Hey hey I'm back. with the third and FINAL installment of this lil story here. I'm sorry for the tardiness, but lots o stuff has been happening:

Recap: skools a bitch, exams comin up, projects to do for half of my grade for the exams, and all that jazz. Added to the factor that I have no internet at home so I use the library and crap. Yeah….and I'm preally pissed and tired and I have a cold, this is the worst.

Anyway. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I really don't like doing this, its in the other chapters, go look for it.

Inuyasha led Kagome towards the bleachers of the stadium. Behind said bleachers was a pipe where she could clean herself off. He put her down and took two steps backwards, she looked up at him and whispered her thanks before turning her full attention to the pipe and its clean water, beginning the tedious, but not to mention wholly welcomed, task of cleaning herself.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" she asked somewhat resignedly, looking up at him, to be honest, she was nervous being this close to him. Alone.

He looked at her and scratched his cheek in a nervous manner. How was he supposed to tell her? How could he tell her? It would look pretty dumb if he stuttered…what if she rejected him?

"I-I"

Great he was stuttering,

He blushed barely. She looked at him with something akin to wonder; he was blushing? Stuttering?

Just because he was talking to her!

What did he have to say that would warrant such an action?

"I just wanted to apologize" he finally got out. He took a deep breath and looked at her. She looked at him with wide eyes; he was apologizing? For what?

"Why?" she voiced her thoughts staring at him like he just told her he was a half demon with fluffy dog-ears. In other words, like he was crazy.

"Because I want to. I was wrong in picking on you and all of that so I'm sorry" he got that entire statement out without stammering, but he still had one last thing to do.

"Why would you want to apologize now? I-I should be apologizing, especially for Saturday. And I'm really sorry by the way, I didn't mean it" she said blushing at the last part, she was still confused as to why her high school bully just decided to turn a new leaf.

He stepped forward and grabbed her wet and somewhat slimy hands in his. "No. You- you don't need to apologize." He said, "I understand what happened, and I think I deserved it…I think. It was just kind of a…weird punishment."

"Kikyo pushed me and I ruined the game I'm so-" he stopped her from finishing.

"Its not your fault so stop apologizing"

"I'm so-" she caught herself, blushing.

She looked cute when she blushed. He decided he wanted her to blush more when he was around her.

She was such an idiot! He told her to stop apologizing and there she was apologizing like a dolt. Kagome mentally kicked herself. Well she couldn't help it, it came naturally, being a dolt I mean…. also with the apologizing thing. It was a habit she picked up and really wanted to get rid of.

"I have something I want to tell you," he hesitantly said. her eyes found his and hers widened impossibly. "I've picked on you because- I saw it as an excuse to-to talk to you."

"Why?" she breathed, dumbfounded. Why would he look for an excuse to talk to her? Unless…no! It was impossible to think that. This was not a declaration of love!

…Especially not to her…..

"Because I've had a crush on you since I can remember" he inwardly sighed with relief. He had finally gotten that off his chest.

To say Kagome was taken back would be an understatement. Said girl was floored. She blinked wide-eyed at him as a blush quickly stole its way up her cheeks.

"Really?" she stammered, "I-I've"

Noticing she was probably not going to get anything out, he decided to take it that she liked him back. He pulled her towards him, doing something he had always wanted to do.

He blew a raspberry in her cheeks, his childish side getting the better of him in this situation.

Kagome put down the pen and closed the small wire-bound book with a smile. Finally she had written that and got it out of her head.

"So are you done now?" Inuyasha impatiently asked from below her. They were cuddling on his bed when she had presented the idea of writing down the story of how they got together. At first he had protested against the idea, saying that she was just itching to write something and was desperate for a plot.

She had sighed exasperatedly because he had found out her ploy, but continued to beg him until he caved.

And cave he had.

He had done so after a while and he had turned out to be a big help in the writing. Apparently he had a good memory and reminded her of stuff she forgot on the three-day lapse.

She looked up at him and scowled playfully, "yes I believe we are" she said then kissed his nose.

"Good" he said capturing her lips with his own. She pulled away after a while and he scowled at her.

"How long has it been?" she asked, much to his dismay.

"About two or so years. Give or take a few months." He replied despairingly. She smiled at him, "are we totally finished with this topic now?" he asked.

"Yes, yes my attention seeking puppy we are" he said with a giggle.

THE END

There all done!

I really hope you enjoyed this as much as I did.

This chap was hard to write cuz it the ending and not much really needed to be said, and I also had a pretty rough time with the last scene.

I seem to be liking ending things with the characters being the authors…..oh well.

Well see ya around!
