Sango woke up and stretched. She hadn't slept so well in ages. She opened her eyes and looked up at a still sleeping Inuyasha. Confused she looked around. He had covered her in his robe and let her use his lap as a pillow the entire night. She smiled warmly at him. She had never had such comfort before, not since she was a little girl and her parents were still alive.
Thinking of her parents brought back memories of her little brother and her mood darkened. She missed him dearly and wished with all her heart that he would come back to her. Nothing would make her more happy then to bring him back from the clutches of Naraku. She hated the demon with every fiber of her body and soul. Her foot throbbed when she stood up and stared out absently over the lake.
"Sango? What's going on?" Inuyasha asked groggily. "Where are we?"
"At the lake, she said solemnly. He wobbled over to her rubbing his eyes and stretching.
"What's the matter?" He asked looking at her downtrodden face.
"Its nothing." She said hastily shaking off her visions of her brother. She forced a smile. "Thank you for last night." She said. Inuyasha waved it off turning slightly pink. He really was bad a t relationships Sango thought to herself and shook her head. He coughed and changed the subject.
"Why don't we get some breakfast?" He grinned widely at the thought of food. Sango sighed and cracked a smile.
"Alright, let's go." She stared at him a second then without really thinking about what she was doing she leaned over and planted a kiss on his cheek. "Thank you Inuyasha." She pulled away and smiled at him, he was a good friend, and as bright red as his robes. "Let's go."
They walked along until they reached the little hose they had been granted for use temporarily by the people. Inuyasha rummaged through their things and handed Sango a big box of what Kagome had dubbed "Doughnuts" and they sat down for a cozy meal together. When they were done Inuyasha leaned back and looked up at her.
"So what do you want to do today?" He asked.
Sango grinned evilly."I have just the thing."
