To kya and Die Kikyo Die: Nope. No sequel, no epilouge. I refuse to do those things anymore because I can never get the right feeling to make one after a story is "supposed" to be finished. -shrugs- Then again, you never know..
To my 400th-reviewer, kirs, THANK YOU! Your my new best friend.
To intermezzo: Hey.. I know you! Your from A-K! Thankies much for taking the time to read my story, I'm glad you liked it!
To ChokeOnBlood: ...first off, I would like to say, "WTF?!" This person claims that the one plagerizer did not plagerize my story. I think they did, all that plot is mine, the freaking titles are almost exactly alike, and the beginning of the story is almost exactly like mine! I'm sorry, but, your blind if you can't see that.
Anyways, to people who have no idea what I'm talking about, in MY opinion, and mostly other's, this person plagerized my story, "Soakin' Up The Sun". The link is at the bottom of my profile.
To everyone, thankies much for reviewing.
And on with the story.

After tomorrow, would be the big contest. Who would win? He never would
know until the day rolled around. For once, he didn't want the days to
go by fast, he wanted them to go by slowly. Did he still want to go visit
Kikyou? Did he even love Kikyou anymore?
No.
There it was, planted in his mind. Finally, he knew the truth. He didn't
love her anymore. But, who did he love? Someone or something had taken
over the spot Kikyou once settled in.. but he didn't know. He didn't know
the truth that was staring him right in the face. That was right under
his nose!
Well, he would think about that in the morning. Now, it was time to
get some sleep, and have the last day of relaxation tomorrow before the
contest.
He held Kagome tighter to his body.
"Goodnight Kagome.."

Soakin' Up The Sun
Session Thirteen
No More Words
Probably, probably we, learn as we live,
And then we, forget as we live.
Things with a beginning, will end someday,
if you can go to the next, putting everything.
What can I tell you? Only being such a small self,
I won't tell you more now, because the words are so weak against
time.
If this world, the winners and losers,
if it will split into two,
I want to be the loser, I want to be a loser always.
Probably, probably we, are beautiful so much, we are sad,
as time passes, we, get contaminated so much, we are sad.

"So.. this is it, right before the contest, ne?" Miroku said to Sango,
worried about this whole thing.
"Yes.. I guess it is.." Sango replied, holding onto Miroku for support.
She wasn't very keen about this whole idea, and knew some how, Kagome would
get hurt in the end. She didn't want to see her hurt anymore, she was already
very confused.
Just like all first loves are. Confused, tormenting, and leave you crying
afterwards. Its something you never forget, and it stays with you always.
You always think, 'Why? What did I do wrong? Do I still love him/her?
I do.. I'd still do anything for him/her.' Yeah, that's how it was,
and Kagome was going to be no exception.
Unless, she was one of those rare girl's, who only have one love, because
they stay together forever. But, in truth, it was rare. No one 'stayed
together forever,' on their first love, it just wasn't 'right.'
Sango sighed, as did Miroku.
Sango, was one of those rare girls. Miroku and her decided that they
would go home and get married after this trip was over, because they knew
they loved each other dearly, and would give anything to stay together.
The breeze blew on them lightly, pushing them up against each other.
"I hope Inuyasha and Kagome are okay.." Miroku muttered, looking out
into the distance.
"Their fine, they just went off for some competition, that's all. Nothing
to worry..-" Sango was cut off when she saw Kouga walking to Kagome's direction.
"-... I take that back... I think we should play a little game of, 'I
Spy!'" Sango suggested, smiling weirdly.
"Deal."

"I win, for the millionth TIME!"
"No, you DON'T! I won fair and square, your just a sore loser, wench!"
"Well, fine, but I'm not buying you any cotton candy! I don't care about
the stupid bet!"
"I want my cotton candy! Do you remember when you screwed up my first
one?"
"Um.. but I don't have any money.."
"Well, make some, or steal it!"
"Okay." Kagome walked up behind Inuyasha, and slowly slipped out his
wallet. She took a five dollar bill, and slipped it innocently back into
his pocket. She began to walk away.
"My money doesn't count." Inuyasha said, grinning from his position.
"I hate you.."
"I'm glad to know the feeling's mutual."
Kagome walked off to the beach, and threw her clothes on the ground.
She had her red bikini on, and she wasn't going to waste it! She dived
into the ocean water, coming out with her whole body soggy wet. She smiled
at the cold-ness of the water, and swam around joyously. That is, until
something pinched her. Wait, pinched her?
She all off a sudden was pulled to the ocean floor with a heave, and
was underwater very quickly. She thrashed about, trying to get out of the
grip of whatever was holding her. She felt around for something, and felt
silk. Something very silky. And it was long too. Now, it was currently
tickling her, and she was gasping for air because she was laughing so hard.
She was pulled back up to the surface and laid down gently on the towel
she had brought.
Inuyasha, with his long silky hair, was tickling her. "S..stop it!"
She tried to say, between all the giggles.
"No.. this is payback for no cotton candy!" He said, still tickling
her, his hands moving around her stomach. They were having a good time,
and laughs, then Kouga walked over.
"You! What are you doing to my woman?" Kouga screamed at Inuyasha. Inuyasha
backed off Kagome, as she wiped the tears from her eye's from laughing
so much.
"She's not your woman!" Inuyasha screamed back at Kouga, ready to start
a fight.
"Well, she's not yours either!" That one, hurt. Inuyasha felt a very
painful pang in his heart, but he didn't know why. Kouga and him argued
for the next ten minutes, Miroku and Sango already coming out of their
hiding spot and trying to stop everyone. Once again, Kagome got in the
middle, and pushed them apart.
"Stop it! Stop fighting!" She screamed. They both stopped and
looked over at her. "I don't exactly know why you two are fighting.. but
its getting old. Listen, Kouga, your nice, and you are a great friend,
but I can't love you the way you want me too.." Kagome said, weakly.
Kouga nodded, then she went on. She looked over at Inuyasha, arching
an eyebrow. "Honestly, I have no idea why the hell your fighting, you HATE
me." She said, firmly.
Inuyasha looked at her and closed in on her. "You think I hate you,
Kagome..?" He said, lightly brushing his lips over her ear.
Kagome stood there shocked, but what he said next, just made her get
mad at him. "Well.. your right." He walked away laughing, as Kouga now
closed in on Kagome.
"I don't hate you.. Kagome.." He leaned in, and kissed her fully on
the lip's. Her eye's widened, and Kouga was suddenly pushed over with full
force.
"DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!" A loud yell emitted from the now ultimately pissed
off Inuyasha. Even Sango and Miroku backed off at this point.
Kagome was shaking, and then she fell in the sand on her knees, her
eye's getting glossy. Her fists clenched together, as she screamed, "YOU
FILTHY FUCKING BASTARD!" She kicked Kouga, where no guy likes to be kicked,
and ran off.
Right to the ferris wheel that was on the board walk.
---
Sango gasped at realization of what was going on. Currently, Kouga was
lying on the ground, unconscious. Miroku was trying to calm Inuyasha down.
He couldn't do it. Sango put a hand over her mouth. "Oh.. my.."
Miroku and Inuyasha both looked at her and said in unison, "What?"
"Kagome's mad, because that was her first kiss." Sango said, eye's widening,
as did Miroku and Inuyasha's.
"I know where she went." Inuyasha said, simply, and then ran off. Miroku
and Sango smiled.
"He's growing up."
---
Kagome sat a top of the ferris wheel, looking out on the view below
her. She hugged herself, and cried. She didn't want something like that
to ever happen to her, it was like rape. She wanted to save her first kiss,
for someone she really trusted. Someone who cared for her, someone who
called to her.
Like Inuyasha.
She cried harder, and still didn't understand what this emotion was.
She hated that jerk, damnit! She would never... she could never... Her
train of thoughts were broken, when her ride was over, and she jumped out,
or, was about to get out anyway. She was pushed back in, and someone jumped
next to her. She managed a squeal, but the ride was already started again.
"Kagome.." Inuyasha spoke, turning her face to him. He gasped when he
saw her tears, and whipped them away with his thumb. "..don't cry. Please
don't cry.."
All in all, that made Kagome cry harder. She pushed her body up against
his chest, and cried her heart out. Now, she was crying for a different
reason. It was because he loved Kikyou, she had no chance in being his,
ever. He was going to win the contest, and go see Kikyou. After this trip,
he would forget about her, her name, her face, everything. She would be
nothing but a memory, from long ago.
That caused her to hug him tighter, and live for the moment. She took
a deep breath, and made a note on his scent. She touched his hair, and
would always remembered how silky it was. She looked into those golden
eye's of his, and would remember how soft they were, and how beautiful
they could be at nights. She remembered all the nights she slept next to
him, and being her protector. She touched his face, and would remember
how soft it felt, and how beautifully colored it was. She put a hand on
his chest, and would remember how muscular and hard it was, as realizing
his strength.
Inuyasha held her close, "Why... why are you crying..?" He said, so
gently, which reminded her that should would never hear his voice again,
either. That smooth, yet arrogant voice she would always long to hear.
It shouted insults, but gave the most touching comments.
"Because.. I'll never see you again.. I know this is awkward.. but,
Inuyasha.." She stopped and shook her head. "No, no. Never mind, let's
just enjoy our last day before the contest, ne?" Kagome tried so hard,
SO
hard to put on a smile, but she couldn't do it. Inuyasha just hugged her
closer.
"Kagome.. if fate has us to see each other, I'll embrace it with all
that's within me." Inuyasha said, burying his face into the crook of her
neck. "But, if not... why don't we alter reality?" He smiled, and she laughed
a little.
"Kagome.. if we never see each other again, I'll promise you one thing,
I'll never forget you.. ever.." He said, now putting his hand beneath her
chin and looking into her chocolate-brown orbs. "Never."
Kagome smiled, and leaned into him, putting her chin on his shoulder,
sitting in his lap. "Taisetsuna mono wa nanda?" She asked, smiling.
"What did you say?" Inuyasha asked, "That was Japanese, wasn't it?"
"Yeah, just testing you. You need to know your Japanese before going
to Tokyo." She stopped. "If you ever, find out what that means, answer
me. Okay?"
"Okay." Inuyasha said. "Kagome, its getting late, and tomorrow we have
the contest, so, do you think it would be wise to go down to the hotel
now?"
"Yeah.." She agreed, sadly.
"Smile."
"What?" She replied breathlessly as he looked into her eye's with such
happiness.
"Smile." He repeated again, giving her a warm smile.
She couldn't help but smile at his action, so she did. His gaze softened,
as he said, "That's the real Kagome."
---
Miroku and Sango were in Sango's room, while Inuyasha and Kagome were
in Inuyasha's room. They both had gotten pretty comfortable sleeping next
to each other now, on a count of the whole Miroku/Sango thing.
And, sleeping next to each other too. Kagome cuddled up next to him,
as Inuyasha turned out the lights and the silk satin sheets blew with the
wind. The moon put a glow into the room so they could see one another,
and look into their eye's. He rested the cover's over both of them, and
Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her, as did Kagome. They both smiled.
"So.. tomorrow.. is it, ne?" Inuyasha spoke, quietly.
"Yeah, it is.." Kagome said, regretfully.
"Kagome.. I wanted to tell you..-" He was cut off by her finger on his
lips.
"No more words." She said, cuddling up to him, and kissing his cheek.
"Goodnight, jerk."
"Goodnight, wench."
But, those three little words that Kagome had said, echoed through his
mind.
No more words.
