A First Kiss

"I'm exhausted!" Miroku said setting himself on a large boulder.

Sango rested down onto a log and dropped her Hiraikotsu. "Me too. Let's rest here for the night. What do you think Kagome?"

Kagome had been daydreaming while watching the sun set. Shippo jumped onto her shoulder.

"Something wrong Kagome?"

Kagome was shocked when she heard Shippo's voice.

"Huh? Did someone say something?"

Sango looked at her friend with narrowed eyes. "Yes. I did. Is something the matter Kagome? You seem kind of distracted."

"Oh, no!" she said quickly. "I'm fine. Just thinking. Maybe we should rest here tonight."

"Uh, sure." Sango said still confused.

They lit a fire, caught some fish, and settled in for the night. While everyone fell asleep, Kagome got up silently and walked through a nearby path leading up to a giant tree that shielded most of the light from the moon. She sat down and thought back to the last time she had been home with her friends.

Flashback

"He really kissed you!" Yuka asked.

"It was just a quick peck." Eri replied, blushing profusely.

"Oh come on! It was not 'just a peck'. It was your first kiss, right?" Ayumi asked.

"Well, yeah it was." Eri said finally looking her friends in the eyes.

The two girls squealed in excitement, except for Kagome who felt like she had been missing out on life.

Yuka turned to Kagome. "So what about you Kagome?"

Eri also turned to her. "Yeah, has that mystery boyfriend of yours finally kissed you or what?"

Kagome's eyes widened. She hadn't expected them to ask her THAT.

"Well…no…not exactly." Kagome answered looking at her feet.

"NO!" Her three friends yelled in unison.

End flashback

Kagome gave a sigh as she remembered the faces her friends had given her. After that she felt so miserable. She's been missing out on everything that she should have been able to experience. All because of some stupid jewel that she just happened to brake.

"Kagome?"

Kagome looked over to her side to find Inuyasha standing a few feet from her, looking at her curiously. She smiled and patted the ground beside her, indicating him to sit down. He took the hint and squatted beside her. They were silent for what seemed like forever until Kagome got an idea. She turned to look at him right in the eye, trying her hardest to keep her expression looking serious. Inuyasha noticed and felt slightly uncomfortable under her watch.

"Inuyasha, you've kissed Kikyo before right?"

His eyes went as wide as possible, but before he could answer, she interrupted him.

"What am I saying, of course you have. But…because of everything going on here…I've had to give up a lot, including the chance to hang out with my friends, going to the movies, and even…having a first kiss."

She looked at him shyly and he gulped.

"I wanted to ask you something, and if you say no I'll completely understand." She took a deep breath, hoping that may calm her nerves. "Inuyasha, would you kiss me? Just once. It doesn't even have to be a real kiss just a quick one."

Inuyasha nearly fell on the ground trying to sit straight. He definitely hadn't expected this. But before he lost control of the situation, if he ever had it, he cleared his throat, and looked away from her.

"Feh, idiot, like I'd ever want to kiss you."

His comment hurt her but she wasn't giving up that easily.

"Inuyasha, I know I'm asking a lot, but can't you do me this one favor. If it wasn't for the sacred jewel I wouldn't have had to give up everything and would have been able to lead a normal life. The least you could do for me is this one thing."

Tears started to come out of her eyes and he realized just how important this was to her. He sighed and turned back to face her.

"Fine, if it's that important to you I'll do it."

Kagome clapped her hands together and a big smile lit up her features. She positioned herself in front of him and sat still. Inuyasha sat there also, waiting for her to move.

"Well?" Inuyasha asked expectedly.

"Oh!" she exclaimed. "Should I make the first move?"

Inuyasha glared at her.

"Ok fine." She said sounding exasperated.

She wasted no time in leaning forward and pressing her lips lightly on his. He was shocked at her sudden movement, but quickly eased into it. She was about to pull away when his hands came around her back pulling her closer to him. He didn't know what he was doling exactly but she felt so nice, he didn't want to let her go yet. She didn't pull away from him or make any sudden movements. She didn't want to scare him. She leaned forward and pressed her lips more firmly against his as he did the same. She pulled away finally and they were both left gasping for air. Kagome cleared her throat and stood up straightening her skirt.

"Well…thanks Inuyasha. See you back at camp."

She waved at him and left him sitting there as her watched her walk away.

"Anytime."
