Stolen

Chapter 4

Three Years back. Summer Season.

Kagome opened her eyes and sunlight met her face, warming it. It reminded her of Inuyasha; she smiled to herself at the thought. Slowly, she sat up straight and shielded her eyes.

Friday morning. That's alright.

Putting her usual cheerful mood into action, she swung her legs over the side of the bed, throwing the cover of her bed aside and turning on her radio as she did so. Unexpectedly, something caught her eye. Turning to the source of silver, she noticed the photo of her and Inuyasha together on her bedside table. Laughing to herself she cast her gaze to the nearby window, where Inuyasha's own bedroom window could be seen; smiling she saw Inuyasha walking around his room picking up his schoolbooks. He looked sluggish and very funny; as usual he too had just woken up.

Possibly sensing someone was watching him, Inuyasha turned to find Kagome still looking, stuck in a daydream. Shyly he waved and mouthed the words "Good Morning!" to her. Snapping into the reality, she responded with a bright smile and a wave back.

They had been a couple for some time now, both convinced that it would last, that the other was perfect. They were young and in love, since the time when they first met. It took time for feelings to be said, but at least it was done eventually.

Kagome stood up from her bed and headed for her bathroom, scratching her head as she tried to decide what to wear.

Summer was blooming, well on its way to arriving, the time when she and Inuyasha would be together every minute. No complaints. No problems. It would be just the two of them.

Stepping out of her house, Kagome started her walk to school. She was early, so she started slow, in a good mood so she closed her eyes and breathed in the fresh air. She clasped her schoolbag, bringing it closer to her like she needed something to be near her or someone.

As if on cue, Inuyasha called out her name and ran after her, shutting his front door quickly, slipping his arm around her waist and kissing her softly when he caught up with her. Kagome stopped walking as she placed a hand on his chest and returned the kiss.

"Hello you." Inuyasha said in between short kisses.

Kagome laughed, she had always loved his mischievous side. He smirked and she continued walking, close to him, hands entwined frightened to let go of one another.

Every time she was with him, she felt a rush, love made her heart beat faster every single time and she never got tired of it. She promised herself that he was the one, he had stolen her heart a long time ago and he would never ever hurt her. He really was the one…

She thought back to that night when he promised to never leave her, and she believed him, convinced just by the sound of his voice. Kagome smiled as she escaped out of her memories.

"Well isn't that a sight for sore eyes." Inuyasha said playfully noticing her sweet smile, placing a chaste kiss on her forehead.

Kagome giggled, giving Inuyasha a teasing push.

Instinctively he held onto her tighter, whispering in her ear the three words which she always longed to hear, even if he had just uttered them a few minutes before.

"I love you, Kagome." Inuyasha said.

"I know." Kagome replied, a smile playing on her lips.

"Just thought maybe you forgot." He whispered back, he often put on the tough act but inside he actually meant every word that he said.

He tried to keep all his promises, scared of loosing Kagome. He had fallen to deep to be without her. So at every opportunity he reminded her just how much he loved her, to make sure that she knew, afraid that she might forget. He knew that if she did, things wouldn't go well for them.

She felt so warm, it was like she was already a part of him, and her skin was so soft. Kagome always looked beautiful, no matter what she wore; recently she had cut her hair slightly shorter. He almost laughed remembering how she had got angry when she couldn't get used to it being shorter even if it was only an inch or so, it was real cute he just had to kiss her, like he couldn't help it.

It was amazing, how in the space of a few months they could already have a history, and so many memories. He would never forgive himself if something went wrong, he couldn't even imagine waking up and she wasn't his anymore.

Ha! As if that could ever happen!

Kagome laughed hysterically suddenly, Inuyasha realized he had snorted aloud at that thought; as if it were contagious, he started to laugh with her. Sometimes they were so strange and stupid, but it was the times like these that they enjoyed the most. Just being together, with nothing in the way.

Inuyasha had already decided that he would marry her at the first opportunity, hopefully she would agree. Though it might seem sad and crazy, but both their hearts were more than into it. They were only 16 but it wasn't too early for anything.

Kagome moved into a more comfortable position in his arms, Inuyasha smiled and wrapped his arms tighter around her.

Right now everything was alright; perfect and no one could change it. Summer was on the way, he would do it then, it was reckless but if it was crazy to take a risk, then he didn't care.

They loved each other and that was all that mattered. For now.
