Name of Chapter: Kagome's Sorrow

I listen to Kagome's story with open ears and a closed mouth. I didn't interrupt her. I just kept an arm around her shoulders for warmth and comfort. I couldn't imagine what she must have been feeling at the time. Her father dying to protect her from a demon. A demon that wanted her powers.

"I held onto my father until the paramedics came." Kagome continues, her voice breaking. "They pronounced him dead at the scene. When my mother arrived at the morgue, she...she...she broke down. It was like her whole world disappeared from underneath her feet.

"She kept begging and begging for him to wake up. But he didn't. He never did." Kagome's voice got softer and softer. The more it got softer, the more her voice broke. The more my heart broke to hear her so sad.

After a few moments of silence, Kagome took a deep breath after gathering her thoughts. My attention was immediately on her again. My mind had wondered off into my thoughts again.

"After the funeral, things at my home we getting a little tense. That tension was mostly when I entered the room. I guess that was to be expected. I killed my father." Kagome sniffs, tears cascading down her cheeks. I wipe them away with my thumb, careful not to cut her with my claws. "A few weeks passed, I thought the tension would end but it didn't. It just got worse. Everyone blamed me for my father's murder. My mom and little brother excluded since they knew it was just a accident. That still didn't make anything easier around the house.

"Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. In the middle of the night, I packed two suitcases and took the next train to Tokyo." Kagome finishes, her eyes glazed with tears. "I feel so guilty. It's all my fault my father is dead. Because of my aura. Because I...I...couldn't conceal my powers."

I couldn't take it anymore. I fully wrapped my arms around her, hugging her while rubbing her back. Kagome's breath hitched in her throat at my gesture.

"What happened to your father was not your fault." I spoke soothingly to Kagome. "And neither is what happened to me. I chose to save you that day. I didn't want anything bad happen to you."

Kagome hiccupped, releasing more sobs. Kagome looks up at me, her chocolate eyes watery and puffy red. My heart sunk at the sight of her. She didn't deserve to be so sad. In my eyes, she looked like a Goddess. Last time I checked, Goddesses don't cry. When they do cry, chaos erupts around the world.

Thunder rumbled through the sky. I smelt the sharp scent of sulphur and on coming rain. I guess the rain was coming early.

"But why, Inuyasha," Kagome asks her voice uneven. "Why did you want to save me? You don't know me."

"How could I live with myself knowing a beautiful girl got hurt when I could have done something about it?" I ask her, rhetorically. I didn't notice I called her beautiful. "I couldn't live with myself I just walked away, knowing you had gotten hurt. Possibly killed."

"So, you're saying you only saved me because of your guilt?"

I though back to that night. Had I only saved her because of my guilt? It was on instinct, involuntary action.

No. There was more than that. I was sure of it.

"No," I say honestly. "It was involuntary, like I was supposed to save you. I guess Fate wanted me to save you. And I'm glad I did. Who knows if you would have survived or not-" I shuddered at the thought of her dying, "-after what I went through." I swallowed past the lump in my throat.

I heard Kagome release a silent "oh" before we sat in quiet, waiting for the rain to fall. By now Kagome's tears have subsided. All that remained was her red rimmed chocolate eyes.

Inside, I heard Shippo turn off my game console and turn on the television. I vaguely wondered how he knew how to do that. Then again, he is a fox demon. And they are perceptive.

"Superman, if you had to do that night over again," Kagome starts, her head leaning on my shoulder, looking at me with her beautiful chocolate eyes, "would you still choose to save me?"

"Keh," I scoffed at her idiotic question. I answered before I had time to think. "Of course I would still choose to save you."

"But, because of what happened, you can't live a normal life," Kagome protests. I rolled my eyes. "You can't go outside anymore or go to your fathers work. Or spend time with your family. Or have a family of your own!"

"Please, Kagome. I still have a normal life...sort of. I can do all of those things...when I work up the courage to do them and after I kill those creeps who made me like this."

"And who knows when that will be?"

I opened mouth, about to blurt my answer, when I realized she was right. When would I kill those creeps who made me like this? I haven't even started looking for them. I've been scared of going outside. Like a groundhog seeing his shadow when it emerges from his burrow after winter ends.

"My point exactly," Kagome says, seeing my blank come back. She smiled and rested her arm on my abdomen. My heart started racing at her intimate touch. It somehow felt...right. I smiled and relaxed, smelling her unforgettable scent. Cherry vanilla.

Our gazes met. Shocks went through my body. Thunder rolled across the sky. Rain began to fall.

Something soft landed on my lips, like another pair of lips. Somehow I knew they were Kagome's. Her lips were everything I imagined they were. Soft and moist.

"Inuyasha! There's a half demon girl on the news!"
