Title: The Heart Says in Silence, What it Fears to Say Aloud

Chapter Five: Sueños

Shrouded in the black of the night, running; feet pounding onto the earth as though the devil were at his heels, his striking silver hair flying about, Inu-yasha didn't dare look back.

She was gone.

The hanyou was sitting with his back up against a tall tree watching his companions, eyes closed for moments at a time, he would shoot up, fighting the sleep that beckoned him.

When the night progressed and it seemed all would be fine and there was not even the tiniest scent of a demon other than the young fox kitsune and himself nearby, the hanyou allowed himself some relief from wake.

But when his amber eyes opened searching for the familiar sight of the miko…for Kagome, she was no where in his sight and her scent only a faint wavering thing in the breeze.

How could it have happened? Her blood, the blood of a young and powerful woman, he could smell it but why hadn't he been able to noticed it earlier? Why hadn't the hanyou been able to sense the impending doom before hand?

Why hadn't he been able to save Kagome?

All he could see was everything in front of him, as he tried to get nearer to her, try to see her face, or catch a glimpse of her hair; anything to let him know that Kagome wasn't far from him.

Inu-yasha ran for hours, days without stopping and no matter what he did, how far he went he could never seem to get any closer.

"KAGOME!!!!!!"

Her named yelled like it was of the greatest importance and in essence it was….at least to him.

Inu-yasha's call for her echoed through the wide forest and he couldn't hear an answer.

At that moment he would have been more than willing for Kagome to "sit" him, anything as long as she was with him.

Then he heard a voice calling out to him, it was soothing and loving, all the things he craved, it reminded him so much of Kagome.

"Inu-yasha….Inu-yasha…..Inu-yasha…wake up, its ok. I'm right here. I didn't leave you."

Inu-yasha was lying on his back with Kagome kneeling over him, her hands worrying over his face as she whispered for him to wake up and leave the nightmare behind.

The hanyou shook his head ferociously, "No…have to get…Ka-go-me….took her…away…away from me. I have to….bring her…back….back….to me."

"Inu-yasha, its ok you don't have to-"

He shot up, "No I have to find her!!"

The sun blinded him temporarily and he felt a gentle hand on his shoulder. Then Inu-yasha looked to his side and saw who the voice belonged to, it was Kagome, but how?

"I lost you, but you're back how?"

She offered a comforting smile and dabbed away at the sweat that marred his brown with a white handkerchief.

"You were sleeping and I heard you call out for me."

The hanyou took a deep breath and gave a loud, "keh," to retain some of his composure.

The lovely miko touched his cheek, "What happened? Were you afraid?"

He shook the girl off of him and stood up trying to gain some control over himself.

"Nothing happened you just got yourself lost again, damned wench can't even stay put in my dreams."

She looked up at him with those same bright and adoring eyes.

"You were worried about me."

Inu-yasha turned and faced the opposite direction to hide the shades of red that made their way to his face.

"Keh!"

A knowing, satisfied smile crept its way to the miko's gentle face and she stood, ran her hand down his back before getting up and walking to her monstrosity of a back pack.

"I'll make you some Ramen."

Everything that had happened mere moments ago faded away into the backdrop; the pair continued on as though nothing had happened, not even a dream.

What would you do if you knew how I felt about you?

"Oi wench are you going to get on my back sometime or not?"

The hanyou called out to her as Kagome was in the process of making sure she had everything in her back pack.

"Just hold on a minute will you? I need to make sure that everything's here dog-boy."

"Maybe we should just leave without you, eh Miroku?"

The monk just gave a loud sigh in answer to his hanyou friend.

"Yeah right like you would leave me, you need me remember?" she huffed as she walked toward the silver-haired boy.

"Yeah, yeah." He smiled.

Regardless of their incessant bickering the miko climbed onto the back of the stubborn half-demon and sighed as she smelled his hair.

"You tired already wench, we haven't gone anywhere yet."

"Just get moving Inu-yasha." She yawned.

Kagome drifted softly into sleep with the guarantee that should anything happen whilst she dozed, her hanyou guardian would make sure nothing would befall her.

Half-way during the journey to the next village Inu-yasha did nothing to wake the sleeping miko but smiled when he heard her mumble his name in her unconscious state.

I love you, Kagome.

A/N:

I want to thank everyone for their reviews. I edited the chapter as those who've read the original chapter five can see, everything is different other than the first half or Inu-yasha's dream. Also the title of this chapter means dreams for those who want to know.

The song you mentioned beforehand was "My Immortal" by Evanescence and I do plan to incorporate the song into the story sometime later. Thanks for your review.

I am a fan of Avril Lavigne, I think a few of her songs really go with the relationships between some of the characters. (For those who don't know I used Avril's song "Take Me Away," in the original version of Chapter Five.) Thanks for the review.

Thanks also to FirePrincess and FushigiYugiFan for the reviews.
