JJKagome: This is my first one so don't be too hard on me. PLEASE!!! Okay enough playing. On with my first story and first chapter for all its worth. Oh and I don't own Inu-Yasha. Rumiko Takahashi does. (smug smile)

Inu-Yasha: It's her first. So be nice to her.

Kagome: You're one to talk. You act nice to her but not to me. And we're supposed to be together. WAAA (crying anime style) Stupid jackass/bastard (hits Inu-Yasha over the head with a mallet)

JJKagome: Inu-Yasha? Are you being mean to Kagome again? (menancing eyes)

Inu-Yasha: NO!!!! Anyway, let's start the story!!

*...* = Thoughts "..." = Saying

(...) = I'm talking to you

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"INU-YASHA! Where are you? I'll say the S-word! Come out! Now!" Kagome was really mad now. Not only does he leave her to go to that dead bitch woman (come back to life) Kikyo. He leaves her with a bunch of junk that's HIS. And they are from his OLD house. Kagome was getting really ticked and pissed off (Just like me).

Inu-Yasha jumped down from the sky. Landing silently behind her, annoyed and ears flat on his head. He judged her with eyes that said "Annoyance, Alert, alert"

"What do you want, bitch? You don't have to threaten me you know. You just have to shout. Though don't shout very loud." He sounded annoyed for some reason. *Annoyed? What did I do? * Kagome thought. There was a sound of hurt in the way that he spoke and moved and..... was that love in his eyes? (Love? I didn't know that they moved so fast)

Kagome couldn't figure it out in time. Or anytime for that matter. *That's what you get. For having a demon or a half-demon around. You never know what they are thinking*

"Next time you want to go get your things, take it yourself. And don't call me a bitch. My name is Kagome. Ka-go-me. Call me by my name or don't talk to me at all. ARG!" She turned around and fumed silently (and mentally), yelling at herself in her head, very harshly.

*I shouldn't have to be so hard on him. But, sometimes he leaves me no choice. At times, he can act sweet, but other times, or all the time for what its worth, he is a real pain in the a$$* She was so caught up in her argument or conversation that she didn't hear or notice Inu-Yasha coming up to her. When she felt arms snaking around her waist, she blushed furiously and stammered, quietly.

"Inu.... Inu-Yasha, what are you doing? Why are you hugging me?" *and what has gotten in to you? * Inu-Yasha was, at the same time, wondering the same thing. But she asked a question so he had to answer.

(They must be very good friends. Mwahahahaha. Sorry. I just finished a sandwich. And I'm very hyper. Anyway, let's stop talking about me and my sandwich, back to the story. LOOK AT THE NEXT WORDS. NOW!!!!!)

He sighed before saying, "I don't really know why, but ... I want you to know. That you made me care, love, and protect you like no one else did. Not even Kikyo. Yamate, onegai, please don't cry, just listen. Ashiteru Kagome."

*Chikushoo, I can't believe that I just said that. In front of her no doubt. What is wrong with me? Why am I always like this when she is with me? She makes me feel complete. And she doesn't care what I look like. She likes me for who I am, a hanyou, not like Kikyo* (She just wanted him to be human for her)

Kagome has never been so shocked in her entire previous and present life. *Did Inu-Yasha just tell me that he loved me? Should I tell him my feelings? Will he return them? Or is he just lying? * She almost cried at that thought.

She felt Inu-Yasha move his hands, but Kagome latched onto them quickly. Inu-Yasha was surprised by her reaction. When she didn't respond at once, he felt his heart breaking into pieces.

But Kagome just simply said, "Itsumo Ashiteru! I always have, and always will no matter what happens. Even if I have to wait forever." She was crying by this point. She wanted to know if what he said was true. Really true, that it was from his heart and not from his mind. (Isn't that touching? sob.... sob.... sniff. I am such a dramatic. I love to do drama.)

Oh, Inu-Yasha hated when any girl cried because it hurt his ears but he really hated it when Kagome cried and that he was the cause of it. But, to put plainly, he turned her around so fast that her head spun, and, in a blink of an eye, kissed her on the lips. Kagome was so surprised. She gasped (inwardly) at the taste of Inu-Yasha.

He tasted of rain, storm, earth, and of his home forest. (If they even have a taste at all) She felt like the most perfect girl right now at this moment. She didn't want this to end. What she didn't know was that Inu- Yasha felt the same.

But, unknown to Inu-Yasha and Kagome, someone did want this to end. It was Kikyo, the revived miko (remember that certain episode-Kikyo's stolen ashes). She was so angry, along with the betrayal from before, she shot a single powered arrow at Kagome. She thought that it would miss because of Inu-Yasha, but then, it hit. Directly in the place her heart would have been if she had turned around.

Kagome gasped and groaned in pain, then uttered one word in question, "Kikyo?" before becoming unconscious, and falling.

She wasn't dead yet, but because of the powered arrow she was on the verge of death. Then something she said clicked in Inu-Yasha's mind.

"Kikyo?!?! What the fuckin hell are you doing here? And just what did you do to Kagome?" He said this in the voice of a lost love. The way that sounded to Kikyo made her smirk on the outside but cringe in the inside. (Smirk with happiness, but cringe with the sound of his voice)

"You promised your life to me and then turn your back and say that you love that reincarnation. And whose reincarnation is that? Mine!!!!! (Jeez. don't blow a vein) How low can you get, two-timer? Do you want everyone to start calling you a two-timer, for the rest of your fuckin life? Because I WILL tell everybody what you did, and I'm an eyewitness so don't bother lying. HA!"

Inu-Yasha was really and I mean really pissed off now. Not only is his Kagome (his? or mine?) on the verge of death, but also KIKYO had to rub it in that he already said that he would accompany her into Hell.

Smirking after remembering something, he exclaimed, "Sure, I did say that. But you also forgot that I did this because I had to owe you. I could also just forget the whole deal and just let you go to death ALONE. Alone, like you have been for the last couple years or so. What do you think about that? Do you want to be alone like I was before I met you, 500 years ago? If it weren't for Urasue, you wouldn't be here at all. And you wouldn't have ruined the perfect moment for me, " he was yelling by this time. (I didn't know that he could yell. I only thought that he could bitch about things and stuff)

Kikyo just had a blank look on her face but her mind was quivering with renewed fear of the half-demon. She tried to calm him down by saying, " We can finally be together like we were supposed to be 50 years ago." She should know better then to say that to his face. (I love me. And I love my plots)

"You would be happy that Kagome is dead, wouldn't you? You know that she did what you could never accomplish in your lifetime. You're JEALOUS!!! " He was crying out his grief.

When he howled out to the sky, Kagome stirred and opened her eyes. There were tears in it because she had heard every word that Inu-Yasha and Kikyo had said. She was touched that he would defend her and hurt that Inu-Yasha had done that to them.

"Inu-Yasha. Why? Why did you do that to me and to Kikyo? Do I have to make you pick which one you want? I really hope not!" She whispered harshly but quietly.

Inu-Yasha was so happy that she wasn't dead yet because she was so quiet, that he hugged her too hard that she coughed and hacked. But she was happy, really happy.

Kikyo just couldn't believe it. Inu-yasha had just chosen her reincarnation over the real thing. What was she going to do about this? The two were in such a happy moment that they didn't hear the noise coming from the forest around them. Kikyo didn't have that great a hearing at the moment because she was caught in her own sorrow and grief.

When the person charged out of the bushes behind Kikyo and put the dagger that it had in it's hand to her throat, Inu-yasha and Kagome jumped. When the cloud of dirt cleared away, Kagome was surprised and ashamed at whom the person was.

"Why it can't be? It can't be you? You were dead a long long time ago!" Inu- yasha tried to ask whom the person was. Kagome opened her mouth, closed it, opened it again, (like a fish) then croaked out, "That is...
