Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha, so please dont sue me!!!!

Hey there, it's not all that I had orginally wanted to put in this chapter, but after going back over my outline I decided to shorten it by a few things, but they will be in the next chapter to even everything out. I don't know when the next update will be but I'm counting on reviews in order to keep this story going. I don't know if people are actually reading my stories anymore, and I really need an ego boost right now, I hope you understand -.-

Chapter Six Part B

Time passed by quickly and sooner than InuYasha guessed, did Kagome wake up. Her brown eyes were in a dazed state and as she rolled over onto her side did she realize that she was completely naked underneath all the fur. A blush covered her face as she looked at InuYasha, he was doing no better than herself, but the look in his eyes spoke many things that she could not comprehend. Taking the fur with her as she sat up, Kagome let her long ebony hair fall over her shoulders, she didn’t remember making it to InuYasha’s cave.

Her head ached and she felt like she was the worst person in the world. There was one thing that she thought she would never break her word with InuYasha, but she did and it hurt her to no end. Everything bad that could happen to her was and she had no way to escape any of it. Choking back a sob, Kagome brought her knees to her chest and hid her face behind her hands, she didn’t want to cry in front of InuYasha, but she couldn’t stop herself from doing so. Kagome felt the warmth of InuYasha’s arms around her body as she fought to hold back her tears, but they came like a tidal wave and she tried to stop, but they just kept on falling.

“Shhh,” his voice was soft and comforting as InuYasha held her close to his heart. “Please don’t cry Kagome, it tears me up inside when you do.”

“I’m so sorry InuYasha,” she cried into his chest as she clung to him for dear life. “I promised that I would stay away, but I couldn’t.”

He didn’t know why she was crying so hard, but it couldn’t have been just because she had not kept her promise. Something like that was simple and didn’t need to be worried about unless it was consistently happening, but it wasn’t. His cheek laid in her silky black hair as he rocked back and forth, trying to soothe her trembling body. If she didn’t stop getting so upset, she would make herself sick, physically sick and even mentally.

“I’m not mad at you Kagome,” his clawed hand rubbed against her upper arm trying to warm up her cold flesh. “You shouldn’t be crying over something that small. I’m not worried about it, but please don’t cry.”

“It’s happening all over again,” She whispered into his chest. “Everything that you thought was over is happening again and I don’t know why.”

InuYasha wasn’t sure of what Kagome was talking about, but he had a pretty good feeling that it wasn’t going to be good. Kissing the top of her head, InuYasha closed his eyes and tried to think about what she was saying. What was happening again? Pulling her closer to him, he felt her tense body trying to relax against his own, but her sobs still wracked her body and it was a little difficult keeping his mind in one place.

“What are you talking about Kagome?” He wanted to know what was happening and if it was something that the two of the should be worried about.

“Naraku,” Kagome said wiping away the remainder of her tears. Her face was red and her eyes somewhat swollen, but she had to tell him. “He-I- He wants me to marry him.”

“WHAT!?” His voice was louder than what he had wanted and it made Kagome cringe in fear.

“They’ve been watching me since Koga saw us,” she continued shakily, “The villagers, their eyes watch me like a hawk and I can’t escape and Naraku is always near me, I can’t get away from him either. Then earlier while I was reading to him, he stopped me and asked me to be his wife, but the look in his eyes told me that he wasn’t asking--Oh InuYasha I don’t know what to do, I can’t refuse him, but I can’t marry him either!”

This was something that InuYasha wasn’t expecting to hear, but it put his mind at ease only a little bit. Sure he understood that there was an unnerving feeling aura around Naraku, but InuYasha was never close enough to determine what it was that irked him about the forty-year-old minister. Things were definitely not looking up for him, but he knew that Kagome would eventually have to marry Naraku, there just was no avoiding it. He could feel his heart breaking as he watched the girl in his arms as if she was as fragile as a blade of grass. He was going to end up loosing the woman he loved no matter what choice he made.

Kissing her forehead gently, he wracked his brain, he needed to find a loop hole. Sure he could just tell her to stay with him, but what about her family? He couldn’t just ask her to leave everything that she held dear just so she could be with him forever. It was something that he absolutely couldn’t do. InuYasha swore that he felt the weight of the world on his shoulders as Kagome touched his cheek, he was more upset than she was and that was saying something. Looking down at her, InuYasha stared into her lost brown eyes and he felt a pang of guilt in his heart, he was helpless and the both of them knew it. Lowering his face to hers, InuYasha could feel the heavy and hot breath against his lips and it made his skin tingle. No matter what happened to them, he always would know that he was in love with Kagome and nobody would be able to take that away from him.

Their lips met hesitantly at first, the two of them were afraid that this would be their last close moment and neither of them would ever want it to end. His hand cupped her cheek as he captured Kagome’s lips into a demanding kiss, he would take whatever could be given. The intensity increased as her tongue swept over his closed lips and as he parted him, her tongue dipped into his mouth before he took the initiative and began to dominate their closeness. His hands caressed her as he guided her to lay back against his makeshift bed of furs, it was as if the fire was getting hotter because he couldn’t breathe.

His lips left hers and trailed a path from her jaw line to the inside of her neck, hot open mouthed kisses lying in the wake. It was her moan and the fact that he neared her heavy chest and that she was laying completely naked underneath him that he stopped and pulled away. InuYasha wanted to continue, but something in him wouldn’t allow him to take what wasn’t his. Yes he did love her, but who was he kidding, a girl like Kagome belonged with a man from the village, not a monstrous thing like himself.

“I’m sorry,” He whispered, his breath husky and shaky, “I can’t do this, I just can’t. You have to go back to the village, you shouldn’t be here with me.”

“InuYasha,” her voice filled with fear as she sat up, her eyes were wide and he couldn’t keep himself from avoiding them. “Please InuYasha, please don’t do this.”

Getting to his feet, he turned away from her, InuYasha couldn’t help but hate himself, yet he felt as though it was the right thing to do. The hanyou went over to the rock where Kagome’s nightgown laid and brought it to her, she needed to get dressed before he changed his mind. She took it from him and begged him to look at her, but he couldn’t, he was too ashamed of himself for even tempting fate, and it hurt.

“Please InuYasha,” she was yelling now, she was frantic and knew that she was going to loose him. “I don’t want to go back to the village! Don’t make me go! Please InuYasha, I can’t face them, I don’t want to leave you again!”

“You don’t belong here with me,” it was all that he said, but it made all the hope Kagome had left drain from her body.

Kagome had no strength left to keep going, InuYasha had made the decision and he was leaving her to the sharks, he was abandoning her. She collapsed to the ground as her knees buckled, she had nothing left. InuYasha was at her side in less than the blink of an eye, his arms wrapped around her body, she was angry at him and confused. Her hands gripped his deerskin tunic and she tried to pull away, but he held her tightly, she couldn’t escape him either.

“WHY!” She shouted, “Why can’t I belong with you?” Kagome was completely loosing her mind, but she couldn’t stop herself from continuing. “You’re being stubborn InuYasha and I can’t give up on us! You’re so stupid why can’t you see what’s in front of your face? Please don’t make me leave you InuYasha, please don’t make me leave! I love yo---”

He couldn’t take anymore of it, her words were killing him on the inside and before she could finish, he pinched the nerve in her shoulder and rendered her unconscious. It was hard for him to do this, but he had no choice. He was sure that if she stayed with him that Naraku would most likely come after her no matter what, and if they couldn’t find her then the villagers would most likely go after her family. It was a lose/loose situation and he couldn’t bare to have her family pay the price just so he could have her in his arms. It just wasn’t possible.

Gathering her up in his arms, InuYasha slowly walked out into the snow it was so cold and he didn’t understand how it could be burning hot in the cave, but as cold as ice outside. His mind pulled him several different ways as he took the rugged path to the village, he wanted to have her back in her bed before the sun rose, and that wasn’t too far away. Leaping into the air, he believed that he would make better time if he ran, there was no use in trying to act unsuspicious because there would hopefully be nobody awake to see him as he brought Kagome home. The village was quiet as he entered ten or so minutes later, it was something that he remembered as a child and he had cherished it, but now was a different story.

InuYasha made it to Kagome’s home hopefully unnoticed and easily snuck inside. He didn’t want to be there long and sure as hell didn’t want to get caught, so he stayed as quiet as possible and tried to make no noise. He could plainly hear the snoring of the elderly man, probably her grandpa, but InuYasha didn’t deter from what he was set out to do, get Kagome home and leave as soon as possible. Going into her room, he went over to her bed and laid Kagome’s unconscious body on the rather uncomfortable bed. Saying goodbye was something that he didn’t like too well, but it wasn’t like it could be helped. Covering her body with the thin blanket, InuYasha brushed the hair away from her face and sighed heavily, she was so beautiful to him.

Deciding that it was time to leave, he leaned over her sleeping form and placed a chaste kiss on her lips before he stood up straight up and headed out of the home. He was going to try and live the rest of his life as best as he could, but he knew that it wouldn’t be a happy one. Misery was something that he would welcome because it was what he had chosen for himself, it was something that he believed that he deserved. He didn’t realize that he was at the entrance of the forest until he looked up, but he didn’t stop for too long. Taking one last glance at the town of Salem, he closed his eyes and exhaled, he would not be back.

“I love you too Kagome.” he whispered disappearing into the trees as the sun rose.

So yeah, that's the chapter for this time. Please leave a review, I would like at least five before I start writting the next chapter.

Until next time, Krystal.
