Author's Note: This chapter is very short and that is why I decided to upload it. I hope you enjoy this little plot-advancement ;p. Always remember that reviews make the world go round! ;D Not beta'd by the way.

The next two weeks involved Sango ignoring Miroku like the plague. It was fairly obvious, though she piled on excuse after excuse. Even her family had given her unbelieving looks each time she hung up the phone.
"Kagome I think I have mono or something" she admitted to her cousin the day after they'd seen the movie. Kagome had looked supremely confused at the announcement.
"What makes you say that?" she asked.
"Well, my stomach keeps turning and my pulse is all out of whack," Sango had answered thinking about it. "I also get really warm, but it's just sometimes.
"Sango, that's not mono. It doesn't sound like your sick at all. If anything I'd say it's a severe case of the butterflies."
"Huh?"
"That's what happened when InuYasha asked me out. You're in love." Kagome smiled and hugged the unsuspecting girl. "Who's the lucky guy?"
"No, that can't be it!" Sango stuttered. She shook her head. Kagome let her go and shrugged.
"I'm just teling you from my own experience. It sounds similar, but maybe not." She smiled, patting her cousin's hand and returning to the stove to make omeletes.
At that point Sango had frozen and thought about it. It was weird, yet the more it ran through her mind the more obvious things had become. Every time she had felt ill Miroku had been in close contact with her. Could she be in love with Miroku?
It was absurd. He was a jerk, with his constant teasing and a huge flirt who hit on women constantly. He had been her best friend forever. Then again, he was hardworking and honest. He always accomplished what he set out to do. He was confident and kind. He always looked out for her and helped her out when she needed it. He noticed things about her that no-one else ever did. He had been her friend forever.
Her stomach did that little tumbling thing that it had been up to lately, making it fairly obvious where it stood on the matter. She cursed.
She was in love with Miroku.
Since then she'd tried to keep her distance to try to sort things out. It didn't help that every time he called, his voice made her heart skip a beat. She didn't know what to do, so all she could do was keep herself busy with work and hpe that she'd get over it.
