Dear Dad

June 19th

Happy fathers day to all the dads around the world…

Dear papa,

' I just want to let you know that you mean the world to me,

You've been there for me throughout my life,

You've guided me,

You have protected me, loved me, and been by my side,

You cherish your loved ones,

You put the needs of your family before your own,

Family means the world to you,

And you mean the world to us,

You may not be perfect,

But, I couldn't ask for a better father than you,

I LOVE YOU DAD'

Dedicated to my Dad

Thank you for all that you've done for me.

Disclamer: I do not own inuyasha

I hope you like it.

The scent of roses coated the air as the petals danced in the breeze. I knelt on the cool, wet grass, my eyes closed in silent prayer. My heart aches as I kneel before you, but the pain is but a memory now. Opening my closed eyelids, my chocolate brown eyes fall on the engraved stone. A small smile on my face.

"Hi daddy, it's been a while since I came to visit. You wouldn't believe what happened this past year." I sat in front of his grave bringing my knees to my chest.

" I met someone, he's shippo's instructor . The first time I met him he was so rude, called me a bitch, well I ofcourse let him have it. He's rude, says what he thinks and so clueless sometimes,…but he's also so sweet, and thoughtfull, he's dependable when the situation calls, and he has the most adorable ears." the wind blew her haid over her shoulder, the sakura petals landing on her dark tresses.

I smiled thinking back on the times we spent together, "After that we spent a lot of time together, shippo loves him, he can't stop talking about him, even mama, souta and grampa love him like family. Though gramps still trys to exorcise him with those useless ofudas, but I know he cars for him too. You'd like him too papa. He may be rough around the edges, but he's sweet in his own way."

Kagome smiled sadly, "His parents passed away when he was young, he hand an older half brother, they may fight a lot but their always there for one another. He was married in the past, but sadly his wife died in an accident. He's bean hurting ever since. I want to help him daddy, I want to make him happy, I want to make him smile"

She placed the roses in front of the grave " I… I like him too daddy, he said he'd always protect me" her voice was soft.

"When ever I'm with him my heart seems to beat a mile, I care for him. But I'm scared daddy, I know he won't hurt me." I close my eyes inhaling the fresh air scented with flowers, " I…I Love him papa. I love him so much, that it hurts to be away from him for too long. I know he cares for me as well. Papa should I tell him how much he means to me? Please I don't know what to do, if he dosen't… then I don't think I can.." I gasp as tears stream down my cheeks.

The wind picked up, the trees branches danced, she suddenly felt a warm presence next to her, turning around there was no one there, but she could feel the warmth, the rose she had laid in front of the grave rolled to her feet, the wind still blowing strongly.

"Papa?" she picked up the rose , touching it's soft petals. The rose in all it's beauty still had thorns. She smiled, she no longer held any doubt in her heart. One can't appreciate the full beauty of the rose, without it's thorns. The warms slowly faded away, leaving the place in peaceful silence. She picked up the rose and knelt before the grave, placing a kiss on it's stone surface. "Thank you papa"

She then remembered something. "Papa , his name is Inuyasha" kagome smiled and said another prayer and began walking back home. She turned back and whispered softly to the wind knowing he would hear her "I Love you papa" she felt the breeze kiss her cheeks in a soft reply.

She walked back to her home, to the future that was waiting for her.

There . I hope you like it. Please read and review.
