Author's Note: I am a very fast writer, if I do say so myself. So, my chapters will be on probably almost every other day. I plan to have at least 12 chapters total by the end. Thanks for the reviews!
Kagome ran past The Sacred Tree, and jumped into the well. Inuyasha was not far behind. He was still too late. Hikaru had finally caught up to them.
"INUYASHA, YOU IDIOT!" Hikaru screamed. "YOU DON'T JUST SAY THINGS LIKE THAT AND THINK THAT EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY!"
"But you nodded at me, so I thought that I was able to tell her!"
"I wanted you to make an excuse! Ass-hole!" she screamed back at him.
"Sorry," he muttered. "Women."
"WHAT!?"
"Nothing."
"Whatever, I guess I have to talk to her," Hikaru said, as she jumped down the well.
At Kagome's House
Kagome didn't want anyone to know that she was home. She snuck through the window and climbed onto her bed. Nothing was ever going to make this okay. Her eyes got extremely heavy. She quickly fell asleep.
In her dream, she could picture Inuyasha. His smile and how it lighted up her world. She was running towards it. Something held her back. Behind her, she could see a young, beautiful girl skipping towards Inuyasha. He smiled and held out his arms into an embrace that broke Kagome's heart. He turned and saw her. "Kagome! Kagome!" he cried out.
"Kagome, Kagome?" Hikaru asked, slightly nudging her.
"INUYASHA!" She awoke with a start.
"Umm…yeah. I came to talk to you about Inuyasha," she said confused.
"Oh. I don't…I don't want to talk about it," she said. "He cheated on me, and that's the end of it."
"But, he didn't," she explained. "You see, I've been sent there because I am in some relation to him. I might be able to help him if I do."
"I'm not sure if I can believe any word that comes out of your mouth."
Hikaru sighed and pulled back her hair. There were two small dog ears that poked out of the side of her head.
"That doesn't mean anything," Kagome said, scowling.
"Well, I'm from the future, and I am…uhh…Sesshomaru's great-great-great-great-great granddaughter, or something like that. My mother was the one that married a full demon, who made me half-demon."
"Then why did Inuyasha tell you that he loved you, even though he never knew you?"
"Well, when I was three, my mother took me to the well, and I visited him and Sesshomaru. Inuyasha was only five that year, and we were the best of friends. I had just told him my full name, and I guessed he remembered me."
"What is your last name?"
"Uhh, Hijokari."
"Well, I guess that I will believe all of it. You have too many details to lie that quickly," Kagome said, laughing.
Hikaru exhaled a sigh of relief. She couldn't tell her the truth, so that would have to do.
Kagome smiled, Hikaru went with Kagome back to the well, and they jumped in. They helped each other out, and walked back to the hut. Kagome went up to Inuyasha, hugged him, and told him, "Sorry. I should have talked to you. I didn't know that you and Hikaru were best buds at such a young age."
"……Huh?"
Hikaru gave him the death glare. He stared at her wide-eyed, and he said, "Oh, yeah! We were the best of friends! We did almost everything together. It was a lot of fun."
Inuyasha hated lying to Kagome, but he knew that it had to be done. She smiled and walked by the river, placing her feet in. Inuyasha climbed up, and sat in the tree next to her. He sighed, and looked up at the sky.
"What's wrong?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha shook his head. He jumped down from the tree, and quickly walked off. He needed some time to think, away from everyone else.
Kagome thought that he shouldn't be the one moody, so she pulled her feet out of the river, put her shoes on, and followed him.
"Come on. Tell me what's wrong," she pleaded, pouting all too cute. He looked at her and closed his eyes.
"Do you really want to know what's wrong with me?"
"Uh huh, I want to know what's going on. I don't like to see my husband all moody."
"I am not moody."
"Fine, just tell me what's wrong."
"I CAN'T STAND TO NOT HAVE A CHILD RIGHT NOW! OKAY! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!" He screamed at her, quickly regretting what he had just done.
"Oh. I am…sorry. It's…all my…fault." Kagome said as she burst into tears.
"No, no it's not. We just haven't been that lucky these past few months," he said as he grabbed her and held her.
"Yes it is." She pulled away. "I've been keeping a secret from you."
"What is it?"
"I may…I may be infertile."
"Oh…….What does that mean?"
"It means that we may never have any children." Tears were threatening to fall again. She closed her eyes, and muttered under her breath.
"Oh, don't say that. You have no idea what will happen in the near future. We may have a beautiful baby girl…" he said. "Or boy," he added quickly.
"You have been so wonderful. I love you, Inuyasha."
"I love you, too."
Hikaru, who was watching from a distance, had tears in her eyes. She never knew that she might have never been born. It made her proud that the hothead, Inuyasha, could be so kind after an outburst like that.
She froze. There was a slight breath on the back of her neck. She quickly and quietly turned around. She gasped, and said, "How the hell did you get here?"
The teenage boy that stood before her, smiled, and walked towards her.
"I've been waiting for the perfect time. And now that we're all alone, I have a few things to do."
"Like what?"
He picked her up, and…
MUAHAHAHAHA! ANOTHER CLIFFHANGER! YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN! MUAHAHAHAHA! Oh, and please REVIEW! thanx
