Title: True Love

Chapter 3: The "L" word

The next two weeks were like in a dream. Kagome had now gone out with Inuyasha three times. Each date was better then the last. Each kiss was sweeter and every time Inuyasha came over to get help with his homework was an hour of pure fun. When Kagome thought she couldn't get any happier, the most wonderful thing happened

Inuyasha was walking Kagome home from the last day of school before winter break

"Kagome would you like to go on a trip with me and my family" Inuyasha asked hopefully

"Well I would have to ask my mom" Kagome replied "But I bet she'll let me"

"Well if she lets you, you need to pack warm."

"Why?" Kagome said with a strange look

"Well it a ski trip" Inuyasha said looking at Kagome "Is that a problem?"

"The only problem is that I don't know how to ski" Kagome said in a small voice

"Hey you can't let what you can't do stop you" Inuyasha said wisely "If you want, I can teach you once we get there"

"You would do that for me?" a smiling Kagome said

"Yes I would" Inuyasha replied

"Why?"

"Because I love you"

Kagome felt her cheeks burn and a shy smile come across her face

"I love you too"

Inuyasha kissed Kagome and watched with a smile as she walked away.
