The Best is Yet to Come
Prologue
Kagome's P.O.V
The candlelight flickers off of the fine china that we use every night. It glints like beautiful fire, yellow and orange hues the dominant colors. It looks like life, like the life I dreamed of several years ago, and it brings flash backs of happier times. It isn't that I'm unhappy with Sesshomaru, just unhappy with the monotony that comes with being with him, and the fact that I've fallen out of love with him. Every night we would eat off of the fine china in candlelight, before heading to bed and sleeping. The next morning, we would get up and go to class; well, I would go to class. I have tons of them. Going to school to be a doctor is not simple. Well, right now I'm finishing up my core classes at the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tokyo. Then I will be attending the Faculty of Medicine for my Undergraduate Degree. I only have one semester left. Sesshomaru's already finished his schooling. He's already finished with college completely. He has every degree he could get with a business major. He owns his own company, and unbeknownst to the people, most of China, Korea, and Vietnam. Now, he's working on owning Japan.
Lately, it feels like I'm just here. Not for him, not for myself, but just to be here. The jewel had brought me back to the present time after the last battle with Naraku. Everyone died in the Feudal Era either during the last battle or of old age in later years. Inuyasha was dragged down to hell with Kikyo. I was in love with Inuyasha, but he was always with love with Kikyo. Now, he can be with her for eternity. Sesshomaru, surprisingly, was the one who held me as I sobbed through the late hours of the night and into the wee hours of the morning. I guess it escalated from there, and we've been living together for almost four years now. And…he's back to his emotionless self that I knew so well in the feudal era. I can't tell what goes on in his head when he looks at me anymore. He's like a reanimated dead man; he only eats, sleeps, and occasionally goes to work. I used to see something in those molten, amber eyes, but now all I see is lifeless, golden stones.
Ichigo's P.O.V.
It all just happened so fast. It's like a nightmare that keeps coming back night after night. I had imagined myself with Rukia many times before, but I always pictured our relationship to be better, not like this. I think she developed a hero complex after I saved her so many times. It made her want to be with me always, as more than just a friend. I was all for the relationship at first, but now I just want to end it; but I can't bring myself to break it off. It might break her heart or cause her to go completely violent and start attacking me. She has a habit of doing that when she's pissed at me... I had imagined our relationship to be less painful and happier. When it started out, we were happier and did stuff together like every normal couple. Well were as normal as we could be with us both being soul reapers and all, but as time went on, Rukia began getting paranoid and obsessive. She's constantly accusing me of sleeping around, which is ridiculous because she's always around me. I can't take this relationship anymore. I have to find away out.
