Chapter 5: The Morning After
Sango woke
up slowly, blinking her blurry eyes to adjust to the sunlight. Her
brown eyes widened slightly as she realized she was staring at the
ceiling in her…ahem…occupied and messy bedroom. She turned her
head to the right cautiously and saw Miroku, still sleeping. Memories
of last night came rushing back and she was blushing so fiercely, she
was certain it could melt ice. She flushed even more in pure
happiness, love, and embarrassment when she remembered how Miroku had
carried her into her room and they spent hours making love. It was
amazing how caring and understanding Miroku was when she told him
that she was sorry for not telling him sooner about the baby. She
told him that she wanted the baby boy with all her heart and he felt
the same. It just made Sango love him even more. It was wonderful to
just get lost in each others feelings and emotions. Yet, it was even
more wonderful knowing that they would get married and start a
family. After all the hard-ships they went through, it was definitely
worth it. Sango was woken from her reverie when Miroku shifted
against her, groaning and mumbling with sleepiness ……and she
swore she felt something unfamiliar against her thigh, and, if
possible, blushed deeper when she realized both of them were still
stark naked and pressed firmly together. Sango, getting control of
her emotions, smiled contently and fondly as she looked at her now
lover's handsome features. He looks so cute when he's sleeping!
Sango thought, Then again….he always looks cute. She was about to
sit up when, instinctively, Miroku's arm went around her to pull
her closer to him. Sango smiled wider and nuzzled his neck with
butterfly kisses. Miroku groaned slightly out of impulse and
sluggishly opened his eyes. He smiled lazily and his features
softened when he saw her.
"Good morning,
bride-to-be.", Miroku said sleepily and yawned.
"Good morning, husband-to-be", Sango replied. Miroku closed
his eyes again and sighed, but opened his eyes and started licking
the outer shell of Sango's ear. Sango giggled first but then
groaned at the sensation.
"Miroku..", she
whispered and pulled away to look him in the eyes. "If you carry on
like that, we'll never get out of bed!" Sango laughed and sat
up.
Miroku sat up and grinned, nodding.
"So
true. But, hey! I got an idea! I'll go make breakfast and serve it
to you in bed, okay?" Miroku asked Sango as he jumped out of bed
and quickly pulled on some boxers. (A.N.: I know there aren't any
boxers in the Feudal Era! Just roll with it, okay?). Sango laughed
and said, "Okay" and got out of bed, too,
pulling on her undergarments given to her by Kagome and a large shirt
of Miroku's since she felt a little uncomfortable nude. Miroku gave
her a chaste kiss and hug before murmuring, "Be right back" in
her ear and disappearing into the kitchen. Sango climbed back in bed,
comfortable, and sighed into the pillow. It still smelled of him and
she pressed her face deeper into the pillow, inhaling it. She
could hear Miroku humming in the kitchen and she was lulled into
sleep again by his masculine voice. Before she completely succumbed
to the desire to rest, she thought, Oh, Miroku, this has been a dream
come true! Please don't ruin it by breaking my heart!
