Troubled Thoughts

Chapter 2: Go to Her

Knock, knock, and knock. "Kagome.", Souta opened her door slightly to poke his head through. To his dismay, Kagome was still sleeping with the sheets entwined between her legs and arms. He stepped quietly over to her bed and stood before her. He lowers his head so that it was right in front of her face.

"KAGOME, WAKE UP!", Souta shouted in her ear.

"Ahh!"

The once sleeping Kagome was now face first on the ground. She quickly got up. Her mood going from calm to anger in seconds. "What did you do that for, Souta?", she practically screamed at him. "Kagome, it snowed last night, and there's at least 6 inches on the ground. Please come out and play with me?", he asked her with the puppy dogface.

'How could I ever say no to that kawaii face? I won't be a kid forever so I might as well.' "Sure", she said happily. "Now go and let me put on some clothes."

"Okay. When you get outside you have to come and find me ok?"

"All right I will."

She went into the bathroom and brushed her teeth and combed her hair. She then proceeded to go to her room. Once there she changed out of her pjs and threw them in the laundry basket. She went over to her dresser and pulled out some pants, sweaters, socks, and underwear. After 10 minutes of getting dress, she headed downstairs and out the door.

Kagome was wearing sweatpants and over them snow pants, two pairs of socks, a shirt, a sweater over that, and then a coat. She also was wearing snow boots, two pairs of gloves, a scarf and earmuffs. She looked like a giant, walking marshmallow.

Once outside Kagome lifted her head to glance at the sky. The sky was a dull gray, slowing but surely the snow was falling. At times it quickened, but returned back to its normal pace. The young miko closed her eyes and then began to start spinning in circles. She started off by going slow, but then progressed to go faster. She opened her eyes and everything was flashing by her so fast. Because she lost her focus on her feet, she tripped and fell, plopping into the snow on her backside. She stayed like that for a few minutes until.

BAM!

Before she even had time to react, Souta threw a snowball at Kagome's face when she was just sitting in the snow.

"Why you little baka, your gonna pay for that!", she screamed and began chasing after him.

"Uh oh." After seeing Kagome get up, Souta decided to run like there was no tomorrow. He headed towards the backyard, but she was to fast for him. Before he turned the corner, Kagome tackled him to the ground. She straddled him and began to shove snow in his face.

"Now were even!"

"Gees Kagome, it was just a snowball."

"Well, you didn't have to throw it right in my face!"

"But it was funny! The look on your face was priceless!"

"Ha-ha, very funny Souta. Now I'm going in. Don't stay out here to long."

"K. Bye."

Kagome walked up the steps into the shrine and stepped inside. She closed the door behind her and started to take off all her clothes and she threw them to the side. She headed upstairs to her room. Once there, she opened the door, closed it behind her and walked straight to her bed, and sat down on it She then started singing a song she wrote just yesterday when she came home.

*I still recall every summer night like it was yesterday.

The time could never end and my friends were family.

Nothing mattered more than the loyalty we had.

Now I'm a world away from everything we shared.

I had something better waiting ahead.

I try to take control of my heart.

I had something better, but I'll tear it down and I'll tape it up by my own design.

I fall. Bring back the days.

Three story parking lot.

The air is never dry.

As the city falls asleep days bleed into the night.

The table set the stage for a life of memories, but I'm a world away from everything.

I fall apart as time passes by.

I fall apart but the memories never die.

I still recall every summer night.

It seems like yesterday, but I'm still a world away.*

Silent tears were now streaming after she finished singing the song. Unnoticed to her, her okaa-san was standing right by the door. She was going to knock and talk to Kagome, but heard her sing and decided to listen. She now knew the only thing that could ever make Kagome happy. But could she really make her daughters dreams come true?

It was the day before Christmas, and Kagome's mother wanted everything to be perfect for Christmas tomorrow. She was hoping somebody would come by so she could talk to them.

* Feudal Era *

Miroku walked over to Inuyasha, who was currently sitting under the God tree. It was obvious what Inuyasha was thinking about. More like whom he was thinking about.

"Why don't you just go to her time and give her some flowers for this Christmas thing."

"Nobody asked you, pervert."

"Well, I can tell just by the way you've been acting all week. You miss her, so just go visit her for the day. Or better yet, confess to her how you truly feel. Put her fear to rest."

"What feelings? I have no clue what you're talking about. And what fears would Kagome have?", he asked with concern written all over his face.

"Well," began Miroku, "Think about it. You always compare her to Kikyo. Would you like it, if you were always compared to somebody who looks like you? You make her feel bad and probably convinced her that you still love Kikyo."

"No.", he said giving the monk an icy glare.

"So, just go to her and tell her. What do you have to lose?"

"Well what happens if.. Wait, why the hell am I taking advice from you!", he shouted.

"I was only trying to help. Gees. Maybe if you get some action, you won't be angry all the time."

Whack. Miroku fell to the ground unconscious after being smacked upside the head by Sango's boomerang.

"Just go visit her Inuyasha. I'm sure she'll be very happy and surprised. I bet she misses you to.", she said sweetly.

"Feh. I'm going for a walk I'll back later."

Sango laughed to herself, knowing that he wasn't going for a walk. But he was going to see Kagome and he was heading straight towards the direction of the bone eaters well. She turned away and headed into Keade's hut.
