A/N: my first attempt at a song fic, so be nice! I loooove this song! DDR got me hooked on it!

Chapter 5~

~*Kagome's Dream*~

Song fic to "Heaven" by DJ Sammy

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
we're in heaven

Kagome could smell the fresh air. The hospital melted away and she opened her eyes. Before her was a breath taking view of mountains in the distance. She was in a tree. Looking behind her she saw a sleeping Inuyasha who was holding her so she wouldn't fall out of the tree. This was all so perfect! He slowly awoke and smiled at her. She tried to shift so she wasn't directly laying on him but nearly fell out of the tree in the process. The jewel shards fell from her pocket and hit the ground with a small thud. `That would have been me in Inuyasha hadn't caught me!' Kagome couldn't help thinking to herself. He leapt down from the tree as soon as he made sure she had a proper grip on the tree and picked up the shards. He looked up at her and called, "C'mon! Let's go get some breakfast!" Kagome hesitated a minute.

"How am I supposed to get down?" Inuyasha just laughed at her predicament and held out his arms. Somehow she knew he wouldn't be coming back up to get her.

"Jump." He had to be kidding. "Don't you trust me?" Kagome just looked at him and he laughed. "C'mon! I'm hungry! I'll catch you!" She took a deep breath and slid forward off the branch.

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart

Plunging toward the ground, Kagome held back a scream and squeezed her eyes shut. She let herself fall so her back was facing the ground and hoped beyond belief that he would be there to catch her. The wind suddenly stopped rushing past her ears and she felt two strong arms encircling her. Her downward descent had suddenly stopped. Opening her eyes she saw two golden eyes staring back at her laughing.

It isn't too hard to see
We're In Heaven

"That wasn't so bad, now was it?" She had to giggle at herself for being so afraid and he set her down on her feet gently.

"Let's go find the others!" Kagome grabbed Inuyasha by the wrist and dragged him towards Kaede's hut. `This is how it's supposed to be,' she thought to herself. Running off dragging him behind her, she saw them standing outside. Picking up some snow she quickly rolled it into a snowball and lobbed it at Sango's back. Sango turned around scowling but quickly changed to a smile when she saw who had thrown it. They had been eating breakfast outside enjoying the beauty of the snow. Kagome and Inuyasha joined them and after she had finished eating, Kagome quietly made up a snowball and lobbed it at Inuyasha.

oh thinkin' about our younger years
there was only you and me
we were young and wild and free

Inuyasha turned and growled in mock anger. Smirking he copied her actions and returned fire. Soon the whole gang was in the middle of a huge snowball fight.

Now nothing can take you away from me
we've been down that road before
but that's over now
you keep me coming back for more

Kagome took shelter behind Kaede's hut and started building a snowball mountain to start a new counter attack against Sango who, for someone who had never been in a snowball fight before, was surprisingly good at it. Kagome was so engulfed in her work that by the time she heard the crunch of the snow behind her it was already too late. She felt the hot breath stroke the back of her neck and she froze. She turned around slowly armed with only a snowball and looked straight into the face of a very angry looking demon. Its eyes were fixed at her neck where she was wearing the jewel shards. Kagome started to shake as it lowered its bear-like head even closer to her face. With a single swipe of its paw she was laying flat on her back on the ground. Her clothes were ripped and she was bleeding profusely from her side. She wanted to scream, to call Inuyasha, but she couldn't. The youkai raised its paw once again, taking aim at her throat. Kagome willed her eyes to close but nothing happened. The demon stood over her and stretched itself to its full height, raising a single paw. The gigantic paw swept down with powerful stroke meant to kill, but it suddenly stopped. In a movement almost too quick to see, the bear demon's attack had been cut short by a powerful gust and it now lay motionless on the ground yards away. Kagome painfully stood up and looked around for the source of what she knew was the wound of the wind, the wind scar. Seeing him she ran and threw herself at him. She caught him off guard and they both fell to the ground.

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
we're in heaven

She pressed herself into his arms searching for comfort and he returned the embrace without asking questions. She sobbed quietly into his chest and wordlessly he lifted them both up and carried her to Kaede to tend to her wounds.

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're In Heaven

She buried her face further into his shirt and took a deep breath smelling his scent. His sent was deeply calming to her. It gave her the warm fuzzies inside and somehow she knew she would be safe. Her sobbing stopped and she let herself relax in his arms. He didn't even seem to care that her blood was soaking through his clothes.

We're in heaven

It was so small, it was barely even noticeable, but Kagome noticed it, all right. Before he set her down in front of the old miko he had given Kagome a small but deliberate squeeze. Kagome smiled through the pain. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara had run to her when they saw Inuyasha carrying her broken body to Kaede. Without missing a beat Kaede barked out orders for each to get something necessary for Kagome's recovery. Inuyasha, as usual, was the only one left without a task. Kaede simply told him, "I think it best if ye stayed."

Now nothing can change what you mean to me
there's a lot that I can say
but just hold me now
'cuz our love will light the way

Kaede quickly wrapped Kagome's side in bandages and waited for the others to return with the herbs she needed. She also worked to bind a few of Kagome's ribs, which had been broken with the powerful paw. Kagome looked up into Inuyasha's eyes, seeking comfort and found where there was usually anger and hatred, pure worry. Kagome couldn't bear to see him like this. It wasn't right for Inuyasha to look worried. Kagome pushed her self up into a sitting position despite both Kaede and Inuyasha's protests and gingerly pulled him into a hug.

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
we're in heaven

She felt him relax in her arms. This was better. She felt his hand stroke her hair gently and he whispered her name. Kagome wanted so bad to tell him, but there was no way. It just…couldn't be.

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're In Heaven

Inuyasha carefully lowered her back to the floor as if afraid she would break, but Kagome didn't want to let go of him. Not yet.

Now our dreams are coming true
through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

He smiled at her and made no more attempts to get her to relinquish him from her grasp. His eyes looked so different from how she usually saw him. It was like the way he looked at her the first time he had tired to kiss her…when he thought she was Kikyo. That must be it. She was reminding him of Kikyo! The hurt must have showed in her face because the hanyou stroked her face whispering her name again as if it were a question. "Kagome?"

we're in heaven
love is all that I need
And I find it there in your heart
it isn't to hard to see
we're in heaven

He had stopped trying to put her down and was now doing the opposite. Their eyes closed and the distance between them was closing rapidly

We're in heaven
