Chapter 5- Like a Sister/ Like a Brother

After Miroku had disappeard into the distance, Sango walked back to inuyasha and Kagome. Shippo was still sleeping in the same spot that Sango and him were sleeping at.

"Kagome, are you ok?" she said wile ripping a peace of cloth off of her outfit. She tied it around a bad wound on Kagome's arm. Kagome winced from the pain and jerked her arm a little. Sango looked at her, "sorry…..This will only hurt a little." Sango pulled both ends of the cloth tight.

Kagome bit her bottom lip to keep from screaming. Inuyasha used his kimono to wipe the blood from her lip. "Just hold on for a wile." Kagome opened her eyes to look into worried ones.

She lifted her hand and put in on Inuyashas cheek, "I promise I won't leave you…. I can't do tha…" her hand dropped and landed by her side, on the ground.

Inuyashas eyes widened, "Kagome?" he shook her shoulder gently, trying not to hurt her more. "Kagome!" he shook her a little more violently, "Kagome!"

Sango backed away with tears in her eyes, "She's not….dea…." inuyasha shot an evil glare at her, "No! She's not! She promised she would hang on…" His eyes softened and he looked back down at Kagome, "..Kagome would never brake a promise."

Sango quickly wiped her tears and went back to dressing Kagome's wounds. Inuyasha pulled peaces of his kimono off to help Sango.

Sango quickly shifted her eyes up to inuyasha and then back on Kagome, "Inuyasha?" He didn't look up he just kept pulling off peaces of his kimono and placing it on Kagome's wounds. "Yeah?" he said while pulling another peace of cloth.

"You can't brush off your wounds." Inuyasha looked up in shock. She looked up to see why he stopped. She saw the shock on his face and then spoke with a sly voice, "You may have tried to hide the pain, but I can see right through your little act."

Inuyasha smiled and looked back down at Kagome, "I have to protect Kagome…..and I have to protect you." Sango's eyes widened. Inuyasha looked back up and could see she was confused so he decided to explain.

"Sango next to Kagome you mean the world to me. You're like the little sister I never had."

Sango blushed a little, "really?" inuyasha nodded. Sango thought for a second, "your like the big brother I never had. And now that Kohaku's……" she paused "….gone…you're the only brother..i..have."

Inuyasha had forgotten about Kohaku's death. He gently laid Kagome onto the ground and crawled next to Sango. She was sitting with her head down, and her hands covering her face.

Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Sango and embraced her firmly, "Its ok Sango you don't have to cry anymore I'm here." Sango moved her hands from her face to Inuyashas kimono and clutched it tightly. She cried for about five minutes before inuyasha pulled her away. He wiped the tears from her cheek and gave her a little peck on the cheek.

Sango returned the kiss…..

…..except on the lips!

Inuyashas eye's widened then slowly closed as he deepened the kiss. When they parted they both looked at each other with stars in their eyes.
