Disclaimer: Hey, guess what? I don't own Inuyasha. I'm not a mangaka and I am cetainly not Rumiko Takahashi. I write about Inuyasha cuz I love the show not because I have legal authority to be creating a plotline or story about Inuyasha or any of the other characters. If I did, Inuyasha might just still be going on instead of ending with such an open-ended conclusion. I do have my own stories with my own characters just so you know.

Uh…no

1. My way: this chapter is the way I would ditch that lowlife Kouga if I were Kagome. Warning: Kouga has no mercy under the wrath of a humungous Inuyasha fan such as myself. You have been forwarned of possible Kouga bashing.

Kagome smiled, twirling her hair. Naraku had been defeated and Inuyasha finally admitted his feelings to her. She was in a form of unbelievable bliss…until a certain wolf shows up.

"Kagome," he breathed, grabbing a hold of her hands, "I have returned to wisk you away to a wonderful life with me."

Kagome, although nice in the past, was in no mood for Kouga to ruin her perfect relationship with Inuyasha. Rigth now, he admitted his feelings and she admitted hers. They were happy and not arguing. If Inuyasha noticed Kouga, his might get angry, especially if Kagome just sits there like she used to. They'll fight like they used and the whole 'confession' will be ruined.

"Uh…no," she answered rudely and ripped her hands out of his grasp, "Did you ever think that, maybe outside of the 5 of the time you're around, I developed a lifestyle. I have friends here and a life outside of you. In fact, I almost forgot about your existence." Kagome paused to let that sink in. She almost faltered and went soft when she saw his pained expression but she couldn't stop. She had to sever romantic connections with him completely. And being mean was the best way. "I thougth that maybe you had even figured out that I wasn't interested in you the same way you liked me. Maybe you had noticed that it was merely platonic between us. Friends nothing more. Am I getting through to you?" Kagome waited for Kouga's nod. "Besides I was never your woman outside of your delusional mind. I had never agreed to marry you or accepted any proposals or anything. You made all of those decisions on your own and was setting yourself up for heartbreak. I don't know how things work in your tribe but where I'm from, women get a say in at least stuff like that." Kagome paused again, this time to catch her breath. "Besides, what about Ayame? How can honestly believe any girl would marry you after finding out about what you did to Ayame?" She cut off Kouga's response, "Oh and Kouga, by the way, I'm in love with someone else. I'll give you one guess. You should know who it is. I mean, I thought you could at least figure that much out."

"Not muttface," Kouga muttered, horrified.

"That's right, it's not muttface," Kagome almost laughed at Kouga's relieved expression, "But In-u-ya-sha. Inuyasha, you know, the one has been protecting me when you're not around. Who has always been by my side. Cared for me, et cetera. You know him."

"You like Inuyasha, you love that guy?" Kouga tried to portray disbelief but it came out disappointed. "But he's only a half breed."

Kagome scrunched up her nose at the term, then added, "In case you hadn't noticed. If we had a kid, dumbass, he'd be one too." Kagome waited for that to sink in. "So, in conclusion Kouga, your little fantasy of life with me is just that. A fantasy. Sorry for wasting your time but you always got Ayame!" Kagome added the last part cheerfully almost returning to her kind self.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha called from a distance.

"Coming!" Kagome answered then turned to Kouga, "Gotta go, my fiancé is waiting for me!" Then she ran off towards Inuyasha, leaving Kouga there to sulk.


There you go, there'll be two or so chapters after this maybe. It's sorta like a oneshot…if you have a way for Kagome to dump the wolf, I wouldn't mind you sharing!
