Chapter 3: A little Fall of Rain

Kagome and InuYasha walked side by side down the street. They talked and got to know each other. They walked into the park and sat on the bench.

"This is nice." Kagome said, smiling. "I'm glad I can get away from the store for a while." InuYasha smiled. "I'm glad you're enjoying yourself."

There was an awkward silence before anyone spoke again. What to talk about? InuYasha thought panicking, he hates these tense awkward silences. Finally Kagome thought of something to say. "So, what sort of things do you like doing in your spare time?" "Well, I'm sort of out of work right now, so I spend a lot of time at home not doing much, but I finished reading all of my collage text books and I listen to all of my dad's old records." "Wow, you must have been out of work for a while." Kagome wasn't just acting surprised. "Well it's been almost two months, and I really need a job." InuYasha looked at the ground and sighed. "Mr. Sakagami said he was looking for someone else to work at the store with me, so you could ask him." "Thanks, Kagome, that would be nice." InuYasha smiled.

InuYasha looked up just as it started to rain. It was only a shower but it was quite cold. Kagome shivered and looked up as well. She smiled as the raindrops hit her face. "I love the rain." She stated glancing over at InuYasha. "You look cold." He said taking off his sweater and handing it to her. "Oh, domo. Are you sure you won't get cold?" "I'll be fine, don't worry about me." "Kagome!" a small redheaded child ran up to them. "Oh hey Shippo!" Kagome smiled at her little cousin. "Miroku was looking for you at the store, and he bought me candy!" Leave it to Miroku to get worried about me and send his seven-year-old brother running all over town looking for me! "Hey you know Miroku?" InuYasha said with a surprised look. "Ya I know Miroku he's my brother! And we are Kagome's cousins." Shippo looked at InuYasha like he was a total idiot. "Oh, cool." InuYasha said blankly, recalling his phone conversation with Miroku this morning. "Be careful with her, InuYasha, she's my cousin." Miroku's words flashed into his mind. "Spin with me Kagome!" Shippo said jumping up and down in excitement. "Alright!" Kagome laughed getting up from the bench. "Be careful Kagome." InuYasha said quietly as Shippo and Kagome walked to an open spot in the grass.

Kagome held on to Shippo's wrists and began spinning in a circle. Shippo giggled happily as he flew around in circles. InuYasha watched them from the bench. The rain was still falling fast, about as fast as InuYasha found himself falling in love with Kagome. But then it was Kagome's turn to fall. The grass was wet and slippery, and just as Shippo touch down after spinning Kagome slipped on the grass and found she falling. InuYasha saw her falling and ran to her. He ran and caught just before she hit the ground, Miroku always said he was best a track running. Kagome found herself lying on the ground in InuYasha's arms, where she had fallen. Shippo sat on the ground where he had landed; he looked up and saw Kagome and InuYasha. "Kagome are you okay?" He asked getting up and walking over to her. "I'm fine, my ankle hurts a little though." InuYasha helped her to her feet, and they walked back to the park bench.

Kagome looked at her watch; it was almost 12:30. "Oh I should be getting back to work!" She exclaimed getting up from the park bench. Shippo jumped up and stated he had places to be and rushed off. "I'll walk you back to the store, so I can talk to Mr. Sakagami about that job." InuYasha said as they begin walking out of the park.

They entered the store and Kagome walked behind the counter. InuYasha went over and talk to Mr. Sakagami. About five minutes later InuYasha walked up to the counter.

"I'm heading off now. I will see you later." InuYasha said. Then out nowhere he leaned across the counter and kissed Kagome on the cheek and walked out of the store. (That's for you Yuki!!!) Kagome blushed. "Well I'm sure he will be a good worker." Mr. Sakagami said from across the store. "He got the job?" Kagome asked. "We will see I guess." Mr. Sakagami replied.
