Shuichi walked into the nearby forest, the inn not too far. The full moon shone on her neck, caressing her body. Her hair now shiny black, and her eyes were dark grey. Inuyasha had followed her, 'She looks just like Mother...' he thought.
"Huh? Who's there?" Shuichi called out, startled.
"So, you're human on the FULL moon?" Inuyasha walked into the moonlight, arms folded.
"Ya know, at times I can't believe you're youngest..." Shuichi sighed. Inuyasha glared at her, "But yeah... Full moons."
"Well, don't be stupid. Come inside." Inuyasha said.
"But... Look at me." Shuichi said.
"So? I become human in front of 'em on new moons." Inuyasha said.
"New moons?" Shuichi went into thought, "Fine."
"C'mon. Before Kagome comes out looking for us." Inuyasha started to walk, "I don't want her dead..." he muttered.
"Oh? I knew it!" Shuichi ran up next to Inuyasha, "I heard that. I may be human, but I ain't deaf, little brother!"
"Wha?" Inuyasha turned red and looked down.
"It's obvious you love her, Inuyasha." Shuichi smiled.
"But... Kikyou..." Inuyasha murmured.
"Isn't she dead?"
"Walks amongst the living." Inuyasha said.
Shuichi hit Inuyasha upside the head, "That's why Kagome won't tell you! Sheesh, live with Kagome, the LIVING one!"
"I can't just forget about Kikyou!" Inuyasha retorted.
"And? She isn't living remember? She won't age." Shuichi was folding her arms.
"And so I haveta forget Kikyou because I love Kagome!" Inuyasha snapped. They were feet away from the inn, and didn't notice Kagome right there. Kagome dropped the bowl in her hands and listened to this, as it repeated in her mind, 'And so I haveta forget Kikyou because I love Kagome'.
"Uh..." Kagome was red.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha and Shuichi almost fell over, gaping at the stunned girl. Kagome turned light pink and ran inside.
"Oh, boy..." Shuichi sighed, "Let's go inside..." Shuichi said. She headed inside, with Inuyasha following.
Kagome had told everyone, so when Inuyasha and Shuichi entered the room, everyone was silent, well, unless you count the fact Miroku was giving that 'you sly dog, you' look to Inuyasha.
Inuyasha gulped and sat down next to Shippou and Sango. Kirara jumped into his lap and fell asleep. Sango smiled and fell asleep, followed by Miroku and Shippou. So all that were awake were Inuyasha, Shuichi, and Kagome. They spoke all night, of adventures, and Kagome had admitted her love for Inuyasha during the conversation, which Shuichi felt very happy for. 'Maybe now they'll show some consideration for one an other... Now, time for Miroku and Sango...' Shuichi thought.
