Declaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any of the Inuyasha Characters, kami-sama I wish I did.....

Chapter 1:

~Nande, Nande, Nande??? Do I have come back just in time to see him with Kikyo!!! Just perfect, I finally clear up my head and think that I'm ready to come back, and then I see Inuyasha with that walking corpse. What's come over me? I shouldn't be mad, I just can't stand the fact that Inuyasha choose her over me, I mean, I'm not even in love with him anymore. I finally figure out it's just a silly school girl crush after two years of pain. Kami-sama nande? Nande did it hurt so much if I truly don't love him? Maybe because I've stayed by his side for so long, Yuki was right I shouldn't have waited around for him.~

"KAGOME!!!! Your back I missed you so much." A high squeaky voice yelled out in joy. At the sound of this Kagome came out of thought to see who was calling her name, it was none other then her kitsune Shippo. Quickly putting a smile on her face she opened her arms wide enough for him to jump into them. Shippo so full of energy said the one thing that was usually on all kids minds at that age.

"Kagome, did you bring my candy?" It was more of a demand then a question. Kagome giggled at that.

"Hai Shippo-chan. You can't have it till after dinner though." She said in a stern voice. Shippo knew not to argue with her when it came to candy because if he did she would not give it to him. Instead Inuyasha would eat it, the first time she did it, it surprised him. His mother figure actually giving away something he loved so much to that hanyou, Inuyasha.

"Ii-desu." And with that they walked to Kaede's hut. Miroku, Sango, and Kaede were sitting around the fire waiting for the stew to cook. It was dinner time; this is why Miroku and Sango loved coming back to the village. Kaede's cooking was the best in the land.

"Konnichiwa Kagome-sama." Miroku said as Kagome sat down next to Sango. "I missed you so much Kagome-chan, we must catch up." Sango said to her best friend. Kagome had been in her time for two whole weeks, talk about a record breaker. The food was finally done, Kaede passed a bowl out to everyone and set one aside for herself and Inuyasha. He would soon arrive at the smell of dinner like usual. (So like a dog) Maybe 2 minutes later Inuyasha came in.

"Where's my food?" Kaede handed him a bowl as soon as he questioned them. Of course Inuyasha gulfed it down like nothing, then asking for seconds. Kagome sat there quietly just looking at Inuyasha not even touching her food.

~He doesn't even know I saw him with her~

Flash Back:

"Kagome" Inuyasha said.

"Hai" Just as Kagome said that Inuyasha grabbed her and held her in his arms. Kagome gasped at this, then her face turn red, I mean really red. Inuyasha hardly ever held her it embarrassed her so much, but she loved it when he did hold her. She felt so protected in his arms, as if nothing could faze her not a thing in the world. She was so wrong.

"I'm sorry." Inuyasha then said with the saddest face Kagome had ever seen him do in the past two years, of being with him, at his side and no one else.

"Nande?" Kagome said with a bit of concern in her voice. Inuyasha just looked her debating if he should tell her or not.

"I made my decision. I'm going to be with Kikyo now." Inuyasha then let go of her and said, "That's the last time I'll ever hold you like that." Kagome was shocked more than sad at the moment. His words wrung in her head over and over until it finally hit. She looked at him with tears about to spill from her brown eyes. Not sure of what to do or say. He could see the hurt and confusion mixed in her eyes, he could also smell a tint of salt coming off her which of course meant she was about to cry.

"I want to go home for a while." With that she walked off from him.

End of flash back:

"Child, are you not hungry?" Kaede questioned Kagome.

"Gomen-nasai. I was lost in thought." Kagome said. She felt sad all over again. Inuyasha sensed this in her voice and just looked at her. Of course he felt bad, but he felt like he owed Kikyo his life. He did love her too, he loved both, he knew it was wrong, so he decided he had to choose. So he did, and his choice was not Kagome, but Kikyo. The one everyone hated.

"Gomen." Inuyasha whispered only for to hear. She did, and just looked at him and gave him a weak smile. Sango and Miroku notice something was up, for Inuyasha did not go to get her when she was in her time, not once. He would usually throw a big fit about her not coming back and go storming to the well to go get her. Sango and Miroku just looked at each other not sure what to say.

"Kagome, do you want to go for a walk?" Sango questioned her friend. Kagome knew this was coming sooner or later, when she left she didn't give an explanation only that she was returning home for a while and not sure for how long.

"Ii-desu" Kagome said. As soon as they were finished eating Sango was ready to go, so Kagome got up and followed her friend out of the hut walking toward the hot springs. When they reached the hot springs Kagome took her shoes off and dipped her feet in the soothing hot water. It felt so good, like all her stress was disappearing.

.

"Kagome" Sango said to the girl who was sitting on the rock trying to get more comfortable.

"Hai." Kagome replied finally finding a comfortable spot. Kagome avoided Sango's eyes. Kagome didn't feel sad anymore but she didn't want her friend to look at her. Kagome reason was that Sango looked sad for her and Kagome didn't need that right now. She just wanted to feel happy, for Inuyasha. He finally made up his mind on who to be with, deep down Kagome new the day would come. She just didn't want it to.

"Is everything ok with you and Inuyasha?" Sango asked with a very concerned voice. Kagome turned to her and smiled.

"Hai, you want to know the reason why I went back for so long right?" Kagome said with a cheesy smile on her face.

"Um... if you want to tell then yes." Sango replied not sure if Kagome's smile was real or was she faking it.

Kagome giggled, "Of course I'll tell my best friend. Inuyasha told me on the day I left to my time that he was choosing Kikyo. That's all he basically said so I felt I need time to think things through so I left to one place I felt I could think, home sweet home." Kagome said smiling. Sango studied the girls face to see if she was truly felling ok about it. Sango wasn't sure; Kagome was always so cheerful that it was just natural to her now.

"Kagome, you're actually ok with this?" Sango said in voice that screamed disbelief. Kagome then looked away, to turn to the water that flowed so evenly, so peaceful like the trees that blew in the wind.

Sango wonder why would Inuyasha choose Kikyo. Kagome was so beautiful. Just sitting there by the hot spring made her look like a goddess, the stem from heat all around her making her skin look as if it was glowing, the bright round moon shinning down on her made hair seem to sparkle, even her eyes sparkled. Her smile was so bright and beautiful like when the sun comes out of no where on cloudy rainy day. Kagome always smelled so nice, like cherry blossoms in the spring.

"Hai, I'm happy for Inuyasha, he finally gets what he wants. I mean she did die for him 52 years ago, like I could compare to that. Plus, I don't think I love him like that, just as a friend a dear friend, like you, Miroku, and Shippo. No I take that back you guys are like family to me." Kagome said with a smile.

Sango smiled to her friend. "Kagome, you are like family to us too. If you weren't there to support when my family had died I don't know what I would have done. Maybe go mad. You were there when I needed someone the most and I am grateful for that. Would you like to go back to the village?" Sango asked her question because she did not want to sadden her friend when she was feeling ok about Inuyasha and Kikyo.

A/N Sorry it was shorter than I wanted it but it's late so I have to get some sleep. Very tired. Hehe ^_^
