Hey everyone! I am so sorry that I haven't gotten around to updating! Yes Caroline I know I lied to you countless times but like I said I'd update tonight! Of course it's almost 1 am now. I was having fun playing dress up! Hope you like the chapter.

Kagome once again found herself in the dream realm. The place where we all travel to in our sleep. A place where anything is real and everything goes. She could hear a voice talking to her but she couldn't quite understand what the muffled voice was saying. Someone was calling out to her, telling her something important she assumed, but she couldn't decipher the words. Finally she could tell that it was Inuyasha. She distinctly knew his voice anywhere. It took quite a long time, but she was ultimately able to understand what he was saying.

"Kagome can you hear me? Kagome?"

"Yes Inuyasha, I can hear you."

"Kagome what's wrong? I can hear the uncertainty in your voice."

"Inuyasha how do I know if you're even real?"

"Kagome I can't believe that you would even think that! Especially after all we've done together! Everything we've sacrificed!"

"Well Inuyasha it makes perfect sense! I mean how come I can only talk to you in my sleep? Why would everyone else tell me that you didn't exist if in fact you did? Why? Can you explain that to me?"

"Kagome, don't let them get you down. Disperse all those thoughts from your head. That is just what Naraku wants you to believe. Kagome nothing you are experiencing is real. This is all just a ploy that Naraku has set up to destroy us! I promise Kagome I will save you. I just need you to fight! I need for you to fight, if not for yourself then for us, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, me. Kagome we need you! Why can't you understand that."

"Inuyasha."

"Kagome no. Please just don't let go. I will find a way to bring you back to us. Please just don't give up on us." At that moment a vision of Inuyasha appeared at her side. He grabbed her hands in his. There was a hint of desperation behind the amber gleam of his eyes. Kagome could sense the urgency behind his words and actions.

"Oh Inuyasha I wish that there was someway to prove that this was true. As much as I want to believe you, I don't think that I can. You have got to understand me Inuyasha. They have me locked up in a little room. I can't live like this Inuyasha. I need to be free of this place. I fear that my wits are already beginning to leave me even though I've only been here a day. I broke my leg and my spirit was crushed trying to get back to you."

"Kagome let this be a reason enough for you." Inuyasha leaned down and captured her lips beneath his. Kagome jumped a little in surprise, unsure of what to do. She hadn't expected this from him. After a couple of seconds she happily returned the kiss. There was nothing that could've gotten through to her more clearly than that action. She had been waiting for this moment since the moment she fell in love with Inuyasha. Real or not she wouldn't let this moment slip by. She was finally being accepted by the man that she loved most. "Kagome."

"Yes Inuyasha."

"Never stop believing. That's what Naraku wants. If you stop believing we will disappear from your life forever." He pulled her into a tight hug. She felt a tear of his drop down from his eyes, splashing against her cheek. "Kagome I couldn't bear to lose you to."

Kagome still wasn't sure of what was happening. Was this for real or just a wonderfully fabricated dream? Either way she would try to keep a grasp on Inuyasha. She would've done anything for him at that moment.

Far too soon for her liking, Inuyasha and his embrace began to fade. She could still feel him around her. His eyes were locked on hers. Neither of them looking away, afraid that if they let go the other would be gone. As they faded away Inuyasha said,"Kagome I love you."

"Inuyasha I love you too." Then as they words were said Kagome's eyes opened to the bright sunlight. She could still feel Inuyasha's arms around her, the feel of his lips on hers. She wrapped her arms around herself not wanting to loose the sensation, still too shocked to believe that it actually happened. Then she heard a rap on the door that brought her back to reality. A new day was dawning and it was time that she opened her eyes to how cold the world could actually be.

Well I know that this was short, but come on it had to be at least a little cute! I'm really tired and I still have to take a shower! I swear that I will update more tomorrow! Plz tell me what ya thought though. The more encouragement I get, the longer the chapter will be!

ttyl,
