Chapter 3

the young boy, who also had ravened colored hair, sat in his room. He was playing with some sort of small video game.

It was a game boy.

"Souta dear, Can you help me down here?!" A voice ran from downstairs. It was his mother.

"Yeah Mom, I'll be down there in a minute." With that he pressed a button on top of the small technology and it shut down, and then ran down the stairs.

Souta was 11 years old. He didn't start school yet, so he got to stay home and be a brat all day. He was the young brother of Kagome. He especially loved hanging out with her best friend. Miroku. He always thought him how to play sports; he really wanted to like Miroku.

When he had reached the kitchen he found his mother decorating something.

"Souta, where is your sister?" she asked.

The boy looked around, and then shrugged. "I don't know?"

He then noticed what his mother was decorating, it was a plain cake. It still looked yummy to him.

"Wow, even if you never decorated it, it still looks good!" Souta chirped and his mom, Ms. Higurashi [ -- is that right?] just giggled.

"Sorry, you have to wait until Wednesday to eat it." His mother said. Souta just pouted, and then sighed.

"Yeah, I know..." he said while he watched his mom use a green filling to decorate the top of the cake. It said...

"Happy 16 birthdays to my beloved---" before he could finish reading it, the doorbell rang and distracted him.

"Souta," His mom smiled at him "could you get that please, maybe it's your sister."

Souta nodded and ran towards the front door. When he had opened the door he found Miroku, with his sister sleeping on his back?

"HEY MIROKU!" he shrieked in joy, "why is my sister on your back?" But Miroku quietly put one finger on his lips signaling for him to be quiet. Souta covered his mouth with both hands.

"Shh. Souta, your sisters sleeping. Let's try not to wake her up, okay?" He said softly. Souta nodded.

Souta stepped to the side so Miroku could make his way in the house, when Miroku had carried Kagome into the living room, Souta followed him.

Slowly, Souta watched Miroku laid Kagome on the couch without a single beep. When Miroku had laid her down he stood from his knees and continued to walk towards the door.

"Miroku," Souta whispered, "Where are you going?"

Miroku chuckled "I got to go home." Souta only let his shoulders sag.

"Awe"

When Souta had walked Miroku to the front door; his mother came out the kitchen and saw Miroku.

"Miroku!" he said happily, and she just smiled "I didn't know you were here."

Miroku nodded "Ms. Higurashi, I just came in to drop off your daughter."

"My goodness Miroku, you knew me all your life and you still call me that. Call me, mom." She smiled bigger.

Miroku smiled back. "Thanks." He whispered under his breath and turned to walk out the door. But she only grabbed his hand so he wouldn't leave. She shook her head.

"No Miroku, would you like to stay for dinner? I wouldn't take no for an answer."

Souta's eye lit up. "Yes Miroku please, stay!" he begged by tugging onto his other arm his mother wasn't holding. It was not fair, it was two against one.

Miroku sighed in defeat "Sure, why not. Thank you." Souta's mom nodded happily while Souta shrieked in joy, but suddenly covered his mouth again when he almost forgot his sister was sleeping.

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

After a few hours, Kagome woke up.

Miroku and Kagome stood in her room. Miroku was sitting on her bed playing with her fat cat. Kagome on the other hand was on her computer.

"I'll be right back," Kagome said, when Miroku looked up he noticed Kagome in front of him with a towel in her hand "I'm going to take a shower."

"Cool." Miroku smiled. Kagome only pointed a violent finger at him.

"Don't you dare come sneaking in there." She glared at him. Miroku just smiled nervously and nodded.

"What makes you think I would do such a thing?" Miroku asked.

Kagome giggled and turned on her heel. "I don't need to answer that" she joked and walked out the door. But before closing her room she turned around to look at Miroku.

"Thanks for staying for dinner. I'm happy we could hang out more." She smiled and shut the door quietly.

"I'm happier than you'll ever know." He whispered to himself.

He looked around Kagome's room. It was so neat and so clean. The walls were painted a nice color of baby green. And she had cute posters of dogs and cats on the walls. When he turned his head to look at those things on her cabinet, he noticed sort of frames.

He stood up and walked over to it and saw pictures, there were pictures so her and her family, and just a few of her and Souta.

Then when he got to the middle, in the biggest frame was... Him and Kagome?

He was shocked. He didn't remember taking this picture with her. It was a picture of Kagome and Miroku, when they were little. Maybe about the age of 8, when they first became best friends.

::Flash back::

"Hello Miroku," a woman's voice said in front of him. He never looked up, he was too shy.

"You don't have to be shy; I'm a good friend of Mushin so I'm not a stranger." She smiled while she lifted his face, tucking his bangs back from his eyes. When she did she noticed he had a cute smile on.

"You could call me, Ms. Higurashi." She smiled back.

Miroku opened his cute little mouth to talk "M..Ms. Higu...rashi?" he struggled with her name the first time. Ms. Higurashi chuckled.

"Close enough." She grabbed his hand and walked him towards the mountains view.

"It's okay; we are just going to take a picture. Right now Mushin isn't here, but we want you to take a picture with us."

Miroku blinked a few times "We...?"

She nodded "Yes, we. Me and my daughter."

When she had almost reached the top of the Mountain View, there were plenty of other tourist taking pictures of people, and the view. When Ms. Higurashi stopped she bent down to Miroku's level and pointed straight. He was confused at what she was trying to point out, but suddenly noticed what she was pointing at.

It was a little girl.

She faced the other way, so he only saw her back. The wind blew at the little girl that was looking over the mountain edge, looking out at the view. She wore a baby green dress, and a cute little stray hat. She had short ravened hair that reached her shoulders, He thought she was cute. [Is it love at first sight?]

"Kagome," her mother called her. 'Kagome...'

"This is Miroku, my friend's son. Well adopted son." Kagome turned and faced Miroku. She really was beautiful to him.

She smiled at him. He was blushing. "Hi Miroku, I'm Kagome." She said grabbing his hand and pulling him towards the mountain edge to watch the view with her. "Come and watch the view with me?" she asked. Miroku nodded.

It took Kagome a while to make him talk, but she did somehow.

"Miroku..." Her sweet voice called him.

When he turned his head, he found himself face to face with her. And their hands still laced with each other.

"I really like you..." she said, not 'really' knowing the meaning of her true words, but he knew his own.

"I..." he finally spoke "Like you too." He started to blush. But Kagome was a sweet girl, she only giggled. That's when he noticed he really liked someone, when he noticed he really liked her.

"Alright you cute little kids. Come and let me take a picture of you two." A voice came from behind them. Sadly, Kagome let go of his hand to turn around and run towards her mother.

"Come on Miroku!" she called him over "Take a picture with me."

Miroku shyly walked over to her. He was positioned to be so close to her.

"Alright Kagome, Show Miroku how to make this picture perfect" Ms. Higurashi winked. Kagome nodded.

While her mother took a few minutes of fixing the camera Kagome asked Miroku a few questions.

"Hey Miroku, If you don't mind me asking, your adopted? Why?" she was curious.

Miroku shrugged and he finally started to talk in a conversation with her. He felt as if, she was there for him... anytime he needed someone to talk to. "Because, I don't have any parents" He said sadly. Kagome awed.

"Wha...what happened to them?" she just had to ask "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to though."

"No I want to..." he sighed "They died in a car accident, a month ago." He tried not to look as sad as he really was.

But Kagome could tell he was depressed, ever since his parents were gone. She figured something sad happened since he didn't talk much.

"It's okay," she held onto his hand again and smiled "I'm here when ever you need me. I could be your best friend"

Miroku looked up and smiled softly. "Thanks." His little voice said.

"Alright, finally the camera is working now." Her mother said.

Her mother held up a hand telling them to smile "ready, One... two..." her mother counted.

Kagome quickly narrowed her eyes to look at Miroku; she hurt a little because she felt bad for him. She wouldn't mind to be his best friend for life.
Slowly, while listening to her mothers counting she got an idea. She grinned.

"Ready, one...two... three!" her mother snapped the photo.

:: End flash back:

Miroku smiled and remembered that day. She was the reason his heart became pure again. She was his only true friend. She accepted him for him, not like the other kids who didn't bother to talk to him when he was little, just because he didn't have a real family.

"Kagome..." he looked down to his hands with the photograph in his hands, the photograph with the two of them. Do you know what the picture of them was?

:: Another flash back:

before her mother counted to three she waited for the right time. When her mother had counted to three she turned her head and leaned forward, planting a Kiss on his cheek.

He was blushing so much. When she released from him she was blushing too.

"When I said, I really like you... I meant it. And I always will." She held his hand tighter and affectionately. "I really do like you, Miroku."

:: End flash back:
