She could not breathe. As if the air around her rebelled, and had decided to drown her instead.
She could not move. And all she felt was the indescribable pain seeping into her, replacing her sense of purpose with hundred reasons of death.
Is she not enough? Will she ever be enough? The last she thought before streams of tears broke free from her eyes.
"Inuyasha.." she managed to let out before falling on her knees, sobbing.
One last night, he thought to himself. Just this last time before he could tell Kagome the truth.
He was looking forward to coming home to her and tell her what had been bothering him the past few days.
He was excited.
That is, until he heard her voice.
His mate.
"Inuyashaa… "
And the sight of her, crying on her knees, broke him.
"Kagome! Koi, please.. hear me out. It's not what it's look like" he reached to hold her body but was stopped by a barrier.
"Kagome. Let me in. Please." He tried again, only to have his hands burned significantly.
"FUCK! KAGOME! Let me in. Koi, I could explain. Please!"
She could not hear. She chose not to hear. Because all she could see was betrayal. What else should be there? Kikyo laying on the ground, naked if not for the white robe covering her modesty. Inuyasha, sitting beside her.
"I regret being with you. I wished I hadn't met you." - the last she said before she called for Kirara and left the scene.
Kagome decided to stay with Sango and Miroku. She didn't bother to tell them the story, but the two had guessed it was serious enough that Kagome would put a barrier around their entire home only to keep the hanyou away from them.
They knew not to ask further.
"Kagome! Let me in! You're my mate dammit. Kagome!!"
The door finally opened but it was Sango who was out by the door to speak to him.
"Inuyasha, give her space."
"No! Let her out! Dont keep her from me!"
"We are not keeping her away from you. You know that. Kagome put the barrier herself. She's crying Inuyasha. She's upset. Even if she wants to, she can't possibly be able to think clearly. Give her space. Please."
"Tell her. Please tell her. Nothing happened between me and Kikyo. Nothing. I would never!"
"I didn't even know this is about Kikyo… I don't know Inuyasha. Let her be please"
