Kagome ran to the well then jumped in. she ran home towards the phone. "Hello, is Hojo there?"
She heard a familiar voice on the phone "Hi Hojo! Hey, I wanted to ask you something, um... are you busy tonight?" Kagome waited for two seconds then got an answer. "I was thinking if maybe we could go out somewhere. Would you like to?" Kagome then ran up to her room getting ready for her date.
Inuyasha saw Sango coming back without Kagome. "Hey Sango, where's Kagome?" Sango looked up at him "oh, Kagome told me to tell you that she had to go to her house to do something." Inuyasha then looked out to the well deciding if he should go after her. 'I think I should wait a little' so he went out to take a nap on a tree.
"Hello, Kagome are you home?" Kagome's mom was entering the house with Sota and grandpa behind her. "Yes mom I'm here but I'm heading out" Mrs. Higurashi followed Kagome's voice then found her in the restroom fixing her hair. "Where to?" Kagome started plugging the hair dryer while explaining to her mom. "I have a date with Hojo, but this time I'm going to try and tell him that I can't date him anymore." Mrs. Higurashi got worried.
"Oh and why not?" Kagome then put the hair dryer down and whispered in her mom's ear. "I knew it, I knew you felt that way about Inuyasha" said Kagome's mom after hearing about Kagome and Inuyasha's confession. "I'm so happy that you and Inuyasha feel the same way about each other." Kagome then smiled and finished up.
"Ok mom I'm leaving. I'll be back later okay." Kagome waved goodbye to her mom then grabbed her purse and left. Kagome was dressed in a long black dress with her hair put up and some matching black short healed shoes and a small little beaded hand purse.
Kagome waited outside on the sidewalk then saw Hojo coming in a cab 'oh wow, a cab, that's so classy' thought Kagome sarcastically. "Hi Kagome, ready for our date?" Kagome gave him a fake smile trying hard to no look serious. "Yup." Kagome got in the cab then was joined by Hojo. She started to feel bad thinking about Inuyasha 'well it's not like I'm on a real date with him right? I'm not in this for fun right?' she looked at Hojo then he smiled back at her. 'Yes, I can do this.'
Meanwhile, back in the Sengoku Jidai, Inuyasha had woken up and was fighting with himself deciding whether he should go after Kagome yet. 'She has been out for long, but maybe she doesn't want to be bothered, what if she doesn't come back. What if it's because of me?' Without hesitating Inuyasha ran to the well then into Kagome's time.
Sango and Miroku were inside Kaede's cabin but they hadn't talked to each other for awhile until Miroku got tired of it and decided to speak up. "Sango can I talk to you" Sango then shot up and started to worry. They were both outside then all of a sudden Miroku held on to Sango's shoulders then started to get serious "Sango why haven't you answered my question? Why haven't you been talking to me?" Sango then hugged Miroku and started to feel bad. "Because I'm sacred Miroku, I'm scared that if I have your child... that...that you won't love me anymore!" Miroku couldn't believe what he had just heard; he held Sango by her shoulders again then stared into her eyes. "I love you Sango, and no matter what, there is nothing that can stop me from loving you." Sango shed into joyful tears then threw her arms around Miroku. "Oh Miroku you don't know how happy this makes me!"
Miroku then hugged her back and smiled "so does that mean that you will bear my child?" Sango looked at him then placed her head on his chest "yes, I will" Miroku carried her then spun her around with joy. They both then entered Kaede's cabin then Sango sat down next to Miroku as he placed his head on Sango's shoulder.
Sango started to blush knowing that Kohaku and Shippo were staring at them. "What has gotten into those two?" said Kohaku whispering into Shippo's ear. Shippo was also confused then tried to answer Kohaku by whispering back "I bet Miroku asked her to bear his child" he said playfully.
It was night time and everyone was tired soon after everyone was asleep except for a certain hanyou at the other side of the well. Inuyasha had asked Mrs. Higurashi where Kagome was but she didn't have time to finish explaining why Kagome was out on a date. She didn't know that Inuyasha was still in the house waiting for Kagome's arrival on the window of her room.
Inuyasha was getting impatient but then saw a car pull over, and then Kagome came out followed by Hojo. He leaned over trying to hear their conversation. "I really had fun tonight Hojo but I need to tell you something" said Kagome trying to figure out how to tell him the bad news. "Wait! I also need to tell you something." said Hojo while picking through his pocket. "Here I wanted to give you this" Hojo took out a box that had a beautiful necklace with a little blue diamond hanging from it. "I wanted to know if you would accept to be my girlfriend?" Kagome was about to reach for the necklace then suddenly felt worse about what she was about to do. She looked down making Hojo feel worried. She hugged Hojo but before she did anything else Inuyasha jumped off her window then ran to the well trying to not to get caught.
After the hug Kagome faced Hojo "I'm sorry Hojo, but I would really like for us to be just friends." Kagome then ran to her front door trying to avoid anything that Hojo might say before she left. Kagome got inside her house then stood there in front of the door for a couple of minutes thinking if she had done the right thing. 'That was harder than what I thought.' "Kagome is that you?" said Mrs. Higurashi walking towards the door. "Hello Kagome, so how was your date?" Kagome made a tired face then took of her shoes "it was hard mom, really hard." Kagome's mom smiled then it hit her "oh Kagome, I forgot, Inuyasha stopped by looking for you." Kagome then shot up "what! Oh my god! Well thanks mom, I think I'm going to go back, I'll see you in about a week." She said running up to her room 'I totally forgot about Inuyasha! Oh my god, what am I going to do!'
Inuyasha jumped out of the well hurt. "It was because of me, she left because of me" said Inuyasha while walking to the sacred tree. He sat down in a tree in front of the sacred tree. "And to think that Kagome could love a stupid half demon like me, I'm such and idiot" Inuyasha then looked up at the sky thinking about what had happened.
Kagome jumped out of the well then saw Inuyasha's hair through the bushes and decided to follow.
