Inuyasha's Confession

Kagome walked quietly into the woods for sometime away from everyone . She was too

stressed about whether she should stay or not . She and Inuyasha had been

fighting for almost 5 days now . She wanted more than anything to stay with her

friends , and most of all with Inuyasha . But her heart broke alittle more every time they fought ,

she knew it couldn't stand too many more fights , and she loved him so much that she feared

leaving him aswell . When she knew she was far enough away from camp that no one could

disturb her thinking , she sat down gently , sitting on her knees so in case someone would happen

to stumble upon her (especially Miroku!) , they couldn't see up her green school uniform skirt .

She remembered once when she was mad at Inuyasha , she left him. She had caught Inuyasha

with Kikyo . She remembered how much that hurt . She could feel the ache in her heart to forget

that memory , to pretend it never happened . But then she remembered why that memory was so

special . When her heart was longing to see him once more , she knew she had to go back , but

she feared that would be the last time . The only reason she had to go back was the fact that she

had the jewel shards still . So if she saw him that last time , to return the jewel shards , that would

be goodbye , the last time she saw Inuyasha ,her beloved Inuyasha. A tear rolled down her

cheek . She hated that thought of leaving him , but she knew the best part of her memory

was still to come . She finally decided to return to him and give him another chance , and if

he chose Kikyo over her , then so be it , at least he'd still be her friend . At the same time ,

Sango and Miroku had convinced Inuyasha to go see Kagome and apologize and ask her

back . He finally , after being his typical stuburn self and arguing , went to see Kagome .

When Kagome made it through to Inuyasha's time , she saw him walking toward her , she

quickly glanced back down to the ground before he saw her . He looked up and saw

Kagome's beautiful black hair gently swaying in the wind . She looked up to him when she

felt his eyes on her . They talked for a minute or two and began walking back to the others ,

and Kagome reached down and held Inuyasha's hand . He felt her delicate sweet hands in

his and he closed his around hers . She felt her heart race at the thought of him holding her

hand all the way back to camp .

Then , suddenly , Kagome felt someone watching her , she looked around . No sign of

anyone on the ground . Then she looked up into the treetops to check for that sneeking dog-

boy Inuyasha . She searched closely with her beautiful eyes , making sure no one was there

, no demons , good or bad , she wanted no one around her . When she was sure that no one

was there she looked down to the ground again and sighed . "I did hope it was Inuyasha."

she said outloud , knowing no one was there .

"Inuyasha would never ask me to stay with him ." Kagome let out with a sigh .

"Who am I kidding , he doesn't love me , except as a friend . But I want more , more than

friendship , more than what there is . I love Inuyasha , but he doesn't me . I have to forget

about him or I will never move on . But..." she said with a sigh and a tear begining to show

itself on her cheek . "...I don't want to ." she said and began crying . Inuyasha could hear

her and jumped down from the tree he was hiding in . "Kagome ..." he said as he jumped

down and began walking toward her . She quickly dries up her tears so he couldn't see

them . "Oh uh... Inuyasha ... I was just uh ... just um..." she said standing and looking away

from him . "Kagome ... I know why you were crying ...I ...I was watching you from the

tree." he said pointing to the tree he had just jumped out of . " What? Watching

me...why?" she said alittle angered yet glad to know he was there . " I wanted to make sure

you would be safe ... I didn't want anything to happen to you . I was worried about you

Kagome." he said looking into her eyes with a sweet look of love and concern . Kagome's

heart raced , she was shocked by what he had told her , he cared about her safety ? He was

worried about her? " Kagome... I know why you were crying ... because of me , because we

were fighting , because you ... you love me . And you aren't sure if you should stay with me

or not..." he said looking down to the ground now , fearing to look in her eyes , fearing her

reaction to what he planned to tell her . " Kagome ... I want you to stay with us ... to stay

with me I mean . Kagome...I ...I ...love you..." he said to her as he looked back up into her

eyes . She smiled , tears forming in her eyes , and embraced Inuyasha with a tremendous

hug . He smiled when she did and he wrapped his arms around her . "I love you too ,

Inuyasha..." she said looking into his big beautiful eyes . They then began walking back

toward camp , hand in hand , not realizing they were being watched.
