Chapter 9
Disclaimer: Can I stop doing this, would anyone care? Would anyone ever
notice? I don't own Inu-yasha so deal with it.
A/N: okay, I have a 'secret' to share. I am not very motivated to write this fic, and it's not completely because of the lack of reviews, it is also partly because I don't know how to write this kind of fic. So why did I start it? Because I had the inspiration and although I know how I want it to end I'm afraid my inspiration is slowly leaving me and I hope that no one minds that this is going to end up being a short fic. Anyway, thank you for reviewing, I'm not currently logged on to the net so I can't check my mail and see who has reviewed. Love you all lots.
Inu-yasha approached Sango at lunch. "Sango?"
"What do you want Inu-yasha?" She said angrily, "Have you decided that you haven't tortured me enough? What do you want now?"
"I came to apologize, Sango." (yes I know that this is a bit OOC but it's for a good cause and I have my reasons) "I just wanted to say that I'm sorry and I was wrong to have thought that you would ever willingly hurt Miroku."
Sango's jaw literally dropped. She sat there stunned for an instant. "Wait, you came to do what? Oh My God! Are you feeling alright."
"Damn it, Sango, I'm not an insensitive prig and I can admit when I'm wrong."
Laughing Sango said, "I'm sorry, Inu-yasha. It's just that I'm not used to hearing you apologize or saying nice things to me, or Kagome."
"Point taken." But the moment of levity was fleeting. "Are you going to tell Miroku?"
"I was planning on it." She looked earnestly up at Inu-yasha, "but I think I may need some help. I don't know how to tell him."
"Hmmm. that is a problem. You should definitely show him the letter."
"But how? I can't just walk up and shove the letter in his face! What do I tell him? And when?"
"Listen, how about after school today? If you can figure out the rest I can't get him wherever."
"Thank you, Inu-yasha. If you can get him to the tall oak tree by the bleachers at around 2:45, that'll give me some time to prepare."
"I can do that. Oh, and here's the letter." He handed her the folded missive that had caused so many problems.
"Oh, Inu-yasha? Would you mind staying near this afternoon? Not where you are noticeable, but just where I can call on you if I need help."
Inu-yasha smiled. "I would be happy to do that. See ya this afternoon."
"See ya." And Inu-yasha turned and walked away, and for the first time in a long time he walked off grinning.
As Sango watched him go Kagome plopped down beside her. "So," she began, "What was that about? I've never seen Inu-yasha so happy."
Sango pulled her gaze away from Inu-yasha, "You know, I don't think I have either, now that you mention it. But nothing really happened. He's going to do me a favor."
"Oh?" Kagome asked almost icily.
"He's going to help me tell Miroku what happened, you know, about the letter and stuff."
"Oh, that's good!" Kagome said with great relief.
Hearing the relief in her friend's voice Sango realized something she should have realized long ago. "You like him, don't you! Why didn't you tell me?"
"What are you talking about? Who could like him? He's an arrogant, pig-headed jerk. I wouldn't go out with him if he begged me."
"Of course not dearest, I wouldn't think that you would so demean yourself as to do that." Sango said with a twinkle in her eye.
"Well, I wouldn't, I would rather die first!"
"Me thinks that the lady doth protest too much."
Kagome slapped her friend playfully on the shoulder, "You demon! Oh, I guess I do like him. I just can't help it."
"Of course you can't. I understand. What do you think it is about him though?"
"It's his eyes," she said blushing, "and his ears. They're just so cute! And, I don't know, about a million other little things." She sighed. "But don't you dare tell anyone!"
"I would never tell your secrets! That you would even think such a thing hurts me."
"Oh, you little beast!" Kagome shrieked.
A/N: and that's the end of this chapter. Ha, and now I've got two new chapters up even before the New Year. Yeah I'm so proud of myself. Now I must leave you with this, because you have more than enough information, and this just may ruin my plans for this story, as this is an unexpected turn of events, I hadn't planned it until it was written. Anyways, please Review I enjoy hearing what you have to say and I'm only to happy to get criticism. It's the only way I'll get any better.
