Most of these people are new and I would like to thank them for taking the time to read my fanfic.

Chapter 7-the date!

Inuyasha's finger pushed the small button and the door bell rang. With his great hearing he could hear the jingle of the door bell ring through out the house and feet come running to the door. Inuyasha held his breath as the door swung open. But to his disappointment, Sango answered the door.

Sango had changed, Inuyasha didn't know, into a black T-shirt that went down to her knees and some long pajama pants. "What do you want?" Sango asked in a weird voice.

"I'm here to pick up Kagome, if that's alright with you." Inuyasha said coolly.

"Fine with me. But you do anything bad, mean, or not polite to her tonight you'll have my foot up your..."

"Sango, thank you for answering the door." Kagome said putting a hand on Sango's shoulder and smiling warmly at Inuyasha.

"Kagome...are you...um...are you ready?" Inuyasha asked staring at Kagome. Her white dress flowing over her like light, and her glistening hair making her look like an angel.

"Yeah!" Kagome said walking past Sango over to Inuyasha. "Are you?" she asked with a smile making Inuyasha blush.

"Yeah." Inuyasha said in a raspy voice.

"Well, you guys have fun." Sango said closing the door, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome standing on Kagome's front porch.

"So Inuyasha, you wanted to take me somewhere tonight?" Kagome said blushing. After all Inuyasha was looking at her like she was the most beautiful star in the sky.

"Keh, yeah." Inuyasha said grabbing Kagome's hand and pulling her into his chest. "Kagome you look so beautiful. I thought you should know." Inuyasha whispered into Kagome's ear. He could feel the heat rising in her blood and it made him smile.

"Thank you Inuyasha you look wonderful." Kagome said leaning back a little in Inuyasha's arms so she could look at him.

"Now, time for the fun stuff!" Inuyasha said letting go of Kagome and just grabbing her hand. He walked them over to his black 1967 Mustang. He opened the door for Kagome and she got in without hesitation. Inuyasha got into the drivers seat and started the car with a loud 'VROOM!' he back out of his driveway and the headed for Seujo Park.

The ride was fairly quiet. Kagome kept sneaking glances at Inuyasha and he did the same.

'I wonder if Inuyasha's as nervous as I am?' Kagome thought looking over at Inuyasha and smiling once again.

'Gosh if Kagome only knew how nervous I am she would laugh at me. She looks so beautiful tonight. This date is going to be wonderful.' Inuyasha thought smiling over at Kagome, then looking back onto the road.

After about 15 minutes they reached Seujo Park. Inuyasha got out and opened Kagome's door and offered her his arm, she took it happily. Inuyasha walked them over to a small table that was in the middle of a field of soft green grass, and it was lined with trees. Making it the best place for a romantic setting. Some of the trees had lights in them casting a wonderful glow on the couple that now sat at the small table.

Inuyasha smiled at Kagome as she took in the surrounding area. "So Kagome, do you like it?" Inuyasha asked.

"I love it! It's so great!" Kagome said looking at Inuyasha then back at the surroundings.

"I'm glad. Any minute now another surprise will be washed over you." Inuyasha said. 'That was so stupid. But Her sent says she thought it was sweet.' Inuyasha thought as he looked at Kagome who was smiling like a fool.

"Inuyasha..." Kagome started, but was cut off by the sound of a lovely voice singing the note So. Kagome looked around and found the stage to her right. On the stage was a man and woman standing side by side and behind them was an orchestra. There were violins, tubas an instrument of every kind. At the moment they were all playing the same note, and with the different sounds...it meshed beautifully. Kagome looked at Inuyasha and smiled widely. The violins started to play a solo and the man and woman sang softly setting a wonderful back round sound to the violins.

"So Kagome you like everything so far?" Inuyasha asked. He could see it in Kagome's eyes when she looked at him that she loved it.

"I think I love you." Kagome said turning back to the stage to watch the violinist work at making the radiant sound.

"Keh." was Inuyasha's reply. He blushed and looked towards the stage as well. 'Was she serious? Or was she just, basically, thanking me for all this?' Inuyasha thought glancing at Kagome again only to see her looking at him.

"Inuyasha. Do you want to dance. This lovely music is perfect, we shouldn't waste it by just sitting here." Kagome said standing up and grabbing Inuyasha's hand.

"Sure." Inuyasha said letting Kagome guide them closer to the stage. Kagome turned around and grabbed Inuyasha's other hand. Inuyasha pulled her closer to him and they started dancing. The musicians must have seen the couples closeness because they played a nice soothing slow song.

Kagome leaned her head on Inuyasha's chest and breathed in the smell of his axe body spray. She leaned in closer and smuggled into his chest and let her body fall into his as they slowly danced. As if responding to her, Inuyasha tightened his hold on her waist and back pulling her closer to him. He leaned his head down and nuzzled her neck with his nose and breathed in her sent. Vanilla and Cherry Blossom filled his nose in one satisfying whiff.

'I wonder if this feeling will last forever. Being with her makes me feel...wait! What am I thinking? We just met. But even then...I liked her from the start. And here she is. In my arms.' Inuyasha thought taking another whiff of her sent as it blew around him in the cool breeze.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered snuggling into Inuyasha even more.

"Yeah?" Inuyasha answered nervously.

"This is the best night ever. Thank you." Kagome said. Then she leaned up and kissed Inuyasha's cheek softly.

Inuyasha's eyes went wide and he smiled warmly down at the girl he held to him. He could still feel the warmth of her lips playing across his cheek. He wished that warmth would never fade, but the soft breeze carried it away. They danced for about I'd say 10 minutes then finally Inuyasha spoke.

"Kagome, are you hungry?" Inuyasha asked. He didn't want to move from where they were but it was a date they were on and he promised food. Plus he was starving. And hunger was getting the best of him.

"Yeah, but can we stay like this a little longer? Just a minute or two." Kagome asked looking up at Inuyasha and smiled when he nodded yes.

'I'll stay this way forever, just for her.' Inuyasha thought closing his eyes and letting the wonderful sound of the orchestra playing and the brilliant smell of Kagome drifting through the air.

After a minute or two Kagome straightened a little much to Inuyasha's disappointment. "Inuyasha, can we eat?" Kagome asked smiling.

"Sure." Inuyasha said pulling back. He left his hand on her waist as they walked slowly back to the table. When they got there two covered plates were on the table, steam still coming out of the little holes in the silver platter. They sat down and opened the dishes to reveal yummy looking food. It was chicken covered with a chocolate sauce and some angel hair pasta. (kind of like in the movie Chocolate...at the old lady's birthday party.)

Inuyasha dug in right away and soon had some chocolate on the sides of his mouth. Kagome on the other hand ate slowly, so she wouldn't get any of the chocolate on her dress.

"So Kagome, where's your mom been? I haven't seen her in forever." Inuyasha said taking another big bite of chicken.

"Hiding in the shadows. She's been trying to 'find herself' or something." Kagome said smiling at Inuyasha who smiled back. "So how's Miroku? I feel bad for yelling at him the other day. I took what he said the wrong way." Kagome said looking down at her plate.

"He's a jerk, no need to feel bad." Inuyasha said looking up from his plate and frowning when he saw Kagome looking down. "And plus he said he felt bad for what he said." Inuyasha said, even though he hadn't seen Miroku since then, he needed to say something.

"Really? That makes me feel better." Kagome said with a small laugh. "By the way Inuyasha, I'm having a wonderful time. This is the best, I can't believe you went through all this for me." Kagome said smiling again. A new song came on and it was full of life and excitement, it matched Kagome's tone.

"Well it's been worth it." Inuyasha said smiling and biting into a bread stick.

"You flatter me Inuyasha! I'm just glad you are having a good time." Kagome said with a laugh.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, the last time I was on a date, lets just say, my date thought I was boring. And never called me back." Kagome said in a friendly voice.

"Your anything but boring! What baka could think that? Your full of life and beauty. Most of all your interesting and funny." Inuyasha said with pointed fork towards the surroundings. Meaning...he wanted to know who on earth could think that.

"Ha ha ha! Inuyasha, are you mad at some loser, who didn't think I was interesting?" Kagome asked with a big laugh.

"No!" Inuyasha said with a blush.

"Well I think it's cute." Kagome said reaching over the table to run a finger over Inuyasha's right cheek. "Plus, no guy has ever made me so happy. Like on a date, and well everything." Kagome said pulling her hand back so she could take another bite of the pasta.

"Keh, it's no big deal." Inuyasha said blushing an even darker shade of red.

"I'm so full. This food was really great, but I couldn't eat another bit." Kagome said leaning back in her seat and patting her tummy. She only left a couple bites left, other than that, her plate was clean.

"Are you going to finish that?" Inuyasha asked moving his plate out of the way to put hers in front of him.

"No, you can have it." Kagome said handing it to him.

"Thanks." Inuyasha said pouring the food into his mouth.

"You sure are a fast eater." Kagome said as Inuyasha whipped his mouth with his napkin.

"Yeah, sorry." Inuyasha said blushing.

"No, it's ok. It's actually quite entertaining!" Kagome said giggling. "And it could come in handy." Kagome said.

"Right. So Kagome are you ready to go?" Inuyasha asked whipping his mouth again.

"I guess. I am getting tired." Kagome said, then right after she left out a big yawn.

"Yeah sleepy head we should get you home." Inuyasha said with a big grin.

"Yeah I guess your right." Kagome said standing up and yawning again.

"Kagome you need some help there?" Inuyasha asked walking over to Kagome and putting an arm around her waist.

"Just a shoulder to lean on." Kagome said putting her head on Inuyasha's arm as they walked to Inuyasha's car. They got in and started the drive home.

In the car Kagome drifted to sleep. While Inuyasha drove.

Once Inuyasha arrived at his house he shook Kagome awake. "Kagome, were home." Inuyasha said tapping Kagome's shoulder. 'Did I just say we're home? I think I'm going crazy.' Inuyasha thought as Kagome's eyes fluttered open.

"I'm awake now Inuyasha." Kagome said softly.

"Good, let me walk you to your door." Inuyasha said taking Kagome's hand and leading her to her front porch.

As they reached the door Kagome turned around to face Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, thank you for the wonderful evening." Kagome said squeezing Inuyasha's hand and giving him a warm smile.

"It was my pleasure." Inuyasha said lifting Kagome's hand up to his mouth and giving it a small kiss.

"Inuyasha, I have something to give you." Kagome said cupping Inuyasha's face in her hands.

"What?" Inuyasha asked his eyes wide.

"This." Kagome said. She then tip toed up to his height and kissed him on the lips. After a moment Inuyasha broke from the shock and kissed back. It wasn't a dirty kiss or anything like that, but it was full of passion. The kiss lasted about 30 seconds, which is pretty long.

"Now that's the best gift I could ask for." Inuyasha said putting his head down and nuzzling Kagome's neck.

"Well I'm glad you liked it. But I really need to go to bed before I fall asleep in your arms." Kagome said pulling away from Inuyasha a bit.

"Alright. I'll see you tomorrow Kagome." Inuyasha said letting go of Kagome and letting her walk into her house.

"Oh, good night Inuyasha." Kagome said sticking her head through her front door to see Inuyasha.

"Good night." Inuyasha said with a smile. Kagome closed the door and Inuyasha walked down the steps to Kagome's front yard, then her turned around to face the front door. "My Kagome." he whispered. And with that he walked out of her yard and into his, then into his house.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome walked into her house and into the living room only to see a couch, some comfy looking chairs, a coffee table and other living room necessities. Smack dab in the middle of the room was Kagome's mom, Sango, Shippo, and Sota all standing triumphantly.

"What's going on guys?" Kagome asked walking closer to the group.

"We set up the living room honey. While you were gone." Mrs. H said walking over to Kagome and hugging her.

"Mom?" Kagome asked a little shocked by her moms actions.

"I'm back honey. I'm back. Grandpa came to me in a dream and told me what I was doing wrong. I'm back." Mrs. H whispered to her daughter, while still hugging her.

"Oh. Well I'm glad your out of that stupid faze!" Kagome said laughing.

"Well, it's late so I'm off to bed. You kids don't stay up to late." Mrs. H said. She let go of Kagome and walked down the hall to her room.

"So, Kagome did you have a nice date?" Sango asked walking over to her best friend and putting am arm around her shoulders.

"Sango, it was wonderful! It was so...I don't know! But it was Great!" Kagome said with a hint of wonder in her eyes.

"Sounds like my sister is in love." Sota said from the stair case.

"Shut-up!" Kagome yelled. Then Sota ran upstairs to his room. Kagome can be kinda scary. "Anyway, as I was saying it was so romantic. Everything was so perfect!" Kagome said.

"I see. well I wonder what tomorrow will hold for the new found lovers." Sango said with a laugh.

"We aren't lovers. We aren't even going out." Kagome said sitting on a leather chair. She put her head in her hands and frowned. "Even after all that. He didn't ask me out and you know my rule. Never ask out a guy. So I'm stuck. Waiting for him to make a move." Kagome said looking up at Sango, who had a smile playing across her face. "What's so funny Sango? I'm in a real pickle here!" Kagome standing up and pointing at Sango like she were a bad dog. (or something)

"First off, I think you really like Inuyasha, second, you need to chill out. I'm just having a good time is all." Sango said with a small laugh at the end.

"Well nice to know you have my back." Kagome said walking over to the stairs. "I'm going to go...sleep. Shippo, you want to come?" Kagome asked looking at Shippo as he stared up at her with his big green eyes.

"Sure, I am really sleepy." Shippo said walking up to Kagome. Kagome picked Shippo up and carried him up the stair and into her room.

Kagome set Shippo down on her bed and then walking into her closet, grabbed cloths and then went to the bathroom. When she came out she had on some long pajama pants that were blue with white clouds all over. She had on a white T-shirt, it has 'Clouds' written across the chest. She walked over to her bed to find Shippo asleep. Kagome crawled in next to Shippo. Right when her head hit the pillow she was off to sleep.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha walked into his house only to be met with Miroku. Well Miroku and some girl. "Miroku, what the hell are you doing?" Inuyasha asked crossing his arms. At the sound of his voice Miroku stopped talking to the girl, gabbed her arm threw her out the front door, then ran back to the living room to act like nothing happened.

"Why nothing my good friend. I was just, jogging around your living room." Miroku said whipping a bead of sweat from his four head.

"Is that so? Well, are you going to be staying over tonight?" Inuyasha asked sitting on a chair opposite of Miroku.

"Yeah, no where else to go. Plus, I heard about your big date with Kagome, and I want some details." Miroku said bouncing around in his seat like a kid waiting for an ice cream.

"Well first off, we danced. Listened to music, ate. Drove home kissed." Inuyasha said the last part in a whisper.

"What was that? You did her? Well my good man, I didn't think you had it in you." Miroku said with a perverted smile

"I didn't do her you idiot! We kissed! Right away! You always have to be such a pervert! You really are a lecher!" Inuyasha yelled while throwing random objects at Miroku's head.

"Inuyasha, now, now! Lets not be rash. Everyone knows you love her. Just give me some details." Miroku said.

"We kissed! What more detail can there be?" Inuyasha asked throwing himself on his big leather couch.

"I don't know. Was there any tough action?" Miroku asked with a shrug.

"No, it was a clean kiss. No added stuff." Inuyasha said laying back. "But she is amazing. A few days and I'm head over heals for this girl. How can that be?" Inuyasha asked.

"Maybe she put a spell on you, to make you fall in love with her." Miroku said situating himself on a red velvet chair.

"I would have smelled that type of thing, and felt it. I think I really fell for her naturally." Inuyasha with a small sigh.

"My dear friend, you have wooed her, all you need now...make your move. The ball is in your court my friend." Miroku said with a smile.

"Whatever. It doesn't concern you. What I plan on doing next is my business, not yours." Inuyasha said standing up. "I'm going to bed." he then walked up the spiral stair case and into his room. He quickly through off his shirt and pants and jumped on his bed in boxers. He only had one last thought before he drifted to sleep and that was 'Kagome.'

-----------------------------------------------------------------
