Chapter Six: The Surprise

Kagome smiled as she woke up the next morning and looked over at her friends. She remembered their reactions. Inuyasha and Kagome surprised their friends the night before when they told them the real reason Kagome's father wanted them to move so suddenly was because he had found out that her and Inuyasha were a couple before they were in middle school. They told them that they had never broke up and decided to try dating again.

"So that's why you guys avoided each other since the day you bumped into one another." Kikyo had said.

"Yeah but Monday when that rock slide happened we decided to try again." said Kagome and Kikyo smiled as her sister and a black haired Inuyasha sat next to one another.

Kagome remembered how her sister smiled like she knew what was going on the entire time. She had vowed that Kikyo was going to tell her what was with that then and there. Just then she heard a slight growl outside the tent and knew that Inuyasha had returned to his demon form.

As quietly as she could without waking the others Kagome slipped out of the tent where Inuyasha was waiting for her. "Hey lets go for a walk." he said and Kagome smiled at that idea. They hadn't walked down the beach together since they were kids and she knew it was a great way to get to know one another again.

"Okay." she said and the two started down the beach.

"Hey Kagome, why do you think your father hated me so much?" asked Inuyasha as they walked down the beach

"I don't know Inuyasha, but I do know that we moved because he found out that you and I were dating." said Kagome. "If he hadn't interfered…"

"Kagome don't worry, we're together now."

"Yeah." said Kagome as he held her close to him.

Meanwhile Kikyo and Tyzen were talking when Sango walked up to them. Kikyo could tell that the slayer had just woken since she was rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Then Sango turned to Kikyo and asked where Kagome was. Kikyo was wondering that herself since her sister wasn't in the tent when she woke up either. "Well Tyzen said that Inuyasha wasn't in the tent when he got up either and he wasn't anywhere around here. So I'm assuming that she's with him." said Kikyo

"I still can't believe that they've been a couple since before middle school." said Sango. "No wonder Kagome's father hated Inuyasha so much."

"That wasn't the only reason he hated Inuyasha." said Kikyo quietly

"What do you mean Kikyo?" asked Sango.

"It was the reason that he moved the family but it wasn't the only reason he hated Inuyasha and his family." said Kikyo

"It had to kill Kagome though." said Sango

"You have no idea." said Tyzen "It wasn't just Kagome that it hurt."

"What do you mean Tyzen?" asked Kikyo

"Well you see when Inuyasha and Kagome were in elementary school was when I met them. We were good friends until the day Kagome and Inuyasha started to hang out more often together by themselves.'

'I knew that they had started to date and I kept it to myself. I have to admit I was jealous of Inuyasha because he had Kagome and I felt like I was being forced away like I had from my hometown. Just because I was a half-demon. Then I met Kikyo and we had become good friends. But then as fate would have it right before the four of us started middle school Kagome's father found out that Inuyasha and Kagome were dating and caused the rift between the two of them. Since Hotaru didn't know I was a half demon Kikyo wasn't banned from seeing me, however he banned Kagome from seeing Inuyasha and when Kagome yelled that she hated her father he told her that he would make sure she would never see Inuyasha again."

"But that don't make sense. I mean Kagome and Inuyasha said that they didn't fight until a month before they started middle school." said Sango.

"Which is true, After Hotaru told Kagome that they were moving a month after he banned Kagome from seeing Inuyasha, she ran out of the house and to the tree." said Kikyo

"And that was where she told him that she hated him, which we know wasn't true." said Sango

"Right, but that wasn't the last pain Inuyasha was going to feel during middle school, I'm afraid." said Tyzen. "You see when we we're in middle school, before Lady Iziyoi died, Inuyasha would constantly be asked out."

"Miroku mentioned that once before." said Sango "What happened?"

"Well there was one girl that was more persistent than the others." said Tyzen. "Her name was Kizara."

Kikyo gasped when she heard that name. She knew that girl very well. It was the girl that tried to take Tyzen away from her. Tyzen nodded and said "You remember her don't you Kikyo?"

"Yeah." said Kikyo

"You see Sango back in middle school Inuyasha was very Popular and strong. So in my opinion Kizara wanted Inuyasha as a trophy boyfriend."

"But let me guess he didn't let her." said Sango

"That's right." said the very same demon that they were talking about. "Though she never gave up no matter how many times I told her I was not available."

"So then she tried a different approach." said Tyzen "she tried to find out who he was dating."

"She didn't find me." Kagome pointed out.

"No, because I told her if she ever laid a hand you I'd kill her." Inuyasha said.

"So what happened to her?" asked Kikyo

"Don't know. She disappeared after mother died and I started to live with Sesshomaru." said Inuyasha. Just then the sun broke through that clouds and caught a gleam on Kagome's hand

"Kagome what is that?" asked Kikyo looking at the new addition to Kagome's finger.

"Oh yeah, Inuyasha proposed to me this morning." said Kagome. She and Inuyasha smiled at the surprised look on their friends faces. Kagome had meant to tell them when they had got back from their walk, but she got up in the story and she forgot.

"No way!"

"Yeah." said the dog demon. He didn't tell anyone what he was going to do so he knew that Tyzen would have been surprised. However he also knew that Kagome was meant for him. That was why the two of them had met the way they did and how they were able to find each other again without really looking.

When Miroku Nalika and Kyrian joined them, Tyzen and the others were asking for the details. The two phoenix demons noticed the ring and knew what happened. But Miroku was confused about everything that was going on, since he didn't seen the ring so he was lost.

"Hey what did we miss?" asked Miroku sitting down beside Sango

"Kagome is engaged." said Sango

"You asked her Inuyasha?" Miroku asked shocked

"No Koran did." said Inuyasha sarcastically. "Of course you idiot."

"Calm down Inuyasha." said Kagome before blood was spilt. "Anyway we need to figure out what we're going to do with the last two days."

"Well we have been here for two weeks almost three." Said Sango

"How about we go hiking?" asked Kikyo

"We went hiking Friday." said Tyzen and everyone sighed.

Meanwhile while everyone was trying to figure out what they were going to do the group never realized that they were being watched. An old rival of Inuyasha's were watching them and plotting against the dog demon and his friends. However it wasn't just him that was plotting. Along with him stood Kizara and Koron.

"Just keep laughing Inuyasha. You won't live long enough to see your wedding day." said Naraku

"That is true." said the blonde demon. "He will die."
