Chapter Five Field Trip For Sengoku Jidai Heroes

Part Three

After they registered, Mrs. Higurashi took her leave.

"Kagome, mama has to go back to take care of dinner and ji – chan, ok. " Mrs. Higurashi said, proceeding to leave. "Be sake ok."

"Hai mama" said Kagome waving.

"Nee – san, why don't we bring them to the amusement park… There's a new roller coaster ride I wanna go on!" asked Souta, who stood towering over Kagome. So did Shippo in his humanoid form.

Kagome looked at her friends; Sango and Miroku nodded eagerly though they din know what a ro-le-cos-te was. Inuyasha knew what a roller coaster was; he went there once with Kagome, a long time ago. He wasn't particularly looking forward to reminiscing the fun times he had with Kagome, before she told him that she didn't love him anymore and that she wouldn't stop him if he wanted to be with Kikyo. Which were just a few days ago and their relationship had changed…

Kagome hung out more often with Miroku, Sango and Shippo. She did not deliberately ignore him, nor did she spend any extra time with him. He noticed that her time spent on each of them had become equal. He no longer held the special reason for her to just sit beside him and daydream.

Only Inuyasha noticed the change, he guessed that Miroku also noticed but decided not to remark.

He sighed. Kagome had given up on him when he thought she wouldn't. She was the one who made him believed in himself. The one who did not care whether he was a hanyou or not.

Inuyasha felt that his home was in Kagome, she made him feel… Loved. But now, he lost that. Because of his idiocy. Because of his promise to Kikyo.

"Inuyasha."

Inuyasha whipped around. Kagome had called him. She looked at him worriedly.

"Inuyasha, lets go," she said, as he continued to stare blankly.

Her raven hair was flowing around courtesy of the wind. Her blue grey orbs seemed to penetrate his soul.

Her scent. Roses, pure and innocent, a beautiful sight to behold, yet adorned with thorns, a reminder that she could be tough when the situation demanded it. Spices, a fiery temper.

"Inuyasha?" said Kagome worriedly. That brought him out of his musings.

"Sango – chan, Shippo and Miroku have followed my brother to the amusement park. You looked sickly so I thought we'll go to the clinic for an examination, Kagome said, placing her hand on his forehead.

Smooth features, unmarred by imperfections. Her eyes, held a glimmer as they reflected the light of the sun. She cocked her head to one side, her long silky locks falling over her eyes. Kami – sama, she looked absolutely desirable.

"Inuyasha," Kagome murmured as Inuyasha's amber eyes glazed over. He was definitely sick. Either that or he's gone bonkers.

She grabbed his hand and his eyes went wide.

"Wench!" Inuyasha yanked his hand back. "What are you doing!" he yelled causing others to turn and look at them.

Kagome's heart lurched to a stop. Wench. That is all I am to him. A burden. His Shikon detector. A clumsy, idiotic person he doesn't need to bother himself with.

Kikyo is everything I'm not. Calm. Graceful. An expert on medicine. She could control her powers easily. She always had manageable hair. Kagome snorted mentally in her head at that. A beautiful woman. And… She was his first love. The one Inuyasha had lost his heart too. Not to me. To her. An undead.

Inuyasha felt guilty for snapping at her like that but he didn't mean too. Then he saw the look in her eyes. He blinked slowly and refocused. There. There was a change in her eyes – a hint of something lonely and stricken – that spoke more of Kikyo. Something sad in her eyes, an echo of something lost that was always more characteristic of Kikyo than herself.

Inuyasha took a step back.

Kikyo.

Not Kikyo.

Kagome.

Then, as he looked at her again, that look was gone. Kikyo was gone.

Inuyasha let out a sigh of relief. Kagome was the happy one. The one with warmth. The one without prejudice. The one with jovial smiles. Twinkles in her eyes. The happy one.

"Come. Do you want to see the doctor," asked Kagome smiling a little. She had to be happy for him. He had lost Kikyo once because of Naraku, now he could see her again. She should be happy for him.

She had too.

"No. How many times must I tell you that I'm not sick wen… Kagome?" Inuyasha said hastily as he was afraid Kagome would change again. To Kikyo.

Kagome smiled. He cared for her, even if it was only for a little bit. It was enough.

He smiled and took her hand this time.

Even if they weren't together, Inuyasha would always have a place in his heart for Kagome. Kikyo would have to wait. But for now, Kagome was all that mattered to him.

Kagome blinked. Inuyasha… was holding her hand willingly.

She blinked again. Tears coming forth. They would enjoy this moment in time now. In the future, if they are separated. If… She would deal with that later.

The sun shone brightly above them, the wind tugging at his silver locks and her dark raven hair. The fallen leaves spun around them.

In this moment in them, they were together. They would do well to enjoy it.
