Chapter 1

"Kagome, I said I was sorry!" Inuyasha spat dirt out of his mouth from his most recent 'sit' command

"Inuyasha you are such a-" Kagome started, "Ugh! What, am I no longer needed because all the Shikon Jewel shards have been found? Am I still just the little shard detector, and because we've killed Naraku and got the rest of the shards I'm no longer needed? I'm going HOME!" She yelled.

"Kagome, no, wait!" Inuyasha called after Kagome's retreating figure.

"Inuyasha! Sit, boy!" Kagome screeched angrily as Inuyasha started to go after her, resulting in face-planting in the soft soil in her wake.

Ugh! The nerve of him! Kagome fumed as she walked toward the bone-eaters well. I can't believe how insensitive he can be! She sighed. Whatever, I was leaving again soon anyway, I've still got entrance exams coming up...

She stopped at the lip of the well and yawned, Just the thought of going home to a warm bed makes me tired... I guess I'm off then! She jumped into the well, her yellow book-bag clinging to her school uniform.

Blue light surrounded her as she traveled through time 500 hundred years into the future, to her family and friend's time. Within seconds she felt her feet touch down softly on smooth ground, all around her brick leading up to the top of the well, a ladder suspended from the wood topping the it. She grabbed the ladder and started to hoist herself and her bag up the ladder.

"Mom, Grandpa, Souta, I'm home!" She called as she dropped to the ground outside of the well, landing on the flooring of the old shrine house surrounding the it. She raced outside and sighed happily as she saw her home, the Higurashi Shrine.

She walked quickly toward her home, taking off her shoes by the door, and went inside. "Mom, Grandpa, Souta...!" She stopped calling as she noticed a note on the fridge. She opened it up and saw a note. 'Went to a resort after winning three tickets, sorry! We'll be back Monday! -Mom' Kagome sighed, suppressing a growl.

"Whatever! I'll just get to work studying!" She yelled angrily at the note. 'Its Saturday, so they'll be back in two days.' She huffed and started for the stairs.

"Mrroww!" Buyo the cat meowed expectantly. Kagome leaned down and caressed the cat's ears, sighing. Buyo purred and rubbed against her leg before padding away and plopping down on the couch.

Kagome giggled to herself as she walked upstairs to her room and tripped over her feet, landing on her bottom. "Ouch..." She said to herself, and dusted her skirt off. Her raven-black hair waved as she got up and continued up the stairs.

She opened the door to her room and the smell of incense wafted out, making Kagome cough. 'Grandpa...! I'm going to get him for this!' She thought angrily as she stomped into her room. She marched to the window and opened it, letting the cool air drift in from outside.

She sat at her desk and started to roll the completed Shikon Jewel between her fingers. She began replaying memories in her head, of getting each shard. By the time she got to her first encounter with Naraku she started to drift off, still sitting in the chair.

Her dream started with her waking in a green field, trees surrounding her. Inuyasha lay beside her in a contented sleep. She stared at his sleeping figure, breathless. He began to wake, his amber eyes meeting her awestruck ones.

"Hey, Kagome..." He yawned and stretched. "What's up?" He asked in a concerned voice, seeing her avert her gaze to a leaf drifting toward the ground, sadness playing on her face.

"I...Inuyasha?" She started tentatively, "I...I wanted to say I'm sorry for being so angry all the time..." She breathed.

"Kagome... You know I'd never be angry with you... I only act like I am so the others don't think I'm weak." He stood up, bringing Kagome with him. "Kagome... I love you..."

"I...I love you too, Inuyasha..." She sighed happily and stared into his eyes, her head leaning forward until their lips met. The kiss was quick and sweet, making Kagome sigh, wanting more. "I love you..."

Kagome's eyes opened slowly, her head lolling off the pillow, her blanket lying over her. 'Ah, I love my pillow and blanket...' She looked down over her cover. 'Wait...'

"Pillow and blanket?" She gasped and quickly got out of bed, tangling her feet in her blanket she started to fall, but instead of hitting the floor face first it met warmth, only inches from where she started falling. Arms wrapped around her and pulled her closer.

She noticed a red robe and realized who it was, and accepted the embrace. "I...Inuyasha? What are you doing here?" She asked when she was finally released from the hanyou's grasp.

Inuyasha looked at her, his golden eyes swimming with emotion. "K...Kagome..." He sputtered, "I...I love you too..."
