The Heartbreak
(Chapter 9)
Koga and Kagome woke up to the sweet aroma of food. Kagome was lying on her side and Koga was holding her from behind. "Good morning beautiful." Koga whispered into her ear, Kagome turned over onto her back to look at Koga "It's already morning?" Koga smiled and planted a sweet kiss against her lips "Everything wore us out we needed the sleep. But that food downstairs does smell good." Koga's smiled brightly Kagome giggled and stood up Koga winced a little but was able to stand on his own now, which was a good sign.
They walked downstairs hand-in-hand smiling and looking at each other. "Oh Koga. How nice it is to see you again." Kagome's mom said when they walked into the kitchen "It's nice to see you too." Koga slumped in one of the kitchen chairs and tried not sighing in pain "I saw your clothes and armor Koga. I washed them all for you and they should be dry by now. But let's redress your wounds now so they heal faster." Kagome smiled at her mom knowing she could always count on her.
Koga, Kagome, and her family ate breakfast and laughed the whole time, when breakfast was finished Kagome's mom dressed Koga's wounds as Kagome took a bath. Kagome laid in the relaxing tub and let the hot water wash away all her misery and pain. "Koga's back." She whispered to herself, that night when Kagome crawled into bed next to Koga. Everything felt so right she felt like she was where she needed to be right next to Koga and in his arms. Inuyasha felt like a far off dream and a fairytale character she was in love with Koga and this was the way things had to be from now on.
Kagome was woken up the next morning with Koga kissing her and stroking her side. "You can never let a girl sleep in, can you?" Kagome giggled "Well when I love you and watching you sleep and your lips I couldn't take it anymore." He smirked "How do you feel?" Kagome ran her hand down his muscle covered chest "A lot better. I might even be healed enough to go back to the feudal era." His smirk sort of faded "What is it?" Kagome questioned grabbing his face so he was looking at her "What if you want Inuyasha back…When we get there." Koga tried turning his face but Kagome wouldn't let him
"Koga I don't have just a random bite mark on my neck. I mated with you for a reason and that reason was because I'm in love with you and nothing can change that. Last night falling asleep in your arms I realized how right it felt. And how stupid I was for not trying to save you." Kagome's hung her head "Kagome look at me." Koga grabbed her chin and forced her to look into his eyes "You did save me Kagome." He placed her hand over his heart and she felt the beating of his racing heart, "My heart is beating again because of you."
"It stopped because of me." Kagome's eyes once again flashed with the self-hatred that lay beneath the surfaced "Hey don't do that. Naraku put you in a hard spot and you were just doing things without thinking because he gave you no time to think. And it's not your fault that I died it was Naraku's but you are the one who saved me Kagome. You are the one and only purpose I have left to stay in this world." Kagome buried her head deep into Koga's chest and he felt the tears hit his chest, "shhh." He soothed
"Why can't I get through the well?!" Inuyasha was pacing back and forth as his friends watched him "What if Kagome is in danger?" Inuyasha just kept pacing and pacing, Ginta and Hakkaku were watching from the tree line and eventually Inuyasha stopped his pacing and his body stiffened, a brown and green blur shot out of the well and landed a few feet away from Inuyasha. Koga and Kagome stood there facing their friends and Koga's arm was lightly around Kagome's waist.
"Koga!" Ginta and Hakkaku came running and threw their arms around Kagome and Koga, they kissed Kagome's cheek and thanked her for saving their brothers life. "Koga? How can you be alive?" Shippo said from his spot on Inuyasha tensed shoulder, Koga slid his arm tighter around Kagome. "She saved me the same way she saved Kohaku." Inuyasha took a step toward Kagome. "Get your hands off of her." He growled Shippo hopped down and ran to Kohaku
"Back off mutt." Koga growled back and pushed Kagome behind him, his mating instincts boiling his blood, Inuyasha looked and saw that the marks had reappeared on Koga and Kagome's neck and it made him even more furious. Inuyasha hand went to his sword and his glare never left Koga. "Did you mate with him again?" Inuyasha's bit out "No I didn't when I saved him they reappeared." Kagome told the truth, "Mates for life." Koga said with a smirk and Inuyasha lept at him
