InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Watching You ❯ You'd Never Know ( Chapter 1 )

AN: Check the bottom AN for clarification. I got this idea really late one night about three months ago. It's a one-shot only. Don't ask me why I wrote it. Just put up with the corniness until the end please.

WATCHING YOU…

You don't know that I watch you. At least you never show signs of acknowledgement. But I know who you are, what life you live. You travel through time, coming to see me. I await every one of the days, my heart pounding for the day that I can tell you of the things you have done to me. How you have become my life. How you are a part of me.

I live every day, only hoping to see you. Praying that you don't stay in that time. Praying for the day when you will give up that life and stay with me. My only wish, that you could finally understand me when I don't talk to you, when I can't. Hoping that you will forgive me in the end, and accept me as your guardian.

Your soft eyes, raven hair, and accepting ways are enough to make anyone fall in love with you. How I didn't for such a long time, I don't know. But it's been a long time that I've loved you now. I live through all these lives, hoping and wishing.

Sometimes I wish the crazy religious guy would leave and perform his little "rituals" elsewhere, that I may be alone with you. I wish the annoying child would quiet for once, so that I may listen to your every word. I wish the quiet, but firm woman would stay out of your business, so that we may learn to love each other in peace.

If only I could communicate my feelings better. If only I weren't so dismissive. I pretend that I don't watch your every graceful move. I pretend I don't hear you speak those kind, beautiful words. But how long can I keep this up. I feel my façade slipping as I fall more in love with you each day.

You talk to me, remain by my side, even scratch my ears when you think I'm asleep. I love you for it. For your acceptance and everything else that makes you, Kagome. But you can't understand my feelings. I can't open up to you and let the flood of pain and longing escape.

So, until the blessed day that I am freed, until the day when I can love you with your knowledge, until the day that I can fulfill my greatest dreams, I will love and admire you from afar, known only as your loyal pet cat, Buyo.

I decided to repost this with a new Author's note so you understand better. Alright, no, Inuyasha was not reincarnated as Kagome's fat cat. It's a weird short story ok? Just hang with me. As for the weird religious man…it's Kag's grandpa, not Miroku! The annoying kid is Souta, not Shippou. The serious woman is Kag's mom, not Sango. I'm sooo sly, aren't I?! Ok!! Yeah. No comment. I got bored and finally decided to type this out. I had it in my head forever, nagging at me. If anyone reads this, tell me what you thought. I need more chocolate…
