Disclaimer: I still don't own him. I think you know who I'm talking about.
Recap from last time:
"If she's Sango and you're Kagome? Then the old hag is Kikyo right?"
Kagome and Sango gasped as they heard Inuyasha innocent question. How where they going to tell him about Kikyo? When there was so much more that he needed to remember first.
Chapter 4: Getting Answers
By InuShemeeko
Kagome bit her lip as she tried to figure out what to tell him. Inuyasha wasn't helping her out any, his now soft golden orbs looked at her with questioning eyes.
'Aw man. I'm so screwed how am I going to explain to him who Kikyo is.'
'Kikyo was the girl you were in love with 50 years ago. Yeah like that'll help him. It'll just confuse him even more.'
Kagome pulled in a breath as she watched Inuyasha staring at her. She then slowly let it out.
"Well Kikyo was someone from your past."
Inuyasha's continued to look at her with innocent and confused eyes.
"Ok, so was she like family or something to me?"
Kagome was stumped she wasn't sure what to say.
"Um...well...you see. Kikyo is the woman that you were in love with fifty years ago. She died after you were pinned to the tree."
Inuyasha's golden orbs widened as he stared at Kagome and Sango.
"So she was the one who sealed me to the tree? So she's dead, I was hoping if I could have seen her, maybe it would help me remember things."
"Well she not really dead Inuyasha, she not really alive either."
Inuyasha's golden orbs widened in confusion, nothing that Kagome was saying was making sense to him.
"That doesn't make sense how can she be here now if she died after she sealed me to the tree?"
Both Kagome and Sango looked at one another. Sango then placed a gentle hand on Kagome's shoulder.
"Perhaps it would be best if you explained it all to him."
Kagome nodded in agreement.
"Well I guess I should start with how Kikyo came to be again. You see it all started with this demon name Urasue."
Kagome then went into explaining what had happened with the demon Urasue and how she had made Kikyo a new body in order to have the dead priestess find the shards of the Shikon no Tama. She then explained how Urasue had removed her soul from her body and put it into the clay body of Kikyo's.
Once Kagome had finished Inuyasha stood up and turned away from her. Kagome had become worried over his silence that's when the hanyou spoke.
"I see."
"Inuyasha."
His soft golden orbs burned into her chocolate ones as he turned at the sound of his name. He then asked the question that was now burning within him.
"Kagome did something happen between you and Kikyo, for you to hate or pity her as much as you do? It's in your eyes when you talk about her."
It was simple to answer his question so she did.
"Well when the girl is always trying to kill you. You kind of get a different opinion of them."
Kagome gasped as she realized what she had just said to Inuyasha. Inuyasha then raised an eyebrow in confusion what did she mean that Kikyo had tried to kill her. The memories of Kikyo that Inuyasha could remember was, of a kind and caring women not one that would try to kill someone.
Inuyasha shook his head. No it had to be a lie it couldn't be true, but Kagome didn't seem to be the type of person who would lie about something like that would she?
'No she wouldn't, she's not that kind of person.'
Inuyasha then slowly walked back toward Kagome.
"Kagome? I'm sorry if this hurts you, but from what I can remember about Kikyo, there's no way she would do something like that."
Kagome could help the hurt that jumped into her eyes.
"So you think I'm lying to you don't you?"
She looked down at the ground as she felt tears forming in her eyes. No she would not let him see her cry. Kagome then heard Inuyasha soft voice speak to her.
"No, I'm not Kagome. It's just so irritating I can't really remember any of this about myself. I feel so helpless, what if some demon comes and attacks. What if I can't get Tetsusaiga to transform, There is one thing I do remember and that's, that I promised to protect you."
Kagome slowly lifted her head to look at Inuyasha. Tears still ran down her face as their glazes held.
"Oh Inuyasha."
At first he was unsure of what to do as the girl placed her face against his shoulder. Pools of liquid sadness flowing from her eyes, Inuyasha then gently place a clawed hand on her back and rubbed it.
"Kagome, each day that you help me remember a piece of myself, I...Kagome please look at me."
The hanyou gently pushed Kagome away from him. Only to place a finger under her chin, forcing her to look up at him.
"I feel warm Kagome that's the one other thing I remember about you. You make me feel warm and at peace with myself. When I'm with you I don't feel so lost inside."
Before the one realized what the other was about to do, it was too late. Inuyasha's lips suddenly touched Kagome. Kagome was take by surprise as she felt the silky softness of his lips touching her's.
The startled voice of a young man as heard from behind them. Fake shock could be heard in his voice.
"Oh Inuyasha, Kagome I see I have come at a bad time. I shall take my leave now."
The young man then thought to himself as he walked away.
'Perhaps, now that Inuyasha has loss his memory he will not hide his feelings for Kagome? Seeing how he can not remember much of anything else.'
*********************************************************************
Kagome couldn't stop the blush that had crept into her cheeks, as she turned away from Inuyasha. Inuyasha then became confused by her actions.
"Kagome, did I just do something wrong?"
Kagome turned quickly around and smiled at Inuyasha.
"Oh no, no you didn't do anything wrong. Miroku just surprised me that that's all."
"Oh," was he one and only response.
****************************************************************
'Inuyasha, just kissed me, and I kissed him back. What do I do? He doesn't remember that he promised himself to Kikyo. Will he regret kissing me when he gets his memory back?'
Kagome continued to ponder over what she should do. As Inuyasha continued to watch her as she thought.
'What is it about her? Why did I want to kiss her, and how come when the monk showed up she jumped away from me as if we did something wrong?'
Inuyasha's eyebrows bunched up in frustration as he continued to think about it. His eyes narrowed at Kagome as his last thought suddenly sprang from his mouth.
"What's with you Kagome? When the monk...I mean Miroku showed up. You acted like he's never seen us kiss before. So what gives Kagome?"
Inuyasha watched Kagome's face as she looked over at him sheepishly.
"Inuyasha, you've...we've never kissed before."
Inuyasha was astonished at this new information.
"We've never not even once?"
Kagome shook her head no. As Inuyasha looked at her shockingly, he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Why? Why haven't we?"
She felt her eyes filling with tears once again, as she looked at him. He had remembered Kikyo's name but not what she had meant to him not even after she was brought back. It was kind of ironic really, and the pure confusion and innocence gleaming in his eyes wasn't helping either.
Kagome sighed as she prepared herself to give Inuyasha his answer. No matter how much it hurt her.
"Inuyasha, we've never kissed, because you're still in love with Kikyo."
Inuyasha shook his head as he spoke.
"What no that's impossible. I understand that she was brought back, but her body's not real. There no way for it to be warm like yours is. Me loving something that isn't really alive doesn't make sense. Especially if she's tried to killed you."
Inuyasha moved forward to embrace Kagome, when she spoke to him.
"Inuyasha sit."
The hanyou suddenly found himself crashing suddenly into the ground. That's when another memory surfaced. One with Miroku and the little fox were talking to him, right before Kagome had given him a big sit.
~Memory~
"What will you do Inuyasha?" Miroku asked
"Which girl will you chose?" Shippo questioned.
"Answer!" Miroku yelled at him followed by Shippo.
"Which one?"
*****************************************************
He then remembered what his reply had been.
~Memory~
"Hummm, I don't suppose I could have both of them?"
The little fox named Shippou had been very angry at him.
"You two timing...!"
The monk had simply replied.
"Well, it's a common problem with men such as ourselves. It's one to have both and another to keep it a secret. For if either girl were to find out."
"SIT!"
"That's right big sit."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The memory faded as quickly as it had come. Inuyasha then pulled himself out of the ground. What kind of guy was he? Inuyasha then started to walk the other way; he needed time to think. Wait if it had been his decision then, couldn't he change it now?
