If She Only Knew Chapter 1, an inuyasha fanfic

DISCLAIMER: I do not in any way own InuYasha or anything that has to do with InuYasha.

A/N: This is my first attempt at writing a fanfic. I use to do Harry Potter and Gundam Wing RPing, but I never actually wrote a fanfic. I hope that it is not too awful and if there is a chance that you like it, then please feel free to let me know and if you have an idea of something you would like me to write for you, I will try my best.

The song used is 'He Ain't Worth Missing' by Toby Keith. I really don't like much of his music. He is one I would rather not listen to, but I do like this song and because of this song, I had the idea to write this fic. I also have nothing to do with Toby and his music. )

Happy Reading

If She Only Knew

It has been four years since the defeat and death of Naraku. Kagome had went to be with the man who had, in the end, won her heart, Koga. They lived happily as mates: husband and wife. They could not be happier then spending their time taking care of their two children and attempting to build up the small wolf clan.

InuYasha stayed with Kaede. He never took a mate. He was content on protecting the small village and his friends from any youkai that may want to harm them. Yes, Miroku, Sango, Kirara and even Shippo stayed in the village as well.

Miroku and Sango still have not become husband and wife. Sango just felt that she could not trust Miroku fully yet. It is true that she had not seen him asking any of the village girl to 'bare his children', but something was holding her back.

It was a beautiful late summer evening. The crescent moon hung low in the in the cloudless night sky as stars glissened brightly. The sounds of the night creatures brought a peace and calm feeling to the Forest of InuYasha.

If one was to look closely they could see a young couple in a small clearing not too deep into the thick woods. The couple held each other close and they could be seen kissing each other as lovers did.

"You are beautiful, My Love." The soft husky voice of the young man was heavy with lust.

"Miroku!" The girl gasped, as the hands of the young man were not being held to himself.

Unknownst to the young couple, they were not alone. A young woman had decided to go for an evening walk when she heard someone scream. The young woman stopped at the sight before her. She felt a flood of emotions come over her body all at once.

"Mir-Miroku?" The woman's voice was quivering with hurt.

The young couple turned to see who had interrupted they quite evening together. The young man stood and protectively stood in front of his lady friend.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Miroku's voice was strong and held a hint of anger.

The young lady who had been in the safety of the trees slowly stepped out with her head hung low. After she was in the clearing and the moon light was shining on her trembling body, she raised her tear stained face.

"Sa-Sango?" Miroku's voice was now the one that was quivering. You could hear the guilt as he spoke. "Sango, I'm... sorry..."

There was a moment of silence. Not one of the three spoke a word, moved a muscle or took a breath. Until...

"Don't follow me..."

Sango's voice was full of emotion. Miroku was not sure what all the emotions were. What he did know, he did not want to disobey her now. He watched as his beloved Sango ran deeper into the thick forest.

Sango was not sure where she was going, she just knew that she wanted to be away from the man she loved. Yes, she loved Miroku. She might not have trusted him, for good reason, but she loved him. The meaning of her walk was actually so she would be able to think about how she would bring up their marriage. She had finally decided that she was ready to pour all of her heart and soul into loving him and that she was ready to fully trust him.

Sango felt as if her legs were going to give out on her. She closed her eyes and pushed on, trying to run further. Right when she was afraid she was going to have to give up, she ran into something, No... someone...

"Sango?" The deep male voice was just above a whisper, but she could hear the concern in his voice and that alone was enough for her to look up at the man who held her in his arms.

"In-Inu-Yasha!" It was more of a plead then a question of if he was the one who held her.

"Sango, what the hell happened? Was it a yokai?" He looked into her eyes and knew that it was much more than a mere youkai. He knew that Sango was strong and that only one thing could cause her to break down like this. She must have had her heart broken.

"Miroku..." Her voice was soft and he could tell that she was trying to be strong. "...he was with..." Her voice cracked. "...The baka was with another woman!"

InuYasha knew his friend was hurting, but he could not help but feel a little relieved and happy. He held her close as she allowed her tears to fall freely. Sango knew that InuYasha was somewhat insensitive, but she also knew that he was like a brother to her and that he would allow her to cry and would be there for her when she needed him. It seemed that the years have softened him a little.

After about an hour, Sango finally felt that she had cried enough, for now. She looked up at the hanyou that was still holding her close. She shifted a little so that she could look up at his face so that she could talk to him. To her surprise, he had his eyes closed, a small smile on his face and she could have sworn he was sniffing her.

Sango pulled away out of his embrace. "InuYasha..." She pause when their eyes met. "...I don't know what I'm going to do. I was ready to give my all to him!"

InuYasha pinned his ears to the top of his head as her anger rose with her voice.

"I know Sango, but maybe..." The hanyou took a step forward and took her hand into his. "Maybe you should move on."

He's flying high tonight
He's got a brand new lover
Here you come a-runnin'
You're looking for some cover
I know you're sad and lonely
I know you're feeling blue
You miss him so much
Oh let me get to close to you

Sango's eyes grew wide. "I-I'm sorry InuYasha." She pulled away her hand from his and sat down on the ground and watched as the hanyou did the same. "I really don't know what to say..."

Oh, he ain't worth missing
Oh, we should be kissing
Stop all this foolish wishing
He ain't worth missing
I know your head is turning
I know your heart is burning
Girl, you gotta listen
Don't you know he ain't worth missing

"It's alright, Sango." InuYasha hide the hurt in his voice. "I just want you to know that I am here for you. If you want me to kick his ass, just let me know." His gave her a grin and flexed his claws in a playful way.

Sango could not help but give a small smile at his attempts to cheer her up.

You know I'm here to save you
But you ain't through crying yet
Look at your pretty face
All red and soaking wet
I'm gonna try and make him
Just a memory
Come on baby, let's get started
First thing you got to see

"Maybe we should start back to the village. I'm sure the old hag is worried and I don't feel like listening to her complain." InuYasha stood and crossed his arms over his chest.

Sango smiled. This was the InuYasha she knew. For some reason, she felt more comfortable now then she did when he was first trying to comfort her.

"Are you comin' or not?" InuYasha huffed at her in his usual way.

"Yes." Sango stood and followed the hanyou back to the village. She was going to be going through a hard time and she knew that her friend would be there with her. That thought alone gave her strength.

If you need someone to hold you
Someone to ease your pain
Well, I'll be holding steady
Girl when you get ready
I'm gonna show you
Love is a good thing

If only she knew...
