Alright, this fanfic contains all the main Inu-Yasha characters, but isn't in the same world: there is no magic well, everyone is human, and they all attend highschool. It's a romance fic centered around Miroku and Sango. Please have fun reading! :) (Oh btw, this is my first IY fic ever)

Red String

Day 1: Moving In

Finally, Sango's family had moved to Tokyo, and with a new house and a new life, she couldn't wait to settle in. It was going to be a nice change from the run-down city they used to live at. Plus, the school in her new city was new and probably filled with smart kids, unlike her last, annoying school. It was going to be great.

Kinda sad that I don't have any friends or family to miss though... Sango thought with a flick of depression as she pulled one of the boxes out of the moving van. Oh well... I'll make friends to miss here. She thought cheerfully and started toward the house.

"Sango!" Kohaku called from the truck, "Your box of belongings is going to be by the dinning set, okay? Get it when you're done bringing that other box in." Her kid brother finished with a smile, making Sango smile back.

It's the best thing that's ever happened to me!

The day hadn't been easy, loading so many things from the van to the house, was just as hard as packing things into the van from the old house. No, that was harder... Going through all that trash and old stuff in the basement... Ugghh...

She couldn't stop smiling though, the new house was big and clean, and in a great neighborhood. She couldn't wait to ride her bike to school and through the city, making friends, learning more than she could ever learn at her old school.

She jumped at the feel of fur against her leg, but then relaxed; it was only Kilala. She picked up her special and unusual cat.

"Hey, there, Kilala! Do you like the new house as much as I do?" She played, and Kilala started to purr, "Of course you do!" Sango laughed and caressed behind Kilala's ears.

"Sango, we need your help!" Sango's father called, his tone just as happy as hers, "Alright, coming!" She called back and set Kilala down.

After moving everything into its place, eating take-out for dinner, and doing some cleaning in her new and improved bedroom, Sango showered off and slipped into a nice, hot bath.

"Ahh... This feels so good!" She hummed and leaned back, "I can't wait for school... Make friends... Pick up my brother when he's done with school... It'll be perfect... That's how life's supposed to be..."

It was soon eleven o' clock and Sango could hear her parents just getting into their bedroom, their voices jumpy and spunky. She knew Kohaku was fast asleep and had been since 10 o' clock-boy did she envy him. She couldn't even keep her eyes closed for a full minute. There was so much to think about. Over and over and over again she replayed school and her first day there and all the people she'd meet. How she would introduce herself and choose her friends wisely. She had made by mistakes before from not carefully choosing whom to hang out with and many times before she accidentally got mixed up with the wrong people and it cost her.

For the first time in my life my parents couldn't trust me... They thought I was a druggy for a while... But I wasn't... It was a nasty rumor started by nasty people who I thought were my friends... at least that won't happen here... No... It won't...
