Chapter 3: I have to go

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kouga grabbed Kagome by the arm causing her to look at him. He smiled with an affectionate look in his eyes and then forced a intense kiss onto her lips. After Kagome figured out what was happening she pulled him away from her.

"What do you think that you are doing?" Kagome asked with hate blossoming in her eyes.

"I love you Kagome...." He said with a dream like stare that Kagome knew too well.

"KIKYOU! YOU BITCH! I MEAN TAKE THE SPELL OFF NOW!!!!"

"Fine but I was having so much fun...." Kikyou's voice stated through out the wind.

"What? Where am I? Kagome...hey...what are you doing here?" Kouga asked as he looked at the tempered girl and noticed how she then went back to her usual self but put a creepy smile across her face. "What?"

"Nothing, it is just that you were under a spell and you kissed me....too bad you don't remember. Well, got to go." Kagome stated with a taunting voice as she walked off out of sight.

'What! We kissed? Why couldn't I just remember! This isn't fair!!!' Kouga screamed in his mind before leaving to find his friends.

Kagome walked happily inside the hut and sat down. Everyone stopped and looked at her with a 'what-the-hell-are-you-so-giddy-about' kind of look on their faces.

"What are you so happy about wench?" Inuyasha growled as he smelt Kouga's scent.

"Oh, nothing. I just don't ever have to wonder what it feels like to kiss Kouga anymore...man was that amazing." Kagome said with a teasing expression.

"You...and...him...kissed?...But...and...how..."

"Inuyasha, what is wrong with you?"

"Nothing, um, Kagome? Can I see you outside?"

"Yea, sure."

Kagome and the stunned hanyou stepped outside and once Inuyasha thought that they were far enough to not be heard they stopped.

"Kagome...I'm truly sorry for what I did...with kissing you and all." Inuyasha said with a blush being held back.

"You...you remember?" Kagome asked shocked.

"Yea. Why?"

"You are the only one who does."

"Really?"

"Yea, but don't worry about it. I got...someone...to take the spell off of me."

"Was it Kikyou?"

"Yea."

"How did you get her to take it off?"

"Well, I told her that it was wrong because your heart belongs to her."

"Kagome...I want you to know that she isn't the only one who holds my heart."

"Huh..."

"You have a huge piece of it Kagome. I know that this is kind of a lame thing to say but it is true. Of course I love Kikyou but I want you to know that I will always think of you as a sister to me."

"A sister?"

"Yea."

"Good. Then it is settled."

"What is settled?"

"I'm leaving."

"Leaving?!"

"Yea. I can't live like this."

"Live like wh..."

Before Inuyasha had a chance to say anything she kissed him and pushed away with a tear running down her cheek and walked away until no one in the world but herself and her hanyou could hear what she was saying.

"I can't live a lie. I love you Inuyasha. You big jerk, I love you and I want you to be happy so I will leave and you can stay with Kikyou." She whispered and continued walking in the direction of the well.

"Kagome...I don't want to disappoint you and I know that you can't hear me but what I said a minute ago was a huge lie. I love you with all of my heart. I just didn't know that you felt that way." Inuyasha said as he walked in the opposite direction and cursed himself for not chasing after her.

Kagome climbed out of the well and a tear slipped down her right cheek. 'He didn't come and get me...of course not, he loves Kikyou. He must think that I am a weirdo or something.' Kagome said as more tears fell. She then looked to see that she was alone at her house. She quickly ran inside to see a note that said that her mom, Souta, and grandpa where gone for two weeks on a trip to the mountains.

"Great, and now I will be alone the hole time." Kagome said and fell to her bed and started sobbing uncontrollably.

'Why didn't you come get me? Why do you love her? Why can't I get over you? Why do I have to love you? Why aren't you here?' Kagome thought and turned over on her back.

"WHY!!!" Kagome yelled and stood up to find a picture of Inuyasha in a green frame that she had taken when he was sleeping.

Kagome picked up the picture and looked up at the picture with hate and sorrow and noticed her window opened. Kagome then glanced back at the picture and threw it out the window to hear a smash outside. Kagome quickly regretted throwing the picture and raced down to retrieve the picture. She stood outside now looking at the broken pieces on the ground.

"Why?" Kagome asked as she looked down at the picture.

Inuyasha was sulking in a tree when he suddenly he knew that there was a demon nearby and chased after it. He ran until he got to the demon, if it had a jewel shard then it would all be over. The Shikon no Tama would be complete. (A/N: They had already won the fight with Naraku three weeks before Kagome left.) Inuyasha stood there watching the demon trying to attack a woman and then he found him knowing the woman's face. It was Kikyou. Inuyasha ran to her side quickly and blocked an attack that came toward Kikyou. Kikyou looked on with shock as Inuyasha fought the demon. Soon afterward the demon was dead and a jewel shard lay on the ground. Kikyou slowly walked over to the shard and purified it. She then went to Inuyasha's side.

"Is that the last piece?" Inuyasha asked with a grumpy voice.

"Yes. Now we can wish for you and me to be together for the rest of time." Kikyou said with starry eyes.

"I thought you hated me."

"When I saw you defending me, I knew, that....I love you still."

"You still love me?"

"Hai."

The jewel shard slowly lifted out of Kikyou's hand and disappeared. Inuyasha knew that if he didn't get to the well then he would never see Kagome again so he left Kikyou and raced to the well. Inuyasha sprang out of the well and raced to Kagome's house. He quickly ran inside, not caring if anyone was there or not. Kagome's door was open and he peered inside to see her and the jewel. The jewel was floating in mid-air then began talking.

"What do you wish our beloved Kagome?" The jewel asked with a scratchy voice.

"I wish that...Inuyasha will have a happy life with the one he loves until the end of time." Kagome said with a tear running down her cheek.

"And what do you wish my lord?"

Kagome was confussed. She had no clue who the jewel was talking to.



"I wish to always live with the one I love as well." Inuyasha said causing Kagome to stare up at him.

"Kagome has already made that wish my lord. Please wish something else." The jewel said with sincerity.

"Yes. Well, I wish for Kikyou to rest in peace."

"As you wish."

The shard soon faded back to the floor. Kagome looked with tears in her eyes.

"So are you going to leave now? You have to leave, you just killed yourself when you said for Kikyou to rest in peace, you are supposed to be with the on you love forever." Kagome stated as her eyes fell to the floor.

"So I heard, but the thing is that you have the person I love mixed up." Inuyasha said as Kagome's head looked up and into his eyes searching desprately for answers.

"What are you talking about? You love Kikyou. You couldn't possibly love someone else."

"Yes, I can. I love you. I know I should have told you but I was afraid and uncertain about things. Either way it plays out...I love you."

"Inuyasha it isn't nice to play cruel jokes on people so get out of my house! I want you gone back to the feudal era! Now!"

She bust out in tears. She just wouldn't believe it. She then shoved the hanyou outside the door and slamed it behind her. Soon after she fell asleep on her bed with a tear soaked face. The next morning was sunny and bright. On days like these Kagome would usually go to the God Tree so she did. When she reached the tree she touched the place that Inuyasha had been pinned to all those years ago.

"Inuyasha..." Kagome whispered onto the tree only to hear some branches break a little.

"What." Inuyasha said as he jumped out of the tree.

"What are still doing here? I thought that you would be gone by now."

"No. I'm not going to leave you. I meant it when I said that I loved you. I won't leave without you. Even if you end up old with someone else I will always be here with you."

"Inuyasha...that is so...sweet. I love you too, but, I don't want to get hurt so promise me that this isn't a dream or something."

"Kagome. This is not a dream. I am here telling you the truth and I will never hurt you again. I love you."

"Inuyasha!"

Kagome quickly jumped into the hanyou's arms and kissed him with all her might. Inuyasha returned the affection with just as much strength. They slowly pulled away with a smile before Kagome and Inuyasha went hand in hand to the well. They were happy and free of all their pains...or, were they?
