Death of my Love

That was just it; I couldn't take the pain any longer, thinking about everything we've done together. It hurt too much to think strait now that she was gone...no I can't think that way, she is still here with me... Even as I held the small glowing orb, I felt her fingers run down my cheek and I leaned into that warmth that was splayed in her palm. I then felt tears come down my cheeks that I've never felt in a long time since my mother died... "Why?" I asked her, even though I knew the truth behind that question. I didn't care; I just wanted to hear her voice...

"Because..." She said, "...I had to keep them from killing you, I couldn't bear the thought of your death. I-" I interrupted her by yelling, "I DON'T CARE ABOUT DEATH! I WANT YOU BACK! Can't you see that?! DEATH can come and get me for all I care as long as I can be with you!"

Tears still streamed down my face and I could still sense her presence as she ran into my arms and said, "STOP IT! You don't want it, don't say that! You're not going to die like that because I won't let it happen to you!" I could feel her arms wrap themselves around me and I wrapped mine around her to find out if I can touch her and I was able to so I tightened my grip in our embrace. I looked down at her, satisfied that I could see her face and her deep, dark, chocolate eyes like I wanted as those gorgeous eyes stared back at me with tears of her own.

Right then, I grabbed her chin and brought my mouth down on her soft lips as I inhaled her scent on my breathe, loving the way she taste as I kissed her and she kissed me back with longing and passion. I've never known how a ghost's lips felt, I hate to say that word but I had to admit, but her lips were wonderful. After awhile, we broke apart, panting, I smirked at her and she laughed, but then the air felt heavy around her and my smiled disappeared as I said, "You know you want to live again, to be with me and to raise our children with me and if I could do anything to take back your death, I would do it..." I looked at the glowing orb, "Which reminds me..."

Looking at her, I held the jewel up to her and said, "This grant any wish right?" She nodded, but was about to say something and I interrupted her, "Then I can wish you back to life in your real body-" She interrupted me this time and said, "No, that cannot bring me back, Inuyasha. I was born of that jewel in your hands and the jewel can't do it, which is the only wish it can't grant. I'm sorry...-"

I burst into anger, "You said it would grant any wish I desire, why won't it grant me you?! I don't want anyone else! Is that so difficult, enough for the jewel to understand?! I won't be able to stand myself without you here by my side!" She looked away from me trying to hide the tears that were pouring down her cheeks, and I cursed each tear that fell down her face as she walked over to our tree. "I love you! Don't you want to stay with me, Kagome?! Just tell me what I can do to get you back and I'll do it!" I then walked up to her and grabbed her arms and made her look at me with complete seriousness. She shook her head at me and said, "I'm not letting you die trying to bring me back, Inuyasha! Just forget about us, it's over, I'm dead, can't that give you enough courage to move on already?!"

I didn't want that between us and I grabbed her chin and tilted it until she was looking at me, "I will not move on until I get you and I won't let you talk me out of this, now tell me how to bring you back to life... Please?" I gave her my most intament look that always got her flustered and this time she flustered more then when she was alive and she started to studder, "I-i-i-inuyasha-Y-y-you-know-I-i-i-J-j-just-can't- let-you do it Inuyasha, I won't tell you, not even if you try to kiss me..." Just then, an idea popped into my head and I immediately took into action, "Well I'm just going to have to go get into trouble with anything and get dangerously hurt..."

At that moment, Kagome stepped in front of me and said, "No! You won't do that if I'm here! A-and if you don't stop what you're doing then I'll get Sango to stop you..." I sighed and said, "Um, Kagome, I see one problem with that... Sango doesn't know that you're, you know, *Dead* and if she finds out then it won't be pretty let's just put it at that..." That's when she went wide-eyed and look back at him and said, "Oh shit, how are we going to explain this to her?! None of them knows I'm *DEAD* and that is horrible enough! I…" She looked like she was ready to cry. Rushing to her side I tried to comfort her the best I could, smoothing her hair out and murmuring calm words.

"it's okay, Kagome... Everything will be okay, don't worry about telling Sango cause we will deal with that later when we talk to them..." I sighed, "But right now...What I want is to have you in my arms again and you are not letting me bring you back... Why?" Kagome looked at me and answered, "I knew the reaction that you would have had if I told you... I didn't want you to die because of something that couldn't be changed and I knew that I wasn't coming back..."
