Sweet Dreams
a/n: Thanks all you who reviewed...nothing else to say...so..to the story! ^.^
Kagome sighed; she pulled out another piece of blank paper and put the other in a folder. She thought for a while, what would she draw? She wanted to draw, but what? Before she knew it she was drawing lines on the paper, looking blankly at it as if she didn't even know she was drawing it.
She drew further, and shaded more, not paying much attention to what she was creating.
When Kagome was finished she looked clearly at it. His back was turned but he was looking over his shoulder with a blank stare frowning but looked peaceful. His ears stood tall and proud, and his fangs were visible. Kagome looked at the picture again, 'did I just draw InuYasha… why...' she thought silently to herself.
Sango yawned and turned her computer off. She had been typing away at it all night and looked like someone ran over her. Kagome rubbed her eyes. She looked around and everything blurred, her focus was unstable. Sango grabbed the picture out of her possession. Kagome grabbed for it, but Sango just turned away from her with her trademark evil smile.
"Oooo... Kagome, you did awesome! But what in the seven hells possessed you to draw InuYasha?" Sango asked as her friend jumped for the drawing.
"I don't know Sango," Kagome started, jumping again, "I just," jump, "didn't know what else," jump, "to draw," Kagome whined, jumping again and finally retrieving her art. Sango sighed. Her friend had lost it.
Kagome tucked the picture away safely in her folder, and shoved it under her mattress. Sango shrugged and turned off the light and fell asleep.
Kagome waited until she was sure Sango was asleep. Then retrieved her work, and stared at the picture. The moonlight was dim from the window above their dresser, but shone enough for Kagome to see the picture of InuYasha's eyes. She was lost in them, keeping her gaze on the texture and form of them.
They had so much emotion in them. Fear, sorrow, anger, happiness, determination, and confusion. She could relate to all. She thought awhile.
'Fear of what? Was it the thought of rejection, was it a past thought that makes him look this way all the time?
'Sorrow, for what, did he actually feel sad over something, another past time.
'Anger, he was always angry, but it was more of a cover up.
'Happiness, I can see happiness, every day he seems happier, Sango said he was never was that way.
'Determination, is that something that goes with his ego and pride, most likely.
'Confusion, what confused him so...what gives him this look' Kagome was also confused as she thought of this. She was so deep in her thought she didn't notice the door creak open as two golden eyes peered through. She finally set the picture down on the dresser before turning over.
"What is it about your eyes, InuYasha," she whispered before falling into a deep sleep.
InuYasha stepped back, 'did she just say...my name?' he questioned himself. All he came in for was Sango's Hitomi CD. He glanced over at the picture and back to Kagome. Then opened the door further and stepped in. Silently he walked over to the dresser and picked the picture up. 'She did it of...of me...why...(flashback~ "what is it about your eyes InuYasha," Kagome murmured and dozed off) my eyes, do they always look that way...' he put the picture down, stole Sango's CD, and walked out of the room shutting the door as silently as he could.
He walked to his room and peeled his black shirt off, flinging himself on his bed, making the bed squeak and Miroku mumble something about 'Girls'. Surprise surprise.
He placed the CD in his silver walkmen and pushed play, crossing his still cover legs so the blue jeans rubbed together.
A/n: This is a Japanese song but I wrote it out in English for you… only the first verse though…
Lovely baby I see
What do you wish to become
Love will find you eventually
Don't waist it on no one you love
So 'no' blue eyes
I cannot give you what you wish
Find your love on your own
Or suffer with unnoticed love…
A/n: it just reminded me of my story, okay? I wanted Kagome and all of the co. to listen to American Rock (My fav!) but I decided to give them Japanese music, though Kagome listens to American sometimes… because I already gave them American clothes (though Japan does sell that stuff!)
~Kagome's Dream (a/n: kag's POV)
A woman with short black hair threw a vase at a man with long black hair put in a braid. He stepped aside and just barley missed it. I was crying in the corner, holding my 2 year old baby brother in my arms. He was also crying.
Mother was yelling all sorts of things at the man with the long braid, like 'get out' or 'you lying bastard'. The fight was over a girl whom my father had a drink with. My father was at the bar that night sitting down with a young girl. My mother came down to tell him that dinner was ready, and saw this. A huge fight was what the result was.
She kept yelling things and I tried to block it out. She pushed father into a wall, there was a shelf there full of pictures and vases he knocked down and fell down into a box which was underneath it as all the glass broke on top his head.
"SEE, YOU BRAKE EVERYTHING, YOU BROKE THE PICTURE AND VASES, YOU BROKE THE TRUST, YOU BROKE THE LOVE, AND YOU BROKE THIS FAMILY APART," my mother yelled. Father stood up and brushed the glass away. He hadn't raised his voice once since the fight began. He didn't even yell now.
"Calm down, not in front of the kids," he said glancing over at us. But she didn't care, she kept shouting.
I looked down at Sota, "here, you push father back, and I'll push mother back, try to get father away from her," I said with a weak smile. Sota nodded and we stood up. Sota ran over to father and grabbed his hand. The man looked down, and allowed Sota to take him. I was just starting to push mother back when the woman backhanded me, sending me flying to the side.
"NEVER HIT MY CHILDREN, YOU CAN HIT ME BUT NEVER HIT MY CHILDREN," that was the first time I ever heard him yell, then I blacked out.
End dream~(a/n: normal POV)
Kagome shot up from the bed. 'Why' Kagome thought as tears formed in her eyes, 'why must it be true, why remind me' she thought to herself with a sob. She tried to choke back the tears, but didn't secede. She cried into her hands and ran to the door and outside.
InuYasha pulled the headphones from his ears just as the door slammed. He jumped out of bed and threw on a shirt, following behind her. He watched as she ran off back into the woods. She finally stopped at a tree and sat to choked back her tears in silence.
She promised she'd never cry again, not over anyone or anything.
Memories filled her head of times like those, and one caught her attention…
~Flashback
Kagome's father grabbed Sota's arm, then reached for Kagome. But Kagome was yanked away by her arm.
"Your not taking Kagome!" her mother hissed, and pulled her daughter behind herself.
Kagome's father glared, then looked down at Kagome with sympathetic eyes.
"GO NOW, BEFORE I CALL THE POLICE," she yelled. Her father flinched and looked back down to Kagome.
He started to run to the car but stopped and turned to her, "I'll come back for you," with that said, he pulled Sota in the car and drove off. Kagome ran down the driveway, crying, yelling for her father to come back, but he never did, not even after 8 years of waiting...
End flashback~
Kagome was sitting against the large tree, holding knees to her chest, her head was bowed as she choked back more tears, "Why... why did you never come for me, you promised, you said you'd come BACK," she almost screamed.
InuYasha walked out from the tree and laid a hand on her shoulder. She shot up and looked at him. She became lost in his eyes again. They were full of pity, sorrow, fear, and confusion now. 'Pity, I see pity in his eyes, does he pity me' she questioned. Finally she fell into his arms, and buried her head into his chest, breathing heavily to keep from crying, gripping his shoulders as if they were her life force.
InuYasha froze, but finally wrapped his arms around her, and lowered his face into her hair, smelling her sweet sent of butter coconut shampoo.
a/n: mmm... butter coconut....
"Why...why didn't he come for me..." she whispered to his heart, not expecting him to know what she meant or even answer.
But he did answer, "I don't know," was all he said.
Kagome closed her eyes tighter, until she fell into a light sleep. InuYasha picked her up and looked down at her sleeping features once again.
~Kagome's Dream
She felt the warmth of his body as she sat on his lap, his arms around her waist protectively.
He kissed her neck and shoulder, removing one hand from her stomach and placing it on her head, giving the back of it a kiss as well.
"Better now?" he asked kindly.
Kagome nodded and laughed lightly when he nibbled on her ear.
"I'll be here for you, always," he said kindly, resting his chin on her shoulder.
"I know," Kagome said peacefully.
End Dream~
He laid her down, and covered her up, brushing her hair back from her sleeping form.
A/n: Fluff for you satisfaction… ^.^ Soooo enjoy 'Sweet Dreams?'
