Kagome wasn't able to see at first, it felt so, forgien, yet familiar, like she was weightless. But when she started to feel gravity taking over, she reached out to grab onto anything. Though unexpectedly, she felt a hand grasp hers and pull her out, into the blinding light. The next thing she knew, She was standing on the edge of the well, her hand in HIS.

Her hanyou.

Her love.

Her Inuyasha.

"Inuyasha, I'm sorry... were you waiting...?" She asked as tears threatend to fall.

"Kagome..." Was his shocked response. He pulled her in close, as if she would dissapear any moment. "You idiot... what have you been up to?"

"Ka...!" Shippou tried to get the words out, but failed miserabley.

"Kagome-chan!" Sango finished for Of course, Miroku was just speechless.

"Miroku, Sango, Shippou, I'm back.." Kagome said, more saying it to herself than anyone else. "I'm back..." she whispered, looking back up at Inuyasha. "Oh!" She cried as she collapsed into his arms and sobbed into his chest. Inuyasha squeezed her tighter, burrying his face in her hair. He fell to his knees, bringing her with him, both completely oblivious to the other party.

"Come, let's give them some privacy." Miroku said with a smile at his wife. Sango smiled back. The three- no five- SIX, of them started thier walk back to the hut.

"We should prepare a small celebration for Kagome's return." Sango mused.

"Sounds great! I'm starving!" Shippou agreed.

"Daddy?" One of the girls in Miroku's arms asked.

"Yes Mai?"

"Who was that girl?"

"She was dressed funny." The other twin, Suki, added.

Miroku laughed and craddled the girls. "She's.. an old friend."

Back in by the well, they still hadn't moved, and Kagome hadn't stopped crying. She grabbed his fire-hat robe- much like she had when he had fallen off a cliff while fighting the mountain sage- and soaked it with her tears

"I-I thought I'd n-never see you again!" She cried.

"Me too." Inuyasha whispered comfortingly.

Kagome looked up at him, with teary eyes, "Is this a dream?" she asked.

Inuyasha smiled. "I hope not." That got a smile out of Kagome too. She laughed lightly and whipped as eyes and Inuyasha stood up and turned around. "Hop on." He said.

Kagome, a small smile still plastered on her face, got up and jumped onto Inuyasha's back. He took off, running at top speed through the forest. It felt just like They had never been separated. And that's the way they wanted it to be.

After a few mintues, They came to a small hut on the top of a hill, overlooking Kaede's village. Clothes lines hung frm tree branches, the garments pined to them swayed in the breeze. It was a type of peace that she missed.

"Kagome!!" Shippou exclaimed, jumping into Kagome's arms. She was so busy taking in her surrounding that she didn't notice the young kitsune running from the hut. "Kagome, I missed you so much!"

"Shippou, I missed you too!" Kagome said, hugged him back. She held him in front of her, so she could see his face. He looked a bit older now, and he was also a few inches taller.....a VERY FEW inches taller. "Wow Shippou, you've grown alot!" She lied through her teeth.

Shippou jumped to the ground and stood proudly to show off his growth.

"Kagome!" Called two voices, a man and a woman.

Kagome looked up to see Miroku and Sango running towards them with a baby and two little girls.

"Sango!" Kagome exclaimed, hugging the older girl who had been like a big sister to her. She pulled back when she noticed the baby on Sango's back. "Oh! You had a baby! That's so great!" She said and then hugged Miroku. Miroku was, well... Miroku, you have to love him anyway.

When she pulled back, she felt a tap on her leg. Kagome looked down to see two little girls staring up at her.

"'Scuse me, are you the lady daddy said was an old friend?" One of them asked.

Kagome knelt down to get a better look at them. "Oh my gosh! Sango, Miroku, are these girls yours too?"

The couple nodded proudly. "They're two years old. That's Mai," Miroku said, pointing to the twin on the right with a yellow wrap on her dark blue kimono. "That's Suki," he pointed to the girl on the left with a green wrap.

"And this is Mamoru." Sango said, turning so Kagome could see the baby.

"Oh, they're adorable!!" Kagome exclaimed, hugging the twins. Already, the twins seemed to like this new girl, so, they hugged her back.

"Come in side, we've made a small celebration for you're return." Miroku said, leading everyone into the hut.

Kagome sniffed and whipped her eyes, still getting over her sob-session and looked behind her at Inuyasha, who was staring up at the clouds with a distant look in his eyes.

"You comin'?" She asked.

Inuyasha looked back to her. "I'll be there in a while. Don't wait up." He said, the same distance in his voice.

And with that, he turned around and lept off into the trees. The birght red colour of his fire-rat haori fading into green as he ran further away. Soon enough, Kagome couldn't see him at all.

She stood, frozen, staring after the hanyou that was no longer there. 'I knew it. He doesn't want me here. He's upset that I'm back. He... he doesn't feel the same way I do. But then why would he hold me like that? Oh Inuyasha.... what's going on?' she thought.

"Kagome! Are you coming?" Sango called.

Kagome turned around and put on a half-fake smile. "Coming!". True, Kagome was worried about Inuyasha, but hey, she was still happy to see the rest of her feudal friends.

Miroku, Sango and Kagome all sat around the fire pit in the middle of the main room of their hut, the flames licking the side of the pot suspended over it, cooking thier food. Kilala curled up on Sango's lap while Shippo cuddled with Kagome. The twins played outside so that Mamoru could sleep.

"It's so wonderfull to have you back Kagome!" Sango exclaimed. "So, what have you been up too for the past three years?"

Kagome sighed, absent mindedly petting Shippou, who had long since fallen asleep. "To be honest, not much, I finished school and just kinda dragged on, it was pretty miserable. I checked the well every three days, but until just now, nothing." She said.

"Mhm, so did Inuyasha." Shippou mumbled in his sleep, turning over.

"What?"

"Inuyasha checked the well every three days for the entire three was absolutely miserable." The kitsune mummbled again.

"Speaking of Inuyasha, where did he go?" Miroku asked.

"He ran off, saying he'd be back in a while." Kagome answered sadly.

Sango and Miroku nodded in understanding. Miroku leaned over to his wife and whipsered in her ear. "Do you think he went to go get the-"

"He must've." She answered.

The rest of the night consisted of catching up, reminising of thier adventures and laughing whenever someone told a joke. Finaly, it was time to turn in. After putting Mai and Suki to bed, Sango regarded Kagome. "You're more than welcome to stay here." She said.

"Thanks Sango. I might take you up on that, but first I' gonna go look for Inuyasha." Kagome said as she headed towards the door.

"It's dangerous out there at night."

Kagome paused, the looked to her right to see her old bow and arrow, sitting long forgotten in an open chest. She walked over to it, and picked them up. "That's why I'm going."

Travelling through the forest was a lot harder than Kagome remembered. Of course, back then she had a flash light. Right now, she didn't even have the moon's light shining through the trees. She tripped over an over grown root and landed hard on her side. She looked up and saw that she tripped into a clearing. Kagome searched the skies.

And then it hit her.

There was no moon.

It was the new moon.

"That jerk." She mummbled to herself as she stood up and continued at a faster pace. "Has the time we've been apart changed so much? Does he not trust me anymore? But then why would he hold me like that?" So many thoughts swam through Kagome's mind that she couldn't sort through them all. She shook her head. No. Only one thought was allowed right now. Finding Inuyasha. But where could he have gone? Okay, two thoughts.

The sacred tree.

Kagome mentaly slapped herself. Why hadn't she thought of that before? Taking in a deep breath, Kagome looked around with was little light she had, trying to find something familiar so she could navigate her way toward the tree. After searching, she found a narrow path, and started walking down it.

High up in the branches of the Sacred Tree, Inuyasha sat, his hands tucked into the sleeves of his Haori, repeating one phrase in his mind. "Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!!"

"Ugh, why do I have to be such an idiot!" Inuyasha shouted to himself. He was beyond happy that Kagome was back. How could he not be happy.? He loved her. But of course, he had to go and do something stupid like hide from her the moment she returned, just because it was the new moon. Not because he didn't trust her, but because he was afraid. He always felt so weak on his human night, so he was afraid of saying something stupid to make her run off.

He sighed and put his head in his hands, holding back the hot tears of rage that built up inside him. And you KNOW it has to be bad to make Inuyasha tear. His head snapped up when he heard a twig snap, not too far away.

Kagome stood at the edge of the clearring, holding her bow to her chest, wide eyed.

"Inu-yasha?" She asked quietly.

"Kagome I-" He stopped short when the young miko slowly began walking toward him, each step seemed like a struggle. Finally she stopped at the bottom of the tree.

"Inuyasha....why?" Was all she chocked out before breaking down into sobs. Inuyasha quickly climbed down from the tree and embraced her.

"Hey, don't cry!" He said nervously. He hated seeing her cry.

"Why would you run away from me, just because it was the new moon? Do you not trust me anymore?!" She sobbed, more angry than upset.

"N-no!"

"Then what is it? Why can't you stand to be around me anymore?" She looked up at him with blooshot, tired eyes. "Is it because I'm not Kikyo?!"

Ouch, that it the soft spot. Inuyasha embraced her tighter. "No! Don't be so dumb! I just...I was afraid of saying something stupid." He sighed.

"Stupid? Like what?"

"Stupid like..... saying 'I l-"

"Inuyasha! Kagome!" Miroku and Shippou shouted as they ran into the clearing, torches ablaze. "There you are! You were taking so long, you had us worried!" Shippou exclaimed.

Miroku took a moment to analyze the scene in front of him and turned to Shippou who had jumped up onto his shoulder. "You think we interupted something?"

"No, DUH!" Inuyasha shouted.

"I think we should leave before he loses control." Shippou said nervously.

"I second that." Miroku said as the pair ran back into the forest.

Inuyasha and Kagome were silent, neither moving a muscle until Kagome looked back up at him. "You were saying?"

"I was afraid of sayin something stupid like... I... I missed you so much I couldn't stand it." He said.

Kagome smiled. "That's not stupid. I missed you too.

All Inuyasha could do was nod as he took her hand and started leading her back to the hut.

Kagome's heart was racing in her chest. 'He was going to say it. I know it. But he didn't. Does that mean he really doesn't love me? But....

'Why would he hold me like that?'
