Chapter: 12 Falling In Love All Over Again.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

After eating a filling meal. Kagome walked out to get some air. She walked down her Kimono blowing to the side in the cool breeze. It wasn't raining much it was drizzling. Not enough to make you wet. She walked into a garden and looked through all the wildlife. Birds played in the puddles on the ground and the trees swayed left. She walked into the middle and a wooden bench was sitting under a great cherry blossom tree. She walked to it and sat pondering in deep thought. The wind blew mixing the pink-ish white leaves into her hair. It carried numerous cherry blossoms around her. It was late into the spring season and they were dying away being plucked by the great hand of the wind and thrown to the ground. Kagome was spreading her white kimono evenly as a delicate silk-ish petal fall on her kimono. She gently touched it feeling the smooth texture of nature on this petal. It was slightly wet but it made all the more beautiful. 'Why do I Love Inuyasha?' Kagome shook her head. ' I can't believe I'm asking myself this… I know why… Don't I?' 'Oh well…is it because I? I Don't know!!!! Oh no!!! DO I EVEN LOVE HIM!! AM I EVEN GOOD ENOUGH?' Kagome's eyes filled with tears and they began pouring down her face. 'I can't believe I don't know……'

Inuyasha was secretly watching Kagome from some bushes. Kagome looked like a fragile angel. He pondered himself. Even though she looked so tender and such a soft and gentle creature. She was hard and tough. 'On the onside she looks sweet, frail, happy, and weak like a child. But on the other side she is tough, and hard. She doesn't give in to hard situations and she doesn't take any crap. She has the most powerful attacks that I've seen by a human ever.' He stopped thinking and stared long and hard at Kagome. 'She's crying.. but why…is it something I have done. She looks so sad and lonely. Maybe I should go to her…No… I'll watch to see what happens.'

Kagome tried replaying everything in her head that had happened. She replayed what had happened when they first met. Flashback: ((I'm gonna right this from Kagome's point of view))

'He looked out of the corner of his eyes and turned glaring more evilly then ever. I Looked straight into his golden eyes. His ears twitched slightly he looked at his claws then back at me. I thought he was going to kill me. I was scared inside but I didn't let him see that. A light wind blew blowing cherry blossoms off the trees all around us. It was spring and they had just began to bloom. The sun shown in the middle shinning on us. My hair blew a crossed my face. I wasn't sure what to do. I just kept staring. I couldn't keep my hard expression on and my eyes grew soft. My cold smile vanished and turned warm and friendly. I Knew he was something special… So I lowered my bow and arrow and put them aside. It startled Inuyasha making him take a step back.'

End of Flash back

'The reason why is I didn't kill him is because I knew there was something about him…Just something… I feel safe when I'm around him and, I feel important…and loved…but why does He love me? Kagome closed her eyes and was taken back to when she had visited him for a second time.

Flashback:

'I fell onto Inuyasha in the water our lips meeting. I felt a wonderful sensation deep down inside of my heart but I remembered what had happened and pushed myself off of him. He had released my hand when we kissed. I broke the surface and breathed in. Shortly after so did Inuyasha. Only to be hit upside the head with a branch.'

End of Flashback

Kagome smiled to herself. ' Oh I hope I didn't hurt him with the branch…but what I'm wondering is…did he even care, that we did…or did he have the same feelings. He obviously didn't cause he laughed at me. Maybe just maybe he felt something too and his anger or whatever you call it, stubbornness.. Hide it from me….and himself.' Just then a small little Kitsune sat next to Kagome.

"Hiya Kagome whattda doin' out here all my yourself?" He blinked and noticed her red puffy face and red eyes. He blinked and hugged her. Kagome smiled and hugged him back. Him being a full demon though being small could fully understand what's going on. "Your confused aren't you…. You don't know what to do…" Shippo paused. She looked over nodding. "You are trying to decide what you want.. Your not sure If your ment to be with Inuyasha or Hojo, You think Inuyasha would be better off with someone else.. Or that your not good enough for him." Kagome smiled warmly. He read her like and open book. Inuyasha's ears twitched and he sat stunned. 'Is this what she thinks? She's not good enough for me? But what about me? Will I be loyal and be good enough for her? She could easily have any man she wanted. Hell! She almost got married, but what made her stop? And will she go with Hojo?' This was much for Inuyasha and he snuck away and jumped on top of a roof and laid their trying to sort out his thoughts separately.

"Kagome don't worry! You're the best thing that happen to that over grown pup!" Kagome giggled slightly. "He loves you with all his heart and nothing is gonna change that.. Kagome think, Sango told me that you were going to get married to a guy named Kouga. So why didn't you?" Kagome sat their and reflected on it.

' He's right you know Kagome…' said a voice in her head. ' The reason why you didn't get married cause you knew deep down in you heart. You belonged somewhere else. You have that inner connection, your hearts are joined by an invisible force. Which could never be broken . Not by anything. You know when he's hurt or when he's in trouble. You can sense that…meaning you to are destined to be together. He protects you, in turn you love him and keep him out of harms way. It's what they call soul mates.'

"Kagome? Kagome?" He shattered her daydream and she looked at Shippo "You ok?"

"Yes, I'm fine…Where's Inuyasha I've got to talk to him."

"He might be back in the castle." Shippo replied smiling.

"You know what Shippo I'm very proud of you. You helped me and your becoming a very wise for your age."

"Oh really you think so? Wow thanks Kagome! I'm gonna have to thank Miroku then he told me all that!" Shippo laughed and run away into the castle leaving Kagome with a funny grin on her face.

"Oh..Shippo.." Kagome laughed at herself and him.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Inuyasha sat his arms underneath his head. The wind wasn't terribly cold and the light rain wasn't bothering him either. ' why didn't I kill her…I know she loves me because she didn't get married to Kouga, but she really seems to like Hojo. He can do a lot more then I can, he can give her a castle, a home, a life. What can I give her? What does she need? When I'm around her I feel like I'm not some stupid pathetic worthless half demon. I really don't feel the need to become full-demon either. I just want Kagome to be happy…it doesn't matter about me, it matters about her.'

"Inuyasha!" Inuyasha sat up and looked down as he watched Kagome walk towards the castle roof in which he was sitting on. He blinked and watched her. Kagome looked up noticing him. He was sitting their. He didn't look like he was mean or stubborn at all. He looked distance and strong. There was void between him and her. He looked confident but he wasn't smiling. He seemed to be watching her also. His eyes were confused and sad. A small stream of sunlight shown on him lighting up his hair and facial expression all the more. His eyes were like gold and could pierce through your soul down into it's truth and tell him everything about you. Kagome blushed at this sight. Inuyasha stood and jumped down landing softly on the ground. He looked like he could float. This made Kagome smile and she walked and stopped standing right in front of him. There eyes met and it made them look at each other longer. "I want to tell you something." Inuyasha saw his chance and interrupted.

"No Kagome I need to tell you something." Kagome stopped and nodded for him to continue. "Kagome I understand how you feel…And your right…I'm not good enough for you….Hojo would make a better husband and protector for you. He'll give you a better life then me. I'll probably get you killed." He paused and went on. "Now I'm telling you. Marry Hojo and forgot about me…I'll be fine on my own.. And I can handle Sesshomaru without you. I'm going to leave now." He stopped his golden eyes were wet and he turned his back to her and started walking away. He was fighting back not only his feelings but tears. This was incredibly hard for him. Her being his first love and friend. Leaving seemed to be killing him with every step he took. Kagome watched her eyes wide her mouth gapped open. This all happen way to fast for her and her life was crumbling before her. She watched in bewilderment and horror. Her lipped quivered and this all seemed to be a bad dream but it was reality. She had to stop him before he walked out of her life for good. Inuyasha felt a tug on his heart and he tried to hide it but it failed miserably and a tear rolled down his cheek.

"INUYASHA!" He turned and looked back. Kagome's eyes spilled tears as they ran down her face. She ran to him and fell into his arms gripping his haori. "I never wanted you to leave!! I never loved Hojo!! I Love you!! You're my angel Inuyasha! You rescued me from my life and taught me things I never knew before!" Inuyasha eyes widen and he held her tenderly. "I want to be with you forever Inuyasha and nothing in this horrible world is going to change that! Not ever!!" She looked up releasing his haori. She gave him a heartbreaking look. "It doesn't matter to me, that you can't give me the things that Hojo can. Your love and mine….it's what completes a missing part of my heart that I never new existed.. Inuyasha you're my soul mate." This struck Inuyasha in his heart and soul. Suddenly everything became clear. He wanted the same. The only thing that mattered was Kagome. His stupid Ass-Hole brother could take his land for all he cared. He only wanted to be with and love Kagome. He wanted her to be his wife and to be the mother of his pups. Being demon seemed like a dream, A dream which he never intended on dreaming or reliving ever again.

"Kagome…" He wiped the tears away from her eyes. " Your right…you're my soul mate also…I knew it all along…but I never faced it. You have also changed my life also. I trust humans more then I ever did. I'm not selfish anymore and I care about other people's feelings. I only wanted the best for you. Even though I couldn't give it to you. But now I know that the best I can give to you is me. I love you…and I want to be with you also. I'm afraid that during one of my battles that you will get hurt and die." Kagome looked at him still and spoke.

"Inuyasha I'll stand by you." She stood on her toes and kissed him holding his haori in her hands. Inuyasha kissed back with deep affection putting his arms on her hair. As they kissed passionately. Three heads popped out of a bush from the side. Sango smiled while Miroku looked at her. Shippo made a funny face.

"How are they breathing? They look like there eating each other's head. How do they do that? Miroku slapped his staff upon his head and the Kitsune was quiet and remained quiet when Sango and Miroku carried him back. Shippo eyes had swirlies in them as they left Kagome and Inuyasha to there kiss. "Ahhhh.." said Shippo as he was being carried away.
