Smile Like You Mean It
Chapter 44: Let Go
"Ughn…" Kagome mumbled rubbing her head and squinting from the brightness of the sun outside. She sat up, closed her eyes, and let out a deep breath and rubbed her arms. "Ugh, im sore all over…." she whispered and slowly put her clothes on.
She stepped out of the tent and looked around. Sesshomaru wasn't in the tent when she woke up and he wasn't out here but the fire was going. She frowned and figured he left her in the morning like he said he would. She lifted her jeans up and took her socks off and walked into the creek attempting to get some fish or something for her breakfast when she heard a muffled cough from behind her.
She froze then slowly turned around to see Sesshomaru standing there with an arm load of fish and a frown though if you got close enough to look into his eyes you'd see a bit of held back laughter from the odd sight of Kagome trying to catch fish.
"Oh shut up." She said walking back out with now wet jeans. She growled and took them off hanging them up and putting on some light blue pajama pants.
She sat down and moved the fish looking at the slight look Sesshomaru gave her when she openly ripped her pants off and put another pair on. She smiled a bit and went back to the fish, a sad look replacing her once happy one.
'now I want to stay with him. What am I kidding? I cant make it on my own, maybe I should ask him if he'd still let me come back…' she thought glumly. It wasn't just Sesshomaru she'd miss. She'd miss Shippo and Rin too.
"Sesshomaru…"
"Yes?"
"How are shippo and rin?"
"Fine."
"Would you…let me stay with you again if I changed my mind?"
"Yes"
"Would you let me go on my way if I still want to go my own way?"
"Yes."
She felt relief flood through her.
"Reconsidering?"
"Maybe…"
"I wouldn't mind if you came back." He said lowly. "I do not want you to through your life away."
She didn't know how to answer (half that and half because I don't know what to write. Shhhh).
"How would I be throwing my life away!" She asked a little angrily.
He just kept quiet and gave her a sideways glance. Deep inside he was cracking up but didn't want to ruin the hints that she's coming back by a rude comment.
Her left eye started twitching and she pouted and took a rather angry bite out of her fish before throwing it to the fire. She stood up and stomped into the tent taking out her diary.
Dear Die-ary,
OKAY! This is OFFICALLY….weird? Yeah yeah weird. Okay first off, we did…something….last night, which was great but now I want to stay with him and I miss my little Shippo and Rin ;-; but….I don't want to seem dependant on him so I don't know! Im so fucking confused! RAWR! eats pencil okay calm yourself Kagome, just go with him, you still like him…a lot and last night had to have proved something didn't it? He doesn't seem like someone who would pull off a one night stand. Ugh so confusing…I should make a fortune teller for this like a did as a kid busts out fortune teller worthy paper m'kay…FUCK! Even the teller is telling me to go with him! I did it 13 times and I only wrote "go with him" once! In the EIGHT sections! Is that even humanly possible? To get it so many times! Im so lost, I should though I should I should I should. Okay I will.
Love
Kagome.
She looked down at the fortune teller which was now crumpled and in a pile of shreds after getting "go with him" 7 out of 13 times and the worst part was, it seemed to change numbers…which is creepy. DAMN YOU FATE! She stared at her stuff and started packing because whether he kept his word to let her come with him or not she still needs to packed up. After getting all the stuff in the tent in her backpack she violently kicked it out of the tent (missing Sesshomaru by a mere 5 centimeters.) and climbed out of it herself. She death glared the tent then turned to Sesshomaru.
"Um…"
"Can you come with me? Yes." He said without looking up from his fish.
"How did you know?"
"You were almost yelling your…die-ary entry."
"Ah…shit." she mumbled and turned around to mess with the little tent and attempt to put it down. After an hour or so of tangling with the demonic tent she finally got it to cooperate and stuck it back in her backpack. She stood up disheveled but with a proud look in her eyes.
"I DID IT!" She cheered.
He looked up from the dieing fire to her and had the strongest urge to sweat drop (SEE! I'm trying to not make him so…OOC but I'll make them his inner thoughts, damn Megan your smart).
"I can see that." He stood up and kicked some dirt into the fire to not risk the whole you can prevent forest fires thing, we wouldn't want a guest appearance of Smokey do we? I'm only a fan fiction writer…I wish not to be sued because I destroyed an imaginary forest! (does napoleon dynamite GOD).
"So…I guess that means…your going home? And I'm tagging along."
"No."
"Nani desu ne?"
"I'm not going home, we are." (HAHA! Cheesy moments are painful to write shudder)
"Oh god."
"What?"
She started laughing then fell on the floor. "oh sweet jesus christ on a stick that was cheesy." she coughed and punched her chest lightly regaining her composure. "okay, anyway, lets not try and ruin this Kagome." She said out loud.
Sesshomaru looked at her.
"What the hell?"
"wow, that was out of character."
"not really."
"how?"
"please, you cant possibly tell me you cant see me saying what the hell?"
"I just did"
"and there's your answer"
"Ahhh…"
"let's go. (AHH so close to the chapter title!)"
"Alrighty."
They started walking off in…some direction…that leads to Sesshomaru's house, oh god, yes I am a brilliant writer!

"sango…what in the name of hell are you wearing?" Miroku asked his pregnant lover (aww kawaii).
"this?" She tugged at the orange Kyo Fruits basket cap. "its something Kagome left me, and I just remembered I have it."
"what the fuck" Inuyasha said walking into the hut with a bundle full of fish. "sango.."
" What the hell am I wearing? I refuse to answer that same question twice."
Inuyasha growled and literally through the fish onto the floor with a sickening smack and shlipped (misspelled purposely) out of the hut only to get hit with a random thick tree branch that magically appeared there. Inuyasha fell to the ground withering in pain.
Miroku sighed as Sango tried to reposition the hat and he step outside accidently stepping on our dear Inuyasha's chest.
"Oh holy!" Miroku flew back and landed painfully on his side.
"Miroku you damned monk watch were you walk!"
"Well I wasn't EXPECTING a fallen friend laying spread eagle right outside of the door." Miroku said a little rudely rubbing his left hip bone.
"Miroku what did you do to the poor heart broken Hanyou of ours?"
"He's not ours"
"You know what I mean"
"Do I don't"
"Go jump off a cliff"
"Alrighty then" Miroku stood up and saluted only to be dragged down by the demon slayer.
"what did you do?"
"I kinda…stepped on him? Butididntmeanitiswear!"
Sango sighed and let him go.
"Watch were you step"
"That's what he said."
"go to bed"
Miroku pouted and walked into the corner, crossed his arms and closed his eyes.
Authors note: yes its short and yes Miroku acted like a 6 yr old. But do any of you really care? HEY NEXT CHAPTER IS THE LAST ONE! REPEAT THE LAST ONE!
