Kagome's heart beat faster as she neared home, excited to be back and see Inuyasha. She missed him like crazy and couldn't wait to give him her gift. She clutched the small dog in her hand and the wagon jerked to a stop. Kagome waited a few moments as the riders got off their horses and petted them down. Without another moment, she slowly stepped off the wagon and dusted off her white kimono. It had been a long day of traveling but she really wanted to see him.
"Kagome!"
She turned her head at the sound and brightened, waving her hand. He appeared with a happy grin, speeding towards her eagerly. He had a few leaves stuck in his hair and dirt smudged his face but she thought he was just adorable. Not that she'd ever tell him, it'd just make him feel less like a man.
He stopped a few feet away from her, panting and grinning. Kagome took a few steps forward and embraced him tightly, holding him to her to remember his hold. She pulled back and smiled, holding out the toy. He stared at it, looking from her to the toy. She nodded and handed it to him.
"I got it for you."
Inuyasha took it and studied it curiously, squeezing it and shaking it. He smiled and held it in his hand. "I'll never lose it, I promise."
"Ehhh? So this is the human you were talking about."
Kagome peered around him in surprise, laying her eyes on a dark haired boy with bright blue eyes.
