Okay so I am trying my hand at one of my favorite couples in the whole world, I needed a break from Kuroshitsuji. The chapters are going to be in the middle in length and they are going to be strong in emotion. I hope I portray how I feel for the characters.
On with the story, by the way, I love all of my reviewers and the ones who favorite my fanfics. I will give you special mention when I can, because every one of you deserves it.

Loving someone is one thing, being loved is another. Though, being loved by the person you love, that is just about everything. - Written by Isabela, borrowing for the story.

Disclaimer- I own none of the original characters, nor do I have any ownership over Inuyasha the series.
Warnings- This is Yaoi, I do not know how much more I have to stress this. If you do not like it, don't read it; simple. This is Inucest in it's more complicated form.

The last several days have left me restless, I reread over the parchment more times that I could count and came to the same conclusion every time I read it. The blended mutt needs to be watched over as he come of age. I have known that for a long time I didn't need the council to tell me that. Least of all did they need to demand it of me.
I felt cold as the rage swept through me, how can his friends treat him with such blatant disregard; do they not realize he is different in some way? That there is something wrong, perhaps it is time to step in, or I can observe for a while longer. I am in no hurry after all, though I know something is wrong he cannot sense me at all.
He sat off to the side with his feet dangling in the water, as his hair became swept up in the breeze. He has grown quite a bit since I last saw him, the roundness of his face has evened out a bit and he has become quite beautiful in his own way. As a half blooded being he never has been bad on the eyes.
"Why do I keep trying to hide, they will probably find out soon, or Kouga will show up." My ears perked up at the sound of his voice, is he talking about Prince Kouga of the South, what would he want? "I need to relax, if they don't know me not being able to relax certainly ain't gonna help my case any." I bristled at his misusage of his words, and to think he used to be so eloquent and well spoken.
"Inuyasha, what is the matter with you; why won't you talk to any of us?" That girl, child that forces him to the ground whenever she gets caught in a temper; what in the world could she want with my baby brother.
"Honestly Kagome, there is nothing to talk about and I wish you would just leave me alone; there is nothing that can be done about it anyways." His defeated sigh made me wonder, too what could be on his mid that troubled him so much. Not that I truly care or anything of the like.
"If you tell me maybe I can help you solve it, honestly, you remind my of my friend Ayume who found out she likes a guy who is gay. Wait I think the term is homosexual here." Is that it, does he prefer a woman who will never like him; or perhaps is it that he prefers a woman when it is he who actually prefers men. Is Inuyasha in a identity Crisis, is there anything I can even do to fix something like that?
"It is kind of like that, he could never like me; it is simple. Maybe I am destined to be alone after all." I felt the need to walk forward and wrap him in my pelt, comforting him as I would a small pup. I refrained from such actions hoping to catch more of what will be said before I make such an appearance, the last thing I need is to scare him away because my instincts got the best of me.
"Inuyasha I want to tell you what my mom told me a long time ago when I first started dating. If you deny your feelings because rejection is too hard to deal with, you will start to tell lies; because you are afraid. You are only afraid of what you do not know, of what others will think; what will be found out about you. Every time you lie your fear gets stronger, do yourself a favor; do not lie to yourself or others. Take the risk and make the jump to tell the one how you feel. No matter the consequences, though you fear what you do not know; you will regret what you have never tried to obtain." I have to agree with the girl's mother, this knowledge is great for anyone to have; myself included will benefit should I brave the storm.
"Kagome, you are a wonderful friend; though I can't even tell you who I care for as a mate you always seem to understand. I even have these dreams that connect me, my inner demon telling me who my soul mate is. Or at least I think that is what they mean, I don't really know; I wish I had someone around who could explain this all to me." I blinked slowly, in retrospect, even I have not had dreams of confirmation. Why is he so afraid to attach himself to his future mate, beta's are often looked after very closely by their alphas. His mate would never allow anything bad to happen to him.
"Inuyasha it is really okay if you don't tell me, I just want you to know that I support you; at least now I know that you aren't after me and we can be friends." The way they sat side by side put my inner demon at edge and I wanted nothing more than to rip her limb from limb. That is when I realized exactly what I was doing, I am hiding in the bushes like a pup from it's parents. This is highly unacceptable of someone of my stature.
I stood and turned away just in time to hear Inuyasha say, "sometimes I wish I was a lord or a real prince; not some half blood. That way he could see me as I am not as I ain't. It's not fair and it pisses me off to think that he has me snivelling like some pup tugging on my mother's apron. He will always get away with it, because I will always let him; dammit Kagome I love the bastard." I crouched back down wanting to hear her response without being spotted.
"It almost sounds like you know how the person will react and therefore don't want to give it a chance, this person almost sounds like Lord Sesshoumaru; is this person a royal? Is that why you are so afraid to say anything, because there is so much more at stake than just loving someone?" What a perspective little thing this girl is, perhaps their is hope in the future for her yet.
"Kagome just drop it, it will never happen and I ain't gonna tell you who it is so just leave it alone. I just want some peace and quiet before the storm hits. I guess I can answer your question, yeah he is royalty I guess; Demonic Royalty and in no way am I good enough."
I fled to my castle at speeds I haven't used since my turning to adulthood. "How can he have such little opinion of himself, did I do this to him?" I can feel the coldness seeping in at that thought, "It probably is my fault, I have always pushed that pure bloods are better; but he is our father's son as such he has strong demonic blood, the other demons don't stand a chance to him. No one deserves him, not the other way around, foolish half-breed."
I need to tend to Rin and Au-Un, as they will be joining me when I become a part of his pack. I can only hope he will accept the offer of extra protection for them. I suppose he does not need to know the true reason why I am there, as it will only create strain and conflict; both of which I am hoping to avoid. "Rin, Bring Au-Uh, we are going to be joining forces with the half-breed and his comrades."
Her grin was all I needed to see to know that she was already ready for travel. "Yes mi'lord."
"What about me Mil'lord." I scowled at the green demon screeched hurting my sensitive ears.
"You are to stay here and watch over the castle, should anything happen to it while I am gone; your life will be forfeit." With that I swept gracefully out of the courtyard Rin and Ah-Un in tow as we took to the sky. I wonder what the groups reactions will be to my presence, his reaction to me will determine how I will approach him in the future.

Okay that is the end of the first chapter, I hope I did well. I know he is a bit OOC, but if you look it is only in his head. When he speaks to others it comes out cold and heartless sounding. I have a theory for it, I think he is cold to others because he does not know how to communicate properly, like he doesn't know how to get his thoughts in words out properly. So that is how I am going to write the story, he will treat others terribly, until he developes over time.
Please tell me what you think. I will post another chapter today, or tomorrow.
I love all of my valued readers.
