II. Chapter 2
Inuyasha's TRUE feelings
"Oh, you woke up!" Inuyasha said.
"Yeah…"Kagome said as she opened her eyes and looked around.
She was on a sunbed, near the pool with a wet Inuyasha standing right beside her.
"What happened?" Kagome asked.
"We felt in the pool…by mistake." Inuyasha said smiling.
"What do you mean by mistake?"
"Well…you pushed me somehow…"
"Oh sorry. I didn't want too…"Kagome said concern.
"It's all right. Let's go and have lunch. You didn't eat very well at breakfast and you look so weak…"
"All right!" Kagome said and followed him.
Then everything went more as a film: they went to the restaurant, ate and then they went to the room, where Kagome tired just fall asleep in the bed.
"Kagome, Kagome. Wake up!" Inuyasha said in a low voice.
"Did you say something?" Kagome asked as she woke up and yawned.
"You are sleeping for 3 hours and…"
"3 hours?!"Kagome shouted and jumped out of the bed. "I don't know what's going out with me, I'll be all ready in 10 minutes!"
Later, they went on the beach and had fun in the water and even made sand castles. Kagome was feeling awesome as she finally took a stone from her heart and released all her feeling although all she remembered was falling in the water while looking for Inuyasha. Speaking about him, he seemed a bit tensioned and concerned now…What happened?
It was almost evening when they decided to go back to their room when…
"Oh, this looks GORGEOUS!" Kagome said astonished as she saw the beautiful sunsets.
The sun was setting down right in the middle of the sea, making the water glow along with the soft sand from the beach. The sky was red and orange, pink and yellow and with its last force, its sun shines were covering everything in a warmly light.
"Everything looks FANTASTIC! Inuyasha, come and take a better look!" Kagome said happily as she picked his hand and took him near the sea.
Inuyasha dropped the bag with the things for the beach (towels, creams….) and followed her. For a few minutes they just stand and watch it…
Inuyasha left Kagome's hand and went back to the luggage. Kagome didn't move, too absorbed by the landscape. Upset by his careless, she put her hands around her arms and her memories came back…she remembered everything that happened at the pool and her tears suddenly prepared to come. He didn't love her…he never did and she was a foolish to think that he even cared about her…He was just a concerned friend, but it hurts so much…like a knife that it's pushed in an opened wound. "I love you stupid" Kagome though, but you are… "I should forget about him and be indifferent, but then, why does it hurt so much, so painful…so REAL?"
All of a sudden, when her tears almost fall on her cheeks, she saw a gold metal thing right in front of her eyes. But the thing flew and landed on her chest as she realized that it was a heart and more correctly, the heart was part of a necklace. She became still as she heard his voice:
"Stay still till I lock it." Inuyasha said as he was trying to put the necklace at her neck.
Kagome held her breath and felt happy.
"Ok, now it's ready. Do you like it?" Inuyasha asked smiling confident, but she saw that his voice was trembling.
Kagome took a look at the nice necklace which was now shining on her chest. It wasn't very big or small. It had a gold heart with an inscription on it. Kagome read it: "I will always LOVE you…FOREVER" and her heart started to beat.
"I know you can put a picture on it if you want…"Inuyasha said slowly, but enough to hear him then add: "If you want, you need the other heart which…"
"Which…?"Kagome asked as she turned around and looked at him.
She looked at him and realized that he was wearing an identical necklace.
"Which I have. They both together work as a key and so they open and as that women told me they only work together so you can open them only together and…"
"I understand this, but Inuyasha, tell me the TRUTH. Why?" Kagome asked as she looked at him with some bagging eyes.
"I…"Inuyasha said and blushed.
He may have defeated Naraku and a lot of demons, but his feelings for Kagome were probably the scariest thing he had ever had to deal with as he never knew how to do. Of course there were times when he was uncertain by her feelings because she usually lost her temper on him, but after everything happened this day, even he understood a very important thing: Kagome loves him. She showed it, told it, but he just couldn't do the same…Inuyasha wanted to go away, but Kagome gather his hands, making him turn and watch her straight.
"Not this time, it's just YOU and ME, so tell me!" Kagome said.
"I…"
"You…"
"I…"
"You…"
"Just don't know how to tell you…"
"Tell me…"
"That…"
"That…"
"I don't…!" Inuyasha said blushing
"You don't know if you LOVE ME?" Kagome asked with tears in her eyes.
"No dummy, I don't know how to PROPOSE you!"
And time frozen…Kagome lost her breath, Inuyasha his voice and they just get closer till their faces were so close that they could see their blush from the checks while there lips met in a tender kiss.
