I don't own Inuyasha, just borrowing A Life of Love Chapter 2: Decisions

Kagome awoke to a strange surprise. She could not feel Inuyasha next to her, so she rolled over and Inuyasha was not lying in the bed. She sat up and looked around the room but he was nowhere to be seen. She then heard a yelp coming from the kitchen. She got up, walked out into the hallway and peered around the corner of the doorway to see Inuyasha standing over the stove trying to cook some decent fish but failing miserably. "Um...Inuyasha." Inuyasha jumped back from the stove and started to blush. "Kagome, H...How did you sleep." "Oh fine, but I was a little worried when I didn't see you next to me this morning." "Ye...yeah sorry, but as you can see I was trying to teach myself to cook fish but it's not working out so well." Kagome just smiled at him, "You could always have asked me to teach you," "I know but I wanted to make you breakfast." "Oh Inuyasha, you're so cute." Eager to change the subject Inuyasha asked, "So Kagome, have you decided what to wish for with the sacred jewel?" "Yes I have but I just need to talk to my mom about my wish. I would like to talk to her today." "Okay, why don't you get the jewel and we can go to the well." "Okay." Kagome walked back into the bedroom and took the sacred jewel from her backpack and went into the hall where Inuyasha was waiting. They walked down the stairs and to the well in complete silence. "Inuyasha, please wait here. This will not take long." "Okay." With that Kagome jumped down the well and back to her time. 'I hope she will stay with me.' Inuyasha thought to himself.

"Oh Kagome your home." "Yes mother, but not for long." "Oh, so you're going back to the feudal age. Just stopped by for some medicine?" "No mother," Kagome said with her head lowered as tears started to fall to the floor, "I'm going to use the power of the sacred jewel to turn myself into a half demon and live with Inuyasha in the feudal age. But mother please don't be angry with me, I love Inuyasha so much and he loves me. I think we should be together." "It's ok Kagome, I understand. I only hope you will always be happy." And with those few comforting words her mother hugged her. "I just hope you will come see your family once in a while." "I will mom." Then the young girl turned around and ran back to the well and jumped in.

Kagome crawled out of the well to see Inuyasha standing in front of her with a very worried look on his face. "Don't worry Inuyasha, everything will be perfectly fine from now on." Kagome then took Inuyasha's hand and led him to a small stream. "Inuyasha....I am ready to make my wish and I want you to be here when I make it." Inuyasha just nodded and watched as Kagome took the jewel and held it in her hands. She gave Inuyasha one last comforting look then closed her eyes and said, "Make me a half dog demon so I can stay with Inuyasha forever." The hanyou's face lit up as a wide smile spread across it. The sacred jewel started to glow and Kagome was engulfed in a bright pink aura. Then it disappeared and all that was left was Kagome. Inuyasha starred in amazement. Her hair had turned white and she had large dog ears exactly like his. She also had small fangs and sharp claws, her eyes had also turned golden. "Kagome, you look beautiful!" "Really?" "Yes, you look absolutely stunning." Inuyasha then took Kagome's hand and pulled her over to the stream so she could see her reflection. Inuyasha was right. She looked so beautiful. She turned to Inuyahsa and held him tight. "Oh Inuyasha, now I can stay in the feudal age with you for the rest of my life." Inuyasha held Kagome at arms length and starred at her with huge eyes. "Really Kagome! You can stay with me!" "Yes Inuyasha I can." Inuyasha embraced Kagome and held her as tight as he could without hurting her. 'Is that Inuyasha's scent. Its so calming, I feel so safe in his arms.' Inuyasha breathed in through his nose and noticed something very interesting. 'Damn! Kagome's scent is so seducing now that she is a hanyou. She's going to drive me crazy!' Kagome let go of Inuyasha and walked forward a few steps, "Lets go home shall we Inuyasha?" The half demon walked up to his love and they ran off together towards their house. When they reached the great redwood tree instead of running up the stairs they both jumped up through one of the windows and hit the floor of the hallway. Inuyasha stood up and took Kagome's hand. When she was up she put her arms around his neck and pulled him into a passionate kiss. They turned and walked into the bedroom and closed the door.

The next morning, Inuyasha awoke facing Kagome. She was still sleeping so he decided to wake her up the same way she would by slowly rubbing her ears. The young dog demon smiled to himself when she purred and slowly opened her eyes. Inuyasha leaned over and whispered into Kagome's ear, "Good morning my love." Kagome smiled and kissed the man that lay next to her, "Now we are mates Inuyasha." Soon a familiar scent floated in through their bedroom window. In unison they both said under their breath, "Koga." Slowly they got out of bed, got properly dressed and jumped down from the window to land softly behind Koga. He started to sniff the air and then spun around quickly. "I thought I smelled you around here dog turd. I am here to claim my Kag..." Koga stopped in mid sentence to stare at the now half demon standing next to Inuyasha. "Ka...Kagome. Is that you, you look beautiful, but how?" "I used the sacred jewel to turn myself into a half demon." "So you could be with me?" "No, so I could be with Inuyasha." "But....but you're my mate." "Wrong Koga, I'm Inuyasha's mate!" Koga stood shocked at these words, he opened his mouth to speak but before he could he caught the wind on his nose and howled, he then lunged at Kagome but lucky for her Inuyasha met him halfway and caught him by the throat. "Wrong answer wolf boy!" Inuyasha said as he started to squeeze Koga's throat. "Inuyasha, let him go for now. But if he tries anything again then you can definitely kill him." "Kagome, how could you say something like that." "I am Inuyasha's and he is mine and we will always be together." "That's exactly right, and you will never come between us." Koga struggled free from Inuyasha's grip and speed off screaming, "This isn't over dog breath, Kagome will be mine one day!" "Not as long as I live Koga!" Kagome walked up behind Inuyasha, put her arms around him and laid her head on his shoulder, "You really mean that Inuyasha?" "Of course I do love. Now why don't we go back home so we can plan our day." "That's fine with me, my Inuyasha." The two half breeds held hands and then walked back to their house among the trees. When they arrived at the house Kagome kissed Inuyasha on the cheek, "All I want is to spend the day with you, my Inuyasha." Inuyasha thought for a few seconds then spoke, "We could always go see Sango and Miroku, they should have finished their honeymoon around this time." "That's right! They took their honeymoon about a week ago." "Well then it's settled, we'll go to the village and see Sango and Miroku. Although when we get there we'll have to endure Miroku's pestering grin's and questions." "Well then we tell them the truth, I mean you don't want to hide our relationship do you, lover?" Kagome said with a pouty look on her face. "Of course I don't Kagome, I don't care who knows about our relationships as long as you are happy." "I'll always be happy as long as I am with you Inuyasha." Inuyasha pulled Kagome into a tight embrace as they stood in the hallway. "What's wrong Inuyasha?" Kagome asked with a growing concern in her voice. "Nothing Kagome, I just want to spend a little more time with you alone." "Well, we can always go see them later." Kagome said with a sly grin on her face. Inuyasha just smiled, "And what is it that you wish to do, love?" "How about we go for a walk, it is rather nice out today." "That sounds perfect." They then turned and left down the stairs once again.
