Kagome walked through the forest. "I bet he is with Sango and Miroku." She continued on." I wish I knew where they lived." She walked on decided to visit Kaede's old village. "I will go on from there."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That's what you plan to do? Are you positive you want to do that?" Miroku asked him.

"Yes that is why I am here. Now, can I have your jewel shards?" InuYasha replied.

"Sure." Sango answered handing him their small supply of jewel shards.

"Will you be leaving again?" Miroku added.

"I guess. I want to get this over with." InuYasha sighed.

"Visit again real soon." Sango smiled.

"We will." He smiled back.

Then he left, running into the forest.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome finally saw Kaede's village. She remembered many memories from that village. She sat down to think and then saw InuYasha running toward her. She waved to him and he stopped in front of her. He had a strange look on his face, then without a word walked back toward the well. She followed closely behind him. They both approached the well silently then InuYasha grabbed Kagome's arm and jumped in. Kagome stared at InuYasha, he looked worried and angry at the same time. Kagome began to get worried also. When they got back to Kagome's time InuYasha asked Kagome for the shards that she had. Kagome gave them to him then he jumped back into the well.

Kagome looked over the edge and yelled, "NOOO INUYASHA!" with tears streaming down her face.  She collapsed to the ground crying. Thinking she would never see him again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome returned to her room. She laid on her bed crying her eyes out. She eventually cried herself to sleep.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That night as the house stood still a young man approached Kagome's window. The window was left open and the curtains moved slowly in the blowing wind. Kagome lay near the window in bed. She was fast asleep, curled up in her sheets with tears still on her cheek. The mysterious boy climbed through the window and stood over Kagome's bed. He wiped a tear from her eye and chased it down her cheek. He then leaned forward and kissed her forehead. Then he exited the room and closed the door behind him. When he did, Kagome moved in her sleep and the words, "Inu…Yasha." left her thin lips.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning her mother woke her telling her that her tutor would be there soon. She silently got dressed. She was afraid she would start crying again. She listened to her brother's videogame which was turned up loudly. She also heard her brother shouting and another person growling. Kagome thought it was her grandfather losing again. She walked out of her room and down the hallway to the bathroom. She passed Souta's room and looked in to see that he was not playing grandpa but someone else. Kagome started hard at the other person's back. They had long black hair and were wearing jeans and a red sweatshirt.

"Do I know you?" Kagome asked them. They slowly turned around and Kagome put one hand over her mouth.

"What don't you recognize me?" The boy asked her.

"I thought I would never see you again!"

The boy got up and walked toward her, "Now why would I do that?" He put his arm around her.

Tears filled her eyes." I don't know. Just don't scare me like that." A tear fell down her cheek and onto his chest

"I won't." Then he kissed her.
