Time had past since the horrid car wreck and Kagome was strong enough to go back home. After Kagome came back, everyone was so happy to see her. Since then, the school year was ending and the senior class was the most excited.

"Are you excited that we're finally done with high school?" Inuyasha asked at the lunch biting into a sandwich.

"I am!" Miroku said at the lunch table. "Ayame and I are going to Oklahoma University,"

Kagome sighed. "Sort of…" Kagome only stared at her food. Inuyasha looked up to his girlfriend with a smiled. Kagome turned to him with a small smile noticing a piece of bread from his sandwich on the corner of his mouth. She gently brushed the food of his mouth.

Inuyasha smirked. "You don't seem that happy," Inuyasha continued to eat his sandwich.

"We're going to different universities and we wont see each other often, "Kagome said sadly. Inuyasha just laughed.

"Inuyasha, we're barely going to see each other and all you can do is laugh?" Kagome asked confused.

"Oh, my sweet, sweet Kagome. Don't fret, my darling. We'll see each other. Don't worry,"

"Kagome, what are you going to study?" Miroku asked.

"I'm going to NYU to study to be a Biomechanical Engineer," Kagome said in an intelligent way.

"A biowha?" Miroku asked sipping a Yoo-hoo.

"To make it simple for you, it's someone who makes machines for a hospital, understand?" Kagome asked Miroku sweetly as if he was a child.

"Yeah, I got it. Thanks Kagome," Miroku replied sarcastically. He turned to Inuyasha. "What are you doing, Inuyasha?"

"I'm going to New York State University. I'm studying to be a doctor. Doctors saved my girl's life and I want to be able to help others like that,"

Kagome smiled. Inuyasha blushed as Miroku smirked. "Aww….How cute!" Miroku said jokingly.

"Kagome, NYU and NYS are not that far. We'll be able to see each other. Cheer up, babe." Inuyasha said sweetly.

Kagome smiled. "You always find the positive things in situations, don't you?"

Inuyasha smiled sweetly still eating his sandwich.

Another week had past since that day and it was the last day of school. The whole day was basically as speeches and saying goodbye to friends. It was 3:00 and everyone was crying and saying goodbye. Inuyasha and Kagome drove home together.

"Inuyasha," Kagome said as Inuyasha drove. "I'm leaving for New York tomorrow."

Inuyasha turned to her quickly. "I know," he spoke said "But why so soon?" He asked pulling into the driveway.

"My classes start next week and I have to go," Kagome replied sadly.

"I'm not leaving to New York for another month. I can't because I'm working as an instructor at Skateboard Camp for three weeks," Inuyasha said sadly. Inuyasha pulled into her driveway. "What time do I need to be at the airport?"

"At 10:00 am. My plane leaves at 10:15." Kagome said sadly stepping out of the car.

"Okay, I'll see you there. I love you," Inuyasha said.

"I love you too, bye" Kagome said.

"Bye," Inuyasha said. Kagome walked into the house.

The night seemed to have lasted forever. Neither Inuyasha nor Kagome could sleep. All they could do was lie on the bed and stare at the ceiling imagining that they won't see each other for a month.

Soon the big day came, Inuyasha, Dr. Higurashi, and Sota stood with Kagome at the front of the gate before departure.

"Bye Mom, I'll miss you," Kagome said hugging her mom who was sniffleing.

"Bye sweetie and don't forget to call when you get there," She said sweetly.

"I will," Kagome left the embrace and moved to her younger brother. "Bye Sota," she said in a hug with him.

"Bye Kagome, I'll miss you," Sota replied.

"I'll miss you too." Kagome said letting go of Sota and moved over to Inuyasha who made a small smile.

"Can you guys give me a minute alone with Inuyasha?" She asked her family. They nodded and left to go to the food court.

"Oh Inuyasha, I'm going to miss you so much," Kagome said pulling Inuyasha in a hug. Kagome closed her eyes to keep from crying. All she did was smile and listen to the suns of Inuyasha's heart beating.

"So will I. I can't stand living a month without you," Inuyasha said stroking her head lightly.

"Now boarding for flight to Buffalo, New York" a voice on an intercom said. Kagome let go of her boyfriend. Her tear-stained face smiled at Inuyasha as she spoke. "I have to go,"

"I love you," Inuyasha said rubbing his thumb up her cheek to get rid of a stray tear.

"I love you, too," Kagome grabbed her carry on and she walked to the gate. She waved at her family and turned the corner losing sight of her.

Inuyasha smiled as he couldn't wait for this month to past.
