Two weeks later...
Kagome had her eyes closed as Inuyasha was right behind her leading her through something. "Just a few more seconds..." she heard him say. She continued to walk not knowing where she was going, or see...
"Inuyasha?" Kagome had her hands sticking out hoping she wouldn't bump into anything. "What are you doing?"
"I got a surprise for you... Just keep walking..." Inuyasha saw Kagome raising a hand close to her face. "And don't take off the blindfold." She snapped her hand to her side.
They continued to walk as Kagome's feet started to feel like she was walking on shattered leaves and then on some gravel. She was excited what the surprise that Inuyasha was going to give her and couldn't wait to see what he was planning. She halted as Inuyasha pulled in some force on her shoulders ushering her to stop. "Wait here." Was all she heard.
Kagome smiled as he heard him fall and said he was okay and got back up. Then there were no more sounds for a few seconds. She got a little worried thinking that he ditched her.
"Okay!" Kagome sighed in relief as he yelled. "Open it!"
Kagome removed the blindfold and was frozen in her spot. She was so speechless. Flowers surrounded her! White roses all the way down to the daisies that were at the far end of the corner. How did he know that it was Kagome's dream to be ambushed by flowers??? She thought she was going to cry but fought back the tears as Inuyasha was in front of her grinning from ear to ear.
"You like it?" He asked as he turned to look at the flowers. "It took me a while to have these planted here but I manage to get some help. But the-"
"No..." he turned to look at Kagome as she whispered and her eyes shadowed from her bangs.
"N-no...?" He was worried she didn't like it for real. "What do you mean no?"
Her eyes looked up at his amber eyes as he looked kind of saddened. She wrapped her arms around his neck feeling his arms go around her waist. "I don't like it! I love it!" She broke into tears no matter how much she fought it not to come down her cheeks.
"Ka... Kagome..." He didn't want her to cry but pulled the hug into a deeper embrace inhaling her sweet scent on her neck. He was so sure about her what he truly feels for her and didn't want to let her go. He gulped as he was a bit nervous what he's about to say. "Kagome?"
Kagome backed a little to see his face. He wiped away her tears with the back of his hand and studied her beauty as the sun was going down slowly that the brightness somehow revolved around her as if she were taking the sun's place.
"I love you..." he whispered.
Kagome stood still at her spot as he was waiting for a response. Should she say it back and would she mean it? Of course she would!
"I love you too... Inuyasha..."
They started to kiss passionately both agreeing that they were both scared to let each other go...
¤¤¤
Ring...
Kagome heard the phone ring but didn't fully wake up to answer it. She was just too tired to.
Ring...
She heard it ring the second time but her mother answered it.
What time was it? 3:46 AM
Holy crap. Who would call that early? She pulled the covers over herself and tried hard to go back to sleep since she did feel a little sleepy. Just the thought she could ever go back to sleep her mother slammed the door open and yelled. "Kagome! Come on, you have an appointment!"
"Uh... what?"
¤¤¤
What was going on? Kagome forgot whatever happened. She opened her eyes and everything was white. People were around her gathered around her and she was scared. She wanted Inuyasha. She wanted him to hold her and scare off these monsters that were touching her everywhere. She felt so slow like her body wouldn't respond to her. It was just irritating like she wanted to just get up and leave but it was hard for her to even see things. She felt a sting go through her upper right arm and felt really drowsy.
"That's it, Kagome... go to sleep..." She heard a very familiar voice say. She shook her head really slowly.
"Miro.." She couldn't continue and blacked out.
¤¤¤
She sat up and looked all around her. Sweating like crazy as she was going insane. She was breathing hard as he heart pumped full speed of excitement. That wasn't suppose to happen she could get a heart atta...
She touched her chest and exposed her breast seeing stitches long as her hand in the middle of her chest. But she didn't feel any pain. That's what scared her most and now she knows for sure that she had a heart transplant.
She removed the tubes that were connected with her arms and jumped right out of bed feeling nothing like she could just jump and scream for joy and not get scared of having any difficulties.
She spotted her mother at the corner sleeping and rushed to her waking her up. "Mom!"
Her mother opened her eyes looking at Kagome with a smile. "Kagome-dear, should you still be in bed?"
"I don't know! I feel like a new person!" Kagome smiled. She laughed and twirled. What was this? This was instant and nervous breaking but it didn't matter. She didn't care she was just doing something that she's always wanted to do. She jumped and ran around the room. "Look! I'm not feeling anything!"
Her mother nodded standing next to her, "Kagome, calm down... It's been three days you should rest."
"Mom, how can I rest- Whoa, three days?" Kagome stopped herself. That long? She hoped Inuyasha wouldn't worry for not contacting him. But she was at the hospital and plus he's working today maybe she'll see him like she use to do.
"I thought I heard someone having a party..." Miroku entered with a laugh as he entered the room. "And you didn't even plan to invite me... Tisk, tisk, Kagome..."
Kagome rolled her eyes and ran to him giving him a hug. "Thank you! Look what you done!"
"You're welcome Miss Kagome I'm honored to help you." He hugged her back as he looked over at Mrs Higurashi. "I'd appreciate it if you head home and rest now, Mrs Higurashi, you've been here ever since..."
She nodded placing a kiss on Kagome. "I'll be here tomorrow. You be good for Dr Houshi." She looked over at Miroku, "And you better keep your dirty hands to yourself around my daughter or I'll rip them off."
"Uh, yes ma'am!" Miroku shyly waved his hands in the air. "Keeping hands to myself!"
As soon as she left Kagome walked over to the window and opened it and inhaled the sweet scent.
"I'm in a different room... Different view... This one's better though..." Kagome sighed with a small smile looking over at Miroku.
He looked stiffened and a bit worried. He was going to start off with his bad and good ideas thing again and wasn't sure which one he should start off. The whole revolved slow and weak as Kagome was worried. He was giving that face that always leads to bad things.
"Miroku? Is there something the matter?" Kagome walked up to him staring in his violet eyes. "You look a bit pale."
He put on a small fake smile trying to make him look like nothing was the matter. She was staring at him with concern and now isn't sure if he ever wants to go through with this now. He cleared his throat and avoided her eyes, looking at a picture that hung high on the walls. "Well, I do have some bad news and good news..."
Kagome nodded. "Okay, what's ever new?"
"But these would shock you and put you in pain. But once I tell you them I don't want you to get all drama and start crying the shit out of yourself for you need to hear more than just comments for what I am about to say..."
"Okay...?"
"And I just want it to get it clear to you, what ever I say you won't freak out and die on me. That will only cause more things that I'm all ready handling right now and I don't want to suffer with you... in some way."
All right. He lost her. "Miroku, what are you trying to say?"
"Good news is... You have a good and healthy heart."
Kagome nodded with a smile, hands behind her back waiting for the bad news and knew she was in for it as Miroku was still hesitating. Wow, this must be some really bad news if he was just standing there hardly breathing. Usually he would just say the bad news first and end it with good news. But this was new.
"And the bad news is... your donator was Inuyasha..."
((A/N: Don't you dare kill me just yet! First let me write this THEN you can kill me...))
"What? What?!" Kagome yelled beating Miroku's chest as he only wrapped his arms around her small waist. She cried forever as she didn't hear what he said was true and wanted to die at her spot. "No... no... No! No! No!"
Miroku stroke the back of her raven hair as he let her keep on beating him and keeping her eyes letting all her tears roll down her now wet cheeks. This is was pretty sad that he almost wanted to cry with her. Inuyasha was his best friend and couldn't be anymore proud to even have met him. This would go weird if he never saw him again. He would bitch and pretty much quit his life if he lost that...
"Kagome... Don't cry..." Miroku hushed her. He fumbled in his pocket as she backed away and fell to her knees. He handed her an envelope with her name written in the front in perfect cursive. He knelt down to her eyes leveled with hers.
"...H-how...?" She hiccupped from all that crying desperately wanting to know why.
"He was shot late at night..." Miroku started off slow as he continued. "The night he became human..."
"Human...?"
"He's half demon and every new moon he becomes human... It's why he's able to work here because he has human blood in him." Miroku sighed. "He was nearly killed by his gang lord Naraku, the leader and lord of Tetsusaiga Jogenki group... But a few months ago Inuyasha came to me on a human night and asked if he could be your heart donor. I ran some tests and his blood was as good as yours. It was the reason why he was late to visit you that one night on visiting hours when he didn't show up until late... After taking the tests we dyed his hair white and put on contacts so you won't see his human form. It was Hell dying his hair, though." Miroku rolled his eyes. "But we were even lucky you didn't notice his ears weren't at the top of his head but his human ears at the side of his face."
Yeah, now that Kagome calmed a little bit, just a little, she thought about not seeing his dog-ears. She understood but that still didn't give him the right to give her his heart!
"He knew that this was going to happen so he told me once this day comes, he wanted his heart directly to you... and to give you this note. He stopped us from removing that bullet and told us to give his heart to you and pronto." he pointed to the note he handed her. "You should thank him for he's inside you now Kagome..."
Kagome's body stopped. It was true. She has him inside herself. He was being happy with her once she awoke from the terrible nightmare. Why didn't she see that sooner? She felt a tear trickle down her face. She smiled.
...He was nearly killed...
Kagome remembered hearing Miroku say that to her at the beginning when he started to talk. "Miroku... You said that he was nearly killed... He isn't dead?"
Miroku laughed. "No! What made you think that?! That stubborn gas bag wouldn't die even if his life really depended on it!"
"Then... Then how?"
"He's living off the Shikon no Tama. It's the most rare thing to ever be born with. There are few people who have that organ growing in them... As a matter of fact... He and two other people are living off it now. He could practically live off without a body and just a head!" Miroku scrunched up the side of his nose. "Is that why you were crying?"
Kagome nodded.
"Oh, I thought that you were crying for joy it's why I didn't want to go through all those tears." Miroku rubbed the back of his neck trying to think of what to say. "Well, yeah, he's alive and well waiting for you to wake. He insisted on walking here and be the first one for you to see but I couldn't let him do that. That Shikon is slowly re-creating that heart that he just lost and since the dye was off he'll look different. He'll look more human." Miroku sighed. "So, he wrote you a note in case he was sleeping on the drugs I put in him because he nearly through a fit when I refused for him to see you. He really needed to rest."
Kagome nodded in understand. Even though something's didn't make sense in her mind she was glad that Inuyasha was still alive and couldn't go through with it if he really was gone from her arms and desires.
Miroku placed a kiss on her forehead and ruffled her hair. That was way too familiar. Inuyasha always did that every time he had to leave. "I'm going to go now... You read that note and if you want... You can visit him. I'll be just down the hall waiting for you. You need me to get in his room. Okay?" Kagome nodded.
"But, wait."
Miroku stopped at the door and looked at her. "Yes?"
"Who are the other people that has the Shikon no Tama?"
"His mother and... You."
Kagome was going to ask him something else but he all ready disappeared and she stared at the envelope. How did she have it in her? If she had a weak heart then... Things got more confusing by the minute...
Dear Kagome,
You're probably yelling at Miroku in your head right now. He might of scared you thinking that I might've moved on or something. Tell me and I'll kill that bastard if he made you cry.
Well, anyway, if you think that I'll ever leave you, forget about it. I'll never leave you. Don't you ever think that! It would just mean that you don't have trust in me that you don't believe I love you or something. That's just too hard to do... Not love you. I wanted to say that to you since forever now, Kagome. And I was so happy that I finally did. I was so scared how you would react and since you said it back I just about died with happy and gleeful joys that ran through my body!
I'm guessing you're wondering about the Shikon no Tama that's now in your body, huh? Well, I asked Miroku a request to donate half of mine into you so that way you and I will be together and in case if that heart I gave you failed, then at least the Shikon will create a new one for you. But I doubt that it will ever fail on you... It would never give up like I would never give up on loving you. I hope you're not mad at me... I talked with your mother and she explained why she acted like she hated me. It's just how she met your father the way you and I met each other...
I feel kind of bad now... Your father died because his heart didn't make it... I'm sure you know nothing of this but I had to tell you since your mother told me not to but I did. I didn't want you and your mother to fight. But I'm still sorry. So forgive your mother?
I wanted to do this sooner but I couldn't. I didn't want to surprise you... I especially didn't want you to leave me for a long time... I was scared if I would lose you. And since I was attack that one night and was headed to surgery I had the opportunity to give you something no one in the world could have. I hope you accept. It's a big part of me...
Well, I must be boring you but I want you to come as soon as you're done! So, please hurry!! I'm crying out in agony! It's been a long time since I've seen you!
I love you,
Inuyasha
Notice me... Take my hand...
Why are we... strangers when...
Our love is strong...
Why carry on without me?
Every time I try to fly, I fall... Without my wings I feel so small...
I guess I need you baby..
And every time I see you in my dreams, I see your face its haunting me...
I guess I need you baby...
He sat up staring out the window in a small private room and sighed. He was depressed he couldn't wait any longer to wait for her. He hoped he didn't scare her too much. He loved her so much he didn't know the sudden feeling hit him. He loves her and that's that.
I make believe... That you are here...
It's the only way... I see clear...
What have I done?
You seem to move on easy.
And every time I try to fly, I fall... Without my wings I feel so small...
I guess I need you baby..
And every time I see you in my dreams, I see your face you're haunting me...
I guess I need you baby...
"Inuyasha!" His head snapped as his eyes lightened up and was glad to see his gift from the Angels. She ran to him and wrapped her arms around him hugging like there was no tomorrow. He wrapped his shaking arms her waist as she was fully on top of him. She sat on his lap looking down at him with her blurry eyes. He wiped the tears away and smiled.
"Kagome..." He bent foreword and placed a kiss on her lips like it's been forever since they did that.
I may have made it rain...
Please forgive me...
My weakness caused you pain...
And this song my sorry...
Ooh...
At night I pray... That soon your face will fade away...
Every time I try to fly, I fall without my wings I feel so small...
I guess I need you baby..
And every time I see you in my dreams, I see your face you're haunting me...
I guess I need you baby...
Kagome and Inuyasha stared at each other and knew that they would be together forever... Nothing will become between them and nothing can stop them from loving each other.
"Thank you, Inuyasha..." Kagome whispered down his ears sending chills all over his body. He didn't look human, just his normal the way he looks like. Silver ears, dog ears, and amber eyes. "Thank you so much for saving me..."
"I love you..." Was all he could say.
Kagome smiled on his lips and manage to murmur, "I love you, too..."
¤¤¤
