Chapter 9: The Sorrow of Heartbreak (Revised)
 
 
 
 
Inuyasha paced outside of the wooden cottage, worriedly glancing at the flap covering the doorway, every now and then.
`Why wasn't she getting better?! It's been a week! How is it that last time she got better in a matter of minutes but now she is getting worse as the days go by?!'
Inuyasha growled in frustration.
`Kagome hasn't come back either…maybe I should go and make sure she's all right.'
Inuyasha's thoughts drifted to the night before when Miroku had told him to leave Kagome alone…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
“She needs some time to get over her heart break…leave her be for a while…” Miroku whispered, his violet eyes shining with unspoken emotions.
“Miroku…are you alright?”
Inuyasha cocked his head trying to get a better view at Miroku's face.
Miroku smirked.
“Do you love her?”
Inuyasha pulled back in surprise, and his face lighting up in embarrassment. He turned his head to the side and crossed his arms, putting up his façade once again.
“HMP! Why should I tell you! Its none of your business what I feel for Sango!” Inuyasha sneered.
Miroku chuckled and then turned his face to him, the moon lighting up his handsome features.
Inuyasha's brows furrowed when he saw the sorrow that filled the monks features.
Miroku's lips slide up into a sad smile, his violet eyes boring into Inuyasha's.
“Inuyasha I don't give a damn about your feelings!” Miroku started.
“All…all I care about is Sango's happiness.” Miroku lowered his eyes to the floor.
“And if that means her being with you then I will not resist, she deserves happiness in her life, after all that she has lost.”
Miroku's eyes snapped back to Inuyasha's, they were ablaze with pent up emotions that the monk refused to flow free.
“But I will not allow her to be with you if your heart still belongs to another, I will not have Sango go through what Kagome had to go through!” He yelled, taking a hold of Inuyasha's kimono and shoving him against the wall.
“Just tell me…do you truly care for her and no one else?” Miroku ground out between clenched teeth.
Inuyasha was about to let out another retort, but stopped when he caught the look in the monk's eyes.
Why does he look so sad… it's like…does he love Sango?
“Miroku…do…do you love her?”
Miroku lowered his head, his glossy bangs shadowed over his eyes.
Inuyasha's breath hitched when the smell of salt arose in the small room. He looked down at Miroku, and gasped when he saw the tears that slowly slide down his tanned cheeks.
`He…He's crying!'
Miroku brought his mouth to Inuyasha's twitching ear and breathed a single sentence.
“It matters not what I feel…but I warn you, Inuyasha, I will hunt you down and kill you with my bare hands if you break her heart like you have Kagome's.”
Miroku then turned and walked out of the hut, disappearing into the inky darkness of the night.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
 
Inuyasha came from his thoughts when he heard the dull thud come from inside the wooden hut. He quickly flew up the stairs and stormed inside.
“What happened?”
Kaede looked up from her place at the small fire, and stood up.
“Shush! Inuyasha she has finally fallen into a dreamless sleep! Look after her for now; I will be back with more medicines later.” Kaede whispered, walking outside the hut.
Inuyasha's gaze followed her until she disappeared into another hut.
He then turned his eyes back to the fragile body laying on the futon in the middle of the room. He went and sat by her, his gaze sweeping over her unguarded features, soaking in every detail of her. Running a gentle finger over the almost bruised looking skin under her closed eyes he felt that she was cool to the touch. His hand cupped her cheek gently and he lowered his face to the crook of her neck, breathing in her scent, and closing his eyes, basking in the pleasant smell that filled his senses.
“Sango I miss you…I miss everything about you…I didn't mean it…none of it…come back to me.” Inuyasha breathed into her ear.
Inuyasha's ears twitched when he heard someone approaching. He reluctantly drew away from her unmoving body and just sat watching her. He didn't move an inch when he heard her come in, nor when she sat down next to him, feeling her eyes bore into him.
“Inuyasha…” Kagome whispered.
“I'm sorry…” he interrupted her.
Kagome looked at him in astonishment, she had come to apologize to him not the other way around.
“I'm sorry that you had to see what you saw…I know how you feel about me…and I think I used to feel the same…but…”
“Used to?” Kagome questioned, lowering her eyes to Sango.
“Used to…I…my heart belongs to her…I realize what I felt for you was the feeling of protectiveness, of finally having someone to care for what I was and not for what I could become…please understand Kagome…I never meant to hurt you and neither did Sango…she even told me that she would give me up for your happiness…”
Kagome's eyes widened in shock.
“She… she would do that for me…but… no I don't want that to happen, you both deserve happiness, even if it means me giving up the one that holds my own heart…” She trailed off, tears leaking from her eyes.
“I…I understand now…I can't always get what I want…and I approve of you two so don't worry about me…okay?”
Kagome let a small smile grace her saddened features. She got to her feet and headed for the door of the small hut.
“I do still love you and I think I always will…but…I also want you to be happy…so please be happy with her…don't let her go…and don't wait…like I did.”
Kagome's eyes slide to Sango again and then back to Inuyasha. Her brown eyes glowed with the heartbreak she felt inside; but before she turned to leave Inuyasha caught a glimpse of happiness spark in their depths.

A/N: Hey you guys! Did you like it? I know this chapter was sad but I wanted to give everybody Miroku and Kagome's view on this and what they are going to do about this new relationship. And since I didn't have the heart to split up the Inu group by having Kagome and Miroku leave I had them accept Inuyasha and Sango's feelings for each other, plus I think that's what they would do in the real show anyways. Well I'll update by next weekend I promise but this week is going to be busy since I have a marching band competition this Saturday and I'm going to be practicing for it this whole week. Wish me luck! See ya!
