Lonely

(Part 2 of Crawling)


Author's note- Hiya! Got bored, snowday, decided for a songfic to commemorate the end of another one of my fics- "Get over it"! So, here ya go!

It's Kagome's turn!


Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha nor the song, "Lonely" by Britney Spears.


*~*~*
To think I'm so naïve, how dare you play with me

I gave you heart 'n soul yea, tell me baby please

Why you screwin' with my head, I don't think you understand

I won't take you **** no more, don't knock on my door


Kagome was shocked when she saw Kikyo and Inuyasha kissing in the forest. Her heart felt like it was breaking again. Each time she found them, she felt like that. Why? It wasn't like she loved the baka, or was she? She shook that thought out of her head, and she looked at the two. Inuyasha seemed more than willing for that kiss.

I wish he could kiss me like that... She thought, and immediately she felt her eyes widen. She couldn't think that! She didn't like him! She couldn't!

She calmed down a bit, and noticed Inuyasha snapped out of a trance. He glared at Kikyo, and slapped her. Kagome's eyes were the size of dinner plates now. He'd never do something like that to Kikyo. Why now?

She could barely hear, "Kagome... I need her..." Kagome glared at him. He didn't really need her. She was just the replacement for Kikyo! She knew that. She also knew that he only considered her as his 'Tama detector'. There went her heart again. It broke at the sound "Tama".


Not this time because I recognize

I've heard it all before, and I


I think of all the time that I've wasted

Think of all the times that I took you back

Ain't no way I'll be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in

Let's just face it

Better off alone and I won't turn back

You thought that I would be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in


Kagome bit her lip, and stomped away, fairly aware that Inuyasha was following her. He knew she was there, as did he knew every time she 'accidentally' followed him into the forest when Kikyo was near. Kagome took a deep breath, and walked further into the forest, where she could sense two shards.

All during this trip, she heard branches shake, where Inuyasha was, watching her, following her. She smirked. She'd show him. She'd prove that she wasn't weak, and wouldn't need him to lean on.


Don't tell me how to feel or say that you're for real

My mind's made up, I'm cool without ya, you got no more appeal

Now this girl don't need no man to say what she can do or she can't

Now I live for me and, boy, does that make you weak?


"Kagome! Where's Inu-koro?" Kouga asked, when she approached him. "He's always following you. I don't like it."

"Shh. I came here on my own, Kouga-kun," Kagome told him, placing a finger on his lips. The wolf youkai grinned.

"So, you're not with him?" Kouga asked. She shook her head.

"Iie, he's with someone else..." Kagome said, her voice starting to crackle, but she stood strong. She wanted Inuyasha to hurt as much as she had been.

"That corpse floating around?" Kouga asked. Kagome nodded. "I don't know why you're always with him. If you mated with me, you'd be Princess of the wolf youkai."

"It's not that I haven't thought about it, Kouga-kun. It's just that in my time, girls don't usually get... mated... until they're older," Kagome told him. He grinned.

"Alright. I'll follow your customs," Kouga said, and lowered his face to hers, and kissed her deeply. She peeked into the forest and saw two golden eyes looking at her. They seemed to hold hurt in them. She then kissed Kouga right back.

The two broke away, and Kouga smiled at her.

"You better get going, or else the Inu-koro would come looking for you," He said.

"I know. Bye, Kouga-kun," Kagome said, and she walked back into the forest.

Inuyasha dropped from his branches, and looked at her, the hurt expression still on his face.

"What were you doing with him?" He asked. She just glared at him, and walked on.


Not this time because I realize

I've heard it all before, and I...


I think of all the time that I wasted

Think of all the times that I took you back

Ain't no way I'll be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in

Let's just face it

Better off alone and I won't turn back

You thought that I would be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in


"Kagome! Listen to me!" Inuyasha said, angry. He grabbed her arm, and pulled her against him. She felt slightly uncomfortable. She looked into his eyes.

"No!" She said. She pulled against him, but he held onto her arms tightly.

"Listen! Why'd you choose that wimpy wolf?" He asked.

"Maybe I should ask you why'd you choose that dead corpse? It's practically the same thing!" Kagome spit out.

"What do you mean?" Inuyasha asked.

"You treat me like I... I... I'm the one you love, but then you go with Kikyo and you.. you never know what that does to me," Kagome said. She successfully pulled out of his grasp, and said, "I've made my decision." She stomped away from him, towards the well, and Inuyasha stood there in the forest.


Think of times you made me cry

You had me so confused

I'm tired of trying, leave behind this

What's a girl to do


Inuyasha looked in the direction Kagome had went. He felt heartbroken. He felt a tear fall down his face, and wiped it away. He wasn't going to follow Kagome. He had a certain wolf youkai to kill.


In Kagome's time, she sat, huddled in the wellhouse, crying her eyes out. She realized how many times she's cried because of him. She gritted her teeth, and tightened her fists, angrily.


Think of all the times you made me sick

I used to think I couldn't handle it

What you think, I'm just another chick,

Mess with Brit, boy you must have tripped

What were you thinking when you lost my trust?

You had it all and now your left with nothing

Ooh, baby, now I know you want my touch

And now your lonely and you still want me


Inuyasha leapt into the well, and reached Kagome's time. He didn't get out, because he could hear her crying, and could smell it.

"Damn you, Inuyasha..." She was saying. "Why do I have to suffer like this?!" Inuyasha peeked out, and saw her back to him. She stood up, and he noticed small drops of blood - her blood - falling onto the floor, from her fists.


I think of all the time that I've wasted

Think of all the times that I took you back

Ain't no way I'll be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in

Let's just face it

Better off alone and I won't turn back

Thought that I would be lonely

I don't wanna let you back in


"Kagome...?" Inuyasha said. She turned around, and glared at him.

"Go away, Inuyasha! Go back to her. She's your true love. Not me!" Kagome said. Inuyasha sat on the lip of the well.

"I love YOU, Kagome," He said.

"I don't believe you," She said, and, in a quick sweep, she pushed him into the well, and, finding a bow and arrow, she shot the well, keeping it from working.


Goodbye, Inuyasha...
