Earth Bound, But Flying Part #2









And I'm smiling, even though I'm dieing
To know the love she/he said would never be
~Duncan Sheik, Little Hands' from his CD: Duncan Sheik











When the girls where in the springs, Inu Yasha and Miroku tryed to make a fire and a persentible camp, or, at least, persentible enough to them anyway.

They never spoke to one another; there was silence, compleat silence, though out the small camp, and it was eating Inu Yashas nerves to peaces.

But still, he was silent.

Untill he notested that Miroku was smiling. It wasn't that he didn't like Miroku smiling, it just depended on what kind of smile it was. Like the I'm-about-to-grope-Sango-smile', or the lech smile, or the one where he was just smiling because he felt like it (usly because he knew something he didn't), but this smile got Inu Yasha most worryed. It was the fake smile: I-know-it's-fake-you-know-it's-fake-but-I-still-do-this-for-those-too-daft-to-know-it's-fake'. It was one of Miroku's many masks; no one really knew him, just his masks.
For all Inu Yasha knew, he could be a bastered working Naruku. But still, he trusted him, because Inu Yasha was very tiered of not trusting people; he was wery of being so suspisious of humans and demons alike. He was broght up to not trust strangers, but now he gave them the benifet of the doubt. But he also expected for them to trust him back, like anyone else would, and that's why Miroku's I-know-it's-fake-you-know-it's-fake-but-I-still-do-this-for-those-too-daft-to-know-it's-fake' smile was getting to him. Inu Yasha was hurt that Miroku didn't let him know what was going on, so now he was going to have to use forse, even though he rather not. Emotions, he learned, where presious things that shouldn't be tampered with too much; they where who we where. So he didn't usly barge in on other people's emotion' problems. Unless he had to. Like now.

Oi, Miroku, what in the seven hells is up wirth you? he growled to his compainion, sitting next to him, by the fire they had worked so hard to build.

Nothing Inu Yasha, Miroku smiled, discustingly fake.

Don't give me that shit bouzo, what's with you and Sango? You did something to her, didn't you? Inu Yasha spat, glaring.

It's nothing Inu Yasha, he answered in a tight, don't-mess-with-it and it's-not-your-bissnuss tone, standing up and leaving, surprisingly not in the direction of the bathing girls.

It was then Inu Yasha knew it was serious.

Miroku had walked off to clear his mind of his confusing thoughts. Why oh why did he tell Sango he was in love with her? Although it was true, he only thought it would bring her misery. He felt the Kanaazaa grow larger each and every time he used it. He didn't think it was much, untill that day. He almost felt like he was going to get sucked in himself. He knew then . . . that he would . . . soon . . .



And I know I'll say goodbye
To my friends and such
And I know I'll have to die
Sometime soon
In the future . . .

And I know I'll say goodbye
To those that I love
And I know I'll have to die
Because one of who I don't
It's my weapon
But it's my life . . .

And I know I'll say goodbye
To you
To you . . .

And I know I'll have to die
But I don't let it drag me
To the ground
'Cause you wont let me
Anyway

And I know I'll say goodbye
To those that I love
And I know I'll have to die
Because one of who I don't

And I know I'll say goodbye
To those that I love
To you
My friends.

When Sango went out of the baths, managing to calm her friend first, she too went out to think . . .



All the things he said
All the things he said
Running through my head
All the things he said
All the things he said
Running through my head
This is not enough

I'm in serious shit, I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I ever believe such a perfect surprise?

I keep asking myself, wondering how
I keep closing my eyes but I can't block you out
Wanna fly to a place where it's just you and me
Nobody else so we can be free

All the things he said
All the things he said
Running through my head
All the things he said
All the things he said
Running through my head
This is not enough
This is not enough

All the things he said
All the things he said

And I'm all mixed up, feeling cornered and ruhed
They say it's my fault but I want him so much
Wanna fly him away where the sun and rain
Come in over my face, wash away all the shame
When they stop and stare - don't worry me
'Cause I'm feeling for him what he's feeling for me
I can try to pretend, I can try to forget
But it's driving me mad, going out of my head . . .

You make me so excited
And I don't even want to fight it
I'm losing my cool agenst you
I look your way . . . do do do d' do



When Kagome had arrived at the camp, the two met eyes, then turned away and blushed, then took small, private, glances at each other occassionaly, as if the other was about to dissapear into thin air.

Inu Yasha grumbled to him self as he glanced at her beatiful face once more, then turned away, only to take a peek once more.




You've seen the the outside
But never the in
I'm losing my grip
I'm starting to fall
Don't try to stop me
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love



Kagome was having the same lack of self deciplen, although she blushed, embaressed at her lack of control. She thought of all the times he had saved her, and smiled.



I look at you, and start to blush
Can't even help it, my heart turns to mush
I've been waiting for you, for all my life
You are my prince . . . do do do d' do



They both caught each other stairs, put held.



You've seen the the outside
But never the in
I'm losing my grip
I'm starting to fall
Don't try to stop me
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love



Wench, what where you stairing at, he whispered, as if his breath had been taken away. But it was not so Kagome, for even though the words had no forse behind them, she still was angry, and stood up, and walked away, having the last of it, her tear drop splashing on the ground as a painful reminder that his words had hurt her, once more.



I'm starting to think
You don't like me
I'm so dissapointed
You're so mean
It's to bad . . . do do do d' do
I'm still in love . . . do do do d' do



Inu Yasha sighed, put let her leave. He wanted to be alone. He looked at the stars, their light never failing to amaze him. Like Kagome' he thought. He was always amazed at her light, even though the dark of night.



You've seen the the outside
But never the in
I'm losing my grip
I'm starting to fall
Don't try to stop me
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
Do do do d' do
'Cause I'm in love
