Chapter 6: No More Scheming, Promise?

Knock Knock

"Hello Kagome."

"Hello Miaka."

"What brings you here?"

"I came to see Sango. Is she home?"

"Yes, she's upstairs with a friend."

"Huh?" Kagome walked up the stairs. 'I bet it's Kuranosuke.'

"Kouga, quit it." Sango squealed.

"Nope!" Kagome sighed. "Hello Sango."

"Oh hey Kag. What brings you here?"

"I, uh, needed someone to talk to. Hojo and I broke up."

"Oh Kagome. Wait, you two were dating?" Sango began to run to her friend but stopped.

"Uh huh."

"Right, I knew that. The e-mail, this afternoon, DUH!" Sango punished herself. She hugged Kagome.

"Ya, okay. Well I am going to go. So, uh Sango, I'll see you later, you too Kagome." Kouga left.

"What was he doing here?" Kagome poked.

"No reason, we were just bored." Sango smiled.

"Oh, okay."

"Yea."

"Hey, what's this?"

"Pictures from camping. The first time we met. Also, the first time Yuka made you kiss Inuyasha." Sango laughed.

"Oh yea, I remember that. That year Miroku moved here." Kagome giggled.

"So true, he was quite the little perve for being 8." Sango sighed.

"Still is." The girls laughed histerically.

"Sango, truth or dare." Kagome asked the very question that had ended their friendship only a month ago.

'It must be true, you can never be angry with true friends. Truth."

"Do you still like Miroku?" Kagome was still flipping through photos.

"Well yes, sort of." Sango really couldn't lie.

"Oh wow, that is SO AWESOME!" Kagome screeched. "We have got to tell him."

"No,no, please don't. I don't want him to know, not until I'm sure we're okay." Sango pleaded holding Kagome's shoulders.

"Okay, I won't tell."

"Thank you. Okay your turn."

"Truth."

"Do you still like Miroku and if not, who?''

"Oh brother. I don't like him anymore, we're just friends, and I told you, I think I like Inuyasha."

"Okay."

"Yes, I should get going. I'll see you tomorrow. We can walk to school."

"Sounds good. See ya." Sango sighed as she plunked down on her bed. "That was interesting."

Ring ring

"Hello, Sango speaking."

"Hello Sango. It's Kuranosuke."

"Oh, hello."

"I was wondering. It's only 9 o'clock, would you like to go out for a slush or something?"

"Huh, sure, like, like a date?"

"A date, yes." Even though he couldn't see her, he knew she was blushing.

"Umm. I guess, that would be nice." Sango finally said.

"Yes, should I come pick you up?"

"If you want, I'll give you my address."

Sang explained where she lived and now she was sitting in the front room waiting for him. He finally came.

"Be back before 11 Sango." Miaka called as she left with Kuranosuke.

"Of course." Sango was still blushing.

"So Sango, tell me again. Why were you so surprised that Kagome was talking to you again?" Kuranosuke asked after they have left her driveway.

"I sort of meddled with her love life, and screwed it up." Sango blushed.

"Aw I see. You wouldn't do it again, would you?"

"No, no way! That was just way too painful." Sango hung her head.

"I bet." Kuranosuke was laughing.

"What is so funny?"

"Nothing. I needed a way for you to look up."

"Huh? Why would you want me to look up?"

"So I could look into your eyes."

Sango turned around blushing a bright pink. "That's so, romantic."

"No." He spun her around, grabbed her hand and continued walking. "It's just me."

"Hello Sango."

"Bonjour Kagome." Kagome had just shown up at Sango's before school, so they could go together.

"Shall we go."

"We shall go." The girls giggled and talk all the way to their highschool.

"Hello Sango." Kuranosuke welcomed her at her locker.

"Hello Kuran, look, umm, can we keep our dating life a secret, just for now?" Sango pleaded.

"What ever for?"

"Well for reasons, please?"

"I guess. I will see you in class Miss Sango."

"Bye."

"What was with the 'Miss Sango' thing?" Miroku said from behind her. She jumped like a foot.

'I really wish people would stop doing that.'

"Hello, you okay?"

"Yea, just a little irritated."

"That would be why?"

"No reason." Sango smiled.

"Alright. So look, I was wonder what you were doing on Friday night?"

"Working." Sango said quickly.

"Oh, alright."

Buzz

"Well there's the buzzer, got to run. Catch you later Miroku." Sango sped down the hall. 'Omg, was he asking me out? This is not good.'

(Lunchtime)

"Hey Sango. Come sit." Kagome patted the seat next to her at the table. Sango sat happily. Kuranosuke sat beside her, Inuyasha sat beside Kagome and Miroku sat across from Sango.

"So what's been going on?" Miroku asked.

"Nothing much." Kagome sighed.

"Anyone see Scary Movie 2 yet?" Inuyasha asked.

Nods were exchanged around the table.

"What did you people do last night?" Inuyasha was looking directly at Sango.

"Yes, what did you do?" Miroku was now doing the same.

"What?" Sango snapped.

"Don't pretend as if you didn't do anything. I saw you and Kuranosuke last night, hodling hands. You walked right past my house." Inuyasha smiled mischievously.

'So much for secrecy!" Sango sighed.

"Really?" Kagome clapped her hands.

"Okay yes." Sango looked at Kuranosuke desperately. "He asked me out last night."

"Yay!" Kagome almost fell off her chair all because she hugged Sango. "See, I knew you liked him."

"Who likes who?" Kouga asked as he and Ayame walked by.

"Sango and Kuranosuke." Kagome cheered.

"Figured so much." Kouga grinned then left.

"Are those two dating again?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yes." Sango answered.

"How do you know?" Kagome asked.

"That's why he came over last night, to tell me the good news." Sango explained.

"I see." Miroku said, he nodded at Kagome.

"Yes, well uh-" Sango started.

"Sango?" Kagome cut her off.

"Yea?" Sango looked at her.

"We would like to have you promise something."

"What?"

"Promise us, there will be no more scheming."

Sango looked over at Kuranosuke and laughed.

"What, what's so funny?"

"Nothing, I promise." Sango said receiving a hug from Kagome.

"Good."
