Chapter Two

I looked at him. My inside burned to ask him the question I was longing to ask, but what if he denied me. Can my heart take another blow? My nerve overpowered me and my question came spilling out of my mouth before I could stop myself. "Do you want come to my house for Christmas?"

"What did you say?"

"Do you want to come to my house for Christmas? My brother keeps asking me to invite you over. Might not be fun though. I have to make up a history test." He starred into my eyes.

"Sure why not." Miroku and Shippo looked shocked.

"Okay." I beamed up at him. I was glad he said yes. I looked at Miroku's and Shippo's faces. "Don't worry I'll bring you both back a Christmas present."

"When will you be back, Kagome?" asked Miroku.

"Yeah, when?" interrupted Shippo. "You don't except me to stay with this guy the whole time?"

"Don't worry we'll be back in three days tops." I smiled at them. Inuyasha and I walked over to the well. "Have a good holiday you guys. Take care of each other." Before we jumped down into the well I saw Miroku and Shippo exchanged concerned looks.

When our feet had touched the bottom Inuyasha hoisted me up and out of the well. I walked out of the shrine and made my way to my house. When I reached the front door I yelled, "Sota, mom, gramps we're home!" But nobody answered. "Mom, gramps, Sota are you here?" I walked into the kitchen to find that it was unoccupied. I saw a note posted onto the refrigerated door.

Kagome

Didn't think you would make it for Christmas.

If you get this message I'm sorry.

We were invited to a relative's house

and won't be back until New Years.

There are some leftovers in the fridge for you

if you get hungry.

Love Mom.

"WHAT!" Inuyasha turned up behind me.

"What's the matter Kagome?"

"My family won't be here for the holiday. Eh, I was hoping for a home cooked meal. I'll have to fend for myself as usual."

"So does that mean were…alone?" I gasped I had never thought of that. That would make me and Inuyasha alone…in my house…FOR A FULL WEEKEND! We stared at each other and blushed. We turned away from each other. My palms were sweating and my heart was pounding with extreme speed. What will we do? Would he make me sleep with him? No, he's Inuyasha he'd never take advantage of me.

"Um, if this is too awkward for you I could always go back home."

"No stay!" I yelled before I could stop myself. I had to keep myself busy. I had to keep my mind off of him. I put up Christmas lights, but he took them from me and stapled them around my roof. Okay, that didn't get my mind off him. Next I tried getting a Christmas tree, but he went to a forest to cut one down for me. Gir, I couldn't find anything I can do that he won't help me with. He cleaned the house, put up the Christmas light on the tree and even CLEANED THE DISHES! Why is he doing this? Why couldn't he be his usual annoying self? Why is he being so nice? Finally I came up with something he couldn't help me do.

"I'm going to cook dinner." He gave me a saddened look. Ha, I knew it. He couldn't cook to save his life. To repay him for all his work I made him Ramen with potatoes chips and dog biscuits. (I know it sounds discussing, but hey don't you think he'd eat it.) Now I didn't owe him anything. I was free of repayment. He didn't speak all through dinner. He didn't even look at me. That kind of made me depressed. What did I do wrong?

I thought it was time to give him his present. "Here Inuyasha, I made you this." I handed him over a blanket I had made. It was red and fuzzy with bones all over it. He looked down on it, his face expression not changing. I felt a stab in my heart. I guess he didn't like it. "It's okay if you hate it. It's the first one I'd ever made. I didn't except it to be all that good."

"Oh, it's not that Kagome."

"Then what is it?"

"The reason why I was working so hard today was to pay you back for not getting you a gift." My heart skipped a beat. He did all that because he felt bad for not getting me a present? I felt like I was a terrible person. I almost cried. He looked at my face. I guess he read my feelings because the next moment he held me close to his chest.

"It's okay I'm sure I can make it up in another way." I starred into his face. What did he mean by that? His eyes showed me loving that they had never shown before. He lends down and kissed my lips gently. When he finished he held me tighter and without looking at me he muttered, "I love you." I gasped. My heart was racing. Did he really mean that or was that to make up for the present?

The Gift

Kagome and Inuyasha meet under the tree where they meet for the first time. It's Christmas time and they are here to exchange their gifts. The snow is falling upon their heads.

"Merry Christmas, Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha looked deep into her eyes. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a little packaged wrapped in a huge leaf.

"Happy holidays, Kagome. Kagome, I sold the Tessaiga to Sesshoumaru to buy you this beautiful new chain to keep the Shikon jewel safe."

Kagome was surprised from his thoughtfulness. But then she looked a bit nervous.

"Oh…Inuyasha, It is beautiful! But I sold the Shikon jewel to Naraku to buy you a new sheath for the Tessaiga!"

Inuyasha looked confused. Sesshoumaru and Naraku stand beside them both while they both realized what they had both done. At the same time the both said, claimly,

"Oh, crap."

Hey if you liked that crap I've got more on my fanfic called RANDOM CRAP!
