"That's it?"

"Yeah, we just talked and I got to know him better…" Kagome smiled softly with a faraway look. "I think I might even… love him now that I know the real him." She blushed deeply.

Sango shook her head. "But that's all?" She screeched, "No kiss? No…nothing?"

"Oh come off it Sango!" Kagome shushed her with a roll of her eyes. "He was a perfect gentleman and quite frankly I don't think I could have done anything more than a hug…I might have fainted!" She giggled nervously as her face heated up.

"Man…You're so…innocent!" She gagged. "How can you be my best friend?"

"Blah Blah." Kagome brushed her off. "I don't care what you say. That was the best date I ever had in my entire life." She smiled warmly at her friends. "He made me believe in myself, gave me hope for the future. For once in my life I'm actually looking forward for the unknown!"

"Awe sweetie, I'm really happy for you." With a genuine smile, Sango came closer to her friend before placing an arm around her shoulders. "So tell me exactly what happened."

"No…!" Kagome blushed even deeper, easing away from her friend with a huge grin on her face.

"Are you serious?" Sango gawked, grabbing Kagome by the back of her shirt and pulling her back closer to her. "Don't you dare hold out on me!"

"I said we talked! That's all – how is that holding out on you?"

"Yeah, but what did you talk about, is the million dollar question."

"It's nothing important really."

"Oh please, that's bull and you know it."

Kagome giggled.

"….Just thinking about it is making me boil up!" She screeched, her hands clasping over her cheeks.

"He's that good with words? Damn, just imagine if he was all actions." Sango winked at her, knowing that a full out blush was to follow – and she wasn't disappointed.

"Shut up Sango!"

"Did you guys at least hug?"

"Like you don't know the answer to that already!" Kagome rolled her orbs with a dry look at Sango. "You're face was practically glued to the window, right next to the front door!"

"Oh I know that!"

They both giggled joyously.

"No matter what happens, tonight will always be special to me…always."

Sango smiled contently, happy that her friend was finally enjoying herself with the guy she was head over heels for.
