Chapter One: The Day We Met
"Inuyasha….are we there yet?" Shippo whined as he sat on Kagome's shoulder. They had been walking through the forest for over an hour looking for a local village to sleep at. Kagome, Miroku, Sango, Shippo, and Kiarara were all beginning to tire out and wanted to hurry it up so they could rest.
"Shut up ya brat! We'll get there when we get there so shut your trap until then!" Inuyasha barked at the young fox cub.
"Kagome! He's being mean to me!" Shippo cried as he hugged onto Kagome's soft and silky jet black hair.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome said sternly. Inuyasha could sense the anger coming from her, and he knew what was coming.
"Kagome! Wait! No! think about what your doing! Ahh! Be reasonable!" Inuyasha wailed as he started to run away from her.
"Inuyasha, sit boy!" Kagome said quickly and sternly.
CRASH Inuyasha was plunged into the ground making a huge crater around him in the shape of his body.
Shippo laughed and stuck his tongue out at the immobilized body in the ground. Inuyasha shot his head up at the fox cub and sent him a death glare. Shippo quickly jumped to Sango's shoulder and hid in her long brunette hair for protection.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Oh this feels so gooood." Kagome sighed as she leaned up against a rock in the hot springs. Sango nodded in agreement. They both sank down into the hot water until it covered their mouths. Sango shot up when she heard a rustling in the bushes.
"Ugh! Miroku! Get your perverted ass out here!" Sango yelled as she threw a rock at the bush, but instead of a lecherous monk coming out…Shippo came out rubbing his head.
"Oh! Shippo it's just you! I'm so sorry!" Sango cried as she picked the young boy up.
"That's okay, I know you expected Miroku, or Inuyasha to be hiding, but actually passed out back at the hut"
"That's strange, normally, Miroku is hiding in the bushes watching Sango and I bathe…and then when Sango realizes he's there and makes him yell, Inuyasha always come's to 'save' me…their both perverted jerks aren't they?" Kagome sighed.
"I'm afraid so…I guess our choice in men isn't that great huh?" Sango agreed then sighed.
"You said it…HEY! Wait! What do you mean OUR choice in men?! I haven't 'chosen' anyone...UGH! SANGO! YOU MENT INUYASHA DID'NT YOU!?" Kagome yelled.
"Maybe…but come on Kagome! You know it's true! I mean, you did kiss him and all…"
"That was only to save him! It meant nothing!"
"Oh you know that's just bull shit!" a voice said from a distance.
'Oh crap!' Kagome shouted in her head. "INUYASHA! YOU PERVERT SIT!" She heard a crash followed by a moan and some cursing. "Inuyasha! Come here! NOW!" Kagome screeched.
"Why should I?!" He yelled back.
"Because, if you don't…why the hell should I have to explain that?! You know what'll happen if you don't get over here now!"
"I have no interest of 'seeing' you in that 'condition' Kagome."
"Oh! So that's how it is huh?!' Kagome got up and ran towards him, but she forgot one small, IMPORTANT thing! Her Clothes…
"Ahh! Kagome!? What the hell is the matter with you!? Miroku's right there! Put this on NOW!" Inuyasha screeched as he took off his kimono top and handed it to her.
"Hey, i'm not complaining" Miroku laughed from where he was.
"AHH!!" Kagome screamed. 'I FORGOT MY CLOTHES?! That means Inuyasha saw me…completely naked!' Kagome panicked in her head, but then noticed he was standing in front of her putting his kimono shirt around her nude body.
"She also noticed he was just looking into her eyes.
'Wow, their so pretty….their blue….and gray at the same time…..gah! When did I get mushy?' Inuyasha asked himself in his head. He shook it off when he could feel Kagome's arms wrapping around him.
"Ka…Kagome?" he asked blushing…"Wha…what are yo..you doing?" he stuttered.
"What does it look like? I'm thanking you!"
"Feh, for what?"
"For giving me something to cover up…so a certain someone wouldent get a peep show…" Kagome laughed as she looked over at the lecherous monk in the corner.
"Oh come, come Kagome! I'm not that bad!" Miroku said in an innocent voice, "I would have no interest in exploding your discomfort!"
"Oh yeah, sure, ill believe that when I believe that when Inuyasha grows wings and fly's away." Kagome laughed.
"Oh so now, you want me to leave?" Inuyasha asked
"No! Its sarcasm…you of all people should know what sarcasm is!"
"Hmm…oh you mean when you say something to someone, but don't mean it?" Miroku interrupted.
"Exactly!"
"Keh, just a bunch of human crap…"
"Shut up!...um…Inuyasha?"
"huh?"
"You can let go of me now."
"Oh right." He quickly withdrew his arms from around Kagome and she stepped back. She tied his Kimono shirt into a short dress. "Hey, didn't you do the same thing to it waaaay back when we were in Tojekio?"
"Omigod! You can remember things!...Except one thing."
"What? I remember everything!" he exclaimed
"No, you always forget one day of the year that's important to me…" Kagome whimpered and pushed her bottom lip out into a pout.
"What?"
"You always forget the day we met, my birthday."
"What's a 'birthday'?" both Inuyasha and Miroku asked at the same time.
"It's the day you were born…you have what's called a birthday party where you invite all of your friends and family over to your home, and you eat cake and they give you lots and lots of presents…but I don't really care so much about the presents, just who I'm with." She smiled as she sat down and closed her eyes. Inuyasha cocked his head and sat in front of her. He studied her expression before he figured out she was thinking about something.
Flashback:
"Where am I?" Kagome whispered as she climbed out of the old well. "Where's Sota and mama? And Grampa?" she walked around outside of the well. "Where's the house?!" She spinned around frantically trying to find the large house. It was gone!
"Oh! The sacred tree! I must be home!" She said. She began running towards the huge tree. When she got there she froze. "A boy?" she whispered. A wind blew through and blew the long silver hair that rested on the boys head. "Oh! Look! He has cute little dog ears! I want to…..I want to touch them!" she giggled and climbed up tree roots to the boys. She leaned up against him slightly and reached towards his ears. She laughed when she rubbed the soft white dog ears in between her index fingers and thumbs. "Kagome?...Kagome?...Kagome?" she heard a boys voice call to her.
End Flashback:
"Kagome?...Yo? Anyone home in there?" Inuyasha laughed as she snapped back into reality and jumped at him being so close to her. She looked out of the corner of her eye to see Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kiarara sitting around. Miroku was talking to Sango and the others about something, but since Kagome and Inuyasha were currently located the other side of the hut, Kagome couldn't quite make out what he was saying so she decided to just look back at Inuyasha. She sighed and rested her head onto his shoulder. She snuggled in close to him. He turned bright red in embarrassment and tried to push her off of him. But the more he tried to push her off, the tighter she sqweezed onto him. He yelped in pain.
"Ka…Kagome? Ya mind getting off of m" he started to say but was cut off by Kagome.
"Just shut up and enjoy it." She smirked and buried her face into his chest. He blushed again but decided she was right and wrapped his arms around her fragile body. She smiled and closed her eyes. He leaned in to her ear so he could speak privately to her.
"Look Kagome…I'm sorry I forget your birthday…we don't have birthdays here so I didn't know I needed to remember it…ill make it up to you…when is your next birthday?" he whispered sweetly
"Tomorrow…"
"Oh…there's
a new moon too…great…" he sighed and held her closer in his
arms. She bent her knees in and crawled into his lap, but this time,
he didn't blush. He just held her closer to him and smiled.
"Aww!" Sango and Miroku cooed from across the room.
"Feh!" Inuyasha smirked. He lifted Kagome up into his arms and carried her outside. They sat down on a bench outside of the hut and watched to stars, and the sliver of moon left twinkle in the sky.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
