InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Sango's new role ❯ Chapter 4

Part 4

Inuyasha did not hear or smell Sango. He was occupied with entertaining Seiya with a blue bell flower. He dangled the flower over her face, making small woofing sounds. She heard the girl gurgle and giggle and she raised an eyebrow. Inuyasha's red haori was hanging on a nearby log; she could see that it was drying. What happened during the early hours this morning? More confusion was added when she heard Inuyasha began talking to the little girl. She strained her ears, trying to hear what he was talking about. When she heard her name she almost tripped over. Was he talking about her?

Inuyasha had washed up his red fire rat armour and waited for it to dry in the morning sun. He had put Seiya next to him and he was now wrapped up in trying to get her to smile again. He found a blue bell and he nipped the flower and played with it over her face, making her gurgle in delight. He made small woofs, he did not know how he knew them, he just did and they seemed to get the pup to smile even more.

- You like that don't you pup? he said and made another woof.

He was rewarded with a light giggle and he smiled.

- Do you want Sango-chan to be your new mother? I bet she'll be a perfect mother for you pup. She is strong and fierce. Ahh, you should have seen her fight youkais, she was gorgeous.

Seiya blinked with shimmering eyes and made another sound.

- Yeah, I am sure she will train you as well. And she will make a great teacher.

- [gurgle…]

- I'll be here too if you need me, he said and picked up the girl and tipped her nose with his finger. - You do know that you are too adorable when you smile like that…

Inuyasha went silent and turned around when he heard a small gasp. He saw Sango stand behind him, still wearing her sleeping yukata.

- Good morning Sango-chan, he said and fired off a smile, hoping that she had not heard everything he was sharing with the girl, but something told him that she had heard the most.

- I-Inuyasha?

- Are you hungry? I can fix you some food if you like…

Inuyasha got up and walked over to Sango. With a mischievous grin he put two fingers under her chin and pushed up gently, making her close her mouth.

- Unless you want flies as breakfast, said Inuyasha and walked back to the house.

Sango just stood there, not knowing what to think. Inuyasha was playing out the roll as a loving… husband? She turned on the spot and looked at the broad back side of the hanyou as he walked up to the house. "He thinks I am gorgeous when I fight?" The thought made her blush a deep shade of red and she could feel a pool of warmth inside her belly. Her knees began shaking violently and she fell to the ground, on her butt no less. She was confused… no she was more than confused, she had no word for what she was feeling right now.

Inuyasha found a great bear skin and he placed it on the floor in the kitchen and put Seiya on the soft fur. He knew he was scaring the shit out of Sango right now, but he wanted her to know that he could be a good mate and provider. A male that could take care of his family. He heard Sango come into the kitchen and he turned around to look at her.

- Please sit down and I will serve you My Lady, he said and bowed.

- Have you lost your mind Inuyasha?? asked Sango, feeling a wave of fear. - Are you feeling ill? Perhaps you are running a fever?

- Sango-chan, I have not lost my mind, neither am I sick in any way. Please, I just want to take care of you, said Inuyasha serious and walked over to Sango and began pushing her towards the low table and made her sit down on one of the cushions.

Sango looked at him with wide eyes. He was acting so caring… so wonderful. So unlike himself. She was use to hear his scolding and sneering voice. This was not the Inuyasha she knew. Perhaps he was possessed?

Inuyasha put food on the table and settled down next to Sango with Seiya in his lap. He took a piece of bread and chewed it before taking out of his mouth again and gave it to Seiya. She had small teeth so she would be able to eat chewed food he guessed. He saw Sango's gaping mouth and he put a piece of bread and smiled.

- Come on, you must be hungry. Eat now and we will talk later ok?

Sango nodded and swallowed the bread in her mouth. She was a bit wary at first, but after taking a few bites of what he had made she ate a small portion of everything. Inuyasha could actually cook good food, better than her she admitted. After she was done eating he poured some tea into a small china cup, the china was a payment from a wealthy noble man that she helped out not too long ago.

- How long have you been having nightmares Sango-chan? asked Inuyasha with a low voice.

Sango paled and froze, then she put the cup away and then she began shaking. The nightmares, the ones that never gave her any proper sleep. Although she found herself very rested when she woke this morning. He had probably heard her, poor Inuyasha.

- Since the Last Battle, she whispered after a few minutes of silence.

- Are you afraid of being alone Sango?

She nodded, feeling tears pool under her closed eyelids. Kohaku had died protecting her against Naraku's great horde of demons. For a few minutes she had her brother back, only to loose him again. Kagome went back to her time, leaving Sango with out a family again. Everybody left her.

Inuyasha saw the panic flow over her facial structures and it hurt him. He saw that Seiya had fallen asleep in his arms and he laid her on the floor and he made a swift decision and pulled Sango over to sit in his lap. He curled his arms around her, rocking gently back and forth and he purred to get her to calm down.

- They left me, I am alone… she cried silently.

- I am here Sango, I will not leave you.

- But you will when you go that girl you were talking about, said Sango with hurt and looked up into his golden eyes.

Inuyasha smiled and placed a clawed hand on her right cheek and then he rubbed his nose against hers.

- I will not leave you Sango, the girl I was talking about…. were you, he said softly.

- Huh?

He did not say anything else; he just smiled, waiting for her to get the message. And when it did she blushed about ten shades of red and began stuttering. He smile grew wider and he silenced her with his lips.
