Hello Again Sweetheart, Baby ,I think I Love You

Chapter One I Never Thought

By Inuyashas Youkai

The moon shone brightly ,highlighting the shadows within the Higarashi Shrine .The house within the shrine was darkened shrouded by nightfall, except for one showered in pink ruffles, illuminated by finally was graduation for the girl whom resided inside,and knew she should be asleep ,though for the life of her she could not .Something within her didn't feel right ,not that it had since the day she was taken from them,from him. For some reason ,this time something was different ,she couldn't put on her finger though. She just had this massive overgrown urge to go to the old Bone Eaters girl now laying on her bed,shook her head from side to side with a sigh , passing her thought off as wishful thinking. It's been three years ,since that day ,she last saw her family of the past. Ever since that day , She has been somewhat at a loss , not really living,just going through the motions.

Kagome did what was expected of her in this life without her heart ,being that was left behind her with the family she was forced to leave behind ,so long ago. Unnoticed to the raven haired girl ,tears trailed down her cheeks while lost in memories of that day deeply hidden ,tucked away till the dusk of nightfall shown its way through the darkened clouds,peaking out as the pale moon saying hello in place of the farewell sun. This time it was the only time she would let these images emerge as she remembers it clearly . The Day she was forced away from her family of the day started great, the pleasant mood was embedded in everything around them even the birds and the trees were playing their own blissful melody . They had been led to a village nearby ,that had reported sightings of demons and rumors of shards of the jewel. The village had been reduced to shambles , only a few huts remained , crowded with the only remaining inhabitants of the village. The threat had left without finishing what it had intended to do .It was almost like it had been distracted or had been drawn to something greater than his never found out what that was ,just helped then with food and supplies to help them whilerebuild . With no leads to further travel on , they went back to Kaede's hut to reload on supplies.

Once they had gotten their they were greeted by someone they had'nt expected or to some wasn't had come surprisingly out of nowhere when normally Inuyasha had kept their unknown visits and possible trysts in secret . Well at least to everyone else but to Kagome knew , she just couldn't bear to watch anymore after the last time. In fact she withdrew from theidea of anything more than a friendship to her hanyou .Unhappily she had given up ,though she found in that respect of her sacrifice allowed her tohappily enjoy the bonds of her family of the past. Mostly she spent time with Shippo ,Miroku ,and Sango ,with the occasional Kouga when Inuyasha wasn't in sight. Although that's not to say that she didn't see Inuyasha, Kagome did spend some time with him but that time was quickly interrupted by this thing or the other thing, which the hanyous frustration no matter how hidden,and could be seen in his eyes for some reason. Inuyasha though never spoke his thoughts aloud ,mostly he kept things like that sort quite, for reasons unknown.

Inuyasha was definitely in deep thought most of the time with his mind rummaging through everything he seemed to store in had just back from her time of a three day absence from the fuedal era to replenish their neccessities for the upcoming trips ahead , with no surprising interuptions from soon after called Sango and Shippo over towards a pathway leading to some unknown leaving Miroku was left with Inuyasha, so he decided to try to trick the hanyouin thinking he was headed towards the village but then detoured to spy on the girls, not that it seemed to bother him as of late before today ,but for some reasons unknown he had a different look about had wondered where the crazy monk had went to since he had decided to follow him , his behavior had been somewhat odd with the mischievous glint to his eye. He most times tried not to pry into what people in the group were doing ,but for some reason he felt theneed to intervine ,so he sniffed he out , following the trail of Miroku's scent. Where he found him wasn't what shocked him it was whom he was spying on that angered him , he just felt hegot the hint the last time I had warned him about being a pervert around her

. ..Kagome. Though...Though that was before the situation with Kikyo broke out .'Miroku..I am going to pound himwhen I catch up with him later , or maybe I will just enjoy it .I don't get much time with her as it is. So in that he continued to watch Kagome as she continued going thru her little show, I guessing her travel back home she brought back some music from her time so Shippo , Kagome and Sango were singing and dancing to it . 'I wonder how long has this been happening, Have I been so out of touch with everyone because of Kikyo 's demands on me?' Sniffing the air to be sure as the scent of wolf wafted towards my nose .

'Shit , don't tell me the wolf has taken advantage of the situation and move in on her ,while I am otherwise preoccupied. ' I ll show him just watch.

Nobody moves in to take away whats mine '.

Out of nowhere two things happened the first Inuyasha decided to nonchalantly wander in on their little party. The groups inhabitants were shocked when Inuyasha broke into the scene with a couple of flowers he grabbed along the way ,to give to Kagome. Kagome stood in her yellow kimono essentuated with cheery blossoms ,in her surprise of his actions toward her ,her cheekbones soon burned with the same crimson identical to the cherry blossoms. She grew speechless towards the gesture and the knowledge that he was watching her, though she nodded her thanks because she temporarily lost her voice. Inuyasha furthered her embarrassing torment as he was passing her by, he pulled her to his side in a side embrace , while whispering in her ear so only she could hear.

" Don't forget me Kagome ,Cause I remember you ,I will be coming to get you in time "Inuyasha whispered, then proceeded with a little nip of her ear as he passed, sending goosebumps down her frame,then passed through the hanyou.

If Kagome had noticed the face of Inuyasha as he left he was wearing a smirk combined with a blush of his next thing that happened was Kouga making his claim on the young priestess. Though kagome ,with all the attention being on her , she wanted to get away . So she ran with tears running down her cheeks towards a nearbye cove ,with her friends all calling after her. "Kagome!" Though they didn't have yo worry unbeknownst to all Inuyasha didn't exactly leave the scence ,not exactly . The hanyou decided to catch up to her , matching her speed, then pulling her inside the grasp of his arms, then tight against his chest in mid flight. The hanyou against everything he was expected to do, carried her among the branches taking Kagome to a hidden spot within the tree tops. Once they landed up with a high branch ,he settled her on it close to first he didn't speak ,knowing that his boldness shocked her, then because she wasn't going to he broke the ice.

"What were you running from,you nearly scared me when I felt the fear tainting your scent?"Inuyasha whispered.

Taking a deep breath she turned her gaze towards the now blushing Hanyou, with eyes full of shock, hesitataion,and love, slowly overtaken by the slow tears runnning down her cheek.

"It was nothing Inuyasha , just needed a minute to myself, but thankyou for your concern. " Kagome soothed then hestantly continued.

"What got into you all of a sudden back there huh, do you personaly like teasing me only to torment me later ,do you like seeing me in pain?" Kagome yelled.

" Kagome no , to both I am just so tired of sitting here, being kept from everyone and removed from being around you! Inuyasha yelled

Inuyasha paused ,taking a deep breath and spoke again softly. "Do you realize how much it hurts Kagome, how much it kills me to watch you from the outside, because of this duty that I carrry from the past,literally bitting me on the ass!"

" Inuyasha what are you saying ?"Kagome questioned .

Now with Kagome leaning againgst the trunk of the tree ,grabbing the branch to balance herself ,she returned her attentions to Inuyasha, for an answer to the questions she didn't feel like answering that question for the demon within him overwhelmed him , encouraging him to show it to her :as to what was hidden in his heart. Moments passed as his hands had found hers sneakily. He rose her hands ,then pinning hers against the trunk above her head with one of his ,his other hand stroked the side of her cheek ,cupping her chin so she could face him.

"Kagome , I love you, I can't keep it from you anymore", then Inuyasha slammed his lips to capture hers.

Unfortunately , their passionate scene didn't go unnoticed because it wasn't only Inuyasha that had followed the young priestess. For Kikyo's eyes gazed upon the picture laid out in front of her in anger and disgust. Kikyo brought up her bow and aimed the arrow at the tree branch the were so comfortably cozying up onto. Kikyo let her arrow fly and shortly after the branch buckled letting go , releasing the couple that now fell down unexpectedly. The Hanyou backflipped ,grabbing Kagome in midflight ,then softly landing . He looked at Kikyo with a snare,seething through his teeth while he spoke.

"Kikyo what the fuck are you trying to do kill us?" Inuyasha spat .

"Not you Inuyasha, her. " Kikyo yelled back. "I want her gone from here now ,I don't care if I have to kill her ,just to do it!"

"Over. My . Dead . Body. Kikyo!" Inuyasha seethed .

While Kagome watched ,it seemed like they were into the argument they were in so she supposed an escape ,but before she did ,She let a bow soar towards the area they were fighting to distract them and ran.

' What the hell is going on?' Was Kagome's last thought as she ran.
