How Kikyou Loved her Hanyou
They had walked for a day and a half before they even reached Kaede's
village. No one was in a very good mood about losing two weeks off of
their voyage. Kagome especially was annoyed with Inuyasha, who still
didn't know of her sacrifice to save his life.
"You annoying little turd!" Kagome yelled in frustration. He just
didn't know when to quit, did he?
"I'm only saying that that Kouga guy is a weak little wolf that isn't
suitable for protection." Inuyasha reasoned. Lord, this chick doesn't
like to listen to people, does she?
"I think they are gonna fall in lo-ove." Sango, with Shippou on her
shoulder whispered loudly to Miroku who whispered his agreement back.
Inuyasha and Kagome stopped arguing and stared at them. Sango,
Miroku, and Shippou failed to notice and continued whispering and
walking past the village. Kagome sighed and Inuyasha grunted.
"Aren't they just so weird…" Kagome marveled.
"Yeah, they're one's to talk." Inuyasha grumbled.

They had been walking for an hour or so past the village when
Inuyasha suddenly grumbled.
"I smell something nasty." Kouga suddenly skidded to a halt in front
of Kagome. "Yup, really nasty." Inuyasha mumbled.
"So, Kagome, why are you guys way back here. I tried to find you a
day after I had left to scout out the path ahead, and couldn't find
you at all. What happened?"
"A demon encounter." Kagome answered stiffly. She wished she didn't
have to do this…
"Are you alright?" Kouga asked worriedly. He really did genuinely
care about her; why couldn't she love him that much? She had been
pondering this for awhile though, and she knew what she had to do,
but she was going to wait until they set up camp to do it. She was
going to at least give him the courtesy of doing it in remote
privacy; especially not in front of Inuyasha…
They set up camp that night and started talking to each other in
little groups and Kagome recognized the golden opportunity with a
sense of dread. She had contracted a feeling like there was a cold
stone churning in the bottom of her stomach. Her mind whizzed with
excuses about why this wasn't the right time; or how she really did
love him, but she knew the truth. That truth was that she just might
have loved Kouga once, but never the same way that she knew Kikyou
loved her hanyou. Kagome walked over to Kouga, who was in an argument
with Inuyasha about something having to do with the rules of arm
wrestling, and pulled him aside.
"Can I talk to you alone over there?" Kagome asked nervously. She
fidgeted with her fingers. Couldn't this just be over already? Kouga
smiled.
"Sure, sweetie." He gave Inuyasha a look and the hanyou glowered.
They walked behind the trees and Kagome sighed. Here was the hard
part…
"Kouga," he looked up expectantly, not to mention painfully for
Kagome "you know I care about you, right?"
"Of course I do, and you know I love you, Kagome." Kouga said,
however counter productively.
"Well, that's what I came to talk to you about. I think we should
break up." Kagome sucked it a breath. So it was out. Kouga just kind
of looked at her and blinked.
"But, you're my woman…" Kouga started to say, but stopped. "Okay, it
that's what you want, Kagome, but I'll always be here for you. We are
still friends, right?" Kouga searched her eyes hopefully. She smiled
a relieved smile.
"Of course we are Kouga-kun, for a lifetime."

The following morning Kouga said that he would probably be more help
back with babaa-sama's village protecting her and the village.
"Because," he said with a wink at Kagome "that village is a famous
bad-guy hangout for unknown reasons." With that, he was off. Kagome
waved cheerily after him. They had talked most of the night, just
about memories and such, but they had a wonderful time.
"So, did you do it?" Sango asked Kagome in a hushed voice.
"Yeah, but we're still really good friends." Kagome smiled. She
didn't think that it could have gone any better.
"Good," Sango laughed "I think Inu was beginning to think that you
guys were having sex back there." Kagome was shocked. Inuyasha cared?
"Why would he care?" Kagome asked gruffly, in a not very being gruff
sort of way. Sango laughed.
Take a wild guess, child. Cause he's coming this way." Kagome looked
up to witness a very angry Inuyasha huffing his way over to them.
"Inuyasha…" Kagome whispered.
(A/n: Kinda short, I know, but that was where it needed to end. Sorry
for the delay on the last couple-a chapters, life and things like it
need much attention sometimes. More chapters are comin' up! This
story ain't near done yet!)
