*sigh* is there anything to talk about anymore?

DISCLAIMER: I don't own InuYasha or any InuYasha characters...

InuYasha woke up to the sound of Kagome screaming.

Instantly, he got up from his place on the coutch, and ran over to her room, only to find her still screaming, shaking, and trembeling in her bed.

He ran over to her, and kneeled at her side.

"Kagome... Kagome, It's okay... Kagome, wake up," InuYasha sopke softly to her, trying not to sound agressive, or sound like someone that would want to hurt her.

When talking didn't work, and Kagome was still whimpering, he decided to start shaking her, and talking louder.

"Kagome!" InuYasha said a little louder than he wanted to, but he started shaking her gently.

When she opened her eyes, he wrapped his arms around her, and felt her start to sob into his chest.

"D-don't..." but Kagome couldn't finish... she just kept on sobbing into his chest.

"Don't what, Kagome?" InuYasha asked her.

"D-do-n't l-leave... don't l-leave m-me," Kagome said while still sobbing.

"Don't worry, Kagome... I'll never leave you... never,"

Suddenly, Kagome moved over in her bed to the far side, and supurised InuYasha by asking him if her would sleep next to her.

"Would it make you happy?" InuYasha asked her.

InuYasha's heart started beating fast as he nodded.

InuYasha crawled in the bed next to her, and wiped away her tears when he was settled next to her.

Kagome pressed herself agenst InuYasha, and he felt himself relax at her being so close.

InuYasha wrapped his arms around her, and held her even closer to him.

As he breathed in her scent. he heard her breathing steady, and he realized that she was asleep.

He buried his face in her hair, still breathing in her scent, and he felt, too, sleep trying to take him, and he gave in. Falling asleep with the one he loves in his arms.

When Kagome woke up the next day, she felt oddly warm... then she remembered that InuYasha was still in her bed with her.

Kagome snuggled deeper into his chest, she didn't want to wake up... or even get up... ever.

She was happy, for the first time since she got raped, for real... she was in InuYasha's arms, and that was enough to make her happy, and feel safe.

"Hey," she heard the voice of InuYasha say.

"'Morning," she replied.

"How did you sleep?" InuYasha asked her softly.

"Horrible at first... then you came, then everything was..." was what I've always wanted she added silently.

"Was..." InuYasha prodded.

"Great," she finished.

"Good," InuYasha said.

"I need to call my mom to come pick us up... you want to take me back to the Feudal Era, right?"

InuYasha nodded.

"Well, the well is in Tokyo... and you don't know the way there, so I need to call my mom to take us to the shrine... then we can go back," Kagome said.

InuYasha nodded, "okay," he said.

"When did you plan on us going?" Kagome asked him.

InuYasha shrugged, "maybe... two, three days?" InuYasha said.

"Okay," Kagome replied, "we need to get ready then, yes?" she added.

"Yeah," InuYasha replied.
