Regret & Shame

Kagome smiled as a ray of sunshine escaped through the treetops and blanketed her face. Her body was a bit sore but nothing a couple of stretches wouldn't take care of, she rolled over to place her head on Inuyasha's shoulder but he was gone. The priestess sat up with a start and pulled her kimono on then reached for her tunic, after becoming fully dressed, she grabbed her bow and quiver leaning against the tree she was beneath. An evil aura! She faced the direction the disturbing feeling was coming from. A demon - but…Inuyasha, so that's where you got to. Kagome smiled, they were actually pretty close but the aura was low, nothing Inuyasha couldn't handle by himself…one handed even. She grinned but is didn't stay long and she sat down to await his return. The dream was going to end shortly; they'd have to hit the road again after the festival ended that was if Inuyasha waited it out. They had to find Naraku and enter a horrible battle with him, and then they had Kikyo to contend with. Her little fantasy of playing house would have to be put on hold and it was so much harder to deal with it now, considering the night they had just shared. We can't ever again! At least not until everything is dealt with. Kagome stood and walked back to the village just as the aura vanished, if she waited one more minute he would come flying through the trees landing just in front of her. She couldn't see him just as she was telling herself that she couldn't freely love him yet, it defeated the purpose. This is just the way it'll have to be…for now.
Inuyasha entered the tiny clearing and was shocked to see her gone; he began to panic but her scent indicated that she had returned to the village. But why? I didn't - she should've felt I was near and battling that low class nothing. He picked up his kimonos and finished dressing. He grabbed Tetsusaiga and leisurely headed for Kaede's hut. Why would she leave? Does she regret it now? Is she ashamed? I should've used my brain and stopped us last night. His face contorted and he watched the ground pass beneath his feet. I don't regret it.
