A/N: I wanted to let you guys know that I have everything planned with the pairings, trust me.

Chapter 11: Lunchtime

It was the next day at school.

"Wow, it sounds like you have some really neat things in America," said Shippo smiling over at Jessica as he picked up a piece of shrimp with his chop sticks and plopped it in his mouth.

"Yeah," Jessica agreed, "you guys have some pretty cool things here too, I kind of like using chopsticks," she laughed as she used the sticks to feed herself.

Shippo laughed also.

"They sure are chummy," Inuyasha commented already finished with his food.

"You always sound like that's a bad thing," Kagome said picking some rice up and shoveling it in. Miroku on the other hand hadn't touched his food, but stared at it in thought.

Kagome looked from Miroku to Inuyasha as she took another bite.

"Come on Miroku snap out of it already," Inuyasha groaned.

Miroku finally looked up, "Oh sorry."

Kagome looked at Inuyasha with an annoyed sort of look before turning back to Miroku, "Is something wrong Miroku?"

"Of course something's wrong with him," Inuyasha interrupted rudely.

"Inuyasha, jeez," Kagome rolled her eyes, "come on Miroku, tell us what's wrong."

Miroku glanced over at the table occupied by Sango, Kouga and Kagura sadly. He noticed she wasn't eating either and like he had been doing, staring blankly at her tray, "Something is wrong with Sango, I don't know what it is and she won't tell me."

Kagome looked at him nervously, she knew exactly what was wrong with her, but she kept her mouth shut about it, "Why do you say that?" she asked innocently.

Miroku sighed and looked at his food again, "Yesterday we were talking after school and she got sick and she's just been really off."

"Maybe it's that time of the month," Inuyasha teased.

Kagome rolled her eyes, "Inuyasha, you don't get sick like that because of that," she groaned, he could be so insensitive about others feelings sometimes, but she still liked him, possibly even loved him.

'Besides,' Kagome thought to herself as an afterthought, 'In Sango's condition, that wouldn't be an issue right now.'

"If you're worried why don't you just talk to her," Inuyasha asked him.

Miroku chuckled a little in a sarcastic way, "I don't think she wants to tell me whatever it is, she must just be getting a bug again, besides…" he sighed, "I don't think she thinks of me as someone she wants to spill her problems on."

Kagome gasped in her mind, 'I thought things were going better for them.'

"She's so…" Kikyo said from her table and I mean HER table. Kikyo stared at Kagome with anger, unable to even finish her malicious thought.

"What does he see in her," she said out loud rhetorically.

The warning bell rang in the lunch room, causing everyone to finish what they were doing and head out. As Inuyasha and Miroku headed out together talking, Kagome spotted Sango alone, apparently her friends had already left, and went over to her.

"Hey," she said with a smile. Sango got up from the table with her uneaten food. Kagome spotted it quickly.

"Sango," she said worriedly, "you have to eat."

"I know and I am, I just didn't feel like eating my lunch," she saw the look Kagome was giving her, "don't worry, I ate…" she sounded a little embarrassed, "a few things out of the vending machine." In truth it was a little more than a few.

"How many things," Kagome asked nosey.

"Uh well, some chips, and some crackers and some candy and some more chips and then another candy," Sango thought about this to make sure she had said everything, "Oh and a few more crackers, I got a little sick then and didn't want to eat the rest," she looked around like a little kid that stole cookies out of the cookie jar.

"No wonder you were sick, ok, let's not over eat, we don't want to have a junkie baby," she laughed a little, but then saw the upset look Sango had.

"Oh I didn't mean anything by it Sango, I was just…nevermind," she kept forgetting that she was messing with a hormonal Sango now.

"That's not the reason I wanted to talk to you anyway, what's going on with you and Miroku?"

"What?" Sango asked shocked by her words.

"I was just talking to him and he's worried about you, what's going on?"

Sango sighed, "I decided to stop talking to him."

"Come again," Kagome said her eyes wide.

"It's just I don't want to hurt him and anyone that I let in like that is going to have to deal with all of this too and I don't want that for him," she looked down saddened by her own words.

"Hey ladies," they heard someone say. They turned to se Kiyoshi standing there with a broad smile.

"Hey Kiyoshi," Kagome replied nicely.

"I just wanted to apologize to Sango about those pills that I took a while back, I would have said something sooner, but I've been real busy, it's just that Kikyo wanted me to get them back, I didn't realize she needed them, but apparently she did…."

Unnoticed by any of them, Kikyo had seen what was going on and watched with a sneer.

"Kikyo, come on," one of her posse said, "we have coach next, if we're not there on time, she might kick us off the squad."

"Go on ahead, I'll be there in a few minutes," Kikyo said, not taking her eyes off the three. The other girls shrugged and left.

"I noticed that you were kind of looking down," Kiyoshi went on, "not that I was watching you or anything, I just glanced over, are you sick again, I can help you with that," he said sweetly with a broad smile.

Sango smiled back, "Oh that's ok, but thank you anyway Kiyoshi."

He nodded, "Well I guess I'll see you ladies later," he bowed politely to them and headed back to Kikyo.

The two girls watched him leave and saw Kikyo in the background.

'So she had ordered him to get the pills back,' Sango thought glaring Kikyo down, 'was she that set on trying to ruin her life?' she knew Kikyo hadn't needed those pills a while back, she did it to spite her.

"What are you doing?" asked Kikyo with venom as he walked up to her.

"Oh I was just asking if Sango was ok?" Kiyoshi answered.

Kikyo glared at Sango from over Kiyoshi's shoulder just in time to see Sango give her a short emotionless glance before leaving with Kagome.

Kikyo looked at Kiyoshi sternly, "What have I told you about that girl, I thought you loved me," she said hoping to guilt him.

"I do, I do," Kiyoshi told her concerned, "I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you."

"Good, you can buy me and my friends drinks after school," she said with a smile.

He nodded, "Ok."

As Kagome and Sango walked down the hall to their next class she heard Sango sniffling.

She looked over at her, "What's wrong?"

To her surprise Sango was crying, "Kiyoshi is so nice to me, why can't people be more like him?"

Kagome chuckled a little, it was certainly nothing she thought to cry over and found it a little funny. She gave her friend a half hug.

Sango got lost in this thought, she knew that if word ever got out that she was pregnant, she would feel her world would change, people wouldn't treat her the same. This was going to be hard, especially if the wrong people found out.

PLEASE READ-A/N: yay, I updated sooner than I thought I would, lol, how'd I do with this chapter and don't worry Inuyasha will know soon. OH! And I have some really cool ideas for future chaps, including a very angry Sango vs. one of the main characters who I'm not going to mention, but it should be obvious, hint it has to do with the ending of this chapter:D

And so there's no confusion I made a list of people who know she's pregnant vs. who don't-

Main people who know are Kagome, Kouga, Kagura, her dad and brother.

All of them know it's Inuyasha except for Kagome.

Main people who don't know are Inuyasha, Miroku, Kikyo, Shippo, Jessica, Kiyoshi, Ayame.

Just in case you wasn't sure.
