The walk back to Kaede's hut was quiet. Inuyasha stared at Kagome wondering what he could do to prove his love. Kagome thought of Hojo her good boyfriend who she just cheated on. They arrived at the hut soon.

Shippo ran and hugged Kagome again he couldn't believe she was really back.

"So what did you bring me" Shippo asked referring to the small white box Kagome had with her.

"Oh I made you a cake." Kagome said open the box showing it to everyone.

It said "Happy Birthday Shippo" In blue letters.

"Can I have some now Kagome." Shippo asked

"Of coarse it your let me just light the candles." Kagome said as she took at five candles. (I don't know how old Shippo is so let's just go with five)

"What are those Kagome?" Shippo asked in amazement as Kagome put them on the cake and light them.

"They're candles now close your eyes and make a wish. Then blow them out and your wish will come true."

Shippo closed his eyes tight "I wish Kagome would stay with us forever." then opened them and blew out his candles.

"Yay! "Kagome said and clapped her hands together.

She took the candles off and served everyone a piece except Inuyasha who stated he wasn't hungry then went back to his thinking.

"So Shippo what did you wish for?" Miroku asked as he eat his piece of cake.

"I'd rather not say Shippo said."

"You shouldn't tell anyone Shippo otherwise it won't come true." Kagome said.

Shippo nodded and finished his cake.

Inuyasha sat in the corner, he only had one day with Kagome and it had to be special.

Inuyasha stood up and everyone looked to him.

"I'll be back soon" Inuyasha said and left.

Kagome exhaled she could finally relax now that Inuyasha was gone.

"Hey Sango wanna go to the hot springs?"

Sango smiled "You don't know how long I've wait for you to ask me that."

Sango, Kagome and Shippo went to the hot springs to go relax. Kaede was taking a nap and Miroku was mediating. That is until a hand grabs him from Kaede's hut.

"What the hell Inuyasha!" Miroku said rather loudly.

"Ssshh! Listen after you guys left Kagome said she's give me one day to prove I love her. You got any suggestions."

Miroku released his self from Inuyasha's grip and rubbed his chin.

"Well you could simply ask her to bear your children and the events that it takes for such results-" Inuyasha hit Miroku across the head.

Kagome, Sango and Shippo sat in the hot springs.

"Hey guys I'm sorry that I left the way I did" Kagome said breaking the ice.

"Its fine I'm just so happy you're back now." Sango said and Shippo nodded his head.

They sat in silence for a long time before Shippo said he was going to find Inuyasha.

After Shippo left, Kagome closed her eyes to rest. When she opened her eyes and saw Sango hovering over her.

"Ahh! Sango you scared me." Kagome said.

"So Kagome that was some kiss with Inuyasha." Sango said rising an eyebrow.

Kagome turned pink from embarrassment. She was hoping no one would bring it up but that was just unlikely.

"Well he kissed me you saw him" Kagome said

"Yeah but I didn't exactly seeing you push him off does that mean you forgive him."

"No!" Kagome shouted "I just missed him and didn't really realize what I was doing."

Sango nodded and moved back to the other side of the spring.

"So how long are you staying for?"

"Well I promised Inuyasha that I would stay at least one day so that… so he can prove he loves me"

Sango's eyes widened at that. "Prove to you. Kagome since you've been gone he hasn't been at least 5 miles away from the well. He and Shippo have slept by the well every night since you've left hoping for your return. He even stopped searching for Naraku and the jewel shards he said you were more important."

Kagome was shocked she didn't think Inuyasha would ever say something like that.

After Kagome and Sango left the springs they returned to Kaede's hut.

Shippo, Kirra, and Kaede were already sleeping. Miroku entered the hut short after and went to sleep. Sango slept pretty close to him and Kagome wondered on what happened between them since she left.

She sat with her back against the wall she sat waiting to see if Inuyasha was going to return tonight.

She began falling asleep with a tall figure appeared in the door way. It was Inuyasha he bent down and to be eye to eye with Kagome.

"Are you ready?" He asked her quietly.

"Ready?"

"You said I had a day right well are you ready?"

Kagome looked past Inuyasha at the shining moon. "Yeah I'm ready."
