*Five years later*
She stood under the Goshinboku and touched it's trunk lightly, fighting back the tears that overwhelmed her. She only allowed herself this once a year to grieve over her lost love. This is the place where they first kissed, she could remember it perfectly as if it just happened minutes ago.
*Flash back*
She sat Indian style her back resting against the rough bark of the tree. Sixth grade was tough, all the homework and stuff. It was nothing like elementary school were you had the teacher pretty much holding your hand the whole time.
She hadn' t noticed that she had been dozing till she felt someone tug on her hair playfully. Snapping her eyes open she came face to face with golden orbs, the ones she had been dreaming about since she finally realized boys DIDN'T have cooties.
Gasping she pushed herself to a standing position only to fall right into his arms. It was the normal awkward teenage moment. Her rave black hair was pulled back in braided pigtails, making her face seem even pudgier. Yes she was over weight in the sixth grade, and not exactly a beauty.
Inuyasha on the other hand was gorgeous, every girl up to the 8th grade wanted him and couldn't understand why he spent so much time with the fat loner girl.
Inuyasha on the other hand couldn't get enough of her for some reason, even though he was still in the stage of hating girls, and only wanting to play football or spit with guys. Sometimes he was a little unnerved by all the looks he had gotten from girls, that's why he liked to hang out with Kagome so much. She was different
They split apart quickly and she smiled awkwardly at him, keeping her mouth closed not wanting to show off her braces. He just grinned back and tugged on her pig tail again "So what's up metal mouth, didn't see you at school today."
She growled a very dog like growl and he just grinned, growling even louder back at her. She muttered something under her breath and his canine ears twitched towards her "Heard that and i think that's legal just to let ya know." He smirked at her frustrated look.
Rolling her eyes Kagome just plopped back down and leaned back against the tree trunk. He took it as an invitation and sat down next to her. They sat in companiable silence as the sun lowered in the western sky, turning to dusk.
"I had to stay home because......" She blushed and muttered "female problems" under her breath.
He flinched and lowered his ears, he had taken health and seen all those videos and seriously did NOT want to know more about it.
She sighed great fully at his silence and closed her eyes halfway, daydreaming about what it would be like if she were skinny with straight teeth and hair that fell just right.
He was thinking of what it would be like to kiss her but quickly pushed that thought away from his mind, reminding himself that 1. That was gross and 2. This was Kagome he was thinking about, one of his best friends. He would never do with her what he had seen on some of those movies he had snuck into.
They turned to each other, as if to ask a question and both blushed as their noses collided. He took a deep breath filling himself with her scent and for the first time in his life he saw her as beautiful, her cobalt eyes staring deep into his gold ones.
Then out of no where she felt lips pressed against hers, hands over hers, and she realized this was her first kiss. Even better the most beautiful guy in school was kissing her.
He pulled away quickly, not knowing what had made him do that. She just smelled so good and he couldn't help it.
He stood up quickly and brushed himself off. "Feh that was just as gross as i thought it'd be." He held back a flinch when he saw her pained expression.
He turned and with an excuse of a family emergency turn and ran away from her, getting as far away as possible before stopping.
She just sat there stunned the blush still creeping up her face. How dare he kiss her then tell her she was disgusting. He made her so mad. She stood up and stormed into the house making some excuse to her mother about homework and skipping dinner tonight before rushing up to her room and punching her pillow into oblivion.
*end flashback*
The older Kagome smiled at the memory, what naive children they had been. Who'd of thought that in just a few short years they would be living together, then falling in love. She chuckled sadly and ran her hand over the rough bark one last time. Her mind flashed to the treasure Inuyasha had left with her before he left and she remembered it was time to go.
************************
Inuyasha stretched, it was good to be home. He smelled his mothers home cookies in the oven and sighed happily, definitely good to be home. He didn't realize how much he missed her chocolate chip cookies, the best in the world in his opinion.
He stepped out of the shower and threw on a pair of boxers and jeans and quickly towel dried his hair. He could barely stop himself from drooling as he thought of biting into that soft, chocolaty cookie that he hadn't had since Christmas. He was glad him and his father were finally able to make amends, meaning he could come back home and his father even gave him a good position in one of the families many businesses.
His heart twisted in two and he got a bitter look on his face when he thought of one of the reasons he hadn't really wanted to come back here. God he was such an idiot when he was a kid, he should of seen it from her point of view. But no he had to be selfish.
Grinning to himself he rushed down the stairs and kissed his mothers cheek then hurried into the kitchen to nab a couple of cookies on his way out. Biting down into one of them he moaned with pleasure as he threw on his sweatshirt and a pair of tennis shoes. He grabbed the keys to his truck and hopped into the cab and took another bite out of a cookie. God it was good to be home.
********************************
She ran into the house, how could she be so forgetful. Maybe it was because of the day, the day he left her for a new life. 'Well i hope he's happy being alone, me on the other hand i couldn't be happier without him.' She ran out and jumped into her old beat up bug and pulled out of the driveway almost colliding with a large truck.
She honked her horn angrily and climbed out of the car only to freeze when she saw golden eyes peering at her through the windshield. 'Oh god this can't be happening, why in all hells is this happening to me? Today of all days damnit damnit damnit.' She glared at him as he climbed out of his car and walked over to her, a serious look on his face.
'Oh gods did he learn? Surely his mother didn't tell him she promised me she wouldn't.' She felt the tears well up in her eyes for the second time that day and quickly got back into her car revved the engine and went around his truck speeding off. She looked into the rear view mirror relieved to see he wasn't following. She drove trying to find out what was going on when she suddenly realized she had passed her destination by about two blocks.
She did a U-Turn and drove back pulling into the pre-school parking lot and getting out locking her door. All she could think was that she had to get her and go, get away from here. 'We can go spend the night at Sango's, that's it I'll call mom explain go her what's going on and tell her me and Inutasha will be home as soon as i know it's safe.' With grim determination the went into the school.
Just as she was turning the corner a white/silver blur collided against her legs, making her almost lose her balance. With a grin she reached down and picked up her daughter, tweaking one of the white canine ears atop her head. All of her features came from her father, except for the cobalt blue eyes she had gotten from her mother.
The young girl smiled a grin and Kagome realized she was missing one of her fangs. With a grin she started tickling the girl. "I see my little girl lost a tooth today open wide so mommy can see." She obliged and Kagome acted like she was staring deep into her mouth, making a few hmms and ooohs like doctors do. With a sad sigh she looked back into her daughters eyes. "We're going to have to do surgery to take out the rest of the teeth."
The girls eyes widened and she stared at the older woman with horror on her face. She quickly clamped her mouth shut and said something that sounded like 'No they're my teeth.' Kagome just chuckled and started tickling her daughter again he howled with laughter.
"Mommy we got to paint today." The four year old put her hands out to show they were smeared with blue and red paint. Kagome looked down and groaned seeing her favorite t-shirt was smeared with it to.
"Then my tooth fell out and there was blood and the teacher said that I'm becoming a big girl now." She reached into her pocket and pulled at the tiny fang, not as sharp as her fathers but still a fang. "Then i smelled you mommy and i came running out here even though Mrs. Kaede told me to wait but i just couldn't wait I had to see my mommy" She wrapped her arms tightly around her mothers neck and buried her face in her chest.
Kagome grinned and saw the teacher watching them, she waved getting a return wave and turned heading back out to their car.
Once she got Inutasha safely buckled in her child's seat crossed over to the drivers side and climbed into, starting the car and backing out. All the panic she had was washed away by her daughters enthusiasm but now it all came rushing back to her. Pulling out of the parking lot she headed for Sangos, and what she hoped was the safest place for her daughter at the moment.
