~hey I know I shouldn't start another story when I'm behind on my other
ones (I have like six other ones) but I just couldn't resist. I got the
inspiration to write this when I was watching the 'lake of the evil water
god' episode. When Inu Yasha was talking about this guy's kid it gave me an
idea I won't tell you exactly what it inspired me to write about cause that
would give it away. I tell you later. ~
Kagome looked up at the night's sky. It had been three years since she had first meet Inu Yasha. She glanced over at her half demon companion. He was sitting next to the fire, gazing at the shicon no tama. It was finally complete, a sphere of beautiful pinkish creamy colors that shimmered in the firelight. They had beaten Naraku and what a horrible battle it had been. It had left them all exhausted. Sango had gone off to a nearby lake to wash off and Miroku had mysteriously disappeared soon afterwards. Shippo was no where to be seen either which was unusually for the little fox demon, who usually hung around Kagome. She wasn't worried about him really though. He had been hanging out a lot lately with Miroku, so he was probably off with him.
She got up off the ground and dusted off her short green skirt. Inu Yasha gazed after her as she walked slowly into the shadows of the forest and away from the circular glow of the fire. He was always watching her. He wanted to make sure she was safe. He was going to protect her at any cost. He silently followed after her like a shadow.
Kagome stopped in the middle of the clearing. She didn't know what she was going to do. She knew that she would have to return to her own time soon, but in a way she didn't want to. She didn't know if she would ever come back, or if she ever could come back since Inu Yasha would undoubtedly use the jewel to become a full demon. What would happen to her now? She started to cry, tears dripping slowly down her face as she faced the cruel reality.
Inu Yasha watched from the bushes and he felt his heart squeeze painfully at the sight of her tears. Before he couldn't stand it when she cried, and not just because it annoyed him. He would never admit it but it hurt him a great deal when she was sad. He stepped out of the shadows silently to grab onto her shoulder.
Kagome jumped when she felt something touch her shoulder, but when she turned around she saw it was just Inu Yasha. "Inu Yasha..I.." She tried to think of what to say while she tried to wipe the tears from her eyes. She knew that Inu Yasha hated it when she cried. But she was surprised when instead of yelling at her to stop crying her pulled her closer into a hug.
He hadn't hugged her a whole lot or anything. The most memorable time that he had hugged her had been after he had been badly injured by sesshomaru and he had wanted her to go back to her own time for good. Of course he had stolen her jewel shard and shoved her into the well, but only because he wanted her to be safe. And well he wasn't very good at showing his feelings.
Inu Yasha pulled her close and brushed his fingers through her raven-black hair. She smelled so annoyingly beautiful he just wanted to bury himself in her scent.
"What's the matter, Kagome? You can tell me." Inu Yasha said holding her face so that he could look her in the eye. And what hauntingly beautiful eyes did she have. She gazed up at him. How could she ask him about this? He would just get annoyed at her. She wanted so bad to tell him how much she loved him sometimes, like at this moment staring into his golden amber eyes. She knew that at sometimes he could be the most stubborn, arrogant, selfish, immature guy out there, but at other times he could be so sweet. He just hid it all inside, afraid of what other people would think.
"Inu Yasha..what are we going to do now that we found all the jewel fragments? I have to return to my own time. Graduation is coming really soon, and then I'll be off to college, but what about you Inu Yasha."
Inu Yasha's eyes widened as he heard what she was saying. She was trying to tell him that when she left, this time she might not come back.
Kagome started to cry again as she realized what else she would miss. "I won't really get to see you or the others at all. Everything will just go back to normal, like it never happened. And I'll go on and live my life like a normal person. That's what I'm afraid of, that I'll never get to be with you anymore." There, Kagome had told him. She had told him that she was afraid to lose him. Then maybe he would get the hint.
Inu Yasha furrowed his eyebrows. "Then why don't you just stay here?!?"
Kagome sighed annoyed. "Inu Yasha I just can't stay here. I have a family, I have responsibility. I have things to do!" Inu Yasha just never seemed to understand, did he?
Inu Yasha knew that she had to go back, but before she did there was something that Inu Yasha had been longing to say to her.
"Kagome, I need you to know that..." He looked at her beautiful face as she stared up at him listening intently. He hoped she would take this the right way. "That I love you.."
Kagome didn't move, she just stared up at him utterly surprised. Had she just heard that? Did he actually say that he loved her?
Inu Yasha started to get annoyed when she didn't answer. "Well aren't you gonna say anything!"
Kagome snapped out of her reverie. "Inu Yasha..I love you too." Inu Yasha felt his heart swell as he heard those words.
