Disclaimer: I don't own any of the DVD's. But I do have most of the songs on my comp.

Thoughts of this fanfic: 'til I get over you or desperate (by Michelle Branch) is the chapter's song. This came into mind when I thought of how the song(s) so deeply resembles this chapter.

Kagome stood at the well waiting for the message to come. Something troubled her although she did not know what it was. Inuyasha had been acting strange. Why hadn't he answered when she sent that letter? Her heart ached and she realized why. But it still did not understand. Was it something she said? Was it something she did? The longer she waited, the less she would be able to speak to him. Since the message did not come she hopped into the portal to the fudal era.

She felt more sorrow as she walked to the campsite Inuyasha said they would be at. It wasn't far but the heaviness of her thoughts and her feelings made her go slower than usual. The beautiful day didn't cheer her up and the fragrence of fresh air did not clear her mind. Soon her eyes were starting to sting. She realized she was starting to cry but she let the tears pour from her eyes. Had Inuyasha really said that? If he did, did he mean it? Only he knew the answer to that question and she didn't have a clue.

She fell to her knees and put her face in her hands. The water fell through her hands. She could not support her own sadness. Her head pounded and she felt the pain get worse. But she couldn't help it. She could only see a blue, blurry picture. Although it took a long time, she stopped and let her vision get better and so the burning would stop. Once she could see, the sky had turned grey and cloudy and the wind picked up. It might rain to match her tears so that she would not have to express the pain herself. She got up and walked on. And as she got nearer, she realized it,... little by little, that she had become heartbroken.
