Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Stupid by Sarah Mclachlan.

I opened up the blinds in our bedroom to see the bright, fiery sun, which is the opposite of what I felt like.

Night lift up the shades

Let in the brilliant light of morning

But steady there now

For I am weak and starving for mercy

I feel terrible right now. I'm tired, and my body hurts all over.

Sleep has left me alone

To carry the weight of unravelling where we went wrong

It's all I can do to hang on

To keep me from falling

Into old familiar shoes...

He hurt me again last night. What provokes him to do this sort of thing? Is it my fault? Maybe it is - Because I made a mistake saying "yes."

How stupid could I be

A simpleton could see

That you're no good for me

But you're the only one I see

I went to my bathroom to inspect the damage in the mirror. My reflection scared me. I had bruises all over my aching body, and a burn from where he used his lighter on me. But my face looks the worst of anything. I have two black eyes, I'm almost positive that my nose is broken, and my lips have so much blood on them that it looks like I'm wearing lipstick. My hair is a mess.

Love has made me a fool

It set me on fire and watched as I floundered

Unable to speak

Except to cry out and wait for your answer

He is gone right now. I am relieved, but I know that my vacation won't last long. He is going to come back for more.

But you come around in your time

Speaking of fabulous places

Create an oasis

Dries up as soon as you're gone

You leave me here burning in this desert without you...

It hurts to walk. It hurts to sit down. It hurts to move. Not only did he hit me and burn me, but he also took my innocence away from me. I told him I wasn't ready yet, but that made him angry. Why did I ever say "yes" to him?

He didn't hurt me when we were dating. We were both so happy together. It was the greatest day of my life when he asked me to marry him. I eagerly said "yes" and couldn't wait for a happy life with him. But after the "I do's", it all went downhill from there. He started hurting me, and it got worse each day.

Everything changes

Everything falls apart

Can't stop to feel myself losing control

But deep in my senses I know...

I need to escape, but what good will it do? I would see his disgusting face everywhere. No matter how much I want to, I can't leave. It is the sickest thing, but I still love him.

Kouga Matsuno, I hate you for making me love a jerk like you.

I can't take this anymore. I need to talk to someone about this. After I got married to Kouga, he cut off any contact I had with other guys. But what Kouga didn't know is that I secretly kept contact with one of my best friends I've ever had: Inuyasha Takahashi. Inuyasha doesn't know about Kouga hurting me, but I've had enough. I think now is the time to tell Inuyasha.

I put on makeup to cover up my bruises and dress in long sleeves and jeans to cover up my broken body. I get in my car and drive over to Inuyasha's house with newfound hope. I walk up to his door and knock with confidence. He opens up the door and gives me a big smile.

"Hey Inuyasha, do you have time to talk?"

2 Years Later...

"I love you so much."

There I lay in Inuyasha's strong arms, feeling the happiest I had in a long time. I was no longer in Kouga's grasp. Once I told Inuyasha about Kouga's abuse, we immediately got Kouga put in jail. At that moment, I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted off of my shoulders. After Kouga was gone, Inuyasha and I had become even closer. He never gave me one single bruise. We eventually got married, and this time, I know that I haven't made a mistake saying "yes."

"I love you too, Inuyasha."

Yay for new story! I really hope you liked it! I suggest that you listen to this song because it is one of my all time favorites (not the original, but the Mark Bell Mix). I liked writing this story, and I hope you liked reading it! Please Please Please Review!
