(A/N: Hey, hey. I know it's been a while since I've updated. I don't
know how long this chapter will be, but it will be the last. This is the
final chapter, then the story ends.)
Later that day, we were all at Kaede's hut. Miroku had finally fallen asleep with extreme tiredness. I stood up, and walked over to where he was lying, and knelt down. I brushed the hair from his eyes. "Miroku, I never thought I would find out what you truly thought. Especially with all the other girls."
Miroku rustled in his sleep. "Sango, I love you, come back. Don't leave me here alone," he murmured.
I stood up, and stepped back in shock. 'Did he hear me?' I thought. Sleep and tiredness finally took over me. I didn't know that a person who wasn't really there could sleep, but I did anyways. Through out the night, I woke up to Miroku mumbling things about me or the way he feels. "He really has feelings for me, doesn't he."
As the sun rose the next morning, I was the first to get up. I didn't pay attention to much around me, or to where I was at the time. I went over and sat by Miroku again. Soon enough, he got up. His eyes slit open, just a little. As soon as he saw above him, which was where I was, his eyes shot open, and he jumped up. "SANGO!!!!!!!! You're awake. Don't you need to rest?"
"No, I'll be fine. Wait, how can you see me?" I asked
"Because you are awake, and walking around. Why did you ask anyways."
"Never mind about that, but you can see me, right?"
"Yes, in flesh and blood. You are kind of acting strange. I think you are feeling side effects of hitting your head."
"I'm going to go get fruit for breakfast. I'll be back," I said.
"Okay, I'll tell the others when they awaken."
I left for my favorite hill, where I can sit and watch the sun rise above the trees. I wasn't really getting fruit. I arrived in no time, and sat at the top, with Kirara sitting next to me. The sun was rising, and almost fully above the horizon, when Miroku came walking up the hill.
"You mind explaining to me what all that in the hut was about?" he said.
"Sure. When I had fallen off Kirara, I hit my head on a rock, right.?"
"Correct."
"Well, I had an out of body experience. No one could hear or see me. Sometimes you could sense me, but you thought nothing of it because my body was always near, and so was my spirit. I heard everything you, Kagome, Inuyasha, and Shippo had said, saw what you all had done."
"So, you know what I really feel?"
"Yes, I heard you say that you missed me. And the time when you were walking to the river, and passes a group of women, and you did nothing. Also, last night. I went to kneel beside you, and you started mumbling. You said that you loved me and didn't want me to leave you."
"So now that you know the truth, there is no reason to deny what I feel. I love you Sango, and I want to be with you for the rest of my life, no matter what. I will never betray you, or leave you alone."
"Miroku, I love you too. I never thought I would hear you say that to me. I will always love you, and I promise to never leave you, if you don't leave me."
"Of course. Oh, and, will you bear my children?"
"YES, yes, yes, yes!!!! I will!!!!!!! I've been waiting for you to ask me that forever!!!"
"The only reason why I didn't ask you that, is because you are the one person I truly love, and I didn't know what you thought."
Suddenly, he grabbed my arms, and pulled me into a tight embrace, then his lips lock with mine. I was so stunned, I couldn't move. I didn't want to move. I loved where I was, I loved him. And I always will.
