Demires: The Love Of An Enemy
Nine: Kagome
I spent the whole day thinking; thinking about whether or not to change.
And obviously I decided to be turned.
And when that single moment came, the moment that Inuyasha sank his fangs into the flesh of my neck, I finally realized there was no turning back. I swear to Kami that my soul was screaming to be let go of; screaming to not die. My skin was screaming to heal, my blood screaming to continue to flow through my veins. The pain was not as bad as you would think it to be, not that my body wasn't numb from the contact anyway.
His arms are still around me, and his wrist is to my lips. I'm tasting something sweet, something so sweet words can't describe, something so sweet that I possibly might want more.
Something so sweet that when he pulls his wrist away and I realize it was his blood I was tasting, I don't care. I still want more.
And now I'm wondering what the hell he's really done to me.
Kami, help me.
I feel him lick at the wound he's left on my neck, and then, in a shaking voice, he softly speaks. "Kagome?"
I want to move my neck, I want to look at him right in the eye and tell him I'm all right, that I won't really die, because I know that's what he's afraid of right now, but it hurts so bad; the pain is throbbing.
So, instead of forcing my aching body to make a minor movement, my voice comes out in a hoarse whisper. "Hai."
"Thank Kami," I hear him say quietly, burying his face in the crook of my neck.
"Inuyasha," I whisper, the pain coming through me like jolts of electricity.
"Sorry," he says. "I'll take you to the bedroom."
He carries me in his arms through the winding hallways of the home, until we finally reach the bedroom. He lays me down as gently as possible and I hear myself hiss from the pain it causes in my neck.
Except my voice seems so distant, so far away, as if I'm just there to watch. I feel like I'm only listening to the noises, like my voice isn't coming from my own mouth.
"I wish I knew how much it really hurt," he whispers, brushing the hair away from my face as another surge of pain rushes through my body.
It's like my whole world is spinning away, melting right before my eyes, and it amazes me to think that death has already come and gone.
And now I have the after effects to survive.
How ironic - the after affects to survive when I'm already technically dead.
Another jolt is sent through me, the cause of it being the wound on my neck. The pain of the bite is throbbing, pounding, and I just wish it would go away...
And then, my whole body turns numb.
I can barely see the blurred figure that is Inuyasha through my clouded eyes. Each time my heart beats, it sends a throbbing pain to my head, and I realize what's really going on. My blood is turning cold.
Suddenly, I feel cold - freezing - and I begin to shiver; my body nearly shaking from the painful feeling. I feel as if I'm going to freeze, literally. I know the feeling will pass, knowing how the cycle of the change works, but I just wish it would stop...just wish it would stop...
"Kagome!" I hear Inuyasha say, obviously worried.
I attempt to shake my head, but I'm too frozen in pain and fear to move. I try to speak, but no words come out, just a silent mouth movement that he probably can't interpret.
I watch him take my hand in his, and clasp tightly, seeing the fear in his eyes.
And in that moment, a pain so powerful and hurting that I actually speak somewhat, that I actually make a sound. I scream. I can't take the pain...can't take the pain...
And all this time, I thought it would be easy.
My head's spinning, my world seems to shatter, my body's nearly freezing, I can't move...please make it stop...please make it all stop...
The pain continues, sending my vision into a spiraling picture of colors; every color the human eye can see, and then, there's a flash of white.
And I see nothing.
Nothing but white.
And then here words that seem so familiar, so...so comforting , that it makes me feel as if I'm in the white vision to stay.
"Please don't cry. It will be over soon. Please don't be so terrified; it will all be over soon. It will all be over soon. I promise."
And then, my whole world turns black, tearing the bright white away from eyes.
Now, all I see is dark.
Deep, black darkness.
That's all I see...that's all I feel...
Darkness.
It's where I'll fall.
x-x-x-x
I wake up in the warmth of someone's arms.
I'm just surprised I woke up at all.
I try to move, but another jolt of pain is sent through me, and I wonder how long this will last.
"Kagome?" I hear a voice whisper, and a few moments later I realize it's Inuyasha.
"How long have I been sleeping?" I ask, surprised at how hoarse my voice has become.
"For a day now. But it's all right. Are you okay?" His voice is merely a whisper, and I don't know why. Maybe he's scared.
"I don't know," I say. "At least I can talk."
He moves me up closer to him so I'm sitting in between his bent legs and my back is against his chest. Surprisingly, it doesn't hurt as much I had thought it would.
"How many more days?" he asks. "How many more days of this?"
"I don't know," I say again. "Hopefully pretty damn soon."
He smiles and runs his fingers through my hair. "I'm sorry," he says.
"What? Why?"
"For...for even bringing up the idea of turning you. If I had known...if I had known how much it hurt..."
"Stop it," I say, my voice a weak whisper. "I don't care anymore. Really."
He lowers his head to kiss me, and his lips feel as cold as mine.
Just as cold as mine.
