CHAPTER 3: Is She Okay?
Miroku paced the waiting room as Sango sat biting her fingernails or what was left by now. Sango had told a fake story about camping in the woods and even added a bit with a bear and some other things. Sango was good at telling believable stories. She just hoped Kagome would know not to say anything when she woke up. They knew she'd be doped up really bad and they hoped she would come out ok. A nurse came by and told them that Kagome was in critical condition. She'd lost alot of blood and they feared she might be comatose for a while. The nurse told her and Miroku that they were having issues stabling her because for some reason her body wasn't reacting to the blood transfusion they'd given her.
They sat impatiently waiting for someone to come give them another update. Each dealing with the process in their own ways. Miroku paced mostly as he thought about how it could possibly get worse, and Sango sat with tears shimmering in her eyes but not actually crying. It was a stressful three hours before either of them spoke. Sango had closed up inside of herself driving Miroku nuts, he could barely stand to think about what was going to happen to Kagome. Or worse what their temporary employer would do to them when they didn't make the drop off.
"What the hell is taking them so long?" Miroku shouted running his hands through his hair, he was at his wits end and he knew he didn't have much left to lose. Just then a doctor walked over to Miroku and Sango. "Are you John Smith?" he asked Miroku after looked over a file in his hands.
"Yes, how is she?" he was up on his feet in seconds pacing again as he asked a series of questions ending with, "Is she okay?"
"When can we see here?" Sango had come back to the world and was now standing in front of the doctor looking anxious, and very unstable herself.
"Your sister is stable and you will be able to visit her after we're done here." The doctor was calm, he gave the two a serious look, "Your sister was very lucky." He explained the procedures they'd had to go through to stabalize her the emergency surgery she'd been put through.
After giving it a seconds Sango colapsed with happiness, she fell to the floor with tears falling down her cheeks freely now, silently thanking God, all the blame gone. She blamed herself for the whole thing, they should have moved after the cop got there. Sango opted to stay and that was why Kagome had lost so much blood. But now all was going to be ok.
"Will she be able to come home tonight?" Was Miroku's only concern.
"Yes," The doctor said but with one condition, "But we'll have to watch her for a few hours first. Just standard precedure, to make sure she stays stabalized." He saw the crest fallen faces of the two before him and added, "she should be fine."
Miroku nodded then bent down to help Sango back to her feet, he knew she wouldn't be better until she saw her best friend, "Can we see her now?"
"Yes just follow Janet here and she'll show you to her room." Out of nowhere a nurse appeared and offered them both a reasuring smile that only Miroku returned. They went with Janet into the ER section of the hospital. It was a long walk for such a small hospital and it smelled just like that. It was a terrible smell, like antiseptic and blood; and the combination didn't mix well. It was muggy and stuffy and it was making it hard to breath. Janet showed them to a room on the right three doors from the exit. She opened the door for them and told them that if they needed anything to just push the button on the wall.
Sango rushed in and went to Kagome's side. It was all she could do to keep from crying.
"Hey I don't know about you but I'm ready to leave." Kagome smiled slightly her pain obviously gone and replaced by a goofy grin. Still she winced as she shifted to sit up. "The green walls are making me sick." Sango laughed the only thing she could do, the worry still stuck on her weighing her down like a thousand pounds.
"You have to stay a while longer for observation and then we can go." Miroku smiled, Kagome was going to be fine and for that he was thankful.
Kagome rose purposfully, swung her feet over the side and swayed. Sango moved to her but she held up her hand. "I'll be fine, I want to go now." Kagome sat there for a moment before looking up. "So what's the story?" Kagome smiked as if she did the same thing everyday, "What happened to me this time?"
"We told them that we went camping and we thought there was a bear, so we got out our gun just in case and then it misfired and hit you. That covers the hour wait before we got here and the unmistakable bullet hole." Sango answered having spent her time memorizing her story.
"Haha that's lame!" Kagome laughed but had to stop because of the pain, though it wasn't as harsh as it should have been it was still painful. She felt naked in her thin cotton gown.
"No joke, we also said that I'm your fiancé and this is your sister." Miroku smirked giving her a push back onto her bed, he knew she would't like it but she was going to have to stay for observation, instead he decided to distact her "So I guess that means you said yes to my question this time."
"Which was?" Kagome asked confused, she was unhappy about being back on the gurney she'd been stuck in for the past four hours.
"Will you bear my child?" his smirk was almost instantly gone, but it distracted Kagome enough for her to realize how tired she was. She laid back down and yawned. Miroku smirked but didn't get a chance to dodge Sango's attack.
BAM!
K.O.!
Sango: 1 Miroku: 0
