Chapter 7 things untold
Miroku soon realized though she was going to run, and he grabbed onto her wrist, not willing to let her go yet. " Sango.... I'm..I'm telling the truth."
Sango tried to pull away, but with her drained energy, from so much crying, it was a weak struggle. She decided to listen to what he had to say, before continuing.
" Sango, I..I haven't been able to get you out of my head for most of this journey. Your energy, your spirit, your beauty." He paused looking away from her for a moment, before continuing. " The only reason I continued...to go after other women after I met you...was because...well I knew I couldn't have you. And everytime..I went after a girl.... I always would think of you." at saying this he blushed, and looked back at her, hoping she would look up at him, hoping she would see the message he was trying to give her with his eyes, heart, and soul. "But...but I cant take it anymore! Sango I love you...I really do! I know I should have told you sooner-"
" But you were afraid." Sango whispered, finishing his sentence. " Afraid of denial. Of not being able to...to get what you so badly need."
"Sango.." he uttered.
She looked up at him, looking into his warm violet eyes. " I...I feel the same way Miroku." she said, more confidence evident in her voice now. " I have...for a long time. But..But I thought that..That you wouldn't want a girl like me. That I wasn't good enough. And I wanted to tell you...but I...I was afraid. I couldn't take being denied..So I kept it to myself. Or tried anyway. There was times were..I couldn't look at you without going weak in the knees. I never thought I would get through it! I wanted you so badly." She shut her eyes recalling the feeling. It, at the time, was unbearable. " So badly..that it hurt." she finished softly.
" Sango.." he whispered, pulling her closer to him.
Sango go willingly went closer, not wanting to run any longer. Knowing that he was telling the truth made her regain herself a bit more, from her previous state.
He pulled her close so that her back was against his chest and he had his arm across her stomach. " Sango koshii.." he whispered in her ear. " It wont hurt anymore."

Kagome poured herself and Inuyasha a cup of tea and sat down at the kitchen table. " Darn, I didn't know my mother was going away with my grandfather and brother for a couple days. They didn't even tell me before I left for school this morning." She shrugged and took a sip of her tea only to burn her tongue.
Inuyasha shrugged and blew on his tea before he took a sip, only to fair the same as kagome. 'Dammit'
" Do you want to go watch some TV Inuyasha?" she asked him, knowing that he had never seen TV before.
Inuyasha cocked his head as a dog would when its confused. " T..V?" he asked.
Kagome tried to hold back laughter. " Yes Inuyasha, TV. Com on ill show you. Besides the tea needs to sit for a bit before we can drink it..I left it on for too long." She then stood up and led him into the living room She pointed at the television as she walked by. " That is a Television, or a TV."
"Tele..Vission?" he asked, slightly confused at why something would have two names.
She nodded and sat down on the on the couch, motioning for him to sit next to her.
Inuyasha did so, and looked at her, a confused look still evident on his face. " What do you do now? Its just a..Black square...."
Kagome couldn't help but chuckle at this as she reached for the remote that was laying on the coffee table next to the couch on her side. She pointed it at the screen and pressed the power button, turning the TV on. It happened to be the news that clicked to life on the screen, but it was enough to make Inuyasha jump slightly next to her.
" What the fuck?!" he asked leaning forward slightly and observing the screen from where he was sitting. " How did you do that?!" he asked looking at her as if she held some mystical rare power.
" I used the remote." she exclaimed calmly, still trying hard not to laugh. " It turns on the TV.," she added.
" Reemot?" he asked looking at it and cocking his head again.
" Remote." she corrected.
Inuyasha looked back at the screen as the news caster read about a new building that was being installed in Tokyo. Kagome could tell he was very interested in the TV and she giggled slightly.
" How does it do that?" he asked not taking his eyes from the screen.
" We have a satellite outside, which collects waves just for television and puts them on the screen." she answered. (I think...oh well whatever you get my point right ^^;;;)
Inuyasha nodded, for he seemed to be entranced with the TV. " I've..I've never seen anything like this before..." he murmured, turning to her, and let his body sit all the way back on the couch.
Kagome smiled and nodded. " I thought you would like it." She picked up the remote again, and pushed the TV guide button on the remote. She silently surfed the channels for something good to watch and finding a good movie on one of the channel she pressed enter. " Good it's just starting."
Inuyasha blinked. " What is?"
" The movie." she said as she too sat back, leaning her head on inuyasha's shoulder. She blushed slightly but couldn't help it.
Inuyasha had to try hard not to smile, but couldn't hide his blush. Though feeling daring he let his head lean against hers, his blush growing slightly.
Kagome smiled. ' This is perfect.'
TWO HOURS LATER
Inuyasha was leaning up against the couch were the arm and the back met, kagome snuggled up against his chest and sound asleep. He ran his claws through her thick raven hair and smiled. She was so beautiful and innocent. ' Wow! Where the hell did that come from?' he asked himself. But this time he didn't bother to argue with himself. ' It's true. She is beautiful. And..And I ...I love her.' he silently, and reluctantly admitted to himself. Gods, she drove him crazy sometimes. With her smile, her beauty, her willingness to help others...even if..They are..Jerks. Ugh. I wish that...that she could know...how..How sorry I am for all the times I've acted like such an idiot. And...How much more I love her than I ever loved kikyou. She is so much more then her.... and she always have been. I've been a fool not to see that.' He sighed and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer to him. " I love you Kagome-Chan." he uttered, before closing his eyes, willing to fall asleep with kagome in his arms, knowing he would wake up to find her there as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha slowly opened his eyes, and yawned. He cradled kagome closer to him, trying to enjoy her warmth before she woke up, which would probably be soon.
Kagome knew she was awake. She just didn't want to open her eyes and face it. She wanted to stay like this, in Inuyasha's arms, for as long a possible.
Inuyasha couldn't help but utter to her what he had the night before, before he had fallen asleep. " I love you Kagome-Chan."
Kagome's eyes almost shot open, but she controlled herself, and waited to see what he would do next.
Inuyasha ran his claws through her hair again, smiling lovingly at her. " I will always love you more than I ever loved her, and I swear ill protect you forever." 'Your acting all soft again, and besides its not like she can hear you. She's sleeping. ' He sighed at the thought.
At this kagome couldn't control her any longer. She opened her eyes, snuggling closer to Inuaysha. " I love you to Inuyasha.." she whispered.
A pang of fear seemed to rush through Inuyasha's heart. ' She..she heard me?!'
Miroku soon realized though she was going to run, and he grabbed onto her wrist, not willing to let her go yet. " Sango.... I'm..I'm telling the truth."
Sango tried to pull away, but with her drained energy, from so much crying, it was a weak struggle. She decided to listen to what he had to say, before continuing.
