I'm still here

"Inuyasha, Is that what happened to you?" Kagome asked quietly. Inuyasha didn't answer, but turned away, *How can I tell her about all I've been through for just being what I am.* "Inuyasha..." she sighed sadly, getting her answer from his lack of giving her one.

***

I am a question to the world,

Not an answer to be heard,

or a moment that's held in your arms.

And what do you think you'd ever say?

I won't listen anyway:

You ignore me,

And I'll never be what you want me to be.

***

The pair continued walking in an uncomfortable silence. Inuyasha's thoughts drifted to Kikiyo. *Yet another that wanted me to be one or the other, not accepting for what I am. I had no control over it... I loved her, but she only wanted me to become a human for her, not to mention so she could be free of protecting the jewl. Did she realy love me in return? I never cared about what anybody else said, but for some reason I did when it came to her...*

***

And what do you think you'd understand?

I'm a boy, no i'm a man.

You can't take me and throw me away.

And how can you learn what's never shown?

Yeah, you stand here on your own.

They don't know me 'cause I'm not here.

***

As if sencing his change in thoughts, Kagome's did as well. *I bet thats why he's always a jerk. Other than his mother, thats what he was always shown. It's so sad, being a child all alone with cuel people like the ones that tormented Jenangi. No wonder he hate humans so much. youkai must have been worse, hating him for being part human. Poor Inuyasha...*

***

And I want a moment to be real,

Wanna touch things I don't feel,

Wanna hold on and feel I belong.

And how can the world want me to change,

They're the ones that stay the same.

They don't know me,

'Cause I'm not here.

***

Inuyasha broke the mutual silence, "I have never been accepted... by anyone, other then my mother." he spoke quitely.

***

And you see the things they never see

All you wanted, I could be

Now you know me, and I'm not afraid

And I wanna tell you who I am

Can you help me be a man?

They can't break me

As long as I know who I am

***

"In-Inuyasha? Is that how you feel?" she asked quitely, "I don't care if you're not demon or human... All I see is Inuyasha, not what you could be..." Inuyahsa felt his breath catch, that was not what he was expecting... *She thinks as me as me? not human or demon? just me? How can she accept me? she truly is amazing... I think,... I love her... Do I? As long as she is with me it dosn't matter.......* he thought to hiself.

***

And I want a moment to be real,

Wanna touch things I don't feel,

Wanna hold on and feel I belong.

And how can the world want me to change,

They're the ones that stay the same.

They can't see me,

But I'm still here.

***

*Why is he so Quite? that is so not like him... What is he thinking about?...* Kagome wondered.

***

They can't tell me who to be,

'Cause I'm not what they see.

And the world is still sleepin',

While I keep on dreamin' for me.

And their words are just whispers,

And lies that I'll never believe.

And I want a moment to be real,

Wanna touch things I don't feel,

Wanna hold on and feel I belong.

And how can they say i never change,

They're the ones that stay the same.

I'm the one now,

'Cause I'm still here.

***

"Thank you, Kagome...Will you stay with me?" he asked not looking at her. *Did he just ask what I thought he did? Of corse I would. I dont leave my friends, no matter how much they gett on my nurves...* she thought then answered, "Inuyasha, I'll never leave you side..." Inuyasha smiled looking at her the first time though the conversation. "And I'll never leave yours." he finished.

***

I'm the one,

'Cause I'm still here.

I'm still here.

I'm still here.

I'm still here.

AN:Sweet ne?
