Disclaimer: My last disclaimer for this story :tear: Well Inuyasha and stuff are not owned by me.

A/N: WARNING! There will be a very, very long author note at the end.

So many people read and reviewed my story. And I'm so grateful. Every time I see even one review, my face lights up and I can't help but smile. But this is the final chapter. The story was shorter than I believed at first, but that's alright 'cause I can't think of anything else I'd want to write. I'll babble some more at the end, just please read and enjoy this very short chapter.


Chapter eight: Finales

Kagome and Suzaku had been walking for about an hour and a half. Every time Suzaku would ask her what she wanted to do, she would jumped out of surprise, then try to shake it off and say that she really mind what they do. Finally Suzaku stop and Kagome looked at him curiously.

"Kagome, we need to talk." Kagome nodded. however, inside she was freaking out.

'Does he know? Is he mad? Oh I'm so STUPID!' she yelled at herself in her head. He grabbed her hand and led her to a nearby bench.

Kagome is something wrong?

Kagome shook her head and put on her brightest fake smile.

"Kagome, I'm not stupid. At first I thought you were just keeping a secret and that's why you were so stressed. But now you don't have to keep anything from me. So could you please tell me what's wrong?

Kagome sighed and stood up. She turned around slightly and grinned. "You know, you're pretty corny. Guys aren't supposed to be so sensitive. It's creepy."

Suzaku smiled and Kagome turned her back to him once more. After a moments silence, Suzaku spoke up. "It's someone else, isn't it?"

Kagome spun around, eyes widening. "Wh—wha…?"

"It's been obvious since the day I met you. I'm guessing it's someone from that other time?"

Kagome nodded slowly. How could she have been so oblivious? Of course he knew! "I'm so sorry that I didn't tell you sooner."

"Did you know exactly how you felt about him?"

"Not really. Not until yesterday."

"Then you have nothing to be sorry about." He leaned towards her and kissed her on the cheek. I'll see you later, okay?"

Kagome smiled at him. "Okay."

Suzaku got up, gave her one last smile, and left.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

When Kagome came home, she ran upstairs to pack her bag. Once finished, she went down to the kitchen and packed some food, as well as some extra ramen. She wrote a quick note telling her family that she was going back to the feudal era.

After making sure everything was set, she went outside and into the well house. The first thing she saw was Inuyasha leaning on the side of the well, facing the door. He looked shocked to see her so soon, but he shook his head and stood up to face the well.

"Let's go" he said simply. He sounded hurt.

'He must still be thinking about this morning' Kagome thought.

Just as Inuyasha was about to jump into the well, Kagome grabbed his hand and prevented him from moving. Inuyasha looked back at her and he clearly noticed the big smile on her face.

"Did you really mean it?" she asked.

"Mean what?"

"That you'd leave Kikyo for me."

"Yes" he replied as though it was a stupid question. Kagome smile widened if that were possible, and she pulled his hand so he was closer to her and she kissed him hard.

Luckily Inuyasha didn't take long to get over his surprise and kiss her back. Cupping the side of her face with the hand she wasn't still holding.

Sadly she pulled away too soon. Inuyasha gave a slight whimper and Kagome giggled. "Come on" she said, still laughing. She tried pulling him towards the well, but he wouldn't budge.

"What about your 'boyfriend'?" he asked.

"What boyfriend?" she asked looking completely serious that Inuyasha thought that she had forgotten everything. But she grinned once again and jumped onto the lip of the well. Inuyasha grinned back at her and jumped next to her.

Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her closer to him, and jumped into the well.

Author's Note: At the end of my last chapter story, I thanked all the people who reviewed. So I think it'd be nice if I did it again. Though this is to the people who reviewed by August 13, 2006. I'm not going to keep updating. Though I'll reply to reviews.

Special Thanks To:

lizziekins: My first reviewer. You got me worried about Inuyasha's reaction, 'cause you seemed so excited for it. I'm glad that you weren't disappointed.

sweetheart09: Thanks for your review. Pretty simple. You didn't say much. :)

Inuyashaluva212: So since I've updated, you love my story even more?

pure-tainted2006: Thank you for the review. And as you can see, I did update whenever I could. In fact I'm surprised I finished so soon.

InuKagsBabyGurl16: You were the reviewer, this story, that guessed exactly what was going to happen in chapter 5. I got one on my other story too. I love it.

InuGoddess715: I think things got interesting. How 'bout you? Hope you liked it!

KogasQueen16: I tried to write longer chapters, but no go. I did try to update faster for you though.

Danzy: I'm glad it was a good chapter and I updated soon. Though, in case you haven't noticed, you wrote the exact same thing on the three reviews. I appreciate them, but…still.

DARKgODESSSS: Yes it's an Inu/Kag fic. I love when he gets jealous over her too. That's why I wrote this. Though, if you'll believe it, I got the idea from two songs. She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5 and Unfaithful by Rihanna.

silentangelwings: Thanks for reviewing. But I don't know about amazing work. :blushes:

Kendra: Thank you.

Penny: HA! Finished it! Now I know I didn't disappoint you.

Brittany: Same for you. I continued this story.

Zoey: Same here. I continued this interesting story. However, when you say interesting, what exactly do you mean?

Black Diamond07: Reviewed twice, but one of my favorite reviewers. Now I know I can probably get away with writing a lemon in my story, but it was my first and the main reason I didn't really was because I more scared than anything. Believe me, I've read my fair share, but writing is a COMPLETELY different story for me. Perhaps in the near future I will write more detailed lemons, as long as the man doesn't shut me down when I do.

kouga's true lover: O and kewl. Well thanks.

Tessa: I couldn't help but make Kagome give in to Inuyasha. Jealousy happened and luckily it did make for a good read. ;)

Wrath: I don't blame you for reading this to make fun at it at first. Or for hating the show. I think there's something in there that everyone dislikes about it. For me, the fact that Inuyasha is always going off to see Kikyo. HE SHOULD BE WITH KAGOME! But you're probably not even reading this so…never mind.

euphoricabandonsystematicdestruction101: I wonder what she is made up of? Though I doubt daisies. I'd say something grosser, like…I don't know. And thank you for the threats. Note: always keep gum wrappers to put used gum in, be careful with the paperclip 'cause you could poke someone in the eyes with it, and watch out for the lint! You could…like…choke on it or something.

Mei-Sara: Yeah the newspaper thing was just because I had to make him curious about Kagome, want to hang around her, then fall for her. the newspaper thing was 'cause I based him on this really cute character that this really cute actor played on TV. Did you ever see X-Men The Last Stand? Well he played the evil guy who could multiply himself. But he also played a guy on the show Charmed. But I forgot his name all of a sudden.

SilentStar-009: First, yeah people do make Kagome out of character will the jealousy situations. They make her go crazy or something. Second, WAAAAHHHHHHH! I actually disappointed a reviewer! That's never happened before. At least I don't think so. I tried! Really I did! But I just couldn't write longer chapters:sigh: Alright I'm better now. Thank you for reviewing.

WallMagnet19: I couldn't make Suzaku evil. I thought about it, but I just couldn't work it out. the story seems to have a life of its own. Creepy. And the whole 'Make the chapters longer' that I got from everyone went without much success. I couldn't do it. And don't apologize! I freak out all the time. Not on reviews though.

minerva519: Yep, cool.

KENDRA: I'm not sure if you're the same Kendra as before, but I'll assume not and thank you for the review anyways.

Neko-Lady: Writers block is gotten over, and I thought it would be nice for Inuyasha to watch from the side-lines for once. And it's Suzuki, no Sakuzu, wait, wait, Suzaku. Yes! I remembered.

SuChAbAkA: Thank you for the idea. It was really good. In fact I actually considered it. But I didn't want the boys to meet for some reason. I can't really explain why.

copycater: Thank you for you're, uh, mew. And you're wow's.

young kagome: Thank you for you're support. In fact, people reviewed saying that it was a really good story and that I shouldn't delete it. however, I think I know what story their talking about. The titles are similar, but I haven't had the chance to read it. At least I don't think I have.

xiDOREyoux: In a way, she is kinda two timing Suzaku. Okay she's completely two timing him. but I couldn't think of anything else. I wanted Kagome and Inuyasha to realize their feelings for each other when it was forbidden in a way. I've always loved that plot. Like Romeo and Juliet. Forbidden love.

Mysterious-Moon06: Well, you might have loved it so far, but how about now?

I'm still Panicked Karma: One of my favorite authors. I've read Admired Affinity and it is a really good story. Very AU in chapter two, you know with the video games and Sesshomaru. But I'm looking forward to continue reading. And I read Saying Goodbye. Great story, short, and sad. I'm hoping you'll continue, even though it says that it's complete. It's alright if it is complete. Leaves the rest to the imagination.

Kage of the village hidden…: YAY! I'm glad the story make Dustin happy.

Neo-Crystal: Sorry, but since this is my first lemon, there is no unedited version. I am a sixteen year old girl. I would probably die with embarrassment.

That was a lot of people. (finally collapses on her computer. "Oh just a few…more…words")

That's the end of my story. I never thought about doing a sequel, but you never know. I've been thinking of a sequel for 'A Power Like Mine'.

I hope you all enjoyed it and I would still love reviews even if this is finished because they inspire me to keep writing.

Writing, lately, has become a hobby that I can do for my own enjoyment. In fact, I've been working on five other stories, not counting the one currently residing in my head, and two are already posted. Incomplete, but posted nevertheless. If you review, I will certainly keep writing. I will be in college so I need something to keep my mind off the real world.

Thank you again to those who reviewed and, hopefully, will continue reviewing. And for those of you who want the lemon: If I can get one hundred reviews on this story, I will add the lemon in chapter...whatever.See ya next time. Figuratively speaking of course.
