"Kagome!"
He… he said my name, now I know this is a dream! Kagome thought as her eyes were fixed on Inuyasha's mouth and the whisper of the name that escaped his sweet tempting lips. Joy couldn't even define the feeling she had when she heard her name spoken so sweetly from his lips. The emotion was too big to contain, to big to not do anything about it. Kagome gazed at his lips as she let her body guide her towards him. Without thought, Kagome closed her eyes her eyes as she made her way towards his kissable lips. She felt the warmth of Inuyasha's lips as she shyly kissed him, feeling his moist lips caress her own.
As Kagome was about to let out a sigh for the moment, ready to break off from Inuyasha, his lips came to life and he slowly kissed her back. Inuyasha's hand slowly left her waist as he cupped her face to caress and hold her as he kissed her back. From shy and hesitant, his lips became firm, demanding as though he was possessive over Kagome's lips. He kissed her with urgency, as though her lips were the water he desperately thirsted for, as though they held the secret of life. His kiss ignited a passion, a desire in Kagome she never knew she had before. She took a hold of his face into her hands as she kissed him desperately back. Why would Kagome need air when Inuyasha was everything she needed?
The kiss could have gone forever if their lungs didn't need air to survive. Inuyasha slowly ended the kiss; his lips left hers, yet not before he nibbled her lower lip and growled her name.
Kagome opened her eyes. She was out of breath yet she could only hear the fast beating of her own heart. Her gaze went to Inuyasha. He was mere inches away from her face, his lips still puckered and red. Inuyasha's eyes were still closed as he savored the moment. How this dream felt real, so close to reality that he could truly feel Kagome next to her, taste Kagome's perfect lips, smell her heavenly smell that surrounded him.
Inuyasha's fast beating heart stopped, his senses suddenly screamed at him. There was another smell around him, faint yet as real as the moon and the stars. Salt, bitter salt that only came out of tears, Kagome's tears. This isn't a dream! Inuyasha realized as he opened his eyes. Kagome's eager eyes stared back at him as a shy smiled appeared on her face. Oh no! What have I done! Inuyasha thought as he realized that he was beside Kagome, stretched alongside her, on her bed. His body went on full alert, Inuyasha responded in full instinct as he let go of Kagome' s face and leapt out of her bed.
Kagome's smile disappeared as sudden hurt flashed in her eyes.
"What… what… wha…" Inuyasha mumbled, looking around the room, not knowing where to go and what to say.
Kagome looked down at her bed, her head suddenly too heavy to dare gaze into Inuyasha's face again. She slowly got up from her bed as she crossed her feet and sat on the bed, her pillow against her slow breaking heart.
"This wasn't suppose to happen!" Inuyasha whispered to himself as he prowled around the room, eyes averting the bed and especially Kagome.
Kagome squeezed the pillow harder as she heard his words, her heart feeling the full extent to that hurtful declaration.
Silence separated them, as well as distance as neither knew what to say or do. Inuyasha was prowling around the room, arguing to himself and his actions. Kagome stood still on the bed, hugging the pillow tighter against her chest, hoping for it to silence her slow breaking heart.
Finally after what seemed like an eternity, Inuyasha stopped in his tracks, his stance stiff, ready for the upcoming battle.
"Look, Kagome… about before… I …. " the next words escaped him, he knew not what else to say.
"Don't say it didn't happen, please don't say that!" Kagome whispered, her eyes still averting him.
"…" Inuyasha let out a sigh not knowing what to say, he could only hear her fragile voice, hear her heart breaking plea.
"It happened! I can't deny that…"
Kagome's head rose as she heard him.
"But it can't ever happen again!"
Sudden disbelief filled Kagome and slowly got replaced in anger. She abruptly threw the pillow on the bed and got off the bed and faced Inuyasha.
"Why?... it wasn't good? Not like when you kissed your precious Kikyo?" Kagome spat out
"No! I didn't say that! … it just can't happen again!" Inuyasha growled back, as a hint of anger joined his words.
"That's not a good enough answer! I deserve a better one!" Kagome said as she fisted her hands.
"Well I can't give you anything ok wench, you need to accept that!"
"Accept this, accept that! Is that all you can say? Is that how you defend yourself… well you know what… I won't, I refuse to accept that!" Kagome's voice raised higher as she emphasized every word.
Inuyasha growled at her, his gaze upon her as she stood before him like a fellow warrior, an equal. Only she would stand up to me and not be afraid of me. Inuyasha's whole body screamed for him to kiss her, to make her his, to truly make her his equal, his mate.
"I'm leaving… we'll talk about this tomorrow!" Inuyasha said, afraid he wouldn't be able to hold his hard driven emotions back, afraid he would hurt her. Inuyasha was mere inches from jumping out of the window when he heard…
"YOU COWARD!" Kagome screamed at him, her eyes sparkling with unshed tears.
Inuyasha's head whipped back to her and her words as he stalked back and faced her.
"How dare you say that! I have never been a coward in my life. I have stood before losing battle, I have…"
"You're a coward; you're running away from me!"
"…" Inuyasha stood before her speechless, not knowing what to do or say.
"You know what, fine then, leave! Walk away! I don't care anymore; you are to me what I am to you…. NOTHING!"
Kagome turned around and walked away from him, her anger so intense that her whole body shook.
Suddenly strong arms grabbed her and turned her around to face an angered Inuyasha.
"Who said you were nothing, I never said you were nothing!" He slowly said every word, controlling his volcanic anger.
"Let me go Inuyasha!" Kagome said, feeling her tears ready to fall.
Still Inuyasha's hands didn't move, his grip on her stayed true.
"NO!"
Kagome felt defeated as her tears cascaded down her face, still, she didn't look away from Inuyasha's face. She looked into his eyes and asked him the one question she needed an answer. The one answer that would change her life forever.
"Why?"
Inuyasha stared at Kagome as he heard her question. He knew her tears were coming, smelled them the moment he jumped out of the bed. Still, there was a difference from smelling them to actually seeing them. Her eyes were full of sadness, yet the tears made her eyes twinkle in a way that it seemed her eyes held the stars in place, that Kagome was the center of the universe. A few lonesome tears kisses her face as they slowly rolled down her eyes, caressing her cheeks in the way Inuyasha yearned, till they disappeared. There was no better time that Inuyasha wished he was Kagome's tears, not the person who caused them.
"Inuyasha… Inuyasha… INUYASHA!" Kagome said as she waved her hand in front of his face, seeing his eyes gazed over, his mind elsewhere.
"huh?" Inuyasha said as he shook his head from his present thoughts.
Kagome let out a sigh of defeat. The best moment of her life turned into a disaster. She got her answer from him, he didn't care.
"LEAVE!" She said, not wanting to talk to him anymore, wanting him to leave so she could mend her broken heart.
"I said no wench, I'm not leaving" Inuyasha bit back
"Inuyasha, SIT!"
Inuyasha's body crushed to the floor as the power of the rosary beads pulled him towards the hard wooden floor.
"leave now or I'll say the word till you leave!" Kagome screamed as more tears cascaded down her cheeks.
Inuyasha's face rose as his gaze met hers and he responded the same word as before… NO!
"sit… sit… sit…. Sit… SIT!" Kagome yelled, her voice broken from the pain she was feeling in hurting Inuyasha.
Inuyasha crushed towards the floor harder and harder. With every sit she screamed his body trembled from the impact.
"Kagome… stop!" Inuyasha spat out, lost for breath.
"… not until you leave… don't make me say the "S" word again" Kagome said, pain clearly heard in her voice
Inuyasha slowly rose to his feet when the spell faded, his muscle and joints aching.
"I'm not leaving till this discussion is over"
"It is over… WE are over!"
"Take it back Kagome, take those words back!" Inuyasha growled
"… just leave and go to the one you love, go to your precious Kikyo" Kagome screamed as she turned away from Inuyasha, ready to leave him once and for all.
Suddenly the full weight of Inuyasha pinned her at the door as he stood before her, eyes full of anger.
"I don't love Kikyo damn it!... I LOVE YOU!"
Kagome took in a sharp breathe as she heard his words, her heart not knowing what to believe. Inuyasha still had his arms wrapped around her, as he had her pinned at the door, his breathing hard and strained from his declaration.
"You're… you're lying" Kagome whispered as he looked into Inuyasha's eyes, trying to see the truth of his words.
Inuyasha let out a growl from her words before he took her lips, kissing her with all of his heart. His kiss was passionate, earth shaking on Kagome's senses, yet still held a gentleness that made Kagome's heart weep in joy. She returned his kiss just as passionately, letting all her emotions show through the kiss.
Inuyasha's kiss slowly calmed down. He broke the kiss every few seconds, nuzzling on her lips, whispering to her "I love you Kagome!" as he kissed her again. Over and over again, praying for her to see it, praying for her to believing him. They expressed their feelings to each other. Words were forgotten, they weren't important anymore. The only thing that mattered was the connection of their lips and the truth of their feelings behind every kiss.
Kagome doesn't remember when they moved, from the door, but she was now back on the bed, snuggling close with Inuyasha. She didn't realize the actions that happened during the kissing, and truly didn't care. The only thing that mattered was that she was with Inuyasha. (but for everyone to know what happened) between kisses, Inuyasha picked her up, as though she was light as a feather, and carried her back on the bed, hugging her close to him. They were in their own bliss, happy to finally be together.
Still, part of Kagome's mind still wondered and Kagome broke the silence between them, wanting to know something.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered, afraid that Inuyasha had fallen asleep
"Hmmm?" Inuyasha mumbled as he nuzzled her forehead, taking a long breath and smelling Kagome all around him.
"Why?... why didn't you ever tell me how you felt?"
Inuyasha took a deep breath before he answered her.
"I've wanted to… for what feels like an eternity but… but I was … afraid. I didn't want you to get hurt; I didn't want Naraku to use you to get to me… I would of rather have you hurt and alive then… then…."
Kagome was speechless from his words, tears gathering in her eyes. Inuyasha suddenly smelled salt coming from Kagome as he raised Kagome's chin to see her face.
"Why are you about to cry…" he said, his voice hesitant, fearful that he hurt her
Kagome shook her head as the tears escaped her and cascading down her face.
"No.. You made me happy!" Kagome said as a smile appeared on her face
"Then why are you crying?" Inuyasha said as he slowly caressed Kagome's cheek and whipped away her tears with his finger.
"They are tears of joy" Kagome said as she took Inuyasha hand into hers and kissed his fingers.
"ohhh!" Inuyasha said, his confusion faded as he could only concentrate on Kagome's touch.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome's muffled voice said as she hugged Inuyasha tighter.
"Hmm?" Inuyasha said as he hugged her back.
"I love you!"
Inuyasha grinned to himself as he heard her words. He kissed the top of her forehead as he held her closer to him. They fell asleep together, knowing the other person was there, finally, in a true lover's embrace.
