Bet you all thought I gave up on this story huh? I know it's been over a year and the only excuse I have is life. I never truly gave up on this story. Because I'll always love Inuyasha. I recently just watched the final act over again which has inspired me to start this up again. I'm sorry you guys I know you must hate me! But I hope I haven't lost you all as readers, because I love you guys! This picks up right where the last chapter ended. Enjoy!
Kagome buried her head in Inuyasha's chest and squeezed her eyes shut. "C'mon well please work please work!" she repeated in her head over and over again. Inuyasha tightened his arm around her. She heard his feet hit the floor as he cradled her. She squeezed her eyes shut tighter.
"Well, Inuyasha did it work?" she whispered.
He sat her on her feet gently. She slowly opened her eyes. They were in the shrine. Her shrine. In her world. She gasped.
"Were here! It worked!" she exclaimed
"Of course it did." Inuyasha smirked.
She immediately grabbed Inuyasha's hand and started dragging him along as she ran through her yard. She swung the door open to her house so fast she thought it might break.
"Mama! Grandpa! Sota! I'm home!" she yelled.
Her mother was frozen with a pot of tea in her hands. Her grandfather was sitting at the table eyes widened. She could see the age on her mothers face. She had more wrinkle lines and her hair was starting to gray. Her mother ran to her and hugged her.
"Oh, Kagome! I'm so happy to see you!" she said with her voice full of tears.
Her mother pushed her back and looked into her eyes.
"You look wonderful! So beautiful!"
She smiled and kissed her mother on the cheek.
"Thanks Mama!"
Her mother turned her attention to Inuyasha. She placed her hand on his cheek.
"Thank you for taking care of my girl. You are a fine husband." she whispered.
Inuyasha nodded. Kagome looked at her mother puzzled.
"How did you know we were married?" she exclaimed.
Her mother laughed.
"Oh, honey I knew it was only a matter of time."
"Hey when do I get a hello?" her grandpa grumbled.
"Oh, gramps!"
She kneeled beside him and hugged him. She could see more age on his face too. He kissed her on the cheek.
"I'm sorry. My backs been hurting other wise I would of gotten up and hugged you."
She hugged her grandpa tighter.
"I'm sure Kadea and I can mix something up for you to ease the pain." she whispered.
"You've been studying medicine?" he said with wide eyes.
She smiled and nodded.
"Oh, Kagome what a wonderful practice! We're so proud of you!"
Inuyasha was eyeing the whole scene carefully. She could tell he was thinking something but she didn't know what. She stood up and returned to his side. She rested her head on his chest, and he let out a soft sigh of relief.
"Mama where's Sota?"
Her mother giggled.
"Oh, he's out with his girlfriend dear. He's bringing her over for dinner tonight. I hope you will stay!" she said as she poured them all some tea.
She looked up at Inuyasha. He nodded once. She smiled and gave him a peck on the cheek.
"We would love to stay Mama."
Her mother clapped cheerfully and went back to preparing dinner. She and Inuyasha sat down and drank there tea with her grandfather. They all laughed and chatted idly for an hour or so. Her mother started to lay all the beautiful prepared dishes on the table.
"Mama this is wonderful!" she exclaimed
She glanced over at Inuyasha he was practically drooling.
"Sota should be here any minute now." her mother said excitedly.
Kagome sprung up out of her seat.
"Inuyasha! We have to cover your ears we can't scare Sota's girlfriend!"
Inuyasha opened his mouth to complain, Kagome's beautiful brown eyes stopped him in his tracks. He snapped his mouth shut.
"Fine." he grumbled.
Kagome spun on her heel and ran into her room to retrieve his old blue hat. She came back in a flash and plopped it on his head. She gave him a quick peck on the lips, and watched his face heat up.
"Thank you." she whispered.
"Keh."
She gracefully sat back down in her seat. Just as she did so Sota, and a young girl following behind him walked through the door. She could see the maturity on his face. After all he was in high school now.
"Hey mom I'm starving is dinner do-"
His sentence trailed off when he laid eyes on her.
"Sister?"
She got up and hugged him.
"The one and only" she whispered.
Sota's girlfriend eyed them with a nervous smile on her face. She pulled out of Sota's embrace and shook her hand. She was a pretty girl. She had chestnut brown hair falling just above her shoulders and a warm friendly face.
"Hi! I'm Kagome, Sota's sister."
She placed her hand on Inuyasha's shoulder.
"And this is my husband Inuyasha."
Inuyasha looked at her with an expression that said I'm not amused. She pinched him.
"Oww! What the hell was that for?" he exclaimed.
The girls eyes widened.
"Umm don't mind him. Anyway your name is?"
"Kita Omishero." she said softly.
She smiled at Kita then politely took her seat back next to Inuyasha. Kita sat down next to gramps and Sota sat next to her. Sota nervously rubbed the back of his neck.
"Good to see you Inuyasha!" Sota exclaimed.
"You too kid." he said gruffly.
"I'm no kid! I'm almost as tall as you!" he said with a laugh.
"You'll always be a kid to me."
Kagome's mother sat down.
"There's no use letting this food get cold! Eat everyone!"
As she picked up her chop sticks Inuyasha already had about five things on his plate. Her mother giggled happily. They all ate until they were stuffed. They chatted happily until nightfall, that's when her and Inuyasha decided to take their leave. Her mother gave her a bag full of clothes and other miscellaneous items. She hugged her mother.
"You take care and come back soon."
"I will Mama! Now that the well works again!"
"Goodbye Kagome."
As soon as they were a few steps outside the door Inuyasha scooped her up.
"That kinda hurt when you pinched me ya know." he grumbled.
She kissed him passionately on the lips, then on the shoulder where she pinched him.
"I'm sorry." she whispered.
Inuyasha kissed her gently on the neck.
"Let's go home."
She nodded in agreement.
"Home."
