The sun was setting as the group made their way from door to door. They still had a long way to go, and Inuyasha kept glancing up at the sky nervously. The whole group moved ahead, but Kagome kept Inuyasha behind with her.
"What's wrong?" She asked in a hushed tone.
"Oh, nothing. It's just that tonight is the night of the new moon. It's sunset and I'm not back yet."
"Oh. Well, maybe you should get out of sight before you transform. I don't want my friends asking any questions." Kagome suggested. "If they ask, you can just tell them that you took off your wig or something. You shouldn't worry about any attacks. None of your enemies are here, remember?"
"Yeah your right I guess. I forgot about that. There's no demons in your era." Inuyasha said deep in thought.
"Nope." Kagome said with a smile. Her friends glanced behind them to make sure she was still there, she gave them a reassuring smile and they continued on. Miroku and Sango went back to walk with Kagome and Inuyasha.
"If I'm not mistaken, tonight is the night of the new moon. Meaning Inuyasha will turn full human." Miroku said concerned.
"Yeah don't remind me." Inuyasha said.
"Well, at least we won't have to worry about demons trying to take advantage of the situation." Sango said.
"That's true. I won't have to worry about Naraku or Kagara finding me." Said Inuyasha actually grateful for once.
"That's the spirit!" Kagome said cheerfully. Then she looked at Sango. "Anyway, Sango. Do you think there's any way you could be, uh, friendlier towards Miroku? So far your not doing a good job at selling the whole couple act." She finished. Sango blushed so rather than let Miroku see it she stared at the ground.
" Yeah Sango, that's what I've been saying all this time." Miroku said putting his arm around Sango, making her face turn even more red.
"Fine..." She muttered after a few seconds then lightly kissed Miroku on the cheek. She then looked away from him, suddenly very interested in the ground below her. Inuyasha just stared with his mouth hanging open. Miroku blushed, and stared at Sango in disbelief. Kagome did everything she could not to laugh.
"...Sango." Miroku said softely. "We should do that more often." Sango's expression went from emberassed to angry. She punched him, hard.
"Don't get used to it!" She growled. Inuyasha motioned for kagome to come close and whispered still in shock,
"You were right! They do like each other." Kagome stared at him for a couple of moments. Then shook her head in disbelief.
"You're just now realizing this?" Kagome asked.
"Well no!...Yeahhh." Inuyasha said hanging his head. Kagome laughed. Then she noticed the sun setting behind the hills.
"You should probably get out her here Inuyasha. You could turn any minute." She suggested.
"Yeah I guess. I don't want Koga following me around, finding out my secret. He still doesn't know and I want to keep it that way." Inuyasha said very set in his decsion.
"Well, okay. That's fine." Kagome said with a smile. "In that case, I'm coming with you." She finished. She looked at Sango and Miroku. "Make sure Koga doesn't follow us. If my friends ask, just tell them Inuyasha needed to go back and get something. Okay?"
"Alright, I'll have plenty to keep me busy. You didn't tell me everyone wears short kimonos." Mirkou said with a mischevious grin. Sango slapped him once again.
"If we're going to keep up this relationship act you had better behave!" She said.
"Yes my dear."Miroku whimpered in pain. Inuyasha began to walk away from the foursome, Kagome following close behind.
"What are you doing?" Inuyasha whined.
"Did you not hear me earlier?" Kagome asked. "I said I was coming with you."
"Oh I didn't think you were seriously coming." Kagome glared.
"Of course I am!" She replied.
"I can't talk you out of it then can I?"
"Nope." Kagome said, staring straight ahead.
"Eh, fine. You can come." I'm actually glad she wanted to come. I hate being alone when I'm human. When Kagomes with me somehow I feel complete. Inuyasha thought to himself. "Well Alright then let's go." Inuyasha motioned for Kagome to get on his back. Kagome did as he requested. Just as soon as she had gotten on Inuyasha leapt away onto the roof top of a near by from there, they found a quiet spot in a park of cherry blossom trees.
