InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Forever In Love ❯ Leaving ( Chapter 6 )

Chapter 6: Leaving

 

“Papa, when is mommy coming home?” Kit asked.

 

“Soon, baby, soon,” Yash said.

 

That was always his answer to that question. It had been two weeks since Kagome had fell into the coma. Yash still thought that it was too soon to see her. He couldn't handle being without her. He couldn't sleep, didn't eat. He just didn't have the will to live. He only went on to try to be with Kit, but that was becoming more difficult by the day.

 

The phone rang out throughout the house and Yash let the machine get it.

 

“Hey Yash, it's Kouga. If you don't pick up the phone I'm going over there right now! Kagome is getting better you know? Why don't you go see her? Okay, that's it I'm coming over.” Kouga's voice rang out through the room and Kit felt something was wrong.

 

“What happened to mommy?” she asked.

 

“She got really sick and fell into a deep sleep. The doctor said she wouldn't wake up anytime soon,” Yash said.

 

“Can't we go see her? It's just like the Snow White story! Maybe if you kiss her she will wake up!” Kit said.

 

“It's not that easy honey,” Yash sighed.

 

“Well let's go try! You can't just leave mommy alone like that!” Kit cried.

 

Kouga entered the house and ran over to Yash. “You son of a dog! Get your butt out of this house and get down to that hospital!” Kouga yelled as he yanked on Yash's hair.

 

“I can't do that! Just leave me alone!” Yash shouted back. Kouga had had enough of this. He pulled back his fist and punched Yash right in the cheek.

 

“Kit, go to your room,” Kouga ordered. Kit ran out and to her room.

 

“You no good son of a bitch! Kagome would give up her life for you and this is how you fucking repay her?! When you were in the hospital she spent three days without eating or sleeping just to stay next to you and now that she is in a coma you refuse to fucking see her?! I don't know how your mind works but for me that's fucking low! You don't deserve a girl like her! She is way to good for you!” Kouga yelled at Yash.

 

“You don't think I know that?! You don't think I think about that everyday of my fucking pathetic life? She is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and I'm throwing it all away so she can hopefully wake up and move on. I hate myself for what I've done to her! I broke her heart more than once and I now I know that I can't make her happy,” Yash said.

 

“You fucking idiot! That's not what either of you want! She loves you and you just want to throw that all away for nothing? Neither of you will be happy this way. You asked her to marry you and why would you do that? Why would you fucking ask her to marry you if you were going to throw it all away at the first sign of a weakness. What the hell is wrong with you?” Kouga asked.

 

“I just don't know okay! I'm not okay with any of this! I can't go watch Kagome just sleeping there! It would be like looking at her when she's…she's…” Yash trailed off. He couldn't say it. He didn't even want to think of it.

 

“She's what?” Kouga asked.

 

“Dead okay? It will be like she's dead! I just can't look at her when she's like that,” Yash said.

 

“Your wrong. I'm going to leave now. I'm not going to force you to go, but if you don't then don't bother showing up when she wakes up,” Kouga said and left.

 

“I didn't plan on it,” Yash whispered to himself. He went up to his room and he sat on the bed. He laid on his side of the bed and looked at the side Kagome used to lay on. He ran his hand over the sheets until it came up to the pillow. He pulled the pillow to his chest and took a deep breath.

 

“Oh Kagome. I'm so sorry,” he murmured before falling asleep for the first time in two weeks.

 

~Dream~

 

“Yash! Yash!” a heavenly voice called out to him. “Yash! Please help me! Only you can help me! You have to see me! Please! Yash, listen to me! Don't leave me! I love you! I need you with me!”

 

“Kagome is that you? Kagome!” Yash shouted, but no one answered him. She was gone. She was gone again.

 

~End Dream~

 

Yash woke up and looked at the clock. He had only been asleep for ten minutes. He stood up and rubbed the sore cheek that was beginning to bruise. God Kouga had a hard fist. Yash stood up and went to Kit's room. Kit was curled up on her bed with her eyes closed and hands over ears.

 

“Kit, it's okay now. Let's go see mommy,” Yash said.

 

~*~*~

 

Yash and Kit walked into the room where Kagome was. Yash felt his heart break at the sight. Kagome looked like a sleeping angel. How could she be so beautiful at a time like this? Yash walked over to her bed and gently put a hand on her cheek.

 

“Wake up Kagome,” Yash begged. Kit climbed up on the bed and looked at her mother.

 

“What's wrong with her, Papa?” Kit asked.

 

“I don't know. She just won't wake up,” Yash replied. He sat down in the chair next to the bed and watched Kagome sleep peacefully.

 

“Come on mommy! Wake up!” Kit cried tears rolling down her face.

 

“Stop it Kit. She's not going to wake up. She can't hear you,” Yash said.

 

“Yes she can! She can always hear me! Make her listen Papa!” Kit sobbed. Yash just pulled Kit to his chest and held her while she cried. He couldn't take this anymore. He lifted Kit in his arms and walked out of the room.

 

He walked down the hall toward the elevator. He pushed the down button and the elevator doors opened. He was about to walk in when Kimiko and Kouga walked out.

 

“So I guess I knocked some sense into you,” Kouga smirked.

 

“I was just leaving,” Yash stated and went into the elevator. He left the hospital and went home. By the time he got home Kit was asleep on his shoulder. He went up to her room and laid her on her bed.

 

He kissed her forehead before leaving the room. Everything was just falling apart. What was he supposed to do? Was he supposed to go see Kagome everyday until she woke up? He just couldn't handle that. He wouldn't put Kit through that either.

 

He decided then what was going to happen. He was going to leave. He was going to run. Run as far away as he could.

 

~*~*~

 

Kouga knocked on the door of the house. No one came to answer. “What the hell is going on?” he asked. He had been knocking for at least 30 minutes now. He turned the doorknob and found that it was open. He walked inside and looked around.

 

“YASH! Where are you?” he called out. He found a note on the counter and picked it up.

 

`I'm sorry for any trouble I have caused you, but I have left this life behind. I have taken Kit with me and I believe this is for the best. This way we can both move on and have normal lives. It just wasn't meant to be between us. First I was almost killed five years ago and I should've taken that as a sign that we weren't supposed to be together. Please know that I will always love you, Kagome. I hope I get to see your beautiful eyes once again one day. Love Always, Yash.'

 

Kouga growled and stuck the note into his pocket. “That son of a bitch. Always thinking about himself and no one else,” Kouga said and left the house.

 

~*~*~

 

Yash sat on the train with Kit in his lap. He watched the scenery go by and hugged his daughter. He couldn't do this to Kagome. He didn't deserve her.

 

He loves her, but he knows that he could never make her happy. Everything was just going to fall apart after they had settled down.

 

A young woman came and sat across from Yash. It was Mimi. How was she here?

 

“Hey there Yash. Sorry about what happened a couple weeks ago,” Mimi said.

 

“It's alright. What's done is done,” Yash stated.

 

“Is this your daughter?” Mimi asked looking at the sleeping girl.

 

“Yeah, she's a sweetheart,” Yash smiled.

 

“She doesn't look anything like you though,” she said.

 

“Kagome and I adopted her a couple months ago,” he said.

 

“Where is Kagome?” she asked.

 

“In a coma at the hospital. I couldn't take care of her so I decided that she would be better off without me,” Yash said and looked back out the window.

 

“I'm sorry to hear that. Where are you headed?” she asked.

 

“Far away. Want to tag along?” he asked.

 

“Sure sounds like fun,” she said.

 

Kit woke up and began to rub her eyes. “Are we there yet?” Kit asked.

 

“No honey, but we got a friend to come with us,” Yash said.

 

“Hi Kit, my name is Mimi,” Mimi introduced.

 

“Hi! My mommy doesn't like you,” Kit smiled.

 

“Kit! Be nice!” Yash ordered.

 

“It's all right. I don't blame your mommy,” Mimi sighed.

 

“Why are you coming with us?” Kit asked.

 

“Because I have nothing better to do,” Mimi said.

 

“We are going on vacation for six weeks then we are going back home. Ain't that right Kit?” Yash said.

 

“Yup! I can't wait!” Kit squealed.

 

Yash fell quiet. Why did it hurt so much? Maybe this wasn't the right thing to do. Oh well, he was already half way out, so why not go the whole way? There was no going back after this…
