A/N is anyone reading this? (see chapter 2 for disclaimer)
Kagome and Inuyasha walked into the village followed by stares and whispered words from the villagers. "I can hear you ya know!" Kagome yelled fuming at the words of the villagers. "Calm down Kagome, they don't mean anything" Inuyasha said quietly.
Kagome realized that he had to deal with the same stares his whole life. She frowned a little and took his hand as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Inuyasha blushed furiously but didn't remove his hand from hers.
They reached Keade's hut and found Sango and Miroku inside both asleep on the floor Miroku's hand inching dangerously close to Sango's backside.
Inuyasha smiled evilly as he spotted Shippo asleep in Kagome's sleeping bag "hey runt wake up" he yelled scaring the kitsune out of his wits as he jumped a foot in the air.
"SIT" Kagome screamed as Inuyasha met his good friend, the ground. "What did ya do that for!" Inuyasha said from his crater. "you scared poor Shippo" Kagome said gesturing to the kitsune now hiding behind Kagome.
The noise had of course woken up all of the other inhabitants of the hut accept Keade who was still asleep. "Sorry I woke you up" Kagome said looking embarrassed. "and what lady Kagome may I ask were you doing with Inuyasha that you felt he need to disappear into the woods for hours" Miroku asked and you could almost hear the lecherous thoughts turning in his head.
Before anyone could reply a huge boomerang hit him in the back of the head. Kagome and Inuyasha both blushed furiously. They proceeded to recount the story of there encounter with Midoriko and the issue of immortality. "So we can't die" Sango asked unsurely. "Yeah I guess" Kagome said. "what about my Kazanna?" Miroku asked. "I don't know but we can find out cant we." Inuyasha said.
They stepped outside and Miroku pulled away the beads that kept his wind tunnel sealed. The wind erupted from his hand and he quickly sealed it. "It's still there but it can't kill me?" he asked "I suppose so" Kagome said
They went to sleep that night all with a lot to contemplate. Inuyasha slept with his back against he wall and his sword on his shoulder. Kagome not far from him with Shippo next to her curled against her chest.
Sango and Miroku took up the remainder of the space in the hut spaced away from each other until Miroku thought Sango was asleep before inching closer to her until he was just close enough to grope her but far enough to away to still roll away quickly if necessary.
Inuyasha was thinking of Kagome and the surprise he had thought up for her. Once everyone had gone to sleep he scribbled a quick note to Kagome and took off to the village where he could have his gift to Kagome made. He smiled to himself as he ran.
Kagome woke up the next morning to Sango's yell and a resounding slapping sound as her eyes met Miroku nursing a new handprint. Sango was still muttering about lecherous monks. Kagome read Inuyasha'a note and frowned
Kagome,
I will be gone for a few days please don't worry
Love,
Inuyasha
She shrugged off the worry that had settled itself in her heart and went about making breakfast. The week went by and she grew worried. On the eighth day of his absence Kagome saw a red dot moving quickly toward the village. Kagome smiled a bit as she watched Inuyasha approach.
Inuyasha smiled as he saw using his keen vision the outline of Kagome standing on the edge of the village 'almost there' he thought
