3 Days Later…
The morning sun flooded into the cave, illuminating the face of Takae the healer. Deep in concentration, she was rewrapping Kagome's ankle. She finished what she was doing and looked up at the sleeping girl. She surely was beautiful. Takae couldn't blamr Koga for caring so deeply for this girl.
Just then the girl's eyes fluttered open. Chocolate eyes met icy blue ones as Takae smiled.
"Finally awake I see"
Kagome's vision came into focus as she saw the beautiful woman kneeling over her. She looked around confused.
"W…Where am I ?"she asked
"You are amongst the wolf tribe of Koga" Takae smiled at her. "You are very fortunate that Koga found you, or you surely would have died out there in the rain"
Kagome blinked in surprise. "Wait…Koga saved me?...Oh…" The memories flooded over her and she fought back the tears and gulped.
'Hmmm…this girl is strong' Takae thought
"Your chest cold seems to have healed but your ankle is still recovering, you shouldn't put too much pressure on it"
Kagome nodded and looked up at the woman. "What is your name" she asked
"I am Takae…it is a pleasure to meet you Lady Kagome"
"Thank you Takae…for healing me…I suppose I owe you my life" Kagome said.
"Your welcome my child…but you should really be thanking Koga"
"Where is Koga?" she asked
"He is over there my child" Kagome let her gaze follow Takae's pointing finger to a wall where she saw Koga sleeping.
"He hasn't left your side in days. This is the first time he's slept since you've arrived"
Kagome struggled but soon she rose to her feet and limped over to where Koga was sleeping. She knelt down next to his peaceful form and put a slender hand on his muscular arm.
With Koga's heightened demon senses he sat up almost instantly and blinked in surprise at what he saw.
"Kagome…YOUR AWAKE" he said and grabbed her hands in his.
Takae quietly changed into her true wolf form and slunk out of the cave to give the two privacy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How long have you been awake" he asked her.
"For about five minutes…Koga…I…thank you"
"Oh Kagome…I'm so glad your ok…what did that muttface Inuyasha do to you to make you run like you did?"
At the mention of Inuyasha, Kagome's face turned stoney. Seeing this change in her, Koga frowned.
"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to Kagome"
"No…Its ok I need to tell someone" she said and sniffled. "Well I suppose it would be about four days or so since it happened.
I went down to a nearby river to think and Inuyasha came up to me…
"I love you Kagome" he said. I looked into his eys and saw total sincerity in them, upon which I returned the words that he so freely uttered. Then he kissed me….I'd waited for that kiss forever, and it was perfect, but I could tell he wanted more out of me at the moment and I told him, that we were moving too fast.
"I have always loved you Kagome" he said and he kissed me lightly "…and I'll love you…forever"
We went back to camp and I fell asleep but not for long. I woke up later only to find Inuyasha missing. I wandered into the forest and upon coming to a clearing I found him…along with Kikyo."
Kagome stopped speaking as she felt choked up by the tears forming in her eyes…she continued despite this.
"They…were making love…and Kikyo screamed his traitorous name…as he kissed her face…and said… "I love you Kikyo"…then…I ran… and then…I don't remember"
She couldn't hold back the tears any longer. She choked out a sob and let the tears flow…No sooner had she started this them she felt strong arms wrap around her.
"Oh Kagome…please don't" he said and placed a finger under her chin and lifted her face up to look at him…he wiped away her tears. "Don't cry…please…he doesn't deserve your tears"
She leaned into the warm embrace and closed her eyes.
"It…just hurts so much" she said " I can't go back to them, now all I have is my own home"
Koga suddenly smiled at this comment and raised his clawed hand to stroke her hair.
"Ya know…Kagome…this place is always welcome to you. We would all love to have you here…especially me"
Kagome looked up and into his eyes.
"Koga…can I have time to think about it…this is all so sudden and I …" she was cut off by a claw that gently touched her lips.
"Of course my love" he said and stood up. "Now rest Kagome…I'll send Takae to wake you tonight before the celebrations start."
"What celebrations?"
"Why…for you of course…Ginta and Hakaku are dying to see you" he said and walked out of the cave and into the sunlight.
Kagome limped over to the pile of furs in which she earlier resided. She laid down and slowly let sleep consume her.
