(Kagome POV as usual)

We arrived at the mall, and I took him into the surf shop. " It would be hilarious if there

was shorts with your hexagonal flower pattern." I mumbled. Sadly they did not. Go figure.

He got a pair of navy blue ones. " You can not be serious." He mumbled when we bought them.

" I am." I giggled. We returned home, and Souta just got the pool clean. I wore a red and blue bikini. Sesshomaru came outside, and I had to say, he looked very...'god-like'. It was funny watching Sesshomaru get in a swimming pool, he had no fear of it, but he looked confused. Souta did a cannon-ball in. I laughed. I eventually jumped in. It was night time by the time he got in. I always enjoyed night swimming. "Come on Sesshomaru!" He was still standing on the steps. "Fine." He jumped in, his hair getting all wet. I laughed. I never thought I would see the day Sesshomaru jumped in a swimming pool. Hell, I never thought I'd see the day that Sesshomaru wasn't trying to murder me. "This Sesshomaru finds the water relaxing." He stated.

" Well thats good." I said. "Hn." "We should return tomorrow." I said. " Yes, that would be

logical." He said. " Don't go all Spock on me." I laughed. " Spock?" He muttered. " Don't ask."

I said. " I've learned not to." He retorted. " You guys are weird." Souta mumbled. " So?" I grinned. " What did you guys do to Inuyasha?" Souta asked. " Souta, thats between the three of us. I will tell you when everything is handled." I replied. We got out and my mother had hot tea waiting for all of us. " Thanks mama." I said. She smiled. I got in my Pajamas, and knocked on Sesshomaru's door. " Come in." He said. I walked in. He was like the other day. Just the hakamas and the ribbon. I blushed. " It's fine." He stated. I nodded. But his hair was in a high pony tail. " I came to say goodnight. And that.. I'll go with you to the house of the west." I said.

" Thank you, Kagome." Sesshomaru half smiled. " Tomorrow- Will it be possible if I say goodbye to my friends? I'll have to give them my shards, and goodbye presents." I said. " Yes, I'll be able to work that out. Rin is there." Sesshomaru said. I nodded. " Good night Sesshomaru." " Goodnight Kagome." I heard while exiting his room. (Tomorrow) "Goodbye!" We both jumped into the well together.

We got to the feudal era, and got out of the well. I hauled my bag over. (lol I wonder when her bag is gonna break! Its so huge and the straps are SOO small! haha) ~with Inuyasha~

"Damn it. I smell Kagome and Sesshomaru. How the hell can she say that stuff about him?!" Inuyasha mumbled. " Look, she has a right. You go off doing god knows what with Kikyo. Its only fair." Sango told Inuyasha. " She better not expect to come back to our group." Inuyasha growled. " My friend, It is her life." Miroku stated. "He's too old for her!" Inuyasha retorted. " Well, my friend, you aren't exactly a spring chicken either." ~With Kagome~ I entered the hut where the group was. "I'm leaving. I bet you guys can bear without me. Sango, I hand the shards to you." I gave her the shards. " I brought you guys some stuff, though. For you Sango" I handed her a few bottles of different shampoo. I gave Miroku some mangas, 'accidently' giving him a few yuri books as well. He grinned. I gave Shippo my leftover easter candy, and some markers. Kirara was harder, due to the fact she was a cat. I ended up just getting her some cat nip. As I was giving Inuyasha his Ramen packages, he bursted out, slapping them away.

" Feh, just go. No one needs you here." Inuyasha growled. " Goodbye Sango, Miroku, Shippo. Take care." I said not even giving Inuyasha eye contact. Shippo hugged me. " Bye mama." " Goodbye Shippo." I hugged my son. I left the building without even looking at Inuyasha. " You will regret what you said, my friend." Miroku muttered. ~With Kagome~

" Thank you for letting me say goodbye." I said to Sesshomaru. " Hn." We picked up Rin. " Lady Kagome, why are you coming with us?" She asked. " Rin, she will be traveling with us from now on." Sesshomaru said. Rin grinned. We traveled, and Rin spoke about flowers. " Lady Kagome, have you ever seen a black rose?" She asked. " Actually I received one from a friend not to long ago, why?" I asked. " They remind me of you." She giggled. We reached the house of the west in remarkable time. Thats where we met up with Jaken. " Wench! Why are you here?! You are the same as Kagura! Lord Sesshomaru will never love you!" He said in his high pitch squeal. I sweat dropped."Thats enough Jaken." Sesshomaru stepped on Jaken's head, and I felt bad for the small creature. " Lord Sesshomaru, mind me ask, who is this fine young woman?" A neko demon asked. " Zero, this is Kagome. If you would escort her to my chamber, that would be helpful. I will take her to her chambers myself, later." Sesshomaru said. " Yes lord Sesshomaru." he bowed, and took me to his chamber. It was very large, go figure. Zero left, and I sat on the floor, and began to read a history book. A few hours later Sesshomaru entered his chambers. " I have to thank you for letting me stay." I said. He nodded. He sat next to me, and wrapped his arm around my shoulders. My cheeks were bright red. For some reason, this felt so right.
