Part 30. Stay.

- Thank you, everything was delicious. I can't believe how well hidden you kept your cooking skills!

- Well, I'm glad you gave me a chance to share them with you.

The night dragged on in comfortable conversation, until Kagome noticed how late it was.

- I should probably get going. I'll just ask for an Uber, if that's okay?

- Kagome… I'm really sorry about what happened with Kikyo, but I meant it when I said it was YOU who should have been here with me. Maybe I don't deserve you, but…

- You idiot. I WANT to be with you, I'm just afraid we don't want the same… Inuyasha?

She watched as he turned around and walked to his bedroom, coming back in seconds and offering her a small bag with a brand new toothbrush, some toiletries, an oversized t-shirt, and a fresh towel.

- This is yours, if you want it. You know I'm not good with words Kags. Just know that, if you ever want to stay here with me…

She released a sob and closed the distance between them, circling him with her arms and hiding her face in the crook of his neck.

- Kagome, will you be my girlfriend?


A.N. FINALLY! Ugh, I want an Inuyasha for myself.
