when Nightmares reveal one's feelings
InuxKag
Inuyasha and the others rest in a nearby town but the thing is...they can only stay if they pair off into couples... as in boyfriend girlfriend couples, except for Kirara and Shippo. they stay with Sango and Miroku in their hut, and since they have to stay in "couples" for their entire stay Kagome and Inuyasha get quite closer, maybe even want to actually BE a couple.
"look, there's a town and it's just over that river!" Shippo pointed out as the group paused their traveling
"yes!" "FINALLY I can a REAL bath! I haven't had one of those in FOREVER!" Kagome said excitedly, "come on Inuyasha!"
"I'm comin' I'm comin'!" 'why am I so obsessed with protecting her? why do I always feel bad when she cries?' 'what is it about her that makes me so...I don't know...happy I guess, when I'm by her side I feel...happy, like...like I-'
"hello...? Inuyasha? what's wrong?" 'and why is he staring at me so much? do I have something in my hair?'
"what? can't you see I'm thinkin'?! I'd like to be able to have a private thought once in a while ya know!" Inuyasha barked trying to hide his blushing
"*begins to cry*"
'crap it. why am I such a jerk?!'
"I didn't know you wanted to be left alone, usually you go off by yourself if you want solitude! but you were staring at me, so I didn't know what you were doing! and that why I had asked!" Kagome yelled then ran off into the woods leaving Inuyasha with a trail of salty tears
"way to go Inuyasha, you REALLY did it this time."
"SHUDDUP!" 'but shippo IS right though, I hurt her again, why is it that every time I talk to Kagome I end up hurting her.' 'and all because I like her.. gyahh! why do emotions have make me be so mean to her!' Inuyasha thought as he ran into the woods following the trail of salty tears Kagome left behind her.
with Kagome
"stupid Inuyasha, why does he have to snap at me whenever I ask him anything?" Kagome asked rhetorically
"cause-...*sigh* cause I care about ya, ok?!"
"wha-what really is it?" 'he doesn't mean that, he's just saying that so I'll stop crying or whatever.'
"what do ya mean what really is it?"
"I mean why are you here? why did you follow me into the woods? why won't you just take a hint?!" {A/N maybe he should listen to the song, Take a Hint. *giggles*}
"I-..."
"see! that's my point! you probably don't even hear half the things I say to you! I could probably tell you I loved you and you wouldn't notice."
'I would, cause I...love her too.'
"so now you won't even say anything to me?!" "I hate your guts Inuyasha!"
"no-wait! just-stop...please."
"why should I?!"
"cause-" Inuyasha tried to say but couldn't he just sat there staring at his claws with a look of uncertainty, confusion, and almost of like he wants to tell her what she wants to hear more than anything, but can't. "*growling sigh*"
"cause why?"
"cause...*looks up at Kagome* Kagome, why do you continue to stay by me when I keep hurting you?"
"I-I..."
"see, that's why I can't tell you that-I uh..."
"you really want to know why?"
"yeah, I do! it just doesn't make any sense, why stick around when all I do is make you cry?"
"cause...I-...I.."
"what?" 'could she like me? no...I mean how could she? I've only made her want to hate me. heck even I hate me. I just-'
"Inuyasha?"
"what?!" he again snapped, but instantly felt terrible, "no. wait, KAGOME! STOP!"
"YOU'RE RIGHT! I DON'T KNOW WHY I HANG AROUND YOU! BUT YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ME ANYMORE, I'M LEAVING!" Kagome said stopping, then she grabbed something that she had in her shirt pocket and threw it at Inuyasha
"your jewel shards, what-why are you giving me these?"
"like I said, I'm LEAVING!"
"but you won't be able to come back without these."
"that's the idea!"
'no...she-no. I finally did it, I pushed her over the edge, she was always patient with me, and I pushed her away.' then he saw her approaching the well, "NO! KAGOME! STOP! PLEASE!"
"why? like you said all you've ever done is hurt me, well now you won't have to." she replied seeing him running after her.
"I already told you, I do it cause I care about ya," Inuyasha said tackling her to the ground so she couldn't leave him forever.
"you don't mean that!" "now get off of me!"
"I do!" "come on! would I have chased you to the well if I didn't?!" "and no, I ain't gonna get off o' ya, not till you take back your shards."
"why do you care if I have them?"
"cause I..." "cause I like ya ok?" "I really really like ya. happy now?!" he growled out angry at himself
"Inuyasha...-I-" Kagome managed to say as she stared at him feeling utterly shocked
"so...will you stay? here... with me?"
"ok, ok, just get off!"
"fine." so he did get off of her.
"but why did you always snap at me when I see you staring at me?"
"I wasn't sure if you like me back.."
"that was stupid."
"what?"
"of course I like you, why else would I stick around? you're stubborn, annoying...*mumbles*cute...thickheaded- "
"what a second there Kagome.. did-did you just call me... cute?"
"uh." she said blushing wildly
"you did! you so totally did!"
"fine! I did, I called you cute."
back with the others
"should we just go to the town or wait a bit longer for them?"
"I say go ahead."
"mrew!"
"what do you think Sango?"
"I don't really know..." "but we can't always be waiting for them. let's just go on ahead."
"yeah." Miroku agreed
