The Prom

Chapter Thirteen

Confessions

Inu-Yasha and Kagome headed to the roof of the school for some privacy. Kagome was

really anxious to hear what Inu-Yasha wanted to say to her. As soon as they reached the

roof, Inu-Yasha made sure no one had followed them before he turned to Kagome.

"Now, what I was trying to say down there was, I never trusted anyone . . . that is until I

met you,"

Kagome nodded, and moved closer to him. It was a little chilly since it was night, and

the stars were glittering like diamonds. Inu-Yasha noticed this and removed his jacket

and placed on Kagome's shoulders.

"Thank you,"

(Ok the theme for Inu-Yasha and Kagome playing now!)

Inu-Yasha grabbed Kagome and pulled her closer to him. He placed his one hand on

her lower back, and the other on her shoulders. He loved holding her like this, and was

relieved that she didn't try to break away from his embrace. "Kagome, I trust you more

than anyone living. You changed my life greatly. You never asked me to change for

you, you' ve always excepted me in all my forms. Kagome you never teased me about

being a half-breed, or held my past against me. I want you always to be by my side, and I

always want to protect you. If you never return to the past because the jewel is

completer, then . . . I . . . I . . ."

Kagome wrapped her arms around his shoulders, urging him to go on.

"I would die inside with out you there. That's why every time you wanted to go home I

said no, because every time you left I felt like a part of me was gone. But if you do leave,

I'll shatter that jewel again if it will keep you here. "I know that at times I may have

acted like I hate you, but I don't I could never hate. I only acted like a tough guy because

last time I thought I was in love, they always got hurt. Basically what I'm trying to say is

. . . I . . . I love you Kagome . . . and will you . . . will you become my mate?"

Inu-Yasha closed his eyes and waited for her response. If she rejected him, he didn't

know what he would do.

"Yes,"

Inu-Yasha flashed his eyes open and looked down at the girl in his arms. She had a big

smile on her face, and tears were welling up in her eyes.

"Kagome please don't cry," whispered Inu-Yasha.

"But these are tears of happiness, you have no idea how long I've waited to hear those

words leave your mouth. I love you too Inu-Yasha,"

Inu-Yasha didn't know what to say, so he let his left hand rub her cheek as tears fell

down her face. "Really?"

"Yes, even though you were sometimes mean to me, I looked past that to see the good

side of you. You were always there to protect me, and you've saved my life I don't know

how many times. But Inu-Yasha . . . I thought you loved . . . "

Kagome was silenced as Inu-Yasha put a finger to her lips, "Don't say her name. I

thought that maybe once I loved Kikyo, but it was more companionship than anything. I

love you Kagome, not Kikyo, just you," Inu-Yasha leaned his head down and brushed his

lips against Kagome's, going back and forth across her silk lips.

"Kiss me Inu-Yasha . . . your going to drive me crazy any minute," whispered Kagome.

Inu-Yasha finally kissed her gently on the lips; his hands were on her shoulders.

Kagome wrapped her arms around Inu-Yasha's neck to deepen the kiss. Inu- Yasha's one

hand was tangled in her hair while his other one was on her lower back. They had both

closed there eyes, but had to part for air. Inu-Yasha cupped Kagome's face in his hands

and just stared at her beauty, he couldn't believe that she was his.

"Kagome, can I ask you something?"

"Of course Inu-Yasha,"

"Since were going to be together, would you like me to stay in your time?"

Kagome smiled, went up on her tip toes and kissed Inu-Yasha again. Inu- Yasha was

surprised at first, but responded quickly with more passion. Kagome pulled away before

they got more into the kiss. "No Inu-Yasha, I want to live in your world. It's so peaceful

there and beautiful,"

Inu-Yasha smiled, but he still had something else to ask her. "And also, I'm immortal

and you are not, so we won't be able to be together forever. If it's alright, I want to turn

human so I can be with you,"

Kagome gasped and hugged Inu-Yasha, "No! No, Inu-Yasha I don't want you to change!

I like you the way you are, you don't have to change for me!"

"But then . . . what can . . ." he was interrupted as Kagome kissed him again.

"We'll worry about that later okay?" whispered Kagome.

Inu-Yasha nodded and kissed Kagome again. Kagome almost yelped in surprise as she

felt Inu-Yasha's tongue graze her lips, begging for entrance. Slowly she opened her

mouth, and allowed Inu-Yasha to explore her mouth with his lounge. Inu- Yasha smiled

as Kagome moaned deep in her throat from the kiss. They broke apart for air and Inu-

Yasha started to nuzzle her neck.

"So, where are we going to live?" whispered Kagome, as she tangled her fingers in Inu-

Yasha's long hair.

"Somewhere in my forest, we'll be safe there and there is fresh water running through

there,"

"Sounds wonderful,"

"It will be close to the well, and not to far from the village,"

Kagome's hand's started to rub his back, and she wished that he had his dog ears tonight

so she could rub them. Inu-Yasha left her neck and pressed his forehead against hers.

"I love you," he whispered.

"I love you too," Kagome whispered back.

Inu-Yasha reached into his jacket and pulled out the small leather case, handing it to

Kagome.

"This is for you,"

Kagome looked at Inu-Yasha and took the case from his hand. Opening it, she saw a

solid gold locket with hearts on the front. "Oh Inu-Yasha . . ." gasped Kagome. Flipping

it over she saw there was some words engraved on the back which read:

I

Will

Always

Love

You

Kagome

-Inu-Yasha

Kagome was speechless as she stared at the locket, new tears were forming in her eyes.

Inu-Yasha took the locket from the case and put it around her neck. Kagome stepped

forward and gave Inu-Yasha a kiss. When they needed to part for air Inu- Yasha

embraced Kagome and held her tight, trying to keep her warm from the night coldness.

"When we return to my world, I'll start building our house,"

"What will it look like?" Kagome smiled, she loved talking to Inu-Yasha about their

future together.

"I like the way your house is built, we'll have our bedroom upstairs and one where our

pups will sleep. Then downstairs we'll have a guest room for when ever Miroku and

Sango decide to visit, and we'll have a sitting room, and place to cook too,"

Kagome snuggled into Inu-Yasha's warmth, and had her hands on his chest, her fingers

doing small circles just below his neck. "What else?"

"If you like we can have a garden, and flower beds to like at your house,"

"I like the sound of that,"

"Then after our house is built, we'll get Miroku to marry us,"

"We'll have to have a ceremony here too with my family," added Kagome.

"After that, we'll live happily ever after with our pups,"

"Sounds like a wonderful future to me," said Kagome.

Inu-Yasha cupped Kagome's head in his hands and pecked her on the lips, "Well, shall

we head back to t he prom?"

"Can we just stay out here a little a longer?"

"Of course we can,"

Unknown to the two lovers, they were being watched by a very furious Hojo. He had

followed them from the gym and had heard their whole conversation. Hojo wasn't sure

what world this Inu-Yasha lived in, but like hell he would let him get away with his

Kagome. Hojo moved deeper into the shadows, and waited for his chance to attack Inu-

Yasha.

Inu-Yasha turned Kagome so she had her back to him, and he wrapped his arms around

her waist. Kagome snuggled against his chest as they stared up at the stars. She could

hear Inu-Yasha start to hum a song. Turning her head slightly she asked, "What are you

humming?"

"Just a song my mother used to sing to me when I was little,"

"I bet you really miss her,"

"I do. Kagome?"

"Yes?"

"Tomorrow, can I . . ."

"What is it?"

"Well tomorrow, I might hurt you tomorrow,"

"What do you mean?"

"You agreed to be my mate right?"

"Of course I did,"

"Well, when demons choose their mates, they have to mark them in two ways. One is a

cut mark on their neck,"

"Will it hurt really badly?"

"Not really, I just use my fangs,"

"And what's the other way?"

Inu-Yasha buried his face into her hair before saying, "We do that after were married,"

Kagome blushed ten shades of red, but smiled as she could tell Inu-Yasha was blushing

too since his cheeks felt hot against her skin.

"What will we name our pups?" asked Kagome.

Inu-Yasha rested his head on her shoulder and smiled, "Well that depends if it's a boy a

girl,"

"If it's a girl?"

"I've always liked the name Sakura," Inu-Yasha whispered in her ear.

"I like that name. And if a boy?"

"I don't know, what do you think?"

"I like the name Daniel,"

"That's a nice name,"

The wind started to blow harder, which made Kagome shiver and Inu-Yasha was

starting to get chilled. "I think we should go in now,"

Kagome nodded. Inu-Yasha didn't remove his arms, he still had them wrapped around

Kagome's waist as they walked to the door. Kagome reached for the door knob, but

suddenly heard a sickening crack above her head, and Inu-Yasha's arms leave her waist.

Turning around she saw Hojo behind her, and Inu-Yasha was on the ground with a black

eye.

"Stay away from Kagome!" snarled Hojo.

Inu-Yasha got to his feet and raised his fists like Hojo was doing. "What the heck do

you want Hobo?"

"Kagome is my girl, and there is no way I'm going to allow you to have her,"

Kagome was really getting pissed off at Hojo, "Look Hojo, isn't it my decision to decide

who I want to be with?"

Kagome, just stay out of this!" yelled Hojo

"Don't ever speak to Kagome like that!" Inu-Yasha snarled. He would rather die than let

someone yell at his mate like that and get away with it.

Kagome didn't know what to do. If either of the two guys weren't watching what they

were doing, they could easily fall over the edge of the roof and fall to their death.

"Inu-Yasha . . . " Kagome whispered.
