Chapter 7: Talking With Sango And Kaede
As Kagome and Sango were walking through the forest on a trail, Kagome couldn't help thinking of Inuyasha.
'I can't believe I had actually thought that he would want to hurt me. I'm such a fool.' She thought. "Hmmmm..." Kagome whined out loud.
"What's the matter, Kagome?" Sango asked her.
"What? Oh... nothing really. I was just thinking..." Kagome trailed off.
"About what?" Sango asked. They then reached the hot spring. Kagome set down her bags. They began undressing.
"Well, when Inuyasha and I were inside the hut alone when you guys had left, well, we were really close together and..." Kagome trailed off. The two sat in the hot spring. Kagome winced when the hot water hit her blood clotted scrapes and wounds.
"And?" Sango stated. They leaned against a rock.
"And we almost, well, kissed." Kagome stated, a strong blush crept along her face.
"Is that what is wrong?" Sango questioned.
"Not really..." Kagome said. "The fact is that, I would have been okay with it. But Inuyasha was hesitant about it. So, he backed away and we didn't say anything about it." Kagome looked down and began fiddling with the water.
"Really? That's quite different." Sango commented.
"I can't help thinking that he didn't want to kiss me because he thinks I like Koga." Kagome stated.
"Why would he think that you like Koga?" Sango questioned nosily.
"Well, a of couple days ago, Koga visited when we were all asleep. I could sense the jewel shards so I awakened. Then Inuyasha did. We met up with Koga outside." Kagome paused. "When Koga went to leave, he kissed me on the cheek."
"Really?" Sango asked. Kagome nodded. "I think you should talk to him then. After the hot spring, we can clean you up, and then you can go talk to him." Sango smiled at her.
"Thanks Sango. You're a big help." Kagome said cheerfully.
Meanwhile, Inuyasha opened the flap to the back room. Kaede was sitting on the floor, mixing some sort of medicine for Kagome to drink to heal her wounds.
"Hey, hag, I gotta talk to you!" Inuyasha told her. "Now!"
"Calm yourself, Inuyasha. What ails ye?" Kaede motioned for Inuyasha to come sit in front of her. Inuyasha did as so.
"It's about Kagome." Inuyasha stated. "And me."
"About what I wonder?" Kaede looked up at the half demon.
"Well gee, I don't know!" Inuyasha said sarcastically. "Have you looked at our auras lately?"
"Ahh... yes. Would you like to know what colors ye both have?" Kaede responded.
"I think I have an idea what they are." He said, looking to the ground.
"Of course you do. You can tell can't ye? Peach. You both of a glow of pale peach among yourselves. You both love each other very much, now don't ye?" Kaede stated. Inuyasha said nothing. A blush spread across of his cheeks. "When you two are next to one another, your auras merge, and become a bright pink. Pink means you two are soul mates."
"What?" Inuyasha said.
"You and Kagome are meant for each other, Inuyasha." Kaede commented. "You must go talk to her, immediately." Just then, Kagome walked inside the back room.
"Inuyasha, I need to talk with you." Kagome said, blushing. Inuyasha nodded and followed her out of the hut.
