Inuyasha/Kagome.

She sits at the edge of the well, feet dangling over. A gust of wind flits through her hair, sending it rushing into her face and she laughs a little. His ears prick at that. It's a pretty laugh, light and happy and everything Kikyou couldn't be. It's the ultimate cheat that he could be, if he grabs it in hand, and fuck, it hurts that he can have it all when she couldn't.
She's waiting, a second chance in a torn school uniform and socks that sag down around her ankles, and steeling himself because it will always hurt, he goes to take that chance.
