Chapter 5: A Simple Kiss
InuYasha got over Kikyo's death rather quickly. He had ended up hating Kikyo, because she still wanted to kill him after she knew her true enemy. InuYasha would never forget Kikyo, though, his very first love.
Finally, nothing stood between Kagome and InuYasha.
"Kagome," Rei was saying. Only Rei, Kagome, and Sango were present."You know you should have more time alone with InuYasha. You and he are perfect."
"We are not!" Said Kagome indignantly.
"But Kikyo isn't between you and InuYasha anymore," Sango said.
So, Kagome formulated a plan. She would walk to the ell alone, wearing the Jewel. InuYasha would "worry about the Jewel" and follow.
Kagome walked into the forest unescorted. InuYasha followed, proving himself to be as predictable as ever.
Kagome stopped at the well and sat down. InuYasha landed in front of her.
"What were you thinking? Shikon Jewel!" he yelled, looking like he was almost dead with worry.
"InuYasha," Kagome said, totally changing the subject without warning. "InuYasha, why do you keep me around?"
"Huh?" InuYasha backed away, barely, caught off guard.
"You heard me. We've defeated Naraku and completed the Jewel. You don't need me anymore. Why haven't you stolen the Jewel and transformed into a full-demon? Why haven't you gotten rid of me?"
InuYasha had to think fast. "Um, well, you see, your arrow thing is useful, and you would know if I tried to steal the Jewel."
"You and I both know you're lying."
"Am not!"
"Fine. Sit. I'm going home."
InuYasha was pressed to the ground, but he pulled Kagome down with him.
He kissed her.
And kissed her again.
Kagome just let it happen. Then, she fainted with shock, there in InuYasha's arms. Maybe InuYasha was more perceptive than she had thought.
