Chapter 5
"Why did you come for me. Inuyasha? I thought Kikyou's here, you don't need me anymore." Kagome says sadly.
"Kagome, believe it or not, I can't let you be hurt, ok?
"I'm not, Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru treated me well."
"Right sure, Sesshoumaru?"
Kagome suddenly becomes very angry. "Sit boy!" Inuyasha collapses onto the ground. "Now listen carefully, you idiotic dog boy! Just because you chose Kikyou over me, that doesn't mean nobody can love me. And your brother happened to be a lot more mature than you are, tell you the truth, I've come to like him a lot, or maybe I love him! So just shut it!"
'I can't believe I just said that. Now he's going to be real mad." Kagome pants heavily.
Much to Kagome's surprise, Inuyasha keeps his head down, she can't see his face, but she can feel he's breathing heavily.
"He means more to you than me.?"
"Ehh." Kagome signs, sitting down beside him. "Inuyasha, look, Everyone is a semicircle of different sizes, and when you find another semicircle that makes a perfect circle with you, you find your true love."
"Say it, you love him, don't play trick on me."
"Oh, well, see your love is Kikyou, I deserve someone to love and love me too. No matter who he is, Sesshoumaru, or anyone else, there has to be a person for me. Does that make sense?"
"But why him, why Sesshoumaru? Are you trying to prove something to me? I mean I can't do anything for you, because I'll always belong to Kikyou, but he's my evil half brother."
"Inuyasha, he may appear to be evil, but he's not. He has a good side, he possesses a good heart. He doesn't want to show it because he's the youkai lord, he thinks he has to be cold and cool."
"And I'm sorry to say this, but he's a lot more sensitive than you are, even though he doesn't want people to see this."
"I'm glad you are happy with Kikyou now, and I hope you will feel the same way if I ever find my other perfect half."
Inuyasha jumps up and runs away into the deep forest. 'Maybe he'll have some sense in his head when he comes back.' Not knowing what to do, she wanders back to the village they are staying.
"Kagome-sama, are you going to be ok?" says Sango with a worried expression.
"I guess, but Inuyasha.I don't know, he's pretty mad about."
"About what, Kagome?"
"Sango.I think I'm in love with Sesshoumaru."
"What? Are we talking about the same Sesshoumaru?"
"It's just.these few days with him, I got to know the other side of him."
"Well, I don't want to jump into conclusion of him being a bad person, but are you sure?"
"He's a very caring and sensitive person, really."
"Are you sure.it's love?"
Silently, Kagome shakes her raven head. No, she isn't sure, she isn't sure at all.
Gracefully bend over, Sesshoumaru calls out to the deep cave.
"Shinato, it is me, Sesshoumaru."
A old looking dog demon slowly walks out at his calling. Unlike Sesshoumaru, he's rather small, but he also has a fluffy tail, though not as long as Sesshoumaru's. A torn piece of cloth over his body, leaning on the cave wall, he smiled at his young master.
"Well well well, if it isn't the handsome master of mine, love problem? Yeah, you are the right age."
Sesshoumaru frowns at the old demon's remark, he's always had the best nose, even now he's old, he can still smell the problem in the air.
"Umm, sharp nose as ever, huh?"
"Never mind my wrinkly nose, go straight to the reason you came here for."
After hearing the whole matter with Kagome, the old demon giggles softly. Sesshomaru is very annoyed by that. He's come for advice, not humoring the old servant of his father's. First time in his entire life, he didn't know what to do, and he just needs to talk things over with someone he trusts. Kagome's running away with Inuyasha made everything hard and confusing. Apparently she's still in love with his little brother, despite the fact he chose another woman. Also he would like to know, is a human girl really worth it?
"Sesshoumaru, listen to every word I say. You've always been a very smart youkai and you have a very clear head, but you always try to hide your emotions. You don't have to do that, you don't have to be so stubborn, at least not on this matter. If you are sure you love her, then that's all there is, that's all that matters. She loves you or not, you have to tell her this, take the risk for once on this, it'll be worth it, and you'll be glad you did that sooner or later. This matter has nothing to do with demon or human, I want you to know that, it has to do with love, and only love."
"So you are saying, I should go find her and tell her how I feel?"
"Go for it."
Still looking quite confused, Sesshoumaru turns and leaves the old demon.
"Stubborn pup, stubborn dog."
"Why did you come for me. Inuyasha? I thought Kikyou's here, you don't need me anymore." Kagome says sadly.
"Kagome, believe it or not, I can't let you be hurt, ok?
"I'm not, Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru treated me well."
