CHAPTER EIGHT - Thoughts of Dreams
"He just HAD to wreck that moment..." Kagome said. Pacing angrily around her trashed room. Sango was the poor soul who had to be listening to all of this. Except for the eavesdropper.... Shippou. 'Ooo... this is gonna be good...' he thought, pressing his ear harder to the wall. It turned out that when need be, the kitsune could actually be quiet silent, enough so to not wake up the nearby hanyou.
"Kagome, relax, it is Inuyasha after all. This is what he does."
"Well, I wish that he didn't!"
"I beg your pardon?" Kagome slipped to the floor. An instant later, the demon exterminator saw the tears falling from her face. She walked over to her, and sat down to try and comfort her friend. ' I had no idea that her anger was connected to sorrow... Inuyasha what have you done?...'
"He has no clue (sniff)... of how much he hurts me. How much the mention of Kikyo from his lips hurts me. How (sniff) much my heart is breaking when he yells at me like that..." Kagome's tears fell even more fluidly. Shippou could smell the salty tears falling in the room, and could hardly keep himself from listening more intently.
"And... (sniff) of how much I'm in love with him."
Sango's eyes snapped open.
Shippou's jaw dropped.
"He doesn't get any of the hints I send his way... and no matter how many times I try and tell myself it's useless to try to change his mind about who he loves... But (sniff) every now and then, I get a spark of hope when he acts more compassionately to me. Like tonight..." she thought back to how wonderful that moment could have been, if only not for that stupid earthquake (A/N - I'M SORRY!!!!). She could remember how much her heart had been both pounding out of her chest yet fluttering as a feather in the wind.
Sango could only look at her saddened friend with pity, for she did not know of how much Inuyasha DID love her. ' I suppose you must be on the outside of the relationship to see how things can truly be...' She thought.
Kagome felt an arm go around her shoulders, and a small tear fall onto her nightclothes.
"I know perfectly well how you feel. That damn lecherous monk... why is it that I had to fall in love with him..."
"WHOAH, WHOAH, WHOAH! SINCE WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?!" Kagome yelled. Poor Shippou's ears... more like poor unconscious Shippou's ears.
"I'm not sure of how or when, but it just came upon me... But he will never (sniff) think of me the same way. He will only interested in my own and other women's bodies. If only there were some way to get him to keep from being such a pervert..." The friends held onto each other, wishing so dearly that they were holding onto the one's they love. And slumber crept its way into them.
--Kagome's dream --
Black. All she could see was darkness. Kagome felt like she had been running for years upon years, but kept running, knowing that if she did, a reward would come.
A bright light suddenly shown itself above her, and made a barrier around Kagome with it's light. "What the..." Two more lights from high fell down to near she was, and underneath one of them was Inuyasha, and the other was Kikyo. "Inuyasha..." she said longingly. He turned to look at her, but was interrupted by someone... something's voice. "Now half-breed... you must chose. Which one shall you take to be the one you love for all time? When your two lights combine, you two shall be rid of the barrier."
'Oh shit.' Kagome thought. As much as she wanted to think that Inuyasha loved her, it was impossible for him to forget about Kikyo. However, "I-Inuyasha..." Kagome said, sighing. He was walking toward her.
When their lights almost touched, he stopped. "What is it?" Kagome asked, fearing of the answer. But it seemed it was impossible for her to hear her.
Inuyasha slowly turned around, and walked toward Kiyo, who gave a grin of both relief and hatred for her reincarnation. "No... NO, INUYASHA!!!!!" Kagome screamed, tears falling from her eyes. The dead miko's light and his combined, and he said, "I choose Kikyo. She is the one I wish to be with."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-AAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!...." Kagome cried, unable to confine her sheer anguish. The Darkness faded around all of them, to reveal a beach shoreline at night. But a light still remained above the weeping Kagome. Inuyasha and Kikyo were walking along the beach, and passed her. He said, "You were only a shard detector, Kagome. How could I feel anything for such a stupid wench like you."
Kagome looked at him in sheer horror. Her heart was shattered. She fell backwards in the containment she was in, when the light above her began to fade. Along with her.
"I-I-INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" She screamed, before the light was gone.
-- End of dream --
"I-I-INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" Kagome screamed, shooting straight forward in her bed. The hanyou burst down the door and was at her side by the time she finished screaming. Sango heard as well, but decided to let her have her time with him. "Are you okay?" he instantly questioned. She nodded, panting heavily. 'Her entire body is covered in cold sweat... whatta nightmare she had...' he thought.
"Inuyasha..." she croaked, hugging him as hard as she could. "Please... don't' leave me like that again..." she whispered weeping onto his skin (A/N - remember, he where's boxers in his sleep now. I must, he has adjusted quickly)
Inuyasha was so taken aback, all he could do was follow his instincts, and return the embrace. "Kagome, why did ya think that I would leave you?..."
"For the other one..."
"Huh?"
"Kikyo, dumb ass." she said harshly, pulling away from him. However, upon seeing the look in his face after saying 'her' name, 'DAMN IT! WHY DID I HAVE TO SAY HER NAME?! WHY, WHY, WHY?...'
"Oh..." he said. Inuyasha stood up, and headed out the door. 'Oh no...' Kagome gasped. 'My dream... It's happening in some really minor and twisted way... he's leaving me...'
"Please, wait Inuyasha..." he paused, and looked back at her. Back at those eyes that he so desperately wished were the one's of his lover. ' But how can it be... she still thinks I love Kikyo... I did, but... I don't anymore...' He went back into the room, and sat next to her on her bed. Almost instantly he could feel her ease greatly, and go back into slumber. With her head resting on his shoulder. Not that he minded...
--- In the morning (A/N - Coffee addiction time...)
"WAKE UP CALL EVERYONE!" Miss Higurashi yelled, taking another sip of her too powerful coffee. She ran up the stairs, and saw an annoyed Miroku and Shippou glaring at her sleepily. But then she remembered, ' Wait, Inuyasha was also supposed to be in there... I wonder....' She kicked down Kagome's door, and found Kagome sleeping soundly in her bed, and Inuyasha sleeping soundly by her bed. Sango had been woken up by the obnoxious yell, but could barely keep from smiling at the sight. Neither of them wished to wake them, but the cat however....
"AAAAAACK!" Kagome yelled as the fat feline (A/N - who most likely thinks he is not huge) jumped onto her stomach. Her arm went fling over and smacked her lamp, which fell over onto Inuyasha's head. "Hey?!" he yelled at her, but instantly realized that he was still in boxers, and in Kagome's room. That wasn't a factor for long...
"Wow, he's fast... and well built." Kagome's mom said.
"MOM!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Oh sorry, I forgot he is all yours, hint, hint, nudge, nudge." She said with a smirk. She took another sip of her coffee, and hopped her way down the upstairs hall (A/N - boing boing boing). "Kagome?"
"What Sango?"
"Was your mother born scary?"
Kagome fell out of her bed. (ANIME STYLE!!)
