Chapter Thirteen: Kiss

A week had passes since Kurama was able to speak with Kagome. He came by every day to be with her and try to make her smile. Kagome liked that Kurama would visit her everyday and always tried hard to make her happy. He was truly a good friend. But she kept thinking that she was growing feelings for him. She felt nervous when those feelings started to surface when he was around. Shippo who was being taken care of by Botan had healed and was now with Kagome in her time. He loved being with Kagome and Kurama. Today was the day that Kurama told Kagome and Shippo that he would take them to the park. She was improving and he had asked her to the park. He thought it would be good for Kagome to get some fresh air and that Shippo would be able to play at the play ground. He was able to teach Shippo how to use is powers to allow him to like a regular human child. He was glad that he was able to be of some help to them both.

Kagome was getting ready as her mom dressed Shippo. The weather had yet again changed. The rain disappeared and the snow came back. Shippo seemed to love to play in the snow. He always wanted to play outside until his hand went numb. Kagome finished getting dressed. She was wearing a light blue long sleeved blouse and a black knee high skirt. She put on her black boots and picked out a nice baby blue sweater. She put her hair in a long braid.

"Kagome I am ready can we go now?!" the kitsune came running up the stairs with his new clothes on and a chocolate bar in one hand.

"We have to wait for Kurama." as soon as she finished the sentence the door bell rang.

"His here lets go!!" Kagome and Shippo walked to greet Kurama.

`````Koenma```````

The murders of the young girls had stopped. But Koenma felt that something was still going to happen. He told Botan that he thought that this demon that was on the loose was probably after a very powerful girl. He believed it was Kagome that he wanted. He told Botan not to inform anyone else unless it was necessary. He did not want to alarm anyone in case he was wrong. Right now was not a good time to bring bad news. Kurama was taking care of Kagome and he was sure that he would want to destroy any possible demon that would consider hurting Kagome. Koenma knew that Kurama and Youko were very found of Kagome. He was sure that Kagome would be his mate in due time and that Kurama would protect her at all costs. He had sent Hiei again to find more information.

"What is going to happen now?" a voice behind him asked. `````The Park`````

Kagome, Kurama and Shippo were walking through the park. Shippo was amazed at the playground and ran towards it. He wanted to be on the swings, slides, and everything else. Kagome was laughing at all the things that Shippo was doing. Kurama was glad that Kagome was laughing and that Shippo was having fun.

When the sun finally began to set Kurama suggested that he take them home. Shippo was tired but still wanted to play.

"Do we have to go now?"

"Shippo we have to go home. Are you not exhasuted and hungry." Kagome told him.

" Can't this be are home?"

Kagome and Kurama were smiling and laughing at the little kitsune's comment.

"How about I bring you and Kagome back tomorrow if she does not mind?" Kurama asked.

"Mamma please!"

"Okay."

Shippo was jumping up and down with happiness.

They began to walk back to the shrine. When they got there Shippo began asking questions.

"Kurama?"

"Yes Shippo."

"How old are you?"

" I am 17 years old."

"Do you like being with me and Kagome?"

"Of course I do."

"Do you want to be my new Daddy?"

Kagome and Kurama began blushing.

"Uh- Shippo you can't ask questions like that." Kagome said in a nervous tone.

They walked in silence until the reached their destination.

"Kurama what time will you be back tomorrow? You can't that you are taking us to the park."

"Okay Shippo."

"Kurama ?" He looked at Kagome.

"Would you like to stay for dinner?" Kagome asked as she was blushing.

"I would be happy to." he was smiling at her. He felt a strong emotion as she blushed.

"I'll go tell your mom, Mamma." Shippo opened the front door and ran inside.

"Kurama thank you for today."

"Well I am glad you enjoyed it." They both were blushing.

They stood there in silence until Kurama spoke up.

"Kagome, I need to tell you something."

"What is it?"

"I ...well.. You see..I ..." he was nervous to tell her how he felt for her and decided to just go for it.

Kagome looked at him in confusion until his lips touched hers. She closed her eyes and responded to his kiss. She was nervous but it felt right. Kurama was more happy when Kagome kissed him back. He wrapped his arms around her as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"What are you two doing?" They broke apart to see Shippo. Kagome and Kurama were blushing.

"Does this mean that Kurama is my new Daddy?" Shippo asked at the two red teens.

They walked inside to have dinner. 'Kurama kissed me and I..kissed him.'
