Chapter 6: How Could This Happen To Me?

I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light.
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain

CHORUS
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I want to start this over again
So I try to hold
On to a time when
Nothing mattered
And I can't explain
What happened and I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't

CHORUS
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream
How could this happen to me

How could this happen to me By: Simple Plan

Inuyasha stared up at the scared tree. It had been a full month since he had seen Kagome. His heart still ached miserable. Everything had seemed to be a blur to him. Nothing mattered anymore.

Kikyo had come past him and he had ignored her presence all together. Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Kaede, and Kirara had all come by to see what was going on with him. He had refused to tell them yet and didn't know if he ever would.

Days at a time he would do nothing other than stare at the sacred tree. It was the place he had come to meet the girl that he cared for so much and until a month ago he had had not a clue.

She loved him. She admitted it. He had ignored it and left. It was just to much to bare. He could not be near her if she had mated with another. She claimed she had not, so why could he not believe her? She only smelt like him and she usually did since she was around him so often.

He had felt as though the gods were punishing him for being hanyou. Inuyasha wanted so desperately to find the person who fathered Kagome's child and slice off their head. He wanted to see Kagome and tell her that he loved her as well. That he loved being around her. That he loved every little hair on her head. He loved when she was happy. He loved being near her all together.

He could not do this. Demons were forbidden to do such things to an others mate. He still had no idea who that could possibly be.

"Kagome..." Inuyasha looked down. He could feel a wet spot on his cheek. This was the second time he had cried for losing her. (He cries when he thinks she died in episode 107) Only this time it was different. This time he had lost her, because... she had lost him.

"Inuyasha." Inuyasha turned to see Kagome standing there. His facial expression did not change as he stared at the illusion. "What's wrong?" Her voice echoed. "Don't you trust me...?" She disappeared and Inuyasha closed his fist. He had heard her say that over and over in his head, but it was never the real her. It was just something his head was cruelly forcing him to see, as though it was trying to tell him something.

"Don't you trust me?"

"Trust me..."

"Trust..."

"Me..."

"Please..."

"Inuyasha!"

"Don't you..."

"I do." Inuyasha said quietly, but there was no explanation for this and he did not know what else to do, but to believe Kagome was lying to him.

Inuyasha could feel water fall onto him from the sky. He looked up and in the dark clouds he could see a bright spot. Kagome. That was right. She was always the bright spot within the never ending dark. 'There's always something that ruins the peace. That ruins the love.'

"Inuyasha please come back to me. I miss you so much." Kagome's voice continued to pull Inuyasha form his depressing thoughts, but it only made him sadder than he already was.

"I want to see you again Kagome." Inuyasha said to himself.

"So why don't you?" Inuyasha turned quickly in surprise. The real Kagome stood there. She was soaked in the pouring rain and she shivered.

Inuyasha stepped back. Was he truly afraid to confront Kagome? Of course he was.

"What are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome frowned.

"Inuyasha. I needed to see you."

"Just leave."

"I know how you feel."

"No you don't!" Inuyasha yelled out to her. Kagome flinched and glared.

"I DO!" Inuyasha looked at her angrily. "You're the one running away from me! Don't you trust me?"

"Shut up."

"You! Listen to what I have to say."

"Go to fucking hell!" Inuyasha was about to run off, but found he couldn't. He was drawn to Kagome. Her tears were mixed in with the rain. He could never stand to have her hurt.

"There's no one else. There never was." Kagome told him, like she had told him before. Inuyasha didn't understand how she expected him to believe her. "I am pregnant."

"Feh!" Inuyasha looked toward her. What the hell was she saying?"

"You're the only one I love and you're the only one I could ever be with." Inuyasha had of course never expected Kagome to confess all of this. He liked it - yes, but he didn't think he could handle it after all that was going on right now.

"Tell me Kagome." Inuyasha began. Kagome looked down a little and could only see the pool of blood under Inuyasha's fist. "How could I possibly believe you? How could you be pregnant and have not mated with any other demon or human?"

"I don't know." Kagome looked up at him. "How can't you believe me! I trust you Inuyasha. I would trust you with my life any day. You should know that. So why do you find it so hard trusting me? I would give my life for you!" She cried out in a rush of emotions. "I would do anything for you to believe me. With all that happens in this world is it impossible for me to be with child, without actually mating."

"Yes." Inuyasha gave her the saddest look she had ever seen come from him. Her heart ached for him. She wanted to comfort him in any way she possible could. She needed to be with him. Couldn't he see that? Though, she did not blame him for not listening clearly. If she was in his position she would have a hard time believing herself too.

"Inuyasha could you at least come with me."

"To where?"

"To my time."

"Never."

"But.."

"Just leave Kagome. Don't return. We'll wait till Naraku gets the rest of the shards and kill him than. We don't need your help anymore. We don't need you."

"Inuyasha..." She would listen to him. She would. If that was what he truly wanted then she would give it to him. Tears devoured Kagome. "Is that what you really want?"

"... It's the only way..." 'To stop the pain.' Inuyasha wasn't truly sure if the pain would ever go away. He felt so betrayed. He figured that after that small kiss on the hill that they were together at least on the way to being together. It wasn't fair. Life was never fair. He could never be with Kagome is she was carrying someone else's pup. She wouldn't be able to search for jewel shards anyway in that sort of state.

"Inuyasha. I'll go, but... I'm taking a shard."

"... Kagome.."

"I need just one. I'll give you the others. When you get the rest of the jewel I'll give you the last shard. I just need it."

"Why?"

"Because... if you come for the shard than I can be happy. I'll know that you're alive and you survived the battle with Naraku. That's all I need to know." Kagome looked at him with determination behind her tears.

He took a moment to think this over. She had a point. It would not be fair to not allow her to know whether or not he died or lived in the battle. After hunting for two years she had a right to know what was happened in the end.

"Alright. One shard." Inuyasha agreed. Kagome nodded. She pulled the jar from her neck and stared at the shards as Inuyasha approached her. She stood at arms length, no closer.

Kagome took one shard from the small jar and handed the rest over to Inuyasha. He took them and looked at them and then Kagome. He stared into her beautiful eyes. He had never seen her looked so sad and lonely.

Inuyasha wished that he had stayed pinned to the tree forever. It would had saved both him and Kagome a lot of pain in the end. Life was definitely unfair.

Kagome let a deep breath go. She wiped the tear from her eyes, although she did not know why. She would just cry some more when she went back to her own time.

Inuyasha placed the jar in his haori sleeves and stared at Kagome for a moment. She just stood there. She waited for him to make the first move, as he waited for her.

"Can..." Kagome paused feeling a rush of more tears coming on. "Can you tell the others I said goodbye? Tell them I love them all... and not explain the pregnancy thing to them for me?" Inuyasha nodded. He would hate telling his friends, but he needed to. Someone had to and him and Kagome were the only ones that knew.

"I'll tell them. Now go." Kagome nodded and ran off to the well. She jumped in.

Inuyasha looked down. 'How could this happen to me?'

That's another long depressing chapter. I'm going to skip some more time for the next chapter. This is going to be a short fiction. It's almost finished. I might consider a sequel, but I have to finish up my other fictions eventually don't I? This fan fiction is 12 chapters. You are warned.
