I don't know how long we stayed standing holding each other, but I wish I never have to let him go. Unfortunately, I have to because the discussion that I'm going to have with Inuyasha is an important one. I slowly relax my arms and pull myself apart from him, I can feel strands of his hair brushing against my arms. I can feel his breath in front of me, I lift my functional hand up and I slowly find his cheek, I gently caress his smooth warm face.

"Inuyasha, you are aware of what is going on don't you?" I ask him the question.

I hear him exhale loudly and then he takes my hand on his face into his, the warmth radiates throughout my hand. It feels so soothing.

"I do, listen____________, I don't think you need to go through with this. We can have a fine life with the way you are now, I'll be by your side and I'll help you, I'll be your eyes, I'll be your hands. I can let go of the past and be content with the way that I am now." I hear Inuyasha trying to explain to me.

I thought it would be like this, he doesn't want to lose me, but doesn't he know that he can have Kagome back?

"Inuyasha, that's the thing, I don't want to constantly asking you to be my hands and eyes, I don't want you to always protect me. I want to regain my sight, so that I can do things on my own. I don't want to burden you." I explain back to him.

"You're not burdening me at all____________. In fact, you can burden me all you want, I'll gladly accept it all." He retaliates.

"But that's the thing, I don't want to. Also, in exchange you can have Kagome back." I tell him softly.

I hear Inuyasha slightly gasp.

"Kagome.... ____________ You don't have to do this." He says with solemness in his voice.

As I listen to his words, I can sense of nostalgia and longing. He still misses her. I smile.

"You still miss her don't you? It's fine, with this exchange, we can both regain something that we long for. You with Kagome and me with my sight. It's a win win." I say to him with a strong smile.

I then feel him letting go of my hand and cupping both of my cheeks with the palms of his large warm hands, I open my eyes wide at the suddenness.

"If you go through with this wish, you will regain your sight, and I can have Kagome back into the living....but... is it what you really want?" He asks me with slight desperation in his voice.

My eyes open wider as I hear him ask that. Is it what I really want? Is it?

"What I really want...." I quietly whisper out.

"Are you willing to regain your sight and not have me beside you? Are you ok with me losing all my memories of you after the deal is made? Are you ok with you having the memories of us but I don't? Are you willing to give up our love for your sight?" Inuyasha asks me question after question.

I feel my mind being filled with thoughts and decisions. No Inuyasha, I'm not fine with losing anything that connects us together. But...

"It's not like we won't see each other again right? With Kagome back, you can take her to all the places that you weren't able to, you can be happy with her. The world is a pretty small place, I'm sure we will meet again. We've already met twice in this lifetime, the second time when I couldn't even see. Konohanasakuya said that if you fall in love with me again after all this, you will regain your memories again, of us and our love." I assure him.

"How are you so sure that everything will turn out the way it is now? You're bringing back a living person, and if we happen to fall in love again, what will happen between you, Kagome, and I?" He asks me sounding stressed.
