when you love it stings


It hurt like a bitch. To him, she was beyond invisible.


Sometimes she loved her sister to bits, but sometimes she loathed the fact that they were twins. Hisao loved Megumi, not her, Kikyou. He was just using her. Every time she answered to his call and went to his home to provide warmth when Megumi wouldn't, Kikyou was left with the heartbreak. Heartbreak and a bitter taste.

This time was no different. They'd had another fight, the perfect couple. If they were so in love like everyone thought, then how come Hisao was able to do such a thing, to betray Megumi in such a way? Whenever she allowed herself to delve into the depth of things, Kikyou discovered countless reasons to condemn this man and to hate herself, as well. She was doing it to Megumi, too. As much as she loved her sister, the love she held for this man was greater, inherent. As if an impenetrable link between her and him had been born along with them, as if she couldn't separate her soul from his. That she liked to believe, and whenever she lost herself in the essence of her troubles and heartache, she would think back to rosy times, times when he'd smile and her heart would flutter at such a mighty sight.

Now he was drenched in sweat and incredibly angry. He'd use her for sex again, though Kikyou didn't care. He could do what he wanted, as long as he took his energy, his pleasure from her. As long as she was the only one he used to take relief from. She welcomed him with open arms every time, now was no exception.

He didn't kiss her, he never did. He never said her name, either; it was an unspoken rule. Whereas Hisao was silent, she was not.

She'd honestly thought this unrequited love story would conclude with the end of their trysts caused by his marrying her sister, not because of an unexpected accident. He was supposed to be there at all times, even if out of her reach; Kikyou had never anticipated such an early death. She'd wanted him always there.


On March 18, 2012, Kikyou's heart was buried along with Hisao's.


einehexe wants to add: so, if you haven't understood yet... Kikyou in this story is holder of Kagome and Kikyou's soul, Hisao is Inuyasha's :)
