Going Home

**********



Kagome was still in a daze after what she had heard.

Kagome, Kagome?

She heard a voice calling her name. "Yes?"

"Are you okay?"

"Yes? why what happen?"

"Well, Inu Yasha and Kikyo are still waiting for a replied. You know about their marriage and stuff." Sango told her.

"Oh, their marriage! Sorry bout that! Well Congratulations!" Kagome shouted trying to sound excited, "when is it?"

"I, uh..." Inu Yasha was about to answer when he was cut off.

"Tomorrow!" shouted Kikyo excitedly.

"But, why so soon?" Inu Yasha asked confusedly.

"Oh, dear! I know you think we should kill Naraku first, but if we married then we won't be apart. Right!" Kikyo answered sweetly.

"I'm sorry... But I can't come." Kagome said while looking down at her knee. 'If I look up and see Inu Yasha's face. I would only start to cry, and I don't want him to feel sorry for me. I, I have to forget about him...now.'

"What do you mean you can't come?" asked Sango and Shippo.

"W-Well, you see…" Kagome stammered for a while, "I have this uncle of mine. We are really close… and he's like a father to me. He just past away two days ago…" Tears began to roll down her checks. She knew she was lying, but the thought of losing Inu Yasha was too much for her to bear. "And tomorrow is his funeral… mom says I have to be there and…" She broke down and started to cry. She couldn't hold it in anymore, but why was she crying for Inu Yasha? After all… he has Kikyo…

Inu Yasha Pov
I stood there…watching her cry. I wanted to go over there and hug her… to make all this pain and suffering be gone for her. Then I noticed Kikyo. She grabbed my left arm and pulled on it. So instead I just stood there dumbly watching as more tears came down Kagome's eyes.

"There, there Kagome… I know its been hard on you. I know how it feels to lose a love one." Sango told her, trying to comfort her.

"Then this leaves us one choice, Inu Yasha. You have to reschedule your marriage." Miroku said.

"I…agreed." Inu Yasha answered. He didn't want to do the wedding without Kagome because if it weren't for her…he would be lost right now…

"B-but," Kikyo pleaded trying to think of an excuse. "We can't do that!"

"Why?" Inu Yasha asked calmly.

"Because… I don't want our wedding to be cancel. All because of her!" Kikyo yelled, pointing to Kagome.

"If Kagome doesn't come…then I won't come either!" Shippo declared, while folding his arms over his chest.

Inu Yasha could understood why Shippo won't come, but still try to make an excuse to reschedule the marriage. "See Kikyo, that makes two of my friends."

"But that's only two, hon." Kikyo pleaded more.


Kagome Pov
A friend. That was all I am to Inu Yasha. No, just one of Kikyo's replacements. I understand now… How could I forget… I'm just his shard detector. I didn't mean anything to him.
"Please don't cancel it because of me." I tried to sound happy, but Inu Yasha knew I was faking it.
"I mean it a wedding! Besides Inu Yasha you might never have a chance like this again." I chuckled a little so Inu Yasha would stop doing his, 'Kagome what's wrong' eyes look.

"See sweetie it's settle then." Kikyo smiled happily.

Inu Yasha just gave a nod. As he looked back to Kagome when he noticed she wasn't there.

Kagome had already sneaked outside. She didn't want anyone to know, especially Inu Yasha. Kagome then ran as fast as she could to the well. But as she did her eyes became waterier again. "Forgive me everyone! For leaving you like this!"
