Inuyasha’s true love (My immortal)

By Kriszty

Chapter 1: That evening

Inuyasha and Kikyo were in the forest, staring at each other. They had just met a minute before. They weren’t doing anything, just staring. Little did they know that someone was watching them from behind a tree.

“K… Kikyo…” Inuyasha started the conversation. He was shaking, but only a little bit. It was hardly visible.

“Hello, Inuyasha”

Kikyo was firm and she knew what she wanted. She wanted Inuyasha – not more, not less.

-

“Inuyasha, are you listening to me at all?”

“Calm down, wench. Stop shouting in my ears, you make me half deaf!”

Kagome sat back on her place next to the fire and sighed. Sango and Miroku were drinking their tea with their “we’d-better-stay-out-of-this-one-as-well” face on.

“Sango-chan, would you like to come with me and go to look for Shippo? He should have been back with the wood by now…” Miroku said while standing up and making a move towards the forest.

“I’m right behind you, monk. Just stay 10 feet away from me”

“Oh, but my dear Sango…”

“Miroku, just go”

The disappointed monk sighed and the couple left silently.

“Hm?” Kagome looked around surprised “Inuyasha, where have all the others gone?”

“Keh, how should I know?”

Kagome sighed “He’ll never change” “So, as I was saying before, do NOT eat those cookies, I made them for Kaede. Inuyasha, you’re not listening again!”

“Yes, I do!” Inuyasha turned around, and Kagome saw what was in his hands… and mouth (A/N: guess :-)).

“INUYASHA!” Kagome screamed. Inuyasha looked at her, than realised the mistake he had made, and shaking really badly groaned “Kagome… Please… Don’t…”

“SIT BOY! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!”

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”

“Inuyasha, how could you!” Kagome screamed with watering eyes “You ate the cookies I made for Kaede!”

“Mmmppp…” was his answer from the 20 feet deep hole he was in.

“I… I…” and Kagome started to cry, running in the forest.

“K… Kagome! Kagomeeeeee!” Inuyasha shouted as the spell was off him, but there was no answer. “Damn stupid wench, running away in this dangerous forest because of some stupid cookies… I’ll never understand women…” And with that comment Inuyasha went to search for Kagome.

-

Kagome grew tired quickly, and when she finally stopped, she sat down on a rock.

“Why was I so upset?” She asked herself “I mean, Inuyasha was always like that. Selfish, arrogant, egomaniac… He never listened to me. Maybe… Maybe I was hoping that he would change? Change for me? Oh, I’m acting stupid. He’s like that, I can never change him. I should go back, and see if he calmed down. The others must be worried about me already”

She stood up and started walking back, when she heard a familiar voice.

“Kagome! Kagome, where are you? Kagomeee!”

“Inuyasha came looking for me… That’s surprising. Hmm… Maybe I just hide behind this tree, and scare him when he walks by. Lucky he’ll change into human this night, he won’t sense me with his weakened demon powers. Just you wait, Inuyasha, you’ll pay for eating those cookies…” She smirked playfully.

“Kagome, where are you? Kago…! m…me…” The shout was suddenly cut off.

“What happened? Is he in any danger?” Kagome thought troubled. She peeked from behind her hiding place, and her heart sank. Inuyasha was there… with Kikyo.

-

“Hello, Inuyasha”

Kikyo was firm and she knew what she wanted. She wanted Inuyasha – no more, no less.

The girl behind the tree sighed. Kikyo froze for a second. “Good, she’s here. It’s about her, as well. I want her to hear this” She thought and relaxed.

Inuyasha didn’t notice the sigh. He was lost in his thoughts – trying to figure out what to do. “Kikyo… She’s my past and part of my present. But… But… Do I want her to be part of my future as well? Or… Or do I want Kagome to be my future? I’m really not ready for all this. But first thing’s first: I have to find Kagome, before she gets into trouble, and then I can think of anything else”He sighed “Why am I always in situations like this one when I’m with Kikyo? This is unfair…”

“Inuyasha, we need to talk”

Inuyasha sighed again. “Here goes”

“I know, Kikyo. There are a lot of things we have to talk about – but before that, I have got to do something very important. Could we meet here tomorrow, at about sunrise?”

Kikyo looked in his eyes, and tried to figure out if his sudden and very important thing had to do anything with Kagome.

She nodded slowly. “Okay, as you wish”

“Thank you. See you tomorrow” and with that Inuyasha was off.

Kikyo turned around and shouted “Kagome, you can come out now!”

There was a sudden sound – it seemed like Kagome dropped something. She quickly collected it, and stepped to face Kikyo.

-

Kagome’s heart raced like crazy. “It’s their business; I should stay out of it. But… But I have to know the truth. I would never forgive myself if I ran away now. This time I’m not going to run away. I want to know exactly what’s going on in Inuyasha’s heart. I want to know…I want to know if he loves Kikyo… Or do I? No” she sighed “I want to know if he loves me”

She listened to them very quietly, and she was very much surprised after hearing Inuyasha’s words. “Important thing? What could it be? Could it have something to do… with me?”

As Inuyasha was running away, she sighed again, and collected her stuff to go back to Shippo, Kirara, Miroku and Sango. Then she heard Kikyo, and her name… Kagome froze and dropped her Discman. She picked it up quickly, collected her stuff, took a deep breath and stepped to face Kikyo.

-

“What do you want, Kikyo?” Kagome’s face was full of determination. She was not taking her eyes off Kikyo; she knew the way the dead miko liked to play her little games.

“Kagome, listen up. Inuyasha is probably going to choose between us during the night. So I don’t want you near him. What I want is him to think clearly and alone. If any of us would be around him, we would only influence him” She grinned “I’m sure he’ll choose me if this stupid girl won’t be in the way. By the way… He’ll choose me anyway. But it’s better to be safe, she could be dangerous”

“What makes you think I’m not going to talk to him?”

Kikyo sighed “What an idiot… What does Inuyasha see in a girl like her?”“How about both of us spend the night here, not leaving this place? I’ll create a barrier so we won’t be disturbed, and this way you can keep an eye on me – and I can keep an eye on you”

Kagome didn’t like the idea of being together with this woman, but she didn’t want to meet Inuyasha. “What would I say to him?” She definitely didn’t want to miss the moment when Inuyasha says farewell to one of them.

“Deal”
