Now What?

“ I dunno…”



“C’mon Sango! Please!”



Sango paced around in her bedroom. Each time she turned, she would face him and give him an unsure look.



“I promise I’ll call you if something happens. Pleeeese!”



Sango sighed. She walked in front of him, and looked down at him.



He had dark brown hair and eyes. He was about her shoulder height, and had light little freckles on his cheeks. He was slim and white complected.



“Look Kohaku….the second you feel discomfort, or any pain, give me a call. I mean it. I don’t care if it’s in the middle of night, okay?”



He jumped at her response, lept in her arms, and hugged her tightly.



“You’re the best sister ever!”



Sango gently hugged him back and laughed.



“Hey, I’m your ONLY sister!”



He let her go and ran to the kitchen to call his friend. Sango watched him run out of her room and into the kitchen. For being a 13 year old, he sure could act like a 5 year old some times. She sighed and sat on her pink/violet bed. She looked around her room and thought about her lifestyle. She could hear her excited little brother talking on the phone.



‘Life’s okay.’



Her thoughts stopped for a moment when she looked at the time. She had her small digital alarm clock on a nightstand, next to her bed, it read 7:15.



‘Hmm, I have about 4 hours to get ready. What to do…?’



Then, a thought struck her. She could go to Kagome’s, or tell Kagome to come here, and they could get ready together. It sounded high schoolish, but hey, it’s been awhile since they’ve done that. And tonight felt like a good night to do it besides, Kohaku was going to stay with a friend tonight, so they’d have the apartment to themselves. Not that she minded him there, not at all, I mean c’mon, he was the only living relative she had left, AND he was her little brother. She laid down and grabbed her cordless from the night stand. She dialed Kagome’s number and waited. It seemed to ring forever until it finally picked up.



“Hi, I’m not here right now, so please leave your name and number and I’ll get back to you later. Thank you.”



‘Answering machine? What the heck are you doing Kagome? She’s probably asleep.’



Sango giggled lightly and cleared her throat for the upcoming messege.



“KAGOME! WAKE UP!”







Kagome, being startled, jumped from the side of her bed to the floor, falling on her back and her calves still on the bed.



“OOMPH!”



She grunted and struggled to get up. She slid her legs off the bed and was lying flat on her cream colored carpeted floor, all the while hearing Sango giggling and laughing on her answering machine.



“Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! How much do you wanna bet, that you just fell off the bed?!”



Kagome cursed under breath for having programmed the stupid machine for a whole 3 minutes. She got to her knees, grabbed a hold of her blue metallic cordless phone, and pressed the talk button.



“How is it that you know me so well?” Her voice was raspy and a tad deep.



“Oh, I dunno friend! Maybe cuz’ I’ve known you since we were kids?” kagome yawned.



“I guess, care to tell me why you woke me from my beauty sleep?” Sango giggled lightly.



“Sorry, had to do that. Umm, what are you doing right now?”



“Well, I am currently sitting on my knees, on the floor. Why?” sango giggled.



“I told you I was sorry! Anyways, why don’t you come over and get dressed here.”



Kagome grunted as she got up from the floor and laid on her dark blue bed. She turned over so she could lie on her stomach.



“Sure, but….where are we going?” Sango dramatically sighed.



“HELLO! We ARE going out clubbing, remember?”



“We are?”

“YES! We are. So gather your skanky clothes together and get your sorry ass over here.”



“Hey! I DO NOT wear skanky clothes!”



“Oh yeah, I must’ve mistaken you for Inuyasha’s girl friend. Since you two are like, twins.”



“WHAT?! I don’t look like her!”



“HA! That’s a laugh!”



“Hey, I don’t look like her okay.”



“Oh stop. Besides, if we get drunk like we did 2 wks ago, Inuyasha might mistake you for his girlfriend. Wouldn’t that be something?!”



“NO, it would not. Stop daydreaming, what time do you want me over?”



“Hmm….how about now?” Kagome sighed.



“Okay. Just let me get comfy and I’ll bring my stuff.”



“Aw, just like old times, remember?”



“Yup. I’ll see you in a bit.”



“See you here!”



“Bye.”



Kagome hung up and put her face on the bed. She rolled over to her back and thought for a moment.



‘Hmm…what IF he would mistake me for his girl?’



Kagome immediately sat up and slapped her forehead.



‘NO! I will not think like that! If he wanted me, he had plenty of chances!’



She slouched her back and sighed.



“Yeah, plenty of chances.”



Kagome got up, stretched, and went to her closet to get her things ready.



“Hmm….what to where…?”

Sango rummaged through her closet to find something to wear.



“What’s Kagome gonna wear?”



After she got what she wanted, she laid them out on her bed. She looked around her room and saw that she made a mess. She got everything together in a big bundle, and stuffed it in her closet, quickly shutting the door.



“Well, there goes that mess!”



She decided to go the kitchen to make some tea. Knowing her and Kagome, they would probably want to chit chat a little before they got ready.



Kagome got her outfit and hung it on a hanger. She got her keys and her purse and walked to her front door. She looked around her apartment. Everything seemed right in place. She walked out and locked her door. She didn’t bother taking any hair products or makeup, knowing Sango, the girl had everything. She walked to the elevator and pushed button ‘1’. She patiently waited till the elevator reached its destination. She got little butterflies in her stomach whenever the elevator made an accidental stop.



‘Kids, always pushing buttons.’



The elevator opened its doors and Kagome walked out. She walked the small lobby towards the entrance and out to her car, which was parked not to far away. She opened the passenger door and put the seat back so she could lay her clothes on it. She closed the door and went to the other side to get in. Once inside, she turned on her car and pushed ‘Lock’.



‘You can never be too careful.’



Sango had just finished taking a quick shower. She wrapped herself in her light pink robe. For a girl who can defend herself, she certainly liked pink a lot. She sat down on her couch, bending one knee and letting the other hang to the floor. She had a small coffee table in front, which had 2 cups of tea.



‘Where is she?’



In middle of her thoughts, her door bell rang. She sprung up from her couch and skipped to the door.



“Hey!”



“Hey!”



They greeted each other like school girls and gathered on the couch.



They were sipping on their tea and conversing about how the night would be spent and their day at work.



“Anyways, so who gave you a ride today?”



“Inuyasha.”



“Inuyasha? Wow, never thought he’d be one for favors. Then again….”



“Then again what?”



“Nothing.”



“Sango.”



“What?”



“Sango!”



“What! All I’m saying is that he’s always been, I dunno, protective of you or some thing.”



Kagome placed her cup down on the coffee table and got comfortable.



“Whatever.” Sango did the same.



“You know its true.”



“Yeah, uh huh.”



“Don’t play games with me! I can see right through him! Its like, if he had the chance, he’d ask you to go out or some thing.”



Kagome completely forgot about her little emotion secret and opened her mouth.



“Then why hasn’t he done it yet?! It’s not like I’m ALWAYS taken.”



Sango blinked in cofusment. Which was immediately smoothed with a sly smile and devilish eyes.



“Sooo, you have a thing for Inuyasha.”



Kagome gulped and looked frantically at anything, anything but Sango’s gaze.



“Oh please. Don’t even start your little assumptions. There’s nothing betwe-“



Sango dramatically fell back on the arm of the couch, with her arm on her forehead.



“How could you! I thought I was your best friend! See how you treat me!” Kagome giggled.



“Stop with the dramatic act! You know I tell you everything!”



Sango came back up and pounced on Kagome.



“Everything but this!”



Kagome struggled to get out of her grasp.



“WHAT?! I tell you everything! I’m not you! I don’t go off telling other people!”



“Like who?!”



Kagome managed to grab a hold of Sango’s shoulders and pushed right. They stumbled off the couch and Kagome now stood over Sango, gripping her arms.



“Everytime I tell you something, I end up hearing it from Miroku!” Sango giggled.



“C’mon! It’s just Miroku!”



Sango quickly gasped and rolled the side, knocking the table over.



“OWW! HEY!”



“Unless, you don’t want Miroku to find out!”



“Of course I don’t want him to find out! If I did, I would tell him!”



“No! The only reason you don’t want him to find out is cuz THEN he’ll tell Inuyasha!”



Kagome rolled over and pinned Sango.



“BULL! What do I care if he finds out?! I don’t care! I DON’T CARE!!”



“Alright, we can deal with lesbianism, but you two?”



“I thought Sango would’ve been the dominant one…?”



The two girls quickly looked towards the front the door and noticed that Inuyasha and Miroku were standing in the middle of the door way. Of course the girls’ position didn’t look right. Kagome was in sweat pants, and a tank top, pinning Sango by the shoulders. Sango was wearing nothing but a bath robe, being pinned by Kagome, she had her knee up, causing a long and revealing slit going to her upper thigh. Sango cleared her throat.



“Guys c’mon, it’s not what it looks like.” Inuyasha smirked.



“Sure it’s not.” Kagome blushed at Inuyasha’s smirk and got off Sango, helping her up in the process.



“Look guys, you’re a tad bit EARLY, so if you don’t mind..”



Miroku walked next to Sango and placed his arm around her.



“You know Sango, if you give a me chance, I could turn you over the OTHER side.”



Sango elbowed his ribs and walked towards her bedroom.



“Like I said, you guys are WAY to early, so if you don’t mind, us ladies have to get ready. C’mon Kagome.”



Inuyasha lightly chuckled. “Right, is that what they call it now, ‘getting ready’?”



Kagome shot him a scowful look and walked towards Sango’s bedroom. The bedroom door opened and Sango’s head peered out.



“Oh yeah, hey guys, help yourselves to anything, okay?” Both guys replied in unison.



“Okay mommy!” Sango gave them a deathly glare, mumbling to herself before shutting the door.



“Jackasses…”



Both guys laughed and sat on the couch.



“Now what?”



“I dunno.”



“Hey Sango! You got cable?” they heard a dim voice come from the bedroom. “Yes!”



Inuyasha looked for the remote while Miroku went to the kitchen and looked for some munchies. He found some Doritos, dip, and some soda cans. He brought them to the coffee table, which Inuyasha put back, and sat down. Inuyasha grabbed the remote and started flipping through. Miroku drank his soda and asked Inuyasha.



“Think they’ll take long?” Inuyasha looked at the clock on the wall.



“Yup.”



“Hmm…” Miroku got more soda and another bag of chips that he had found.



“Alright, now we can wait.”
