---A New Day---
A new day...
A new day...
"Kagome...Please come back...I love you..."
I was waiting for so long
For a miracle to come
Everyone told me to be strong
Hold on and don't shed a tear
Kagome sat at her desk, studying and doing her homework quietly. She sighed to herself, and looked outside her window. 'Cut it out Kagome, you're expecting someone to come and no one will.' She shook the thoughts off her mind and stood up, closing the curtains so she wouldn't have a chance to look out there anymore. Now she could get back to the important things. Like school, and homework, and learning. She shouldn't be caught up over something that's never coming back.
His amber eyes looked down at his palms where the jewel was, or should be. He then realized there was no jewel in his hands and began looking around for it. "If I don't find it..." He mumbled quietly to himself while looking for it, cursing himself for it not being where it should be. After all that they went through to get that jewel, he was not about to let it get lost.
Through the darkness and good times
I knew I'd make it through
And the world thought I had it all
But I was waiting for you
She stepped out of the shower, closing a towel tightly around herself. Kagome stopped in front of the mirror, taking a moment to look at her appearance before grabbing the blowdryer. 'I look nothing like her.' She said this everytime she could, hoping to convince herself she looked nothing like Kikyo. After drying her hair and getting dressed, she returned to her room.
She laid down on her bed, running her hand over the soft green material. She thought back on the first time Inuyasha came here. Back then, her bedsheets were light pink. 'You're doing it again...' She thought to herself and looked up at the ceiling. A glimpse of light through her curtains caught her eye and she turned to look at it. It flashed and Kagome got up, opening her curtains to see it better. Next thing she knew...she had fainted.
Hush now
I see a light in the sky
Oh, it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love
After an hour of searching, Inuyasha finally gave up on finding the jewel. He went to the Sacred Tree and got on one of the lower branches, closing his eyes so he wouldn't have to see anything around him.
"My head..." Kagome opened her eyes and searched around her, worried that she was laying on a patch of dirt, and there were old wooden walls around her. She froze in place, realizing what it was. "I'm in the well?" She looked up, seeing a clouding gray sky above her. She shook her head, "I must be dreaming. I know I'm not in the well, there's no way." She stood up, deciding to play along until she woke up. She grabbed hold of the vine nearby and climbed up the side of the well.
A droplet of water fell on his cheek. He opened his golden eyes and looked up at the sky, noticing the storm clouds all around. Gradually, more and more droplets fell on him, until there was a steady downpour of rain.
Let the rain come down and wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul and drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls for a new sun
A new day has come
"Just great. Some dream..." She mumbled and climbed out of the well, brushing some wet hair out of her face. She sat on the edge, considering what to do now. She rested her chin in her hands, using her knees to support her elbows. "Now what...?"
Inuyasha's eyes searched around him as he sniffed the air. It was faint, but he could swear he smelt Kagome's scent. He sighed and looked down, his bangs somewhat blocking the rain out. He must've lost his mind, there's no way she was here. She left him for good this time.
Where it was dark now there's light
Where there was pain now there's joy
Where there was weakness I found my strength
All in the eyes of a boy
She stood up and scanned the area, not able to make much out through all the rain. She noticed a tree taller than the rest and knew that was the Sacred Tree. She headed toward it, knowing it to be the only place she'd be finding anytime soon.
He closed his eyes again, telling himself he was going crazy. He felt the rain soak him completely, but wasn't that cold, surprisingly enough.
Hush now
I see a light in the sky
Oh, it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love
She stepped up to the tree, placing her hand on the trunk, feeling the bark. She stopped and pulled her hand back, "Ow..." she looked down at her hand, struggling to pull out a splinter. By the time she finally pulled it out, she realized that hurt. 'But I can't be...there's no way...how...?' She stepped back, confused. How could she be back in the Fuedal Era? She was in her bedroom! Of course, that strange purple light she saw before blacking out was questionable.
His ears twitched at the noises below. He figured it out to be some random helpless demon passing by. That was until he heard a quiet, "Ow..." and his ears perked up. He sniffed the air carefully and looked down. His eyes widened, but was afraid to believe it. Was it Shippo playing a rotten trick? No, there was no tail on her. He watched in silence, waiting to see if it was really her.
Let the rain come down and wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul and drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls for a new sun
A new day has...
Let the rain come down and wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul and drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls for a new sun
A new day has come
Kagome looked up at the sky, and noticed something red in her view. She looked closer and gasped. "Inuyasha...?"
Inuyasha jumped down from his perch on the branch and met her eyes. Even though you couldn't tell from looking, his nose could smell the salt water in her tears. Before he knew what was happening, she was gripping tightly to his haori, crying into it. He smiled softly.
"Why did you come back?" It may not have been the best thing to ask first, but it was something he was wondering.
Kagome shook her head, "I don't know, I didn't I ...I don't know what happened. I just appeared here."
Suddenly it hit Inuyasha like a ton of bricks. The jewel must've done this. That's why it wasn't there after Inuyasha said what he had said. It obviously did what he had asked it to. He smiled and put his arms around the schoolgirl, listening as her sobs slowly faded away.
"Kagome?"
"Yeah...?"
She lifted her head to look up at him and he gently pressed his lips against hers. She stood in a state of shock before returning the kiss. He pulled back to look at her, and noticed a faint blush gracing her cheeks. He continued, "I love you."
Kagome's eyes widened, and she felt her eyes water with fresh tears. She smiled, "I love you too."
Then...the rain stopped as the clouds faded away. That's when the sun came out. A new day has finally come.
Hush now
I see a light in your eyes
All in the eyes of a boy
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love
Hush now...
A new day...
Hush now...

Okay! I hope that when as well as planned. I tried to make it all romantic and corny and cheesy at the end, so let me know how I did! I think that's it for this story, but who knows. If reviews are plentiful, I might continue onward!
Oh and as for credits...the song is titled "A New Day Has Come" and it's by Celine Dion.
