Ch.2 *NEXT WEEK~KAGOME WAS ALREADY THERE~NIGHT* Everyone was sitting around a fire. They were all just talking. The guys were on one side and the girls on another. (Shippou was sleeping) "It's a miracle that Miroku hasn't done anything to anyone today. Usually when we have nothing to do, he 'starts', you know?" Sango said "Yea…that's true!" Kagome agreed Sango got up and told Kagome to follow her. She took her far away from the guys and asked, "What's up with you and Inuyasha? Have you told him yet?" Sango "Um…no…not yet…" "WHAT? Still??…What are you waiting for? Are you even planning to tell him?" "I am but…I don't know…how…to break it to him…" "If you plan it you'll prolly end-up messing up, you should just tell him. Just let it all out" "What if he starts freaking out or something??? You know how Inuyasha gets when people confront him about certain things…" "True, but I doubt that he'll freak out over this" "How are you so sure?" "Trust me, I have a gut feeling" "Uh…" "Just tell him" "Ok…I'll tell him now" "Good" "Oh! Before I tell him, I just wanna tell you that maybe you should tell Miroku about your little situation too" "Uh!…I-I will…don't worry…I will. Now go!" "Ok!…wish me luck!" "LUCK!" Kagome walked up to Inuyasha and whispered, "We need to talk", in his ear. He looked at her confused and followed her. She took him to the deep end of the forest and stopped. She just stood there, starring at him. "What?…why are you starring at me?" he asked VERY lost "Um…we need to talk…" "You said that already. What do we need to talk about?" "U-us…" she said blushing "Us? What d'ya mean?" "Uh…um…I um…*ahem*…um…" "WHAT???…YOU WHAT??" "UM…A-AISHITERU INUYASHA! *GASP*" she said quickly covering her mouth "What did you just say?????" He said shocked "Um…" she said looking down and closing her eyes 'C'mon Kagome! You can do this! Just tell him!!!' she thought to herself Kagome turned around and started to cry. 'Kagome! You're such an idiot!! What's wrong with you today!!!? ERRR!' she thought While she was thinking and crying, she felt someone grab her shoulders. "Huh?" she said "Kagome…" Inuyasha said softly "…uh…" "Look at me..." he said She turned around. She was still looking down. He looked at her and told her to look at him again. She looked up and saw his amber eyes starring strait into hers. For the first time, she noticed how full of life and love and how profoundly beautiful his eyes really were. "Kagome…what you said. Is it true?…" he said starring deep into her eyes "*sniff* Yes, Inuyasha. It is…I-I do...I love you…" she said with tears Inuyasha softly smiled and hugged her tightly laying his head on her shoulder. Suddenly she felt a warm feeling come over her and for some reason she felt safe. "...Inuyasha…" she said closing her eyes and hugging him back "Kagome…I've been waiting so long to here that from you. How long were you planning to keep this from me?…" "Um…I was sort of…waiting…" "Waiting for what?" he said lifting his head and looking at her "For…um…I…I…wanted to make sure that you felt the same before I told you. But I couldn't wait any longer…I had to tell you…whether you loved me…or not" she said with tears "How could you think that!!" "Huh?" "How could you think that I don't love you???" "You…you DO????" she said starting to smile He got closer to her face and said… "Why else would I constantly protect you, constantly risk my life for you…heh…constantly act 'cocky' around you?…" he said with a smirk "Heh…*sniff*...is that the excuse you're gonna use every time you act a little cocky around me now?" she said laughing "Heh, heh, heh" he laughed He held her by the hand and said… "Let's get out of the woods and back to some more 'familiar' surroundings" "Mhm. Sounds good" she said smiling Then they started walking back to where the others were. Before they got there, Inuyasha stopped and said… "Kagome, before we go back over there…you want a kiss?" he said holding out his hand "Oh…ok" she said reaching for his hand When her hand got near his hand, he quickly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her to him. He wrapped his arms around her and planted a big kiss on her lips. Her eyes were wide and her body was in shock. For a while she couldn't move, but as soon as she felt his kiss get deeper, warmer, and more 'passionate', she let loose. She closed her eyes, wrapped her arms around him, and with just a hint of aggressiveness she kissed him back. That must have clicked on a switch because when she did that, he pulled her closer and hugged her tighter. They were standing there, in a LONG passionate kiss. Finally, they parted, out of breathe. "WOAH!" Kagome said taking a deep breath "So…how was the 'kiss'??" "That was the best tasting 'kiss' I've ever had!" she said winking on the word 'kiss' "I knew you'd like it" "YEP!…but…you really shouldn't give me a lot of those 'kisses'…I might get addicted" she said smirking "What if I want you to?" "Well, you got what you asked for…" "Really?" "Yup. Cause I'm already addicted" she said smiling He smiled and kissed her again and then they went back to the others. When they got there, the first thing they saw was Miroku and Sango makin' out. Who would have thought that, that would happen…O.o! Inuyasha and Kagome just looked at each other. "Miroku and Sango??? Am I seeing things??" Inuyasha said in shock "Nope. That right there…that's real" "Yea…real shocking! I didn't know she liked him!" "I did. And she knew I liked you…^_^" "You mean to tell me, you told her before you told me!!!!???" Inuyasha screamed "SHHH!!!!! You'll interrupt them!" Kagome said covering his mouth "…'…" "C'mon. Lets go back to the hut. I'm tired anyway" "Ok" So they walked into the hut trying not to disturb the other couple. *IN THE HUT* "So…now that we got all of that settled. What does it all make US??" Kagome asked leaning her head on Inuyasha's chest and hugging him (It looks really cute in my head! ^_~) "I dunno. You tell me" he said putting his arms around her (Awww!!! You really hafto see this!!! ^_^*) Kagome looked up at Inuyasha's face and smiled a really kawaii/chibi smile. (Hehe! *^_^*) He put his hand on her cheeck and looked into her eyes. She also looked into his eyes. "You know what I've always wanted to tell you?" Inuyasha said "What?" "You…are so beautiful" "Wow. Inuyasha…I'm impressed…" "…" "… You're showing your soft side. Although…I hafto admit…I like it ^_^*" "I'm only doin' this for you. You prolly won't see me actin' like this around anyone else but you" "Yea…Right…so your saying you're only gonna act like this when we're alone??" "Well…no…what I MEANT to say was that I'll only act like this FOR you…not for other people. Get me?" "Yea I get you. Only for me?" "Yep. You" "Oh…for some reason…that hit me…right here" she said putting her hand on her chest "-_-'…is that sarcasm I sense???" "Only for you. Hehehe!" "Ha, ha…funny…real funny…now you're gonna be using this against me aren't you?" "No…" she said smiling "Yea…uh-huh…sure…" "Inuyasha!…" "What??" "KISS ME!!!" "OK!" he said smiling He leaned in and kissed her. While they were kissing…Shippou, (thought I forgot about him right!), woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, the VERY FIRST thing he saw was Inuyasha and Kagome kissing. "OMG!!!!!" Shippou screamed Inuyasha and Kagome were startled by the small fox-demon and stopped kissing. "*GASP*" Kagome 'said' in shock Miroku and Sango came running into the hut. "What's going on in here???" Miroku asked "Shippou are you ok???" Sango followed "We're fine" Inuyasha said "Inuyasha! Kagome!…when did you guys come back?" Miroku said shocked to see them "A while ago. Had fun out there?" Inuyasha said smirking "Inuyasha!!" Kagome said nudging him with her elbow "Uh…you…you saw us???" Sango said blushing "Um…yea" Kagome said a little embarrassed "HELLO!! I'M STILL HERE!!!" Shippou screamed "Oh! Sorry Shippou…", Kagome said picking him up and placing him on her lap, "…you ok?" "I'm kinda in shock! I never thought I would see that!" "You saw us too??" Miroku said "NO! I SAW THEM!" Shippou said pointing to Kagome and Inuyasha "Kagome and Inuyasha?? You two were doing the same thing as us???" Sango said "Uh…kinda…yea…"Kagome said blushing "I don't understand why this is so embarrassing for you people!!!" Inuyasha said frustrated and with a twitching eye "Inuyasha?…" Miroku, Sango, Shippou, and Kagome said looking at him "Jeez! Am I the ONLY person who is actually VERY happy and NOT embarrassed! Hello people!…sheesh…" They all looked at him. "What?…why are you all looking at me like that??" "Inuyasha…I hate to say this, but…you make a lot of sense…we shouldn't be embarrassed. Love is a natural thing…and doing all this comes naturally. Right?" Miroku said "Miroku…you're right" Sango said "I am?…I-I AM!" Sango hugged Miroku and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Miroku had a smile from ear to ear. "See Inuyasha…isn't that sweet??" Kagome said smiling Inuyasha hugged Kagome and their faces were cheek to cheek. Kagome blushed and smiled 'WOW! Inuyasha's my BOYFRIEND! I love saying that!' Kagome thought All of a sudden Miroku, Sango, Inuyasha, and Kagome all heard someone crying. Then they realized it was Shippou. They all looked Shippou and noticed he looked sad. "Oh my! Shippou! What's the matter??" Kagome said "IT'S NOT FAIR!!! I'M ALL ALONE!!! WWWWWWAAAAAA!!!!!!" "Shippou! You're not alone! You have us! We all love you!" "Hey!" Inuyasha said Kagome elbowed Inuyasha in the arm and told him to shut up. "I know I have you but *sniff* I want someone to 'love', love me!! Like all you people!" "Shippou! You're still real young. Someone is bound to come along that you love and loves you back. You just hafto let time handle things. If you expect it…it'll take longer to come…just wait…you'll see. You're gonna find some one! You can count on it!" Kagome said smiling (I know that was kinda corny, but I had to!!! ^_^) "*sniff, sniff* Kagome, I wish you were more like me and my age. I would definitely go out with you!" "Hey! She's mine!" Inuyasha said "Inuyasha! Leave him alone!" Miroku said throwing a small rock at Inuyasha's head "Grrrr…..monk…." Inuyasha growled "ANYWAY…can we PLEASE lighten up the mood!" Sango said "Yes! Please!" Shippou said So they all prepared something to eat. They enjoyed a nice big dinner and talked for a while. After they finished talking they all went to go to sleep. Miroku and Sango slept next to each other. And so did Inuyasha and Kagome. ^_^* Everyone was sleeping except Inuyasha and Kagome… "Inuyasha" "Hm…" "…I love you…you make me so happy" "Heh…you make me even happier. You know…you made me do a complete turn around. When I first met you I didn't like you at all…and I'm being honest here!…don't get me wrong or anything, but it's the truth. Anyway…I didn't like you, but later on…I started getting to know you as a person. I thought to myself, 'this girl is always concerned about me even thought sometimes I treat her like crap'. That's when I started to really like you. Then slowly, over time, my feelings became stronger. If anything were to happen to you…I had to do something about it or else I wouldn't be able to live with myself! Then…those couple of moments when I got to really look into your soul through your eyes…I slowly fell in love with your soul, your beauty…You. And now, here I am, with you in my arms, looking beyond beautiful, inside and out" "Inu…*sniff*…yasha! *sniff*…I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!" she said crying tears of joy and hugging him tightly "And I … I love you too…Kagome…" he said hugging her back "Inuyasha!! … all those times when I was alone with you…I wanted to tell you…I really did! But I was too afraid! I wanted to tell you how much I needed you! I much I want to spend the rest of my life by your side! How much I love you! There're some nights that I spend alone at home just wishing that I could see you just so I can get a glimpse into your eyes!!! I love you so much Inuyasha!!!!" Inuyasha just hugged her. They stood hugging for a while when finally he looked at her and said "I will always love you" "*sniff* and I will always love YOU…" Then they shared an intimate kiss. **We all know…that they will cherish** **this moment…for the rest…of their lives** *The End*
