A/N: Sorry bout not writing for awhile. My mom grounded me from the comp for grades. Damn Spanish. Well anyways I am really sorry and with that said on with the story! :)

Kagome stayed in her room all afternoon. She was reading a book for english when there was a tapping at the door. "Come in" Kagome said and the person who walked in was Inuyasha.

"Hi" he said as he sat down next to her.

"Hey" Kagome replied.

"Are you okay?" Inuyasha said "you seemed upset earlier."

"Yea I'm fine" Kagome lied "don't worry about me."

"I have to worry about you" Inuyasha said.

"No you don't, I'm just fine see" Kagome said plastering on a smile.

"I think your lying your ass off" Inuyasha responded.

"Why do you say that?" Kagome said challengingly.

"Because that is the fakest smile I've ever seen" he said and sat down next to her "now tell me what's wrong before I make you tell."

"Nothing is wrong" Kagome said "everything is back to normal, and I'm happy again."

"Is it what I said earlier?" Inuyasha said still trying to get the truth out of her.

"What?" she replied.

"When I was saying that you abandoned us" he said "you know that I was just joking around right?"

"Yea of course" Kagome replied.

"Okay just as long as you know" Inuyasha responded. Inuyasha knew that she was still lying, but he just left it alone because if he pushed it he would probably get sat. "Well its almost time for the sun to set" Inuyasha said to break the ice.

"There's a new moon tonight?" Kagome asked.

"Yea" Inuyasha said "so there's a long night ahead."

"But you won't have to worry" Kagome said "Since Naraku's dead he won't be able to attack you."

"Still..." Inuyasha replied "there are other demons who want my head."

"Yea..." Kagome replied. 'Hopefully no demons show up tonight' she thought 'I really don't want to deal with demons tonight.'

Kagome notice that the room was starting to get dark. She walked over to a candle and lit it. Then she turned around to find Inuyasha in his human form. "Wow that was fast" she commented walking back to her bed and sitting down next to him.

"That's how it is..." he responded. 'Damn it" Inuyasha thought 'I hate being human, I feel so defenseless..' With these thoughts in his mind Inuyasha placed his head on Kagome's shoulder.

Kagome was surprised by this at first, but remembered he had a lot more emotions active in his human state. The two didn't stay like this for long though because someone came knocking at the door.

Kagome opened the door and found Sango standing there. "Hi Kagome" she said "I wanted to catch up with you, or are you busy?" she added when she saw Inuyasha.

"I was just leaving" Inuyasha said getting up "I've got some things to do, we'll talk later." With this he left and Sango came in.

"Is everything okay?" Sango asked.

"Yea, it's fine why?" Kagome replied.

"You don't have to tell me why but it seems like your sad about something" Sango stated.

"It's nothing...It's just that..." Kagome stammered.

"Kagome" Sango said "You don't have to worry I'm your friend, you can tell me anything."

"Its just that I feel like I abandoned all of you" Kagome finally blurted out as tears started to form in her eyes "I left and I didn't come back until now..."

"Don't worry about it" Sango said soothingly "You had a life before any of us here came into it, you shouldn't have to give that up. You have family and friends there who love you too."

"I know but when I went back there I felt out of place, I wanted to be here but I had forced myself to stay in my time..." Kagome said "I need to choose whether I'm going to stay here or go back to my time for good."

"You don't have to-"

"Yes I do" Kagome said interrupting Sango "If I don't I'll be torn, I need a regular life and I can get it in both times so I have to choose..."

"Well if you feel that you need to I won't argue with you, but just please don't make a decision too fast because this needs some serious thought" Sango said.

"Lets stop talking about this its getting me upset" Kagome said.

"Ok so anything new happen lately?" Sango asked. She figured that it would be safe to talk about Kagome's time if it wasn't about the decision that she felt like she had to make.

Kagome realized that she didn't tell Sango about what happened the night before with her and Inuyasha. 'Should I tell her?' Kagome questioned herself 'Of course she's your friend.'

"Ok spill because I can tell something happened by the huge blush on your face" Sango said breaking Kagome out of her thoughts.

"Well..." Kagome said trying to tease Sango.

"Oh fine then I see how it is yours just going to leave me hanging for the next couple of days aren't you!" Sango said impatiently.

"Inuyasha told me that he loved me" Kagome blurted out leaving Sango in a sense of shock.

"Really?" Sango said "Did anything else happened?"

"We kissed and that was about it" Kagome said.

"It's about time" Sango said "There was tension there for as long as I can remember..."

"What?" Kagome replied.

"Everyone knew that you two loved each other, but the truth coming out was a different story" Sango said.

"Really now?" Kagome said teasingly "I guess that were going to have to work on that tension between you and Miroku now..." With this comment Sango started to turn every shade of red.

"What?!" Sango said "There is no tension there he's just a perverted monk."

"Common Sango" Kagome said "everyone can see the tension between you two."

"I assure you that there is no tension" Sango said "he's just a perverted monk who is interested in every girl he sees."

"Sango he shows the most interest in you, and he cares for you a lot" Kagome said "he doesn't really show that for any other girls."

"Then you must be blind" Sango said.

"No your the one who's blind" Kagome said. When she said this Sango didn't reply she just sat there.

"Do you think that he really cares about me?" Sango finally said breaking the silence.

"I'm positive" Kagome said.

The conversation went on like this for awhile. Sango kept asking Kagome if Miroku really did care about him and she had finally believed it after awhile. They both realized that it was late and finally decided to go to bed. Sango had left and Kagome couldn't sleep so she went outside and walked around the shrine grounds.

The rain had stopped a little while after Kagome had gone into her room earlier that day, so everything was basically dry now. She walked around until she found Inuyasha laying in the grass falling asleep. Kagome decided to go lay beside him and see how long it would take for him to realize she was there, but the plan messed up when she stepped on a stick and it snapped.

Inuyasha stood up and found out that it was Kagome behind him. "It's late what are you doing out here?" Inuyasha said.

"I couldn't sleep so I decided to take a walk" Kagome replied "then I came across you out here."

"Oh" Inuyasha said and laid down again. Kagome came over and laid down next to him.

"So did you do what you needed to do?" Kagome asked him. There was silence for a moment.

"Yea..." He said when he realized what she was talking about. He didn't need to do anything he just figured that he should let Kagome and Sango talk since they hadn't seen each other in a month.

"So did anything happen while I was away?" Kagome asked. She finally started to feel the guilt lift off of her earlier when she had talked to Sango.

"Nothing important" Inuyasha said "Are you still feeling guilty about what I said?"

"No..." Kagome responded but that didn't convince Inuyasha.

"I was seriously just joking" he said propping himself up on his elbows "I don't want to hurt you."

"You don't hurt me..." Kagome said "Somehow you make the pain go away when I'm with you. I actually couldn't stand being in my time when I went back, I wanted to be here so bad but I forced myself to stay."

"Why?" Inuyasha asked.

"Because I felt that you probably didn't want me around anymore, that I was useless since the jewel was put back together..." Kagome said.

"That isn't how I feel, you know that now right?" Inuyasha said.

"Yea" Kagome said turning to him and giving him a real smile "I know that now."

"Good because I wouldn't be able to live with myself knowing that I had hurt you" he said.

"I know" Kagome said and wrapped her arms around him, and he did the same. Then before Kagome knew it Inuyasha's lips were on top of hers. The kiss was soft and Kagome had decided to deepen it, Inuyasha had been surprised by this but didn't object to it they both explored each others mouths and noted every detail in the back of their minds. But this was stopped when a scream was heard from inside the shrine.

A/N: There was a lot of dialogue huh? To much? Oh the ending? Yea I just had to leave all of you in suspense who knows maybe if I'm nice I'll post the next chapter up at the same time as this one. Well I probably will so don't worry. later dayz! :)
