All the Pretty Things:
Chapter Five:
"So...? Are you okay now, Sango?" Kagome asked. Sango had, infact, come over to her house hours after their first encounter of the day, and was currently sitting on her bed.
"Yeah... I think so..." She sighed.
"So... What's up? What was wrong, Sango?" She asked.
"Uhhh... You don't want to know." She told her.
"Try me, Sango."
She sat in silence for what seemed like forever. Trying to think of what she could possibly tell Kagome about the scene she had witnessed earlier.
"Sango?" Kagome said again.
"I... I think I love him..." She said quietly.
"Who?! Inuyasha?! You love Inuyasha?!" She asked horrified. It would be very bad if Sango and Kagome both liked the same person.
"No you twit!!!"
"She sighed. "Miroku then... Have you told him? Is that why he was chasing you?" She asked.
"No... I... I thanked him, told him I was sorry, then ran."
"...Okay... Why?"
"I thanked him for everything he's ever done for me... that I hadn't thanked him for..." She said.
"You apologized for...?"
"For everything..." She said simply. "Oh yeah! And for lying. I didn't tell him that though."
"Then you ran..."
Sango nodded. "Then I ran. Straight into Inuyasha... Litterally..."
"You really love him don't you, Sango?"
She nodded.
"You do know he's obsessed with you... Right?" She added.
Sango nodded again. "Kagome... I can't just be an obsession... He'd just be playing with me..."
"You're afraid..." Kagome said. "Aren't you?"
Sango looked down.
"Oh... Sango..." Kagome cooed, wraping her arm around her friend.
"I... I just don't know. I love him... but, I don't know if I could live with him rejecting me. Or... Hurting me... I don't know if I could stand it." Sango put her head on Kagome's shoulder.
"I feel the same way about Inuyasha..." She confided.
They sat in silence for a little while, leaning on each other.
"You make a pretty good pillow." Sango said, breaking the silence all of a sudden.
"I was just about to say the same about you..." Kagome said.
The two girls broke out in laughter.
"Well... I promised Miroku I'd force you to call him over at Inuyasha's house... But would you rather me just call and say you're asleep...?" She asked.
"Please?" Sango said.
Kagome nodded, picking up the phone and dialing Inuyasha's number.
"Hey Inuyasha..."Kagome said then quickly switched it to speaker phone.
"Hi Kagome." He said.
"Miroku wanted me to have Sango talk to him. But... Uhh... She kinda... fell asleep..." Kagome said, Sango stiffled a giggle.
"Oh... He wont be happy.... He really wants to know whats wrong with her... He wont shut up..." Inuyasha told her.
"Yeah... I figured as much..."
"So... What was up with her?" He asked.
"Well..." Think quick, Kagome... She told herself. "She... well... she's been going through some tough shit at home..." Kagome said.
"Yeah... Miroku told me about it... But that can't be all that's bugging her."
"She..." Kagome started.
"Either you don't know... Or you're not going to tell me." Inuyasha said.
"Umm... I honestly don't know... Seriously." Kagome said. Sango almost had to run out of the room because she almost started laughing.
"Yeah... I believe you..." Inuyasha said, half joking.
"Where's Miroku?" She asked. "I'm sure he'll want to talk to me..."
"He's right here." He told Kagome. "Miroku... She wants to talk to you..." He said, passing the phone to him. Sango suddenly felt guilty.
"How's Sango?! Is she oaky?!" He asked instantly.
"Relax... She's fine... I think she just needs time to think about... things..." Or something... she thought.
"Are you sure she's okay?!" He asked again.
"Yes!"
"Let me talk to her!" He ordered .
"She's sleeping..." She told him.
"So! Wake her up! I have to make sure she knows something!"
"What?"
"Just wake her up, Kagome!"
"Fine...but she wont be happy..." Kagome said. Sango frowned. She didn't want to talk to him. Not yet atleast.
Then she smiled. She would get to act again. She hadn't done any acting for a long time... She loved acting, for the most part anyway.
"Sango... Sango? Wake up honey..." Kagome said. She liked acting to and was fairly better at it then Sango.
Sango made some grumbling and protesting noises.
Sango... Get up... Here... Someone's on the phone... for you." Kagome said, handing Sango the phone. Kagome's part was mostly done now... She just had to sit back and see what Sango managed to do.
She made a few more noises and complaints as she received the phone.
"Hello?" She asked, groggily.
"Sango..." Miroku sighed.
"Miroku?"
"Yeah... Are you alright Sango?" He asked.
"Hmmm? Oh. Yeah. Sure." She said, making him think she was nodding back off.
"I... I love you Sango..." He said softly.
"That's nice... Wait! What?!" Had she miss heard him?
Kagome, who had been standing in the center of the room, sat down abruptly on the floor, shocked.
"I... I..." She stuttered.
"Say something! Tell him you love him too!" Kagome told her, temporairily shutting off the speaker phone.
"I..." She started again.
He shushed her. "I just wanted tomake sure you knew that, Sango... Even if you don't love me too..." He said, then quickly passed Inuyasha the phone back.
"Sango?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha could tell by her voice that she was close to tears.
"I hope you're okay Sango... Tell me you wont cry."
"I... can't." Sango said, then gave the phone to Kagome. Then Sango hid her face in the pillows on Kagomes bed so she could cry.
"Alright Inuyasha! I have to go! He made her cry! Hurt him for me!" She said, then hung up the phone.
A/n: Sorry it took so long again..... but yeah.....schools catching up w/ me.... and well yeah... i tried to make this chappie longer to make up for lack of updates... and don't worry... this will end with a happy ending
