You Only Realize You Love it Once You Lose It

Chapter 8: To win your Love back

The next day, Kagome and InuYasha were eating under the Goshinboku talking about random stuff. Kikyou was becoming rather suspicious. She had befriended Kagome on the sole purpose of making sure Kagome didn't take InuYasha away. Yes..She knew InuYasha and Kagome loved each other..and she also knew that Kagome had a very good heart and a naive mind..so she took profit of that. Oh well, now it seems as if plan A had failed, she would have to move on to plan B..wich was...

InuYasha and Kagome had finished eating and were now heading back to camp. Even tough they were right besides Kaede's hut, they preferred being outside under the star.

As night grew, everyone fell asleep. But Kagome couldn't. She woke up..and went to the tree InuYasha was on. He opened one eye.

"Go back to sleep wench" He said.

"I can't sleep..do you think I can..." Kagome said a bit afraid he would say no.

He didn't say anything, he just jumped down and took Kagome before she could process it in her brain, then jumped back on his branch, setting Kagome in his lap and taking of his Fire Rat Haori wich he placed on Kagome to keep her warm.

'This is how I want it..like before..' InuYasha tought happily.
'It's been so long since I've been with him like this..everything seems almost like before now' Kagome tought.

Kikyou was sleeping..or was she? She was burning with anger. Who did this girl think she was? She was gonna die for that...tomorrow..'Tomorrow is the day I will go with plan B... For now..I need to sleep..' And with that last tought, she went to sleep.

"InuYasha? Are you still awake?" Kagome whispered.

"What do you want wench?" He asked gruffly.

"I can't sleep..." She replied a bit scared.

"Why?"

"I'm scared.."

"I'll protect you..don't you trust me?"

"Well..you DID kill me..." she said laughing a bit.

"Kagome..." he started

He felt a twang of guilt washing over and he flinched when she said that he killed her..it was true..but he didn't like to be reminded of what he did..

"Gomen..."
"I forgave you alredy..you don't have to say sorry.." she said smiling

"Still..Gomen..I didn't want to kill you..I really didn't.."

"I know..you did it for Kikyou..right?"

"Kagome...take off the bracelet.."

"Huh? Nani? ( What? )"

"You heard me..take off the bracelet." he repeated.

"But..I don't want to..."

"Why?"

"I'm..I..I'm scared.."

"Onegai ( Please ) Kagome..for me? You said you would give me a second chance..and..I have something to tell you...please? At least only now?"

"But.."
"Please Kagome.."
"Ok..but if you make me cry..I'll never look at you again!"

InuYasha's ears dropped down and he looked like a lost puppy. Kagome giggled.

"You silly little boy. I said if you make me cry...you're not going to right?"
"No I'm not..Kagome..."

InuYasha turned Kagome around so that she was facing him.
Kagome took off the bracelet as her real emotions resurfaced...

"Kagome..When I first met you..I only saw Kikyou"

He saw a flash of hurt pass trough Kagome's eyes.

"BUT later on..when I started to know you..I only saw you for you..Kagome! Kagome not Kikyou... and later on, I started caring for you like you cared for me..and..even tough I didn't show it..when you weren't there, I didn't felt complete.. So then I tought that maybe it was because you resembled Kikyou so much...When I killed you..that day.." he continued

InuYasha flinched at the memory but Kagome put a hand on his hand wich recomforted him.

"When that day came..and I did..you know what...I knew I was wrong..it wasn't because you resembled Kikyou. You were YOU. You were Kagome. And I learned things...I learned that I couldn't live without you. That day when you came back, I got my hopes high up that maybe..just maybe it really was you! And when you showed that flower, I knew it was you! I just wanted to go and hug you right there and say I was sorry..and then..when you said you were gonna...marry..Kouga.."

He said 'Kouga' as if it were poison

"I got jealous. I tought..maybe it was because he isn't good enough for you..and then Miroku and I had a little conversation..."

/ FlashBack /

"He isn't good enough for her Miroku..I got to stop this!" InuYasha roared.

"InuYasha..have you ever tought of how it would affect Kagome if you did that? Miroku said wisely, you don't let her have anyone in her life besides you, yet you run off too Kikyou. Is that how you want Kagome to be? Lonely for the rest of her life? Maybe this isn't because Kouga isn't good enough for her, maybe it's because you want her to be with you..am I right?"

InuYasha just stayed there thinking...for once..the peverted monk was right..he didn't want her to be lonely for the rest of her life..but he certainly didn't want another male near Kagome... He growled at that tought. And maybe he's right..maybe he did like her..and then he thinked back to that painful month that passed with Kagome dead..he couldn't bear it..each day, he would wake up, knowing that Kagome wouldn't be there because she was dead..and he was the cause of it. He would never hear her laugh that recomforted him so much, her smile wich made him have good dreams, her scent wich made him go off to 'La-la Lan...never..never again..and it was all his fault..That's when he knew it..He...

/ End FlashBack /

"After that conversation, I finally understood..I finally understood that even tough you look like Kikyou, you are completely different at the same time. You are Kagome. You are MY Kagome..I love you Kagome..please...forgive me for..taking so long to realize this..I understand if you don't want me anymore..." he said looking down as his ear dropped in fear of hearing rejection. The last thing he expected was for Kagome to hug him with all her might. And it did happen. She hugged him as she cried in his chest.

"Wh..Why are you crying Kagome!" he said panicked.

He hated when Kagome cried.

"I'm crying out of joy InuYasha..even tough..you betrayed me..my feelings wouldn't go away..I..I love you too InuYasha!" she said as she jumped on him and hugged him.

They sat there hugging each other. On a tree. Enjoying the other's presence.
