Chapter 5 She's In Love

 

 

 

Third of June she said goodbye I watched her walk into the night, the hardest thing I ever did was let her go, we swore as friends we'd stay in touch, but best of friends don't mean that much when that phone call comes to tell you she's in love, she's got that fire in eyes, she's in love, how her smile lights up the sky it's like she's walking on air she been set free, still I can't believe, she's in love, strolling down a one way street, she's in love you'd swear her heart had wings, she in love why can't it be me.

 

 

He howled with the wolf, and he finally realized they were gone, and he did not, he could not save them, even if he had been saving them both the past five years, and yet when it had mattered most he failed both of them, he failed his love. Springing from the tree and landing on the ground, he walked torwards the hot spring, the smell of both their blood on his clothes was making him sick. The rest of the group needed him he realized, they needed his leadership, and they needed his friendship. Reaching the hot spring he threw of his clothing off, and dove in his mind wandering to the very moment he lost her love, he had came back from searching for Kikyo, upon reaching the campsite he almost fainted, there was his Kagome, with that mangy wolf's head in her lap, and she---, she was stroking his hair, and that's when he noticed the wolf's men were sitting right next to his Kagome. Something was wrong here and he was going to find out why his Kagome was acting this way.

 

She looked up at him, and his heart broke again, for the second time that day, her eyes, he could see, she had made his decision for him, she took control with her own two hands, and now from that one look he knew that all he had left was the memory of Kikyo. He watched as she slipped the wolf's head off her lap, he watched her stand, he watched the mangy wolf's men stand up with her as to protect her from him of all people, and that enraged him. She spoke the words “Give us a minute ok.” Then she walked torwards him, there was no happiness shining in her eyes like every time before this, and there was no smile on her face, his ears flattened on top of his head, as she reached him. “Kagome?”

 

She looked into his eyes, and spoke with unemotional tone, “Follow me Inuyasha.” That was all she said to him, then she turned from him, and started to walk into the night, of course he followed. He followed her until they were out of hearing range, she was still leading him, she never turned around to look at him, the feeling of dread started to rise from the pit of his stomach, and he finally realized he should have never left the mountain to look for Kikyo, he should have stayed with Kagome, that was what his brain was telling him.

 

He followed her, to the edge of a cliff, she spoke before he could explain his self; “I have decided to make the choice of me and Kikyo, for you.” His heart dropped, and then it's beat doubled in his chest, desperation, resounded in his voice, “Kagome!” Holding up her hand stopping him from any other comment, he looked into her eyes, and that's when he saw pain, and something else, something he was afraid to believe, something that he never saw, or had ever seen from any other living creature, it was love that was shinning in her eyes. She spoke then her voice weakened with every word, “Tell me that when you look at me you don't see her, tell that every time I touch you don't think it's her, and tell every time I feel love for you that you don't think of her!”

 

He once in his godforsaken life did not know what to say or do, and it cost him everything he loved, cause she spoke again, “I have decided to give Koga a chance to love me, and I have decided to try to love him in return.”

 

He came up from the spring breathing air into his lungs, in moonlight, as the fireflies danced around the hot spring giving it almost unearthly feel, he looked like a fallen angel, white hair shinning in moonlight anyone standing and watching could feel the sadness, and pain for it was thick in air, as he broke the surface of the water, looking around he made his way, back to the shore, as his thoughts once again returned to the past, to the time when he could have what he always wanted, and how he blew it.

 

He spoke then, and that was the stupidest comment he could have made, “Are you stupid or something?” Once those words left his mouth he knew, his heart knew, he should not have said those words. Her eyes that were once shinning with love changed to anger, and then she spoke softly, just above a whisper, watching her face, he saw, and smelled a tear, as it rolled down her cheek, “The hardiest thing I will ever do in life is about to happen right now, and that's letting you go, but I swear to always to be your best friend.” Inuyasha watched her walk away from him, that's when; he realized best of friends would never mean that much, if Kagome were in love with someone else.

 

For the next couple of months he watched, he watched the wolf, and his Kagome, fall in love, he watched her eyes when she looked at the wolf, a fire that was not there a couple months ago, a fire in her eyes that once was only seen when she looked at him. He watched as Koga earned that smile that was supposed to for only him, a smile that only lighted any sky he was under. She still talked to him, and smiled at him, but was not the same as the way she use to talk to him, her heart had grown wings and flown away from him.

 

He wanted her to see him like she used to, he wanted her--, he wanted her love him like she used to, he looked at Koga, and then Kagome, she was holding his hand by the campfire, and he thought why can't it be me. He stood then, and walked to the hot spring were Kagome, and Sango had bathed tonight, what he never counted on was the monk following him.

 

Told everyone I am doing fine learned to get on with my life, I just want what's best for her so I lied, found a note on my door last night said I'll be your friend till the day I die, but you should know I found someone, now she's in love, she in love, she got that fire in her eyes, she's in love, how her smile lights up the sky, it's like she walking on air she been, she been set free, still I can't believe, she in love, strolling down a one way street, she's in love, you'd swear her heart had wings, she's in love why can't it be me.

 

He stopped at the hot spring gazing into its depth; he tensed when his monk spoke, “Are alright Inuyasha?” He spoke not turning around, “I am fine Miroku, go back to campsite.” He felt Miroku come closer to him, and then he felt a hand touch his shoulder, “We've been friends for years Inuyasha and I know something is bothering you so you might as well tell me, I am not leaving until you do, it has something to do with Kagome and Koga right.” He lied then and there to one of his friends, “The battle with Naraku, is coming, and it's going to be soon, promise me Miroku, promise, that you will help me protect Kagome.” He turned and looked at Miroku then, he had to find a way to tell Miroku how much Kagome meant to him with reliving too much of his emotions to him.

 

“She'll be our friend to the day she dies, that's why you need to help protect her.” Not telling Miroku, she found someone else to love, and he would love her till the day she dies, he would not tell him thinking that would tell to much. Inuyasha, then grabbed Miroku's shoulders, “Promise me you will help to protect her, cause if we ever lost her, my heart would forever be cold.” With those words Miroku finally understood, the fire in Kagome's eyes when she looked Koga, that's the same fire she once looked at Inuyasha with, and he finally realized, his friend, lost the one thing that mattered most to him he lost his heart to Koga, but he was asking him to help keep what he loved the most alive, when the time came. He answered, “You out of everybody should know, that I would never allow anything to happen to Kagome.” Miroku glanced at his friend, and he smiled and looked at him, Inuyasha spoke then, “Kagome, will be my friend till the day I die, and I will always protect, her until then.”

 

 

She's in love, well she got that fire in her eyes, how her smile lights up the sky, it's like she's walking on air she been set free still I can't believe, she's in love, strolling down a one way street, she's in love, you'd swear her heart had wings, she's love why can't it be me, Oh now she's in why can't it be me, she's in love.

 

He walked to the banks of the hot spring, picking up his clothes, the smell of their blood, was there, he threw his clothes into the hot springs to wash away their blood off them, and he remembered Miroku's last words, “ Sometimes when you love something, you have to let it go.” He picked his clothing up out of the water, he put them on with out drying, and he knew he had to face the wolf he had the jewel, and anyways his pack was in the village and they were hurting, even if she's in love with someone else she would want him to take care of the rest of the group, he turned and look one last time at the hot spring, one tear slid from his eyes as he mourned his lost his love, “I will take care of them, Kagome, and Shippou, they will be fine.” He turned and walked to the village, with three wolves still howling their pain into the night. Time to face him, time to do what is right.
