Chapter 2 A Fantasy Finally True

In this chapter both what Inuyasha and Kagome are both longing for…well… I'll let you read to find out yourself.

Kagome went behind a tree and began to cry. She hoped that Inuyasha wouldn't follow her, she didn't want him to know what was wrong. But just her luck, Inuyasha did indeed follow her. He was on the other side of the tree wishing that he could do something to help her.

"I am so stupid!" Kagome cried. "Inuyasha doesn't love me, he never will love me! As long as Kikyou has his heart I don't stand a chance! He needs to get over that dead bitch! What's so good about her anyways? I mean, what does she have that I don't have? I love him so much, but it's better if I just let him go. I can't stand to love someone that doesn't love me. I can't stand this pain. Maybe it would be better if I try and have feelings for him friend wise, maybe it would be better if I never came back here at all."

"Kagome?" Inuyasha said not being able to take her crying anymore or the way that she was talking.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome jumped up in surprised that he was there, and embarrassed for still crying. "How much did you hear?"

"Enough." Inuyasha said grabbing her face in both his hands and kissing her passionately on the lips.

Kagome's eyes automatically closed feeling Inuyasha's lips on hers. At that moment she didn't care why he was kissing her, she was just happy he was.

After a few moments, Inuyasha broke the kiss. "Kagome, there's something that I need to tell you."

"Oh God." Kagome thought to herself feeling her heart sink. "This can't be good." "What is it Inuyasha?" Kagome said thinking the worst.

"I know that I've never been able to get Kikyou off my mind, and I'm sorry for that." Inuyasha began.

"I knew this wasn't going to be good."

"When you ran into me at the well I was going to go to your time."

"What?" Kagome asked surprised.

Inuyasha repeated himself. "I was about to go to your time. I wanted to surprise you in the morning with roses and a little speech."

"You were?" Kagome asked about to cry again.

"Yes I was, and please don't cry. I can't stand it when you do."

Kagome swallowed hard and told him that she was sorry. That she never wanted to cause him any pain and was sorry that her crying did so.

"It's okay Kagome." Inuyasha said about to go on with his speech. "But I was going to tell you that I'm going to try my hardest to keep Kikyou off my mind so you can have all of my heart. For I love you and never want you to leave. Please don't leave. If not for me than at least for all your friends here."

Kagome just stood there for a moment, surprised of what she had just heard. She couldn't believe that Inuyasha loved her too. She wanted to speak, she wanted to kiss and hug him too, but for some reason she was just unable to.

"Kagome, please say something. I would really like it if you said something." Inuyasha pleaded with her.

"Oh, I'm sorry Inuyasha. It's just that I wasn't expecting this. I thought you were going to tell me that I have no chance with you because your heart belongs to Kikyou. I love you too, and I'm not going to leave, and yes it's because of you. This just surprises me, I mean for someone who never looked my way and for you tell me you love me, it's just, it's just very surprising."

"What do you mean that I never look your way?" Inuyasha asked a little hurt. "You mean you never noticed? Sango noticed. Every time you would leave she would talk to me about you, tell me how I should come out and just tell you how I feel. I never took her advice until tonight. She told me if I didn't act tonight that I might not get another chance."

"She was right." Kagome said after Inuyasha was done talking. "Tonight was going to be the last night that I was going to try and have you look my way."

"But I was looking your way the whole entire time." Inuyasha said trying to defend himself.

"I know that now, but I didn't when I made my decision. I'm actually tired now, so can we sleep?"

"Sure," Inuyasha said sitting down, "sleep on me."

"Okay." Kagome said sitting next to him. "Wake me up when morning breaks." Kagome then rested her head on Inuyasha's shoulder and began to sleep. Once she was, Inuyasha kissed Kagome on her forehead then rested his head up against the tree they were sitting in front of. He was just thinking of all the good times that he hoped would come.
