General A/N: I felt compelled to write another K/A fic, but I wanted to try a short multi-chappie one. So, here it is. Special thanks to silrayne for creating the music video "Ookami Dust" and writing the fic "Second Best Isn't So Bad", the two things that inspired this. Lol, and thanks to Sorrowful Ayame (aka Lilz-san) for getting me hooked on this couple.
Title: Realization
Rating: PG-13
Coupling: Kouga/Ayame
Chapter Specific A/N: In this one, I wanted to write in Kouga's POV, third person. The idea just suddenly came to me first when I was re-reading "Second Best Isn't So Bad", but the full urge to write it came when watching "Ookami Dust." It's just a short little thing. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha; that belongs to Tamhasaki. I do not own "Ookami Dust" or "Second Best Isn't So Bad" (which inspired this fic, especially this chapter); that belongs to silrayne.
Realization
Chapter One: Unrequited Love
Kouga stood there dumbfounded as it hit him. It hit him harder than a ton of bricks to his head.
Kagome ran to the inukuro…She ran for the mutt. She didn't run to him.
Oh sure, he had lingering thoughts, but he didn't think it was true.
Now he did.
Kagome, his love, his…fiancée, was in love with that damn mutt! She was in love with that confounded hanyou!
How could she choose that dirty, filthy mongrel over him! Him, a proud ookami youkai! Him, leader of the Brown Pack! How could she toss him aside?
How could she…How could she break his heart like that?
It was then he finally knew that he had lost her without really having her at all. It was then he knew she would never love him. It was then he knew that the mutt had won. It was always right there in front of him…
He just now realized it.
