TODAY'S MY BIRTHDAY. YAY!! And even if ff.net says I updated this story on the 7th, its actually being updated on the 8th, which is my birthday. Also a happy birthday has to go out to my best friend, Drumwar, who shares the same B-day as me. Anyway, I know just what I want for my Birthday. LOTS OF REVIEWS. You'd make me so happy. I know I only updated with one chapter but I'm doing my best. The next chapter will be out soon enough.

xo-Kagome-ox - No there's a different reason you can't kill Tai Azuma. You'll see soon enough.

Tsukinoko1 - Thank you so much for the summary.

Inuyasha 3rd Movie Summary (courtesty of Tsukinoko1)- Inuyasha's father died the night he was born. Inuyasha's mother was a noblelady and still living at home so even though not much is mentioned about their relationship we must assume that they were meeting in secret. The human warrior who was in love with her killed her to "protect" her because she was "obviously being controlled by the demon". Inuyasha's father showed up very last second and brought her back to life with Tenseiga, named his baby and that was about the end of him. The source of Sesshoumaru's resentment seems to be that their father went to go die protecting Izayoi and Inuyasha (he was already injured from Ryukossei and it was pretty clear he wouldn't be surviving another fight) when Sesshoumaru wanted to challenge him for his, uh, throne? Lands, whatever. His father advised him that he needed something to protect before he could rule. At the end of the movie Inuyasha finally gets to see his father's face as his spirit comes to talk to the two brothers. Sesshoumaru still denies that "this Sesshoumaru has anything to protect" but he envisions Rin and Jaken anyway... The movie involves MASSIVE fighting and destruction, a third sword of Inuyasha's father (oh, gotta love the scene where Toutousai delivered Tenseiga to Sesshoumaru by leaving it stuck to a tree with a sign that said "For Sesshoumaru (heart)".) And while there was no kissing in this movie, I wouldn't particularly call it a break. One, (in my opinion) major bit of info is that Inuyasha's rosary is broken partway through, but Rin collects the beads and gives them back to Kagome, so at the end of the movie she tells Inuyasha to close his eyes because she's going to "give him something good" and sticks the rosary back over his head. *heheheh* It definitely seemed longer than the first two movies. Cool ending song, Four Seasons by Amuro Namie.

There is a little bit of OOC on IY's character but please put up with it for the sake of the story and fluff. Thanks.

Disclaimer: I asked for IY or Sango *gets hit on the head with a mysterious boomerang* for my birthday but I got neither so I still can't say I own IY.

A Wish From the Heart

Chapter 31: A Heart Filled Evening and a Movie

"Well now I think you have a good idea of the different types of myths and legends," Azuma addressed the class. "You be surprised what items that are around today can be tied into a myth or legend. Many antiques that you might see could be of the same type used in a legend. So for tomorrow I want you to bring in something of yours that you might think could be part of a myth. If you don't have anything or the item you have is worth a lot don't worry. You don't have to bring it. I just want to show you how much can attached to a legend. That's all for today." In the final minute of the class the students talked amongst themselves.

"So are you going to bring anything in Kagome," Eri asked her.

"Yeah, you have to have some pretty cool stuff," Yuka said.

"I might. I'll have to look and see. I don't want to bring in anything dangerous," Kagome said.

"What could be dangerous about a bunch of old antiques," Eri said. Neither friend knew how dangerous some of the items at the shrine were. The Noh mask was proof of that. Shortly after the bell rang and the students departed from the classroom.

Inuyasha and Kagome walked out of school in a good mood. Well as good of a mood as you could get out of Inuyasha. "Can you believe that assignment we have for that horrible English class?"

"Oh come on Inuyasha, it isn't that bad. All we have to do is pick out a movie in English, watch it and write a report on it," Kagome said. "Since Midoriko's gift, you know how to speak English just fine, you just don't like the teacher."

"Damn right," Inuyasha said. "It's not that I hate having to watch a movie. I like that part. I just don't like having to write a report on it. It sucks when your teacher hates you. No matter how good I write the report he'll pick out every little detail to yell at me for."

Kagome just laughed at him. "Now you know why I was never happy about school." Kagome then decided to change the topic. "So did you like the rest of the day?" Kagome asked trying to make conversation.

"Otherwise it was fine," Inuyasha replied. "At least I got some ramen today, unlike last week."

"Yeah we know what happens when you don't get your ramen," Kagome said remembering his outburst last week.

Inuyasha remembered it but didn't like the memory. "So what movie are we going to watch?"

"I have an idea," Kagome said.

*****

Later on that night Kagome and Inuyasha found themselves on the couch in front of the television ready to watch the movie Kagome had picked out. The rest of Kagome's family were headed out the door. "You should come with us, Kagome. Your mother says the restaurant we're going to is really nice," Mr. Higurashi said.

Before Kagome could say anything her mother spoke up. "Let her go, dear. She and Inuyasha have a school project to work on and it will give them some time alone," Kagome's mother said and whispered the last part and with that they were out the door. Kagome and Inuyasha were alone.

"So what is this movie called?" Inuyasha asked Kagome as he laid himself out on the couch.

"How many times to I have to tell you Inuyasha. It's called Field of Dreams," Kagome told the absentminded hanyou. After placing the DVD in the player and starting it, she pushed Inuyasha back into the couch cushions and laid in front of him.

He was about to yell at Kagome for blocking his view but Inuyasha realized that he liked Kagome snuggled up against him He put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Kagome didn't complain either. She liked being this close to him. Together they watched the movie. Half way through the movie Kagome had to explain to Inuyasha the playing catch with a baseball between father and son was an American tradition. Kagome was deeply enjoying the movie. It was a heart warming film. She had never seen it before but her friends had suggested it which is why she decided to watch it for school. When the ending finally came, Kagome had cried a little. Seeing the guy actually getting a chance to play catch with his father once again touched her heart. She then remembered Inuyasha was with her and how he felt about her crying so she turned her head to look at Inuyasha. She was surprised as she could see a small tear even coming out of his eye. He was actually touched by the movie as well. [AN: I know Inuyasha was a little OOC with that but I had to put that in there. As one person said about the movie on 'I Love the 80s: Strikes Back.' You'd have to have ice running through your veins not to have cried even a little at the end of that movie. And since Inuyasha isn't Sesshomaru, he had to cry just a little. lol.]

"That was a good movie was it?" Kagome asked Inuyasha as she laid on her back looking at Inuyasha to the left of her.

"It was okay," Inuyasha said trying not to show his soft side.

"I know you like it," Kagome said. She then thought for a bit, "I find it ironic that the movie is somewhat similar to what happened to us."

Inuyasha was surprised by this. "How is building a baseball field similar to shard hunting?"

"Your thinking too literal, Inuyasha," Kagome told him. "Don't you realize, in the beginning Ray Kinsella was compelled by that voice to build a baseball field. We were compelled to find all the shards of the Shikon Jewel."

"I still don't get it," Inuyasha said.

"Then let me finish. In the end, Ray got another chance to spend time with his father. So did you, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and myself," Kagome said. "He didn't start out building the field just to bring his father back, and neither did we put together a jewel to bring back our family but in the end it did. This movie is all about getting a second chance at something, just like we have been presented with."

"Okay, I think I understand now," Inuyasha said as he stared at Kagome.

"And its all thanks to you," Kagome said giving him a quick chaste kiss. When she pulled her head back from the kiss she looked at Inuyasha and could see the love for her in his eyes. Inuyasha wasted no time at all in kissing her back but not with a quick kiss. Instead with a long passionate kiss.

Inuyasha took a quick breath. "I love you, so much." Inuyasha watched as tears came to Kagome's eyes. "Kagome, what's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong, it's just that all this time we've been here in my time we haven't had much time for us. Not to mention, I only heard you tell me that once almost a month ago. I was almost worried that you didn't mean it. It's good to hear it again," Kagome told him honestly.

"I will always love you. If I don't say it, it's always in my actions because I'd do anything for you," Inuyasha told her truthfully. Kagome didn't respond but instead leaned in and continued their kissing session from before.

Halfway through their make-out session, they hear the front door open. They both instantly realized it was Kagome's family returning home. In their hurry to separate from each, they both fell off couch and onto the floor with Kagome landing on top of Inuyasha, straddling him. Kagome's mother walked into the room seeing the two of them. "Hello Kagome, Inuyasha. I see you're having fun. We're going to go to bed so you two behave and be careful," Mrs. Higurashi said as she walked out of the room shooing Souta up to bed and then taking her husband with her before he could see Kagome and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha and Kagome just stayed in the same place for a while in total confusion. They couldn't believe her mother hadn't yelled at them or anything. Inuyasha was the first to speak, "Your mother is weird."

"Yeah," Kagome said barely responding.

While Kagome was still spacing out, Inuyasha was becoming very aware of his position. "Ahh, Kagome could you move please?"

Kagome looked down and took in her position. She blushed in embarrassment as she got off of him. "Well I guess we should be getting to bed," she said.

"Yeah," Inuyasha said as they both got up and made their way to bed.
