Good Morning


Later the next morning Kagome woke up early and her mouth gaped open at the sight before her. She saw Miroku and Sango sleeping in each other's arms. She had know that they had become closer but she would have never imagined that it had gone this far this fast. She had hoped it had but she had no way of actually knowing.

Kagome went silently over to Inu Yasha and slightly shook him. He started to stir, he didn't open his eyes but Kagome knew he was listening because his ears were moving all over the place to strain to listen to her as she spoke. She was speaking so soft that even with his heightened senses of hearing it was still hard to hear her. Kagome silenced him before he could wake the others. She told him that he, Shippo and her were going to go shard hunting and leave Sango and Miroku some alone time.

Inu Yasha opened his eyes and almost fell over at the sight saw before him. Inu Yasha was trying very hard not to let himself burst out laughing. While Inu Yasha was doing that Kagome was searching through her bag for something to write with and some of paper that she had brought to do homework with. She wrote Sango and Miroku a note and placed it on the floor near them with a rock over it so as it would not blow away.

Kagome had cleaned up all her stuff and was ready to leave. She picked up the still sleeping Shippo and was cradling him in her arms. Inu Yasha came and carried them both up and carried them off towards hopefully the next shards direction.

After a while of traveling Kagome suddenly perked up and said "Inu Yasha, I sense a fragment over that a way."

Inu Yasha made a quick turn in the direction that Kagome sensed the shard. That turn woke up Shippo. Inu Yasha placed Kagome and Shippo out of the way as the demon that has the shard came into view. He left them behind some trees and bushes a great distance away from the soon to be battlefield.

Kagome yelled out from a distance, "the shard is in between his eyes"

With that bit of information Inu Yasha would know where his strengths lay. Thinking that the demon only had brains and no bronze, Inu Yasha thought it best to use the windscar and destroy the weak, pathetic excuse for a demon.

"So, you plan to use the windscar?" the demon calmly asked.

"So, I gather you can read minds?" 'How the hell am I supposed to fight a demon that's gonna know my every move?' He thought to himself, 'all I can do is hold him off.'

"That's right half-breed all your efforts are futile, you'll never win against me."

"You know there is one thing I hate more than a demon that's arrogant, and that's a demon that's arrogant and has a big ego." With that last word, Inu Yasha jumped into midair and was going to slice the demon in half with his Tetsusaiga. But the demon being able to read minds sensed his moves before they occurred and he effortlessly made evasive maneuvers to avoid the blow.

Kagome thought to herself on the sidelines 'this is getting us nowhere' and with out thinking any more, and reacting only on pure instinct she pulled out a bow and aimed it straight at the demons head. "Bull's-eye" the purifying arrow landed right between his eyes and the demon dissipated into dust leaving only the tainted jewel shard behind.

Back at camp Miroku started to wake up suddenly aware of the extra weight. He then realized that it was Sango he smiled to himself tightened his grip around her waste and thought to him self, 'it wasn't all just a wonderful dream, and it was real.' His grip on her gradually loosened as he slowly faded off to sleep.

The sun was shining brightly, the sun reached a point where the tree above them was no longer protecting them from the sun. It was so bright and warm also directly in Sango's closed eyes that it instantly woke her up. As soon as Sango's eyes adjusted to the light, she realized that she was in Miroku's lap. Sitting there for a moment deciding what to do she realized that she loved being there in his arms the warmth from his body so inviting.

She slowly pried Miroku's arms off of her and she silently slipped away as not to wake him up. She looked at Miroku sleeping there, "he looks so peaceful," she whispered to herself. She slowly crept up to him and gently pressed her lips against his.

Sango sat by Miroku and just watched him sleep, when he started to wake up she turned her head quickly as a light blush rose to her cheeks, even though she knew that he didn't see her staring.

They were both awake and an awkward silence encircled them both. To break the silence Miroku posed a question "where is Kagome and the others?"

Sango quickly turned her head looking all around the campsite. She hadn't even realized before she was to captivated by the attraction she feels for Miroku. "What's that?" asked Sango pointing to a rock with a white paper under it.

Miroku went over and stated the obvious "it's a note. It says:

Dear Sango and Miroku,

Inu Yasha, Shippo and I all went early morning shard hunting. The two of
you were sound asleep, we would have awaken you, but you both looked so
peaceful. And Inu Yasha and I felt that we will all need to be rested for the up
coming battle with Naraku. We will meet up with you sooner or later, whenever
you are ready. You know where to look for us, see you later.
Love,
Kagome, Inu Yasha & Shippo

When Miroku finished reading Sango looked away, thinking of spending the rest of her life with Miroku.

Meanwhile Miroku looked over at Sango to see her reaction to the thought of spending time with him. But to his dismay her head was turned away and he was unable to see what her expressions were.

Meanwhile Inu Yasha went over to the shard and picked it up and brought it over to Kagome for her to purify.

She took the shard and once it was untainted she put it in a safe place with the other shards until they could be fused.

"How about some breakfast" Sango asked Miroku back at the campsite.

"Sounds great, how soon till we eat?" he calmly said in a way that an annoying husband would ask a wife.

"About twenty minutes, the water has to boil and then I can cook the noodles that Kagome left for us"

Breakfast was ready shortly and they sat down and ate together. Sango started some simple chitchat when she just about finished her noodles. "So, Miroku did you sleep well?"

"Umm huh..." he said through slurping up noodles as he too finished his food, "though I did have the strangest dream..."

Playing dumb Sango asked in their mock conversation, "bout what?"

"I had found the girl of my dreams and was sleeping with her in my arms" with that said Sango got up and lunged over at Miroku wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him all over his face. When she was finished he pushed her back a little looked her in the face and playfully said "Lady Sango, what will the girl of my dreams say if she saw you kissing me like that?" he started laughing at her and she playfully punched him in the shoulder
