A/N: Sorry it's taken so long but like I said I have just started high school so I probably won't be able to up date or post until Fridays or the weekends. Luckily it's a Friday so I decided to update! Thanks to the reviews I got I decided I should update sooner than appose to later! I don't know if this will be the last chappi or not but if it is, or even if it isn't I've got sum questions for you all, K? So now to our story right after these brief messages.

Oh! In this stori Kagome is seventeen. Now read on!

Disclaimer: Sorry, but if I owned Inuyasha I would keep him all to myself… after rubbing it all in your faces. Lol! DON'T SUE!

This part of the chappi is dedicated to my very 1st reviewer ever, InuandKagforever! Hope you like it! P.S. Keep reviewing! You give me BIG confidence boosters!

Last time - Kagome was under the water when she saw a flash of the moon and a dark figure that entered her bathing spot. Without even thinking she shot up and the sight that met her eyes, stunned her.

"Inuyasha?" she barely got the name out as a whisper as he stood there before her. Kagome was too stunned to even to use the 's' word on him. Besides, she melted at the sight of him. His glistening muscles bathed in moonlight (yum!). Kagome looked at the 'sexy beast' up then down. She blushed deep at the slow realization that he was completely unclothed! As the shock wore down, Kagome realized two things. The first was that she was completely nude as well, so Inuyasha could see her too! And the second came, as more of a surprise, which made her blush even deeper, his member was totally erect!

Inuyasha's eyes widened as Kagome stood up. He whispered her name longingly, "Kagome". He blushed as he realized that she stood before him utterly and completely naked. 'But then again so am I,' he thought to himself as he felt his member rising to meet the beauty before him. But what really struck him hard was that Kagome wasn't trying to cover herself or sit him. So of course he took this to his advantage. Inuyasha couldn't help but look at every curve of her body. He had longed for the girl for two almost three years now. He knew he couldn't have Kagome, but the smell of her arousal wasn't helping him to control himself.

They were looking into each other's eyes now. Neither realizing that they were slowly coming closer to one another. Yet reality stepped in quickly as Inuyasha's member brushed Kagome's thigh. "Sorry!" they both quickly said, but as Inuyasha turned to leave Kagome stopped him. "No! Don't go," she whispered, "please?"

(A/N: Now wouldn't you hate me if I stopped it here? Well because of my second reviewer I'm going to continue. This is for you, djl. Now on with the stori!)

Before Inuyasha could stop himself, he turned around and picked the slightly shocked miko up and kissed her. It was short, and not deep at all (so no tong you all!), but it was enough to make both of them melt. He put her gently down and said as his amber eyes stared down into her stunningly beautiful brown orbs of light, "Get dressed. I have something to show you."

Once they were dressed Inuyasha held Kagome bridal style and headed off. "Close your eyes", he said softly to the girl in his arms.

"But why?" she questioned.

"Just do it. Please," he hastily added in as to seem more polite. Kagome decided she better do it because she knew Inuyasha might never be like this again. She stayed like that in his arms for about fifteen minutes until Kagome started to get sleepy again. A slight smile crept up Inuyasha's lips as she snuggled into his chest. He would never admit it out loud, but he really enjoyed holding her like this.

"Kagome, open your eyes. We're here", he softly spoke to the sleepy girl in his arms. As Kagome opened her eyes she gasped at the sight before her. The two were in a field of moonlight cherry blossoms. The grass was soft and green, and a little spring ran to one side. Yet right in the middle was a towering oak that left everything surrounding it looking like little saplings. Inuyasha jumped into the oak and sat Kagome down next to him. 'It's now or never' he thought to himself, 'I have to tell her how… how I feel.' But before Inuyasha could even think of where to begin Kagome cut in. "It's so lovely Inuyasha! This isn't like you at all!" "Feh!" he couldn't help but say it and slightly turn away. I was a habit by now. "Well sorry for trying to do something nice!" "Oh Inuyasha! You know I didn't mean it like that! You don't have to go and get all arrogant about it!" "I'm not arrogant! And DON'T YELL!" "I'M NOT YELLING! AND JUST FOR THAT, SI…" "SHUT UP WENCH! I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU THAT I - I love you." He whispered the last part as another red flush crept its way along his face.

They sat there in silence for what seemed like an eternity to Inuyasha. "Please say something – anything before we go back", he was starting to get desperate. The truth was, was that Kagome had not clue as in what to say. She had loved him for so long. Through all the pain. Through all the suffering! In times of need and in time of happiness, but never – never had Inuyasha ever showed more than what Kagome had hoped to be a slight affection. She was stupefied the he thought more of her than just a shard detector!

Then suddenly Inuyasha stood up. He couldn't take it. He had expected her not to love him back, but to just sit there doing absolutely nothing was torture. But before he could jump Kagome (trying to keep her balance) stood up and hugged Inuyasha. "I love you too Inuyasha!" She whispered to her shocked companion.

Inuyasha lovingly returned the embrace, then pulled back. "You l-love me? But I'm just a dirty half breed!" "Inuyasha I have loved you for who and what you are. Nothing else. I love you during the new moon. I love you when you are a full – blood demon. And I have and will always love you in-between those times." And at that they leaned in and their lips met, not in greed, nor lust, but in pure love.

Kagome woke with a start. It took her a minute to realize that she was still in her sleeping bag with Shippo curled up next to her. The fire was all embers now and she could only just make out Sango and Miroku's sleeping forms. She looked up into the tree she was sleeping under thoughtfully.

Inuyasha opened his eyes. That had to be the most detailed dream he had ever had. He looked down to see Kagome looking up at him. "What do you want?"

She sighed and said, "Nothing Inuyasha. Just … just thinking."

"You should get back to sleep. We have a long day tomorrow." At that Kagome sighed once more and fell asleep. 'I wonder if she had a dream like mine? No, come off it. She couldn't – wouldn't. Feh! What am I thinking?'

And at that last thought Inuyasha slipped into another dream.

A/N: So how did you like it? Come on I have to know? Do you want me to continue? Or if you really ask me nicely I might write an alternate chappi using a lemon. It's up to you peeps! Love you all! Review!
