InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ True Love Lives On ❯ Chapter 8 ( Chapter 8 )

Chapter 8

When Kagome woke up the next morning she found a sleeping Hanyou next to her in her bed.

`Wow, this is weird, but kind of nice' she admitted to herself.

Kagome got up very carefully and went downstairs to make her and her new boyfriend some breakfast.

"Is that what he is now? My `boyfriend?"

"What's a "boyfriend?" a very groggy Inu-Yasha asked.

"It's umm….it's kind of a….Inu-Yasha, do you really love me?"

"Yes stupid! Why would I tell you that I did if I didn't?"

"Well, I just thought with you being human…that maybe….maybe…"

"I didn't mean it?"

"Well, yeah. You say a lot of things when you're human that you don't mean."

"Well, now I'm a demon again and I'll tell you again to reassure you…I love you Kagome."

Kagome smiled up happily at her demon boyfriend, `wow, a demon boyfriend…what will all my friends at school think…what will mama think?!?!?' she wondered to herself as she made Inu-Yasha some ramen and herself a bowl of cereal.

"Ya know Kagome, we're going to have to be getting back soon or the others will start to worry. They should be back sometime today and we don't want them to come back to see that we've gone missing."

"We'll leave right after we eat breakfast."

They ate their meals in silence, but they were both thinking the same thing, `what do we tell the others?' Kaede knew that they would eventually get together, and Sango and Miroku kind of knew what was going on even before Inu-Yasha and Kagome did…but that still didn't determine how they would respond to the full reality of it.

After Kagome had finished washing the dishes she left a note for her mother telling her that she had come home while they were at the beach and that she would be home in about 7 days to explain something to her. After everything was taken care of and packed up she and Inu-Yasha headed to the well to go back.

"Kagome?"

"Yes Inu-Yasha."

"You do know now that we're together there will be a lot more people after you, right?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well once Naraku knows that we are together, which he will because now Kikyo knows, he'll be after you because he knows that will hurt me."

Kagome grew silent thinking to herself. `Maybe he doesn't want to be with me. What if he's still thinking I'm Kikyo?'

Inu-Yasha must have felt her un-easiness and grabbed her hand.

"Well, I guess that just means I'll have to watch over a little more closely now."

Right as they got the well Inu-Yasha squeezed Kagome's hand.

"Ready to go tell everyone?"

"Yep, let's go."

And with that they jumped into the well to see what the others had to say about their new found feelings for each other.
