The sun was a huge orange ball sinking slowly below the horizon. Inuyasha glanced at Kagome. She was talking to Miroku again. He noticed her doing that more often, but she never mentioned it in her diary. Her diary he thought wistfully. With a jolt Inuyasha realized that Kagome would add new entries to her diary, and he didn't know if he would be able to read it again.

Parts of Kagome's conversation drifted to Inuyasha's ear. "By the oak...when the sun starts to set...sure it can be done that way..." They were probably talking about his wedding. Inuyasha was so relaxing in his tree that he ended up drifting of the sleep.

"Inuyasha if you don't catch me I'm not coming back!" Inuyasha realized he would die if she never came back. "Come on Inuyasha! If you love me you'll catch me!" Inuyasha pounded his feet into the ground and was finally gaining on Kagome when he heard a different voice.

"Inuyasha. Come to me." Kikyou. It was Kikyou! Inuyasha glanced back and saw Kikyou standing behind him. He looked back at Kagome who was almost at the well.

She turned and looked at him. "I see. You love Kikyou more. Goodbye Inuyasha." Inuyasha's eyes grew round as she took the last steps to doing down the well.

"No Kagome wait!" Inuyasha yelled as Kagome made the final trip down the well.


(A/N: this is Kagome's point of view while Inuyasha is having his nightmare)

Kagome was laughing while talking to Miroku. He had seen the wedding pictures Kagome brought of her parents to show Sango what a wedding of her era looked like. Miroku had seen and liked the idea of a modern wedding in feudal Japan.

"Okay Kagome the purpose of the flower girls is what again?" Miroku asked. Kagome laughed and patiently explained what the flower girl did. "Why do they throw flower petals on the ground? What's the point?"

"Miroku there really isn't a point its just tradition."

"Well who started the tradition?"

"How should I know? Its just done! If you don't want a flower girl then you don't have to have one!" Kagome answered.

"No! I want one! Will you be the flower girl?" Kagome narrowed her eyes and slapped Miroku.

"How dare you suggest that? I'm the maid of Honor! Duh!" Miroku was rubbing his cheek and said,

"Okay okay it was just a suggestion Geez. What does the maid of honor do again?" Kagome rolled her eyes and explain the purpose of the maid of honor again. Before Miroku could ask another stupid question that Kagome had already explained she said,

"Do you just want me to right this all out?"

"No no I think I got it. I just have one more question. Why does the bride need something blue, new, old, gold-" Kagome cut him off.

"Not gold! Its something old something new something borrowed something blue. Its just another tradition." Kagome said laughing. Miroku really was hopless when it came to something in her era. She'd bring her portable DVD player and bring a movie like Steel Magnolias, or Father of the Bride. That should help both Sango and Miroku get a better understanding of a modern wedding.

The sun had just sunk below the horizon and a chilly wind swept by. Kagome shivered and Miroku noticed. "Well Kagome I think that's enough wedding talk for today. Lets go inside and away from the cold shall we?"

"What about Inuyasha?" Kagome said looking at him. He was asleep in a tree again and his ears were twitching. He must be dreaming. She thought.

"Let him sleep. He'll come find you-I mean us when he wakes up." Kagome noticed the slip up of the tongue instantly and got up to follow Miroku to ask him about it when Inuyasha yelled,

"No! Kagome wait!" Kagome turned around and saw Inuyasha was awake and looking around. Did he have another nightmare? Kagome wondered absently as she waved to Miroku to let him know that she would catch up later. Inuyasha jumped down from the tree and stood at its trunk waiting for her to walk to him.

"Kagome take a walk with me?" Kagome wondered where he wanted to go, especially since it was getting really dark out. She nodded and fell in step next to him. Kagome shivered again, wishing she had her sweater, when she felt Inuyasha drape something warm over her shoulders. It was his kimono.

"Inuyasha. You didn't have to, I'm not that cold." She told him.

"You saying you don't want it?" Inuyasha asked. By the sound of his voice Kagome knew he'd be offended if she didn't wear it. She shook her head and put her arms through the sleeves of the fire-rat cloth. It was so warm and she wasn't sure if it was from just being a warm coat, or from Inuyasha's body heat. Kagome blushed at the last thought and she was glad that it was dark so he couldn't see her.

Kagome stopped when Inuyasha did. He brought her to the old oak, where they had first met those two years ago. He sat at the base of the trunk. Without thinking she sat next to him. He had to have brought her here for a reason.

The clouds in the sky moved away from the moon and an almost full moon light up the clearing. Kagome got the feeling that you get when someone is staring at you. She turned her head to look and Inuyasha and was caught up in his intense gaze. "Inu-" she got out before Inuyasha silenced her by covering her mouth with his.


Inuyasha was nervous the whole time he took her to the tree. He was constantly aware of how close Kagome was. Her scent was so intoxicating, it was almost overwhelming, but in a good way. When he had sat down by the oak he didn't know what to do next. He was so damn nervous and he didn't know what to do.

He waited until Kagome looked at him and before he could change his mind he kissed her. When he felt Kagome's lips with his own he was transported into another world. She kissed him back, slowly at first as though she were unsure of herself, but then started to kiss him back eagerly.

Inuyasha deepened the kiss and he felt Kagome respond immediately and Inuyasha broke the kiss. Kagome's face was flushed and her eyes were burning brightly. The moonlight gave her a silver halo and she looked beautiful.

"Kagome I love you. I've loved you for a while now." Inuyasha said. There he'd done it he had bared his soul to her and he now he was just waiting for Kagome to say the words he was waiting for.


I love you the words echoed in Kagome's head bouncing back and forth. Kagome had never taken her eyes off him after he had broken that kiss. That kiss! Kagome had seen fireworks. "Inuyasha I love you to." She said quietly. She couldn't believe that she had finally said that out loud, to HIM! It was something she dreamed about, even then it was very rarely that she did.

Inuyasha grinned at her and stood up, pulling her up along with him. "Oh Kagome I was so scared that wouldn't feel the same way. He said. He pulled Kagome into a hug and just held her and Kagome had never been happier. She looked up at him and gave her sweetest smile.


Inuyasha groaned when he saw that smile. He was crazy about that smile. He leaned down and kissed her again. Kagome kissed back with just as much passion and love as he gave her.


Kagome's knees were getting weak from Inuyasha's kiss. She was in heaven.


Sango was sitting next to Miroku in Kaede's hut. He had his arms around her and she couldn't be more content. She was watching the fire, almost asleep when Kagome and Inuyasha walked in. Both looked as though they had taken a trip around the world in sixty seconds and both looked happy.

"Where were you guys? You completely missed dinner. It's all gone and cold now." She said, still under the influence of sleep. Kagome turned to her and smiled a huge smile.

"Don't worry about it. I'll cook Inuyasha and I some Ramen. Which reminds me I'm running low. I'll have to go back to my home tomorrow." Kagome said as she was rummaging through her yellow backpack.

Inuyasha's eyes narrowed. "Do you have to go back?" He said grumpily.

"Um yea if you want some more ramen." She said a little confused.

"Feh." was Inuyasha's response.


"Awww. Now she's cooking for him." Kikyou said staring into the mirror that Kanna held. She continued to watch for some time. Kagome and Inuyasha had their "home cooked meal". The other four in the hut had fallen asleep, but they stayed awake talking and they shared some more kisses.

Kikyou had witness their first kiss, and their second, and every one after that. It was sickening. She told Inuyasha she would wait, but why should she. There were still feelings inside Inuyasha for her, that much was certain. Kikyou laughed as she watched Inuyasha pull Kagome near him and then laid down. She would have him soon. Kagome would go back to her own world and stay there and Kikyou would be halfway happy. Truly being happy meant being alive and that was one thing that eluded Kikyou's grasp.


A/N: That had to be that hardest chapter I have written so far. I'm not sure if I like it too much I mean it could be a lot better but this is the first fanfiction I've written so hopefully it'll get easier. Well sorry it's taken so long to update. My computer has been crashing lately and I've had loads of school work. Well r&r and tell me what you think!
