Chapter 7

Going Back

"Kagome just stay here. I'm going back to the feudal era. I know you don't love me." Inuyasha turned and started to leave. He didn't bother to look at Kagome or else he would have noticed the tears in her eyes.

"Inuyasha," she sobbed, "don't go. Please? I need you!" She had begun to cry hard and could not control herself. She was so upset that she was shaking.

Inuyasha couldn't take it. He didn't know what to do so he yelled at her. " What are you crying for!? You didn't need me when you were in that other guys arms so you don't need me now!" He couldn't stop. He turned to her enraged and looked at her with such disgust and said, "You're nothing but a lying, cheating, bitch! You got all mad when I called you Kikyo, but...but at least she never cheated on me!"

Kagome had had all she was going to take. That was the last straw. How dare he compare to the who nailed him to a tree fifty years ago, she thought. Well I've got something for him. " Sit! Sit, sit, sit!" Inuyasha was down for the count, but Kagome was just getting started. "How dare you talk to me like that! After all the stuff that I have done for you. Year after year I put up with you running after Kikyo. I put up with you ignoring me for her. I put my life on hold for you!" she stopped-briefly- to catch her breath, then she said, "If anyone should be mad it's me!" Then, lowering her voice, "I love you Inuyasha, you. Why can't you see that. Why can't you love me back?" She began to cry.

"You don't get it," he said, " I do love you, but I love Ki..."

"SIT!" before the final words were even out of his mouth. " Don't you ever say those words to me, ever in your life! I am your wife and you love ME! End of story!" Inuyasha had never seen Kagome exploded like that, but he expected it. He was an idiot. He married Kagome without getting over his love for Kikyo.

"Dammit Kagome," he yelled, " do you think you could yell it a little louder next time. It just might kill me." What am I doing? I am an idiot if I think she'll stay with me after that comment.

"Keep pushing me and I just might, you dirty half-wit, half- demon ." That cut him to the core. She had never called him a half-demon; never evan noticed, until now. He backed away from her, the hurt evident in his eyes. She had never seen Inuyasha this close to tears and it was all her fault. No, she thought, what have I done? I shouldn't have said that. "Inuyasha, I'm..."

"Don't say it you're sorry. You meant it. Kagome, Just stay here. We were a mistake and I wont put myself through this. I'm going back home where I belong. Goodbye Kagome." And he was gone; back to the feudal era; back to Kikyo.
