Previously

Inuyasha's eyes watched the trees as he waited for the girls to come out from the brush. Just as there came a rustling, the hanyou jumped into the air and left, he needed time to think and Miroku knew this.

"Where's Inuyasha?" Sango asked Miroku.

"He's left again it seems..." The monk replied.

"Oh," Kagome hugged her shoulders and looked up at Sango, "I'm going to head back to the hut...I'm kinda tired..."

"Okay Kagome, but be carefull..." Sango eyed her friend cautiously.

o.O Turn me inside out so I can see. The part of you that's drifting over me! o.O

Through the Well

Chapter Thirty-seven: Looking at the past to decide the future.

Kagome walked silently back to the village, sh had a lot of things to think about, and sort some of the questions that plagued her mind out. She sighed heavily as she passed through some trees.

'Boy, I miss my home.' She thought, 'I miss all my friends, all the things that I'm missing out on; school, relationships, being normal. OH, how I miss being so carefree.'

Slowing down her pace a bit, Kagome gazed upon her surroundings. It's true that in her time there wasa no open fields of trees, wild flowers, or just tall grass and that there was a lot of pollution, but for some odd reason she missed it all the same. She couldn't see the hanyou watching her from a distance, but as she drew closer to the village, she felt hereslf becoming upset.

o.O I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pills. Give you anything want, give you hundred dollar bills. o.O

Inuyasha watched Kagome from a few yards away, he had to find a way to keep her there with him. His dog ears twitched and he couldn't really explain what he was feeling at the moment.

'Why must I feel as though I'm lost? Can it mean that in such a short and somewhat miserable time period that I've actually fallen in love with Kagome? Why is it when it's just her and I and we are so close, I yearn for her touch, for her smile, for her laugh? Does the thought of Kagome by my side make my heart flutter like butterflies? How can I make her see how I feel? Or is this 'being in love' just another one of the weaknesses that I show? Kami, I wish that she would talk to me, tell me how she truely thinks about me.'

(For some reason, I'm all about flash backs so please bare with me!!!)

He smirked cornering her against the tree. "No where to run," He chuckled getting closer to her. He watched as Kagome looked around and darted to her right. Inuyasha, however, had seen this coming and grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her back up against the cheryy blossom tree. He could see the fear present in her eyes and hear the faint music from Kagome's c.d. player, it annoyed him now. With his free hand, he pulled the headphones off her ears and gently unhooked the machine from her waist, tossing it to the ground.

"Hey! I was listening to that!" Kagome said agitatedly.

"So...And I should care?.....Why?" he smirked as he grip on her wrist grew tighter.

"Because, I was listening to a--" Her eyes widened in shock and her cheeks grew red as his face inched towards hers. Her eyes stared instensly into his. Inuyasha could sense her body grow weak. Letting go of her wrist, the hanyou gently ran his clawed fingers through her lohg black hair.

Kagome turned her gaze away from him and whispered, "I can't......It's wrong.."

Inuyasha hooked his fingers underneath Kagome's chin and lifted her eyes to meet his gaze once more. "If it's so wrong, then whydoes it feel so right?" He whispered back closing the space between them, pressing his lips gently against hers.

(O.O ((coughs)) uh, yeah, good fluff.....mmmmm...lol)

That was his first time kissing Kagome and even if it was only an innocent kiss, somehow it ws passionate and he seemed at peace with himself for a brief moment. It was exactly the same with every other time he held her in his arms, kissed her or was just alone and close to her. She had affected the way he thought, the way he acted, and it was all too confusing to think about.

o.O Don't speak, I know just what thinking, I don't want your reasons. Don't tell me cuz it hurts! o.O

Kagome sighed as she entered the hut and immediately went back ito the room where she slept and sat down next to her backpack, dumping out all of the materials inside it. She sorted out all of her things, then replaced them neatly back into her bag. ((we can say she's psycho now! lol j/k))

She had only been in this time, Inuyasha's time probably less than a month. So far in that small time period, her life had grown hectic, relaxing, horrifying, nostalgic, and many other things. Picking up her backpack, she heard something hit the wooden floor.

Glancing down, she spied a long silver chain. It was pretty small and there was a ring on it. Kneeling down, Kagome picked up the ring. It was just a golden band, and had a tiny inscription on the inside that read, "Over hill, over dale, Let out love never fail."

The ring had been her mother's and it had been given to Kagome before she had passed on. She clutched the ring and heldit close to her chest. Tears of sarrow sliped down her face, she really missed her mother and sometimes she just couldn't bare tha pain.

o.O First I was afraid, I was petrified. Just thinking, how I'd ever live without you by my side. (lol!!!) o.O

Inuyasha waited a few minutes after watching Kagme enter the hut before he jumped down from his hiding spot and walked to the hut himself. Carefully he leaned against the entrance to the room in which Kagome was. He waited for her to notice him, but she never did or just refused to show a sign that she saw him. When she began to cry, Inuyasha felt upset, he hated to see women cry, but especially her. Going to her side, the hanyou wrapped his arms loosely around kagome's petite body.

He would have expected for her to pull away and start yelling about nonsense, but no, she gripped his haori and and cried into his chest. He held on tighter to her and whispered comforting words into her ear, patting her back absently.

"It's okay Kagome," He whispered laying his chin on her head, "Don't worry, just let it all go.."

They had sat there for a long time, Kagome held the ring close to her heart, and Inuyasha held Kagome closer to his. Finally when her sobs turned into sniffles, the hanyou could breathe again. He felt so bad and guilty when she cried and he had no clue why.

"Thank you Inuyasha." Kagome sighed into his chest.

Reluctantly letting go of Kagome, he looked into her puffy eyes. Sadness is what sparkled from her gaze and subconsciously he wiped the wetness from her face. Getting up onto his feet, he brushed himself off and helped Kagome slowly to hers.

"It's no sweat off my back Kagome." He said softly.

Kagome smiled slightly and hugged her shoulders. She didn't know what to say about his sudden caring emotions as he held her, she didn't know how to react. Lowering her eyes to her feet, Kagome left the hut, she left Inuyasha standing there, a confused expression played on his face. She needed somewhere to think.

o.O If you want to, I can save you. I can take you away from here. So lonely inside, so busy out there, and all you needed was somebody who cares. o.O

"So Miroku," Sango sighed, "How much did you hear?"

"What do you mean how much did I hear Sango?" He asked a little surprised. 'How does she know that I know?'

"I heard your movement in the bushes." Sango said matter of factly, "Besides, I can always tell when you're watching me. The atmosphere changes.."

"Oh," Miroku blushed, "I heard all of it, but if you knew that I was there, why not do what you usually do and maime me?' The monk questioned.

"Because I wanted you to hear everything," She answered, "Because I know that she loves him. I can see it when I look at her. It's also a feeling I get when they are near each other, the air is peaceful. You understand what I mean?"

"Oddly enough Sango my love, I do understand." Miroku said, "That's why I had to tell Inuyasha. He had to know that she plans to leave him. It wouldn't have been right if I cheated him of a chance of happiness, even if it's only for a brief period. I could live with myself if I didn't tell him."

"How did Inuyasha take the news?" Sango asked curiousl, "What did he say?"

Miroku frowned slightly as he recalled his conversation with the hanyou not so long ago. "Well he was really confused to why she would want to leave and so soon after Naraku's defeat. So I told him that if he really cares for Lady Kagome, to try and make her see how he feels. I told him that if he didn't, he might just loose her for good..."

"You said all of that?" Sango said surprised.

"Sango my dear, what's that supposed to mean?" He asked curiously.

"Sorry if it sounds rude and all, but wow. I never knew that someone as perverted as you could say something with such a simple and have such an unlecherous meaning, that's all." Sango replied honestly.

Hurt by her words, the monk took the demon slayer's hands into his and stared into her deep brown eyes, staring right into her confussion and insecurity. He let a sad expression creep onto his face and he sighed before releasing his grasp on her soft hands and turned his back, facing away from her.

"Why must you treat me so Sango my love?" He asked pretending to be a little hurt, but trying his hardest to hide his smirk. "Do you really think of me so little and as only an insenetive and lecherous monk? Am I really that unbarable?"

"No...." She blurted out placing her hand on his shoulder, "I didn't mean it that way!"

o.o All my work and endless measures, never seem to get me very far. Walk a mile, just to move an inch now even though I'm trying so damn hard. o.O

LOL!!!! What is Miroku planning? I KNOW I KNOW!!! Okay, just as a little gag, I have made a little character anaysis of the gang. I don't mean to offend anyone, but I thought this would be funny, and am just trying to make you reader's smile!! OO and another thing. I looked at the names of everyone who has me on their favorites and author alerts! And know what I found out? That about half the people who have me on their favs, or author alerts don't review! lol oh well, just thought you'd want to know!

Okay now to my "I've stolen the gang's brain and probed it with a spork" thingy.

Inuyasha: Well let's just say he's too stubborn for his own good and has a commitment problem. ((ONLY FOR THIS STORY!!!))

Kagome: She's just downright stupid and naive in this story and I know it's sad!

Shippo: Uh, what can I say? He's dead!

Kaede: (clears her throat) Okay, well besides her oldness, she drinks too much tea, and I'm always asking myself if she's ever water logged after I finish typing up the chapters she's in..

Sango: Okay, well she's stubborn, intelligent, but very and I mean very slow with realizing things...You'll soon find out what I mean ((points to Miroku's non-existant wind tunnel! It's been gone for twelve chapters and she hasn't realized it yet!!))

Miroku: okay, he's perverted and sneaky, but hey I have nothing against him! lol ((holds her imaginary Miroku plushy))

SO that's all and please don't flame me for this, I just woke up and anything sounds funny right now!

Chapter Thirty-eight: True love's kiss!

Until next time, Krystal.
