Kagome walked under the tree where she had gone before, and looked out to the lake, with the glowing sky behind the mountain view. It was early in the morning, so the sun was just starting to rise over the horizon.

Inu-Yasha quietly walked up behind Kagome, but even then she could hear him.

"Inu-Yasha," she began stopping Inu-Yasha, "maybe...maybe I should go home."

"But..why?" he asked, afraid of her answer.

She turned around quickly to face Inu-Yasha, and she had tears running down her face. That expression dumbfounded Inu-Yasha. He didn't know what to do. So he just stood there and listened to her.

"Because!" she shouted. "Because...I don't want you to get hurt because of me anymore. All I have done sense I meet you was cause trouble for you...I don't want anything like this to happen again...so I though that it would be best for me to leave..." she then looked down at her feet.

"But I don't want you to - -"

"Why shouldn't I leave?! I don't do any good anyway!"

"Because..." he stopped because he did not know how to tell her—how to tell her that he loves her. Without thinking, he stepped up to her and but his hands on her shoulder a bent down and gently kissed her on the lips. Kagome was shocked at first, but then finally calmed down. What lasted only few seconds, had seemed hours. The sunrise reflecting in the lake, cherry blossom petals blowing in the soft wind, and Inu-Yasha and Kagome kissing; a beautiful sight.

Inu-Yasha lifted his head, and looked at Kagome. Both cheeks of glowing red.

"That's why..." he said quietly.

For a long time they sat there just thinking of what happened, but then Inu- Yasha broke the silence.

"Uhh..." he said stuttering "I guess we should be getting back to camp."

"Yeah, I think you're right." She agreed.

Inu-Yasha started back into the woods, but Kagome still stood there. She looked over at the carving she had made earlier that read "I + K" she then and looked up at the blossom that hadn't bloom yet, and saw that it had bloomed. She smiled and then looked back at Inu-Yasha who was just entering the woods.

"C'mon Kagome! Its time to go!"

"Ok!" she ran to Inu-Yasha and they entered the woods together, which they will always be. -THE END-
