Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha
Okay so guys, this is the first fanfiction I have ever written, so please give me any pointers you have and reviews would be great! That's all I really have to say for the time being, other than I will try and update weekly at least because I know how frustrating it can be to wait a long time for the update of a really good story, though I don't know if this will be any good. Anyways, I hope you enjoy it!
The morning sun shone through her window and instead of grumbling and pulling the blankets over her head, Kagome smiled as they kissed her skin and opened her eyes to a beautiful day. She sighed happily at the thought of an entire summer ahead of her, that there was no more school to worry about, and that she would be able to spend her time however she wanted without worrying about responsibilities and obligations.
She pushed the blankets from her body after a few more minutes of relaxing in her warm bed, and stood up. Wincing slightly at a small pain in her abdomen she went to the mirror and stared at herself, brushing the thought of pain out of her mind. She stared at herself happily, taking in her long raven hair, messy from a good nights sleep. She was wearing a red t-shirt and matching panties, and for the first time in her life she smiled to herself as she thought ‘I am beautiful.’.
She was eighteen now, a young woman, mature and intelligent. Not only did her good natured personality reflect this, but her body as well. She had filled out during these three years, and all her physical activity in the feudal era had kept her fit and slim. She was, to most men, the vision of perfection, but to herself we was content with being just pretty.
As she walked slowly towards the bathroom to take a shower she started ticking off the list of things she would be needing for the summer in the feudal era with Inuyasha mentally. This continued throughout her shower as she shampooed her now mid back length hair, shaved her legs and under arms and rinsed herself.
As she dressed she rechecked her bag, and smiled. If she had forgotten anything it wouldn’t be too much trouble to come back and get it. Even then, maybe she could convince Inuyasha to leave her a week or two with her family, so she could spend time with them at some point during her vacation.
Shouldering the back pack, she headed for the door, and passed by the kitchen in the meantime, stopping of course to have breakfast with Souta, gramps and her mother.
“Take care of yourself Kagome, and don’t hesitate to visit while your gone.” her mothered hugged her goodbye, and smiled warmly. She knew how much this meant to her daughter, to have an entire summer to spend with Inuyasha, time enough to determine whether her love was a futile hope or the beginning of a blossoming relationship.
“I will mom, don’t worry. Besides, if he doesn’t let me I’ll just sit him until he can’t move.” she smiled warmly, and hugged her younger brother.
“Behave okay? Maybe I’ll bring Inuyasha back to play video games with you.” she laughed at her brothers wide grin, knowing full well how much he idolized the hanyou.
Finally, she turned to her grandfather and hugged him, smiling as he reminded her to stay clear of any nasty demons and to be sure to pick him up a keepsake while she was there.
She had brought home many artefacts over the past three years, and everyone loved them, especially her grandfather. His interest in the history of the goshinbuko and the bone dwellers well was insatiable, and so he had nothing more to do than comply to his wishes and bring him back anything she saw that she thought would catch his eye.
“Well, I’m off. Take care everyone!” she waved to them before running off to the shrine, and pulling the doors open. Without hesitation, she pulled them shit behind her and jumped into the well, landing softly on the other side.
“Its about time, wench!”
She turned her head upwards to stare at Inuyasha’s face hanging over the side of the well, looking down at her. She smiled and waved to him, holding up her back pack.
“Hello to you too. Can you help me with this?” she asked him, pleading with her best puppy face.
“Feh” was his reply as he jumped down into the well compliantly, taking the heavy back pack from her.
‘Gods, its good to have her back. I thought I would die without her smell…’
Inuyahsa smirked at his thoughts, and thanked the gods that he no longer had Kikyo to stand in his way. He jumped out of the well with the back pack as the scene from six months ago played in his mind.
Flashback
“I can’t go with you Kikyo, I can’t go to hell with you.”
His voice was soft and pitiable, but firm. He meant what he said, and he would not back down. It had taken two and a half years to realise just how much he loved Kagome, and that no matter how much he felt the need to fulfill Kikyo’s wish, that he was incapable of doing so. He knew that this doll was not the miko he had known and called friend, and after Kaede had made it clear to him that she too agreed with what he thought to do, there was no turning back.
He had left the village while all were asleep, none but Kaede knew what he left to do.
As he stared into the eyes of the dead priestess, her soul stealers swirling about her, a pang of remorse set into his heart for the woman he had known and loved, but was no more. Kagome was all he wanted, and Kikyo’s doll was all that stood in his way.
“You have no choice, you owe this to me!” Kikyo replied, stating it as if were written in stone before her very eyes.
“You are not Kikyo. Kikyo would not ask me to do this: She would not ask me to sacrifice my life in order to satiate her revenge. She would take away my life and thus the chance of being with the woman I love.” his last words were whispered, barely audible, but somehow he knew she had heard them.
With one step towards her, he closed his eyes and listened to the silence that surrounded them, and drew Testsaiga.
“You will not do this Inuyasha! You owe me your life!” the clay doll screamed at the top of her lungs, tears streaming down her ceramic skin.
“Be at peace, Kikyo.”
He rushed forward and with one swipe, destroyed the doll that called itself one of the greatest miko that ever lived.
End Flashback
He had felt no remorse that day, just a weight lifted from his shoulders and a new, light hearted feeling that stayed with him until this day. He had told the others in the morning when he returned of what he had done, and it had been the happiest day of his life as he watched the tears at bay in Kagome’s eyes, knowing not what she was crying for, but sensing it was good.
Now she was back from three weeks of exams, and entire summer ahead in which he could spend with her. He would tell her this time, after these years. There was nothing to hold him back anymore. ‘I love you Kagome.’ He closed his eyes and smiled, imaging her in his arms, holding her, kissing her soft lips, rejoicing in the feeling of finally admitting to the one thing that he was never able to say, and how it felt rolling from his tongue.
“Hey baka! You gonna help me out of here or what?” her voice rang out in the forest as she attempted to climb out of the well herself, and he smiled, turning to her once again.
Going to her he smiled down at her, his eyes reflecting something she had never seen before, something that made her breath catch in her throat as he pulled her over the side of the well and into his gently embrace.
“Of course.” he whispered, his voice husky from the scent of her, from her touch being so near after so long. It was then Kagome almost melted into his chest, and was glad for his firm grip on her, because suddenly her knees gave way beneath her and she was left cradled in his strong arms, her heart pounding in her ears.
