Chapter 5: The Outcome

Sango felt lips touching hers, soft gentle lips. She slowly opened her eyes and saw none other than Miroku looking down at her with a smile, "Sango, I thought I lost you," he said helping her to sit up.

Sango noticed that they were alone in Kaede's hut, "What happened, I thought you were going to die," she asked relieved beyond words that they both seemed to be alive. "I thought so too, but you kept me going, you and your strength," Sango looked a little confused and Miroku started to explain.

"When you started to fade away I kept remembering what we've been through and I heard voices, our voices," Miroku began. 'So that wasn't just me,' Sango thought as she listened to the rest of what happened.

"My love for you connected with both my energy and the strength that you kept up fighting with, we were both determined to stay together," he said placing a hand on her blushing cheek.

She turned away shyly, "Did you kiss me?" she asked blushing. Miroku smiled hoping she wouldn't get mad at him, "um yeah," he said scratching the back of his head embarrassed.

'Somehow after all the girls I can just go up and flirt with I blush around Sango and I feel like all I want to say suddenly disappears and I come out just stuttering,' Miroku thought confused.

'Miroku kissed me and It felt so nice and so real, what's this feeling coming over me, I figured I would want to slap him for making a move on me, but for some reason I want him to do it again,' Sango thought her cheeks staying a slight shade of pink.

Miroku and Sango turned towards each other slowly and looked into each others eyes. Something struck the couple as if they had connected in a way that had never done before and all other thoughts seemed to drift away.

Miroku sat there calmly, but still had beads of sweat trickling down his face, he was nervous and yet strong.

Sango resembled a meek shy young girl who had never experienced romantic intimacy before in her life. They suddenly were drawn to each other slowly moving towards each other.

They had almost lost each other and the thought of something like that happening to them again brought feelings in them that hibernated within trying to push their way out and finally this was the moment.

Miroku brought his hand up to her pink face gently. Sango felt a tingle run through her body and his touch made her feel very relaxed.

Sango could hardly speak as she whispered, "Thank you for saving me."

"My pleasure, I love you," he said almost touching her lips. "I love you," Sango nervously said as she let him kiss her.

Both of them fell deeper into the passionate kiss unknowing that InuYasha, holding Shippo's eyes and Kagome stood at the entrance watching.

Kagome in awe.

THE END

A/N: well there it is the whole story, I know I could have kept going with it, but I kinda wanted it to end and like I said I was going to make it a one-shot, but I didn't feel good that day so I hope you liked it anyway, please review ;)
