Secret Friends
Chapter One
The Pain
Kagome ran away from the scene she just saw.
She saw Kikyo and Inuyasha together.
Her vision was blurred by her tears and while running, Kagome bumped into someone. She fell on the ground and looked up. It was Bankotsu. She got on her knees and hugged Bankotsu's. Bankotsu got down to Kagome's level and hugged her back. Bankotsu realized she was asleep after stopped crying. He waited until she would get up to ask her what happened.
It was the middle of the night when she woke up.
"...Why were you crying," Bankotsu asked her.
Kagome looked at him before answering.
"I just saw Inuyasha with Kikyo." Then she began explaining the whole story of Inuyasha and Kikyo, and even the part of her being from a different time. She was surprised he was such a good listener. "Its just so hard for me to see them together," Kagome finished. "That's why I feel so much pain. You probably think I'm weak," Kagome said while looking down.
"You're not weak," Bankotsu nearly screamed. Kagome looked up and stared at him hard. It was her time to listen. "These are only normal feelings that anyone could have. And it does not make you weak. I know. I know because I have been through this not long ago. It is hard to loose someone you love. I've lost my brothers," Bankotsu said while clenching his fists.
Kagome looked at him with sympathy.
