Chapter 4: Confessions of the Hanyou Heart
'Thinking'
"Talking"
"Wow." "What did you say Kagome?" "Oh, sorry, it was nothing, what did you say?"
She really couldn't grasp the fact that he loved her. she wanted to go home and scream 'I LOVE INUYASHA!' off the rooftops.'What are you doing? Kagome, your muttering to yourself! He's gonna think your phsyco!' "Kagome, you know how hard this is for me. I love you." He looked at her longingly. Almost distantly. "But Inuyasha, what about Kikyo?" she said the name like it was a deadly venom. "Kik... Kikyo is in the past. I don't want her anymore. Its been like over 50 years, and she's dead and made out of clay. I want you!"
'Why cant I believe him? I want to, but I cant. But, I may want to give this a try. After all I love him too.'
"It's alright if you don't love me Kagome. I learn to live with it. Oh and If your worried about us defeating Naraku, don't worry because it wont get in the wa..." He was interrupted as Kagome kissed him softly. "Inuyasha, don't you EVER say I don't love you again!"
BACK AT CAMP!
Sango was sitting by the fire with Shippo. 'I wonder where those 3 went? They have been gone almost 3 hours!' It was starting to get dark. Miroku followed Kagome and Inuyasha into the forest ten minutes after they left.. 'I bet he's watching them. That little hentai.' She was deep in thought, when a certain annoying voice was sounding, interrupting her thoughts. "Sango! Miroku's back!" Miroku ran over and grabbed Sango's arm and pulled her away from the fire. He pulled out of listening range and told her what he'd seen.
"HE WHAT!" "Quiet Sango! Inuyasha said he would never see Kikyo again. And guess what? Kagome kissed him!" "Miroku, you sound like a gossiping school girl! But still! Wow! Are they coming back any time soon?" "Yes. Thats why I left. Didnt want to get caught." "So, do you think their gonna tell us?" "I doubt it, but we know... so... hahaha... revenge!" 'I swear! Miroku is what Kagome would call mental!' Thought Sango as she walked back to the fire with Miroku following behind. To their surprise, Kagome and Inuyasha were back. "What were you guys doing over there, Miroku?" asked the blushing Hanyou. "Well, Inuyasha, I should be asking, YOU the same question!" Sango dug her arm in to his ribs. "Quiet Houshi!"
"What took you guys so long? I was waiting for you Kagome! Miroku was starting to freak me out!" said the little Kitsune. "Well, Shippo, we were getting firewood. Yeah." She looked at Inuyasha. He gave a smirk. "Kagome, would you like to help me find some food?" asked Sango.
"Over THERE?" "Yes Sango. Lets go!"
Sango and Kagome got to a clearing in the forest. "Tell me everything Kagome! I know what you were doing!" 'SHE KNOWS? Am I that obvious?' Kagome's lips curled to a sly smile. "Shouldn't we be getting food? I mean, it WAS your idea..." "Oh come on Kagome! Tell me!" whined Sango. "Fine..."
After Kagome and Sango had left, Inuyasha started sniffing the air. "Inuyasha? Are you okay?" asked Miroku. He answered with a "feh" and walked in the opposite direction as Kagome.
'I wonder where he's off to.' Miroku followed him with a sigh. He crept behind the bushes and watched as Inuyasha walked to a very large tree. There was a woman sitting in its branches. 'Kikyo! Inuyasha promised he wouldn't see her again!' "Kikyo. Come out. I need to talk to you."
" Inuyasha. I've been waiting for you. It took you long enough to catch my scent. Oh yes. The new moon is coming." She jumped out of the tree, and landed gracefully on her feet. She walked over to him and claimed a kiss. "Kikyo, you know I love you. Your going to have to come more secretly now. I told Kagome I wouldn't see you anymore. I lied. I couldn't bear parting with you." "Yes Inuyasha. I shall be here tomorrow. Quietly." "Goodbye Kikyo."
Her soul demons took her gracefully into the sky. ( what are they called? Please tell me!)
'Oh Inuyasha. Why did you do this to Kagome. Im going to have to tell her, and she's going to cry. At least make yourself less suspicious!' Miroku was thinking to himself, as he walked back to the camp they had made.
