A promise is a promise
Chapter 3: Tears and promises
Inuyasha kept on walking, his small face set to a frown. He totally didn't like the idea of leaving this place, but he knew he had to. The one and only thing that's making him worry is that he has to leave Kagome behind.
He jammed his hands into his pockets, and stopped as he felt something in his pockets. He slowly took out his hands, and out a small cute golden bracelet with an angel wing plait as its charm. In the plait was two names enscripted in gold: Inuyasha and Kagome.
Inuyasha bought it for Kagome, but the idea didn't seem good to him anymore. He was suddenly startled as he saw Kagome's frail body ran towards him, tears in her eyes, and she cling on to him tightly.
" Wha? Kag-chan?"
Kagome raised up her small head, and her cheeks were stained with her tears. She sniffed and said," Inu-chan.....why do you have to leave?"
Inuyasha didn't answer her, instead he took he hand and went off running, pulling her behind. Kagome had a confused look in her face, but decided to follow him anyways, without any questions.
Next thing Kagome knew, they were running up the shrine steps, and they passed the shrine where they lived, and stopped in front of the Goshinbonku tree. Inuyasha let go of Kagome's hands, and went towards the tree, sitting down on the grass.
Kagome followed him and sat beside him too. She leaned her head on his shoulders and Inuyasha leaned his head on top of her head. They stayed like that for about a minute, until Kagome broke the silence and asked, " Inu-chan, do you really......have to....leave me?"
Inuyasha's body stiffened, and his body somewhat relaxed, as he felt Kagome's tears through his shirt. He sat straight up, and took hold of Kagome's shoulders. Kagome raised her head, and Inuyasha wiped her tears with his hands. Then he pulled her into a tight embrace. Kagome bursted out crying, and Inuyasha comforted her until she stopped.
As soon as Kagome started crying, Inuyasha started to explain about him moving and it went on for quite a while. Kagome only nodded her head as a sign of understanding.
" I'm really sorry Kag-chan....I don't wanna leave you either but...."
" I know," Kagome reassured," no need to explain it to me anymore...I understand."
" But, you have to promise me that you're gonna come back someday ok?"
" I will, don't worry.....and to make sure of that promise, I wanna give this to you," Inuyasha took out the bracelet from his pocket and handed it to Kagome.
" Ahhhh, so cuteeeeeee," Kagome placed the bracelet on her wrist and remembered about the necklace that she has. " Oh yeah, Inu-chan...this one's for you," Kagome handed her the necklace, and Inuyasha put it on his neck.
Inuyasha raised his head as he heard Kagome stiffled a cry. Kagome tried to hold back her tears, but just couldn't do it anymore, and Inuyasha stood up just in time as Kagome rushed into him and hugged him tightly.
" Inu-chan.........."
" Just be careful.......take care of yourself....Kagome-chan."
" I will.....and you too.....Inu-chan."
They held on to each other for about a minute more, and Inuyasha slowly released her from his grasp, and walked away. He turned back to look at her one last time, Kagome wiping her tears away waved at him....." A promise is a promise...goodbye Inu-chan."
Inuyasha waved back and whispered to himself," Goodbye, Kagome-chan."
