Look at the Stars
***********************************************
The Sky twinkled with bright stars, magical really. Sitting alone under a tree, Sango closed her eyes and sighed.
They'd had another battle with Naraku today. Another battle against her little brother.
'Kohaku...'
She absently fingered the scar he had given her not long ago. But he wasn't himself when he did that to her... To the rest of the exterminators. He was under a demons control then too...
She would not allow Naraku continue to control him like a puppet. She couldn't! Seeing him like that... it broke her heart.
His eyes, once so full of life, were blank... Dull... And his face that always used to smile was so solemn. That wasn't him, that wasn't her beloved brother. She'd rather see him die then allow him to continuously be used as he was, under the control of that monster.
A Soft hand gently wiping her cheek broke her out of her thoughts. She hadn't realized she had been crying until then.
"Hoshi-sama..." She looked up at him.
"I know what you're going through Sango. We all do..." He said sadly, gazing into her eyes. "I'll- We'll get him back. For you Sango, we'll get him back..."
She gasped softly, trying to hold the tears that threatened to overflow. What he said was so simple, yet it touched her so much. Sure he was a lecher, but he did care... And he showed it in the simplest ways. Sometimes... So simple that she missed it.
Bringing his head down slowly, he kissed her just under her eye, where a single tear had leaked. And just as gently, kissed her forehead. She gasped in shock. She had expected a grope, or something along those lines. But not this, not this gentle and almost loving gesture.
"I'll leave you now," he said with a small bow, and made to turn away.
"Wait! Hoshi-...Miroku..." She grabbed his robe just as he was about turn. "Sit with me...please?"
The look in her eyes was so pleading that he couldn't say no, he didn't want to anyway. There was nothing more he wanted then to just sit under the stars and the moon with her. So, controling a blush, he obliged and sat at her side. "Nice night..." He said softly, carefully wrapping an arm around Sango's waist.
Blushing, she smiled to herself, "Yes.." She whispered, resting her head on his shoulder, "Look at the stars"
