The Confession: Inu-Yasha's Date.
I love him! Kagome looked at the half-demon across from her. She had been staring at him for hours now in deep thought. He was just catching on to her actions.
"What?" he demanded of her as usual in his I'm superior look!
"Nothing." She breathed as he spoke. This was unusual for her. She should have no problem talking to Inu-Yasha at all. She finally realized they were completely alone in Keade's extra hut with Shippo sleeping in the corner. "Well," she drove on to say. "I was wondering if you'd like to go out on a Date with me?" she meekly asked the man. She went on and on saying how she would understand if he said 'No' or whatever.
He seemed in deep thought for a long time, not listening to Kagome rattle on Kagome had tolled him, once, and he listened, to Kagome as she told him of this dating thing. He remembered what it was and everything about it and what it meant Kagome was saying. Inu-Yasha felt the same way about her and didn't rub the fact that she opened first to him. Finally he gave an answer, "Yes!"
She lunged and hugged him. She heard him say something to her, "I feel the same way."
Kagome just blushed and looked down at his announcement. Sango came in to the hut with Miroku following behind her. They are always together and they defiantly like each other. I wonder if I can make this a double date? Her mind worked furiously to find a perfect place for the four of them. The park would suit all their needs, but the carnival is in town. The carnival is fun, but Sango and Inu-Yasha might attack some of the swirling lights. Miroku might pay more attention to the other girls' skirts than Sango. It is decided then the park it is.
Then, when feeling and sight came back to her she saw Sango and Miroku staring at her. "What is up with you lately?" Sango queried. "Ever since Kikyo and Naroku were sent to Hell you have been in alight daze."
"Oh, I'm just thinking about things. Say how would you and Miroku like to visit my era?"
"How? Only you and Inu-Yasha are aloud to pass through the well." Miroku stated.
"That isn't true, I hope. I have a theory that If you are connected to someone who can pass through you can go through also! If this works I was also wondering if you two like to go on a date there?"
"Well Kagome, I do admit you are attractive, but I much would prefer Sango." Miroku said making a glance to Sango who was blushing.
"She meant the two of you together!" Inu-Yasha helped Kagome in his usual angry tone.
"Well I'd love to, but…" Miroku said glancing at Sango nervously.
"I'd love to go with Miroku." Sango said a little embarrassed and loudly. Shippo woke up from Sango's volcanus boom of her answer.
"What is going on?" Shippo asked sleepily, rubbing his eyes and yawning
Kagome thought of everything. "Just talking of all of us going to my time, you are coming, of course."
Shippo's face lit up, but then dropped. "What about Kirara?" Shippo asked to leave his neko friend behind.
"Kirara will come with us." Inu-Yasha said catching on to who Kagome was talking about.
"We will leave tomorrow?" Kagome asked everyone.
They all agreed to it and went to separate places to sleep. Kagome moved next to Inu-Yasha and thanked him by kissing him lightly. They both blushed and went to sleep.
The next morning, they ate breakfast and left to the well. Kagome holding Miroku's and Sango's hand and bringing them to the next era. "Hey! It worked!"
A second later and Inu-Yasha, with Shippo and Kirara were in Kagome's time. The new ones here "Oh'd" at the tall buildings you could see from outside. Kagome and Inu-Yasha led them to Kagome's home.
"Welcome back Kagome!" Her mom said. "These are some unfamiliar faces and the boy is so cute!" she picked up Shippo off Inu-Yasha's shoulder.
"Mom, you know Inu-Yasha already. This is Miroku, Sango, Kirara, and Shippo."
"Hi!" they all greeted at once. Miroku and Sango bowing as is the custom in their time.
"I guess I'll make some more food."
Sota came running in.
"HI! Kagome! Inu-Yasha!" he stared at the new faces. "Who are they?"
"Sota meet, Sango, Miroku, Kirara, and your new playmate; Shippo."
"Hi Sota, I'm Shippo."
"Wow another demon!" Sota's eyes grew wide and he grinned.
"Come on guys, we have shopping to do!" Kagome said to everyone.
Sango loved shopping and Inu-Yasha had heard of it, but it was new to Miroku. Kagome got her purse and they, err, she had decided to go to the clothing stores first. It was easy enough to find clothes for Sango, since girl's clothes take up half the store, but guy clothes was a different matter. Miroku and Inu-Yasha had never gone shopping before. They did manage to find out the boys liked jeans. Inu-Yasha got blue jeans and Miroku got black. They decided to meet at the front of the store in an hour. Kagome took off with Inu-Yasha and Sango with Miroku.
They found only one shirt that Inu-Yasha liked to wear, a red shirt, (You saw that one coming!) Kagome knew it. She also got a new skirt and top for herself, both for tonight.
They met up in the front and Miroku had a dark blue, almost navy, shirt on that actually matched the jeans. She paid and they left. For now they wore their Feudal Era clothes.
There was a commotion going on in the living room of the house. Shippo was beating Sota in Tekkin, horribly. The three went upstairs to leave the clothes there.
They separated, to do different things. Sango and Miroku went out to check out the shrine. Kagome told them to stay near the shrine. Inu-Yasha and Kagome were staying in the living room to supervise everything. Even though Shippo is very young and Sota is a human, they still can hurt each other badly. The twosaw a forming friendship between Shippo and Sota.
Miroku and Sango met Kagome's grandfather in the back of the temple. He was making sutras. (Not very good ones) Miroku introduced them to Kagome's grandfather.
"You are a real miko?" Miroku asked, only feeling a little amount of miko energy.
"Yes I am." He went to his sutras again. "Darn sutras!" he said trying to make one that works.
"You have it all wrong." Sango said next to him.
"Sango, you know how to make sutras as well?" Miroku asked.
"There is a lot you don't know about me."
Sango and Mirokusat down to show him how to make sutras that really work, and work well.
"Here is a warning though," Miroku told him "Inu-Yasha is unaffected by them for some reason."
Grandpa had a look of pure discomfort. He didn't mind Inu-Yasha when Kagome had to go to the feudal era, but now that she had done what she had to do he didn't like her hanging around him anymore.
Later the groupdecided to go while Shippo was distracted. The four of them walked along the sidewalk to the park Kagome had picked out. The walk there was relatively short. Miroku, surprisingly, was being behaved. The girls that walked by, he didn't even glance away from Sango.
The park itself was empty and quiet. Even so Inu-Yasha could go out undetected because it was a new moon. They ate their dinner and talked a lot until Sango noticed the lights.
"Hey Kagome?" she asked.
"What Sango?"
"Isn't that the carnival place you told me about?" she pointed to the lights.
"The carnival?' Inu-Yasha asked aloud. "Yeah, you also told me about that place before."
Kagome thought about it and checked her purse for money. She had enough money with some to spare. "Promise you won't attack anything?"
"I'm human and they didn't bring their weapons." Inu-Yasha said defending everyone.
"Alright, we will go."
The four friends packed up and went to the carnival. After a brief lesson on using money and a watch, they split up to meet back in two hours.
Kagome decided to try some games first. Inu-Yasha was really good at the "Test Your Strength" game. He nearly took the bell off in his human form. He was also really good at the "Whack-A-Mole" game.
Kagome was good at the shooting games and "Shooting Gallery" (Gofigure...)game. Next up was the ferris wheel. They both went up to the top and saw Sango and Miroku having a great time playing games.
"On to the concession stand!" Kagome said.
They saw Sango and Miroku already there. "Hey guys!" Sango said.
"Hi guys! Having fun?"
"Yeah we are!" Miroku answered with an arm around Sango.
"Hey Kagome!" said a male voice behind her.
She and Inu-Yasha jumped and turned around. It was Hojo.
"Hojo? What a coincidence!" she said.
"Are you with your friends 'cause I don't see them"?
"These are my friends too. This is Sango and Miroku. And this is my date, Inu-Yasha." She said hanging off his arm.
"Oh." Is all Hojo said and left. Inu-Yasha felt he would be threat to his relationship with Kagome.
They were all still at the concession stand when Kagome's other friends showed up.
"Hi Kagome!" they all said at once, sending them all into a jump.
"Oh, hi guys!" Kagome said.
They dragged her away. "Who is tall, dark, and handsome you are with?" came the question.
"That is Inu-Yasha you guys!"
"You are still with that psycho path?"
"He is not a psycho path! He is sweet kind and smart!"
"Okay, but who are the other people you are with?"
"They are Miroku and Sango. Want to meet them?"
"Sure." They said not at all welcoming.
"Miroku, Sango, and Inu-Yasha these are my friends."
"Hello!' The three said.
"Are you on a date?" one of her friends asked.
"Yep!"
Eventually they had to leave to go home as it got late. Once home everyone was else was asleep so they slept down stairs on the couches. Sango and Miroku were leaning against each other and Kagome was lying on her side with Inu-Yasha behind her, his arms around her waist.
