It's Always Raining

"Inuyasha…" She whispered. Her voice was soft, but you could hear the tears threatening to come out.

"No Kagome, just go, I don't love you like that." His words were harsh, though inside he was screaming to himself that he was lying. Kagome stared at the only man, err, hanyou, which she would, no could, ever love. And now he had rejected her. Golden eyes met brown and Inuyasha turned away shapely.

Kagome couldn't take I any longer, she put her head in her hands and ran, letting her tears make a trail behind her. Inuyasha shook his head, watching her go. He sighed and walked over to a nearby tree. Sitting down under it he looked at his clawed hands.

'Its better this way.' He said to himself. He looked up sharply as he felt something cold hit his head. Another one hit his cheek, then his forearm. Soon it was a downpour and in no time he was soaked. 'Why does it always rain?' He asked himself, watching the dark clouds overhead. Soon warmer water was running down his cheeks. 'What?' He thought as he touched his cheeks, only to discover that he was crying. 'But why?' He asked, looking deep into himself. Slowly he felt himself starting to sing.

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house

That don't bother me

I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out

I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while

Even though going on with you gone still upsets me

There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok

But that's not what gets me

His voice got louder as he put his soul into the song.

What hurts the most

Was being so close

And having so much to say

And watching you walk away

And never knowing

What could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was tryin' to do

Kagome looked up from where she had been crying. Was that singing she heard? Slowly she got up and started walking toward it.

It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go

But I'm doin' It

It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone

Still Harder

Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret

But I know if I could do it over

I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart

That I left unspoken

Kagome found the source of the song. She looked on from behind a tree, watching Inuyasha. Not even noticing the rain anymore.

What hurts the most

Is being so close

And having so much to say

And watching you walk away

And never knowing

What could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do

Yeah

Inuyasha didn't notice Kagome as he sang. All he could think of was the song, and how much he would miss her. Kagome watched him quietly. Neither of them noticed the rain slowly dying out.

What hurts the most

Is being so close

And having so much to say

And watching you walk awaaayyyy

And never knowing

What could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do

Slowly his voice got quieter.

Not seeing that loving you

That's what I was trying to do

Ooohhh...

Inuyasha opened his eyes as he finished the song, only to find Kagome standing right in front of him. No words were spoken as they embraced eachother.

"I'm sorry." Inuyasha said quietly in her ear.

"Me too." Said Kagome. She let go of him and looked at the sky where the clouds were starting to disappear. Inuyasha watched as she stretched one of her hands out in front of her.

"It's always raining." She stated as the last droplets of rain dripped into her outstretched hand.

"And yet there is rarely a rainbow." Said Inuyasha quietly. They smiled at each other.

A sparkling arch of colors ran across the sky overhead as they spent the rest of the night just enjoying each others company. And maybe, just maybe, a little more than that.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
