Carve your name into my skin, mark me as yours for eternity...

Those words were taken away by the wind that blew the night I was yours and only yours... I can still feel the ambrosia of your lips and your warm breath beating against my skin. I still feel your petal like touches on my flesh, delicately running down my body. I can still hear the sound of your voice echoing in the deepest corners of my soul so lovingly, just loud enough for me to hear… "I love you so much that it hurts…" Your soft lips met mine and attempted to transmit all those emotions that lived inside you… It wasn't enough. Your lips wandered elsewhere, trying to take in as much of me as you could, not knowing when you'd see me again, not knowing how long time was planning to keep us apart…

A female voice brings me back to reality.

"Kagome-chan," says Sango in a slight tone of worry.
"Huh?"
"You seem a bit...distant. Are you alright?"
"Yes, thanks Sango-chan," I say as I draw a reassuring smile to my semblant.

I look away and turn to observe the starry sky above me.

Kikyou...
