Small Wishes

"I know you loved him..." the girl whispered sombrely "…but…" I love him also…

She knelt.

"Please, I pray for you, for him. I pray your blessing on us and peace on your soul…I'll make him happy. I promise. You'll never have to worry."

I'm never leaving him…I'm never letting go of his hands…

"So…please…"

"Oi! Wench!"

"Inuyasha."

His eyes were guarded:

"What're you doin'?"

She smiled.

"It's Mother's Day…"

"Mother's day isn't for another moon. I-za-yo-i…get it? The sixteenth-day moon…?"

Kagome smiled.

"It is a modern custom: a day when mothers are celebrated."

Inuyasha looked curiously at the tiny grave and the fresh flowers before snorting lightly.

"Keh!"

Kagome pretended not to notice the emotion that flooded his face – he wouldn't have admitted it anyway.

"Happy Mother's Day, Izayoi-san!"

Inuyasha continued to stare, stirring lightly when Kagome slipped her hand into his.

Happy Mother's Day…mother…

Author's Note: Helloes! I realise it's been a while. My apologies, I've pretty much have lost my works since I can no longer access them, and so I'm prolly gonna have to rewrite Footsteps Through Time, The You of Yore and Shadowed Choices from scratch from where they've left off. It might take a while, but, eventually...:s There prolly won't be too many updates in the next few months. Sorry.
