Disclaimer: I could cry and wail all I want, but that qwon't make Inu-Yasha mine...but...*sniff sniff* It makes me FEEL better!!!!

I was feeling lonely today, so I decided to make a songfic. Inu's mommy singing (from her point of view, then to Inu's); it's the song from 'The Rescuers' movie: I love dis song!! ^-^ Go Chibi Inu!

Someone's Waiting for You

I'm watching you today. Watching as the other children reject you, call you names. I fell your sadness. My poor little son. Your ears are flat against your head as you turn away sadness, do you do this everday? Do you cry and pretend to be fine, yet, never tell me?

*** Be brave little one Make a wish for each sad little tear ***

"Inu-Yasha?"

You freeze, the look on your face making it clear that you think I'm angry, that you are in trouble. In truth, I think I used that quiet little voice I use when I'm angry. It was your father who used to lok at me like you are know, that pleading little face that tries to talk without words and apologize for any unknown crimes that had been committed.

*** Hold your head up though no one is near Someone's waiting for you ***

You trot over to me, ears now completely buried in your thick mane of white hair, your expression as though you are marching in a funeral procession. At times like this, you almost look human.

*** Don't cry little one There'll be a smile where a frown use to be ***

"Yes?"

You're acting as though you think I'm going to jump up and hit you over the head. I smile gently and hold out my arms to you, and you walk cautiously into the embrace, hardly daring to believe I only called you over for a hug.

*** You'll be part of the love that you see Someone's waiting for you ***

I can feel you bury your face into my shoulder. I hug you tightly and kiss your forehead, a gesture reserved for bedtime and the night of the new moon, when your power as a hanyou fades away.

*** Always keep a little prayer in your pocket And you're sure to see the light ***

"Inu-Yasha, why are you shaking?"

You hug me tighter, trembling. "You're not leaving, right?"

"Why would I leave?"

"Because Dad did..."

*** Soon there'll be joy and happiness And your little world will be bright ***

"Inu-Yasha? Wake up!"

I'm awake...and whose arms are around me? I look up...Kagome?

*** Have faith little one 'Til your hopes and your wishes come true ***

"I think you were having a nightmare Inu-Yasha..."

"Feh! Demons don't have nightmares!"

"Then why were you hugging me?

"..."

*** You must try to be brave little one Someone's waiting to love you ***
