He looked at me. His eyes were certain. Hopeless pain washed through me.

"Kagome you need to go to your own era, your own world. We weren't supposed to be together. I'm going to use The Sacred Jewel to bring my Kikyou back."

I flinched at the way he used the words "my Kikyou."

"I have to do this. Hogo will be perfect for you. Miroku and Sango went their separate ways well now it's time for us. I love you Kagome"

How could he say after everything we went through together that we weren't suppose to be together? I wanted to say something anything to change his mind. But I knew I had already lost. I had lost a long time ago. He always was going to take care of his Kikyou.

"Kagome?" He was staring at me with concern. I realized that I was looking at him with tears streaming down my cheeks.

"Forgive me," he whispered. He almost hugged me but he let me push him away. I ran to the well.

Somehow, I always knew this was going to happen. Why? Why did I stay with him? I was going home. I was going to leave this place forever. I jumped into the well and closed my eyes waiting for the trip to be over. Something was wrong I hit dirt to soon. Frozen with dread, I began to freak out. What the heck happened? Do you mean I was stuck with Inuyasha and Kikyou for . . . forever?

I heard Inuyasha slowly walking over to the well. Crap! I looked up at him right when he looked down at me. He looked as surprised as I felt. I could feel myself blushing.

Looking up at his worried golden eyes I said stupidly "Guess I'm staying longer." Inuyasha held out his hand as if I would take it as if I wanted his help. I avoided his hand and pulled myself up. He just stood there for a while staring at me and me back at him.

"Kagome I…"

I cut him off. "I'm going to Lady Kaedes to tell her the news you better go revive your Kikyo."

I turned on my heel and walked away without realizing I was going the wrong way. I hate myself so much. Why couldn't I just get over it? Sliding down on a tree, I began to cried. Why out of all the times out had the well stop working? Why did this happen to me? I punched the ground and ended up with a broken knuckle.

"Nice one Kagome," I exclaimed to the air.

What was wrong with me I never acted like this? I looked out at the dark night. That's when I first released that I was completely lost. I was trying to figure out where the hell I was when I heard a noise. Took out my bow I set an arrow ready to strike. Since, we had destroyed Naraku most demons had fled in fear so usually most of them didn't show up. Every once in a while, a retarded demon would go slinking a long trying to obtain the jewel. I shot an arrow out to see if would scare it away. I usually have perfect aim but since I killed my knuckle I was a little off.

"Hey."

I turned around with a new arrow already ready to be shot when I saw his face. For a split second I was thinking about shooting him in the face right then but I lowered my bow and turned away.

"I thought you were going to Kaedes."

Silence.

"Come on Kagome."

I knew my only option was to follow. Inuyasha walked in front of me. I was scared that he would ask me to ride on his back. Since he's a half demon and all he could go faster than any human and he usually wasn't that patient. He never did ask me though. We walked through the dark forest the only sound I could hear was the sound of our footsteps. I started to realize I hadn't eaten anything today and my knuckle was throbbing. Inuyasha was slightly ahead of me and I caught myself staring at his silver hair glowing in the moon light. I saw an outline of a sphere in his pocket. The Sacred Jewel. Making a split second decision, I stopped. He turned around looking confused.

"Kagome?"

"Inuyasha," I said with a shaky voice. "Can you… can you give me something that I've wanted for a long time."

He looked back at me a little confused but nodded. I walked up to him, stood on my tip toes and kissed him. At first he pulled back surprised but then I could feel his arms wrapping around my body. I laced my fingers into his hair. I could feel his tongue tracing my lips. I shivered. I lost myself in the kiss until I remembered the plan.

I wrapped my arms around him so I could reach his back pocket. Slipping my fingers into it I grabbed the Scared Jewel. Inuyasha didn't realize what I was doing. I pulled away a new set of tears already running down my cheeks.

"I'm sorry Inuyasha." I said holding up the Jewel. Then whispering as I backed away, "I love you."

I ran away, I knew that I didn't have much time tell he recovered from his shock. I felt terrible, horrible as I ran up the stairs to the sacred shrine. I knew what I was doing was selfish but I couldn't live see them together every day. I pulled out some sacred beads that I had obtained from Kades house. I set up a barrier that I knew wasn't going to last very long.

"KAGOME," Inuyasha screamed. He was just below the stairs.

I wasn't sure what he thought I was about to do, heck I wasn't even quite sure what I was going to do. I scrambled over to Kikyou's grave. Only a few ashes still remained.

"O Scared Jewel. Give some of my soul to Kikyou to help her rise. Erase my memory; take me back to my own time."

At first nothing happened I looked over and saw that my barrier had already been broken and Inuyasha was running over to me. Then all the sudden I couldn't breathe. It felt as if someone had just stepped on my lungs pushing out my last breath. I would have fallen but Inuyasha caught me.

"Kagome what have you done," he whispered with tears in his eyes. I wanted to see his face but black spots were blearing my vision.

"Kagome, what did you do? What happened? Answer me," he said worriedly. I wanted to answer but I couldn't find my voice. I was going to pass out. The black spots filled my vision. Inuyasha's voice seemed far away unreal more like a dream. Then everything was gone.
