"Sango!" Kagome cried as she ran towards Sango. "Sango! I have great news!" Kagome hugged Sango panting trying to catch her breath after running such a long ways.

Inuyasha had died a while ago and so did Miroku. A long, lasting, love between those two but their lives were meant to be cut short. But that had nothing to do with the great news. Kagome had run so far to see Sango because after Inuyasha died she became a messenger, along with a strong protector. With out Inuyasha around Kagome learned to protect her self.

"What is the news you bring Kagome?" Sango asked with happiness on her face.

"The news I bring you is from…" She stopped for a moment a little jealous but happy for Sango.

"From who?" Sango asked without hesitation.

"Kikiyou…" Her voice trailed off into a little pit of sadness.

Sango dropped Kagome from the hug and let her fall to her ass. "You mean?" She started off with dreamy eyes looking toward the night sky. "Dose this mean my sweet Kikiyou of mystery loves me? Does she really want to be with me?" Sango gave a soft sigh.

"Sango I need to talk to you though. I know this is really a bad time but I need to confess something I been meaning to confess ever since I fell through the Bone Eater's well. Ever since I saw your beau…" Kagome stopped her self just handing over Kikiyou's letter.

"Ah thank you Kagome. You really do make a good messenger." Sango smiled as she looked at the folded piece of paper, so nicely creased. She walked away paying no mind to Kagome's attempt at a confession.

Kagome a little depressed walked to a near by temple to pray to Buddha. Clapping her hands together, letting quiet a few strands of hair fall into her face as she bowed her head forward. "Buddha please give me courage…. Or the right timing to tell Sango I love her."

Sango was off somewhere near a river humming to herself and finally open the note. Her eyes filled with joy, along with her heart, as she read the note. "Sango, I want you to meet me two days from now at sunset." She started to read aloud the letter. "Bring a basket of food for us to enjoy the view with. I want admit to something you've been craving to hear but not on paper. I want to moment to be special. From: Kikiyou."

Kagome raised her head afterwards. She was deep in thought now, about how the relationship between Kikiyou and Sango would turn out. "I'm happy for them... I really am… But I can't help but feel jealous! Can I?" She ran her hands over the railing of the steps to the temple as she left behind the beautifully carved piece of bark behind in the temple. It was marked up with the symbol of a heart and then a drawing of Sango and Kagome kissing. She had made this long ago, before she had left the era of her time. She had left for the soul purpose of her desire being strong to be with Sango.

Two days went by. Sango was deep in thought about Kikiyou. But at the moment Kikiyou and Kagome, for the first time, shared something in common, the thought of Sango. All of them were lost in the deepest thoughts they have all felt for about love, nothing more.

Sango was getting ready. She placed her hair into a lovely bun with the hair hanging down. The bun was only tied once and her bangs hung in her face. "Kikiyou…. Are you really going to confess what I've been craving to hear?" She said softly to herself as she sat in front of the brass, reflecting mirror. She pressed the letter against her chest and smiled. Sango had placed the food together earlier, around midday. She placed on her finest Kimono.

Kikiyou was a bit nervous. She had never claimed to love anyone before. Her heart sank to her stomach making her sick with butterflies. "Ah Sango. I wish for enough strength to tell you I love you." Her body grew cold for a moment. "But something is telling me not to. Then again I'm listening to my heart not my instincts." Kikiyou told herself firmly as she walked out of the hut, heading towards the meeting spot to where Kikiyou and Sango had first met.

Sango had left running with the basket of food in her arms to the place where they had met. "Kikyou!" She shouted happily as she stumbled a few times but kept a steady pace of running.

A steep but strong valley of dark, green grass could be seen as it came into view. A calm flowing river down below looked tiny for they were up so high. A few trees dotted the upper hills of the valley. It was truly a beautiful place to be.

Her face turned red and her eyes looked they other way. "Sango…you're so beautiful." Claimed Kikiyou.

Stopping dead in her tracks Sango put down the basket on the flat ground. "You just know how to make my heart sing." Sango walked up close to Kikiyou, her heart started racing as she gripped the paper tight in her fingers. "What was it that you wanted to tell me?"

She came out strong and bluntly. Her face turned sharply toward Sango. "I love you!" Kikiyou realized how strongly she had come on.

They both sat down, somewhat in shock and trying to let what the words that have had been said by Kikiyou's lips. They didn't look at each other. They just blushed holding their knees close to their chests.

"I love you too." Sango whispered as she shuffled her body closer to Kikyou and rested her head on her shoulder.

From the sight of bushes about 10 feet away Kagome was teary eyed and in shock as well. Her heart throbbed with pain, as she heard what she was never meant to. "I can't believe this bullshit! Sango. Please…" She stayed and watched the two closely. Her soul couldn't take anymore of the truth. After all… what isn't supposed to be seen should stay that way.

They both had set out the food on the blanket and rested on it, holding each other's hands as they lay down. The food lay in between them as they smiled at each other. They only seemed to nibble on the food every once in a while. The main thing that was on their minds was love, not something to eat. Instead of enjoying the view they enjoyed each other.

"Sango, do you mind if I look at your body from underneath that kimono?" Kikiyou had come on strongly again. "But once you start off strong there is no turning back." She thought to her self.

"I don't know. We have had only started to date. I don't want to ruin the night." Sango protested against her new lover's wish, for shyness had swept over her and she felt self-conscious.

Kikiyou gave a tender grin. "Come on. No one is around. Don't be so shy…" She tried to convince Sango. Her eyes focused on Sago's face.

She blushed heavily as she slowly undid her bun and shook her hair loose. Kikiyou's jaw dropped slightly as she watched; shocked that she actually was going to go through with it. Sango's wavy hair fell onto her shoulders and draped there. Then her kimono was slowly undone as she stood up, it slowly slid down her shoulders. But then ripped off quickly as Sango became more comfortable in what she was doing.

"Kikiyou… It's your turn." Sango gave a devilish grin as she slowly but seductively walked her naked body over to Kikiyou.

Kikiyou's face turned a bit. She must have absorbed Sango's shyness, for she was starting to feel shy her self. Her eyes then turned to look at the beautiful girl towering over her. Sango sat down next to her and pinned Kikiyou down on the blanket. "Sango… Are you sure you're up for this?" Kikiyou asked a little hesitant. Sango nodded and helped Kikiyou remove the articles of clothing.

"Very sure." Sango ran her hand down to Kikiyou's chest and fondled her breast.

The two had sweaty, yet passionate sex together. They both panted holding one another close together. A pleased grin showed on Kikiyou's face. And Sango just gave a little blush as she kissed Kikiyou.

"Enjoyed your self?"

"Yes actually I did." Sango giggled.

They turned their heads and body's towards the sky. Then sun was just setting and Kagome came out of the bushes. "I can't believe you two would let your selves sink this low. Sango… You knew all along I had feelings for you. But you just tossed me aside when Kikiyou came around. Fuck! Kikiyou how could you have taken her from me? She is the reason why I left my Era, just so I could be with her. I gave up my family to be with her!" Kagome fell to her knees and started to sob quietly. She held her arms around her waist. Through her soft sobs she mumbled. "Kikiyou I wish you were dead!" Then she raised her head giving Kikiyou a sharp, yet an angry look. "I fucking wish you were dead!" She hollered as she pulled out her bows and arrows aiming for Kikiyou's heart.

Both Sango and Kikiyou looked at her in shock. Knowing she spoke the truth. But Kikiyou tried to speak but couldn't for fear the arrow may hit her if she said the wrong things. Though she couldn't just sit there letting Kagome threaten Sango and her like this.

As tears rumbled down Kagome's faces, the bow shook as she tried to keep steady on her target. "Do you have a heart Kikiyou? Huh? Do you? Well let us see!" Kagome hollered again as she let go of the arrow.
