Kagome was sitting with Diamond on the porch. Seems things between her and Kyo had calmed down, but not by much. Kagura was coming over today, it was planned and it slightly irritated Kagome.
She wasn't dating Kyo, but the fact that his life was threatened if he didn't propose to her boiled her blood. Not just that but she did really want to protect Kagura from future hurt.
And speak of the devil, Kagura came into the house and latched onto Kyo.
"So Kagura. I think you might have some legitimate competition for Kyo's love." Kagura looked at Shigure and then turned to Tohru.
"No no. Not me." Tohru waved her hand in front of her face while shaking her head back and forth quickly. Then Kagura glared at Kagome. She felt the glare and was so happy that looks couldn't kill at the moment. Kagome turned around to face everyone in the living room.
"What?" Kagura seemed to release steam from her nose.
"Kyo's mine! Right Kyo?" Kagura latched onto Kyo. "Besides, you can't hug him without making him transform." Kagura stuck her tongue out at Kagome. Kagome looked away.
"Please Kagura. Don't stoop that low." However Kagura continued. She would list off things she could do and Kagome couldn't, how long she's known Kyo, and other things that just reminded Kagome how she was always compared to Kikyo when she still had feelings for Inuyasha. Finally Kagome snapped.
"Kagura shut the hell up! So what? I'm not part of the Sohma family! I don't care! I love Miroku and Sango dearly, but I don't know where they messed up to have descendants like you and Akito!" Kagura teared quickly then punched Kagome in the face, causing Kagome to flip out more. She put some miko energy into her hand and slapped Kagura across the face. Kagura acted like she had been burned, and she had, though it wouldn't leave a scar.
"Why do you want my Kyo! Is it because of those dumb dogs you liked?" Kagome glared at Kagura. She really was beginning to cross a line she didn't want to cross. Kagome sort of understood Kagura's actions. She was in love with Kyo and someone was as well and she viewed it as a threat. And as a teenage girl, what better way to get rid of said threat then to bring the other down. Kagura was about to say something when Kyo covered her mouth.
"Kagura. Shut the hell up. Leave Kagome alone okay." Kagura looked at Kyo.
"You're choosing her over me?" Kyo was about to respond when Kagura got him in a hold and looked like she was going to break Kyo's back. When she stopped Kyo glared at her.
"I never said that Kagura. I'm just telling you to stop because you're going too far." He then turned and left, leaving Kagura on the floor staring after him with tears in her eyes. Kagome took Diamond and headed for her room. She was sick of Kagura and knew that emotionally she wouldn't be able to handle it.
Kagome threw herself onto her bed. What was she going to do? Getting over Inuyasha was easy since she didn't completely love him, she still technically wasn't over Sesshomaru, but he's dead so she has no choice. And now it's Kyo. She was in more love with Kyo than she was with Sesshomaru, and she didn't think that was possible.
But she couldn't force him to love her. She wouldn't stoop to that level. And if he really did have feelings for Kagura, then she wouldn't feel right getting between them. Kagome couldn't stop thinking about everything. She felt tears begin down her face. Finally she sat up.
"Why can't I ever be happy!?" Kagome took her pillow and chucked it at her door just because. However the door opened and there stood Kyo, and the pillow hit him in the face. It fell and he blinked a few times.
"Ka... Kagome?" She ignored him and was about to reach for her bow and arrows when he came over and grabbed her hand. "What's wrong?" She turned to him with tear filled eyes.
"What do you think is wrong? Everyone I've fallen in love with I can't have! Inuyasha loved Kikyo, Sesshomaru's dead, and I don't even know if we can even be a possibility!" Kagome continued to cry and Kyo had to restrain himself so hard from hugging her to try and calm her down.
Her deep sapphire eyes had turned into a different shade. Not the ice blue when she was mad, but a pale blue that just seemed to rip out your soul and make you want to give up all the hope you ever had.
It broke Kyo's heart.
"Kagome. Listen to me." Kyo stopped. He wasn't sure if now was the moment to admit it or not. He did love Kagome. She fully accepted him. And he accepted her.
"What? Are you going to tell me that it's a stupid reason to be upset?"
"Hey that's not what I was going to say."
"Then what is it?" Kyo glared. She was beginning to bug him with this.
"I was going to that I-" The door opened to a timid boy with short brown hair.
"Souta?" The boy looked at Kagome and smiled.
"We've come to visit you! Are you alright?" He glared at Kyo. "What did you do to her?" Kyo pretty much snapped.
"I didn't do a damn thing." And he left. Kagome curled up in a ball as Souta came in and sat on her bed, trying to get her to go downstairs with the rest of the family.
