Chapter 24

"This is going to be amazing!" Sango squealed, literally dragging Kagome and Naomi behind her. The girls decided they wanted to go to the spa for the weekend and went ahead and reserved a room to do so. However, the moment Miroku found out, he and the others agreed that they didn't want Kagome going anywhere without protection. Before the girls knew it Miroku, Sesshomaru, and InuYasha had suddenly reserved a room at the same spa, right next door.

The girls didn't really mind, because they would still have their girl's weekend. The guys agreed to keep their distance for the most part, just watching to make sure they remained safe. Hitomi knew where Kagome lived. It would be probable that she told Kouga. They couldn't be too safe.

Miroku had to shut down Safe Haven for the weekend, but it didn't matter. He would still pay the girls so they wouldn't lose out on him taking a vacation, and seeing Kagome interlocking her arms with Sango and Naomi was worth it. The three girls had formed a close bond quickly and now they were almost inseparable.

They all checked in and were shown to their rooms. They took a few minutes unpacking and then went to enjoy their first task of the day. A massage. Luckily Kagome was able to request a female masseuse, which made both her and Miroku feel better.

Sango wasn't greedy with her moans, and before long she had everyone thinking she was getting pleasured. InuYasha had to leave to take care of a little problem that wouldn't go away on its own. He wasn't even in the room with the girls, and Sango's moaning was still reaching his ears. His brothers were never going to let him live it down.

After a few minutes, Sango quieted down. "Do you think InuYasha left yet?" She looked to her friends, who were staring at her with wide eyes. Naomi moved her hands frantically, and Kagome snorted, shaking her head and turning to Sango.

"She wants to know why you did all of that to push a guy away that you obviously want." Kagome had started teaching the others sign language, and while they were picking up some movements, fast conversations were still difficult for them.

"Because it's InuYasha. You know as well as I that he would be trying to listen in to our conversation. The guys are just next door, and there is something I've been wanting to talk to you two about for a while." Sango blushed, turning her head so no one could see her cheeks.

Kagome looked at her friend, and then sighed. She grabbed her phone, texting Miroku and asking if InuYasha was still there. When she received his reply, she set her phone back down, and turned her attention back to Sango. "InuYasha left about three moans in. According to Miroku, he was walking very stiffly." Naomi's shoulders shook as she covered her mouth with her hands.

Sango groaned in exasperation but looked back to her two best friends. If she couldn't talk to them, then she had nobody. "I am in love with InuYasha."

Kagome squealed, loud enough that the woman massaging her back shushed her. They heard a knock on the adjoining door, and Kagome rolled her eyes, but smiled tenderly. "I'm okay. Just a little excited." Miroku told her not to get too excited, and she rolled her eyes at his pervertedness.

Naomi asked why Sango didn't want to tell InuYasha, keeping her movements slow so Sango could understand. Sango turned away again; her face saddened. "For so long, the chasing and running around between us has been a game. At first, I really wasn't interested, but that soon started to change. Now, I love him. I worry that if I give in, he will lose interest."

"I don't think InuYasha could ever lose interest in you. Not after chasing you for so long." Kagome rested her chin on her arms, wincing as the woman hit a particularly sore spot. "I've seen the way he looks at you, and I promise you, he loves you as well."

"How can you be sure? No offense Kagome, but you have only been with us for about half a year, and Naomi less than a month." Sango sighed, the sound sad and dejected. Naomi signed something, and Kagome raised her eyebrows in agreement.

"That is true." Kagome turned back to Sango. "There are two people who have known him his entire life. You could always ask them." Kagome threw a thumb over her shoulder, pointing to the boys. Sango blushed deeper, shaking her head frantically.

"I couldn't ask them."

"Yes, you can." Kagome paused for a moment, trying to think. "How about this. You can do it now. We just open the door. You won't be able to see them, and they won't be able to see you. You can talk through the wall"

Sango was hesitant. She wasn't entirely okay with the idea of asking InuYasha's brothers for advice, but she had to admit, Kagome had a good point. After a moment she nodded, and when asked, one of the ladies opened the door for them.

"Sango has something she wants to ask you guys." Kagome encouraged Sango to ask. She would be Sango's support, but Sango would have to do the work.

"Umm. I was wondering…"

"Are you nervous, Sango?" They could all hear the teasing humor in Miroku's voice. "This isn't by chance about your obvious ever-growing feelings for my brother is it?"

"Miroku." Kagome held a warning tone, and they all chuckled at him as he mumbled, "Yes, Dear."

"Does he talk about me? About how he feels for me?" Her voice was soft, and for a moment no one said anything. Those two questions and they were able to hear the fear in her voice. She legitimately was worried about InuYasha not liking her.

"I have not tried to pretend to understand this game that the two of you play." Sesshomaru spoke slowly, as if he was trying to think of how to word it. "You came to Safe Haven a few years ago. Before then, InuYasha was much like Miroku, chasing after anything that moved and was female."

"I choose not to take offense to that." Miroku grumbled with a sigh.

Sesshomaru continued on as if Miroku hadn't spoken. "However, the moment he saw you that stopped. He saw no other woman than you. You were not receptive to his advances and were even cruel at times. You trusted no one, and InuYasha knew this. While he really did desire you, it kept his advances lighthearted. He wanted to give you time, help you to smile, and keep him in the back of your mind at all times. As aggravating as he is, the fool is persistent. He has chased you for years, waiting on the day you finally give in."

Sango didn't say anything, thinking about what Sesshomaru just said. Naomi tapped Kagome's shoulder, getting her attention. When Kagome was looking at her, Naomi smiled and said something that had Kagome coughing. "You like him?"

"What?" Miroku and Sesshomaru couldn't see what was being said, but they heard Kagome's little outburst.

"Nothing. I'm talking to Naomi for a moment." Kagome sat up, asking the women who had been massaging them to leave. This was too good of a chance to pass up.

"Naomi likes someone?" Sesshomaru's voice sounded downright dangerous, and Kagome widened her eyes. She ignored him, turning back to Naomi. Sango jumped up, moving to stand next to Kagome's table. She learned what she needed to about InuYasha and now it was time to focus on her newest friend.

"I think he likes you back." Sango made sure her voice was loud enough to travel to the guys. What they didn't realize was what had started this, was what Naomi had said to Kagome. Naomi said that she thought it would be cool if the three girls all ended up with the brothers, and then admitted to liking Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru didn't know that though, and he was always giving them hell.

"Who is it." They heard a sudden crash and looked up as Miroku yelled. Sesshomaru was forcing himself into the room, Miroku trying to hold him back. They both only wore towels around their waist. A lot more than the women who were as naked as the day they were born. When they had sat up, they discarded the blanket that had been covering the lower half.

"Damn it. If you would have listened, I could have told you they would be naked." Miroku tackled Sesshomaru to the ground, grabbing his foot and trying to drag him back into the other room.

"Release me at once." Sesshomaru was kicking at Miroku, trying to get free. His jerking caused his own towel to come loose, and the girls quickly averted their gaze, seeing more of the arrogant male than they really wanted to.

"Cover yourself up, will you." Miroku let him go, covering his face in exasperation. "You, the king of screwing with people for your own sick enjoyment, should know that they were messing with you."

Sesshomaru didn't say anything, instead looking at Naomi. She was the only one that wasn't covering herself at that point. She was comfortable with her body and felt no need to hide it. It was why she agreed to stripping so easily. She raised her hands, signing the simple gesture of I like you.

Sesshomaru stood, wrapping his towel around himself, and pushing Miroku back into the wall to try and get some of his dignity back. He walked up to Naomi; head held high like he hadn't just barged into the women's massage room in a jealous rage.

Sesshomaru held out his hand to her, eyes intense. "It would honor me greatly if you would allow me to court you."

"Do you have to be so formal? This isn't the feudal era." Miroku was leaning against the door frame, arms crossed. He was laughing silently at his brother, as he always did.

"Shut up, Fool." Sesshomaru didn't look at him but kept his gaze on Naomi. She smiled, and then placed her hand in his, letting him pull her to her feet. He grabbed a robe from the wall and handed it to her. "I think I would like to take a walk in the gardens. Does that sound pleasing to you?" She nodded, ignoring Miroku as he mimicked Sesshomaru behind his back.

The two silently left, heading to the dressing room together with their clothes. Naomi waved at them and then followed behind Sesshomaru eagerly. Miroku watched, more than just a little amused. "That was unexpected."

"I think… I am going to go find InuYasha." Sango didn't give anyone a chance to reply before she grabbed a robe and ran out of the door. They noticed she didn't go to the dressing room to gather her clothing.

"And now it is just the two of us." Miroku stalked towards Kagome, the amusement leaving his face. Pure heat engulfed his eyes, and Kagome smirked. She knew that look well enough and knew exactly what he wanted.

Dropping the blanket that she had covered herself with when Sesshomaru came in, she opened herself for him, letting him squeeze between her legs. His mouth went straight for her neck, and she bit on her lips, trying to keep quiet. "Are sure about this? We could be caught."

She was panting, her breath coming in short gasps. He chuckled darkly, reaching between them to drop his towel. "That is a part of the fun, Love." One quick thrust, and he was buried to the hilt inside of her. Her arousal coated him, making his entrance easy. "Besides, this won't take long."

Ya'll, I'm tired. I feel like I haven't slept in days. It's annoying. It makes it difficult to get anything done in the day. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Thanks to Didithe reaper for editing.
