"InuYasha!?" Kagome gasped.
InuYasha looked up from his spot at the bottom of the well to see her, and grunted a little with his usual,"Feh." He glared up at her a little, and warned her, "Why did you come back to your time yesterday after the battle? You just ran off without telling me! You could have gotten hurt. Or worse."
With that, he leapt out of the well, and landed on the ground perfectly, much like a cat.
Her eyes filled with bright tears along with relief, and total bliss, and she instantly wrapped her arms around him, hugging her arms tightly around him, and buried her face into his chest, silently sobbing.
He stared down at her, getting into his usual panic state, girls crying and him left to cheer them up was never one of his best traits, as a matter of fact, he usually was the reason they were crying! "K-Kagome? W-why are you crying!?" stumbled from his lips, as he tried to think up a way to bring that smile back to her, but failed, and simply let his arms wrap around her, pulling her into a warm embrace.
"I. Thought you were dead." she coughed out between her sobs and gasps for air, never before had she been so scared as she had been the day before, and never had she been so relieved as she was now.
"." he gave her a puzzled look, arching a brow slightly,"Dead?"
She weakly nodded against his chest.
"Ano.. Kagome, would you returning have anything to do. With. My confession?"
She blinked a little, how could she have forgotten about that? The most important words she had ever heard, it must have been what all happened. "No! of course not.. Truthfully. I... Well, I love. You too, InuYasha."
She had confessed!
His face pretty much lit up, he smiled down at her, a fire of joy burning in his golden eyes, and he advanced, daring himself, he kissed her on the lips, momentarily, before quickly pulling away from the kiss, and embrace. "Alright, come on. We have to return."
Her cheeks turned bright pink, and stayed that way, long after the kiss, her eyes glued to his face, only giving him a small nod in reply.
He. He KISSED me! . She blushed, even at the thought. . Yesterday, he was dead. I could have sworn it. But. Could he have just fallen unconscious.? .InuYasha.
She sighed and shook her head, displeased with herself, he was fine, right? Why should she worry about thinking if was dead then? He was fine and standing right in front of her, not a scratch on him, or that she could see. With that, she moved to his side, ready to venture into the feudal era of Japan once more.
He protectively wrapped an arm around her, and together, they jumped into the well.
~*~
The scene still played back in her mind, repeating like an endless tune, a never-ending music box, dead, he was dead, she swore he was. Yet, he was alive. It was like the first time she had ever set eyes on the boy, pinned to the tree still, even after 50 years, he was dead to the world, but he only looked like he was sleeping, and ever so peacefully, could it have been backwards this time? He was only asleep, well, unconscious, but looked dead?
"Oi, Kagome, snap out of it." InuYasha said.
She blinked, and snapped out of her thoughts,"G-gomen."
"What's wrong with you today? You've been actin' strange, really spacey and out of it today." he stated, glancing toward the girl.
She gave him a small smile, a fake obviously, and answered him in much of a whisper, her voice low, and tired,"Don't worry about me, it's nothing, I think I'm just a little tired, that's all."
"Feh! That's a lie onna. I thought we worked everything out back in your time." he snorted.
"We did. I told you, I'm fine." she tried to convince him.
But he didn't buy it, not a bit. "Feh, tell me."
". I told you in the well house, I thought you were dead, I thought you got killed yesterday."
"Well, I'm alive and well as you can tell. You think that puny youkai could defeat me!?" he gave her a small, insults frown.
"Well. No, not at first, but then." she fell silent.
". Well, Kagome?"
"Never mind." She smiled,"Let's forget about it."
"Feh, you're the only one who thinks I died, so it's you who needs to forget about it."
~*~
Kagome was practically attacked with hugs from Shippou as he ran over to her and jumped into her arms, squealing out her name cheerfully,"Kagome!!!"
She smiled a little, hugging him back tightly,"Shippou-chan.."
And he was not too far ahead of the monk, and demon exterminator.
Kagome smiled cheerfully, she was so happy to see them all, she never though she would be THIS happy to see them alive and well. She lifted her hand into the air and waved at the two, which was quickly and willingly returned.
InuYasha smirked a little, and walked over to Mirkou, placing his hand in front of his ear to whisper into the monk's ear,"Kagome has been acting. I think she hit her head or something in a battle I was in yesterday, just to warn you."
But his whisper wasn't low enough, she scowled, but didn't use her word of power like she normally would.
Sango gave Kagome a warm smile,"So, how was your trip Kagome-chan?"
She returned the smile, but uncertainty ran clear as a bell through her voice,"It was. Fine, I guess."
Sango blinked a little, noticing her tone, and asked her letting the smile slide across her lips again,"Are you sure?"
She nodded.
Miroku pushed InuYasha aside, and bowed his head down toward Kagome,"Greetings, Kagome-sama."
She smiled over at him, polite as ever he was,"Hello, Miroku."
It was obvious to everyone she was putting on an act, she wasn't as cheerful as usual, in her mind, she still thought back, but less and less every few minuets.
~*~
Four days had gone by since she had gone and come back, and the day was completely erased from her mind, she was her usual cheerful self, and enjoyed every minuet she spent with her companions, especially InuYasha, even if they did still get into their usual arguments.
"Ramen!" Kagome gave out a small squeal, and began to work on her food, a smile spread across her lips, bright and big, pure joy.
InuYasha looked at her, as he sloppily ate his food, stuffing a bunch of the noodles into his mouth at a time, and tried to figure out how she could be so cheerful all the time, but he couldn't figure it out. Feh. Women.
Shippou sat at Kagome's side, laying flat on his stomach, crayons in his hands, and paper on the ground as he colored, he loved it when Kagome brought him things from her time, and his favorite was the paper and crayons, so she made sure to bring him new ones every once in a while. He smiled his cherubic smile, his demonic orbs plastered on the sheet as he went on with the coloring, and once he had finished, he sat up, and held the paper up so Kagome could see it. "Look! I'm done." he smiled, a proud grin across his lips.
Kagome gave a small giggle as she looked over the picture, on it was everyone in the group, Kagome drawn very nice and pretty, Shippou drawn innocently, Sango a gorgeous girl, Kirara cute and adorable, Miroku, well.. He was normal, yet he had that look in his eyes, and then InuYasha. Something to laugh over, and something that would earn Shippou a beating, InuYasha looked like a mad dog, barking and snapping, which Shippou saw a lot of.
Miroku, Sango, and Kagome admired the picture, as InuYasha growled in anger, his fist twitching as he tried to hold back from hitting the small kitsune, which didn't work, he ended up punching the kitsune in the head, leaving a big bump where his fist had met his head.
Shippou yelled in pain, and grabbed his head, glaring up at the hanyou,"What was that for!?"
"That was for the picture you drew!!!" InuYasha roared, pointing at the paper like it was a filthy beast.
But his roar was nothing compared to Kagome's,"Osuwari!"
Sango and Miroku both instantly closed their eyes, before they heard a loud * boom * from InuYasha smashing into the earth, and then daring to look.
"Is he ever going to learn?" Sango sighed a little, her eyes closed, and her head shaking in disappointment.
Miroku shrugged, his eyes closed with an agreeing nod.
After a moment of letting his face sit in the dirt, he lifted it up, wincing in pain as he looked up at Kagome,"Nani!? Why the hell did you."
"Because." she cut off,"You were going to hurt Shippou-chan for drawing a simple picture!"
"I was not!"
"Were too!"
"Feh!"
".."
She bent down slightly, offering him a hand,".. Gomen."
He blinked a little, looking at her hand, and up her arm to her face,".What are you plotting wench?"
She blinked,".Nothing."
Hesitantly, he lifted his hand up, grabbing hers, and pulled himself up.
"Kagome is so much more mature then InuYasha. Amazing considering InuYasha is so old." Miroku commented.
It earned him a giggle from Sango and Shippou, and a few blinks from Kagome.
But InuYasha glared at the monk, not only had he called the hanyou immature, but he had also called him old. "..Feh! You better watch it Miroku.." He threatened,"At least I don't touch every butt I see."
Miroku gave him a small chuckle, along with small innocent smile.
InuYasha plopped down on the ground, tucking his clawed hands into the sleeves of his haori, crossing his legs and looking away stubbornly.
Kagome sat down at his side, and moved closer to him,". Come on InuYasha.. Cheer up. He doesn't mean it.."
Did she expect him to just forget about it? Hmph, they always had to make fun of him. He only snorted, keeping his nose in the air, and his hues closing.

x.o; I figure I would just get this chapter up before I get to busy, heh.. Will be updated soon. I hope. Review! Ja!
