Inuyasha Fanfic To Lose the One I Love
By: Chiruken
Chapter 2
"Don't worry!" She waved over her shoulder. "I'll be back soon!" Humming softly under her breath she pushed branches aside carefully as she made her way towards the pond she'd spotted the night before as they'd searched for a place to make camp.
Pausing at the edge of the woods Kagome drew in a deep breath, closing her eyes as she inhaled the fresh unpolluted air. No smells of exhaust or dirty streets…nothing but fresh clean air. I could almost love it here…
With a sigh she opened her eyes and stepped away from the concealing trees and dropped her bag, setting her bow and arrows beside it on the lush green grass. "Yeah…I could love it here if I didn't have to fight for my life everyday or chase the shards from the Shikon no Tama…" Slowly she began to unbutton her blouse, a slight breeze blowing her dark hair across her eyes. "Or run away from youkai…" With another sigh she allowed her blouse to fall to the ground before reaching for the clasp of her skirt. But I've made so many wonderful friends along the way…Sango-chan, Miroku-sama, Shippou-chan, Kirara, Kaede-baachan… "Inuyasha…" She closed her eyes as she whispered his name on a deep sigh as she let her skirt slip down her body to pool at her feet. Stretching her arms above her head, Kagome arched her back to work the lingering stiffness out of her tired muscles before slipping out of her shoes and removing her socks. Standing in her bra and panties she tilted her face up to the sky and watched as the sun chased the lingering darkness away, hues of pinks and blues slowly spreading above her. "Ahhh…kirei…" She whispered softly, a smile spreading across her face to light up her eyes with joy.
"Ee…kirei…"
Kagome spun, eyes wide with shock. "I-Inuyasha!" She quickly raised her hands in an attempt to cover herself.
"Kagome…" He stepped forward slowly, head lowered and hair falling across his eyes shielding their expression from her. "You shouldn't run around by yourself. It isn't safe."
Eyes narrowing she scowled at the hanyou and slowly backed away from his steadily approaching form. "Inuyasha, what are you doing?"
A low chuckle emerged from his throat. "Protecting you of course." He stepped forward slowly closing the distance between them.
"F-from what?" She eyed him warily, wondering why he still wouldn't meet her eyes directly. Her uneasiness continued to grow as she backed away from him and he followed.
"You never know what you might meet…"
"Inuyasha, this isn't funny. Turn around." She stood teetering on the edge of the pond.
He paused and shook his head. "No."
Eyes widening in shock she stared at him for a moment speechless. "Wh-what?"
He lifted his head finally to look at her directly, golden eyes shimmering with a myriad of indescribable emotions. "Kagome…" The wind played through the leaves casting dappled light on the scene, lifting his hair to brush silver strands across his face as his ears twitched catching every nuance of sound in the area.
Kagome closed her right hand into a fist over her heart feeling it thud almost painfully in her chest as she met his steady gaze. "Inu…yasha…" She whispered, lips trembling as she shivered under his unblinking scrutiny.

Author's Notes:
Thanks everyone who's reviewed so far.
As for definitions, I've found a wonderful site that does translations (just take the spaces out):
http : / / www . solon . org / cgi-bin / j-e / dict
Unfortunately some of the words I've seen associated with the show aren't easily found. **shrugs** But I try.
As with the previous chappie, this is also in flashback mode. I'll probably stay in this mode for a while. **wink**
Take care!
