I woke up, my skin feeling dry from the tears I had cried the night before. I felt my pillow noting that it was still wet. Looking at the clock, I realized it was still early. I got into the shower and enjoyed the feeling of the hot water running down my back and arms. I shampooed my hair, and put conditioner in it. I was the flow that shippo had picked for me the week before, its brilliant white still shining off it, it was beginning to take root in the water. Odd I though it would die but I guess it's living on will be fine. I sighed and rinsed the conditioner out of my hair, and began to wash my self off. I grabbed a school uniform out of my closet and pulled a long white hair off it. "Oh inuyasha...how could you do this to me?" all over again the tears began to fall again. I flopped down on my bed and began beating it with my fists. "Why why why why why!!!" I screamed in to my pillow. I rolled on to my back, tears still running down my face and I stared at me ceiling, remembering times when I had been hurt and he'd do anything to help me, remembering how jealous he got when kouga was around.... Thinking of the time that narku captured kikyo and he fell victim to naraku's cures. I made it to kikyo alone and she tried to kill me, I remembered inuyasha finding me later and how it seems like he wanted to kill her, all because of me. The night she took our jewel shards. I closed my eyes remembering how it felt to be in his arms, so happy and safe, so right.... I feel like I'm dieing with out you inuyasha...Maybe I am... I rolled back over and mumbled in to my pillow about how I couldn't go on with out him. I need to go back... I have to, I won't abandon him, just as he wouldn't abandon me as I had an arrow aimed at his heart, I remembered the defeat of minomaru so well, it was the first time that inuyasha had hinted that he may love me. Those words kept me going for the longest time, even after kaede's death, and after kouga found his downfall, "I'm not leaving without you kagome..," "I need you here with me kagome, haven't you figured that out yet?" I need you with me too inuyasha I thought I got up and got dressed. I'm coming inuyasha. Be ready. I though determined. I grabbed my bow and arrows and ran from the house.
And this thought could be what begins...
I was standing at the base of the god tree I was scared, but nearly as much as I was determined, I will take my inuyasha back. He will be mine. "INUYASHA" I screamed at the top of my lungs, sending out a wave of my powers at the same time, "INUYAHSA" I screamed again, repeating the power wave. I heard a laugh coming from above me. Inuyasha jumped from the branches of the god tree.
"I see you've come to accept your fate" he said in a steely calm voice. This isn't inuyasha I thought. He loved me, I know he did he wouldn't try to kill me. I looked him square in the eye there was something there. Fear. I knew it.
"Inuyasha" I said, "I want to talk to you. You can kill me afterwards I swear, just right now let me talk to you." The words sounded bizarre in my own ears.
The brand new tangled web you're spinning...
"ok" he settled down. I walked over to him and sat down close to him. We where facing the god tree. He looked at me oddly as I laid my hand on his.
"inuyasha look at me." I demanded. "Inuyasha..." I drifted off, not sure what to say. "do you remember.." I started off my voice wavering ...please, please come back to me... "do you remember when we first me, right here in this spot?" I looked at him. He nodded. " do you remember when minomaru had me under his spell, and you told me you'd never run with out me?" I looked in to his eyes. They where glistening with tears. He turned away.
"no kagome I don't"
Anyone can be you're brand new love...
"but you do inuyasha you're crying. Do you remember when kikyo trapped me in my own time and we where still connected by the sacred tree? Do you remember?" my voice was raising in volume, my last words where a harsh yell. "do you remember what you said inuyasha? I know you do I know this isn't you, I know kikyo has control over you and..." I lowered my voice. He was looking at me again. Kikyo had control of his body but not his soul. The eyes where the window to the soul, and they where the one thing kikyo couldn't thouch in him his soul. "...I know I love you inuyasha. I love you" I said tears falling from my eyes, running down my cheeks. I felt a wave of spiritual power wash off him.
any time the force can be broken...
"kagome..." he said I felt the last wave of power seep from him. "do you remember that time when I we first kissed?" he said as he gently took my hand in his lacing the fingers. We where both crying now and our lips met. He broke the kiss. "I remember it, and I will always treasure it." He looked straight in to my eyes. I felt my body grow warm in his arms. "I love you too" he said "thank you kagome, you where always by my side."
To tear your bitter world to be open...
"oh inuyasha" I said almost at a loss for words..."don't you know, I'm not whole when I'm not by your side?" I said my eyes filling with tears. Our lips met again.
"kagome" he said his eyes glazed over with sadness..."kagome I killed shippo." He said I could feel the sadness, the guilt, the shame in his heart.
"no inuyasha, kikyo killed shippo, he's at home now," I said tears running down my face, "he's at home now with his family...with his mom, his dad, kaede and kouga, they're all together looking on us."
Oh Inuyasha I thought as our lips met again. "I love you" we said at the same time. And we both blushed.
Anyone can be your brand new love...
