Chapter 3: The Dream
-Inuyasha's POV-
I had a dream about you last night. We were together in our own house away from all the demons and heartache. It was perfect. I got to see you everyday and we were so happy. We had two kids together too. A son and daughter. They were there and full of life, I could have sworn they were real. They had your black hair and my dog ears. They were something, I just wish you could have seen them Kagome, I wish they could be real, well all of it.
Then in my dream when we were alone in the house; just the two of us, it was so great. We were cuddled together and I had my arms around you and you had your head on my chest. Who knew we could be so happy, so in love? We sat like that forever and we held our hands together, we were part of each other. You're always a part of me Kagome. I want to have a future with you, if only I could. I would stay with you forever and I would never be lonely. Now I'm afraid I will be lonely forever.
-End of POV-
Inuyasha watched Kagome as she talked with Miroku, Sango and Shippo in the inn they had rented. They wanted the best for Kagome while she was there, she deserved it. Tears began to shed themselves from Inuyasha's eyes. He wasn't one to usually cry, in fact he had only cried in front of the others once since knowing them, when he thought he would lose them.
He loved Kagome so much that knowing her fate; it was hard for him not to cry, no matter if he was a man who didn't like showing his true feelings. Making himself vulnerable to pain, masking it was what he felt was for the best. No matter if he was half a demon, he was also half human and his feelings sometimes had to come out. The human side of his heart was the part breaking and yet he felt somehow that even his demon self was torn.
-Back to Inuyasha's POV-
I want you to be my mate and just live. If I had known this was your fate I wouldn't have spent so much time insisting that we go after Naraku and not spend more time together. If I could only get more time with you. To have that dream of our future. A future with you is all I need.
-End of POV-
Inuyasha's wiped his tears away and frowned, stupid tears. Kagome looked over at him and Inuyasha caught her eyes. Inuyasha held her face in his mind like he had since knowing the news, 'After everything that has happened, she is smiling at me with that smile I love so much, how could I say goodbye to that smile?'
