Last Time:

Kagome giggled when InuYasha practically begged to come over next week to watch another episode.

"What's so funny?" InuYasha said, crinkling up his small nose.

"It's just," Kagome giggled, "Most of the people that watch this are girls."

InuYasha paled. "You mean…the first television show I ever watched was…for women?"

Kagome was quick to point out that tons of guys watch it, too. InuYasha calmed after that.

Hey, a little lie never hurt anyone.

This Time:

2 hours later

10:15p.m.

Kagome groaned. What is it with her not being able to go to sleep? InuYasha's head rested on her stomach. Kagome tried to scoot out from his hold without waking him up. InuYasha's head hit the pillow lightly. He sat up quickly, eyes open wide, and screamed, "Wha' happened?"

Kagome started to giggle uncontrollably. InuYasha stared at her, blushing red.

Kagome changed into her light blue pajama Capri's and a white t-shirt. Her hair was pulled back into a high ponytail.

She sat down on the side of her bed by the wall. InuYasha's left arm was draped around her shoulders.

(Warning! This is the sad part I was talking about!)

The human and the hanyou stared at each other. Kagome looked up to the ceiling and back to InuYasha quickly.

Should I tell him? She thought.

Um, no! He'll freak out! Another voice in her head screamed.

Kagome eventually went against her conscience and took a deep breath. "I-um, I-I think I-"

Don't do it! Her conscience shrieked. Again, Kagome ignored it.

"-I love you!"

InuYasha tensed. Did she just say what he thought she said?

Well, she must have if she's staring at you for an answer! Baka, say something! Say anything-

"I can't, Kagome." InuYasha whispered, but Kagome caught it anyway. -except that.

"Can-can you tell me why?" Kagome said, giving InuYasha a sad smile that made him guilty for ever doing anything to ever hurt her.

InuYasha looked down. "I just-you don't…." He sighed. "You want a life with pups, and a nice family, with a guy who'll love you forever-"

"So…are you saying that you don't love me?" Kagome interrupted.

"No, no!" InuYasha answered hastily. "It's not that. It's that…"

"Say it." Kagome demanded.

"Fine. I'm a hanyou!"

Kagome raised an eyebrow. "So?"

InuYasha gaped at her. "So? That means that you'll be laughed at, and you should have so much better than that!" He took a deep breath. Kagome started to say something, but he cut her off. "No. You belong here, not with me."

Inuyasha swallowed and reached out to touch her cheek, but she recoiled. Before he could do anything, he jumped out the window.

He's heading for the shrine! Kagome thought frantically. She sprinted down the stairs and to the shrine. With only white socks covering her feet, Kagome jumped in the well after InuYasha.

She climbed out of it quickly and ran in the direction of the Sacred Tree. He'd be there for sure. Sure enough, there he was, sitting at the base of it. Kagome walked up to him carefully.

"InuYasha?"

He looked up. (This is so unlike him, I know! Sorry!) He looked like he was holding back tears.

Kagome slumped to the ground, her head in her hands. She was so cold.

She felt a familiar red overcoat on her shoulders. She was picked up and set on a thick branch. Once InuYasha let go, Kagome lost balance and fell back wards. InuYasha, of course, caught her. She stood up fully, and hugged him tightly.

"I love you, and I don't care if people make fun of me! I don't care!" She sobbed.

InuYasha said to her hair. "Kagome. You would care once it happened to you." She shook her head on his shoulder frantically. "Yes, you would. One day this will all make sense, Kagome. It will, I promise."
