To Be All Alone
Chapter 4
To be on the edge of breaking downWhen no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Kikyo bit her bottom lip, searching her mind for something to reprimand Inuyasha, but he wasn't finished.
"Kagome's the one who really loves me! Never once has she left me or held a grudge against me! I've gotten her so riled up; it's even a mystery to me why she comes back!"
To be hurtTo feel lost
To be left out in the dark
In a split second, Kikyo notched an arrow in her bow. For the second time in his life, Inuyasha was being held at arrowopoint. But he didn't care.
"Go ahead and shoot me, Kikyo, see if I care. 'Cuz all that matters to me now is Kagome. Not you, not that damn jewel…" Kikyo let go of the drawstring. Her arrow was flying through space and time at an excruciatingly slow speed.
"INUYASHA SIT!" Kagome's voice called. Inuyasha slammed into the ground. The rolled onto his back just in time to see the arrow speed up and hit Kagome in the stomach.
"KAGOME!!"
To be kicked when you're downTo feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
Kagome sat watching Inuyasha's sleeping form toss and turn in the rain. She felt horrible for sitting him just because he didn't tell her what was eating him. She turned around to see her sleeping friends and smiled. She quietly slipped past the bamboo door and into the rain.
When no one's there to save youNo you don't know what it's like
Kagome leaned against the tree trunk just to make sure that nothing happened to Inuyasha.
"Kagome…" Inuyasha said through his sleep. The young girl felt a blush creep up her cheeks. He's dreaming about me! she thought happily.
"Kagome…"
Kagome looked up. Can't be a good dream though. Ever so slowly, and being careful not to fall, she climbed up the tree so that she was on Inuyasha's branch.
Welcome to my lifeInuyasha got up and leaned over Kagome. He turned around, ready to glare at Kikyo, but she wasn't there.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome said faintly.
Welcome to my lifeKagome called the sleeping hanyou's name. He didn't wake. She grabbed his shoulders and shook him gently. "Inuyasha."
His eyes fluttered open. "Ka… Kagome?" He was surprised and relieve to see her alive.
"Who else would I be?" she replied, smiling. "Ki—" Inuyasha put a finger to her lips.
"Don't say her name."
Kagome and Inuyasha sat on the same branch, completely silent.
"Would you die for me, Kagome?" Inuyasha finally asked.
Kagome wore a confused look. "What kind of question is that?"
"Just answer it."
"Come on, Inuyasha. If I knew that there was a one hundred percent chance that you'd come out alive or if knew I could save you, of course I would. I mean DUH!"
Inuyasha flinched. He grabbed Kagome and pulled her in for a hug. He hugged her with all his heart. "Don't."
"But—" Kagome stuttered, partially stunned.
"I couldn't make it without you always coming back." He hugged her closer.
Kagome raised her arms and returned Inuyasha's embrace. "I'll always come back."
And there they sat. Happily in each other's arms, sitting in a tree and in the rain.
