Chapter 15:

Flara rushed to the caves where Koga was. This was the first step of the plan, just to meet up with Inuyasha everyday while Kagome was away, then leave before she returned. It was perfect. Slowly but surely, Inuyasha would come around and Koga may or may not be happy with the results. Who even knew whether Kagome would go to Koga for comfort, unless he had a plan for himself to ensure that. But who knew what the hell was going on in that wolf's noggin these days. He was like a love sick puppy more than anything. The thought of this made Flara giggle as she ran through the waterfall and ran straight back to where Koga was.

"Well?" Koga asked, hoping that Kagome was already running away.

"Patients." Flara replied. "If you want it to be permanent, then you have to wait. Inuyasha will come around eventually and Kagome's heart will be broken once again."

"You're sure about that?" Koga asked.

This was really bugging Flara. If Koga really loved her, he would want her to ba happy. "I'm sure." Flara replied belatedly.

A few moments of silence past before Flara spoke up. "Hey Koga, why do you want Kagome so bad?" Flara asked.

"Because I love her. Why?" Koga replied.

"No, why do you really want her? Why do you love her? Why would you want to break the heart of someone that you love? I just, I just don't understand that. If you really loved her, wouldn't you want her to be happy?" Flara asked.

"Feh. Like she could ever be happy with that mutt." Koga said. "I love her because she's beautiful, caring, loyal-"

"Do you know anything about her?" Flara asked.

Koga had to think about that for a moment, but he only know very few things about Kagome other than she was human and could see the sacred jewel shards. "Not really." Koga said.

"And what does she always want whenever you kidnap her?" Flara asked.

"To go back to that mutt-face." Koga said, sounding a bit angry. Flara wondered if maybe she had gone too far. Especially when Koga stood up and and punched a small hole in the wall of the cave. Flara prayed that it wouldn't cause a cave in.

"I'm sorry Koga." Flara apologized. "I didn't mean to make you mad. I just was curious."

"It's OK. Everything will be different ina little while, as long as we keep working on our plan." Koga replied as he sat down, leaning against the wall of the cave. He looked towards the opening of the cave. It was getting dark, and others in his tribe were getting ready for sleep. "It's getting dark, you should get ready to rest." Koga told Flara, but when he turned to look at her, she was gone. "Huh? Where did she go?" Koga asked himself as he looked around to see Flara sitting down surrounded by children who were ready for bed. Most of the children slept together while their parents were out for a night run or were patroling the area. He wondered what Flara was doing. Then she started to sing.

There's a song that inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again.
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But you sing to me over and over and over again.

So I lay my head back down,
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only your.
I know now you're my only hope.

Koga watched as she sang to the children, as they all fell asleep to the sound of her voice. Something about the sound of her voice even calmed Koga when just a few seconds ago he was a stress ball, thinking about how Kagome probably wouldn't run to him even if the mutt broke her heart and how she always went back to Inuyasha no matter what he did. But he suddeny felt so relaxed.

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.

So I lay my head back down,
Ad I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.

I give you my destiny.
I'm giving you all of me.
I want your symphony.
Singing in all that I am.
At the top of my lungs,
I'm giving it back.

So I lay my head back down,
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours.
I pray to be only yours.
I know now you're my only hope.

Flara's song was over, and all the children were sound alseep. Actually, the whole wolf tribe was asleep. She stood up and found her way back to Koga with the littlest amout of light that can into the cave. She sat next to him to find that he also had fallen asleep.

She stared at him for a moment, gazing upon his sleepig body. She looked at him, wondering how he could ever look so at peace when everytime she saw him he seemed by about on thing or another. Maybe there was a soft side to him, and not the grumpy, I-want-Kagome side of him that she always saw. It made her wonder before she soon found a spot to lay down where Koga had probably slept before she came, on the soft furs. She felt bad laying here while Koga slept against the cold rock walls of the cave. But she pushed the thought to the back of her mind before she soon drifted off into slumber.

The next morning...

Flara woke up feeling warm. Then she felt like she was with someone. She opened her eyes to find herselfin Koga's arms, and not in the bed she had origonally gone to sleep in the night before. Her hand laid on his chest and his arm was around her waist. He probably thought I was Kagome and wrapped me up in his arms. Flara thought before she heard Koga mumbled her name in his sleep. Her eyes went wide. He was thinking of her, not Kagome. What the hell? Flara thought as she looked at him. Then she smiled. He liked her. She rested her head against his chest. maybe Koga would end up coming around before Inuyasha did. Flara hoped so. She hated fooling with Inuyasha, especially when Kagome loved him and she knew he loved Kagome. But she would go along with Koga's ame for a little bit longer.

Then, Koga slowly opened his eyes, and Flara pretended she was asleep. She figured she might as well play around with his head a little. She felt Koga jumped when he noticed her cuddled up next to him.

"Flara?" Koga asked as he shook her lightly. "Flara, wake up." He said softly, not wanting to move, even though he knew he had to wake her up.

"Koga." She mumbled in her sleep, even though it was all pretend. Hey! Her mom didn't teach her how to act for nothing. She listened and could hear his heart beating faster.

"Umm... Flara. Wake up." Koga said, but only recieved a moan of discomfort from Flara as she cuddled closer to him. Koga's cheeks were getting red and Flara heard his heart beat even faster. This pleased her greatly as she continued pretending to be asleep. This just might save her from having to fool with Inuyasha today. She was surprised that Koga didn't just get up and let her fall to the floor.

After a moment, Flara decided that was enough of that. So she opened her eyes slowly as if she were just waking up. She looked at Koga. "Morning." She said with a smile that practically made Koga melt. "Sorry about that. I guess I slept walked or something."

"Umm..." Koga was speachless. What in the Hell had this girl done to him. He could even feel his cheeks burning. Then he saw Flara start to giggle. "What?"

"You're blushing. It's cute." Flara replied with a smile. Then she shook her head and stood up and stretched a bit while Koga wtched her. She felt him staring at her. "Something I can help youwith Wolf Boy?" Flara asked as she strectched.

"N-nothing." Koga said as he looked away from her.

Flara's plan was totally working, she honestly didn't think it would. Koga was acting like a childish boy. "I guess I'll go get Inuyasha again today then?"

"What do you-" Koga almost yelled, saying something about not wanting her to go to Inuyasha, but caught himself and backtracked. "Umm... I mean, yeah." Koga said.

"OK. I'll be back before sundown." Flara said before she dashed out of the cave, Koga watching her as she went.

AN- OK. There's another chapter of this. What did you think? Wait, no. Tell me in a review. Sry I haven't updated in a while. Heh. Plz R&R. Thanx! TTFN!
