Alternate Version – Kikyou's Side
.
.
.
You ask me, how am I?
Well I'm still standing, aren't I?
That's something, that's one thing
That's gone my way
It was very strange, the way he approached me. Calm and quite, just as always, yet his aura seemed to be different. Purer for some unknown reason. But by the look on his face, I knew he was serious.
It's so hard, to go on
Like everything's okay now
I knew what he would say. I has been over a year he forgot his promise. In fact, today was the same day, 2 years ago, that he made that promise to me. The promise that he would come to hell with me. I thought he meant it, he never lied to me. At least that's what I used to think.
When inside, I still cry
For yesterday
He had sent a message to me a few days ago, to meet once again. I had thought he wanted to lose contact with me, after he forgot. So when he came, we sat and talked. He rarely opened his mouth. Probably didn't know what to say to me, peculiar I thought it was. He always used to know when to say the right things.
This is my unhappy anniversary
But I lie saying it's just another day
This is my unhappy anniversary, oh
I don't believe the topic of his promise came up. I wonder if he was just trying to avoid it for both of our sakes. Always as caring as ever. Or maybe just as selfish as ever.
I know it's so stupid
To still feel broken hearted
I wonder if you know
Just how much I hurt
He always stuck up for himself, probably always protected himself as well. He asked if I was okay, but I knew he didn't mean about the promise or how he got together with her.
I drink up and think of
A toast to numb the hours
I didn't mind when he started talking about his new life with the girl. It was rather interesting. I tried to picture myself with him as he was now. It didn't help. I couldn't be in love with this Inuyasha, he was changed by her hands. I didn't think I could mold him back to fit my heart.
To get through, without you
Is so hard today
I held back my true feelings. My hatred for him had rose then fell, then rose again, and fell. I couldn't understand my heart now. But I had decided.
Cause it's my unhappy anniversary
But I lie saying it's just another day
This is my unhappy anniversary, oh
He wanted her, so I will have my promise.
Wishing you were here
Same time next year
I will burn in hell.
Wishing you were here
Same time next year
And soon he will join me. But with her as well.
And now it's near midnight
A few minutes and I
Return to, get back to
My former life
We share a small hug, he knew he was still in love with me. He must have not wanted to remind himself of those feelings again. Though I still wish I could rewind time and stay in the past with my Inuyasha, but when the past played again, it would all happen again. I do not think I could bare to lose him that same way again.
Pretending our ending
Was not so bad I know that
It's time to escape you
Well until next year
A small goodbye, a kiss on the cheek, and he was gone. He didn't know that every step he took, he was counting down the seconds until I would take myself. I closed out my soul collectors miles away. They couldn't get to me, and I was surprised when Inuyasha didn't mention them, or my strength draining away.
As he took his final step, his eyes turned back and fell upon me. I just smiled to him, the kind of smile I always use to give him when I was in love with him. And when he turned once again, that's when my heart skipped it's last beat.
When it's my unhappy anniversary
But I lie saying it's just another day
This is my unhappy anniversary
But I smile like it's just another day
It's just my unhappy anniversary
It's just my unhappy anniversary
My smile stayed put.
Until he would come back, even if it would be along side my reincarnation.
Hope you liked them two versions. In my opinion, I liked Kagome's more, but I hate the thought of Inuyasha leaving Kagome for Kikyou. So I decided to make one for Kikyou, but I tried to hurry so I could post it n.n Review and remember to keep your eyes open for updates on meh other stories!
