Ch 6 Kagome's Feelings

Night was approaching and Inuyasha and Kouga still slept. The others were preparing for bed, everyone but Kagome. Her mind was spinning with thoughts of her conversation with Kouga. Her emotions were overwhelming her and she couldn't think straight and she need to clear her mind. "Sango, I going to go on a walk I'll be back soon." Kagome had already begun to walk away letting her feet guide her when she barely heard Sango.

"Kagome do need company?" Sango nodded in understanding when Kagome shouted back a No. Sango knew what Kagome had on her mind and thought it best for her to be alone.

Kagome's mind wondered as her feet guided her to the place where she found the most comfort in. (Kagome's thoughts) could Kouga be right about what he said? What if he is? Does Inuyasha really Love me? At this thought Kagome's heart felt like it could burst in to a million pieces out of pure joy. Oh God! How am I going to tell him? It's not like I can just walk up to him and say "Inuyasha I love you!" Ah! I'm getting nervous just thinking about this. Maybe if I don't think about it and when I'm ready to tell him….. I'll just speak from the heart. Yeah! That's what I'll do. Kagome sighed with relief as some of her spinning thought were put to rest. But still Kouga's words had done more to Kagome than she realized. Kagome was brought out of thought when her feet all of the sudden stopped walking. Kagome slowly lifted her head to see why she had stopped. There before her was a magnificent tree. This place had more meaning to her than any other place to Kagome. This tree held so many dear memories and this tree witnessed most of her life too. Memories began to flood Kagome's mind….

Memory

A young Kagome smiled a toothy grin and her new brother. He was wrapped up in his yellow blanket as Kagome's mother held him under the sacred tree. Kagome was filled with so much joy she thought she would explode with complete happiness. She had always wanted to be an older sister and now she could be. Kagome stared in awe at the incredibly small baby before her. She was amazed at how little he really was. The baby began to cry in his mother's arm. Kagome was extremely worried when her baby brother began to cry, was something wrong? Kagome asked if she could hold her baby brother and her mom hesitantly handed him over. The moment Kagome held her brother he instantly stopped crying. He opened his bright brown eyes and looked straight into his sister's eyes. At that moment Kagome swore that she would never forget the day she got her tiny brother and how much joy he brought to her life…

Burning hot tears poured down Kagome's face and she felt like a knife had been stabbed into her chest. The young girl wrapped her arms around her knees as she sat against the tree. This tree was where her dad first taught her how to ride a bike. Right here was where he used to tell stories to Kagome on the warm summer days. Kagome just couldn't believe that he was gone. It felt like a piece of her was gone, missing, and she couldn't find it. Her dad meant the world to her and she couldn't help but be a little angry with him leaving her behind. He always said that she was he little girl and that he would always love her, so why, why had he left her behind with all this pain. A sob escaped her mouth as she felt such a great amount of despair. Today had been his funeral and Kagome had put on a brave face while other people were around her but the moment they were gone she ran, ran to the one place she felt safe. The one place where she could cry and no one would know. The one place she would always remember him at, the one place she still felt comfort. The leaves of the tree began to fall down matching the mood of Kagome so well. The leaves were just like Kagome, they were just like her spirit crashing down on the Earth. Kagome cried until she slowly fell asleep against the tree….

The tree was even there for her after she met Inuyasha…

Kagome sat on the brim of the well ready to return the jewel shard and be done with Inuyasha and the feudal era forever. But fear clung to Kagome and she couldn't make herself jump into the well. She feared not being able to see Inuyasha ever again. Kagome thought back to the day before…

flashback

Inuyasha turned around and realized that Kagome had seen everything that he had said to Kikyo. Kagome just stared into his eyes, they were speaking for themselves. His eyes seemed to say 'I'm sorry Kagome but I just can't love you, I love Kikyo…"

End of Flashback

Kagome felt the pure jealously consume her she could help but yell. "I wish Kikyo would just disappear out of our lives forever!" Kagome's eyes grew wide in shock. As she slowly began to walk out of the well house she could help but think of how horrible she sounded. "I probably have a horrible look on my face right now; Inuyasha can't see me like this." Kagome walked over to the sacred tree as the jewel shard started to glow. Her hand slowly pressed against the rough bark this is were I first saw Inuyasha. If I would have know that meeting him would have been so painful I wish I never would have gone back… Right then Kagome's mom walked up to her Kagome threw her arms around her and cried. Her mom then told her how pure the tree truly was and how this was the place where Kagome's dad proposed to her the day before they had gotten into a fight and Kagome's mom was feeling doubt that they belonged together but the second she was under the tree she knew she loved him and she agreed to marry him. Kagome smiled and thanked her mom. Starring up into the sky Kagome realizes that her and Kikyo aren't so different because no matter how had she tries she can never be apart from Inuyasha……because she... she loves him. No matter whom Inuyasha loved or what he did to her she couldn't help but always come back. She could never be apart because without him by her side she felt empty and not whole. He was the missing puzzle piece and without him she was unfinished. Right then Kagome knew how much the tree meant to her; it was the most important place to her. It was the place where she discovered she was in love with Inuyasha. Wiping away her last she plunged into the well ready to face the person she loved so much again… Kagome climbed out of the well and walked over to the tree she heard Inuyasha walking over to her. Kagome looked up at him her voice seemed to have left her so she could only whisper " Inuyasha", Inuyasha had a serious look on his face and he interrupted her

"Kagome you shed tears for my sake, you never left my side no matter what happened when I'm around you I feel happy and peaceful but I can't always be happy and peaceful.

Kagome couldn't help but simile sadly "I know I can never match Kikyo but I've been thinking and I've realized we share one common bond we both want to be with you that common bond made me feel easier about Kikyo. Inuyasha" she hesitated "will you let me stay with you?"

Inuyasha looked more confuse then he has ever been "you wish to stay with me" Kagome smiles and grabbed his hand. I just want you to be happy I want you to laugh and smile and I won't leave your side…

Laughter fill the area, today was a perfect day it was warm and no demons in sight. Kagome had spent all morning on the picnic she prepared. Sango and Miroku were talking and enjoying their homemade lunch. The weather was so beautiful today that those two decided to take their lunch and eat on top the hill looking over the meadow of flowers. Shippo was off chasing butterflies and enjoying the summer's day. Underneath the sacred tree was where all the laughter was coming from. There Kagome and Inuyasha were enjoying their picnic. Kagome was laughing uncontrollably at the sight before her. There was Inuyasha with a butterfly on his nose. The butterfly would not move and Inuyasha was sitting there crossed eyed and he was not very happy with this situation. Kagome thought that he looked so adorable she just couldn't help but laugh. Inuyasha began to growl at the butterfly and with much frustration "Could you please help me god damnit!" With a small smile Kagome went to swat away the butterfly. Finally the butterfly flew away after many tries but with the last sway of Kagome's hand she lost her balance. Closing her eyes expecting to fall, waiting for the impact but it never came. She slowly opened eyes to see that she was in Inuyasha arms. Blush crept over both of their cheeks. Kagome muttered a sorry but all Inuyasha could say was "Feh" Inuyasha put his hands of Kagome's shoulders and turned her around so that her back was against his chest. Kagome laid there with him against the tree in peace. Slowly she began to drift to sleep in his arms but the last thing she heard was Inuyasha mumbling something about clumsy wrenches…

End of Memories

Kagome slowly walked up to the sacred tree. She sat down and leaned up against the tree looking up to the starry sky. Kagome felt so at ease under the tree, this place truly helped her think clearly. She sighed and closed her eyes letting her mind drift. Emotions overwhelmed Kagome she once again felt al the pain, fear, jealously and joy again from all of the memories. But even though she felt the sadness and the pain it didn't matter to Kagome. Because, out of all the feelings that were consuming her one stood above all the rest. Love. Even though she felt the pain the love and joy she felt over powered all other feelings. All the raw emotions were just too much for Kagome. Kagome slowly opened her eyes and one lone tear escaped her eye and slowly trickled down her face. Kagome looked up into the sky. A shooting Star shot across the sky and a small smile spread over Kagome's face. A sense of peace finally took Kagome. Kagome's tear was falling through the air and it splashed against the earth. The second her tear hit the ground someone elsewhere finally open his eyes…….
