Summary: While Inuyasha's away, Kagome doesn't like being alone.
Kagome was spending another evening alone.
She ought be used to it by now; after all, Miroku and Inuyasha made a good living off of traveling to nearby villages and banishing mischievous youkai.
Though, she admitted to herself that she missed her husband. Of course, Kagome always looked forward to Inuyasha’s return, and to say they made up for lost time was an understatement.
None of that changed the fact that he was gone now, and she missed him terribly. She also didn’t like being in the house by herself.
Kagome jumped at a light tap on her thin door. “Kagome?” Sango called to her.
“Ah, come in!” she answered, quickly letting her friend inside. She was grateful for the company, and having Sango come visit her was the much needed balm to soothe her lonely thoughts.
“I was hoping to invite you over to stay with us tonight,” Sango said as she hovered in the doorway, and Kagome could feel Sango’s gaze on her face, sensing her loneliness. Kagome’s spirit brightened at the thought. “There’s no sense in being by yourself. Plus, I guarantee you won’t feel lonely with three other children.”
Kagome nodded, following Sango out the door. Her mood only soared as Sango’s children raced excitedly toward her, yelling “Aunt Kagome!” and hugging her legs. Sango turned, watching them happily.
“You should escape this empty house and stay over every night the boys are out,” Sango suggested with a chuckle.
“I’d like that,” she replied cheerfully, and Kagome only wished, that after all this time, they had thought of this idea sooner.
