Back at the house

"Come on Inuyasha, come out already I gotta see if it fits." Kagome whined at the bathroom door.

"Are you kidding me? I look like a fool in this." Inuyasha retorted.

"I don't care! Now damnit I bought it so you're gonna come out now or face the consequences!" she said.

"Like what?" the voice shot back from the other side of the door.

"SIT!"

THUD

"Now I definitely aint coming out wench!" he yelled. He knew he didn't have to keep quiet if no one but them were in the house.

"Come out now!" she yelled back.

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No"

"Yes"

This went on for several minutes before Inuyasha was 'Sat' again to which he replied with a whimper in his voice, "Fine, but on one condition…"

"What?" Kagome inquired.

"Say you love me." He nervously stated.

There was silence for a few moments until a quiet cry came from the door.

"I knew it, no one could ever love a pitiful half-breed like me!" after saying this he didn't just cry but broke into a loud uncontrollable sob.

"No…" Kagome whispered but he couldn't hear her over his own wailings.

"I never should have fallen in love if this was how I was going to feel! If I was a full demon you'd love me, but no, I'm a god damn hanyou!" saying this he pounded his fists into the floor causing blood to drip from his palms.

"Inuyasha I do love you! If you were a demon you would be worse, you could try to hurt me." Kagome tried to plead with him but he wouldn't listen.

"Don't lie wench!" his tone getting angrier now. "As soon as we gathered the jewel you were going to seal up the well for good trying to get away from me. You hate me and you know it!"

"INUYASHA!"

He started to quiet down to a mere whimper as he tried to listen to her.

"Inuyasha, you may not think anyone is capable of loving a half-demon, but you're wrong because I do." She said lovingly.

The door creaked open just enough for her to see a water stained amber eye staring at her.

"K-K-Kagome" he thrust open the door and hugged her. He began to cry again, but this time tears of joy.

"I'm sorry, but I've held in my emotions for years and just couldn't anymore."

Kagome was almost afraid, Inuyasha usually held her as she cried, not the other way around. But she could see why he loved doing it, consoling him made her feel so good inside.

"I love you too Inuyasha"

"Thanks"
