Thanks so much for the love and support. I was thinking that I will just reply to reviews here, since I'm not getting many of them. Of course you can just skip right to the story.

LadyCash: Thanks so much for being the first to review! More will definitely come!

Guest: Hahaha… 'Inuytrasha'. Hasn't Koga said that before? Anyway, I won't kill him and Kikyo off just yet. I want him to see how happy Kag and Koga are before –possibly- doing that.

Kstewdeux: Koga is most definitely a good alternative. I was just rewatching Inuyasha and I noticed how much in love Koga was with Kagome. They would be cute together, which made this fic be born.

Enjoy. :)

Also, miko traditional clothing is just the style of clothes Kikyo and Kaede wear. Tabi and zori are shoes.

Kagome's P.O.V.

Did I really want to stay here with Koga?

I began to think about Koga's feelings for me. He was sweet. Doting. The complete opposite of Inuyasha now that I think about it. Koga wasn't a two-timing bastard like Inuyasha, either.

"Kagome, would you please bear me a son?" Miroku said, holding my hands. Before I could respond, Inuyasha was in his face.

"What do you think you're doing, lecher? Hands off!" He growled. I thought it was cute. He was jealous because he wanted me to himself.

Miroku observed us before realizing something. "Oh… I guess this is awkward. I thought you were just a mere companion, but you're in love with her." That made me happy, and I became more joyous as Inuyasha began to blush.

"Inuyasha…" I said, smiling at him. Was it true? Was Inuyasha truly in love with me?

"I… You've got it all wrong!" His temper returned. "I don't love her! She's just a jewel collector!" … That hurt. I didn't know what to say.

"Hmph…" I moved away from Inuyasha, crossing my arms stubbornly. "I must have forgotten. You obviously have a thing for dead girls. You know, maybe I should go with Miroku. He treats me better." The half demon then turned his short-temper towards me.

"You wouldn't dare betray me!"

Miroku spoke up again. "I mean, can you really blame her, Inuyasha? You could treat her a little nicer."

… I had made my decision. I was going to go with Koga. Inuyasha didn't think I was useful, but Koga did. Besides, Koga wasn't a bad guy.

Inuyasha would never, not in 50 years, admit to anyone that he was in love with me. Not even to himself. I bet he'd confess to anyone about his feelings for Kikyo in a heartbeat.

I snapped out of my thoughts, looking at Koga and Inuyasha as they continued to argue over me.

"I'm tired of your stench, mutt, and I'm sure Kagome is, too. Your disgusting scent gives me heartburn. What did you do to her?" That easily shut Inuyasha up. There was guilt in his golden eyes.

"I… What do you mean? That's none of your business. Get lost."

Koga growled at him. "It is my business! I care about the woman I love. There's a reason why she was out here all alone with a puppy like you." I could see the passion in his eyes as he spoke about me. "You are despicable, Inuyasha! I don't know what you did, but… Kagome's hands feel much colder than they usually do. And her beautiful cheeks, which are usually so rosy, are pale like a fish's belly! I can tell. You hurt her. There were so many emotions swirling in his eyes. "I would never do something to make her feel like that!" he yelled with love.

I…

No one had ever noticed things like that about me. No had ever talked about me with so much love. I didn't know what to say. Neither did Inuyasha. Gina and Hakkaku stood there, their mouths gaping.

"You wasted so much breath trying to get me away from her, but it's obvious that it should be the other way around. I need to get her away from the likes of you." Inuyasha said nothing. He wanted to protest, but Koga was right. Even with his stubborn attitude and huge ego, he could not deny that simple fact.

I looked down, my hands balling into fists. I then spoke, both of them looking at me. "Inuyasha… I… I'm going to help Koga and his tribe. They need my help more than you do." Both he and Koga were stunned by my words.

Inuyasha looked into my eyes with longing. I wouldn't let him lure me in. I couldn't. "Well… I guess this is goodbye, Kagome." I was going to cry, but I managed to keep my voice strong.

"I suppose so, Inuyasha. I wish you and Kikyo the best of luck." I could see his heart shatter right then and there.

I hated saying her name. This was all her fault. Koga must have wondered who Kikyo was. Maybe I would tell him, eventually. I looked down before looking up at Koga. "Um… I have to go give some supplies to my friends." He nodded in understanding, taking my bag from me. We walked away from Inuyasha, back towards the village. I couldn't look at him again. If I did, I knew I would change my mind and go running back to him.

… As soon as we were far enough, I looked back. He was still there.

Looking at me.

Longing for me.

"Kagome, are ye sure ye want to make such a rash decision? Inuyasha is an idiot. He will come to his senses soon enough." Kaede said. Whenever she looked at me, it felt like she was staring into my soul.

"No, Kaede. I can't rely on 'soon enough'. He and Kikyo are meant to be together. I'm not going to keep hurting their relationship. Inuyasha will continue to switch between us if I'm around." She looked at me, into my strong, unwavering eyes. She sighed.

"Very well then, Kagome." She got up, walking over to a small table covered in cloth. She came back with a light weight kimono similar in style to Sango's, miko traditional clothing, and a pair of zori and tabi. She handed it to me, the two outfits folded neatly with the shoes placed on top. "Ye are going to need this. Your current attire will not stand up to where ye are going."

I thanked her. Taking the clothes, I smiled and promised to visit. She had done a lot for me. Once I said goodbye to my friends, I left. I hoped I would see them soon. I took my bag from Koga. He waited outside for me the whole time. Quickly, I hurried home to stock up again and told my family that I would be gone for longer than usual. They wished me luck…

…

Inuyasha was no longer standing at the well. This was it.

Koga took my now stuffed bag from me. His smile was charming.

"Ready to go, sis?" Ginta asked, carrying my bike with Hakkaku helping him.

"Ready as I'll ever be..." Effortlessly, Koga scooped me up into his strong arms like I was his bride. I held on to him for dear life as he raced off towards the wolf den and away from my old life.
