Somebody Save Me
Kagome Higurashi always thought that she was in love with the arrogant hanyou, Inuyasha but then she begins to notice things, little things at first, but then it gets worse. It was hard to tell who was hurt worse when they followed them into the woods and saw it with their own eyes. It was hard to tell if they even felt anything at all. Yet when confronted, they denied it. It was forgotten. It was just one time, right? Yet when it happens night after night, someone gets confronted and someone gets hurt. She was just as broken hearted as he was, she thought, and now she has to save him, but at the same time, they have to save each other. Can they do it? MirKag, a little InuSan. Read and Review!
I feel my wings have broken
In your hands
I feel the words unspoken
Inside
When they pull you under
And I would give you any thing you want
You were all I wanted
All my dreams are falling down
Crawling round and round and round
Somebody save me
Let your waters break right through
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it
Just save, save
Come on
I've been waiting for you

Somebody Save Me
Chapter One
The Little Things
"Kaze no Kizu!"
It was a word that Kagome heard quite often come out of the mouth of an arrogant silver haired, golden eyed hanyou. She and the rest of the gang were standing on the side lines as Inuyasha fought with his older half brother, a cold hearted Inu Youkai who cared about nothing except a little human girl named Rin. Kagome looked around at the rest of the group; Shippou was sitting comfortably in her arms, watching the fight with a lack of interest on his youthful features. Miroku was standing on Kagome's left, sutras in hand in case the fight tipped to Sesshomaru's side. Kirara, the fire neko, was standing dutifully in front of the group, transformed into her larger form to protect them from something that Kagome couldn't really place. Sesshomaru only wanted to fight Inuyasha. It was what she had learned over the years. Her chocolate brown eyes moved to Sango, the demon slayer who had become like a sister to her. Sango's eyes were filled with worry and her knuckles were white from gripping her Hiraikotsu so hard. That was odd; Kagome had never seen Sango so worried about Inuyasha before. Kagome knew not to worry about Inuyasha when he fought with Sesshomaru, for some reason, he always won.
A cold icy voice brought Kagome out of her musings.
"We will continue this at another time, hanyou. I have business to attend to."
See, nothing to worry about. Sesshomaru was leaving before he could do any real harm to Inuyasha, like always. Inuyasha stalked over towards them just as Kirara transformed into her smaller self. A soft sigh made Kagome look back towards Sango. When the slayer caught her friend looking, she blushed brightly and looked away. Kagome raised an eyebrow in silent question, but turned back to the hanyou who had just announced his displeasure with a grunt. She watched as his eyes darted towards Sango. He had never looked at Sango like that before. What was going on?
"Come on you stupid wench! We're leaving!" It was Inuyasha's voice, of course. They were already five feet away from her.
"Hey! Wait up! And don't call me a wench Inuyasha!" Kagome stomped after them.
"I'll call you whatever I want!" Inuyasha shouted back at her.
"Ugh! Inuyasha, osuwari!"
The sound of Inuyasha's form hitting the dirt like lead was very pleasing to her ears. She marched on with a smile on her face, but she could've sworn she saw Sango glare at her. It was probably just her eyes playing tricks on her. The rest of the day went on with plenty of bickering between Inuyasha and Kagome and plenty of resounding slaps and screams of "hentai!" directed towards Miroku. All in all, it was a pretty normal day for the group. By sundown, they had set up camp near a hot springs. Kagome was busy making dinner with Shippou, Miroku was meditating by the fire, Inuyasha was gone and Sango was polishing Hiraikotsu.
"Kagome-chan, would you like to come with me to the hot springs?" Sango spoke up from her spot near the fire.
"Iie, Sango-chan, I'm fine," Kagome smiled at her.
In truth, Kagome wanted to speak to Miroku about the things she noticed between Inuyasha and Sango today, to see if he noticed them too. Kagome watched as Sango gathered her bathing things and walked into the forest. Kagome waited a few minutes before she stood and walked over to Miroku. She sat down next to him, her hands in her lap.
"What troubles you, Kagome-sama?" Miroku always knew when something was wrong, and the only one in the group who really understood her.
"Ano, Houshi-sama, did you notice anything strange today between Inuyasha and Sango?" Kagome's voice wavered slightly.
Miroku turned violet eyes on Kagome and her breath caught in her throat. She was always transfixed by those eyes. They were so beautiful. A crease marred his brow and he looked at Kagome with questioning eyes.
"You noticed it to?" It seemed to be more of a statement then a question.
"Hai, I thought that maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me," a frown donned on Kagome's face. She had not expected Miroku to notice it too.
"It has been going on for a few weeks now, whatever it is," Miroku turned to look at the stars, "Every so often they glance at each other and look away or they are overly worried for the other."
Kagome's hands shook slightly, "You don't think that there's anything going on between them, do you, Miroku?"
"I don't think that they would risk breaking the group up. We need them as much as they need us," Miroku said seriously.
"Why would it break the group up okaasan?" Shippou's innocent voice broke the tension.
"It wouldn't silly," Kagome smiled at the young kit, "Miroku is just joking. Aren't you, houshi?"
Miroku smiled and waved it off, "Hai, hai, of course."
Kagome went back to making dinner with Shippou. She knew that Miroku wasn't joking. She knew that if Sango and Inuyasha were having some sort of secret relationship, it would break up the group. The monk's love for Sango was obvious, as was her love for Inuyasha. Those two being together would bring disastrous consequences. Dinner was just finished when Inuyasha walked into the clearing, muttering under his breath; Sango returned minutes later. Kagome looked at Miroku and caught is eye. They were both thinking the same thing.
'Because that's not suspicious at all.'
Dinner that night was rather quiet. During the moments of silence, there was a lot of tension in the air. Thankfully, most of dinner was spent with Inuyasha taunting Shippou and Shippou whining. When dinner was finished, Kagome collected the dishes and walked to the stream to clean them off. It was odd that Sango had come back so soon after Inuyasha. Of course, she shouldn't think anything of it; it was probably just a coincidence. A soft sigh escaped her lips and she handed the dishes to Shippou so he could dry them off.
"Okaasan, is there something wrong?"
"Eh, Shippou-chan?" his voice had brought her out of her thoughts.
"I asked if there was something wrong," he repeated.
"Iie, iie, daijoobu desu," Kagome smiled at him.
"Okay…" his replied sounded very skeptical, Kagome mused.
She giggled at the young fox kit and ruffled his hair. Shippou laughed and helped her gather the dishes and they walked back into the clearing together. Shippou scampered around at Kagome's feet and Kagome only smiled as she watched him. It had been almost three years since she had found Shippou and he was growing up rather fast. Soon she wouldn't even be able to carry him! She giggled at this and Shippou only thought that she was laughing at his antics. In a few short moments, they had walked back into the clearing. Miroku was sitting with his back against a tree, Inuyasha was up in the branches of said tree and Sango was sitting by the fire. She had a far off look in her eyes and a smile was playing on her lips. Kagome wondered what she was thinking about. Immediately her thoughts sprang to Inuyasha, but Sango wouldn't do that to her, right? Kagome shook her head and pulled three sleeping rolls out of her yellow bag. She gave one to Sango, tossed another to Miroku and set the last one down on the ground for herself. Kagome climbed into her sleeping bag and Shippou jumped in with her. The young kit cuddled against her side and fell asleep almost instantly. Kagome watched as one by one, her other three friends fell asleep and then slowing drifted into a fitful slumber.
Sango was anxious, really anxious. It had been going on for two months now. She hated being away from him and she hated the secrecy. Yet, she knew they had to do it for the group. They knew that being together would break up the group, but they didn't care, they were crazy about each other. She couldn't keep her mind off of him most of the time. It felt like hours had passed when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Her eyes fluttered open and she stared into the golden orbs of Inuyasha, her love. His eyes told her to be quiet, that the tension in the air was high tonight and one wrong move could get them busted. Slowly and silently, she lifted herself out of her sleeping bag and she walked off into the forest with Inuyasha. They found a nice secluded spot and Inuyasha sat down against the trunk of the tree. Smiling, Sango sat down between the hanyou's legs and rested her head on his chest.
"They're becoming suspicious, Sango," Inuyasha said quietly.
"I noticed that today too," she sighed softly, "What are we going to do about it?"
"I don't know, or omae."
Sango felt Inuyasha's lips brush the top of her head. She didn't want them to stop what they were doing. She turned around to face him and placed a chaste kiss on his lips before turning serious.
"Inuyasha, watashi o ai shitemasu ka?" she needed to know. She had to know.
He watched her with serious eyes for a moment before he smiled and placed a kiss on her brow, "Hai, or omae, I love you."
A squeal escaped Sango's lips and Inuyasha silenced her with a kiss. It was gentle and loving, just the way Inuyasha always was with her. She couldn't even remember how it started now, but she knew that when he kissed her, everything seemed right and she didn't want what they had between them to end. She didn't want Kagome and Miroku to find out because she didn't want the group to break up, but she wanted them to know that he was hers and she was his. Inuyasha was very different when he was just with Sango then when the others are around. It was another thing that she loved, when they were alone, she got to see Inuyasha as he truly is. She pulled back from Inuyasha reluctantly, she didn't want the kiss to end, and he always made her feel like she was on fire.
"I don't like the way that Kagome treats you," Sango said suddenly.
"What're you talking about?" Inuyasha asked.
"When she 'sits' you. It makes me angry," A delicate frown adorned Sango's lips.
"I usually always deserve it, Sango. You know that," Inuyasha tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
"I know, but it still bothers me," Sango muttered.
"Well, you can take that up with Kagome and see how she'll react to that," Inuyasha smiled, "Now come on, we should probably head back before the others wake up."
Sango nodded and stood, helping Inuyasha to his feet. They walked back into the clearing, hand in hand, and just before they left the cover of the woods, Inuyasha kissed her softly. He murmured a quick 'I love you' before he jumped into the tree. Sango smiled and walked back to her sleeping bag and crawled inside, falling asleep before her head hit the pillow, her dreams all on a certain silver haired hanyou.
