Chapter Six: Summer Days and Problems Solved
Kagome sat on her bed, viewing her toes. She had just arrived home, having to change out of her torn shirt. She was now wearing a light pink tee, with a dark blue skirt.
She flopped back on her bed, only to see the ceiling. Kagome sighed deeply, before rolling over to her stomach.
"Inuyasha…" she whispered out, a tear slowly creeping their way down her cheek. She buried her face into her arms, only to have more tears run.
A knock came at her door and she fell silence. She looked back up, wiping the tears off her face. She sat up, and coughed.
"Come in," she finally said, making sure everything was in place. She heard the door opened, seeing her mom in the doorway.
"Kagome dear…is everything alright? When you got home, you ran fast to your room," her mom said, leaning on the doorway. Kagome gave her a weak, yet sad smile.
"I am fine mom, really…" Kagome said, tears starting up again on her face. She quickly buried her face into her hands. Her mom closed the door and walked to her bed, sitting on it. She then wrapped her arms around her daughter, rubbing her back.
"Kagome, what is wrong?" she asked, resting her chin on her daughter's head, hearing the tired girl cry on her mom.
Kagome calmed down, sniffing as she told her mom everything from the time Inuyasha avoided her. Kagome's mom took this in, as she rubbed her daughter's shoulder, giving much comfort she could give. When Kagome was finished, her mom let out a sigh.
"I don't know how I can help you Kagome," she said, feeling bad. Kagome smiled sadly.
"I know you can't mom, you didn't have to go through this,"
"Oh but Kagome, I did go through the love circle. Listen Kagome," her mom said, walking to the door, "Listen well too. If Inuyasha truly loves you…he will come around, realizing what he has done. If he so much cares for you that he is welling to die protecting you, then that is love. I am sure he didn't mean too, and from what you said to me…he had no control. I hope you can figure out on your own on what you should do," her mom left the room, leaving Kagome alone. Kagome closed her eyes, flopping back on her bed. She yelled a muffled scream, before sighing.
I do love him…I can't stop thinking about him! I mean…does he love me as much? This is so hard to deal with!
Kagome sat up quickly and looked around. She blinked before she ran out of the room, heading to the bathroom.
Inuyasha sat sadly in a tree, viewing the well. He bit his lower lip, making blood drip slightly down his chin.
"Damn…how could I be so stupid!" he shouted, shaking the trees around him. He balled his hands into fist, feeling the blood run on his claws.
He relaxed now, standing on the branch. He had no idea if Kagome was going to be back, or if he should go and get her. He was lost now. Kagome left to her time because of him.
He huffed, closing his eyes.
Damn! How in hell did I leave my sword! I could have really hurt Kagome…if it wasn't for my weakness. Damn, damn, damn! Now she might never come back and I can't go there…she would freak out…damn.
He stared up at the sky.
I'll wait for at least a week…maybe she would come back…and if she doesn't…then…
Kagome sighed as she rested against the wall. She grumbled at the pain around her stomach, feeling sick in a way. She ran her hand through her hair, mumbling.
Her period had started now, which meant pain for a week. (A/N: -evil, dark, sinister music playing in the background- The one week that comes to a girl every month! OH THE HORROR!)
Kagome walked down the stairs, now wearing black sweatpants. She walked into the kitchen, sitting out a Ramen bowl. She stared at her Ramen, thinking. Tears started to well up in her eyes, as she rubbed them away quickly. She huffed, fixing herself the Ramen.
"After this week, I will go back to Inuyasha," she said, slamming her fist on the counter, only to hiss to the pain.
