"Go."
Kagome looked into his golden eyes, and hers filled with hesitation.
"I will be on the other side, waiting."
Kagome nodded and with a wavering smile, jumped.
"Kagome?"
Kagome turned around to find herself held in a tight embrace. Pulling away she raised her hand caressed his cheek.
"Shippo," Kagome's eyes softened, "I've missed you"
"How…..how..?"
"I'll be turning 62 in a month."
"Oh… Kagome I'm so sorry, I thought I still had another 50 years. I must have mis-miscalculated; I should have waited there…"
Although he was much too tall now, she let him rest his head on her shoulder and cry like always.
"May I see your family? You must have grandkids by now, I'll be an uncle." Shippo joked, choking his tears.
"Oh… I never married."
"What?"
"I'm waiting for Sesshoumaru."
Shippo stared at the head of grey, stunned.
"He's dead, about 2 hundred years ago." He whispered, almost fearing her reaction.
She let out a small sigh, "I figured that much, but I always held out a little hope you know?"
"Kagome."
"You're using my name an awful lot today Shippo." Kagome smiled tenderly, before reaching out her hand.
"Take me to see your family."
About a month before she turned 75, Shippo finally worked up the courage to ask her.
"Why didn't you ever find someone?"
"I was waiting Sesshoumaru."
"What about after you found me?"
"I was too busy taking care of my grandkids. Yashi, in particular, is quite a handful, he takes after you."
"Kagome, please."
She sighed, "Because he's waiting for me."
"What?"
"He told me that he'll be waiting on the other side, and when I didn't find him on the other side of the well, I knew where he's waiting."
Shippo bit his lip in frustration.
"Don't be angry Shippo, he waited 2 hundred something years, it's only fair to put in my share."
"Don't cry," He whispered as he comforted his grieving wife, "Kagome is happy."
"What?" His wife said in disbelief, "She just died!"
"He was waiting for her on the other side, they can finally start their 'happily ever after'."
AN: I found this on my computer and I have no idea when I wrote this. It's not amazing quality but I felt that since I had put in the time I might as well post it. This would most likely be my last Inuyasha fanfic, I seem to have lost all interest in this fandom. I am writing something new and I can say for certain that it has much better quality than my old works. Well hopefully some of you like it! Thank you for reading~
