Day 5

Inuyasha woke felling calmed, like he was at rest. Kagome was still laying with him. He always felt more at peace when she was there. He didn't know if it was a good thing or not, would he still be able to smell the demons when they came. He was surprised few demons came he had expected to have to fight demons who wanted the jewel. I guess it was a lucky break, that way he could spend more time with Kagome, and she wouldn't be getting hurt all of the time.

She snuggled in to Inuyasha's chest farther as if to run from the beams of light coming from the door. He smiled, "Kagome," he spoke softly trying to wake her. She was asleep and it didn't look like she would be waking up any time soon. He untangled himself from her careful. Miroku looked at him and nodded knowing what the hanyou was about to do. It was part his idea after all.

Inuyasha took off running in the direction of his brothers castle. He wasn't sure how this would go but he had a feeling Sesshomaru would let him take what he wanted.

Kagome finally gave into the morning light and rose from bed. She faintly remember Inuyasha leaving early but ignored it, she knew he would be back later. Sango already had breakfast started "Good morning Sango" she yawned "morning Kagome, breakfast almost ready".

Miroku came in, he looked as though he had been at the river washing up. "Good Morning Ladies" he said as he made his way over to Sango, he kissed her cheek and sat next to her his arm wrapped around her waist. Sango blushed some but kept working on breakfast. She didn't have to worry about her backside since Miroku and her had grown closer. Kagome was happy for the two; she had hoped to see them get together before she had to leave. It was confronting to her that they had finally found one another, just like her and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha tore through the trees to get back home, his package in his coat.

Flashback

"Inuyasha, why have you chosen that human girl as your mate?" Sesshomaru questioned.

"Why do you even care?" Inuyasha didn't have time for this, he had to get back to the hut for breakfast. "You know what I came for, it is rightfully mine, you have no interest in it."

"It's in the back room Inuyasha with the rest of the stuff. Are you going to…?"

"Kagome has to go back to her time forever in two days. I would, but I can't."

Sesshomaru led him to the back room were Inuyasha picked through the stuff to find his prize.

He turned to Sesshomaru and took off murmuring a "Thanks" on the way out.

end flashback

It wasn't long before he saw the hut through the trees. And by the smell of things he was just in time for breakfast. Witch was good because he was starving. He entered the hut smelling Raman, his favorite. Kagome scooped up a bowl for him, he sat by her side took the bowl and kissed her, "Morning Koi" he whispered. "Morning" he said allowing the others to hear.

"Where were you Inuyasha?" Kagome asked

"Out for a run." He said, she could tell he was trying to cover something up, it wasn't Kikyo, his face didn't look that guilty and Kagome knew that he loved her and not Kikyo so what reason would he have to see her.

Keade entered the hut carrying a basket full of herbs "Good morning" she greeted "Morning Keade"

Sango scooped up a bowl and offered it to Keade, she took it with thanks and sat by the fire. "Kagome, the villagers are throwing a festival in your honor tonight. I have explained to them that you will be leaving us, by now they know about your time travel. You are an idol for them Kagome."

"I'll be there." Kagome smiled. Though she hadn't spent much time talking to villagers she did feel grateful to them. Few she knew by name but they had all helped her in some small way through her travels.

Inuyasha finished and set his bowl by the fire. He pulled Kagome up saying "We'll be back later." The group smiled. It was good that they had some time alone. It was hard to say goodbye to one you love.

Inuyasha pulled Kagome through the forest a ways before saying. "Let me carry you it might take a while to get there" Kagome nodded, she had no complaints when Inuyasha carried her. He jumped through the trees going as fast as he could. It wasn't long before Kagome could see a house through the trees. "Inuyasha" Kagome asked, "Who lives there?" "You'll see soon Koi"

Inuyasha stooped just before the house doors and set Kagome down keeping one hand around her waist. The house really was beautiful, it didn't appear that it had been lived in for very long. There was a waterfall and a small river to the right of the house. On the other side was a beautiful garden with benches, although the garden looked at though no one had cared for it in a long time.

"This was were I grew up." Inuyasha said. "My father built this house for my mother when they were mated." Kagome smiled and leaned against Inuyasha he wrapped his other arm around her waits taking in the sights remembering things as his eyes searched the place. "You wanna see the inside?" She nodded and Inuyasha led them to the porch and placed his hand on the door. A blue magic engulfed his hand and the door swung open. "Inuyasha." A mysterious voice said from within. "Who is the girl you bring to this house?"

"She is my Koi." Inuyasha replied. "Yet you treat her like your mate?" Why the hell did magical voices have to be so curious? "I would ask her to be my mate but she must go home forever soon" Inuyasha replied without hesitation and as he did so he pulled Kagome closer to his side. She smiled, it confronted her to know that she had found someone to love her until the end of time. She only wished that she really could be by his side forever.

"You speak of her home in the future."

"I do.'

The blue magic faded and Inuyasha pulled Kagome into the house. "Did you mean that?" Kagome asked. He spun around and said, "Do you think that I didn't. I wouldn't have said it if I didn't mean it". He inched his face closer to hers. "In my mind Kagome, you are my mate. Even if we never…" He trailed off and let him self get lost in her eyes. She smiled and closed the gap between them. The kiss was just as she would have imagined. It was almost like a marriage proposal to her. She knew that she would always be his and right now… that was all that mattered.

He loved the feeling of her lips upon his. There was nothing in the world that would make him happier then to hold her forever, for her to be his mate and carry his children. But it couldn't be, the rift in time was to great a thing for them to break. There was nothing morally wrong with her staying here, it was the fact that to many things cold go wrong with the rift. The only reason fate let Kagome time travel was because of the jewel. There were other reasons, but the jewel was the tie in factor.

Inuyasha led her through the house showing her all of the rooms.

"My mother left me this house to give to my mate."

Kagome just smiled and snuggled into his side. The house really was beautiful, someone had put a lot of time and effort into building it especially in these times.

"I almost gave it to Kikyo" he went on "But I'm glad I didn't"

Inuyasha spun her around and held her close, resting his chin on her head. "I'm giving it to you" he whispered. Kagome nodded, smiling till tears rolled out of her eyes. There was only two days until she would be gone for good. Two days until the man she loved would be gone.
