Love Me
Chapter 6: Sweet Dreams
(Kagome looked at Sango after hanging up with Naraku. He had never called her before, it was "too risky" as he once had said but here he was, calling her…Right after school! Sango and her continued walking home.)
Sango: Why does he want to see you?
Kagome: Maybe he wants to call it off?
Sango: uh…no! He's not stupid Kagome. Maybe he misses you…
Kagome: Wow Sango! I'm shocked, first you were surprised and all weird about it and now you're totally for us…WOW!
Sango: I'm not totally for you but I can just tell he really likes you and I mean more than just a plaything.
Kagome: Are you feeling ok?
(She asked, feeling Sango's head with the back of her hand. Sango slapped it away scolding her. Kagome ignored the look she was given and they continued walking. When they reached Kagome's house)
Sango: So you're 'sleeping over' this Saturday right?
Kagome: right…I'll be there around 5:30.
Sango: okay…don't forget your 'pillow'.
((Code names. Sleep over = I'm covering for you again this Saturday? And Pillow =
Bring a pillow…ok…Back to the story!))
(Kagome got home and found her mother's suitcases in the living room, 'oh great!' she thought. Suit cases…that meant her mother was going on a 'vacation' again. She saw Souta and his friend Shippou playing video games in the living room.)
Kagome: MOM!!! Where are you goin this time?! And for how long?!
(she called no reply)
Souta: She's not here baka!
Kagome: Where is she?
Shippou: out eating dinner with my parents…AHEE! Loser! You made me crash! Damn you!!
Kagome: None of that Shippou! I better not hear that coming from you either Souta! Ya hear?!!
Souta: yeah, yeah, yeah…die! AHAHAHAHA! I Win!!
Shippou: BAKA! You cheated! No fair!
(Kagome went upstairs to her bedroom locking the door behind her and fell onto her bed with a bounce. She cuddled into her soft pillows and began to doze off. She dreamt about Inuyasha…)
Her Dream
I would have given you all of my heart…
But there's someone who's torn it apart…
And she's taken just all that I have…
But if you wanna try to love again…
I'll try to love again, but I know…
(She listened to a boy sing out in the distance. It was foggy and white surrounded her, she squinted and saw the sacred tree in front of her and the singing stopped. She saw Inuyasha sitting in the tree looking down at her.)
Inuyasha: What are you doing here?
Kagome: What are you doing here is the real question…
Inuyasha: I come here all the time…it's like I'm drawn to this tree for some reason…you?
Kagome: I own this tree…well, my grandpa did before he died. He left everything of his to my mother, brother, and I.
Inuyasha: oh…sorry.
Kagome: don't be…it was his time…
(she started to climb the tree to where he was but he was too far up so she stayed on the fourth branch up. She stared up at him with a slight smile and he stared down at her and jumped to where she was.)
Inuyasha: so…
Kagome: why did you stop?
Inuyasha: stop?
Kagome: you stopped singing…why? I like that song…
Inuyasha: I don't like to sing that song to people it saddens them…
(He looked away from her out into the distance)
Kagome: then why were you singing it?
Inuyasha: I didn't think anyone heard me…
(There was a pause of silence)
Kagome: do you know any other songs?
Inuyasha: Why do you want to hear me sing so badly?
Kagome: its soothing…to me in a way…your voice is soft when you sing
(She blushed after realizing how corny that sounded. He didn't mind he shrugged and looked back at her. She waited for him to say or do something until finally)
Inuyasha:
Welcome to the planet…
Welcome to existence.
Everyone's here…
Everyone's here.
Everybody's watching you now…
Everybody waits for you now.
What happens next…?
What happens next…?
I dare you to move…
I dare you to move.
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor…
I dare you to move…
I dare you to move.
Like today never happened…
Today never happened before…
(He sang the words as if it were a poem; she melted in his words and let them carry her into his arms. He pulled her closer to him, holding her firmly in his arms. She felt his love and warmth and that chill ran down her spine, she continued to listen to his words…as the butterflies in her stomach wouldn't stand still.)
Welcome to the fallout…
Welcome to resistance.
Redemption is here,
Redemption is here…
Between you and all who you could be…
This is how it is and how it should be…
I dare you to move…
I dare you to move.
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor…
I dare you to move…
I dare you to move.
Like today never happened…
Today never happened …
Maybe Redemption has stories to tell…
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell.
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here…
(She looked up at him and he looked at her and he leaned in to kiss her, she opened her eyes and found that it wasn't a dream at all.)
