Chapter 4

next morning i woke up alone inthe hut with the sun beaming in my face, i looked around wondering where eveybody was and what time it was. i stretched my arms over my head and got up and walked outside the hut to see Sango sitting by a pond petting Kirara, Miroku sitting by a tree meditating, Shippo playing with the village children and Inuyasha no where in sight. i walked over to Sango and sat next to her and saw that she wasn't in a good mood and ihad a good feeling why and i looked at Miroku to see him sporting a red hand print on his face i just shook my head.

" he'll never learn huh?" i chuckled

"hmp" Sango replied

"hey Sango where's Inuyasha?" I asked

"he's at the sacred tree, just take the path we took and turn left and you can't miss it" Sango said still petting Kirara

"ok thanks Sango cya" and I was off to locate Inuyasha at the sacred tree who was just lounging there on a tree branch with his eyes closed and his arms crossed over his chest looking adorable by the time i reach the sacred tree.

"hey there dog-boy care for some company" I called up

"sure why not" he answered without opening his eyes and I jumped up and sat next to him.

"so what you doing up here by yourself?" I asked swinging my legs underneath me

"thinking"

"about what?"

"about us"

"what about us?"

"that we've been apart for too damn long" he said opening his eyes and looking at me.

"it has been too long hasn't it" I said with a bit of sadness in my voice.

" I always wondered what happened to you after my mother died, what did happen?"

"my mother died the night of the new moon, she was stabbed inthe heart twice right in front of me by her father and i could do nothing about it; but hold her and cry and she had told me before she took her last breath that she loved me and always will and then her father came after me and tried to kill me; but i ran from him and my only home"
I said as I wiped my face of moisture not realizing that I was crying.

"i'm sorry you had to see that and that your mothered died" he said as he gathered me in his arms and held me to him as i wrapped my arms around him and we stayed like that for hours just breathing in each other's comfort.
