I do not own any of these characters; however, the story is mine.

Without You

Chapter 4; Amusement Park!

Inuyasha picked Kagome up at 10:00am sharp. He arrived wearing a black muscle shirt, and baggy blue jeans. He usually wore a hat, but since they were going to the amusement park it would just fly off during one of the rides.

Kagome was wearing dark blue, butt hugging jeans with a white, nicely fit t-shirt on. She also wore her favorite sneakers, which were black and white.

"You look nice." Inuyasha said, blushing a little.

Kagome blushed as well, "Thank you…and you too."

"Thank you…"

It was silent all the way to Sango's house. Sango and Miroku walked outside and waved at Inuyasha and Kagome and got inside the car.

"So…y'all ready for some fun" asked Miroku, who was wearing loose blue jeans, and a dark blue t-shirt.

"Yup" Kagome and Sango said in unison.

Inuyasha nodded but kept his eye on the wheel, he didn't want to crash with all his friends in the car. Besides, his brother would skin him alive if he even scratched the car, even though it was his. Why would his brother care?

It was about a 45 minute drive to the closest amusement park, but it was definitely worth it. Everyone's going to have a lot of fun, thought Inuyasha, especially Kagome.

Once they were there, he got out, walked over to the passenger's side, and opened the door for Kagome and helped her out of the car.

"Why…Inuyasha! Thank you!"

"Feh." He paused for a moment, "No problem."

Miroku and Sango went off together, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome behind. They decided to stick together.

Kagome turned to Inuyasha and smiled her innocent little smile, "Want to ride a roller coaster?"

Inuyasha was a little hesitant, because he wasn't the biggest fan of heights, but he nodded. Kagome took his hand and ran over to the roller coaster.

Right before the ride began; Inuyasha gulped and looked around nervously. He hoped no one could see how nervous he was.

The roller coaster was a lot faster than Kagome expected. She grabbed onto Inuyasha's masculine arm and squeezed tightly. She was afraid to let go. When the ride dipped down, she screamed and buried her face in Inuyasha's chest. It's so warm, she thought to herself.

Inuyasha looked down at her, a little confused. Why is she leaning into my chest, he wondered, Is she scared?

Kagome looked up and Inuyasha and smiled a little and lifted her head up, "Oh, sorry Inuyasha."

Inuyasha smiled, "Not a problem."

Once again, the roller coaster dipped down and she squeezed Inuyasha's arm. Once she realized what she was doing, she blushed and immediately let go.

She is so gorgeous today, Inuyasha thought, wait, do I like her…like that? He then looked down at Kagome and into her chocolate brown eyes and couldn't help but smile.

XXXXXXXX
(To Sango and Miroku)

"Miroku…" Sango asked quietly as the walked alongside each other eating their cotton candy.

"Yes, Sango?"

"Why did you kiss me?"

"Sango, isn't it obvious…" Miroku paused for a moment, "I l-love you."

Sango blushed and turned to face him. All of a sudden, she grabbed his face and kissed him.

Miroku's mind swirled, and then he grabbed Sango's butt…

"MIROKUUUUUU!" She slapped him so hard, he spun around. When he saw how cute she looked when she was angry, he smiled and chuckled.

XXXXXXXX
(Back to Inuyasha and Kagome)

"Inuyasha?" Asked Kagome, looking into Inuyasha's amber eyes, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Inuyasha was silent for a moment, "The expression on your face was priceless!" He lied.
Damn you Inuyasha, he thought to himself, she's not going to believe that! She'll think you like her or something!

"Oh, yeah… I wasn't expecting this roller coaster to be so fast and full of surprises."

Whew, Inuyasha thought to himself once again, she believed me!"

"Yeah, I would have never agreed to come on this ride if I knew that. I'm not to fond of heights…"

Kagome blushed a little, "Me too!"

After getting off the roller coaster, they walked side by side around the amusement park trying to find another ride they'd like to go on. They decided to ride the Ferris wheel; it was high, but slow.

Once they were at the top, they spotted Sango and Miroku down below. Inuyasha and Kagome both waved, hoping they would see them. Sure enough, they did and waved back.

When the ride was over, Inuyasha and Kagome joined the other two, who were still eating their cotton candies.

"Well, I think that was enough for one day." Said Inuyasha.

"Yes, but I want to get a cotton candy first." Kagome replied while digging through her jean pockets to find some change, "Aw crap! I lost my money!"

"I'll buy you some." Inuyasha walked over to the concession stand and bought him and Kagome a cotton candy and then they headed off to his car.

"Thank you Inuyasha."

"No problem, Kags."

XXXXXXXX

"That was a lot of fun!" exclaimed Sango as they were back at Inuyasha's house. She lay on the couch with Miroku, who was worn out from all the fun he'd had.

"Yes! I want to go again sometime." Kagome said while turning to Inuyasha, "Are you going to finish that cotton candy?"

"No." Inuyasha handed the half eaten cotton candy to Kagome.

"Thank you." Kagome smiled and began to eat.

They all sat at Inuyasha's watching cartoons. About 8:00pm, Miroku and Sango decided to go ahead and head home. Kagome decided to stay behind and watch more cartoons with Inuyasha. She ended up falling asleep on the couch next to Inuyasha around midnight.

Inuyasha glanced down at the sleeping Kagome. I guess I'll go to sleep too, he thought to himself. He then leaned over and fell asleep next to Kagome…
