Suddenly Kagome woke up in a cold sweat. She sat up in her sleeping bag and looked around. Everyone was sitting around her with worry etched in every line of their faces. "Kagome!!" Shippo yelled, jumping into her arms. "Hi, Shippo, everyone…what's wrong?" But right at that exact moment, Kagome heard a stir next to her and InuYasha's head popped up. Shippo jumped into his arms crying, "InuYasha!!" "eh, what do you want?" he asked rather rudely to the kit. "InuYasha, Kagome for the entire night you two were screaming, running high fevers, and having spasms." Kaede said. "We were so worried!" Sango exclaimed, "Are you two ok?" Miroku asked. Shippo jumped back into Kagome's arms and made himself comfortable. "Well, last night I had a dream…" she trailed off, shuddering, "It was horrible." InuYasha didn't speak. Sango spoke up, "What happened?" Kagome looked over at Sango and smiled, "I'm not going to tell you, but to say the least, my worst nightmare was alive in my dream…" InuYasha looked up, "Same here, but that's all…" Kaede suddenly sat up straighter, "That's it! The curse of the living nightmare! Naraku must have cursed you… The only way to break it is if the bond between the two people cursed is especially strong… InuYasha, was Kikyo in your dream?" InuYasha was taken aback, "Yes…she was…" Kaede then looked at Kagome, who was a little crestfallen, and whispered, "Did the one you love most, die, Kagome?" Kagome looked up and calmly said, "Yes." "Ok then, InuYasha Naraku was testing your loyalty, the loyalty to the one you love, you could have chosen either but in order to break the curse you had to be loyal to the one that was truly in your heart. Kagome, Naraku was testing your strength. He wanted to see if he could break you, but you stayed strong and loyal to the one you love and broke the curse…you did not leave the side of the dead InuYasha did you?" Kaede explained. InuYasha sat up quickly. "No, I didn't leave his side, though yes, Naraku did almost break me…" InuYasha had scooted closer to Kagome, his eyes downcast. Kaede saw this and got up, "Sango, Miroku, Shippo, I need some help to gather some herbs, please come." She then exited the hut and went out side. The others got up and left, Kirara following her master, and Miroku not far behind. Shippo looked up at his 'mother' and said, "You sure your alright?" Kagome looked down at the kit, whom she adored as a son and replied, "Yes, don't worry about me, I'm fine." She smiled and Shippo nodded at InuYasha and ran outside.
"InuYasha, I" Kagome started, but soon found his arms around her, "Kagome, I love you, adore you, and only you. When Kikyo came I still chose only you, please never leave my side again!" InuYasha said. Kagome looked up and smiled, "Every time you looked at me Inuyasha, I felt happy, I knew for that short amount of time, I was all you could see. Yes, I know that was selfish, but that's what I thought. When you died in my dream, a part of me died, no, all of me died. I couldn't think or feel. In fact all I could see was you, and all I could feel was pain. I longed for your embrace, for your eyes to look at me. I would have sacrificed myself so you could have lived." She was silently crying now into his haori which see was fingering lovingly. "Kagome, whenever I saw you, I wanted to look and stare forever. But I was a half breed…not worthy to even lick the dirt off your shoes. But when I saw you dead my world caught on fire, it hurt, I had never felt pain like this. I would have done anything to save you…I even tried kissing you. But nothing worked. I wasn't strong enough to bring you back, and I knew if I could, I was not worthy enough to claim you…" Kagome looked up at him and flicked his head, "You baka! I never thought I was worthy enough for you, I'm not pretty like Kikyo, nor as strong, and," she said more quietly, "I tried kissing you too…" she had started to blush. "Kagome…" InuYasha said affectionately. She looked up and suddenly his lips were on hers in a tender embrace. It was sweet, and both flushed. When they both pulled away InuYasha looked at her seriously, "Kagome, it has taken awhile, but I know who is truly in my heart…and that is you. I know this is quick, but after we defeat Naraku, will you please, be my mate, and let me claim you?" Kagome looked at him with light in her eyes, "Yes InuYasha, of course I will! I love you!" He looked down at his beloved, "I love you too."
