Chapter Twelve: I'll Be There
`````Last time``````
Kagome and Kurama shared the last few moments with Inuyasha until he passed away. Kagome was heartbroken and Kurama tried to console her.
"AHHH!!"
They both turned to the direction the scream was coming from. Then an injured bloody Shippo ran to them as a demon was trying to kill him. Kurama immediately destroyed the demon.
"Mamma! They are dead, they killed them. They are gone!" Kagome grew more fear as he spoke.
"Kaede and Sango are gone. So are the villagers. Naraku and Kagura they killed them."
Then Shippo saw a dead Inuyasha lie in the ground. He then looked into a very sad, crying and confused Kagome. Kagome felt dizzy and then she fainted. Kurama caught her. So much was happening to her so fast. Kurama made a promise and he would keep it.
````````Now````````
Three weeks had passed since her friends deaths. Kurama had given them a proper burial. Kagome had locked herself in her room. She was supposed to feel sad and angry but she felt numb. She did not feel anything.
The snow had faded and rain had taken its place. It had been raining hard through out the city. The weather was still cold. Kagome was more behind in school. She decided not to go. There was no point anyway.
She kept remembering how Inuyasha would be so upset when she would go to school. He hated it. He hated every time she would make an excuse that took time away from the search of the jewel hunt. But he did like coming to her time. He was always amazed at how time had changed and how Japan had grown.
"Great, Inuyasha. I made you a promise. I need to keep it but it so hard right now. What am I supposed to do."
Then she heard the door bell ring. She knew it was Kurama. He had been coming to visit her every day. She did not talk to him. Her mom would tell him that she did not want to see anyone at the moment. But he still came by every day to ask how she was doing.
She opened her door and walked down the stairs where no one could see her.
"Hello Mrs. Higurishi."
"Hello Kurama."
"How is Kagome? May I see her?"
"She is in the same state as she was since the beginning."
"Very well. I hope she gets better. May you please tell her that I came by."
"Yes I will do that."
Kagome mentally laughed to herself. Kurama was still going to come by tomorrow and probably everyday after that until he talked to Kagome.
"It's okay. Kurama you could come in."
Both her mother and Kurama were surprised by her. Kurama looked at Kagome and smiled. He was happy that he was able to see her.
"I will go make some tea." Kagome's mother said as she lead Kurama inside the house and took his coat.
"That sounds nice. Would you like me to help you?" Kurama asked pilotely.
"That's nice of you, but it's okay. You go with Kagome."
Kagome was waiting for him, by the stairs. He looked at her and followed. When they entered her room she told him he could sit if he wanted. He chose to stand. Kagome then sat on her bed. They did not talk or move. No one knew what to say.
"How are you doing Kagome?" he felt stupid for asking that question. He did not know what to say to her now. He wanted so bead to see her that he forgot what he wanted to talk about with Kagome. What if she decided that she did not want his company and want him to leave or-
"I have been better." she replied.
He was relived that she spoke. But he could tell that she was still in an state of loss. Her voice held no emotion like it did before. By looking at her eyes as she answered he was able to tell that she seemed lost.
It went quite again for a few minutes.
"Kurama?" he looked at her.
"I need to apologize to you. I am sorry that I was..."
"It is okay Kagome."
She was content that he understood. She stood up and walked to Kurama who was standing by the window. Kurama grew nervous as did she.
"Kurama, thank you."
"For what?"
"You are the only one who has been there for me. You gave my friends a proper burial. You have visited me everyday even though. Even though I ..." she started to cry.
"Kagome it is okay." he wiped her tears away with his hands and lifted her face so that they could see eye to eye.
"Kagome I want to protect you. I want to be there for you. I will always be there for you okay."
"Well you are stubborn."
They smiled. Then he took her into his arms as they embraced. Her warm body felt so soft against his. She smelled so good. He wanted to be like this forever. Kagome also felt the same way. She felt emotions coming back to her. She felt warmness and love. 'Love?' she thought. 'I can't be falling for Kurama can I?'
