Kiba finished his shower and walked out to his room and heard Kagome tucking her son in to his bed. He found a white V-neck shirt that was clean and grabbed his solid black over shirt. He pulled on his favorite pair of faded blue jeans and slipped on his black ninja sandals. After running his fingers through his messy damp hair he walked into the living room to see Kagome talking to Sango in the kitchen. He had to admit to himself that he loved what Kagome was wearing, and unfortunately, so did his appendage. Kagome adorned herself with a form-fitting black tank top and electric blue skinny jeans. He could see the tail of a wolf tattoo poking out from under her tank top and he wondered if she had any more hidden surprises. He smiled when he saw his gift hanging from her neck.
"Ready to go Kagome?" he asked.
"Yeah! Just let me grab my jacket!" she said with a smile as she ran to her room to grab her jacket.
Kagome returned less than a minute later wearing the white jacket. Upon further inspection, Kiba noticed the fluffy white tail attached to the back hem and the two white ears attached to the hood. He saw that the sleeves had a glove attachment meant to look like paws. He raised an eyebrow when he looked at her.
"Whaaaat?" Kagome asked. "It's my favorite jacket. It's like being seen, but no one really knowing that it's what I really am."
He had to admit, she had a point there.
"So, off to dinner?" Sango asked.
Kiba nodded in response.
"C'mon Kagome, I know a great place to go." He called as he walked out the door.
Kagome followed suit and was soon walking right next to him.
They arrived at the restaurant less than ten minutes later and were seated immediately. Kagome read through the menu once then looked up at Kiba questioningly. Kiba felt someone watching him and looked up to find Kagome staring at him intently.
"What's wrong Kagome?" he asked.
"I've never been to this kind of place. What exactly is good around here for a wolf?" she asked.
"Well I'd recommend the teriyaki steak or just plain steak if you don't like teriyaki. Also, the rice is pretty good too. Oh and the sushi is amazing here. But I'm a big steak person, so I usually just eat a lot of steak." He said grinning with a fang poking out.
Kagome giggled. As if she could expect any different from a wolf yokai like herself.
A waiter came to their table. "Hello there. May I take your order?" he asked looking at Kagome.
"Uh, yes. I think I'll have a water." Kagome answered .
"what would you like for dinner ma'am?" The waiter asked politely, scribbling down her drink order.
"I think I'll have the teriyaki steak." Kagome said with a fanged grin aimed at Kiba.
"What about you, sir?" the waiter asked, turning to Kiba.
"I'll have exactly the same." He answered simply, winking at Kagome.
"I'll bring those waters right out." The waiter responded after writing their orders down.
When the waiter walked off Kiba looked at Kagome who grinned back. The pair burst into a fit of giggles.
"So Kagome, are you excited for the date after dinner?" Kiba asked hopefully.
Kagome nodded happily. "Im excited, I always used to run to the mountain tops to see the view of the cities and the sunset. It was all quiet and relaxing."
"Good, this may not be as wonderful as a mountain," he laughed nervously, "but its definitely serene."
"Im sure it will be just as good as the mountains." Kagome reassured.
The pair grew quiet as the waiter brought out two large teriyaki steaks and two glasses of water. With a thank you from the young demon couple, he took his leave. It wasn't until Kiba paid for the meal that the comfortable silence was broken.
"You ready Kagome?" kiba asked, trying to hide the nervousness in his voice.
Kagome nodded and followed the tall wolf out of the restaurant.
The pair walked and talked about Kiba's past in the academy and in training. Soon they reached the top of the hokage mountain. Kagome looked out and gasped.
"It's beautiful" she breathed.
Kiba wrapped his arms around her waist and held her close as she looked out over the city. She snuggled in his chest as she watched the people bustle around the city. Suddenly she looked up at him.
"Hm?" he questioned.
Kagome leaned up and kissed him softly on the lips. Kiba kissed her back, savoring her taste and softness.
"I love you."
