Shame On You , Shame On Me, Forget Me Not
~ Chapter Two ~
Sweet Lies
By Inuyashas Youkai
Days had passed before Kagome had made her appearance , and fortunately neither Kouga or Kikyo were present , but unfortunately for her everyone else when she had were looking at her expectantly , and that of course included the said hanyou , one of which the bastard wolf had too mention. Although besides granting them a slight smile in acknowledgement , Kagome didn't say much of anything , and at the time , none had made a move to bring up what had occured not long ago, which for the moment she was grateful for. That is until a perverted monk had to let his damn mouth dirty the conversation with his perverted thoughts regarding to what happened the other day , one sentence that surely got him three whacks to the head simultaneously .
"So, it seems as though our wolf friend has stepped it up a notch in gaining one into his bed hm?"
Indeed, Sango's Inuyasha's and Kagome's fist had forced down hard upon his skull, knocking Miroku unconscious.
Then it was the hanyou that voiced his comments towards what had happened to cause a uproar just days before..
" Does that shit happen every time I leave ?"
It was Sango who answered for Kagome this time , because all of a sudden the conversation became all to uncomfortable , and the words she would say would be lies to protect from hearing the hanyou's antics.
" Inuyasha , yes every time .. Although I am rather surprised that this time he would have the gall to force you to kiss him, Kagome.."
"Yeah , well .. I wouldn't expect that he would give up that easily .."
"Kagome , um may I speak to you a moment alone ..?"Inuyasha muttered
" Inuyasha , if this is about what was said , don't worry about it , okay ? Just leave it be ... I only said what I had to get him off my back.."
" Sango , will you excuse us please..? Come on Kagome, I need to speak with you.."
"Sure , have fun guys..."
Inuyasha pulled Kagome, unwillingly, towards the edge of the forest just out of listening range , before the following words were muttered.
" Kagome , what you said back there , was it true ? Did you ...?"
" You can't leave things alone can you !"
" Not till I get an answer from you, Kagome do you feel anything for me ?"
"Why does it matter , Inuyasha ?"
"Will you just answer that damn question Kagome?"
" I used to ... You happy now? Yes, at one time I loved you .."
"You mean you .. You don't anymore?"
" I still do , but not the way , as I once had ..."
"Do you feel anything for Kouga ?"
"You didn't hear me back there ? No , its never been like that ..."
"May I ask one thing of you, since that's the case?"
"What's that, depends ?"
"Be my reason to stay"
"What do you mean ?"
" I need a way out of having to go to hell with Kikyo, and I was wondering, since neither of us have anyone will you, for appearances sake will you be the reason?"
"Who says I don't ?"
"Don't what ?"
"Have anyone ?"
"Do you ?"
"No .. Just saying "
"Well then , Will you ?"
"Will I what ?"
"Will you be my pretend mate ?"
Wha-What !" Kagome sputtered
"You heard me ? Don't make me repeat myself ? When I made that promise , Kikyo had me under one of those spells of her's , and now she won't let me out of it .. Since my fighting skills are better with you by my side, well it only is obvious that having you by my side in their eyes , as a mate would help me fight her .. So will you be the reason, will you be my distraction?"
" Still Why Me?"
"Why not you ? Your my best friend , and well it would help both of us . You with Kouga , and me from having to follow the bitch to hell .."
"But , I thought .."
" You thought it was what I wanted , and that I loved Kikyo.. Yes I do , and at one point I did want that , but I realized that that wench isn't the one I loved back then ..and who isn't the one I love now.. At least not like that , enough to kill myself ..
"Then who?"
"I really don't have anyone , kinda like you ...So whaddya say ?"
"I don't know Inuyasha .. I have a feeling that this idea might come back into our faces , what if something happens or that we find someone else.."
" Doubtful , but if so , then we'll already be mated right ? So if something does happen then our appearances will just become truth, and I'll be more protection for you in the long run anyway , with you marked as a mate. If we do find another , well than my mark on you will dissipate because I will allow it ..."
"What do I have to do ..?"
" So is it a yes ?"
" Depends , what do I have to do ?"
"Let me mark you as my mate ..."
"That's it?"
"For now , yes.."
"I'll think about it .."
