I'm traveling back to Konoha with Kikyo, reflecting on my parting conversation with Gaara-kun.

*Flashback*


"I'm sorry Gaara-kun, but I have to go back."
"No. You can stay here. With me." he says, moving towards me.
"I'm sorry, but I made a comitment to transport Kikyo to and from Sand, and I have to stick to it."
I kiss him good bye.
"I will be back though. I promise you."

*End Flashback*

Kikyo notices my thoughtful expression.
"What's up?"
"Huh? Oh. Nothing."
"Nuh uh. I can tell that somethings up. Penny fer your thoughts."
"My thoughts are none of your business."
"Ooooh.... Ouch. That hurt."
"I'm sorry Kikyo. I just don't want to talk about it."
He nods his head knowingly and lets the subject drop. I decide to start singing 'I Wont Say I'm In Love'. Kikyo sings with me, hearing the truth behind the words, realixing what I didnt want to talk about.
