Theme: moon watching
Summary: Kagome and Inuyasha hurry to see the darkening moon.
They were running, and she giggled while she pulled his hand and weaved through the forest, drawing him closer to the field of flowers.
“Come on!” she said, and Inuyasha caught a glimpse of her face in the moonlight, her eyes bright from excitement. He humored her, going along with this impulse that pulled them from their beds.
“Look!” They stopped at the edge. Inuyasha followed her gaze up to the moon, full with just a sliver of smoky black creeping on the edge.
He heard her sigh heavily, sitting onto the ground and waiting for him to join her. She patted the spot next to her. Reluctantly, he sat, and he scoffed a little, looking into the dark sky of fading stars. “It’s just a moon.”
“Just look at it,” she demanded, still wearing a smile. She reclined backward, and her hair fanned out over the flowers.
He mimicked her motions, sighing heavily as he watched the moon and let the quiet night by Kagome’s side pull him into a serene lull.
“Huh,” he said, looking more carefully at the moon. He could feel her practically grinning next to him.
“A lunar eclipse,” she said happily.
He turned toward her. “How did you know?”
“I didn’t,” she said as he met her eyes. Even after six years of marriage, he still felt like he could drown in them, and die happy. “I just wanted to see the moon... with you.”
He cracked a small smile, and he whispered. “I guess we’re lucky then, huh.”
Her voice was like a whisper against his heart. “Yes, we are.”
Kagome took his hand, looked at the moon again, and then back to him. Her eyes didn’t waver. Her hand squeezed his, and he felt the warmth created there, reminding him of home.
