Chapter Six: After School...
Kagome got home to find Sango asleep on the couch, the t.v. was on and she had a book open lying across her chest. Kagome picked up the book as lightly as she could and set it on the coffee table, shut the t.v. off, and covered her with a blanket.
She seriously hoped no one called until after Sango woke up. Everyone had said they would call tonight. Even people who didn't know Kagome or Sango.
Kikyo, luckily, wasn't in school that day. If she had been, she would have been very mad at Miroku. They were dating and yet he was fawning over some girl he just met. She would be furious if she found out he had gone out on a date with her too. But Miroku hada plan to get rid of her. He didn't like her that much anyways.
Mom wouldn't get home for several more hours, so Kagome tiptoed up the stairs to her room. She didn't want Sango to be woken up, so she turned the ringer off on the phone down stairs first. She turned her stereo on and turned the volume down low and got out her homework. Her teachers had excused Sango of her home work because of her loss, but Kagome still had hers to do.
Just as she suspected, not ten minutes after she had walked in the door, the phone rang. She answered it almost immeadiatly, just in case the sound traveled downstairs.
"Hello?" She asked.
"Hey Kagome... What's up?" Miroku asked.
"Nothing. Sango fell asleep on the couch watching t.v. and reading a fairy tales book. I covered her up." She told him.
"Oh... So then I guess I can't talk to her..." He said.
"Hey Miroku?"
"Yeah...?"
"Why does Inu Yasha hate me?" She asked. It wasn't as if she cared or anything. She just wanted to know. Right?
"He doesn't. I think he likes you."
"He has a funny way of showing it."
"I don't think he's used to liking people. He told me he used to know Sango and her family. That her used to live near them. They used to hang out together when they were kids."
"Oh... I didn't know that."
"Does Sango like me?" He asked. Hey, he was talking to her best friend... He may as well ask...
"I think so... She said you were cute atleast."
"Cool! I'm thinking about asking her out. Do you think she'll say yes...?"
"Wait... Aren't you going out with Kikyo...?"
"Umm... yeah.. But I'm planning on ending that."
"Cool... I think she'll say yes."
"Cool! Alright... I have to go... Can you tell Sango I called, and that I'll call back later?"
"Sure."
"Thanks. Bye"
"Bye."
Well... that was a considerably normal conversation. Kagome was pretty sure it was the longest conversation she had had with someone from school.
Several other people called asking about Sango. Kagome ended up having full conversations with all of them.
After a few hours, Kagome herself, fell asleep watching the small t.v. that was in her room and lying on her bed. She had probably gotten just as much sleep as Sango had last night. She was really tired.
The sound of the door shutting down stairs woke her up. Mom must be home... THere was another sound down stairs too. The t.v. was on. Sango must be up too...
" I may as well go down stairs..." Kagome mumbled to herself as she crawled out of bed.
"Hey mom... Hey Sango..." She said as she reached the bottom of the stairs and sat on the couch with Sango.
"Hey..." They both said.
"Kagome did we wake you?" Mom asked.
"No" She lied. "I was just watching t.v. upstairs. Sango, do you know how many phone calls you've gotten? A ton... My ear hurts from talking so much."
Sango laughed "Sorry... I'll answer the phone next time it rings..."
Everyone laughed. It didn't feel like anythiong was wrong. Sango sounded like she was all better. She sounded so happy... But was it all just a mask, to hide how truly sad she was? Only time would tell...

Kagome2 -thanks for the idea... i'll use that... if u feel you need more credit... tell me and i'll tell everyone in the next a/n what your idea was...
