Broken Heart Healed

AN; I don't own Inuyasha

Chapter 13: Dangerous Interruption

Kagome headed to the tree she had met Inuyasha at knowing Miroku would be there. As she settled next to him they remained quiet. She gently grabbed the hand that had the kazaana and slowly loosened the beads. “Kagome don’t, I haven’t checked if it’s gone or not,” said Miroku worriedly. Kagome looked at Miroku and while they were locked in each others gaze she continued to remove his glove. Once she finished they both looked down and smiled. Naraku was truly dead now. Miroku quickly hugged Kagome out of happiness. She lovingly returned the hug and let a few tears slip from her eyes. “Why are you crying,” asked Miroku worriedly. “I’m so happy you all can live happier lives now.” “Sango finally has Kohaku back, and she’ll soon start her family. Inuyasha finally got revenge for his ruined life. And you… you can now find a woman to start a family with.” Miroku noticed a bit of sadness laced behind her words.
“What about you,” he asked. “What will you do?” “I’m not sure,” she answered sadly. “I might go back to my era and continue my life. I don’t really have anything here.” His heart broke at her words. ‘I should tell her I love her before she leaves forever’ he thought. “Kagome, why don’t you wait a while before deciding,” he suggested. ‘What happened to the confidant, honest, and straight forward person I used to be’ he asked himself. “I will Miroku. I’ll wait until I’m completely sure about what I want to do,” she said smiling. He couldn’t resist any longer. He quickly leaned down and captured her lips in a searing kiss. Kagome quickly melted into him. ‘God I love him’ she thought. Miroku licked her lower lip silently asking for permission to enter. She parted her lips and welcomed the sudden intrusion. Both were so caught up in the kiss neither one noticed a pair of eyes watching them.
Kagome pulled away first trying to regulate her breathing. “Wow. The first kiss was great but this one was…. wow’ thought Kagome. She had never felt so many feelings attack her at once. Miroku was also trying to catch his breath. Now he knew he couldn’t live without her. There was no way anyone would take her from him. Before he could continue their private time they heard a growl come from behind them. Inuyasha quickly leapt towards Miroku intended to strike, if possible to kill him for touching his Kagome. Kagome screamed. In seconds Inuyasha had Miroku pinned by the neck to the same tree he had been bounded to for years. “Inuyasha stop,” cried Kagome. Miroku was slowly losing air. In a quick thought Kagome yelled, “Sit boy,” sending Inuyasha plummeting into the ground.
Kagome ran towards Miroku. She grabbed his hand and ran towards the village with a furious hanyou chasing them. ‘We won’t make it to the village’ thought Kagome worriedly. “Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit,” she screamed behind her and pulled Miroku towards the well. ‘I hope this works’ thought Kagome frantically. She sat on the edge of the well and jumped in hand in hand with Miroku. She opened her eyes and saw the shrine’s roof. “Hurry Miroku, we gotta climb up.” Once the were both safely out of the well Kagome said, “seal the well Miroku.” He understood and quickly chanted a few words that would close the well for a few days. They both sat on the floor catching their breaths. “What… the hell… was Inuyasha trying… to do,” asked Kagome between breaths. “He doesn’t want anyone near you,” explained Miroku after his breath was back to normal. He explained what Inuyasha had told him the day before.
“How dare he,” fumed Kagome. Miroku was glad he wasn’t in Inuyasha’s spot at that moment. He was sure Kagome would sit him into oblivion once they got back. At that moment he realized where they were. He was in Kagome’s time. He grinned at the thought of having Kagome to himself for a few days. ‘This is going to be an interesting trip’ he thought excitedly.
