Chapter #5: What We've All Been Waiting For!

…Kagome had been lifted into the air. She was high in the sky, to afraid to open her eyes to see what would happen if she looked down. But she peaked open a bit to see where she would land. She slowly opened her eyes…and realized she was on Inu Yasha's back. She was shocked to find out where she was. 'I thought he'd hate me after what I just said. Or at least ignore me from now on (not that I'll be here much longer), Kagome thought to herself, '(sigh) Oh Inu Yasha, I wish I could read your mind. You don't let me know everything I should about you.

'But, that's actually a good thing right now. If I could read them, they'd probably say something like "And you think I might actually feel a tiny bit the same?!" Why? WHY?! Why can't you feel the same at least a little bit? I even hate to say this but I'm Kikyo's re-incarnation, right? So how come you can't see a little bit of her in me? Or at least enough to call me a best friend or even a friend at all. I just want to know if you wouldn't be disgusted to know that I'll always be thinking about you in my time, or maybe fantisize about you a bit (not that I might not have already! (A/N: Can you imagine that under all that kind, sweet, innocent acting of her's, there's THAT going on? Tsk tsk!)

'(sigh, tear, tear) I guess I'll just have to deal with that from now on. I'll grow up alone because the only man I have or every will love is in hell with my incarnation because he loves her more then he would ever think about me. Why is this my fate?' While Kagome was thinking this, Inu Yasha had his on ideas running rapid through his mind. 'She loves me!' He thought, 'She actually loves me! ME! Not Koga, not Hojo, ME!! WA-HOO! Alright! This is great! I can't believe it. It's like a dream come true. I just wish I had realized it earlier when Miroku asked that question. It could've saved me, US, so much time.

'But I guess she wouldn't have believed me if I did tell her. I mean, I do show it when I freak out when she goes home to go out with Hojo, or praises that god damn WOLF, (inhale, exhale) but I always went after Kikyo. Hah, Kikyo. The one person I finally realized I hated. The whole time I was going after Naraku to avenge her, when she actually joined up with him.I can't believe she did THAT! I mean, I know for a fact Kagome would NEVER do that!

'Ah, beautiful and lovely Kagome. I never get tired of saying her name, smelling her scent or listening to her voice, especially when she sings! Oh, I love that voice! Kikyo's always sounded so serious, like my brother's. HAH! Maybe her and my brother could've gotten together! I wouldn't I care at all. I will always and only love Kagome. And I pledge from this day on I will never talk or think about Kikyo again. I vow on…(sniff, sniff

'Huh? Is Kagome…crying?! Why would she be crying? (gasp) Did I scare her when I didn't answer to her earlier and then just take her off into the woods? I must have. I mean, I would've been scared if I told her my feelings and all she did was drg me into the forest. Oh man, I better get there fast.' Just five seconds after he thought this, he arrived to his destination. He bent down and Kagome knew from experience that was her signal to get off. She slowly slipped off his back and looked up. All that was in front off her was a sheet of moss covered in a couple sakura blossums hanging off two snapped branches. But coinsedentally, the blossums were across from each other in the middle.

Kagome quickly looked down and avoid eye contact with nothing unless it was on the ground. Inu Yasha saw this and knew he had to talk fast. "Kagome, as soon as you left the banquet, I was worried. I smelt your tears and I knew something was wrong. I followed you to see what was wrong and on the way, I realized somehting. I can't tell you… Kagome?" He looked to see Kagome starting to leave.

He jumped in front of her and grabbed the upper part of both of her arms. "Kagome, it's not what you think. Just listen to me please." Inu Yasha pleaded. 'The only reason I'm here is so I can't run away when you tell me that you now hate me.' Kagome thought, but she just shrugged her shoulders and let Inu Yasha bring her back over to in front of the moss blanket. He then continued while looking at the moss and for some weird reason, when he looked at it, he seemed anxious.

"As I was saying before, I realized something that I can't tell you yet, but I will really soon. Anyway, when I heard you sing, it lifted my soul, it gave me the courage I need to do something very important and that's why you're here. Kagome, look up." Inu yasha then put his hand in the middle of the blossums through the moss and seperated them. Moonlight struck Kagome's face more then it did before. She whipped away her tears and slowly looked. What she saw made her open her eyes wide and gasp in amazement…

Well, I'm ending it here. JKS! I just said this is the last chapter! Geez, take a chill pill all! Srry, I just had to do that. Anywoo, on with da show!

She saw the most beautiful piece of nature anyone could ever lay their eyes on. There was a fairly sized pond in the middle of the area withlittle fish swimming around. Rows of bushes among bushes cloaked the majority of the area and in the fair northwest corner was a small hut. It also led to a small cliff where you could gaze out at the stars. Kagome thought she was in a dream world or a fairy tale. She just couldn't seem to believe her eyes.

Inu yasha was estatcic right now. Even if tonight didn't turn out as he hoped, it would've all been worth just to see that one happy expression on her glowing face. He slowly looked up at the moon, put his hands in his pockects and asked her, "Do you like it?" Kagome turned to himso quick, it caused Inu Yasha's kimono to flutter in the wind a bit. "Do I like it?" Kagome asked, "Do I LIKE IT?! What are you TALKING ABOUT? I LOVE IT!" Kagome looked back at it and thought it would be a sin to just step on the grass, but she didn't care, she HAD to see for herself. She ran over to the pond and played with the fish. Next, she went over to the bushes and smelt the flowers. Finally, she went to go look around the cabin.

Inu aysha felt like he was a parent watching his child run arounf a candy store. He just smiled as he watched her browse. When she walked into the hut, he approached the pond and sat at it's shore. Kagome just slowly walked out and strolled over to him. "Wow!" she exclaimed as she made her way over. "I've never seen a hut like it." "That's because there is no other one like it," Inu Yasha said back, "I made it."

"REALLY?!" Kagome almost screamed, "Wow! That's so cool. Why'd you build it?" "It's where I lived after my parents died." Inu yasha explained. Kagome stopped walking.

She didn't know what to do. She just stood there,staring at him, feeling sorry for him. Inu yasha looked at her with one eye and knew what she was thinking. He just looked back at the sky and said, 'Hey, don't worry about it. I was fine. Only humans can get in. The moss at the front is like a cloaking sheild, making this area unknown to anyone but me." Kagome still felt bad. She just walked over to him and sat down behind him.

Inu Yasha wanted to know why Kagome hadn't sat beside him butdidn't ask when he felt her arms snake around his neck. "I'm sorry." Kagome whispered. Inu aysha just smirked and rubbed his hands up and down her arms while trying to hug her back. "Hey, it's okay. I told you I was fine. But enough about me," at this he lost his smile and turned around to face her while still in her arms. He looked very serious now and Kagome looked a bit freaked.

Inu Yasha took a deep breath and exhaled. "Okay," he started, "Kagome remember before when I told you I couldn't tell you something right away?" Kagome just nodded and slowly began took take her arms away from him. He grabbed her hands though, as if he wasn't going to let go. He looked straight into her eyes and continued, "Well, I brought you hear so I could tell you. AND IT'S NOT WHAT YOU'RE THINKING!" 'Yeah right he's not going to say I don't love you. Ugh, why'd he have to ruin this wonderful moment? WHY?' He made Kagome stand up and he went on one knee. 'Wuh-wuh-what's he d-d-doing?' Kagome asked herself in thought, a bit shocked and nervous by his actions. Inu Yasha felt her tense up and he knew it was time.

"Kagome, I love you. I always have, I've just been blinded for so long that it took me forever to realize it. That's what I was talking about earlier when I told you I realized something on my way to get you when you ran off into the forest. I know it was stupid of me to take so long to realize it, but I finally have. I would've told you when Miroku asked us that question when we reached the village, but I was so baffled at the fact that we beat Naraku that I wasn't even thinking. I'm on my knees Kagome and I know it's a lot to ask of you, but since I know I love you and it's demon tradition, Kagome, will you be my mate?" Inu yasha finished with taking in a big breath.

He loked deep into her eyes but couldn't find an exact emotion. So many were running through her eyes at the moment, he thought she was going to faint. He thought so even more when Kagome suddenly fell to her knees. She was eye level with him and he was about to ask if she was okay until…..

Okay, I'm endin it there. But I think It's going well, don't u? JKS AGAIN! I would never end it there! LOLZ! LMAO! Okay srry, just continue…

She kissed him fullon the lips. He was taken by surprise so much that he almost fell over. He just shut his eyes and kissed her back. The kis was short and sweet because Kagome suddenly Kagome backed away. They both had passion in their eyes but Inu Yasha had a bit of hurt because she stopped. Kagome just looked at him with a smile and he returned it. "Silly, of course I will." Inu yasha jumped a bit in excitement and shock. He just examined her to see any hint of a joke but couldn't find any.

He kissed her very hard on the lips and then seperated so the could walk over to the hut and make love. Inu aysha marked Kagome during 'the age old dance' and when they finished, through all the panting, Kagome just whispered to him,

"Inu Yasha, you did save tonight."

Okay, NOW I'm done. I decided NOT to do an epilogue because I need to think about the sequel to "Surprises Unknown", my first fanfic. The second one will be called "Love Locked and Kept" so look around for it. It will be up for sure, out this on ur calender, drum role pleaz….. by November 1st!!! YEAH!! WA-HOO!!!

Okay, now for the poll. When u review, PLEAZ VOTE with it, kk? Here our ur options:

-"Switch-a-roo": Inu Yasha is jealous of how Shippo gets way more of Kagome's attention then him. So, what does a crazy hanyou do? He makes Miroku switch his body with Shippo!

-"Incarnation Trick": Naraku's latest incarnation is the weirdest of them all: it looks, sounds and acts EXACTLY like INU YASHA!! What'll the gang do when he seems to be appealing to Kagome's sensitive side?

-"Kagome's Class Dance": Kagome sneaks away from the feudal era to go to her class dance. 2 problems. #1. Inu Yasha finds out about what she did and goes to find her, and #2. The music has 'Naughty girl'-type songs! Oh, and wait 'til you hear about her outfit and who she's going with…
