DEPTHS OF THE DAMNED

...Where Are You?...

Disclaimer: I don't and never will own InuYasha.

A/N: YAY! I'm so happy! I've been eating ramen, so now I'm happy. And just a note for people: InuYasha is only going with Kikyou because she looks a lot like Kagome. But I still think Kikyou is cool, but I guess people are right about Kikyou not getting with InuYasha—she's dead, the poor girl. AH! Don't get mad at me!

When Kikyou had awoken, she was surprised to see that she had been collapsed on the floor and found her two friends roaring with laughter at her. Kikyou flushed and pulled herself up into a chair. Ayame started making kissing noises and Kikyou shot her a piercing glare. Ayame immediately silenced.

"So..." Sango started awkwardly.

Kikyou stared.

"Yes...?" she pressed as Sango blushed nervously.

"Uh...what'd he...say?"

"...Uh...That he, uh, loved me....and stuff..." she murmured embarrassedly.

"InuYasha??! InuYasha said that he loved you?? He's not that loving sort of person!" Ayame burst as Kikyou frowned, completely embarrassed.

"Well...he did, as a matter of fact." Kikyou stated matter-of-factly.

"...Oh..."

"Why are we even talking about this??" Sango suddenly exclaimed.

Kikyou and Ayame froze.

"I mean, our lives aren't meant to criticize about InuYasha and junk! Am I right??" Kikyou nodded her head in agreement.

"Ayame...?"

"Right. Of course...heh, heh...Sorry." Ayame murmured.

"Welp, I'd better get back home—" Kikyou suddenly said.

"I'll drop you off home and Ayame too."

"Thanks,"


Sango drove on her way back home, but decided to stop by Miroku's house. She stopped outside his home and walked up to his door and knocked. It was dark inside. Sango looked at her watch and realized that it was late. He was probably getting in bed... Sango sighed dreamily to herself. Miroku...in bed...

'Wait! EW! I can't think like that! That pervert's really rubbed off on me...Oh, well, it's worth it,' she thought to herself and knocked again.

She half expected to see the lights turn on and he'd come and open the door in his silky purple pajamas, but that never came...

"Where are you, Mir...?" Sango whispered worriedly.

She walked back to the car and drove off home.


Sango unlocked her door and stepped inside, only to find Miroku lying on her couch, staring up with a big grin at her. Sango froze for a minute and couldn't find herself to move at all. She only just stood there until she shrieked a loud, happy, "MIROKU!" and leaped on top of him and started smothering him with hugs and kisses.

"Where the hell were you...?" she whispered as placed a kiss on his lips. "You scared me, not being home this late..."

"That's what I wanted to know...Why were you coming home so late?" Miroku groaned as he kissed her back.

"I was late because I was looking for you..." she moaned.

Kilala sat on the carpet and stared wide-eyed at her mistress lying in an awkward position on her boyfriend. The two-tailed cat mewled and curled herself up on her cat bed and fell asleep in an instant.

"Miroku—we'd—better—stop—before—we—get—too—far..." she managed to say and Miroku nodded as she got off from him.


Sango awoke the next morning early as the sunlight filled her bedroom and she rubbed her eyes drowsily. Saturday... That meant...no school... Sango smiled sleepily and flopped back on her pillow, and was astonished to find that it was alive and that it moved. She relaxed as she realized it was only Miroku.

Wait...

MIROKU WAS HER PILLOW?! AND HE'S IN HER BED WITH HER?! How dare him... Ooh? Maybe this was a good thing...

She fell asleep in his arms and their light snoring filled the room.


Sango awoke again as Kilala nudged her for breakfast. Finally giving up in defeat, Sango arose and followed her pet downstairs.

Kilala ate happily as Sango sat at the kitchen counter, slumped over her cereal, and meowed loudly.

"I'm awake!" she suddenly gasped.

She didn't realize it when Miroku came noiselessly downstairs and took a seat next to her.

He tapped her.

"AAH!" she then glared at him. "Wanna give me a heart attack?"

He shook his head.

"Why would I want to do that..."

"'Cause you just did!"

"...But you'd be dead and on the floor right now..."

She stared at him.

"...Whatever."

Miroku sniggered.

"I love you in the mornings!"

She shot him another death stare and then slumped over her cereal again as she ate through spoonfuls. Kilala mewled and scratched at the door, obviously wanting outside to do "business". Sango sighed and picked up a remote-like thing and pressed the big red button on it. Immediately, the door swung open and the cat dashed outside. Sango pressed the button again and the door closed.

"I really need to get my kitty a kitty door..." Sango sighed.

"Why? You've got that remote there. Why would you need a cat door?" Miroku questioned.

"Because eventually the remote won't work anymore and I'd have to get off my bottom-side and open that door. It's really hard to open, by the way. You have to keep pulling at that God-forsaken doorknob until it opens. Exactly why I have this convenient little thing here."

"...I highly doubt that InuYasha will stay with Kikyou for long. He's gonna realize that he loves Kagome better."

"Where did that come from? I'm talking about...about kitty doors and you suddenly talk about those two—Yeah, they are definitely not going to stay together too long."

All of a sudden, the phone started to ring. Miroku jumped slightly as Sango walked over to the phone and answered it.

"Hello?"

"InuYashadumpedmeandnowIdon'thaveaboyfriendandI'mcryinglikeababyohSangowhata mIgoingtodoIlovehimbuthedumpedmeforyourbestfriendKagomewhoIdon'tevenknowifsh e'saliveornotbuthelovesherbetterthanmeandwe'vebarelygoneoutforevenadayortwo! !!!" (Translation: InuYasha dumped me and now I don't have a boyfriend and I'm crying like a baby—Oh, Sango, what am I going to do? I love him, but he dumped me for your best friend Kagome, who I don't even know if she's alive or not, but he loves her better than me and we've barely gone out for even a day or two!!!! Kagome is alive, everyone just thinks she's dead or was taken somewhere, poor Kagome... T.T)

"Kikyou—Kikyou—Calm down! Please! I'll...I'll help you find someone else—"

"—NO! InuYasha's the only one for me!"

"Kikyou—"

CLICK.

"...That went well." Sango muttered sarcastically. "InuYasha dumped her."

"I knew it."

"We both did, Miroku." She sighed. "I'm not going to hear the end of this. I'm gonna get caught in the middle of this, and you probably will, too, Kikyou and InuYasha won't want to see each other."

"Especially Kikyou."
