Chapter One: You Give Me Love
~*~
"SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!"
WHAM.
"GODS! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!" Inu-Yasha cried angrily from the ground.
"YOU KNOW PERFECTLY WELL WHY!" Kagome screamed, stomping through a flowery field on her way to the well.
"*NO*, I *DON'T*!" Inu-Yasha growled in annoyance. "So why don't you ENLIGHTEN me?!"
Kagome whirled around. Inu-Yasha could suddenly see in horror that she was crying.
"You were comparing me to HER again!!" Kagome seethed, tears streaming with furry down her face.
Inu looked at her in shock. "When. . . when did I do that?"
Kagome glared, the tears glistening in the sun. "When you said that Kikyo had liked these flowers too," she gestured towards the pretty pink flowers that blossomed all over the field.
". . . But why is that bad?" Inu-Yasha asked, his curiosity genuine. "They *are* very pretty flowers. Why are you so ticked off that I mentioned Kikyo used to like them too?"
Kagome faced her back to him again, her arms crossed. "It- it- when you compare me like that. . ." her voice shrank. "It makes me unsure of who I am and. . . and how you feel about. . . me. Me as a person. Me not being Kikyo."
Inu got up slowly, and walked over to Kagome. Reaching out, he took hold of her arm and gently turned her to face him.
She looked up at the haniyou with wide, tear filled eyes.
He bit his bottom lip gently and wiped her tears away gingerly.
*You turn around
Then you ask me behind tears of doubt
Just what do I see in you
Please don't cry
I know sometimes it seems we barely get by
But you don't see how much you do
To get me through*
"What *do* you see in me, Inu-Yasha?" Kagome whispered, her voice wavering. "What is it about me that kept you from killing me on all our adventures, apart from that damn rosary?"
"Well. . . you're- you-" He struggled with the right words.
*When the world is cold
And I need a friend to hold
You give me love. . . you give me love
And when my hope is gone
And I feel I can't go on
You pick me up
You give me love. . . you give me love*
"You're special. They're something about you that makes you different then everyone else. You see me as more then just a half breed."
"But you *are*," Kagome whispered. "You're a very special person."
Inu-Yasha smiled gently at her, still cupping her face in his hands. Then he frowned, but more at himself then her. "I'm sorry for making you feel bad. . . But haven't I told you over and over, time and time again that you're not Kikyo? That you ARE special?"
*I apologize
If I never told you what you were in my eyes
Oh baby, let me tell you now
Every day
Looks sweeter knowing
You'll be there in every way
Now how can you say that's not enough*
Kagome was quiet for a moment, then leaned into Inu-Yasha, hugging him tightly.
Though surprised at first, Inu-Yasha hugged her back, just as tightly.
*'Cause when the world is cold
And I need a friend to hold
You give me love. . . you give me love
And when my hope is gone
And it feels I can't go on
You pick me up
You give me love, you give me-*
"I'm sorry," Kagome whispered, "that I over reacted. I guess I. . . I'm worried that I'll lose. And," she smiled sadly, "what would be more pathetic then losing to a dead girl?"
"Lose? Lose what?" Inu asked curiously, looking down at Kagome. She just smiled a small smile and hugged Inu-Yasha tighter.
"Never mind, Inu-Yasha."
Inu-Yasha shrugged, deciding it wasn't worth worrying about. Instead, he let himself take in Kagome's sweet sent until he was almost drunk on it.
*Everything my heart desires
Morning sun and midnight fires
Someone there to share my dreams
With you I have everything
When the world is cold
And I need a friend to hold me
You give me love. . . you give me love
And when my hope is gone
And I feel I can't go on
You pick me up
You give me love*
Kagome looked up at Inu-Yasha. Her eyes were dry now, but there were still red trails down her cheeks from where the tears had flowed.
"Inu-Yasha?"
"Yeah?" he replied looking down at the girl in his arms. He wished he could keep her there forever.
"Do. . . would you mind if I. . ."
"If you. . .?"
*Yeah, when my world is cold
And I need a friend to hold me
You give me love. . . you give me love
And when my hope is gone
And I feel I can't go on
You pick me up*
Kagome leaned forward, almost on tip toe, until her and Inu-Yasha's lips touched in a fiery kiss.
*You give me love!*
