She looked into his golden eyes without fear. She ran her fingers through his silver hair without apprehension. She reached for his clawed hands, molding them to hers as though it was the most natural thing in the world – as if he was the most natural thing in the world.

She did not see him as a hateful contradiction, a child of taboo supposedly born from love. What she saw in him, Inuyasha could not even begin to guess. All he knew was that being beside her made him want to be a better person. He wanted to be strong for her, he wanted to trust her, so that someday he might be worthy of her.

And when that day came, maybe he would understand why Kagome could look into his eyes – be they golden, red, or grey – with nothing but the deepest devotion.
