Someone to love

DISCLAIMER- I don't own Inuyasha

CH.1 Blood and chocolate

I don't know what I'm feeling anymore. Maybe just sadness or loneliness. Confusion, and sorrow. Who do you love Inuyasha? I know you must have some sort of feeling for me. But I know you love Kikyo. I know you kept a promise to her. Are you going to keep it? What are you going to do? Maybe I am just the 2nd runner up. You've loved Kikyo a long time before I ever existed. When I first met you, you thought I was Kikyo.

Kagome sighed. She had been in deep thought lately. She knew that Inuyasha still loved Kikyo And even though he did, she made a promise to him- that she'd always be there for him. Even if it killed her.

Why she'd been thinking of this, is because lately Inuyasha had been running off, and probably to see Kikyo. Why am I so jealous? He would talk about her all the time. He looked and sounded like a little boy with his favorite toy. Kagome's heart ached.

Kagome walked along side with Sango, talking and laughing as usual. Miroku, of course, flirted with Sango, Shippo walked by Kilala, and Inuyasha was in his own little world. Every so often Kagome would glance at Inuyasha just to see if he was, at all, paying any attention to her. She sighed and laced her own fingers together.

"Hey you guys," Kagome began, "How about we sit down for lunch?" Inuyasha's ears twitched. He stopped and turned around. "Damnit Kagome! We have to hurry and find the jewel shards!" She ignored the answer when all the others agreed with her. "Kagome?" a little voice said. She looked down and smiled warmly, "Yes Shippo-chan?" Shippo smiled his childish smile. "Can we have some ramen?"

"Yeah Kagome. We haven't had a lot of that lately. Do you have any in your pack?" Miroku asked. "Umm. I'm not sure. Let me check." She grabbed the yellow backpack and searched threw all of her junk. "We have just enough for everyone for lunch." Kagome said happily. Soon, when they started eating Inuyasha twitched his ears. He sniffed. "Damnit! My son of a bitch Half-BROTHER is comin'!"

Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha got into their positions. "Kagome! Get back! I don't want you getting hurt!" Kagome nodded and ran to Shippo. He jumped into her arms and they waited for the demon lord to get here. I want to help out too. I just don't like being so helpless all the time. Before long, Sesshoumaru showed up.

"Hello dear brother," He began, "I've come here for tetsaiga …and this time… I will get it!" He grabbed tokijin, ran towards Inuyasha, and the battle began. While the taiyoukai and the hanyou battled, Sango, Miroku, and Kagome watched the battle.

"I don't know why Sesshoumaru can't just give up on tetsaiga? He has a strong sword already." Kagome said with a sigh. "Your right. Tokijin is a very handy sword. He also has Tenseiga as well." Sango chimed in. Miroku nodded his head in agreement.

"Damn you!" Inuyasha yelled, dodging most of his brother's attacks. Inuyasha swung his sword at Sesshomaru, but he easily dodged all of Inuyasha's attacks. Sesshoumaru ignored Inuyasha's comment and stopped. Inuyasha did the same. "Give me your sword, and I will spare your life… yet again." Sesshoumaru replied with no emotion what so ever. "I DON'T THINK SO!" Inuyasha yelled, swinging his sword. The battle began again.

"Stop!" Kagome yelled. No answer came from the two demons. Inuyasha was banged up pretty badly, but continued to fight. Soon, Inuyasha was on the ground with Sesshoumaru looking over him. "You do not deserve tetsaiga." Sesshoumaru said, his voice dripping with hatred. Inuyasha tried to get up, but stumbled back to his original spot. "D-Damnit." Was all he could say.

Sesshoumaru's arm turned green, and was about to strike when an arrow scraped his shoulder blade. He quickly turned around. Kagome ran up to Inuyasha and glared at Sesshoumaru. "Leave Inuyasha alone!" Kagome yelled. "Out of my way wench." The demon lord spat. Kagome didn't say anything. Sesshoumaru looked at the girl and lifted an eyebrow. Why is she not trembling? Why can't I smell fear on her? Kagome knelt down beside Inuyasha. ""Go away Sesshoumaru." Kagome replied coolly. He growled. "Inuyasha's too weak to fight right now." She looked up at him with sad eyes. He growled and turned around. "Next time, I will kill him." And with that, he walked away.

When he was out of site, the others ran up to Inuyasha and Kagome. "That was really brave of you Kagome." Sango said. "I-idiot." Inuyasha groaned, trying to get up. Kagome replied to him with a 'Hmph.' "What? Did you want to be killed or something?"

Kagome said to Inuyasha with a glare. He swore under his breath. Kagome stood up and looked at Inuyasha. Inuyasha was about to say something, when a hand stuck in front of his face. It came from Kagome. "Don't hurt yourself tryin' to get up. You still need to get back to Kaede's hut." Kagome smiled warmly at him.

Inuyasha's reply with that was a 'Feh' but took her hand non the less. When he got up, she let go. Pink slightly slipped unto her cheeks. She and the others got back to Kaede's hut, and treated Inuyasha.

She turned towards her friends and said, "Well… our lunch was kind of ruined huh." She turned to Inuyasha. "Umm. Is it okay if I go back to my time and get some supplies?" She showed Inuyasha her bag, and showed him that there was nothing in it but her schoolbooks. "I swear this time I'll be back by tomorrow."

He sighed in annoyance but shrugged. "If you don't get back here by tomorrow morning I'm gonna go to ya and drag ya over here!" Kagome smiled warmly at his comment and giggled. "Be back tomorrow you guys!" She ran off to the well.

She jumped in the magical well. When she got to the other side of the well she smiled. Even if Inuyasha didn't love her the way she did for him, at least she knew that he had some kind of feeling for her. That's better then nothing right?

She climbed up the well and walked out. She stopped dead in her tracks. What are they doing over here? She tiptoed to the other side and sighed. They'd never leave me alone if they had seen me climb out of the well.

'They' walked to the other side and gasped. "KAGOME!" uh-oh. He's with? Figures. She sweat dropped and waved. "Hi Houjo, Eri, Yuka, Ayumi." Houjo ran up to her as fast as he could. "Kagome! We all heard you had the flu so we decided to come over to see if you're okay." "You know," Eri began, "Cuz you're not in the hospital this time!" Kagome smiled.

They left later on that evening. Kagome hadn't been home in a long time so she was filled with questions from her family. She sighed and when her mom came in with dinner, her eyes sparkled. "ODEN!" She blocked out all the questions and the comments that tried to get her attention and focused on her Oden. "Yum. That was so good mom! Thanks!" Kagome said, excusing herself from the table.

"I'll be back later! I just have to get some supplies! I'm leaving in the morning!" She waved and ran off. "Does she really have to leave in the morning?" Her mom wondered aloud. "She just seems to have two busy lives. She does what she can." Kagome's grandpa said.

She got home from the store with 2 weeks worth of ramen and a few days worth of chocolate for Shippo, bandages, medicine, and some donuts. "I hope they like the donuts…"

She ran up to her room and collapsed on her bed. "So… Soft…" She said, soon falling asleep.

Hey. I hope that this chapter was long enough, and was okay. Plz R&R. Thanks,

Love,
