IM me at MetalMononoke! Arigato! Now--- to chapter 5!
And That's Why I Love You
By: Emiru the Metal Mononoke
Chapter 5: Confessions
Inu-Yasha sat there quietly, the body of his lover pressed gently
on his chest. He touched her gently, as if she were a frail China doll.
'She loves me for me,' Inu-Yasha thought to himself, as a sigh of relief
escaped his grasp. Then Inu-Yasha reasoned with himself, 'of course, she
has always loved me for me, right? I knew that all along, didn't I? We
have been through so much together, achieved great achievements...
futari (together)...' Although he knew he loved her, and that she loved
him, he felt so confused. How would this go over with Kagome's family?
Would they accept him for who he was, or would they just look at him as
a horrible, hopeless demon? Inu-Yasha assured himself that they'd be just
like Kagome; sweet, kind, knowing. But another part of Inu-Yasha told
him that her family might be harder to defeat than Naraku. Maybe their
love would be a war.
"Kagome---" Inu-Yasha said her name as if it hurt him to say
it; he sounded very worried. "What is it? Inu-Yasha?" she responded,
not knowing what to expect from her dog-boy. "Well... how do you think
your family will react?" Kagome looked confused, "react to what?" Inu-
Yasha lightly blushed and answered, "to our love." Kagome smiled, and
playfully tossed Inu-Yasha's long black hair. "I'm not sure... But if
my okaasan is really the person she claims to be... she'll support our
decision." Inu-Yasha looked relieved. It was funny how Kagome's words,
nonchalant or serious, soothed his soul. Kagome was a magical girl, she
was special. Kaede Obaba knew that from the start, but Inu-Yasha needed
more persuasion. Kagome was always so kind and understanding. She
was one of the people who could know you for an hour, and she would
understand you as if you'd always been friends with her.
A night owl surveyed the ground below him, as the soft lullabye
of a mother could be heard. The sky was empty except for billions
of firey stars playfull dancing about the sky. A warm summer breeze
tossed flower petals about, as a flower bent over and slowly died.
"Kagome... tomorrow we need to tell your family, okay?" Kagome was
surprised that Inu-Yasha was really putting this much effort into their
relationship. She was also very worried about her family's reaction to
the choice she had made. There were so many men who would love to be with
Kagome, and the fact that she chose a hanyou from sengoku jidai...
Well, that would greatly suprise them. But she was determined, because
she knew her future, her fate, had finally been decided, and that she
were to wed Inu-Yasha. "Yes," she responded, figuring that hiding their
love would only make her family suspicious.
That night Kagome and Inu-Yasha slept in eachothers arms in
an open field. The field somehow reminded Kagome of her past, but she
wasn't sure of exactly how it reminded her. When she was a child she
would often sit in a clearing of a field and weave together flower
crowns, giving them to her baby brother. She would weave together long
chains of flowers and hang them around Souta's bedroom, each day she
would add on another flower to symbolize how many days he had been
alive. After her father got sick and went to the hospital, Kagome found
an old basket and put it near her bedside. Every day she would put a
flower into the basket symbolizing how many days her father was in the
hospital. The day her father died she burnt the flowers and the basket
in a small field, trying to sustain her sorrow. She missed her father
very much, and often attempted to recall past memories of him-- but she
had forgotten so much about him. All her memories of him are hidden into
a lullabye that he used to sing to her as a child.
Kagome, Kagome
Where have the children gone
A sweet bird
With golden wings
Is said to be gone
Kagome, Kagome
A sweet tennyo kisses you
Happiness
The road ahead
Has all been given to you
Kagome, Kagome
Fear not my darling child
Because this life
Is not that long
Our future as a child
