Chapter 11
Kagome sighed and smiled. She knew her mother wanted her to continue their conversation from before. Bankotsu was in the living room with her grandfather and Souta, trying to impress them with stories of his battles in the feudal era while she was in the kitchen with her mother as she cleaned up their breakfast mess.
"So, Kagome…" Her mother trailed off, leaving her to fill in the rest.
"Oh, Mom, I'm in love. I know last time I told you that I was just interested in him, but I know this is love. Bankotsu is widely considered cruel and heartless by all in the feudal era because he is an assassin and all, but when it's just me and him… it's indescribable. He is the most kind and loving man I have ever met. I thought I loved Inuyasha, but that was nothing compared to how I feel for Bankotsu. It's like this light comes to life inside me every time I see him, but when I saw Inuyasha, I just felt this sliver of hope that quickly died because he never greeted me how I wished he would. Now the only thing I feel for Inuyasha is friendship. I now accept that he is in love with Kikyo and he will always love her. I don't want to be her replacement, and I don't have to be because I have Bankotsu now." Kagome sighed.
The smile on her face spoke loud and clear on how Mrs. Higurashi felt about all this. She was more than thrilled that her daughter had found someone besides Inuyasha to love. She had seen how he treated her sometimes and it worried her how Kagome always used to look at him with a glint of adoration in her eyes.
Kagome continued to ramble on about Bankotsu and informed her mother about their situation. She told her how Bankotsu had died and was resurrected by their enemy Naraku, so technically Bankotsu was supposed to be their enemy, and so they had kept their relationship a secret from their friends.
"So don't mention him around Inuyasha," Kagome warned.
"I won't, dear. I'll even pass that along to Grandpa and Souta," Mrs. Higurashi assured her.
Kagome also told her mother how they had figured out how to get Bankotsu to the present day time period.
"Well, I'm glad that you figured that out or else I wouldn't have met him at all. It makes me happy that I did because I don't know how I would feel if you had told me you were in love with him, but I wouldn't be able to pass my own judgment on him to assume if he is a good match for you or not," Mrs. Higurashi said.
Kagome smiled. "How do you feel about him, Mom?" Kagome asked curiously.
"Well, he's a better choice than Inuyasha, I'll tell you that," she said with a smile, which sent them both into a fit of giggles.
"I think I should give Bankotsu a tour of the future right about now," Kagome said with an excited gleam in her eyes.
She walked out of the kitchen and into the living room with her mother behind her. When she got there she found Bankotsu in the middle of telling her grandfather and her brother about a time when he defeated more than 200 opponents single handedly. It was obvious by the look on Souta's face that he had found a new hero to worship.
"Hey, Bankotsu. I was thinking that maybe I'd show you around. Because obviously you don't have these things in the past," she said with a smile.
Bankotsu looked up at her then looked around the living room, seeming to see everything only just now. Kagome laughed at his expression.
"Come on, I'll show you my room first," she said as she headed toward the stairs.
I'll stop there. Please Review!
