"I believe that our young lad just needs to find his thoughts," she replied, "Though I am concerned about his health, I haven't seen him eat anything since the night before the battle with Naraku."
Just as that was said, Inuyasha entered the hut. He looked as though something had given him quite a scare. The hanyou didn't seem to notice anyone, he just quickly made his way to the back room.
o.O Life is like a melody, sing deep with my soul, sing deep with into me. o.O
Chapter Thirty: A little slice of Heaven!
He hadn't been there long, but he felt so bad. The dream kept flashing back in his mind every single time he closed his eyes. His stomach groaned, it still was empty, but he wasn't hungry. The hanyou was practically wasting away to nothing. Minutes passed like hours and he listened silently as everyone else in the hut had gone to bed shortly after he arrived.
There were a few tiny candles lit and he could see her, even if it had been dark he would have been able to see her. She looked so peacefull lying there asleep. No one had bothered him or asked any questions. Though it seemed that neither Miroku, Sango, or Kaede were mad at Inuyasha for his actions, he hated himself.
At first he didn't realized that he drifted off until he heard Kagome's small whimpering. He opened his eyes to find her shivering under the very thing blanket. He sighed heavily and shrugged off his haori and covered up her with it before leaning back against the wall.
o.O And all these chains that shackle me. They won't let me take control. They wanna take control of me. O.o
Kagome yawned and stretched as she looked around. It was pretty much quiet and dark. Sitting up she unwrapped the heavy cloth from her body and noticed what she thought to be a sleeping hanyou only a few feet away from her head. Noting that he didn't have his haori on, she assumed that he had given it to her.
Unsure about what to do, she put on his outer jacket and crawled over to his sleeping form. Careful about not waking him, she climbed onto his lap and nestled her head into his chest as she snuggled close to him. Kagome felt him tense up underneath her and she lazily looked up and saw his confused amber eyes staring at her.
"Wh-what...a--"
"I'm really cold.." she lied whispering hoarsely so she wouldn't have to move.
The hanyou blinked and leaned over. Kagome thought that he was going to lay her back down, so she clung onto him tightly and he instantly stopped.
"I don't want to move...Please let me stay Inuyasha." she pleaded as her eyes brimmed with tears.
He stopped what he was doing and just looked at her before he leaned in front of him and grabbed the blanket, drapping it over her. Inuyasha smiled a bit as he wiped her eyes and got into a more comfortable position.
"I won't." he whispered kissing her forehead and lightly wrapping his arms around her, holding Kagome close.
Kagome suddenly felt hot, her cheeks were probably flushed and this was the first time that she felt safe from harm in a long time. She could hear his breathing as his head lay lightly against hers. She yawned again and fell asleep comfortably in the arms of someone who actually cared for her. And for the first time she felt cherrished, almost happy.
o.O I've got to rise above my life, to find a reson I'm alive. o.O
Kaede woke up early the next morning. She was sure that the heavens were singing, along with the birds. The light shown brightly at the entrance of the hut and the aura all around was that of something peaceful. She slowly went to the back room to check on Kagome, Kaede stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Inuyasha sleeping with Kagome in his arms with a smile on his face. He didn't look that much like death anymore, but he was still under nurished. Hopefully he would eat later.
The elderly woman happily went and made herself some tea and waited patiently for the others to awaken. It wasn't long until the monk woke up from a might of meditation and for Sango to rise with tiny dark circles under her eyes. Kaede waited for them to wake up completely before she informed them of what she had seen. Eagerly, both Sango and Miroku climbed onto their feet and went to look at the "precious" sight. It would brighten up the harsh days and put a smile on everyone's face for at least one day.
Miroku was the first to leave the hut after recieveing a "Love slap" from an angered demon slayer. The old preistess couldn't help but laugh at the two adults before she left to make check-up runs around her village. Sango only fumed for a few minutes before she heard a yawn. Going to the room, she saw a tired hanyou look up at her and his face went completely red when he realized that he hadn't been dreaming when Kagome crawled into his lap during the night.
"I...uh...she..." he stuttered.
"You don't have to explain," Sango smiled, "I understand....She needs you Inuyasha....I heard her calling for you in the afternoon."
"She called for me?" he asked completely shocked.
Sango could see how surprised Inuyasha was and it was cute as he gazed down at Kagome's sleeping form. He looked so happy and almost lovingly at her. The demon slayer sighed as she just stood ther in awe.
"But when she wakes up..You need to eat." Sango said seriously, "Becuase we all know that you haven't been eating Inuyasha."
He nodded as he gently hugged Kagome closer to his body. Taking it as her cue to leave, Sango went outside into the fresh air. She inhailed deeply as she stretched out her sore muscles. Today she didn't hear the giggles of the village madiens, and when she looked around she didn't see any of them either. In fact, Miroku wasn't around trying to cop a feel from her all day.
It was a bit disturbing not to see Miroku on his usual search for a beautiful woman to bare his child. Sango sat down on the ground and lazily wrote her name in the dirt. Her knees drawn up to her chest as her long hair hung loosely from her shoulders. Today was going to be a long day.
o.O I'll save myself, I'm all alone. I've opened my heart, to see there's nobody home. O.o
Miroku sighed heavily as he sat alone on a grassy hillside. It had been a little more than a week since the defeat of Naraku and he still hadn't told Sango his true feelings for her. He lazily fingered the rosary that still was wrapped around his hand. The monk frowned as he stared at it, it would be the down fall for him.
'But Naraku's defeated. Should I check and see if my wind tunnel ceases to exist?' He asked himself. 'What if it's still there? And when I take off the rosary I get sucked into it? What if I don't? Would Sango ever want to be with a lecherous monk? Does she even feel as I do?'
He was in deep thought for the whole morning. He was so confused about everything and he wasn't sure if he was confident enough of for himself or his own safety.
"How can I not know the truth, if I don't look?" He asked himself aloud.
Finding the courage, Miroku climbed onto his feet and stood up. The sun was high in the sky and even though it wasn't hot out, he was sweating like there was no tomorrow. Gripping the rosary in his hand, he breathed heavily as his heart pounded in his throat. Closing his eyes, Miroku ripped off the rosary and immediately began to yell.
o.O It's up to me, I'm on my own. The message of life is turning, facing the storm... Facing the storm.. O.o
Kaede came back to her hut a while after checking on all of the villagers. She thought about the health of the hanyou and young maiden that were peacefully asleep when she left. Sure enough, as she walked into the tiny hut, there was Inuyasha and he had began to eat the leftovers from the night before.
"It's nice to see ye during the day Inuyasha." Kaede smiled, "Even better seeing ye eat something."
"Feh," He said swallowing the stew, "There's nothing wrong with a man eating is there old hag?"
The old woman laughed at Inuyasha. The hanyou had tried to sound rude, but it came out more like a sarcastic joke. She watched his face brighten up and could have sworn that she saw a smirk on his lips before he went back to eagerly stuffing his mouth with food.
"Slow down Inuyasha." She warned him, "Or ye might choke."
He tried to say something, but he swallowed wrong and go figure, Inuyasha started choking on the stew. The elderly priestess couldn't hold back the urge to laugh, but for so much she just snorted a bit and then she sat down and began to boil some water for some tea.
"Would ye like some tea?" She asked.
"NO.." He replied wiping his mouth with his sleeve, "I need to have a conversation with a lecherous monk about something. But thanks anyway."
"Thanks? When did ye learn manners Inuyasha?" Kaede laguhed, "Are ye feeling well?"
"Feh, whatever old hag." he said leaving the hut.
It didn't take long for Inuyasha to reach the monk, but since he looked like he was thinking deeply about something, the hanyou retired into the branches of a near by tree and waited.
Inuyasha's ears twitched as he heard Miroku get up off the ground frowning slightly, the hanyou continued to watch his friend confusedly. The smell of persperation and fear filled his nose and Inuyasha wanted to gag.
'What the hell is he doing?' He thought as he watched Miroku grab his rosary. 'Is he going to? What the fuck!'
The hanyou's eyes widened in surprise as Miroku practically tore off the rosary from his hand that surpressed the wind tunnel. Inuyasha braced himself for the severe winds, but nothing came. He did hear Miroku yelling as though he was being sucked in himself. He opened his eyes and stared at Miroku before he started laughing.
His tiny fits of chuckles grew into hysterical fits of roaring laughter even after he fell out of the tree. That is when Miroku shut his mouth only to have it drop to the floor when he saw Inuyasha struggling to breathe, he was laughing so hard. Miroku frowned.
"What's so funny Inuyasha?" he asked a little confused.
"Y-you!" Inuyasha laughed wiping a tear from his face, "You shoulda seen your face monk! It was priceless, just priceless!"
"Are you implying something?" Miroku was so confused and it seemed to show.
Suddendly Inuyasha grew serious as he stood up and brushed himself off, then walked up to his friend. "Miroku," he said. "It's gone...Your wind tunnel is gone...So get off your ass and go find her...And once you've got her, don't ye dare let her go!"
Miroku realized how intelligent the hanyou sounded, even if he was mocking Kaede a bit. He looked down at his hand and saw that Inuyasha was right, his cursed wind tunnel was in fact gone! His eyes widened in shock and then happiness before he dashed away. He was going to take Inuyasha's advice.
o.O My life is filled, with your memories. You were deep with in my heart. You were deep with inside me. O.o
Okay that's it for this chapter. I don't own "Facing the storm" by Saliva that I used for my scene changers, but the song is great! If you want the lyrics, email me and I'll send them to you. Miztikaldragon@msn or yahoo.com but label it "Lyrics to Saliva". The next chapter will be out in three days. and I want to thank every person who reviewed. Most likely the sequel will be "Back to you" and NOT "Through the well part two" that people want me to call it.. *awkwardly glances at her audience* ....meh...bad tittle...no offense..but bad tittle.
Chapter Thirty-one: Miroku and Sango!
Until next time, this is Krystal.
