Unsuspecting Love

Chapter 18

Dance The Night Away

"Are you ready for the dance Kagome?" her mom asked her.

"I'm as ready as I ever could be," she replied back. She entered the living room where her mom waited for her. She had a dark blue dress on with spaghetti straps. A silver bracelet and a silver necklace.

"You look amazing!" her mom complimented. Just remember you have to be home by nine. We are leaving at nine thirty."

"I know," she said sadly. Do we really have to mom?"

"We don't have a choice I'm afraid. Just forget about it and have fun. You have a couple hours with your friends left." Her daughter nodded.

A horn beeped.

"Bye mom!"

"Bye."

"Did you ask Miroku?"

"Yeah," Sango replied.

"What did he say?" Kagome asked cheerfully.

"Yes!"

They both giggled. Today was a great day indeed. Until nine. But until that time she promised herself to have fun and not worry about it. That was promise she was going to keep.

"Something wrong, you seem down?" her friend asked with a worried expression.

"No, I'm fine really." She looked out the window of the car. She had to enjoy tonight as much as she could. It would probably be her last night. She closed her eyes and imagined what she would tell everyone.

"Kagome were here," Sango's cheery voice stated. That snapped Kagome back into reality. She merely nodded and got out of the car. "I wonder where those two could be?"

'Let it go Kagome and have fun. That's what your here for right?' She let go of the breath that she didn't know she was holding. 'This is your last night. Make it count, make it worthwhile.'

"Kagome?" Sango asked worriedly.

"Sorry I was just thinking."

"Stop thinking and pay attention to where your going."

She finally noticed she bumped into someone. "Gomen ne."

"Now all we have to do is wait for our dates." They both took a seat on some nearby chairs.

=Thirty Minutes Later=

"There really late," Sango added to Kagome's last comment.

"They better show up soon," Kagome looked at her watch. Fourty five minutes to nine. She didn't have much time left and the dance was only begining. 'Inuyasha, please come soon.'

The doors burst open and Miroku and Inuyasha came in. A couple girls asked them to dance, but they rejected. They walked up to their dates.

"Took you long enough," Sango complained.

"Really," Kagome added.

"Now since were here, Lady Sango would you like to dance?"

"Sure."

The music to the begining of a song started to play.

Kagome jumped up. "This is my favorite song."

"Would you like to dance?" Inuyasha asked Kagome. She nodded and took his hand.

I'm sure that the heart I left behind
Still lies in the heart of the deep, deep forest.

Kagome couldn't believe this. After wanting to dance with him for so long, she is. Even though she never wanted to admit it before, she always did find Inuyasha attractive. Maybe that's why she is here with him now?

Exhausted, without the strength to search
people vanish into infinite darkness.

If It's so small, I wonder if I can see it even now?

She remembered the first time she met him. At first she thought it was a curse, but now she knows it was only the begining of something beautiful.

As we live on,
we loose a little bit more.
Shrouded in falsehood and lies,
We stand frozen to the spot, unable to cry out

-Flashback-

"My first day at school, what a blessed day," Kagome joked with her friend Sango. They both giggled.

"Look whose here," someone said from behind him.

They turned around. "Aren't you high and all might with your amazing entrance," Kagome said sarcastically.

"Whose popular, bitch?"

"Please, I've seen better looking people in the geek club," she rolling her eyes at him.

"Your only saying that because you are from the geek club."

"Ha."

They both turned on their heels and walked away leaving a pissed Inuyasha.

-End Flashback-

The days pass and change,

without us even realizing how blue the sky really is.

"I remember when we always use to pass by and yell at each other," Kagome said.

"So do I."

Overcoming that made-up scheme, we live in the present,

and our rusted hearts begin to beat again!

If we can find the rhythm of time, we can fly once again.

We live our lives

wandering to the ends of the earth.

Believing (in you?) , now I begin my journey with you,

in search of light.

-Kagome-

It felt so right leaning against him. He was so warm. I always use to have this weird feeling after I was done yelling at him. I guess this love existed all the time. It took me till just now to realize this. I am so stupid.

I rested my head on him and relaxed. This was the time for me to enjoy myself. It was going to be over soon anyway. My life never was the best, till I met you. I shifted my eyes up. He looked so cute. If only my dad could see me now.

We live our lives

wandering to the ends of the earth.

Believing (in you?) , now I begin my journey with you,

in search of light.

We live our lives

wandering the ends of the earth.

Closing off

the way back,

we walk on for eternity.

If this moment is suppose to be so touching and happy, why do I feel so sad? Is it because this might be the last time I will ever see him? No it won't be. I promised myself it wouldn't. No matter what I will see him again. No matter the cost.

We live our lives standing frozen to the spot,

unable to cry out, for eternity...

I'm sure that the heart I left behind

still lies hidden in the heart of the deep, deep forest.

Exhausted, without the strength to search

people vanish into infinite darkness.

If it's so small, I wonder if I can see it even now?

-Inuyasha-

Her face looks so plagued with worry and sadness. I wonder what's going on in that little head of hers? I know I'm not doing anything wrong, but still, why is she so sad? There is something she's keeping from me.

She's not the one to keep secrets either. I'm sure she'll tell me when the times right. She always does. I let out a quiet sigh and let the song and moment take over.

As we live on,

we lose a little bit more.

Shrouded in falsehoods and lies,

we stand frozen to spot, unable to cry out

The days pass by and change,

wothout us even realizing how blue the sky really is.

Overcoming that made-up scheme, we live in the present,

and our rusten hearts begin to beat again!

If we can find the rhythm of time, we can fly once again.

She looked up at me. Our eyes locked. I looked into her brown eyes to see hurt, sadness, worry, and the worst of all scared. I couldn't understand why'll all these emotions were flickering through her. Did she have doubts about me? No that couldn't be it. Then what?

We live our lives

wandering to the ends of the earth.

Believing (in you?), now I begin my journey with you

in search of light.

-Kagome-

I shook the thoughts about what my mother told me earlier. I have to enjoy this. This is the last time I will ever be with him. What she told me can't bring me down. It won't bring me down!

We live our lives

wandering to the ends of the earth.

Believing (in you?), now I begin my journey with you

in search of light.

No matter where I go or what I do, I will never forget him. He is the love of my life. Our bond cannot be broken by time.

We live our lives

wandering to the ends of the earth.

Closing off

the way back,

we walk on for eternity.

We live our lives standing frozen to the spot,

unable to cry out, for eternity...

Inuyasha. No matter what I promise to be with you, forever. I hope you wish the same.

-Inuyasha-

No matter what may bring us apart I will always be with you. Through all the bad and through all the good.

I moved my face close to her and kissed her. I could tell she was surprised at first, but returned the kiss in a matter of seconds. They pulled away and looked into each others eyes.

"Forever?" I heard her ask.

"Forever," I replied back.

-Normal POV-

Sango just pulled away from Miroku and pointed towards Inuyasha and Kagome. "Look."

They both smiled and kissed again, this time with more meaning then the last.

The song ended and Kagome looked at her watch. She had ten minutes left. It was now or never. She had to tell everyone. Everyone say down and watched as the others danced.

She cleared her throat.

-Kagome-

I got really scared. I didn't know how to break the news to them. It seemed impossible to do altogether. Maybe I shouldn't have come after all. I mentally hit myself. I came and enjoyed the one dance we had. It was all I ever wanted. To love someone and for them to return my feelings.

"Guys," I said louder then I wanted it to come out. They all looked at me with smiles on their faces, all except Inuyasha. I guess he knew something was wrong. He noticed it whn we danced, I'm sure of it.

"I have something I need to tell you guys. I am moving and this is the last five minutes I will be able to spend with you guys. I would have told you sooner, but my mom just told me today." I started to burst out in tears. It was to hard to hold them back. it hurt so much to even say that I was leaving. Then I felt a comforting arm wrap around me. I faced Inuyasha and smiled the best one I could muster. I am so glad to have friends like them. Sango and Miroku also came up to me and hugged me. Inuyasha joined in. I could even hear Sango sniffle a few times. My watch beeped.

"I'm so sorry, can you guys ever forgive me?" I asked.

"We could never be mad at you," Sango said wrapping her arms around me. I hugged her back.

"I'm sorry I have to go now. Sango, could you give me a ride home?" She nodded. I hugged Miroku one more time then went and faced Inuyasha.

"I'm sorry things had to turn out like this. I was hoping we could go further into our relationship. It is the first one I have had in a while." I kissed him on the cheek and faced Sango. "Let's go." I didn't want to see his reaction. It would only hurt me more. I guess this is, goodbye.

Don't kill me. She has to move, it's because of Souta's health condition. You learn about that next chapter. I hate to say it, but this story is coming to a close. The last chapter will be out very soon.

Any unanswered questions will be either answered in the next chapter or the sequel that I will start soon after the last chapter is posted. For example, the flash of silver that Kagome told you about in chapter 16.

Review!

Ja ne!
