Chapter 4: Misunderstandings


"Inuyasha, how do you feel about me?" Kagome said with a serious face.

Inuyasha didn't speak at first. He opened his mouth trying to speak, but all of a sudden, Miroku came back to them, screaming at them.

"Come ON, guys! We need to leave this place. These western fields have too many youkias." said Miroku.

"Ok, ok.." muttered Inuyasha.

He left Kagome and ran up to Miroku, totally ignoring Kagome's question.

"I guess I'll ask him next time.." Kagome sighed.

—Out Of The Western Fields—

"Ahh..This feels so good." said Kagome.

The wind there in the wide open plains was great. The sky was blue, and full of clouds. The tall grass swayed sideways from the wind, and the sun shined down on the gang.

Kagome layed down on the ground to rest. She stretched out her arms and yawned. It's been far too long since she's felt such relaxing air.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha called.

Sango was sitting next to Miroku, both of them close together, talking peacefully.

Kagome got up, and went over to Inuyasha to see what was wrong. She sat down next to him.

"Did you sense any signs of the Shikon Shards when we were going around the place?" he asked.

"Well, no...I was–No. I didn't sense anything." she said.

"This is going to take a long time.." Inuyasha muttered.

"Yeah, I know."

"Well then, why don't we start off to search now?"

"Nahh..let's just rest here for a while.." Kagome said.

Kagome layed her head on Inuyasha's shoulder and feel off to a little dream. Inuyasha flushed red, but he layed his head close next to Kagome's cheek.

—Over to Miroku's Side—

"Oooh...look at that." Miroku said.

"Eh?" Sango said.

She turned her head around to see what it was. When she saw what Miroku was talking about she looked back at him with a disgusted look.

"Augh. Don't peek at other's business." Sango thought shaking her head.

Then, all of a sudden, Miroku decided on something.

"Sango, we should do that too." he said.

Miroku all of a sudden pulled her tightly in his arms, and SMACK! Sango smacked him with her free hand.

—Later at night, still in the plains—

Kagome was still next to Inuyasha, but they were both lying down on the grass, staring up at the starry night sky.

"Inuyasha..." said Kagome softly.

"What?" he said.

"You never did give me an answer.."

Inuyasha sat up. He was sweating though, and he couldn't think of what to say.

"Inuyasha..." Kagome said on.

"W-what does it matter anyway!" Inuyasha stuttered. "What brought this up!"

Kagome sprung up and looked at him.

"Hmph. So I guess you have no feelings for me?" Kagome said.

"T-that's not it."

"So then, what is it? Do you still like Kikyo?" Kagome pried on.

"Keh! And why do I have to tell you? You're not anybody special." he muttered.

Kagome started to turn pink. Her eyes got red. Then, she started sniffle. She turned around.

"H-hey, w-what is it?" Inuyasha said.

"NOTHING! I guess I'm nothing but your shard detector after all! Kouga was right." she said angrily.

"WHAT! Who said that?" Inuyasha got up.

"Well, I'm nobody special!" Kagome said getting up too.

Kagome was jealous of Kikyo all the time. She hoped nothing would bring her name up, but she just did.

"Inuyasha wouldn't tell me if he liked her, so I guess he still does." Kagome thought.

"FINE! I don't care anymore!" said Kagome. "I guess you really don't like me! Miroku shouldn't have told you to try and talk to me after all!"

"Huh? What brought up Miroku," Inuyasha thought.

Inuyasha suddenly remembered at the beginning that Miroku tried to tell him to talk to her. But then, Kagome shouted "OSUWARI" many times at him, which pissed him off.

"You listened to our conversation?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yeah! AND SO WHAT IF I DID!" Kagome said through sobs.

Kagome choked up. She couldn't speak no more. She looked down, her tears flowing onto the grass.

Suddenly, Inuyasha got it. He understood what Kagome was talking about and went over to her.

"Maybe...maybe Kagome really does have the same feelings as me.." Inuyasha thought.

"Kagome...I think I understand you now. I'm sorry. This is all my fault. But, you've got the wrong idea about what Miroku was trying to tell me."

"H-huh?" said Kagome looking up at him.

Kagome's face was pinkish. She rubbed her tears off her face, trying to dry them.

"Miroku was trying to make me tell you something. But I couldn't. So, I'm sorry for making you go through all this..." said Inuyasha.

"So then, what couldn't you tell me?" said Kagome.

BAM! Inuyasha's face turned red as a tomato.

"Peh. You really don't need to know. It'll just make you worry too much." he lied.

"TELL ME!" Kagome ordered him. She held his sleeves tightly in her hands as if to say, "I won't let go of you unless you tell me!"

So, Inuyasha had no choice but to tell her. Since he didn't want to review so much, he said it in a simpler version.

"Kagome..." he said.

He took his hands and held hers softly. He then, looked at her intently and said:

"Kagome, I don't hate you...I never would."
