Chapter 2 – Good to be back!
"I'm off," she said as she ran to the well. She hopped inside and felt the familiar tingling sensation. When it was over, she heard birds chirping and a low constant growl that could only be from Inuyasha. She was in the feudal era.
When Kagome emerged from the well, Inuyasha was about to razz on her for being late but he stopped. She looks so…prettyhe thought as he helped her out.
"So, what do you think?" Kagome questioned as she did a quick twirl. Her hair danced around her in a light that Inuyasha only saw once in a while.
"You look fine," he said as he blushed and turned away. His eyes lead him to the sacred tree. That's right. Today's the day when we first met a year ago. Is that why she is so dressed up?
Kagome looked at him, irritated that he looked away but when she saw his huge blush, she smiled to herself. When she had finally regained herself, Kagome took Inuyasha's hand and lead him to Kaede's hut, ignoring his even further blushes. She stepped inside, still holding his hand.
Sango, Shippo, and Miroku all looked up at her quickly, but did a double take. "Kagome, you look different," Shippo said as he inspected her.
"Kagome, you look so beautiful with all those new things," Sango said smiling. "Oh, by the way, Happy Birthday!" she said, pulling out a whole bunch of herbs.
"Oh, Sango, thank you," Kagome said as she graciously accepted the herbs. "These will help a lot with my medicines."
"Kagome, I have asked this question before and I can't help but asking it again," Miroku said, taking one of her hands. The other strayed lower. "Will you bear my child?" Kagome mouth dropped as she felt his hand on her butt. She squeaked and backed up behind Inuyasha who held out one arm to protect her, and the other to attack Miroku. Fortunately, Sango beat him to the punch for she had banged her hiraikotsu over Miroku's head, almost knocking him out.
As Inuyasha growled at Miroku, he remembered that Kagome had gotten happy at the sight of herbs and that Sango had something about her birthday. Damn it! I forgot it was her birthday today! I don't have a gift for her He quietly left the hut and ran for a nearby by field where he frantically searched for lilies. He finally found a small bunch among hundreds of daffodils. These should do.
Kagome was edgy about what Inuyasha was doing. What if Kikyo came by and he went after her? Her heart saddened at the thought and tears began to form in her eyes. I thought today was our special day. Oh, he is going to get it when he gets back.
Inuyasha ran back to the hut with the lilies behind his back.I hope she is the kind of girl who likes this kind of thing; otherwise she is out of luck Before he could even enter, Kagome came storming out, hatred burning in her eyes. He backed away fast, really fast.
"Inuyasha, you are such a jerk! I got all dressed up to come and see you today and then you run off to see Kikyo! Arggh, SIT!!!" She screamed and watched as he smashed face first into the earth, the flowers flying everywhere. "And then you had the nerve to bring the flowers that you were going to give her. What, did she say goodbye before you could even present them?" She ran off, tears flying from her eyes.
Miroku came outside. He saw wet earth, Inuyasha on the ground, and lilies. "What did you do this time?"
Inuyasha sat up growling but his voice was sad. "All I did was bring her a present and this is how she repays me…" He ran off to the sacred tree.
Sango came out to stand by Miroku's side. "What was that about?"
Miroku shrugged and began picking up the lilies. "It's Kagome's birthday and Inuyasha brought her a present but Kagome thought they were for Kikyo so she sat him." He stood up and walked in the direction that Kagome had run off. "I'll be back in a bit."
