Chapter 8: Sakura festival.

Kagome told separated the clothing, gave the boys their kimono's and she help Sango put on hers before getting dressed herself.

Sango looked at her kimono in awe as she twirled in front of the full-length mirror.

"Kagome, it's beautiful!" she said smiling.

Kagome smirked.

"I knew you'd love it! But now you have to sit down, so I can do your hair." She said, reaching for her hair supplies.


Miroku looked at himself in the other room.

"Kagome certainly know what she's doing." He said, looking impressed.

"These look great."he said. InuYasha just mumbled a 'feh' even though he knew that they looked good.


"Kagome!" Sango said, looking at her hair.

"You look amazing!" Kagome said, placing the beautiful flower she saw in the store onto Sango's bun.

"No, you do! I can't believe what you'll look like when your finished your hair! InuYasha's jaw will drop!" Kagome blushed at Sango's last remark.

Kagome looked down at her kimono. She didn't think she looked that good.

"No, Miroku will drop his jaw so much, the crater will be there for years!" she said as she tied her hair up loosely.


"I can't wait to see the ladies. Kagome and Sango will look ravishing!" he said with a lecherous smile on his face.

InuYasha growled slightly. Miroku shut up. 'Although...Sango would care for me alll night if he hit me...' Miroku smiled at the thought but decided to shut up anyway.

They were both beginning to become impatient waiting for the girls to come out, when Sango, followed by Kagome walked out of the hut.

Both Kagome and Sango blushed when the boys remained silent, slack-jawed.

Kagome smiled a bit as she noticed her jaw was slightly ajar, staring at InuYasha. He looked good. The red kimono was almost like his fire rat one, but wasn't as loose.

'Sango... she looks like a goddess...' he smiled lecherously again and closed his mouth.


InuYasha couldn't help but stare at Kagome. She had on a light green kimono with dark green accents, with her hair in a fancy bun, with a rose entwined in it. She was holding a fan that was white with dragons on it.

'She looks amazing...' InuYasha thought. It was true. For lack of a better term, it exentuated her in all the right areas.(A/N:hardyhar har...NO!YOU HENTAI!...whoops! back to the story...)


"Sango, my goddess, allow me to walk you to the festival." he said holding his arm out.

Kagome decided she should follow, so she held her arm out and InuYasha snapped out of his little trance and walked with her.

'He looks really good. I didn't mind that he seemed to like my outfit either...' she thought blushing a bit.

InuYasha was staring at her through the corner of his eye, not being able to take his eyes off of her.


When they arrived, Sango whispered Miroku to do something, and he nodded and walked away.

'The plan is working out perfectly...' Sango thought as she felt like a scheming little match-maker.

Kagome and InuYasha sat down and watched as all the little kids ran around.

One of the village men walked up to InuYasha and politely asked if InuYasha would like to play with the children. InuYasha almost laughed at the mans request.

The man nodded and walked away, disappointed.

"InuYasha? Why don't you want to play with the children?" Kagome asked as she looked into his eyes.

"Feh! As if I'd want those little brats crawling all over me." He said, crossing his arms.

"Please? I'd owe you one..." she said looking at him with pleading eyes.

He peeked at her through the corner of his eye.

"What do you mean, you'd 'owe me one.'?" he asked turning to her.

"It means I'd owe you a favor, you know you could ask me to do something, and I would have to do it!" she explained proudly.

InuYasha thought this over.

"Okay, but I want to save it until I find something that is worthy." he said matter-of- factly.

Kagome hugged him and smiled.

"Thank-you!" she said as he walked over to the children and let them play with him.

He played with a fake pout on, he even let them crawl on him a bit, but wouldn't let anyone touch his ears, though that was expected. He never let anyone in any situation touch his ears. 'Well except me...' she blushed a deep red at her thoughts.

InuYasha was having some fun, though he would never admit it, the kids weren't so bad. But really all he was thinking about was this 'favour' that Kagome owed him.

'Favour huh?'


Miroku waited for about fifteen minutes before InuYasha was sitting with Kagome again, then walked up to the top of the hill and wondered why he was doing this part. He shrugged it off anyway, and pinched his throat. He had to do this quietly, just so InuYasha would hear, not anyone else.

"Help me!" he said in his highest voice.

He quickly bent down to see if InuYasha heard. He was sitting next to Kagome and his ears were twitching.

"Help me!" he repeated and ran down so he wouldn't be caught.

InuYasha turned around.

"Is there something wrong?" she asked.

"I thought I heard someone yell for help up there." he said and nodded his head towards the hill.

"Come on then, let's go!" Kagome said, pulling him up.

She got on his back and he made a swift jump towards the hill.


He sniffed around and smelled the monk. He felt a growl emerge from his throat and saw Kagome stare at him.

"Whats wrong?" she asked.

"It was the damn lecher. There was no one that really needed our help." he replied, but when he looked back at her, she was sitting atop the hill, looking at the sky. It was already dark, and the moon was up.

She looked at the sky full of stars and was ad that they didn't have nights like this back in Tokyo.

"What are you doing?" InuYasha asked, a little curious.

"Well, it's a beautiful night, I want to make the best of it!" she said and smiled on of her beautiful smiles.

InuYasha sat beside her and looked up at the sky.

'She is so beautiful tonight. What are you talking about? She's always beautiful! What? Shut up!' he fought his conscience in his head. 'What? are you saying she isn't beautiful? She is beautiful, inside and out. You can't even deny it.' the voice in his head said.

InuYasha cut his thoughts off, knowing the voice was right.

He remembered one time when he was out with Kagome long ago.

"Look, InuYasha! A shooting star! Make a wish!" she said, clasping her hands together and closing her eyes.

He looked at the sky in awe. There wasn't many nights like this. It was nice.

In his sub-conscious, he made a wish too. 'I want Kagome to stay with me always.'

InuYasha felt a tint of pink touch his cheeks, so he turned away.

'As if that will ever happen why would she ever want a dirty half-breed..' He took a good look at her and looked back to the stars.

"This is working out better than I thought!" Sango whispered. "Come on, let's go, we fulfilled our duty. Let's go back to the festival." she said, turning to Miroku.

He nodded and they went back to the village for the party.

InuYasha turned to Kagome. 'If anytime is right, now would be it.'

"Kagome?" He asked.

"Ya?" she turned to him.

"Can I ask you something?"
