A new friend
Chapter 6
Here comes a shortie, hope you'll enjoy it...
Should I really tell her that I thought of her as my soul mate,
that she was the only one I could think of as my mate? Was that a good idea?
Would it please her, would it make her run for her very life? I swallowed hard
and I took a firm grip around her waist. I would be the imperfect gentleman if I
did not tell her the truth.
-
Sango, I see
you as my soul mate, I see you as the woman who would be my mate and wife. You
are the one and only woman whom I ever would consider to bare me my children.
There – I have said it. Now it was up to her to respond. I glued
my golden eyes to hers, waiting for her to answer. I had expected tears and
flames, but what I was receiving from her dark eyes was nothing but love and
compassion.
-
Inu-chan, I
am glad.
-
…
-
If you will
have this Sango as your mate I am more than happy to apply for the job.
-
…
-
You have
made me believe that there is something called love out there. The way you have
turned my life upside down this last hours, I can not think of nothing else but
you. I tried to imagine you not being in my life and it made my heart bleed.
Please, let me be a part of your life Inuyasha.
Who ever needed more than that? That was the most beautiful thing
anyone had said to me and I pulled her into a tight embrace, letting all my
emotions pour out from my body. I felt her trembling form and I stroked her back
with my clawed hands, hoping she would calm down. This had been one hell of an
earth shattering experience for the both of us. But I still needed her tell me
her straight answer. I took a deep breathe, filling my lungs with her soothing
scent before I spoke.
-
Sango, are
you willing to take me, Inuyasha, as your mate?
Silence filled the air for a few painful seconds.
-
Yes Inuyasha
– I am willing to be your mate.
I kissed her cheek and nuzzled her neck, trying to hold back the
tears that threatened to fall from my yes.
-
Do you
Inuyasha willingly take me, Sango as your mate? She asked.
-
Yes Sango –
I am willing to be your mate.
She kissed my cheek and nuzzled my neck, showing her that she
cared for me like I cared for her.
I stood up, taking her with me, cradling her small form to me. I
lifted her up bridal style, leaving the blanket and basket behind. Feeding the
ants on the beach could be a good deed. Right now I had better things to take
care of – my mate. I smiled and felt her snuggle into my chest. A small question
began stirring around in my brain – my place or hers? Since I lived in a house
of my own I took the decision that my place would be the best, no neighbors to
disturb while mating.
I had some trouble of getting her into the car; she did not want
to let me go but being the stronger of us two had its purpose I guess. She
pouted but I just smiled.
None of us said anything during the ride back home. I thought
about many things but I could not get the words out of my mouth. I had a lot of
questions – would she like to live with me in my house, should we get a new
place, would I be able to live with her.. Things like that. And wondered – did
she think about the same things too? She startled my trail of thoughts by
asking.
-
Inuyasha,
where are we going?
-
Home, was my
answer.
She leaned towards me and gave me a sweet kiss on my cheek. I
think she liked the way it sounded… Home..
