Last time:


She looked at him like he suddenly sprouted a second head…”I TOLD YOU NOT TO FOLLOW ME!”


Inuyasha gulped,
shit, now what?



Kagome continued to glare at Inuyasha as he moved to get closer. I swear is it too much to ask for some alone time. Ugh, I understand he loves Kikyo.  I know that I have no right to be mad at him, but I think I have the right to sit and mope about the situation.





“Hmph…” Kagome stood up with fire in her eyes. “Inuyasha, go back to camp right now.  How come everytime I don't want you to follow me I turn around and your there?  Just go away, I’m not in the mood to deal with you right now.” She turned her head to the side each word slowly getting lower her anger deflating at the end of her rant.  She stared at him trying to hold back her tears. I will not let him see my tears.  He already thinks I'm weak enough.





Inuyasha turned to stare at her, she looks so…broken. His ears drooped, thinking about the unintentional lie. I swear Kagome it’s always been you as my true mate.   That bastard tricked me.




“Kagome, please just come back with me it’s not safe out here,” Inuyasha internally shouted with glee, of course she’ll come back with me.  I just have to convince her a little bit more. “I know that wolf-shit pissed you off,” he continued with his eyes closed not noticing her posture stiffening, “but if something happens to you, then you know that the perv, the kit, and Sango will never leave me alone. They always worry about you ya know.  I mean your always getting kidnapped, so it’s just smart to stay with the pack,” Inuyasha stated.  Ha, I’m a genius! She may be pissed at me, but she’s smart enough to know that if a demon came by that it would snap her like a twig. I saw those “moves.” I dunno who Billy Blanks is but he sure can’t fight worth shit if that’s how he fights during combat. Besides she would never upset the runt and Sango, well maybe Miroku, but definitely not the two of them.





He turned his back to her, offering her his back to ride on.  He finally released a small smile when he heard her move towards him, that’s it, now I can claim… However, he didn’t feel her comforting presence on his back, instead he sensed her standing not three  feet away from his body. He opened his eyes, as he turned his head to watch her. she was looking at the ground unable to meet his gaze which struck him as odd. “Come on wench, let’s go finish that game. I’ll even catch some fish if you’re still hungry,” Inuyasha said in his usual cocky tone. Why is she just standing there? Come on wench…you have to come with me now or else…come on…please Kagome! Guess I’ll have to pull out the big guns, “I’ll tell ya what, we go back to camp and tomorrow we can back to the village to take a short break. I'll even let you go home for a whole day. Are ya ready to go now wench?” Kagome remained still, only a fractional clench in her fists which did not go unnoticed by Inuyasha. He started sweating, growing desperate, “Hey come on Kagome, don’t let what that bastard say get to you.  He’s making shit up. You’re not really his true mate, it’s just not possible.”





Kagome finally looked up, Inuyasha finally seeing the damage done to his best friend, his love. What made everything worse was the fact that he could only blame himself…and Kouga. Her eyes watery, eyebrows clenched with withheld emotion: angst, desperation, anger, and…revulsion?  Kagome, what have I done?




She whispered, “How…how is it not possible Inuyasha?” The look she pinned him with would haunt him for the rest of his life. “Is it so hard to believe that someone could  truly love someone as ugly and unworthy as I am? Is it not possible for someone to not treat me as a worthless being.  Apparently I can't even walk by myself without a demon or whatever attacking me! Why can’t he be my mate? We all know that you already have one.  So why don’t you just leave me alone got it?!” Kagome screamed, as birds flew out of the trees, clearing the area.




The forest stilled as all noise ceased with the exception of Kagome’s heavy breathing. I'm just so tired.  She whispered, “Is it so hard to believe that someone could love me for me, not just as a copy. I won’t be a replacement Inuyasha.” Not even for you.




He looked up appearing stricken, “You’ve never been a replacement for anyone, Kagome.”




She faced him head on, “You continue to lie right to my face!  You’ve told me millions of times that I couldn’t compare to Kikyo! Of course I couldn’t she’s the perfect woman right? I mean she was the strongest miko alive, she was gorgeous, brilliant, and hey, she’s obviously your true mate. So what is their not to replace? Oh right, the fact that her body’s made out of clay. She’s probably not that warm and soft either,” Kagome sauntered up to him, stopping right before him, “I am man's bed warmer. I am no one’s replacement, and if you can’t get this through your thick skull I’ll say it again…I am Ka-Go-Me!  So if you want me in your life then your going to have to give me some space.”



He gulped, “What do you mean by space?” And I know you’re not his true mate cause your mine!




She never looked away from his eyes, “No more carrying me around on your back.  No more holding hands or sitting on your lap.  No more acting like a child around Kouga. Finally,” she looked away, “you are not allowed to follow me back to my time anymore.” She looked out into the distance.  It hurts too much to look at you. I need a place without you. I need to move on because if your always there then I won’t be able to focus on anyone but you. Its better to start distancing myself now, and maybe one day you truly will be only my friend. Right now, you’re so much more to me.



He continued raking his eyes over her body, taking in her stance, she looks so sad. There is no way I can’t not touch her.  She doesn’t even sound like she wants me near her. “Aren’t you being a bit extreme Kagome?” he tried to joke, yet inside his heart felt ready to burst, there aint nothing funny about this.




She glanced at him through the corner of her eyes, “It’s the same way I treat Miroku, we are only friends after all. You don’t see me sitting on Miroku’s lap or anything, its inappropriate.”




“You were fine a bit ago, I didn’t hear you complaining…well much anyway,” damn Kagome, please just let this go…I need to touch you, to be near you.  You can’t get away from me. I won’t let you.




She sighed, “I won’t go back with you if you don’t agree Inuyasha.”



Damn, what do I do, either I agree and she’ll return willingly but she’s basically making me give up any claim on her anyway. Or I don’t agree and just grab her and run for the hills, but then I’ll have to make her hate me, and watch her run right into Kouga’s arms.



“Inuyasha, is it a yes or no? It’s not a very difficult question?”




Damn it wench…you have no idea what you’re talking about, but when it comes down to it, the choice is obvious. “Fine wench I’ll agree, on one condition, no shut me out. If you’re going to treat me like that monk then ya still have to talk to me about some things alright?” If I can just convince her to stay in her life as someone she can trust, then I can use that.



She looked at him on the sly, why the hell does he care? For how many years have I sat him to the ground cause he wouldn’t talk to me? NOW he wants me to have a conversation with him? RIIIIGHT. She shrugged her shoulders, “I guess…”



Inuyasha nodded before saying weakly, “I won’t carry you or bug Kouga anymore…” He turned his head away. Kagome cleared her throat, “And…I won’t…touch you…,” she cleared her throat louder, “or go into the well okay. Can we leave now?”



She nodded, “Yea lets head back.” He bent down indicated for her to get on his back, “Can I carry you back this one last time? It’ll take forever with how far you walked out here.” He chose not to mention that Kagome overlooked a shortcut which could easily lead back to camp. I need Kouga to believe that she still wants to be with me, if she’s on my back like normal and a little steamed at me then everything will look normal.


Would it hurt to have one more ride? I’m going to miss it so much, but…
“I’ll walk, I noticed a pathway when I was looking for the ‘demon’,” she looked at him wryly, “and it should lead right back to camp.” She started walking, “But feel free to go ahead of me. I wouldn’t mind some time to myself.” She walked ahead fighting back her tears, no use prolonging the inevitable.  If I had one more ride I would never let him go.



Kagome…you may not want me to touch you now, but I promise koi by the end of the night you’ll be mine.
He looked up to the sky, eyes vulnerable, pleading for help, I need her…I love her more than I ever loved... His eyes widened as the realization settled in.  He remembered her tweaking his ears for the most random reasons.  He remembered resting his head in her lap as the poison consumed his body.  He remembered her stroking his hands after he ruthlessly murdered those bandits...human bandits.  He felt his fingers tingle remembering the sensation of her soft hands stroking his own.  




He looked at his claws, well I’ll be damned. He flew through the trees watching her from the branches. Keh, right as if I will ever let you go koi. He thought of Kouga and he smiled a look so evil that it would have made Naraku tremble in fear.




By the end of tonight Kagome’s gonna see what kind of scum bag you are wolf shit…




And she’ll also be mine…for good.




Sorry that took me so long, but life gets in the way sometimes. Please review! I would really appreciate it!
