***Disclaimer***: I do not own InuYasha
A summer to remember
Chapter 14: Is liking someone that tough?
"InuYasha! What are you doing!?" Sango screamed.
InuYasha ignored her as he was walking towards the beach. He had a determined look on his face. Miroku ran up to InuYasha to try to stop him. InuYasha lifted up his hand and hit Miroku on the head. Miroku fell to the ground and Sango ran over to him.
'How uncaring and selfish!' Sango thought to herself. She looked up closer to where InuYasha was walking to and saw something. It was a familiar figure with long black hair. From being so far away Sango couldn't see the persons face.
InuYasha had a huge smile on his face now. The girl swung her hair and walked toward InuYasha. She put a fake smile on her face and began her flirting. "HI! How are you?" She asked acting like a bally girl. "It's SO NICE to see you again. What's your name? Mine's Kikyo. I told you that already."
InuYasha was spinning around from Kikyo's astounding wordage and how she didn't take a breath while talking. 'Oh boy. This is gonna be a LONG day.' InuYasha rolled his eyes. He didn't know where to start from her long speech. "Uh...I'm InuYasha."
"That's a nice name! I like it. It reminds me of a dog. You look like a dog too. I mean, you're so cute. I mean, you're really hot. I mean-" Kikyo rambled on again.
"Uh...thanks" InuYasha felt embarrassed and scratched the back of his head. 'Oi vey. I don't care how annoying this girl is, Kagome left me and she deserves it.'
"Anywho! Let's get something to eat. No, lets go swimming. I LOVE swimming! It's so fun, it's good exercise too," Kikyo squeezed InuYasha's arm fat. "You need to work out mister!"
InuYasha yelped and pulled away his arm. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!"
Kikyo began to fake cry. "You....you...you don't...you don't want me to care for you? I was just suggesting. That's all!"
InuYasha felt bad yet wanted to punch in her face for being so annoying. "I...I...I'm sorry. Don't cry, I'll go swimming with you."
"REALLY!?" Kikyo squealed grabbing InuYasha's arms and pulling him towards the ocean.

Kagome and Sesshomaru finally stopped half a mile down the boardwalk near the rocky section of the beach. Sesshomaru picked Kagome up and threw her over his shoulders as he jumped onto the boulders. Kagome squirmed and yelled as she hit Sesshomaru's back.
"PUT ME DOWN YOU BRUTE!!" Kagome screamed again.
"As you wish." Sesshomaru calmly said carefully putting down Kagome.
Kagome tried to jump off the rocks when Sesshomaru spoke again. "Look." He pointed out into the ocean.
There was a group of dolphins swimming by. Every so often you could see a dolphin or two jump out of the water. Also, the high sun was reflecting off the foaming waves making the scene more beautiful than ever. Kagome felt softened by the sight and stood next to Sesshomaru. He looked at Kagome and smiled. "This is very beautiful, just like you."
Kagome raised an eyebrow. "Huh?"
"You are what he says. He wasn't lying."
"What do you mean?"
"I knew who you were from the start, or at least I did, which I did. Last night when InuYasha came home he was so happy; happier than he had ever been in a long while. As we acted back at the café, that is how we act most of the time, but last night was a once in a life time event. We sat on our deck looking at the stars while he described a lovely young girl with long silky black hair, I only assume he meant you. I felt proud for the guy because he couldn't get a girl if his life depended on it. I mean, I've had plenty of girls in my time, it's time he had his. That's how I knew about you before was InuYasha talking about him. Our meeting was surely by fate for us to meet. Do you realize that you're the first girl who didn't try to run away from him at all? That's not all he likes about you. For the rest you'll have to ask him yourself." Sesshomaru finished and sat at the edge of the rock.
Kagome hung her head down and sat next to him. She moved her legs back and forth, feeling uneasy from what Sesshomaru said. 'So InuYasha really does have feelings for me. So why was he acting all defensive over me?' The thought struck Kagome in the head. She finally realized. "So he really does like me after all? So what about you?"
"Yes he does, very much. As for me, I just wanted to see the beauty he described in person." Sesshomaru picked up a small pebble and skipped it across the water.
Kagome giggled and picked up a pebble too to try her luck at it. She threw it and it just plopped into the water. They both laughed. "I have to get going. I don't want to leave Sango worrying much about me. It was nice talking to you Sesshomaru." Kagome said getting up.
"Yes it was. I hope our paths will meet again." Sesshomaru replied still looking at the water.
Kagome jumped down off the rocks and started down the boardwalk. She walked at a slow easygoing pace until thoughts flooded her mind. What if InuYasha totally left for good? What if InuYasha is still sitting there? What if InuYasha found another girl? What if-
Kagome quickened her stride and began to run, dodging people and random animals along the way. The thoughts became greater as the seconds turned to minutes, haunting her all the way. 'I hope I'm not too late.'
When Kagome turned on the bend of the walkway, she saw InuYasha down on the beach. She slowed up and walked the rest of the way towards him. Kagome went to go down the wooden steps but stopped when she heard InuYasha and another voice. She looked up and wanted to cry.
