When Kagome and InuYasha got back to the shrine, Sota and Grandpa were asleep. But her mother had waited up for them.
“Did you have a nice time?” she said smiling brightly as she opened the door.
“Yes, thank you,” said Kagome, smiling back as she and InuYasha entered the house.
The first thing Kagome saw when she walked in was the books she had left on the school roof sitting on a small table next to the door. Stunned speechless with confusion at first, she had a feeling of dread and foreboding come over her.
“Mom, I accidentally left those books at school today. How did they get here?”
“Oh, while you were gone that nice young man Hojo came looking for you to give them back to you. He said he found them on the school roof.”
Kagome glanced up at InuYasha and caught his eye. He looked annoyed.
“Um, did you tell him where I had gone by any chance?” she said nervously.
“I thanked him and told him you were out with your boyfriend and that I would be happy to give them to you for him.”
Kagome groaned and put her hand to her head.
“Boyfriend?” said InuYasha quizzically.
“Well you are Kagomes boyfriend, aren't you dear?” her mother replied. “Or maybe even something more?”
InuYasha blushed, looked away and mumbled something unintelligible.
“Gee, I'm really tired,” said Kagome grabbing his hand and heading quickly for the stairs. “Good night Mom.”
They got in the bedroom and she closed the door, leaning her back on it and looking at him with trepidation.
“I'm sorry if my Mom put you on the spot like that.” She said.
InuYasha sat on the bed, and gave of sigh of resignation and frustration. Slowly he rested his head in his hands, the cap falling disregarded to the ground.
“You know Kagome, we never really discussed our relationship. What it is and where it's going. And I know you have been patiently waiting for me to make my intentions known.”
Kagome bit her lip and shrugged.
“I was always willing to wait, as long as I was with you,” she said softly. “I thought everything would fall in to place, given time.”
He looked up at her, and for the first time since he had come, lust was not the dominant look in his eyes. Instead there was something else that she had never seen before.
“Come here,” he said quietly, opening his arms to her.
She pushed off the door and slowly walked into his arms. Tenderly he cradled her to him, gently stroking her soft hair.
“Sometimes I wonder why you put up with me, and stay by my side. I know I can be immature, arrogant and stubborn. I don't know why I act that way. I just open my big mouth without thinking.”
“I love you InuYasha,” she said in a small voice, “I guess that's why.”
He took a deep breath, held it a minute, and expelled it.
“Kagome, I…love you too.”
At his words her heart welled up, and she closed her eyes as the tears fell. How she had always longed to hear those words from him, but had just been thankful that she could be by his side. She began to tremble and sob softly.
“Don't cry,” he said, concerned, and held her face in his hands. “Everything will be okay between us.”
“Sorry,” she said, wiping the tears from her eyes, “I'll be alright. I was just so overcome when you said you loved me, I had always hoped but never expected you would say that.”
“So, what do you want to do about this boyfriend business,” he said. “I don't know what being your boyfriend really entails in your time. Is that what you want?”
“If I have to introduce you to my friends, which I think is now inevitable; I would introduce you as my boyfriend.”
“Do you feel ready to do that?” he said.
Kagome frowned.
“It depends. Can you hide your hanyou nature, and your lust?”
He shrugged.
“Let's play it by ear,” she said, putting her arms around him again. “Tomorrow when I see my friends at school, I'll decide."
