Calm evening tonight. Ryo and Kagome enjoyed the view in front of his house. His hand curled over hers. She nuzzled his neck.
“At last,” she said.
“Yeah,” he agreed.
“What took us so long?”
Ryo shrugged. “Life, I guess.”
She rested her head on his shoulder. “It will still try to stop us.”
“I hate that.”
“Yeah. It happens.”
“So, what do we do?”
“Fight it.”
“How?”
“With everything we’ve got.”
Ryo smiled. “I love when you talk like that.”
Kagome giggled. “I’ve grown stronger since then.”
“I would love to see that.”
Kagome giggled. “I’ve grown stronger since then.”
“I would love to see that.”
“Maybe you will.”
He leaned in and kissed her on the lips. Kagome’s heart sped up. Ryo gently pulled away. His girl blinked. He started to frown.
“Was that bad?” he asked. “Too early? Maybe…” Kagome shook her head.
“No, no. It was fine,” she said. “It’s just…”
“Just what?” Ryo asked. Kagome lowered her head, blushing.
“That was the first time you kissed me,” she said.
“How was it?”
“Can you kiss me again?”
Roy’s cheeks turned a soft glowing red. “N-N-Now?”
“Whenever you want,” she said. Ryo’s face felt hot.
“Sure!” he said. His girl smiled and giggled.
“You’re so cute,” she said. Ryo smiled back. Then, a thought crossed his mind.
“What about our parents?” he asked. Kagome looked on at him.
“What about them?” she asked. Her boy shrugged at her.
“What if they… you know…” he said.
“What?” she asked.
“Get married again.”
Kagome sat up a bit. “Isn’t that what we want?”
“Not yet. I want us to get married first.”
“Married?!? At least let us go out on a date first! Geez!”
“Fair enough.”
“Then, there’s Setsuna to deal with.”
“Aw, yes. Her.”
“Does she have a crush on you?”
“I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“I can’t read her mind.”
“But she’s your friend.”
“We’re not close.”
“Well why not?”
Ryo shrugged. “Different circles, I guess.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah.”
“Well… We’ll have to work on her, I guess.”
“But how?”
Kagome shook her head as she shrugged. “We’ll think of something.”
Ryo didn’t feel easy with her statement as a question. “What do you mean?” Kagome didn’t answer him. She laid her head to his chest.
“Don’t leave me,” she said. Ryo lightly held her in his arms.
“I won’t,” he whispered.
“I love you,” she said. Ryo closed his eyes and took her in.
“I love you too,” he whispered. She brought her eyes up to his face.
“Kiss me again,” she whispered. Her lips moved in and gently touched his. If only they could freeze time for this moment.
