InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Dream Life ❯ Coffee and Sugar ( Chapter 2 )

*Sadly I still don't own him. Also, Sango may seem a bit OOC, but I'm trying to imagine her as a modern day Tokyo woman. Seeing as she was running around alone in a leather S&M looking slayers' outfit in the anime, messing up huge demons and never taking anyone's crap (including a certain perverted monk's), I imagine her to be just as bad ass, with a modern attitude on sex, friendships, men in general, etc. Just a bit of an S&M attitude to match her anime outfit. *

 

 

 

“You're late! As usual!” stated Sango as Kagome slid into the booth seat across from her.

 

“Bwahmfg.” Mumbled Kagome as she slammed her head onto the tabletop. A savior in the form of coffee and a waitress that was getting a huge tip later hurried over to the table. She placed the coffee pot and cup in front of the disgruntled girl and slowly backed away. Three cups later Kagome finally turned her red-rimmed eyes onto her best friend.

 

“I am so sorry, but I didn't get much sleep last night. Again.”

 

“Not that it's obvious or anything….” Smirked Sango as she reached over and swiped a sugar packet form the end of the table. Deftly she ripped it open and poured the entire contents into her open mouth. She failed to notice the red eyes rolling at her.

 

“You know you'll rot your teeth out doing that, don't you? I don't get why you don't suck down an entire pot of coffee like a normal person.” Kagome teased.

 

Ignoring her stare as she grabbed another packet, Sango asked, “So why no sleep? Was it your “dream guy” again?”

 

Kagome shrugged and looked guilty as a deep flush ran high on her cheekbones. “Maybe.” She replied non-commitially.

 

“Oh come on Kags! You've been dreaming about the guy since we were what? Four? Maybe earlier? You've never had any trouble talking about the oddness of it all before. Or this much trouble sleeping. Maybe something has changed… hmmmm…” Sango pondered, pouring her third packet of sugar into her mouth.

 

“Okay, okay. They are umm… different… recently. I mean, the guy in the dreams has always been there, every single night right? I see the things that have happened to him, and vice versa. It's like having a best friend that knows you inside and out, even your deepest thoughts and fears, but you don't get to see when you are awake. I never have understood where the dreams come from in the first place, but it has never mattered too much before….”

 

“Yeah I already knew that though!” Sango interrupted, “So why the blush?”

 

“Well I was getting to that before someone interrupted me…” Kagome muttered, turning her blue grey eyes pointedly onto her partner in crime. “It's just that they are different now. Before we would meet at the god tree and talk, but now…” she trailed off, trying to think of the least vulgar way to say that she had been having hot sex with the most beautiful being she had ever seen. Well, seen in her dreams at least.

 

“Now you've started doing all the things a 22 year old should do with the super hot boy of their dreams?” Sango broke in with a lecherous smile.

 

Kagome just blushed even harder as an image of his rough hands skimming over her naked body came to mind,

 

“Uh huh! It's just like I thought. Kags have you ever considered that maybe you need a man in your bed to forget the one in your head?” Sango asked philosophically as she downed her fourth sugar shot.

 

Kagome blushed an even deeper shade of red and shook her head vigorously. “That's not the major problem at all, in these dreams, he is amazing, no comparison, he's what every girl wishes she could have. Just… well umm…we never get to umm... “Finish”.”

 

“Are you serious?” Sango loudly exclaimed, nearly falling out of the booth, “That sounds more like a nightmare than anything… No wonder you aren't sleeping.” She exclaimed, finally starting to see why Kagome wasn't exactly sleeping.

 

“Yeah it's the most frustrating thing I've ever had to deal with, aside from running the shrine on my own. It's just so… arguh!” Huffed the girl, nearly pulling her hair out in frustration.

 

Sango petted her hand comfortingly, “ I know things have been rough on you since your grandfather died, but you know he would want you to be happy. I know you're the only one left in your family to carry on all the shrine traditions, but he would understand if you needed to give it up. You are the last of a line of very powerful mikos, but you are still human. I don't think he would begrudge you a little lovin'…” Sango had been serious up until the last part when she couldn't hold back a blinding grin.

 

Rolling her eyes at her friend, Kagome squeezed her hand. “You always know the perfect things to say to me darling. But you are one to talk! The last of a family line of demon slayers! Running a self-defense dojo, and you still have time to hassle me about my lack of lovin'… you are an amazing woman.”

 

 

“Kags, I love you and all, but save the sweet talk for your target audience. Unless…” Sango teased.

 

Pulling her hand away Kagome chuckled before frowning slightly. “Oh and I forgot one thing…”

 

“You aren't going to ask me to bear your children are you?”

 

“Smart ass!” Kagome threw a packet of sugar at Sango, which she quickly opened and ate, “ Not only impossible, but ewww….”

 

Sango just grinned.

 

“Where on earth did that come from?”

 

“Well there is this guy that's been hanging around the dojo. He owns the spiritual shop next to it. He claims to be a Buddhist Monk, but for a monk his hands end up in some of the most hentai places. That's his main pickup line…” She shrugged and blushed a bit. “Too bad he has to be so handsome…”

 

Kagome arched a brow, “Very interesting…I am going to have to meet this monk that manages to make you blush.”

 

“He's probably still unconscious. Every time he touches me he gets hurt, you think the man would learn his lesson.” Sango grumped,

 

“Or at least learned to ask…” Kagome giggled. She held up her hands in acquiescence as Sango shook her fist in the air.

 

“Yeah yeah. Well, we should go, I have a class in about an hour…” Sango grabbed her bag and tossed some cash on the table before standing with Kagome and heading out the door. “Hey we always have time to stop by a sex shop to help you with your little problem...”

 

“Sango!” Kagome yelled before the shop door clanged behind them as they headed out into the sunshine.
