Please Don't Leave Me
Chapter 1: Pain
Okay this is just something I was working on at my grandma's when there wasn't anything else to do. I hope you like it!
Oh, by the way... I OWN NOTHING. Thank you. :3
She was whimpering in her sleep and he didn't know what to do. She was starting to thrash and moan. Her body was warm and flush with fever. He really didn't know what to do. He grabbed the little square cloth from her backpack and dunked it into the cool water in the bowl he had near. He set it on her forehead like she had done for him for years and she calmed down and panted laboriously.
He was suddenly even more thankful he had found the hut. It was pitch black outside; even he was having trouble seeing into the outside world. He had made a make shift futon for Kagome and collected water from a near by stream. But it was raining hard now...really hard. He didn't like rainy nights... they remind him of the nights... his mother died.
"Inuyasha…" she whimpered rolling on her side facing him. Inuyasha looked at her, startled out of his trip down a memory lane from hell, and brushed her hair out of her face. She whimpered again, trusting her face into his hand. "Inuyasha please don't leave me," she begged hoarsely. "Please."
"I'm right here Kagome. I ain't goin' nowhere. Not until your better." He could smell the putrid smell of illness on her and it pained him. He hated it when she was in pain and he couldn't do anything for her. There was no demon or monster to slay. She was starting to cry. He wrinkled his nose at the salt mixed with the unpleasant smell of her ill.
She thrashed around and, unsure of what else he could do, Inuyasha held her as still as possible knowing that the more she moved or was moved around the faster the poison would spread. She still tried to trash but tears started to appear she started to sob. He was at a loss; he had to hold her down so she didn't accidentally scratch herself or something, but everything in him wanted to wipe away her tears and make her smile and laugh again... All of a sudden her sobs stopped; the thrashing ceased; the tears held back.
"Inuyasha… I won't stop you…" her face screwed and she started to shake violently, like she was going to fly a part at any moment. "I won't stop you from… going to her. I'll never be as good as her. I'll never have that power… I'll never have her beauty... I'll never be as smart as her... I'll never be…good enough to be... with you," She sounded like she was being choked as she said those words.
Did she really think that she wasn't good enough for him? Had he left her so often he didn't even have a chance to tell her how he felt? Not that he could ever deserve her. He was just a half-breed after all. A worthless Hanyou, who couldn't even protect one person. Couldn't protect his mother, Kikyou or her or even his own mother. He was the whole reason she had been poisoned. If he hadn't of run off then that snake demon would never have had that opening to attack her. He'd have been close enough to sense it and Kagome wouldn't be in so much pain now. He really was a useless hanyou. He picked her up and held her to him tightly.
"Inuyasha?"
BTW...
Hanyou: half-demon
It's short I know. Sorry. Please reveiw. Just to let ya'll know, I have no idea where this is going... :)
