Chapter 14:

Together… Only to fall.

 

 

Kagome sighed and looked down at the table. The normal agitating stares from others around her bounced off gingerly as she closed her eyes. She didn't feel like there was a need to care anymore… she couldn't escape the feelings that incased her… the miserable feelings that locked her down to the floor. Its not that she didn't mind the newest version of Sesshomaru, nor the shopping for everything she needed, but it was more or less… what couldn't be bought, that she felt she needed the most. Sighing she pulled her kimono closer to her. It wasn't the same, being so close and yet so far…

 

“Kagome?”

 

Kagome lazily looked over her shoulder and her eyes met green. Those familiar green eyes that she faintly recognized in the golden dim light. She raised her head and gave a look up surprise. What she most needed… the thing she mostly missed… She stood up from her chair and straightened her clothes. The air in the room changed faintly. She looked at the voice's owner and stopped everything. Her eyes starred silently as they fell from the floor, slowly up to where the voice escaped. Her eyes wavered and she suddenly hugged the voice's owner.

 

Harry clasped his arms around her and held her to his chest. It was her. How dare he forget that face? He stroked her hair as she buried her face into his chest, letting out a sigh of what almost seemed like, relief.

 

“Harry… I… I'm so glad you're here….” She whispered softly.

 

Her heart began to beat slowly as she felt his hands move in small circles on her back. He held her tighter as she leaned on him. He missed her. He missed everything about her. He kissed her temple; the letter in his pocket seemed long forgotten by now. Running her hands from his waist up his chest to around his neck, she laced her fingers. Looking up at him, she watched as he leaned down to her ear. Closing her eyes, she listened to his soft breath.

 

“You have no idea how much… I missed you.” He whispered hotly on her ear.

 

His lips moved from her ear, kissing her cheek slowly, down to her lips. Kagome cupped his cheek gingerly. His arms pulled her closer as their lips did to one another's. The moment almost seemed, as if time would stand still. The moment that was only told as a fictional story, where no one seemed to breathe. As if even time it's self had to stop and stare, and wonder…

 

Slowly they pulled back, the soft feeling of their lips laying sweetly upon one another's, beckoning for another reunion. Eyes opened and groped at each other's face caringly, memorizing every detail. Kagome smiles and trailed her hand down his face. Harry couldn't help but smile back.

 

“Keep your own salvia children…”

Kagome looked behind her to see Sesshomaru, still disguised as Professor Lauren, leaning against the wall across the room, watching carefully. He rose from his position and Kagome let the embrace fall with rosy cheeks. Harry watched flustered as he strode over slowly, almost gracefully, as if he seemed to be floating on air.

 

“So he's the one?”

 

His voice appeared to have changed. Kagome quirked an eyebrow slightly. His voice laced heavily with and intriguing tone, the tone that made her wonder… if he ever really lost his other side. The side that held his elegance and sophistication. The side of the past, which forever enveloped his humor. How odd, she thought, that he only shows true emotion around her. The emotion that he feared to have.

 

Harry gave an almost confused look. A moment passed before Sesshomaru sharpened his eyes. Kagome nodded and grasped Harry's hand. He was the one. Sesshomaru growled slightly at her choice of companionship.

 

“Professor Lauren, is there a reason for your questions?”

 

Harry breathed in the nerves that splattered against his heart. Sesshomaru's eyes gained sparks of gold in his violet eyes.

 

“Indeed. That of which you'll never know. For now… keep your vile tongue in your own mouth, and out of my kin's.” His voice changed yet again. Kagome's face lit up at his last word. Kin. A home. A place she could belong too. Her heart fluttered even higher. A family… a family…. oh she had a family again…

 

“Kin?” Harry questioned, “You're related to Kagome, Professor?”

 

Sesshomaru closed his eyes and the parcels disappeared from the table. His eyes opened and he looked only at Kagome.

 

“You are to be here at 6. Do not fail, or training begins early. Is that clear?”

 

Kagome nodded and smiled. He was letting her have time… time to be a real teenager.

 

“Of course Sensei…” Kagome gave a small bow.

 

Sesshomaru bowed slightly and exited the pub. Rising, Kagome looked over at Harry. Tugging his hand she lead him out of the pub.

 

“Looks like we have all day together.”

 

“What more could I want right now, then to be with you?” Kagome smiled and gently kissed his cheek. Harry chuckled slightly.

 

“Maybe… to be with you forever…” Kagome flushed and darted down the street.

“Come on!”

 

Together, they darted down the street. Evading people left and right, hiding here and there, the two slowly began to discover their playful sides. Harry laughed and grabbed her around her waist, lifting her slightly he twirled her around.

 

“Got ya!”

 

Kagome laughed and tried to escape his arms. Harry leaned down to her ear, whispering, “ Now, look to your left…”

 

Those identical pairs of eyes and brightly colored grins splashed wildly out the corner of her eye. Her eyes lit up as she looked over. She watched as the memorable noises washed her ears and the admirable figures stood outside the pawnshop.

 

George and Fred appeared to be laughing at their newest diabolical plan. For the two had yet again, began to make more items, as to which they would torture, their ever-wonderful schoolmates with. Their latest idea had become more of to what they expected, an idea, that broadened into a smashing hit. A hit that so far seemed to be hell for all those whom had fallen prey to their wonderful items. In other words, chaos.

 

“Hey Fred! George! Anyone miss this lady here?” Harry suddenly called out.

 

Fred and George gazed over at Harry and dropped their candies.

 

“Harry, is that? Little Kagome?” George asked, stunned slightly.

 

“Maybe, but some how George I don't think I'm exactly little anymore, am I?”

 

Kagome smiled as they walked over, wrapping their arms around her in a hug of tight sincerity. Kagome hugged back. George hugged tighter as did Fred. Kagome shook her head and pulled away before one caused a bone crushing war.

 

“So you two… How has the chaos been?”

 

“Not so much anymore, really. Everyone's all hush-hush about the whole dinner episode and bloody Dumbledore has been a mess, but Lee, Fred, and I, haven't let you down Little Kagome.” George gave a small grin and winked.

 

“Well, I'd be horrified if you did.” Kagome smiled again as Harry wrapped his arms around her waist from behind.

 

“Aw how cute Freddy. Look at them!” George cooed.

 

Fred laughed and began making kissing noises.

 

“Oh come now George. He's only been miserable with out her!”

 

Kagome felt her cheeks rise, as Harry bashfully let her go. Fred and George Picked up the goods they dropped, and gathered them into their bags. Squeezing between the lovers, George wrapped am arm around Kagome, Fred on the other side of her.

“Now just cause she's back Harry, doesn't mean you can have her to yourself!”

Kagome laughed. Life seemed so much better with theses two. They seemed to care only about ambitions and things that made the world different. They were different. The were the ones she almost envied the most. The ones who didn't seem to care anymore about what others think.

 

“Shall we find little Ron and Hermione?” Harry whispered into her ear.

 

Kagome glanced back at him as the twins let her go. She nodded.

 

“Where are Ron and Hermione?” Kagome asked, looking at the twins reactions, she could only guess they'd rather be left alone.

 

“Are you kidding me? We can't even get away from them!”

 

“Aye! All they do is bicker `bout such silly things. Hermione's got him on a leash.”

Kagome raised an eyebrow. Apparently a few things have happened since I was gone, she thought.

 

“A leash?” She inquired.

 

“Aye! She's got him studying all sorts of rubbish! He keeps screaming `bout it and cant seem to hide from her… but in the end, he always goes and does it, isn't that right George?”

 

“Oh yes, she's just oodles of fun…”

 

Fred and George began their act. George, pretending to be Ron, fainted at the sight of Fred, the ever so evil Hermione. Now portrayed as lady death. Kagome couldn't help but rub the back of her head and just smile. Hermione wasn't that bad, she had her clingy, egotistical, irrational, vile moments that you might just consider turning her into a bullfrog… but she wasn't that bad, was she?

 

A loud scream that oddly sounded familiar was heard from the bookstore followed by a more feminine yell. George and Fred sighed.

 

“ `Ere we go…” They sighed.

 

Storming out of the bookstore came the two. A red faced Hermione and an ever so raging Ron. Her hand gripped his arm as her narrowed his eyes and yanked it off. Kagome watched the storm turn worse.

 

“All you do is scream at me! Can't you just take a break?” He lashed out.

 

“Oh Ron! I'm just trying to help! I want you to have a future you know! I don't just do this for no reason!” Hermione let go of his arm.

 

“Yeah, Yeah! Looking out for me eh? Well hate to break it to you Hermione, but you cant do everything for me!”

 

Ron moved out of the way of the girls who exited the store.

 

“Oh Ron, give it a rest!!”

Harry suddenly froze. Harry's breath stopped as he watched the group of girls walk by. Harry let go of Kagome's waist and stood straight up. There she was… Kagome felt his body change. Glimpsing up at him slightly she followed his gaze. Harry couldn't stop starring. Kagome tugged his sleeve. Harry didn't respond.

 

“Harry…?” Harry blinked.

 

“Yes Cho…?”

Kagome froze. Cho? Since when had she become Cho? Kagome released her hand and frowned.

 

“Sorry.”

 

Harry rubbed the back of his head. Kagome shook her head and turned away, watching the twins.

 

Looking back over, Harry starred again. Why is this…? Why cant I stop starring…? Closing his eyes he sighed. He was over her. His heart was Kagome's. Why did he suddenly feel these emotions again? After so long…? Harry opened his eyes to see Kagome's blue ones watching him knowingly.

 

“Kagome…”

 

“No. Don't say it.”

 

Kagome bore her eyes into his, “Don't even think anything… It's not a big deal.”

Harry grinned weakly and gave her a curt hug.

 

“I'm all yours Kagome… Don't worry…”

 

Kagome hugged back tightly. Rubbing her back Harry closed his eyes. Harry held onto her tight. Cho is nothing now, nothing more then a friend. Harry opened his eyes half way. Harry closed them, his heart told him so…

 

“You're the only one for me Kagome… You always will be…”

 

~

 

Those words echoed loudly through his ears, like bells they rang clear and yet silent. He felt song they played, course through his body and rattle his bones with every note. Those words… Those words that shall one day be his last words. Scarlet eyes closed.

 

“Priestess… how long will you last? Knowing that your heart dangles on a string…?” The almond eyes opened.

 

“Knowing they will betray you… when you betray them?” A fang glinted in the sunlight, followed by a low chuckle.

 

“But oh… you wont know its coming will you?” The voice gave a sneer.

“You wont know what hit your pretty little face will you? Ooh no… you're too smart for that. You'll know who it is… wont you? Oh yes, you're a smart girl, aren't you? Oh but of course you'll figure it out soon. And you'll fall into pieces… you'll shatter… and when I'm done with you girl… we'll see what little faith you have in your damned friends...”
