
Inuyasha only growled.
-“Sneaky wench…” Then smirked. `But I wouldn't want her any other way…'
Kagome poured some bath supplies in the water and foam began to form as the water level began to rise. After she disrobed, she sank in the warm liquid letting her whole body relax and soak.
-`It's good to be home…'
After getting rid of all the grime that stuck on her skin, she filled the tub another time and cleansed herself before she toweled herself and dried her hair. After she was finished she went back in her room. She opened the door, only to see Inuyasha on her bed near the edge on his back with his eyes closed, his hands behind his head and one knee raised up and the other ankle resting atop it. It reminded her of the time he slept a couple of years ago when she studied. He looked so peaceful…she couldn't wake him. The fight took a lot more out of him than he thought. Kagome closed her door, turned off the light, and climbed onto the mattress. She lay on her side, facing toward him with her back against the wall. She watched as the light of the moon that shone through her window shone on his features.
-“Ya know, you could have woken me up, wench.” Inuyasha's soft voice startled her, and she glanced up into amused eyes.
-“You looked so peaceful…I didn't want to wake you.”
-“Keh, hanyous don't sleep. They are to busy being aware of danger.”
-“I know, but…You are in my room now. Why can't you rest a little?”
-“Keh!”
A long silence followed. Kagome fidgeted with her bottom lip like she had something to say but every time she opened her mouth, she closed it back, like being afraid of saying the wrong word.
-“Ya know, if you want to say something, just say it,” Inuyasha broke the silence.
Kagome softly began
-“I was wondering…Inuyasha…did you…were you afraid when you fell over the cliff?”
A long silence followed, filling the air with tension. Inuyasha closed his eyes and sighed.
-“Yes,” he answered. “I think I've never been so afraid in my whole life! I was afraid that you'll die and that's why I threw the demon over the cliff! I was afraid when I saw that the demon wanted to take you too with him! That's why I opened my hand and fell. I didn't care what happened to me if you were alive, Kagome.”
-“Inuyasha…”
-“I was afraid when the demon said that he will fool you making you think that he is me! He told me that…,”He growled. “…he'll take you!”
-“I knew that is something more than you told.”
-“What?” Inuyasha looked at Kagome.
-“I saw you hesitate for a second when you told what happened. I knew that it was more.”
-“Yeah…” Inuyasha said as he looked away, a faint blush on his cheeks, and then felt a pair of arms hugging him. “Kagome?'
-“Thank you,” she only said and Inuyasha placed his hand on hers.
-“Keh,” he softly said.
-“I love you,” Kagome said as she hugged him tighter. He only grunted in response. “Inuyasha?”
-“What?”
-“Did you really mean it? The words you said before you fell?”
Inuyasha sighed and turned to her and took her hands in his.
-“You mean, “I love you”?”
She nodded. He brought her hands to his forehead and then looked at her with his eyes shining. His hand then cupped her face, Kagome placing one of hers on it. His face got a look of sincere love and with heavy eyes and a gapped mouth he rushed in, grabbing her lips with his, taking his other hand to the back of her head. She happily returned it. The kiss deepened slightly before they parted.
-“Does this answer your question?” Inuyasha said.
-“But tell me, please…Do you mean it?” Kagome said as she cupped his face.
He clasped his lips over hers quickly and softly drew his lips to her lips, pulling her closer as he slid them up her jawbone. She was trembling and began to breathe harder. He reached her ear and every so gently whispered,
-“But I do Love you... I love you... Kagome...”
His lips caught hers again, the kiss deepening by second. He gently laid her on the bed, not breaking the kiss as their tongues battled for domination. He began trailing kisses down her jaw line, neck and throat, until he reached the edge of her pajama top. At some point he'd kicked the blankets down, both of them suddenly feeling rather hot, and settling his legs in between hers; he suckled gently on her throat while running his fingers through her hair, Kagome all the while clutching the back of his robes in an attempt to draw him in even closer. He gently nipped at her throat with his fangs, careful not to break her delicate skin. Kagome moaned and moved her hips as she felt his stiffness pressing into her, a delicious feeling forming in her core. Inuyasha was too engulfed by Kagome's smell, taste and presence to realize the position they were in until he felt her shift against him, realizing that he was hard as a rock. In a panic, he quickly raised himself slightly above her, holding himself with his hands pressed firmly on the either side of her.
-“What's wrong?” she asked between heavy breaths, mind only half registering the world around her at the moment, as she focused solely on the look of terror plastered across his face.
-“I…we…we can't do this,” he gasped.
-“Why not?”
-“Be-because…”
-“If you say that it's because you are just a hanyou, I'll say “The Word” so many times until you reach the other side of this earth!” Kagome seriously said as the situation they were in settled.
Inuyasha's expression was one of shock. Did she really want it?!
-“You…you want…?” His eyes softened as he saw her nodding.
-“I've wanted this since I realized that a couple of years ago…” Kagome said as she played with a lock of his silver hair.
-“Kagome…” Inuyasha breathed as he cupped her cheek. “You don't realize what you are saying. I'm half inu-youkai. We mate for life.”
-“So?”
-“This means that after we mate you will be mine and mine only for the rest of your life.”
-“Inuyasha, I want to be your mate. I want to be only yours.”
-“Kagome…” Inuyasha breathed, touched. “I too want to be your mate. I want to be only yours.”
Kagome still played with his hair when she asked.
-“What do we have to do then?”
-“There's a bonding ceremony we have to perform after the mating, that would mix our blood, it would increase your senses and lifespan to mine…”
-“Will it be like we'll be bonded body, mind and soul?” Kagome asked.
-“Something like that.”
-“Sounds permanent….”
-“It is. You will be mine and only mine. Absolutely nothing will break this bond.”
Kagome smiled.
-“Then that's what I want. I want to be yours and only yours,” Kagome said as she cupped his cheek and drew closer to his face, millimeters away from his lips, feeling his hot breath.
-“Kagome…” he said before he felt Kagome's warm lips on his. He eagerly kissed back. How did this girl surprise him every time? He licked and nibbled on her lower lip, begging for entrance. She moaned and Inuyasha took advantage. He slipped his tongue in her mouth, exploring her, once more. His hands ran through her hair, her hands fisted in his haori, then went up his arms, up his shoulders and his silver hair until she reached his ears and started to rub them earning a low growl of pleasure from him. Inuyasha's hand slowly went downward to the base of her blouse and slowly slipped under the soft material, caressing her flat belly. Kagome moaned in his mouth, the sensational feeling developing in the pit of her core again.
-“Inuyasha…” she sexually whispered. Her legs entwined with his, she felt his hand go further into her shirt, until it found her silky bra. He caressed her breasts, feeling her nipples slowly growing hard under the silky material. Kagome moaned once more. They wanted one another. They needed one another! He slowly began massaging her breasts making her moan in desire. He retracted his hand, making her whine in disappointment. He began to slowly unbutton her pajama top to reveal her bra-covered breasts and threw the blouse aside. He began kissing along her jaw, going to her neck, liking and nipping on the way. Kagome pushed her head to the side to give him better access. He continued his journey, planting small kisses until he arrived to her bra- covered chest. He growled.
-“Do you really have to use these things?!”
-“Of course! If I don't ware them, my breasts would look like a granny's ones!”
Inuyasha shuddered at the thought. He wanted to rip that thing in pieces but Kagome would be mad at him if he'd done that. Kagome looked at his face and giggled.
-“Let me do it. I'll show you how it's done.”
She rose on her knees and turned her back at him. Her hands went art the back of the bra and Inuyasha saw something that looked like little hooks. She easily unhooked them and the bra opened. Inuyasha felt his mouth drooling. He's going to see her like no one had seen her before! Well…he'd seen her naked a couple of times but he didn't catch the picture by detail. Kagome gave him a sexy smile as she took the bra off and held it in one hand as the other covered her breasts.
-“You want to see?” she playfully asked and threw the bra on the ground. Inuyasha watched the bra as it fell then turned to Kagome only to see her leaning on the headboard of her bed, her breasts uncovered to his hungry gaze. Like a beast, Inuyasha lunged at Kagome attacking her mouth with ferocity. Kagome returned the kiss with the same attitude. Inuyasha messaged her breasts, pinching and twisting her nipples roughly. His mouth left hers as he kissed down her jaw, down her neck, into the valley of her breasts… then slowly up her right breast. Kagome moaned and her breath grew hotter. He licked and sucked on her nipple, nipping at it. She arched her back, pushing in more of her into his mouth. The feeling in her core grew as Inuyasha played with her breasts. He after he was done with Kagome's right breast, he turned his attention to the left one. He licked it and bit it. His other hand twisted her right nipple. His mouth worked its wonders on her left nipple. The feeling grew.
-“Inuyasha…” Kagome moaned.
Inuyasha slowly made his way on her belly, going to the place where Kagome needed him the most. He grabbed her pajama pants and pulled them off, pulling her panties with them. He rose on his knees to look at the goddess in front of him. Her pale skin was flushed and covered with beads of sweat that shone in the moonlight. She truly was a goddess.
-“You're beautiful…” Inuyasha breathed.
Kagome smiled shyly. Inuyasha returned to her mouth and kissed her slowly and sensually. He then returned to her neck, down to her breasts, on her belly until he reached his destination. Here, Kagome's scent and the smell of her arousal was the strongest. Gently, at first, he rubbed around her curls, slowly going lower and lower, as she gradually opened her legs to him. When she did, the scent of her arousal hit him square in the face, as his strokes continued to waft it through the air. He really had to get a grip on himself for a moment, almost literally, as his throbbing member behind all of his clothes protested being momentarily ignored. Mindful of his claws, Inuyasha slowly worked his way within her folds, watching her reaction to different actions, as he explored her delicately. He discovered a spot in particular that she really seemed to like, as he circled his index and middle finger together around her clit, occasionally delving inside to lubricate his fingers with her juices. Kagome's face was red with the heat of her arousal that Inuyasha was so thoroughly increasing. Inuyasha stopped his ministrations and replaced his fingers with his mouth. Kagome gasped at the new sensation, her hips beginning to buck with his tongues' ministrations. Inuyasha kissed and suckled, just as he'd done with her breasts, circling her nub with his tongue. He could tell her release was close, as her breathing became erratic, and her inner muscles began contracting in time with her pulse. Her release came a few moments later making her scream his name in ecstasy while white lights erupted behind her eyelids and her liquids poured into Inuyasha's awaiting mouth as he rode her climax.
Inuyasha looked at her as she returned from nirvana. She opened her eyes slowly and looked at his smile. A smile full of love. She then realized that he was too clothed and smirked. Inuyasha looked at her but before he could say something he was turned over, Kagome cradling his hips.
-“Kagome?”
-“Do you think that I won't repay for what you did?” she grabbed his lips in a kiss. Inuyasha returned it eagerly. He then felt her hands untying his haori and under kimono to reveal his sculpted chest. She had seen this chest for a thousand times, always treating it, but she never saw it like this. It was sculpted like the chest of a model, without flaws or scars. She began massaging it, making his muscles jump and pulse under her touch. She began kissing and licking at his neck making him moan and growl in pleasure. Her hands went lower and grabbed his stiffness through his clothes. A gasp left Inuyasha's mouth. It felt so damn good. Kagome stopped her ministration to fumble with the ties of his hakama, while her mouth returned to his. When she managed to untie the knots she pulled it off and threw it along with the rest of their clothes. She wasn't surprised to see him wearing no fundoshi. She slowly wrapped her hand around his ecretion and began pumping him, also watching his features. His eyes were closed and his teeth were clenched tightly as she worked on him. A chocked gasp left him as he felt Kagome's tongue giving him a slow lick from the base to the tip before taking him whole in her mouth. His entire body stiffened, a surprised gasp of pleasure escaping his lips, and a soft rumbling growl of contentment could be heard vibrating in the back of his throat. Gripping the base of his shaft with her right hand, she pumped him vigorously, while taking as much of his length into her mouth as possible. He dug his claws in her mattress, not wanting them to grab her head instead as he felt the waves and waves of pleasure that went through his body. He could feel his release closing as he felt the knot tighten. A howl escaped him as blinding lights exploded behind his eyes as he cum. He remained motionless as the tremors of his release subsided, feeling Kagome clean him. He opened hazy eyes and saw Kagome looking at him with a smile he would die for. He jumped at her and turned her, he being on top, holding his body with his hands, his legs between hers.
-“Kagome…My love…I love you so much.”
-“I love you too, Inuyasha.” She brought her hands around his neck. “Make me yours.”
Inuyasha kissed her gently then remained with his forehead on top of hers. Kagome opened her legs wider as he positioned himself at her entrance and began to push. She closed her eyes as she felt being widened like never before. Inuyasha moved deeper into her slowly, but stopped short as he felt the proof of her virginity.
-“You ready?” he asked her and she nodded. “I love you.” And with that he slammed in her, filling her to the hilt. Her cry of pain was silenced by a kiss then he rested on top of her until he felt her relax and her body accepting him. Feeling her move against him, he slowly drew himself out only to push back in, his eyes rolling from the sheer pleasure. `Damn, this feels so fucking good!'
Kagome hissed in pain as she felt him sliding out of her only to push back in, but in the end she felt the pain fade away only to be replaced by a pleasurable friction as he began thrusting faster. She held on to him tighter, pulling him closer as he did the same, his arms pressing her against him, letting him thrust deeper in a new angle. She mewed loudly and could hear his masculine panting against her ear. Their moans became louder as their moves became more frantic. Inuyasha was pounding in her at inhuman speed, going faster and harder, bringing them closer to the edge of completion. After a few more thrusts she screamed his name in ecstasy. Her walls clenched around him, milking him and pulling him with her over the edge as well. Five seconds later he followed her, crying out her name as his essence filled her insides.
He stood on top of her as he tried to regain his breath. After his power returned to his muscles, he rose on his elbows to see the goddess beneath him. Kagome was still breathing hard as she tried to recover from her part of the journey.
-“You…okay?” Inuyasha asked between gasps.
She raised her hand to cup his cheek.
-“Never better.” She smiled lovingly.” I love you, Inuyasha.”
-“I love you too, Kagome.” He looked her in the eyes. “It's time for the ceremony. You sure about this?”
Kagome nodded.
-“Yes. ”Inuyasha smiled and kissed her lips. He pulled her up with him. She knew that in this ceremony they had to exchange blood, but she didn't know exactly how. “What do we have to do?”
-“We have to bite each other and drink each other's blood.”
-“But my teeth won't be strong enough to break your skin….” She muttered in concern.
-“Keh, Don't worry. I'll do that part for you. You just have to drink my blood.”
-“Okay.”
He smiled lovingly.
-`She really loves me if she wants this.' He looked at her. “You should go first. It wouldn't hurt as badly if my blood will be in you.”
-“Okay,” she said.
Inuyasha brought his wrist to his mouth and bit hardly, a small trickle of blood already flowing from the wound. He then offered it to Kagome. Kagome grabbed his arm without a second thought and brought it to her mouth, beginning to suckle, drinking what Inuyasha's blood had to offer. She immediately felt something. Her body began to tingle as his blood entered her system and she could feel her senses begin to grow. She could hear better and smell better, catching the scents in her room, the scents of sweat, sex and Inuyasha, his scent being a combination of masculinity, forest and dog. She drank every drop of his blood, even biting the wound once to make the blood flow. She stopped when she heard Inuyasha tell her to stop.
-“That's enough, Koi,” Inuyasha said softly. He looked as she licked the wound clean, sealing it. He could feel that in her saliva worked the healing properties of an inu-youkai. He looked at her. She was amazing. She didn't spill a single drop of blood. He looked at her lovingly. `She's my Kagome.' He grabbed her shoulders. “Turn around.”
Kagome complied and turned around, sitting on her knees with her back against his hard chest. She felt him drew her hair from her right shoulder and she shivered. He began kissing and licking along her neck and shoulder, paying more attention to the point where her neck and shoulder met. And then she felt it. His fangs piercing through her skin. It hurt like when a dog might bite you but she stood there, her body accepting the pain, Inuyasha's blood that was in her system increasing her endurance.
The pain faded as Inuyasha began to drink her blood. He first sensed Kagome tense when he bit her but she relaxed when his blood in her system did his job. He still couldn't believe it. Kagome really wanted to be his mate. Here he was, already mated and performing the blood-exchange ceremony. No other hanyou had such luck! He was the luckiest hanyou on the Earth! After realizing that he drank enough of her blood, he slowly drew his fangs from her skin and began to seal the wound.
Kagome felt when Inuyasha drew his fangs out f her.
-`That wasn't too bad…' she thought then her eyes closed in pleasure as she felt Inuyasha's wet tongue lapping across the wound. It felt sooooo good! `Oh, no! I hope that Inuyasha will finish soon or I'll jump on him!'
But Inuyasha kept licking, making her arch back and moan in pleasure. He grinned, knowing what he did to her. Her hands went up his head and grabbed his ears, rubbing them, earning a low growl.
-“Damnit, wench. If you won't stop now, I'll make sure that you'll skip that “skool” thing of yours tomorrow.”
Kagome grinned, still massaging his ears.
-“Hmmm…I'll think about that…”
-“Kagome…” Inuyasha growled sensually in a lick. His mouth still busy kissing, nipping and licking at her neck, his hands began to roam down her body, one massaging her left breast, the other one going lower. Kagome gave a laud moan as she felt Inuyasha's hand cupping her womanhood. He growled as her scent came to his nose. She was already so wet. She opened her legs wider to receive more of him. She shuddered as she felt him insert a finger and start pumping. Broken syllables of his name were gasped and her body trembled, as his pumping became faster as he inserted a second finger. Her bouncing became frantic. He stopped his ministrations and removed his hand, making Kagome whimper in need, but she gasped as she felt him slide inside her. He began thrusting in her, holding her tightly with one hand under her left breast and the other on her hip.
-“Damn…Kagome…you feel…so good!” He growled his breath hot in her ear. He slowly pushed Kagome, not breaking their connection, to stand on her arms, he bended to lie on her back, his face hidden in her shoulder, as he hugged her from behind. He could feel her release coming as her walls clenched around him and she shrieked his name, his own release following, making him empty his hot seed inside her with a loud howl.
They stood like that a couple of moments until Inuyasha pull outside her. Kagome fell on her bed gasping but with a happy smile on her face. She felt Inuyasha lying next to her, pulling the sheets upon them. He cuddled closer to her, hugging her from behind, resting his nose at the base of her neck and kissing the brand. Kagome's smile got bigger. She was his now and he was hers. After all the heartache she'd been through in three years, her love became official in the end. Tears of joy gathered behind her eyes. Inuyasha smelt them.
-“Why are you cryn', Koi?” Inuyasha asked worriedly. `She didn't regret it, did she?'
-“It's nothing, Inuyasha, it's just…I'm so happy…I never thought that we'll be this way.”
Inuyasha gave a sight of relief.
-“Me neither, Kagome…” he said as he hugged her tighter. “Thank you. Thank you for accepting me and giving me this special gift. Thank you.”
Kagome turned to him and smiled warmly.
-“That's what friends are for.”
-“Kagome…” Inuyasha whispered his voice shaky. What the hell was wrong with him!? A moment ago, his demon side was about to burst out, but now, it was like he was in his human time. He buried his face in the crook of her neck to try and calm his feelings. He felt Kagome play with a lock of his hair then the sensation of his ears being massaged followed. How did he wind up with her? Was it a coincidence or was it destiny? Whatever it was, he was grateful on the miracle that brought her in his life. ~ “Kagome is another chance given to you by Kami to live and love” ~ Miroku's words came in his mind. Kami surely loved him because he truly gave him a new chance to live and love. And this time, he wouldn't blow it up. He wouldn't loose her like he had lost Kikyou.
-“Inuyasha?”
-“Hmmm?” he muffled from his spot, his face still buried in Kagome's neck.
-“Did I tell you that I love you?” She felt him embrace her tighter and felt him tremble. She placed her head on his as she moved her hands on his back, soothing him as she felt the smell of salt thanks to her better senses.
He couldn't take it anymore! Was it because of Kagome's blood in his system that made him softer or was it because his mind was still blurred by the fog of happiness and love for the precious person in his arms that accepted him so much that she accepted to mate with him, a filthy hanyou, he didn't know. But hearing Kagome saying that she loved him for the tenth time this night made him let the last part of his walls tumble down. He felt his eyes sting and moisture escaped them. He always had hidden his tears but this time he wouldn't hide them…
He slowly rose to meet Kagome's face. She gasped as she saw his eyes. They were filled with raw emotion, the moisture in them accenting it. She reached and slowly whipped a stray tear that slide on his cheek. He gently caught her hand and kissed her wrist.
-“What did I do to deserve you, Kagome?”
She smiled.
-“Being a wonderful friend.”
Inuyasha smiled, his heart warming more. He leaned and kissed Kagome tenderly. They continued to make love slowly and lovingly, each expressing their love again and again.
 
~*~*~*~
 
Inuyasha was the first one who woke up when the light of the sun reached his eyes. He lazily opened his eyes but he woke when he sensed her scent tinted with his…and his too was tinted with hers. It was the best smell ever. He looked at the person in his arms. Kagome. The girl who choose to remain by his side forever. He woke up flat on his back, one arm under her head and wrapped around her shoulder, she lay on his chest, her head on his shoulder and her hand on his heart, her leg draped over him.
-`What a perfect way to wake up.' He smiled seeing Kagome in his arms. Slowly, he drew apart from her to get his hakama. After he slipped into them, he sat again next to her, looking at her peaceful face.
Kagome shifted a little, feeling a pair of eyes on her, and then opened her sleepy eyes at Inuyasha's radiant face.
-“Good morning,” he said.
Kagome looked at him and her eyes shone.
-“Good morning.”
Inuyasha leaned for a good-morning kiss and she happily returned it. She didn't want it to turn into a fiery one because she knew that she won't reach school if she would be caught under a passion-struck hanyou. She looked at the clock; she still had two hours until school starts. She realized that, in spite of last night, she felt quite refreshed and relaxed even if she had woken up this early. She would have enough time to take a shower to get rid of the specific smell that clung to her skin. But still…
-`5 more minutes won't hurt…'
They stood embraced for a few moments until Inuyasha chuckled.
-“Didn't you say that you have “skool” today?”
-“Mmm-hmmm…” Kagome responded.
-“So? What are ya waiting for?”
-“You'll let me go to school?”
-“Didn't ya want to go? Wasn't that the cause that you came back here?”
-“Well…”Grinning, Kagome leapt out of her bed, pulling the covers off her bed and wrapping her body with them, leaving Inuyasha on her bed. “If you say so…” she grinned at him then she took some clothes from her wardrobe and left through the door. Inuyasha sighed.
-`Me and my big, fat mouth!'
 
The days in the Modern Era passed quickly for Kagome and Inuyasha, but both of them had the things they wanted: Kagome went to school to catch up with her classes and Inuyasha got himself a few more nights with his first mate before Kagome's family came back. Telling Kagome's mother and grandfather that they were mates, was the hardest thing Inuyasha made in his entire life, but, with Kagome beside him, he passed the test with brio and was welcomed in the family with open arms.
 
~*~*~*~
 
Inuyasha jumped outside the well in the Feudal Era, with Kagome's yellow bag on his shoulder. He reached for Kagome and pulled her out from the well as well.
-“I wonder how the others will say?” Kagome asked.
-“I'll bet that the monk will do something perverted, Sango will jump on you and the runt…” He had a sparkle in his eyes. “He will begin wailing because now he's not going to sleep in your sleeping-bag anymore because you and I will have other activities reserved for the night…”
Kagome jabbed him in the side.
-“Hentai!” she said joking.
-“Only for you…” Inuyasha seductively whispered in her ear.
They reached the village and entered Kaede's hut.
-“Hello everyone!” Kagome greeted.
-“Greetings Kagome-sama!” Miroku greeted.
-“Welcome back, Kagome-chan!” Sango greeted.
-“Kagome!” Shippou happily yelled and jumped in her arms. “I thought that you won't come back! What did you…?” He stopped. He got closer to Kagome and sniffed her. Kagome slightly tensed. Shippou drew back and his eyes went wide. “Kagome, why do you smell like Inuyasha?”
-“Keh! She always smells like me, runt! I save her sorry ass for a thousand times a day!”
Kagome gave him a glance that meant that “the word” is on the tip of her tongue.
-“I know that!” Shippou said. “But now, your smell is stronger on hers! It's like your smell and hers are one!”
-“Huh?” the taijya and the monk became interested.
Shippou jumped off Kagome and landed on Inuyasha's shoulder. He gave a sniff.
-“And Inuyasha smells like Kagome too!”
Inuyasha grabbed Shippou and yanked him off but Shippou grabbed on his hand tightly. Inuyasha growled.
-“Get offa me!”
Shippou saw a wound on his wrist.
-“What's with this wound on your wrist, Inuyasha? Did something bite you?” Shippou saw closer. It was a human bite. “What human could bite you so hard?!” He sniffed it. “Hey, Kagome's smell is on this too!” Inuyasha threw him in Miroku's arms. Shippou jumped on his feet. “Why did you do that for?!”
-“Keh!” Inuyasha crossed his arms at his chest.
Kagome fidgeted for a few moments. Why was it so hard to tell them now? They will find out soon enough with Shippou's blabbering, a few moments ago.
-“Ye did the blood-exchanging ceremony, haven't ye?”
Kaede's wise voice was heard. They all turned to the old lady.
-“Kaede-Sama?” Kagome asked a little scared of what she might think. She was a miko of course.
Kaede looked at her and smiled.
-“Ye two did the best thing. I'm sure ye are very happy.” Kagome felt her eyes water. Kaede accepted their bonding.
-“Kagome-chan, is it true?” Sango asked. Kagome turned to her friend and nodded, then showed her the brand on her neck. She knew that Sango was a taijya and knew about youkai customs and probably knew about the blood-exchanging ceremony too, all with her “benefits”. Kagome first thought about what Inuyasha told her in the night of the bonding, that she will live the same lifespan as him; that meant that she will outlive her friends and her family and see them grow old and die. She was sad at first but the thought that she will live beside the man that she loved, made the bad thoughts disappear. She looked at her friend and tried to find sadness in her smell and aura. She did find some but it vanished in front of the warmth of her “sister's” happiness. “Kagome-chan!” Sango went to her and hugged her tightly. Kagome returned the embrace. “I'm so happy for you, Kagome-chan! I knew that all will end up well and you will make the right choice.”
-“So…you aren't sad?” Kagome asked.
-“Why should I be?” Sango looked at her friend. “I knew that it will come to this sometime.”
-“Thank you, Sango-chan!” Kagome said as she whipped some stray tears that left her eyes.
Miroku came beside Inuyasha. Inuyasha was measuring him by eye.
-`Great! Just fucking great! Now the bozu has to come and do something stupid! I swear that if he asks anything of what I and Kagome did, I'll rip him to pieces!!!'
-“Well, my friend, I can see you did the youkai bonding…”
-“Yeah, what of it!?”
Instead of a lecherous remark, Miroku placed his hand on Inuyasha's shoulder.
-“I'm happy you finally realized where you belong…”
Inuyasha was awe-struck by Miroku's behavior. He was expecting a pervert remark about the mating or something but he did the opposite. Maybe he shouldn't suspect him so suddenly. He looked at Kagome and smiled as she smiled to him.
-“Yeah…”
-“So…”Miroku continued an Inuyasha sudden realized that he'd been wrong. “That's why you two were late! You two probably had a reeeeeeeeeealy good ti-!”
*BONK*
-`I knew I shouldn't trust him! He's the same perverted bozu!' Inuyasha growled inwardly.

The stars began to appear on the Feudal Japan's sky as the sun disappeared behind the horizon announcing the final of a day. Inuyasha and Kagome were lying on a hill looking at the stars, one of Inuyasha's arms served as his pillow behind his head, while the other acted as Kagome's.
-“It's so beautiful!” Kagome said as she looked at the star-filled sky. “In my time, the stars can't be seen like here.”
-“It's because your time is too bright.”
-“I know. That's why I like to see them here.” A small shiny line crossed the sky, leaving a trail of sparkle behind. “A falling star! Say a wish!” She brought her hands together and closed her eyes. After a few moments she opened them again and smiled brightly.
-“What did you wish?” Inuyasha asked.
Kagome giggled.
-“It's a secret…”
-“Keh,” Inuyasha said and closed his eyes.
-“What did you wish, Inuyasha?” Kagome asked him as she stood on his chest, looking at his face.
Inuyasha opened his eyes and looked at Kagome. The wind blew softly and her hair moved in the breeze, her eyes shone slightly in the light of the stars; her scent enveloped him making him draw her closer. He smiled. Kagome touched his face and he leaned to her touch.
-“I love you, Inuyasha,” she softly said.
He didn't need any wish…
-“I love you too, Kagome,” he whispered and took her in a tender kiss.
 
…because his wish was already granted.
