Kagome was heading toward Inuyasha's room nervous about the fact that she didn't even know what to say to him. The kiss running through her head, she sat in front of his bedroom thinking about what to say, her heart going quickly.

She knocked on the door and took a couple deep breaths while she waited for him to open the door. She just needed to get this done and over with. Inuyasha opened the door, expecting Miroku to be standing there.

"Miroku go aw-" He was surprised to see that instead of Miroku at the door it was Kagome. Her cheeks were all rosy from the night, mascara some what smudged but she couldn't have been looking prettier.

"Umm hi" Kagome said to him, watching as his golden brown eyes stared at her, with emotion and desire. In a way which made her feel scared. But her facial expression must of showed just that because his eyes softened.

"Miroku told you didn't he?"

Kagome felt her stomach flip. What was she supposed to say to him ?

"Ya, he did."

Inuyasha sighed looking to the ground,

"You do not have to stick by me you know that right? It's my problem and you are under no obligation to stay with me."

Kagome sighed at sat down onto his bed, looking out at the window – moon light shining in.

"Inuyasha – if I stay with you it isn't because I am under an obligation it's because I love you.."

Her heart beat raced as silence filled the room.

She said that she wants to stay with me because she has feelings for me. She loves me?

Inuyasha looked into her eyes, seeing them well up with tears – causing him to frown.

"Inu-"

She was cut off by Inuyasha pulling her into a kiss, his hands tangled in her hair. Finally they pulled apart needing air.

She looked at him realising that the feelings she had for him were returned.

"Kagome , I had to"

She kissed him and smiled,

"Don't worry I figured it out."

The two of them spent the rest of the night laughing, sharing moments unaware that behind Inuyasha's door Miroku and Sango stood smiling before going back into the living room.

The next morning was a Saturday meaning there would be no school. Kagome left her bedroom around 11:30 surprised she had slept in for so long. A pain running along the side of her neck once she awoke.

"Morning sleepy head" Sango called to her from the kitchen. Kagome closed her eyes in reply to Sango's cherry attitude. The pain in her neck bothering her increasing.

"So Inuyasha wanted me to tell you that he and Miroku are going to the gym and they will be home later. "

She smiled when she saw a blush go across Kagome's face.

"You know Kags- you were Inuyasha's room pretty late last night, sure nothing happened" Kagome was now wide awake with her cheeks red covered and her head thumping reminding her of the pain in her neck.

"Nothing happened Sango, no worries."

Kagome grabbed a glass full of water and ventured through the cupboard until she found some Tylenol. Taking it she closed her eyes hoping for it to kick in soon. The side of her neck burning with intensity almost as if on fire.

"Kagome, are you okay?" Sango asked with an alarmed tone. She knew her sister – when she was in pain her face turned pale; and Kagome appeared as white as if she has seen a ghost.

"I'm okay, just think I slept funny is all."

Kagome and Sango sat onto the couch and flipped though the t.v. Waiting for the guys to come home. As Sango flipped through channels the other girl closed her eyes, memories of last night coming into sight, and a certain hanyou.

"We're back!"

Kagome smiled and opened one of her eyes to see Inuyasha and Miroku at the doorway, both of them in wife beaters and sweats. Closing her eyes she went back to her thoughts until she realised her pain had went away.

"Kagome, are you okay?" Sango asked the girl seeing her sighing and now with a huge smile on her face.

Opening her eyes she screamed and rolled off the couch- to hear roaring laughter coming from behind her.

"Kags, you should of seen the look on your face when Inuyasha held that toy spider infront of your face. It was precious."

Miroku imitated the face causing Sango to laugh even louder, leading her to fall off the couch herself. Kagome smirked and felt a set of eyes on her. Blushing she looked down and glanced toward Inuyasha- the minute their eyes met her neck was met with a tingling sensation causing her to feel butterflies and feel warm inside. Miroku and Sango continued their conversation laughing and snorting at each other while the other two just starred at each other. He put his hand onto hers and the sensation began to fill her body – her cheeks going red. Sango stopped laughing and poked Miroku causing him to laugh and fall over. The loud thump caused the two to separate and blush looking away. Kagome stood and began to walk away from the scene. Inuyasha watched her every step and sighed. Last night couldn't have been more perfect.

~Flashback (Night Before)~

Kagome sat on the edge of his bed not facing the teenage hanyou , who was waiting for her to respond. Inuyasha sighed and began to become impatient. He watched from behind as the girl was fiddling with her fingers and he couldn't take the wait anymore. He grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into his arms.

"Inuyasha- what are you doing?" he gave a slight growl and Kagome glanced up to see him sigh and cuddle into his neck.

"Wench- if you're gonna take this long to decide then let me enjoy the time I have holding you." Kagome's cheeks dusted with a blush causing Inuyasha to laugh. He nuzzled into her neck and sighed. 'What a silly girl she was' he thought to himself and closed his eyes.

~End Of Flashback~

"Bro?" Miroku called to Inuyasha for the tenth time, however he had no success. The hanyou was lost in his thoughts smiling and it caused Miroku to smile. For the first time he finally believed that Inuyasha was truly happy.

"INUYASHA!" Sango yelled causing both Miroku and Inuyasha to jump up.

"What is it Sango?" Inuyasha said once he realised it was just Sango calling him and there wasn't some sort of emergency.

"Phone for you." She said skipping out of the room all happy and smiling as if nothing happened.

Miroku glanced at Inuyasha and shrugged before moving out of the half demons way so he could answer the phone.

"Hello?"

"Little brother, mother and father request for you to come home right away." The gruff voice said to him , belonging to non other than Sesshomaru Takahashi.

"Sesshy! Is that Inuyasha on the phone? Give it to me" he heard his sister in law yell in the background.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes as the couple in the background began to argue which led to a very bored Inuyasha.

"INUUUUUU!" Rin called into the phone causing the half demon to squint as it hurt his sensitive ears.

"Hey to you to Rin, how are you doing?" he asked and began to space out as she went into the details of her life.

"Inuyasha, are you listening to me?" she asked surprised he hadn't said anything it a little while.

"Ya Rin, I'm listening continue." He had began spacing out again when she was started talking about the neighbour's new flower garden.

Inuyasha watched as Kagome came out of her room changed into a pair of leggings and a hoodie. Her hair was up into a high bun allowing Inuyasha to have a good view of her neck- his inner demon shining with pride inside of him. She wore the simple heart pendant Inuyasha had gotten for her 18th birthday and the charm bracelet Sango had gotten.

'Mate'he called to him and Inuyasha just shook his head and realised that the demon in him was calling for Kagome , wanting her to become his.

'No. Kagome hasn't made a decision yet- so she isn't our mate'

'Mate, we want her as a mate. Your demon blood wants you to take her as your mate- the woman you will love for all eternity and we want as the mother of your pups'

'NO! Kagome hasn't decided, if she would give me an idea of what we were I would know. I shouldn't of done what I did last night , I forgot the pain she would be in if we were separated for too long'

Inuyasha watched as Kagome approached him and walked between him and the island which was located in the kitchen. Her scent filled his heads with clouds causing the inner demon in him yearn for her some more. He watched her every move , as she opened the fridge and got out a cold water bottle. Taking a sip and licking her lips afterwards. The demon in him roared for him to go over there and mark her. Pressing on the bridge of his nose he realised she was trying to walk by again. Using his free hand he grabbed her by the waist and pressed his nose into the crook of her neck.

"Inuyasha!" she cried out of shock. The half demon had grabbed her and the girl was now pressed into him. He layed kisses across her neck causing Kagome to feel a sensation run through her body. When his lips reached the area on her neck where she had been having pain he put a delicate kiss and Kagome never felt a feeling like that before. Her whole body was filled with butterflies and it felt as if she was on Cloud 9.

"Inuya-" before she could finish saying his name he rotated her so he was facing her and pulled her into a deep kiss.

"INUYASHAA!" the voice in the phone boomed and led to the two teens pulling apart gasping for breath.

"Umm hey dad." He replied into the phone and watched as Kagome began to pull away. Wrapping his arm around tighter her he held her close and began kissing her neck again moving the phone to the other ear. She stood their silent as Inuyasha was on the phone with his father.

"Son, your mother and I would like you to come home this weekend. The engagement with Kikyo is broken and we found you a new suiter who we think would be a better match for you anyway. So we would like you to come home this weekend."

The only thing his father heard was a woman's voice in the background.

"Inuyasha, let me go." He could hear the pleading tone in her voice and he could also her the shakiness.

"Wench- when will you make a descison?" Inuyasha whispered unaware his father could hear everything.

Kagome starred into his amber eyes and sighed.

"Inuyasha- I have an answer for you but I can't tell you hear I need to explain but I think we should start slow, maybe date and see where that goes before jumping into things."

The half demon smiled at the girl and pulled her into another kiss.

"Hey dad, ya I'll come home this weekend and I have someone I want you to meet."

Inuyasha hung up the phone not waiting for a response.

'Oh Inuyasha, your mother and I already chose a bride for you," Inutaisho thought to himself and sighed as he put down the phone.
