Well hello again! I hope you like this story it is my first kag/inu f/f. Well read and review!

BY THE WAY I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE INUYASHA CARACTERS!

CHAPTER 1

Kogome's POV

The light of the moon shone through my bedroom window to glitter reflectively on the beautiful shard of the sacred jewel of four souls that I held in my trembling hands. A fresh round of tears spilled down my cheeks and I felt my heart rip into shreds as I made my decision. I turned slowly away from the window and slipped out of my room and then the front door only pausing long enough to grab a green note pad and a pen from the table. I made my way to the bone eater's well through my tears. I fell to my knees beside it and let out a soul shattering sob.

"Oh Inuyasha! Why oh why did it have to be you! Why couldn't I have fallen in love with...Hojo... or, or anyone besides you... you, who, are in love with Kikyo."

I shook all over and my head pounded and my heart hurt. I would help him get the last shard of the jewel and then I would leave him forever I thought glumly. I looked down at my watch and saw that it was time. I stood my shoulders set in a grim determination. I would not tell the others.

"It is time." I said.

Inuyasha's point of view

I paced outside of the bone eater's well, where was she? she had been gone for three days now that was plenty of time to get what she needed and come back. Had I said something to anger her? I thought back and remembered her smiling face as she had gone into the well and knew that she was not angry at least not with me.

Then a thought that I didn't particularly relish came to mind what if she was with a guy from her time and she had forgotten about us already? Just that thought made my insides curl.

"She would not betray me like that." I said dismissing the thought almost immediately, yet I paced faster.

Where was she?

Suddenly I heard rustling noises inside the well. Moonlight illuminated the well through the trees and I felt relief when I saw the familiar face come up above the wall of the well as moonlight fell on her face I knew something was wrong. I smelled tears and sadness coming from her and I could not keep myself from going to her and lifting her out of the well.

She was lighter and seemed to be almost breakable.

"Hello Inuyasha." she said softly and her eyes shone like obsidian.

"What's wrong Kagome?" I asked as I set her on her feet.

She gave a watery smile and she smelled even more of sadness.

"Nothing..." A sharp arrow through my heart was the result of her lie. She trusted me with her life, she did not trust me wih her heart, but she trusted this Hojo with it. The thought brought anger and jealousy and more pain than it should have, if he breaks her heart I will kill him.

I grabbed her shoulders and gave her a gentle shake.

"Don't lie to me Kagome, I want to help you if I can." I looked into her eyes and saw a pain so great that I pulled her close and held her tightly.

"Inu don't do this, not now." I stiffened and let her go. Tears were streaming down her face and I saw that she was trembling.

Damn me for wanting to comfort her, and damn her for rejecting me.

"What in the devil's seven hells do you want me to do! I try to comfort you and you don't want me to!"

At my outburst she started sobbing and cried harder. I cursed myself silently, I had expected anger not this pain. Then something broke loose inside me and I did something I had wanted to do for a long time now...

Sango's POV

"Do you think that she will come back Sango?" Shippo asked suddenly turning to me.

"I hope so, I really do" I said remembering her confession on the night before she went to her own era.

FLASHBACK :

Kagome lay beside Sango in a seperate hut from where Kaede, Inuyasha, and Miroku meditated.

A fire burned in the center of the hut. Both women looked into the flames thinking. Sango, do you love Miroku I mean really love him?"

"Yes I do, but don't tell him."

"What does it feel like?"

"I don't know how to explain it ... its like..."

"Like your whole world depends on what that one person thinks and feels about you, and their happiness is all that matters even if it means hurting for the rest of your life to make sure that they are happy even though you are not." Kagome finished sadly.

"You are in love with Inuyasha." It was a statement not a question.

She nodded her head sadly.

"He loves Kikyo still even after all the times she tried to kill him... me, I was always only his jewel finder and nothing more. No matter how much I love him what I want can never be. Because even if he does care for me Kikyo consumes his heart and I cannot bear to be second to Kikyo or any other woman."

Sango looked at kagome thoughtfuly.

"Kagome you are one of the most kindhearted people I know ... yet I think that you are wrong about him and his feelings for Kikyo."

Kagome just shrugged her shoulders and turned to the wall and fell asleep.

END FLASHBACK :

"Sango? Are you all right?" Miroku asked concern edging his voice, concern for me. I blushed to the roots of my hair.

"Yes Miroku, I am. Yet I fear that Kagome is not," I bit my bottom lip not knowing if I should say what I knew or not.

"What ails her Sango?" Kaede asked quietly.

I decided that it would be better to tell them then to make up a lie.

" Four nights ago, when you, Miroku, and Inuyasha were meditating," I blushed recalling my own admission to love I looked down at my hands that were nervously twisting. with an effort I stilled them and looked up at them again.

"well, she told me that she was in love with Inuyasha."

I THINK I WILL LEVE IT AT THAT! UNTIL NEXT TIME!
