Miko and Monk

Chapter 3

"Mama. Grandpa. Souta. Anyone home?" as Kagome came into the kitchen.

"I'm in here" called out her mama.

Kagome pulled Miroku into the living room where her mom was at "Mama I'm back!" as she let go of his hand and gave her mom a hug.

"Oh my! What happened to you? Are you hurt? Let me look at you." as her mama noticed the blood stains and torn skirt.

"I think I'm ok. I have a headache. Um...mama, this is Miroku. He came with me thru the well and….we don't remember what happened." as Kagome motioned over to the young man next to her gazing around the room. Kagome elbowed him. "Miroku, this is my mama."

Miroku bows "Hello Lady Kagome's mama-san. It is a pleasure to meet you. Your daughter looks just like you! Beautiful" Miroku smiled brightly.

"You can call me Ami. Aren't you the monk? The one who flirts with every girl he sees?" as mama giggled after him.

"Indeed, I am the monk and it's not every girl I flirt with, only the pretty ones!" he laughed.

"Ok monk that's enough. While you are here there will be no flirting, no grabbing and no touching. Got that!" Kagome poked a finger at his chest with her other hand on her hip.

"Yeah, yeah I know. I will behave." he smirked.

"How about both of you get cleaned up….Kagome! You're arm!" as her mama walked towards her and touched her arm. "How did that happen? That explains the blood on your uniform. Does it hurt?"

Lifts up right arm realizing she still was holding her bow "Wow! I didn't notice this huge cut on my arm. It looks like the bleeding stopped and it's starting healing."

"That cut looks like a claw cut" Miroku guided Kagome to sit on the couch and took the bow from her "Why are you still holding this?"

Kagome looked confused at Miroku "I don't know. I don't have my backpack and arrows either. Where is your staff?"

"Hmmm good question. I don't know either."

"Kagome, why don't you take a shower while I get the first aid kit so we can fix up your arm? It doesn't look like you will need stitches. I have some clothes from your papa that could fit Miroku he can use after his shower. Go on up. I'll be there soon." mama got up and went into the adjoining room.

"Come on Miroku. Let me show you to the bathroom." Kagome grabbed Miroku's hand and went upstairs into the bathroom.

"What is a bathroom Kagome?"
