Kagome felt so stupid. Why did she even come to the dance if she wasn't going to actually dance? Because it's Valentine's Day and Sango and Miroku are together and I'd be stuck with Inuyasha growling at me, that's why, she thought to herself.

She came back to the present a week earlier to pick out her dress, all for a Valentine's Day dance she wasn't enjoying. She ended up just standing near the food, watching happy couples dance. She pulled her hair back and remembered the red flower in her hair. It reminded her of Inuyasha.Oh, Inuyasha, if only you were here.

Inuyasha knew about Valentine's Day. She thought she should tell him before she left, so he knew this dance meant something. Suddenly, the sight of couples walking out brought her back to the present. The dance was over.

Kagome walked over to a dark area so no one would notice she was alone. All of a sudden, a hand reached out and pulled her deeper into the shadows.

"Kagome, you need to come back," a familiar voice whispered. "Inuyasha, what're you doing here?" "You...you just need to come back, okay?"

Inuyasha brought her to her house and let her pack. For some reason, she felt the urge to bring her boom box, so she stuffed that in her bag along with various items.

Finally, they were back in the Feudal Era. It wasn't until then that Kagome noticed she was still wearing her dress.

"Uh, Inuyasha, why did you want me back?" "Well, I, uh.." Inuyasha began to blush "I was..er.." "You were lonely, weren't you?" "Uh, yeah." They were standing outside under the stars. Kagome never realized how much better she could see them out here. And the moon shined bright and beautiful.

"The stars are beautiful, aren't they Inuyasha?" Kagome said to break the silence "Uh yeah, I guess"

Kagome decided to pull out her boombox and play a song. She turned on a slow song that was one of her favorites.

"Uh, Kagome?" "Yeah?" "What exactly do you do in those dances of yours?" "Well, we dance to music. Usually, when a slow song comes on, couples dance together slowly." "Could..could you show me how to dance?"

Kagome was shocked to hear this, but she decided to show him anyway.

"Well, uh, you put your hands around my waist and I put my arms around your neck, like this."

Inuyasha did what she said, but felt stupid doing it. Then again, it was nice that he and Kagome could get this close for once. "Okay, now you just kind of sway in time to the music." Inuyasha finally got the hang of it, and he and Kagome danced for some time. I wish we could stay like this forever, Kagome thought.

WOOSH! Something passed by Inuyasha and Kagome, breaking them apart. Inuyasha pulled out the Tetsuiga, ready for whatever threat there was.

*Cool, huh? I know, not much talking and the cliffhanger is annoying, but I'll write Ch.2 ASAP, but, only if you give good reviews.*
