Flashback

Kagome and Inuyasha were in college when Kagome proposed Inuyasha .

Inuyasha,"Kagome, I understand your feelings but there is nothing I can do for you."

"I…..I love somebody else". On uttering these words, Kagome's ears felt numb, her heart beat suddenly fastened at an abrupt level and the world seemed to move round and round her head. She asked meekly,"Who is it?"

"Kikyo", Inuyasha muttered.

A smile appeared on Kagome's face as she took control of herself.

She said,"It's a good thing that you feel the same way as I do even if it is for another person but I am happy for you."

Inuyasha's eyes propped out of his socket as he heard these words, he said," Just after the final exams this month I will be leaving for Australia. She will meet me there and there , we will discuss our marriage."

Kagome's heart skipped a beat as these words entered her mind and she said,"So this is the last month I am seeing you".

Inuyasha's eyes softened,"Kagome, I don't know what to say, it went so fast. And….and Kikiyo wanted us to be together as soon as we can. I am really sorry , Kgome we have always been such good friends, I don't know why did you feel for me this way but for me you will always be my special friend."

Kagome's moist eyes glistened with appreciation as she said," It's okay, Inuyasha you don't have to console me. Its okay if you love somebody else and I am totally fine with it. I would want to be with someone who will lovw me and gradually I will learn to love that person so you don't worry about me, I will fine by mys…."Kagome couldn't complete her sentences when she bursted into tears. She ran away from there. She could hear Inuyasha calling out to her, but she wouldn't listen to him, couldn't listen to him.

That night she went to Kouga's place and wept to him like a child. He was her best friend and she confided everything to him. Kouga held her to him and wrapped his arms on the weeping body. No matter what he would say it would refrain Kagome from crying and she wept till her eyes soared with pain and her breath became uncomfortable.

Kouga whispered,"Kagome, I promise you , I will keep you happy…"

End of flashback

A year later under the shed of a sakura tree, two lovers sat smiling and speaking to each other in delightful whispers. Kagome sat with her back against the tree with Kouga looking at his beloved with his head on her tiny lap. He said after a while," Are you happy with me Kagome?"

Kagome looked down to the man , who has vowed to be by her side for eternity and said,"Of course I am, Kouga . What makes you ask that?". She asked that with a twinkle in her eyes.

Kouga got up and sat beside her comfortably swopping his arm around her waist said,"I know how much you loved him and it was really hard for you to forget him."

Kagome took his strong hand and gently squeezed it remembering all the memories of the period after Inuyasha left. She would spent her days alone all by herself and crying all the time. At that moment Kouga was by her all the time, giving her mental support and being with her. It was a tough period for her and Kouga never left her alone. Now Kouga is working as an executive of a company and Kagome as owns a flower shop. They are happy together.

Kouga asked," Kagome, why don't we spend the weekend night at my place?".

Kagome blushed as she knew what he meant, Kouga loved her and he wanted to express it physically. He never forced her into anything for his own pleasure but Kgome knew that this was becoming a debt for her and she would soon need to return his feelings . She pushed her self towards him taking in more of his body heat and said, "Kouga , I don't feel like doing it now."

Kouga relaxed at her touch but soon a sadness spread over him as he heard her answer.

She changed the topic and asked,"When are you going to Madrid."

Kouga replied without looking into her eyes, feeling a little disappointed at her answer,"Next week , Thursday . "

Kagome realizing that Kouga didn't feel good about her answer, forced herself to say," Then why don't we spend the next week weekend your place. We could see some movie and then you know…."

Kouga shifted his eyes towards ger and looked deep down at her wondering whether she will be fine with it,"Are you sure."

Kagome wrapping her self around Kouga said,"Very much."

Kouga relaxed at her touch and pulled her closer. Kagome looked at him an anticipating of hat was going to happen widened her mouth and Kouga kissed hered, ripe lips making them move with rhythm. Kagome tried to kiss back too but her body wouldn't listen to her. Her mind was with Kouga but she wanted to be with Inuyasha. Kouga unaware of this continued to kiss her until his tongue tasted her and then he pulled back realizing that Kagome needed air. Kouga and Kagome had shared many kisses together and many of them being passionate, but Kagome never had the heart to share it with him but the feeling of his support with her made her return his feelings for her and she did what her mind told her to do and not what her heart wanted.

Evening rays had fallen and Kagome was returning with Kouga to her house when the doorstep of her house appeared . Kouga 's arm left her waist and Kagome stood infront of him , she said," I had a wonderful afternoon Kouga , thanks."

Kouga smirked a naughty grin and said,"I don't take my thank you that way," and he gently grabbed Kagome by her arms and placed a small kiss on her sweet lips. Kagome at first was startled by his action but then she relaxed enough to return him the kiss.

Kouga turned and said," Good night, Kagome."

Kagome waved her hand and smiled back.

Unaware to both them a young man with long silver hair had been watching them with fury and anger, his temper rising high each time Kouga touched her.
