Chapter 5
(A/N: Thank you to everyone who likes/loves my story and has been reviewing and leaving me reviews. Ya'll are awesome! Now, with chapter 5!)

InuYasha sighed, it has been three days. Tapping his foot impatiently, he stood, "Dammit! She should've been back by now!"

"Why don't you see what's keeping her," Sango said softly.

InuYasha nodded, "I'll be back later." He ran to the well and with no hesitation, jumped in...

"Ahh, this feels sooooo good. After being in the woods for so long... I wonder how InuYasha and the others are. I hope they're OK." Kagome finished her bath, dried and dressed for bed. Kagome didn't know InuYasha was stairing at her until she flopped on her bed and went to turn off her bedside lamp. She smiled at him and opened her window. He automatically pulled her into a hug.

"Inu-Yasha?"

"I-I've missed you, Kagome."

"You missed me?"

InuYasha nodded, "When you travel, the instant you cross ver, I just wanna follow you and tell you that I-"

"Kagome! Dinner's ready!"

"I'm not hungry, Mom! Fix a plate for me, OK?" She turned back to InuYasha, "You were saying?"

He sighed, "Forget it. The moonless night is tomorrow. When we return, we'll never be alone enough to talk freely. Not like this."

She put her hand on his cheek, "InuYasha, I love you."

He looked at her with his golden eyes, "Y-You do?" She nodded as he grinned and hugged her. The force was so strong it knocked her back onto her bed. He landed on top of her. He laced his fingers with hers and put them up over her head, pinning her.

Kagome smiled, "InuYasha, kiss me?"

He smiled and closed his lips over hers.

~Kagome's POV~

As soon as our lips touched, I felt different. His fangs pressed against my lips made me shiver. He pulled back slightly, his golden eyes a dark pool of desire. My own black ones shared the same look. Instead of knocking, my little brother, Sota, came barging in. We both jumped and InuYasha jumped and sat on the floor like a puppy, his face a look of annoyance and fear. Both of our faces a dark crimson color. "Sis, what's going on? Why aren't you eating?"

"Nothing is going on, Sota, and you need to knock before barging into my room like that! I could've been changing clothes or something!"

"S-Sorry sis, Mom wants to know if you're feeling any better."

"I am, thank you. Now, please leave."

"Oh OK. Hi, InuYasha."

"Hm? Hello, Sota."

Sota finally left and InuYasha stood, "I'll be back, Kagome."

"Inu-Yasha?"

He smiled at me, "I won't be far." He lept from my windowsill and ran across the yard towards the Sacred Tree. I sighed and laid down for a restless night's sleep.

~End POV~

InuYasha climbed the brances and leaned against one of the stronger ones, sitting, stairing up at the moon; thinking. Kagome sighed, her heart still thudded in her chest. She could still feel his lips on hers. That was her first kiss and she wanted more. A LOT more. InuYasha hit the branch he was sitting on, "Damn. I let my emotions get the better of me. Damn. What happens now?" He jumped off the branch, morning had come, and landed on the ground, "Hey Kagome!"

She looked out of her window and yawned, "Yeah?"

"Are you ready to go back?"

"Almost," she said scurrying around getting dressed and packing her backpack, "just have to get a few more things!"

"Okay."

Kagome gathered her backpack and first aid kit, "Bye, Mom!"

"Be careful, honey."

"I will! Bye Grandpa. Bye Sota." She ran out to meet InuYasha and they both jumped through the well, "InuYasha?"

"Kagome, don't say anything to anyone about what happened with our kiss. If Naraku should find out, we'll have a lot more trouble on our hands."

"Okay."

Sango watched Kagome carefully, "What's wrong, Kagome?"

"What do you mean?"

"You and InuYasha haven't spoken two words since you both crossed over. So, what happened over there?"

Kagome shook her head and sighed, "Nothing. I can't Sango. Not yet."

Sango put her hand on Kagome's shoulder, "You can tell me anything, you know."

Kagome sighed, "I can't, Sango. If Naraku found out, he'd be more trouble, for all of us. This is a secret I must bear alone."

Sango nodded, "I understand. Kagome, I am so proud of you."
