in the morning kagome was woken up by a loud bang.
"what was that?!" kagome said sitting up. her head still hurt from that night, and so did her heart
"ummmmm." inuyasha looked a little sheepishly at her.
"what did you do?" kagome asked in a half knowing voice.
"umm, miroku tried to wake me up and i thought i was being attacked, and now he's over in the corner... unconsious... but he looks so cute when he's asleep." inuyasha ended in a teasing voice.
"um yeah i have to go outside for awhile." kagome said remembering what had happened that night and the decision she had made.
"ok." inuyasha said in a suspicios voice. 'why did she just bolt out of here like i was a monster?'

kagome sat under the tree where her and inuyasha first met. "this tree. this is the tree that started all this pain. i hate this tree. i wish it would wither up and die just like inuyasha and kikyo." kagome said in a horribly angry voice. kagome gasped at what had just came out of her mouth. "no i don't mean that. has my heart turned that black since i came here. through all of the tuff times has my heart tuffened to?"

sango was watching kagome from afar. miroku had finally woken u and was standing next to sango.
"i feel deep sympathy for kagome and inuyasha." miroku said calmly.
"what!?! how could you feel sympathy for that jerk!?!" sango yelled at a voice that scared miroku but didn't even enter kagome's ears. inuyasha herd it though. inuyasha walked up behind them with a sorrowful look on his face.
"i'm sorry you feel that way. i guess i'll just go on with out you all so no one else is burdoned by me." inuyasha said as he walked away.

about ten minutes after inuyasha walked away koga came over to kagome. "koga!" kagome said looking up in suprise.
"i just wanted to tell you i know what happened with you and mutt face and if you ever need some one to hold you i'll be there, ok?" koga said odly in a sympathedic voice.
"but how do you-" kagome was about to asked when she felt koga's finger on her lip.
"that's not important now. all that matters is that i'm here if you need me ok." koga said, not noticing inuyasha was watching them.
"yo koga what the hell are you doing?!" inuyasha yelled coming up to them.
"listen mutt face. i'm just picking up the pieces that you so easely dropped."
"why you!" inuyasha said getting tense and lunging for koga.
"inuyasha sit!"
"eh! why do you do that when i'm trying to fight for you?" inuyasha said a little hurt, annoyed, and mostly angry.
"because maybe i don't want someone to fight for me all the time. maybe i want someone to hold me in their arms and tell me i matter. maybe i want someone like koga to pic up the pieces after someone like you breaks my heart inuyasha!" kagome said furiously as she walked away. inuyasha got up and grabbed her arm.
"kagome?" kagome swung around and started beating inuyasha's chest.
"you did this. you brought it upon yourself. inuyasha... I HATE YOU!" kagome said running off with the jewel shards. kagome finally reatched the well. she turned around and yelled "inuyasha you're choosing a women made of earth and clay who wants you dead over me! you want to go to hell and be tortured for eiturnity just to be with kikyo. you're leaving me defensless, and it's not my body that is defenseless bacause i have my friends but you're leaving my heart defenseless. koga was just trying to help and you pused him away. inuyasha this is my life and i don't want you in it anymore!!!" kagome said as she saw that inuyasha was almost to her. she jumped into the well just as inuyasha went to reach for her.
"kagome... i wasn't going to leave... i was going to stay with you... i love you" inuyasha whispered as some tears dropped down the well after the girl.

kagome ran upstairs to her room and cried for the next 3 hours. when she sat up her face was red and so were her eyes. her head was spinning as she fainted into her pillow and slept.
