Chapter 20: A Surprise for You
Some
people come into our lives and quickly go.
Some people move our
souls to dance.
They awaken us to new understanding with the passing
whisper of their wisdom.
Some people make the sky more beautiful
to gaze upon.
They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints
on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.

Inuyasha's pulse is beating fast and hard, he can feel his palms sweating, his heart racing and his voice is stuck on his throat but nevertheless, he said the words with all the courage he has.
"I have something for you", there he said it, that's the first step and he knows damn well that the next part will get even harder. He doesn't understand why is he doing this and surprisingly it was his own idea. No one taught him, no one encouraged him but himself and he just wants to burn himself alive!
"What…what is it?", Kagome asked with trembling lips, for some reason she's nervous and afraid. She doesn't know what to expect, all she could is watch the man before her with patience. She concentrated on his eyes so she won't look down or turn away, just by looking at him she has the courage.
Inuyasha pulled something out of his pocket, a velvet box and he slowly handed it to the shock woman in front of him.
"Open it", he whispered. Kagome feels herself shaking but she took the small box from him and slowly opened it. Her amber-chocolate eyes widen with shock.
"Oh my god!", she gasped as she looked at the beautiful thing she has ever seen in her life. An elegant amethyst droplet necklace, the one that she saw from the jewelry shop the first time they went to the village. Kagome looked at Inuyasha, her eyes sparkling.
"Why did you buy this?", she asked softly. Inuyasha looked down on the ground, his white bangs covering his face so Kagome couldn't tell what his expression is.
"I knew that you liked that necklace when you first saw it….so I….I bought it for you", he answered, finding the ground intriguing for the first time. Kagome's eyes soften as she looked at the necklace adoringly.
"Oh Inuyasha…..", she said breathlessly.
"Do…do you like it?", he asked while still looking down, his cheeks tainted with red.
"No", was her reply and Inuyasha clenched his fists. She didn't like the gift he gave her, he wasted his efforts. Damn himself!
"I love it!", he heard her and in a flash Kagome embraced him tight. Inuyasha is stunned, he thought she didn't like the necklace but she said she LOVES it. Regaining his senses, he hugged her back with the same strength or perhaps even more. He hugged her like he would never let go, covering his face on the nape of her neck as he smells the lovely scent of her that he knows too well.
Unwillingly, they let go of each other which Inuyasha disapproves, he wanted to have her in his arms again.
"Could you put this on me?", she asked timidly, he smiled at her bashfulness.
"Sure", was his reply then gently locked the necklace around her neck. Kagome touched the necklace as she turned around facing him with a bright smile, her eyes glistening with happiness.
"Thank you", she said then she leaned in and pecked his cheek and she left, bolting inside the castle, excited to tell this to her friends, leaving Inuyasha in his stupor as he recalls on what just happened 10 minutes ago.
He can feel himself blushing as he touched the cheek that she had kissed, he can't stop himself from grinning at the memory. One thing is for sure……
This was definitely worth it……..
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
Sango's scream echoed all over the hallway.
"Sssshhhh! Do you want everyone to here you!", Kagome hissed as she dragged her best friend inside her room before Sango could cause anymore trouble.
"Sorry", she said meekly as the two of them sat on Kagome's bed. Sango couldn't help herself but feel giddy when Kagome told her that Inuyasha gave her a beautiful necklace.
"Can I see it again?", Sango asked anxiously, Kagome sighed as she pulled her long hair up so that her friend could see the necklace clearly. Sango was awe-struck.
"I so envy you! I wish someone would do something so sweet like that for me", Sango sighed as she daydreamed on her imaginary prince. Kagome chuckled at her antics. Sango snapped out of her thoughts as she averted her attention back to Kagome.
"So what else happened?", Sango asked, eager to know the fairytale of her best friend's life. Kagome laughed nervously.
"Well….I…kinda pecked him on the cheek", Kagome answered. Sango sighed with disappointment. Kagome looked at her.
"What?"
"You should have kissed him on the lips you know"
"What! Are you out of your mind, why would I do that?", Sango scoffed
"I think it's kinda obvious already on why Kagome"
"No it's not obvious. I don't know what you're talking about"
Sango sighed
"You're in love"
"Shut up!", Kagome spat and that made Sango mad.
"Why are you denying the truth!", Kagome didn't say anything, she focused herself on the pillow. Sango is pissed off right now.
"Is it because of him? You know he is NOT coming back! Not ever! Don't tell me that you still-"
"No", was Kagome's reply. Sango calmed herself as she looked at her with a confuse look on her face. Kagome sighed.
"A part of me has finally let him go and there's another part of me that is hoping that he back"
Sango couldn't believe what she was hearing. Here she is with her best friend who just received the most beautiful present she has ever received and she is still lingering over another man. This is a bloody mess!
"But why?"
"Because I have some unfinished business with that man"
"And what about Inuyasha?"
"He will just have to wait on my decision"
"Ok fine but tell me this……", Kagome look at her expectantly
"You do feel something for Inuyasha, right?", she asked with hopeful eyes. Kagome smiled a bitter smile.
"Over the past months I've been here, I have realized that things are changing between us. I do feel a connection with Inuyasha and that bond could be stronger than I think it could. Whenever I'm with him, something unexpected always happens whether it is good or bad but I never regret the experience because he is there. Sometimes I couldn't help but always think of him and I wish I could die right now because of this madness!"
"So for short, you're crazy over him", Sango concluded with an amusing look. Kagome grinned.
"Oh yeah", was her reply. Sango laughed.
"Ooohhh….you two-timer!", Sango teased and Kagome threw a pillow at her.
"Oh shut up!", Kagome said as she laughed.
BOOM!
The people are in awe as they watch the various displays of the colorful fireworks on the starry sky.
"This has been one eventful festival for all of us", said Izayoi as she watched the beautiful fireworks on the balcony with Hoshi and Sesshomaru. Hoshi nodded in agreement.
"Very, I was quite impressed with Kagome's performance today. I never knew she has a skill to be a fighter", Hoshi commented. Sesshomaru smirked.
"We all did", Sesshomaru spoke
"Speaking of which, where are Kagome and Inuyasha? I haven't seen them since the big banquet tonight", said Izayoi and she noticed an evil glint in her son's eyes. She turned to him with her arms cross as she looked at him with a skeptical look.
"I have a feeling you know something about this, Sesshomaru"
Sesshomaru smirked. "All I know is that the two are just doing the same thing we are doing right now. Admiring the view of the sky"
They turned around when they heard the sound of the piano.
They saw Sango and Rin playing the grand piano together while Miroku prepares himself to sing a duet with Sango.
Fancy
meeting you alone in the crowd
Couldn't help but notice your
smile
While everybody else around us is going about
Can we just
stop and talk awhile?
"Oi! Where are we going!", Inuyasha yelled from afar as he catches up to Kagome's horse with his.
"Just follow me!", she replied as she dashed off to their destination, Inuyasha following behind with skepticism on what is she planning.
Kagome feels excited and anxious to show Inuyasha what she has in store for him, she knew that he would appreciate it and he will never forget this night. She will make it memorable for him. They are close to where they are headed. She wonders if her heart is racing so fast because of the speed she is in now or because of that strange feeling in her heart again.
I've
been often told our world's growing old
And that friends are
harder to find
Do tell me more about yourself
We could share a
thought or two
Now who would mind?
This girl must be crazy!, Inuyasha thought as he followed her in a very fast pace, they are miles away from the village but they are still in the kingdom's property. He looked at his surroundings. He has never been here before, he wonders where is Kagome is taking them.
After eating such a bountiful feast tonight he planned on hitting the hay, lying comfortably on his soft bed but here he is, out in the fields or wherever the hell he is, following Kagome at a fast rate.
But I guess I don't mind…..I'm with her, aren't I? It's just……just what the hell is she thinking about?
Maybe
then we could go for a ride
Drive down to the countryside
Get
away from the gray
And frenzied hurly-burly of the city life
Inuyasha saw Kagome slowing down, she must have been waiting for him to catch up. Few seconds later, they ride together side by side.
"I can still hear the fireworks from here", she said as she looked ahead.
"Just where are you taking me?"
Kagome turned to him with a smile.
"Don't worry, you'll know soon enough", she replied. Where almost there, she said to herself. Inuyasha could smell something familiar, it's the scent of salty water.
Is it a beach?, he thought
"Here we are", she said as they turned a corner and there he saw, as he thought, a beach. The waves clashing to the shore and moving back to the blue ocean depth. Kagome got down from her horse and Inuyasha followed suit.
Kagome took off her sandals then she walked towards the sand. Inuyasha watched her, dumbfounded on what's going on. Kagome turned around, looking at him with a playful look.
"Why are standing like that, you look like a statue. Get your butt down here!", she exclaimed with a grin.
"Keh!", he took off his boots and followed her. They walked on the sandy beach side by side, feeling comfortable in each others' presence. Inuyasha can feel himself relaxing as he listens to the sound of the waves and feeling the cold breeze on his face.
Kagome plopped herself down on the white sand as she looks at the starry night.
Inuyasha sat down beside her as he stares at her. Kagome noticed his gaze upon her and she looked at him with a questioning look.
"What?"
"I still don't know why we are here"
Early
yet to say what lies ahead
It's the first day of the rest of our
lives
Can we just stop and talk awhile
Get to know each
other
Who are we to know?
Kagome grinned at him then looked up at the sky. Her smile brightened.
"There's your answer", she said.
Inuyasha quirk a brow then followed her gaze at the sky. His eyes widened. The dark sky had lit up to an enchanting mystical light. Different colors touching each other as they glowed brightly in the night. It is something he has never seen in his entire life but he had hoped for it since his childhood but he has given up on it for he thought he would never have the chance but he is staring at his childhood wish right now, the aurora.
"Surprise", Kagome whispered in his ear and he suddenly feels warm and fuzzy inside.
"How did you know?", he asked, still looking at the enchanting light. Kagome has a small smile on her face as she looks at the horizon, seeing the reflection of the aurora on the deep blue sea.
"You're mother told me about it so I asked help from Sesshomaru to plan this. Plus I saw pictures of you when you were a kid. You looked very cute back then", she said with a small laugh.
"Beautiful isn't it?", she asked.
"Yeah…….very beautiful……"
Kagome nodded then averted her gaze to Inuyasha and surprisingly he was looking at her already with a deep and intense look in his eyes.
Love
could be waiting at the end
'Round that bend and so
Let's stop
and talk awhile
Kagome could not help but stare into his eyes, she seems mesmerized and doesn't have the power to turn away. Then she realized that their faces are just merely inches apart and slowly Inuyasha planted a kiss on her luscious lips. It was short yet sweet and loving and she kissed him back. Inuyasha slowly moved his face away so he could look at her. Kagome slowly opened her eyes from the spell she was captivated in.
Her eyes widened.
Inuyasha suddenly embraced her, tight. She could feel her legs weakening and she was thankful that Inuyasha is holding her right now or she might just faint right then and there.
"Thank you", he whispered in her ear and Kagome smiled as she hugged him back.
"Nah, I think we're even right now", she joked. Inuyasha stifled a chuckle.
"Oh, you should also thank your brother for this"
Inuyasha groaned. Kagome laughed, squeezing him tight and Inuyasha doesn't mind at all.
I definitely owe Sesshomaru for this one…….
Let's stop and talk awhile………………
This one is very sweet, isn't it? Hope you guys love this chapter! Ummm...I hope that no one is bothered when I made this into a songfic,hehehehe!
