Hee hee Hi! Alright, how long has it been…. A week or so:S Anyway, thank yous for your reviews! Here it is!.

Recap:

"Sorry for the mess. Matsu and I have been really busy lately." Kagome apologized. Inuyasha turned slightly towards her, "Matsu?" he asked. "Yeah, Matsu is my room mate, we met shortly before graduation. We became good friends and decided to get a place her together, she's really nice." Inuyasha walked up to a painting that was hanging a little crooked on the wall. He straitened it out and said, "Did you do these?" Kagome smiled, "Yeah, pretty much all of them. Matsu did a few too, but mostly just photographs." She said. Inuyasha trailed his fingertips lightly over one painting, "They're….really nice, Kagome." He said dazily. Kagome blushed a little, "Uhh, thanks, ummmm, so, you hungry?"

FINALLY

Chapter Five- Just Like Old Times 

(Feudal Era)

The setting sun, it was just marvelous to watch in such a pure, and quiet place. Really it was. Miroku squinted his eyes to keep the still bright sun from damaging his eye sight. Sango and Shippou were just inside Keade's old hut, preparing a small meal for the three-err, four. Yes, that's right. Sango was pregnant. After four years, they finally got the courage to vow each other nothing but happiness. And after the passing of Lady Keade, and Inuyasha's sorrow only making it worse, happiness was something they desperately needed right about now.

Meanwhile, while Sango and Shippou were finishing with the preparations of dinner, Miroku was in deep thought. 'Inuyasha….he said that he loved Kagome-sama.' Miroku smiled, happy that the heart broken hanyou had finally realized his true feeling. But that, that was over 3 and half years ago that Inuyasha had that realization.

Sango silently left the hut through the worn mat covering the entry way to the hut.With slow, quiet steps, she made her way to settle on the porch, next to Miroku.

"You're thinking again, Miroku." Sango smiled lovingly, yet a little worried at what had him in such deep thought, though she already had a thought. "Yes, my dear Sango, you know me better than anyone." He gently gave a peck on the lips. "What are you thinking about?" Miroku just sighed. "Inuyasha right?" Miroku chuckled lightly and nodded. "Yes, I…It's just, why wouldn't the well open before? After four long years, Inuyasha suffered, not only because the love of his life wasn't with him, but he had to live with the guilt knowing that he had caused her to leave. After all this time, and the well just suddenly opens." He wondered.

Sango thought for a second, "Yes, I know. And a few days before it opened, the area had that strange aura surrounded it. Mmhmmm. Do you think maybe Naraku is still alive?" she asked, a bit frightened at the thought. He shook his head, "No, I don't. There is too much proof of his death. Besides, without the Shikon no Tama, what power does he have?" Sango nodded at his thought. "Yes, I suppose you're right." She sighed as she looked out at the setting sun with Miroku. It was silent for a moment until Sango whispered a bit sleepily, " I hope Kagome still trusts Inuyasha enough to understand what really happened, don't you?" Miroku slimed warmly and said, "Yes, of course I do. Inuyasha obviously still loves Kagome, and I wouldn't be surprised if Kagome still felt the same for Inuyasha." He turned to look straight at Sango and took her chin lightly in his hand, lifting it to his gaze. Then he whispered, "Besides, what is a man without the one he loves?" Sango smiled and they shared true love's kiss.

(With Kag and Inu)

Inuyasha was still very preoccupied in the paintings on the wall. "Was Kagome this good when I meet her?" he whispered to himself, but Kagome hardly heard a thing. "Inuyasha…" she said. Inuyasha snapped out of it and turned to her. "What was that?" "I asked if you were hungry." She said simply, looking at him a little annoyed. "Oh, yeah!" he cheered, unaware that he looked sort of like a hungry Shippou, just as Kagome remembered.

"Hee hee, you looked just like Shippou there for a sec." She giggled. Inuyasha quirked an eyebrow, "Hey! Don't compare me to that runt!" he complained, chuckling a bit though at how funny Kagome looked, laughing at him. Kagome's laughter died down as she looked at the crossed armed hanyou, "sorry" she giggled. Inuyasha smiled suspiciously at her, "Yeah yeah, now what was this you talking about food?" he said. His stomach growled.

Kagome laughed at the sound and walked passed him, lightly patting his stomach, "come on dog boy, you're obviously hungry." Inuyasha lightly grasped her wrist and turned to her, blushing a little, then quickly let go, "sorry" he said quietly. Kagome just watched his form as he stood there, ashamed of something. "Inuaysha…RING DE DE LA DOOO DUM DUM DE DUM!" Kagome frowned and ran to her ringing cell phone. As she picked it up she noticed inuyasha, hair sticking almost straight up, "God woman! What the hell was that!" he breathed. Kagome giggled, then ansered her cell.

"Hello?"

"Kagome? Where the hell are you? You're seriously late! Or did you just forget that you were working….again? You're lucky I'm letting you keep this job!"

"I'm sorry, I just….something unexpected came up." Kagome said.

"This better be good Kagome Higurashi" her boss sighed.

"It is….It's just, well, family matters. I'll be in tomorrow as promised."

" You better be!"

"Yes, I will, thank you, bye." Inuyasha heard Kagome say, coming from the hallway. Inuyasha walked to Kagome, asking who and what that was? Kagome sighed, "That was my boss, I work for her, and I was supposed to be working right now." "D-do you want me to leave…? So you can work?" Inuyasha asked, feeling a bit bad for causing her job distress. "NO! Inuaysha, it's alright. Actually, I really do think I need a day off anyway." She smiled, and he smiled in his mind. "Now, come on. I skipped breakfast this morning and I'm DIEING to eat something." She said dramatically. Inuyasha followed her to the kitchen, where she instantly started rummaging the fridge and cupboards.

"Inuyasha, have you tried anything from my time, other than what I brought to the Feudal Era?" she asked, looking towards him. "Uhh, I had that steiake (spelt wrong on purpose, supposed to be steak) once. I think." Kagome bit her lip, "Hmmm, well, I don't think I have any steak." She giggled. "But, I practically live off of ramen, It's really cheap here. Is ramen ok? For the time being at least…?" "YES!" he said instantly. "I thought so." She laughed and fixed him a bowl, and herself a bowl of cereal.

While eating, the conversation of exactly what the tv box thingy did again, and what a cell phone was, covered almost an hour. Kagome yawned very lightly suddenly, as well as Inuyasha, following after her. Though his yawn was long and very large. Kagome smiled warmly at him. "Oi, what are you looking at?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome shook her head, "nothing, you just yawned…it was funny" she laughed again. "You sure do laugh a lot. Just like you used to." He said. Realizing what he just said, and rather affectionately at that too, he blushed lightly. Kagome just said, "and you're incredibly stubborn and irritating, like you used to be…..I'm glad." Inuyasha turned to her, still blushing.

Silence again.

"Haha, this seems to be happening a lot eh?" Kagome laughed. "Huh?" INuyasha asked, confused. "We don't really have much to talk about. Well, we do, but, we wont say anything. You know what I think?" she asked, smiling. "What?" he cocked an eyebrow. "I think we should pretend that, you know, it's just like old times. Because, it sort of is, isn't it?" she said, grinning. Inuyasha smiled, much to Kagome's surprise, and agreed," Ya, I think so too." With that, Kagome stood and said, with a fist in the air, "Alright then! Let's go!" Inuyasha gave her a 'are you crazy?' look but sighed and stood also, lazily lifted his fist in the air. Kagome smiled widely and hit their fists together, like superheroes would, and ran to the door, grabbing her coat. "How about a walk around town? We can even go out for some dinner later." Inuyasha followed and walked next to her, "Sounds good." "I mean, when have you ever dressed normal before, right? We might as well take advantage of the moment." She giggled. "Hey! What's wrong with my fire rat cloth!" he said, annoyed. "Oh nothing! I was just kidding! You look…..nice in you fire rat…." She trailed off. Once again, Inuyasha blushed.

With a faint blush creeping upon Kagome's cheek as well, she grabbed her purse, Inuyasha hat, and both headed down the stairs. What a day this was going to be;)
