"Kagome!" Kikyo screamed. "Why did you come back… you should just go back. I keep telling you he isn't yours." She walks out of the dark. My eyes grew as I looked at her.
"I'm carrying his child." She grinned. Her face looking incredibly evil.
"This isn't true! This is just a dream." I close my eyes not wanting to look at her.
"Think what you want, you will find out soon." She chuckled.
I open my eyes again to see everyone sleeping. I roll Shippou off of me, slowly getting up, making sure not to wake anyone up I sleep outside.
"It must be around 6am…" I whispered.
I view the morning sky thankful that I'm here, just wishing things were different.
'I wonder if she's really pregnant…' I think, hoping it's not true. I look up and off in the distance and see A-Un, Sesshomarus' beast of burden flying with Rin and Jaken.
"I wonder if he would know?" I ask myself aloud.
"He would know what?" InuYasha questions me, scaring me.
"You scared me InuYasha!" I squeal.
"Sorry, he would know what?" He asks again.
Oh-Uh nothing." The words stumble.
He sits beside me. "I'm ready to talk." He states.
"I know you must be wondering a lot of things." He looks down at me quickly, then stares off at A-Un.
"Why are you being so cold towards me?" I look at his face hoping for the InuYasha I knew before to come back.
"When we were fighting before… It really hurt when you just ran back home, and I saw the jewel shard where you left your backpack, so I figured you didn't want to come back." His words full of hurt.
*******Flashback to three months ago********
"Kagome, can I talk to you alone?" InuYasha Whispers in my ear.
I nod and walk out of Kaedes' hut with him. We walk to the nearby river and sit next to the gingko tree that we sat under when I first met him.
"I have something I need to confess." He states.
"Alright, go ahead." I look into his deep golden eyes.
His cheeks turn pink making me blush in return.
"Well uh… I don't know how to say it." He fidgets with his fingers.
"Just go ahead." I say grabbing his hands with mine.
He looks up and stares at something in the distance. I follow his eyes where another pair of eyes meet mine.
"Kikyo." Her name rolling off of my tongue harshly.
He looks back at me and before he can finish I could feel the anger burning up inside me. "You don't need to say anything." I yell. I drop his hands and bring mine up to slap him in the face. "I never want to see you again!" I scream at him, regretting the words as soon as I say it. I run back to the hut tears running down my face. I grab my back pack without realizing that I dropped the jewel shard.
Back to present
Tears fall from my face as I think of the horrible memory. "You didn't let me explain that day. You jumped to conclusions." He whispered.
"So, I changed my mind. I had looked for you and when I saw your backpack gone and the jewel shards there I knew you made up your mind. But I guess we both jumped to conclusions."
"What were you going to tell me?" I looked at his face for answers.
"It doesn't matter now, and I'd rather leave it there." He got up leaving those to be his last words. He walked back into the cave. I put my head in my knees and cried. The pain I feel is like nothing I've ever felt. 'I've ruined things. It's all my fault.' I thought to myself.
Sango comes out of the cave and sits next to me. "Are you okay? I heard what he told you." She says as she pulls me into her. She looks at me and wipes my tears from my face. "This is the first time we've been face to face with him since just after you left. He's changed a lot. Miroku is really mad at the way he's been." Her words not as comforting as she wished they were.
"What do you want to do?" She asks me. "Well…If he wants to stay with us fine. If he wants to leave he can. As much as it hurts I will have to just find the strength." The words sting my tongue as I say them. She nods her head, stands up and pulls me with her.
"I don't know about you, but I need a bath! And baths haven't been the same without you." She says excitedly. She heads back in the cave grabbing some extra clothes she brought from Kaede, and some soap she made.
We walk to the nearby hot spring, we both undress and get in. "I missed the natural hot springs." I laugh.
We both lay back relaxing, enjoying the morning hot spring bath. "The hot springs in my time aren't as clean and amazing as the ones in this time." The words roll off my tongue, I groan.
"It feels amazing, I really needed this." We both agree at what I said.
Sango washes her body and gets out. "I'm going to head back; will you be okay?" She asks, I could hear the concern in her voice.
"Yes, I'll be alright." I try to reassure her.
I grab her soap and rub it all over my body and into my hair trying to scrub off all of the dirt. I lay back into the spring closing my eyes. Feeling the water dance all over my body.
'This feels amazing.' I reluctantly think. Letting myself forget all the worries and sadness that have been on my mind slip away. I cross my arms over my body, like if I were to hug myself. 'I'm kind of lonely.'
Suddenly I hear the bushes on the other side of the spring moving. I hide behind the rocks that separate the hot spring from the other side. I hear someone get in. I peak from behind the rocks to see who it is.
P.s Should I write any chapters in another characters POV? Or maybe switch from POV's in chapters? What do you think? Hope everyone is enjoying. It's good to write and be able to continuously have ideas.
