'Don't start with me.' Emmett thinks when he sees Edward look between them and smirk.
Kagome blushes at the look that Edward gives them, she turns towards Emmett and gives him a shy smile.
"Thanks for walking me home, Emmett."
Emmett smiles back and gets closer to Kagome, "My pleasure, Kagome." He says as he takes her hand and brings it up to his lips, causing Kagome to blush even more.
By this time Bella has joined Edward on the porch, she and Edward look at each other stunned. What had happened that now Emmett and Kagome were on speaking terms?
At this point Charlie comes out on the porch and sees Emmett holding Kagome's hand, he steps off the porch and walks over to Kagome and Emmett. Emmett releases Kagome's hand and straightens up.
"Hello, sir, I'm Emmett Cullen."
Charlie looks between Emmett and Edward, "Cullen, huh?"
"Yes, sir." Emmett says with a smile.
"And how do you know my niece?"
"Oh, Uncle Charlie, Bella introduced us this morning and we have a few classes together."
Charlie turns to Bella, and narrows his eyes, "She did, did she?"
"Yes, sir, she did, I was just walking Kagome home from her target practice."
"Target practice?"
"Yes, Uncle Charlie, I went out and practiced shooting with my longbow, I'm thinking about joining the schools archery team."
"Oh, well, that would be good for you, Kagome, your mom told me you were on an archery team in Tokyo. Okay girls it's time to come in for dinner, so say goodbye to the boys."
With that, Charlie turns and goes back into the house. Bella and Edward walk down to his car so they could say goodbye while Kagome and Emmett stand by the front porch. Kagome fidgets a bit then looks up into Emmett's amber eyes.
"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow, Emmett."
"Yes, you will."
"Have a goodnight."
"You too, Kagome."
Without warning, Emmett leans down and gives Kagome a kiss on the cheek, he then smiles at her and jogs off toward Edwards car, passing Bella as she walks back to the house.
"Bye, Bella." Emmett says in a happy tone.
"Bye, Emmett."
Bella comes and stands next to Kagome who has a hand on her cheek where Emmett had kissed her, and she's blushing furiously.
"I saw that." Bella tells her.
"What?"
"Emmett kiss you on the cheek, that was so sweet."
Kagome just blushed even harder, "Come let's go have dinner."
Bella laughs and puts her arm around her cousin and leads her into the house.
They go inside and sit down to a lovely dinner of lasagna, garlic bread, and a nice salad. Once they were done with dinner, Kagome did the dishes while Charlie went into the living room to watch TV. When she was finished she goes into the living room and sits down next to her Uncle. They watch TV in silence for a while until Charlie broaches the subject.
"So Emmett Cullen, huh?"
Kagome blushes and looks at her uncle, "What about him, Uncle Charlie?"
"Should I be worried about him?"
"No, I just met him today, you have nothing to worry about, we're just friends."
"Good, I don't think I can handle another Cullen right now."
Kagome giggles and gets up, she kisses her uncle goodnight and goes downstairs to her room to call her mother. It was 8pm local time which made noon the next day in Tokyo so it was the perfect time to call. She dialed the number and waited.
"Hello?"
"Mom, it's me."
"Oh, Kagome dear, it's so good to hear your voice, how was your first day of school?"
"It was okay, I like the school, I made a few friends already."
"Good I'm glad to hear that, how are you liking living with your uncle and cousin?"
"It's great, I'm getting along really well, with Bella, and Uncle Charlie is really nice. How are you, Souta and Grandpa?"
"We're doing well, Dear, missing you. Souta is doing well in school and the shrine has been busier than usual which makes your grandpa happy."
"That's good, Mom, I'm glad things are going well for you guys, well, I just wanted to let you know that I'm fine and that things are good here. But I have school tomorrow and I need to go to bed, give Souta and Grandpa a hug and a kiss for me. I miss you guys and hope to see you guys very soon, goodnight.
"Goodnight, Kagome Dear, have a good day at school tomorrow."
"I will, bye."
Kagome hangs up the phone, she went to the bathroom and changed into her pajamas then got into bed, but just when she was about to turn off the light her phone started ringing. She looked at the caller I.D. she didn't recognise the number but it was from Japan, so she decided to answer it.
"Hello."
"Miko."
Kagome's eyes widen, she immediately recognised the voice on the other end.
"S-Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked, then the phone slips from her fingers.
Kagome scrambles for her phone that had hit the floor, she picks it up and puts it to her ear.
"Hello, are you still there, Sesshomaru?"
"Do not disrespect this Sesshomaru by dropping your phone again, Miko."
"N-No of course not, how did you get this number?"
"I have my ways, Miko, and stop that incessant stuttering." Sesshomaru orders.
"R-right, sorry, I just can't believe I'm talking to you, that's all."
"Hn, did you think that This Sesshomaru was destroy like some lesser Youkai or perhaps that I had grown old and feeble after only 500 years?"
"I didn't know what happened to you this whole time, I never felt any of you in this era before."
"That is simply because we have learned to hide ourselves better since the Feudal Era. But that is a story for another time. There are things This Sesshomaru wishes to discuss with you, You will meet me at the Café in Port Angeles the day after tomorrow at 5:00 and you will not be late."
"Wait, how do you know where I am?"
"Must I repeat myself, Miko, I have my ways. 5:00 day after tomorrow do not keep me waiting."
With that the line went dead, Kagome stared at her phone for a minute before she put it on her nightstand to charge it. She got under her covers and settled into her pillow.
"He's alive, I can't believe Sesshomaru is alive," She paused for a moment, "Yes, I can, I wonder if anyone else is alive in this era."
Kagome then turns out the light and goes to sleep.
