Not Yours

Not Yours

A raven haired beauty crouched at a river bed looking at her reflection in the water, her delicate face held traces of tears,

'I can't believe he said that….after all we've been through' she thought sadly

'Am I not good enough' she suddenly becoming angry with her self punching the water that held her reflection ,causing it to ripple, disrupting her image. She stood as she recalled her argument a specific one out of various others

She had awoken in the middle of the night feeling cold despite being in her sleeping bag , she got out of her sleeping bag and stretched soon realizing that that the hanyou her traveling companion and love was no longer beside her like he was originally .It had taken until her 17 birthday but he finally admitted her feelings for him she could remember .

--

Kagome had been lost for a day after being kidnapped, when Inuyasha found her he easily disposed of the insolent water yokaii then immediately pulled her in his arms ignoring the fact that others were there

"Kagome I'm so glad you're safe" he whispered against her neck cause Kagome to shiver involuntarily

'Inuyasha' she thought sad that she cause him to worry

"I.. "he began pushing her away from him slightly so he could see her face but he was unable to say what he wanted to say, Kagome saw a tears in his eyes and before she knew it Inuyasha pulled her into a kiss, his lips were soft and his kiss held passion…and love? Inuyasha seemed like he wanted to deepen the kiss the clearing of someone's throat broke them apart and the both looked down blushing

After that they officially became lover Inuyasha became more tender than before but that didn't mean they didn't fight…'bickering like an old married couple' Miroku would always say although unlike normal arguments Kagome ended hers with a' sit'

--

She saw a soul carrier traveling overhead, indicating that her incarnation the dead priestess was close by,

'Kikyo' she thought sadly 'Every time she's nearby he has to go running off to her like his life depended on it' how did he expect her to feel when he keeps seeing her when they are suppose to be together now…didn't that mean he chose her, going over to her bag she opened it and took out her ipod noticing that she needed to go home and get more supplies. She had always wanted to confront him on the matter but always held her tongue not knowing what to say and know that it would probably end up in a argument , suddenly a bush close to her started to move and out he walked into the camp stopping momentarily when he saw her .

She looked up at him at his sudden appearance but soon looked away not wanting him to read her emotions…jealousy

"How long have you been up?" he asked silently not wanting to stir the others that slept peacefully she made no attempt to answer his question she just closed her bag and got up and pulled it over her shoulder making a decision

'I'm going home to get some supplies…tell the others that " She then walked off from her campsite angrily for what he did and because he made no attempt to stop but soon she was unexpectedly held by her arm and yanked around to see a fuming hanyou

"What is you problem!" she shouted her anger getting the better of her

"What is your problem!" he yelled back not releasing her arm that he held an iron grip

"Release me now Inuyasha "she demanded in a low a deadly voice showing that it was a warning for what will happen next ,Inuyasha backed down momentarily but that didn't last long with his stubbornness

"Or what?" he got his answer when Kagome yelled sit his purple rosary glowed and he was later slammed into the ground to have a close embrace with his friend the mother earth ,he shock off the effects and got up

"Why the hell did you do that?" he yelled completely unaware of the situation taking a step closer and she took a step back

"Leave me alone Inuyasha "she warned

"I didn't do anything why are you angry with me" he said asked softly taking another step

'You didn't do anything' Kagome thought with disbelief as she hands were curled into a fist , angry at his incompetence Kagome yelled

"You were with Kikyo weren't you, you always run after her like a lost puppy. why don't you go back to you dead priestess!" after the words left her mouth Kagome knew it was a mistake Inuyasha stared at her for what seemed like forever before he spoke

"You're jealous because she's better than you. I don't blame you she is, " he said Kagome felt her heart clench at what he said wanting to reply but found that her throat closed up ,Inuyasha took this opportunity to continue talking

"You were always the second choice…I had to keep on putting up with you're stupid mistakes saving your ass every time if it was Kikyo I wouldn't need to cause she's stronger besides she looks better than you any way !" he said

"I'm not weak! 'Kagome finally shouted only thing she could reply with knowing that in her mind what he said was true but…

"Yes you are and you will always be weak and useless and your beauty will never match up to Kikyo's!" he said angrily

"I'm going home!" She declared turning around and walking away

"Go ahead and stay there forever…I don't care!" he said

'He doesn't care?' Kagome thought before she sped up on her walking before she knew it she was in a full out run.

Now here she was at a river bed thinking over what happen 'Was it because he was angry that made him say that or was it the truth she thought putting the headset in her ears and selecting a song as she took up her bag wanting to find the well as soon as possible.

After all of these times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same

The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you

Kagome walked and every step she took she thought over things wondering if what Inuyasha said was true. Was she that pathetic?

Was she unable to hold her own ,always being a damsel in distress, always in the need of saving?

I woke up kinda early today
And something told me from that moment
It wouldn't be the same
It felt like you were hiding something
But I didn't push it
I didn't complain or say nothin'
I tried to act like I didn't see it
Cause deep down I knew I didn't want to believe it.
'Maybe I was weak but that didn't give him reason to say it like that…if he didn't realize Kikyo had a lot of training for god knows how may years. For a beginner I'm good' Kagome thought

But there it was, it was you and her
You left your sidekick on the nightstand
And I read

"He can have her if he doesn't realize something good when he sees it he's just retarded" Kagome thought out loud "Who needs him!"

Everything you did, and everything you said and
And now I'm standing here looking like damn..
I thought it was you and I
Now all I got to say is why?

After all of these times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same

The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you

Kagome came to a conclusion she was going to train for a year or more if needed when she returns home and prove Inuyasha wrong he will so regret he ever said those words.

I notice now, that when I'm around
You be trying to lock the door
Whispering on the phone
Now wait a minute, since we been in this house
You ain't never did this before
Tell me what's this about?
what's this about?

I tried to sit and say to myself
This here is too good he don't want nothing else
But there it was, it was you and her
You left your credit card receipt inside the beamer babe

Everything you bought her, and everything you spending
Now I'm standing here once again
I thought it was you and I
Now I all I have to say is why?

After all of the times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same

The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you

Finally Kagome came to the Bone Eater's Well ,she stood at the edge ready to jump in but had this strange feeling that eyes were boring at the back of her head she looked over her shoulder …she surveyed the clearing with her eyes but found no one

'Hm…that's odd' she shrugged it off and jumped in

You Lied, You lied, Oh Why?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why?

After all of the times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same

The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you

Kagome quickly climbed out of the well ,after the blue magic that bought her home disappeared by using the ladder, Kagome looked back at the well after expecting Inuyasha to come jumping out but then she quickly removed that thought out of her head and left the shed.

The night air was refreshing even if it came from her time ,Kagome walked to the front her house and hoped that it was still open to her good fortune it was opened ,Kagome tiptoed inside not wanting to wake anyone then slid the door closed afterward ascended the stairs to her room .Kagome dropped her bag on the floor then took out her headset and dropped on her bed feeling exhausted.

"I will be better…better than Kikyo I swear it " Kagome said before falling asleep

--

The predator stalked the opening of the well looking inside he realize that his prey had vanished ,but where? was the question

'It seems this well can be use to teleport….but only the half breed and the human wrench have gone through here' he thought with displeasure .

'The scent of dead demons filled inside the well .This must be the famous Bone Eaters' Well who would've thought it would be in Inuyasha Forest' he turned around at looked at the Goshinboku Tree that stood proudly behind him

'The Tree of Age' he thought he was certain that the this tree and the well were connected what he didn't know was how, but seeing that he was interested he was sure he would figure it out .Turning around he masked his scent and left the area without any traces left behind like a ghost passing through.

--

Inuyasha stood at his spot looked down at the ground finally realizing how stupid he was …he wanted to go see her but decided against it.

'I'll give her he night to cool off' he thought turning back and heading to camp .

He turned to his left sensing Kikyo close by, there he saw her between the trees her souls collection circling around giving her an enchanted but eerie look ,Kikyo turned and walked away with her soul carriers ,Inuyasha hesitated to follow her

'I can't go to Kikyo now' he thought as he saw the sky's dark blue take on a blue hue realizing the morning was approaching so he headed back to camp.
