It was the day after Kagome had stepped into the well for the last time to be with Inuyasha forever. Kagome sat inside the small wooden house that Inuyasha and her lived in. It was next door to Miroku and Sango's house. I miss my family, but I made the right choice. How could I live without Inuyasha or my friends? Kagome thought to herself. I love Inuyasha, this is something neither of us can deny.
Still the memories of the perilous battles with Naraku remained in her mind. I still can't believe it's all over now. "Huh?" Kagome's thoughts were interrupted by Inuyasha entering the house. "Oh hey, Inuyasha" Kagome said with a smile. Inuyasha looked at her for a moment. Not like he usually did with those fierce looking eyes, but with affection and softness. "Kagome." Inuyasha said. "I always wanted to live a happy life with Kikyo. To settle down in a place like this. That was what both of us wanted. But Naraku tricked both of us… and our dreams never came true. She died…" Inuyasha spoke these words with sorrow. "But Kagome, I found you. From the first time I lay my eyes upon you I knew I felt attracted to you." Both of them felt awkward and blushed.
"Inuyasha… We.. we don't need to feel awkward towards eachother's feelings anymore. We're married." Kagome said. Inuyasha proceeded to the mattress Kagome was sitting on and sat down next to her. He suddenly lifted his arms and embraced Kagome. Inuyasha placed his head on Kagome's shoulder. Kagome didn't want to hide her feelings anymore. She held Inuyasha and buried her head into his chest. Suddenly she felt her head lifting up to Inuyasha's face and touching her lips to his. It was a kiss.
The only other time Inuyasha and Kagome had kissed was when she needed to stop him from becoming a full demon. That wasn't exactly a romantic kiss like this one. They pressed their lips together for almost a minute. Finally they stopped and gasped for air. Inuyasha collapsed down onto the mattress so he was lying down. Kagome was still sitting up. She stroked his hair slowly. "I love you Kagome." Inuyasha said. Kagome looked down at him affectionately. "I love you too."
It was already late at night. Kagome yawned. "It's time for bed, sleepyhead." Inuyasha said. There were two mattresses; one for Kagome and one for Inuyasha. Kagome noticed Inuyasha looking at the two mattresses. "I know what you're thinking. Let's use one mattress tonight." Kagome said. Inuyasha seemed delighted at the thought and he quickly took off his red cloak so that he was wearing his white under-shirt. Kagome went behind a screen to change into her pajamas. "No peeking!" Kagome yelled. But Inuyasha looked anyways, trying to be as discreet as possible. Finally Kagome was ready for bed. She hopped in next to Inuyasha and pulled up the covers. She blew out the lamp and all went dark.
Kagome rapped her arms around Inuyasha's muscular body. Inuyasha embraced Kagome's delicate waist. They held each other and kissed several times throughout the night. I'm lucky to be the one to have Kagome. Inuyasha thought. The two lovers slept until morning.
