Vanessa's POV
When I woke up I was way too much pain to be healthy. My ribs ached, my head pounded, and my face burned. 'Stupid Inuyasha - whoa! Did I just say that? But I love Inuyasha!...Okay, losing my mind now.' Anyway I had decided to move for two reasons: a) Find where Heather is, and b) Find out how much pain I could stand. 'Oh yay.' So, I slowly sat up, gritting my teeth. I tried to speak, but my throat was dry and scratchy. Then someone put a hand on my shoulder. I jumped slightly and looked at the person it belonged to.
"Miroku?."
Why can't that damn monk leave me alone?
Heather's POV
I tried to open my eyes but every time I did all I saw was darkness. I couldn't feel my body let alone move if I wanted to. I heard voices too distant to reach. 'I saw the light at the end of the tunnel...alright just stop it.' I opened my eyes again to see fuzzy images. I drew in a breath that made my head swim. I closed my eyes again. I wouldn't give into the pain. I opened my mouth.
"I want water."
Was that my voice?
Vanessa's POV
As Miroku fussed over me, I stared straight ahead. Then I heard Heather. Pulling away from Miroku I clawed my way over to her.
"Heather? Are you okay?"
I spared a glance at Miroku.
"Get her some water, now."
Obviously I was talking better, and the pain still hummed through me. But I had to worry about Heather.
Heather's POV
I heard Vanessa talking to me. I tried to open my eyes but it hurt too much. I opened my mouth to talk but nothing came out. I turned my head to mouth what I wanted to her but the moment I turned an immense pain shot through my body and a scream escaped my throat. 'No more trying that for awhile.' I rested and tried not to think about the pain. I had hoped it would go away but instead I got a horrible headache.
Vanessa's POV
'My God what did that fight do to her?' I stroked Heather's hair. 'Now I'm going to kill Inuyasha.' I bristled angrily. Miroku came over then and handed me a clay bowl with water in it.
"Heather? Can you drink this?"
I hoped so. My muscles were cramping and I needed to lie down soon. Not to mention my vision was fuzzy.
Heather's POV
I opened my mouth to reply to her but my throat was too dry. All I could do was moan. 'Why do I hurt so badly?' I barely remembered the fight and getting hit at by Vanessa and Inuyasha. 'Wait a minute.' My eyes still closed I moved my hand to my side and felt...blood just as I'd guessed. 'But who did it?'
Vanessa's POV
My eyes were drooping but I still saw Heather move. She was bleeding! I set the bowl down albeit roughly. The water slopped over my hand.
"Heather...do you know what happened? Can you remember? I can't..."
I shifted my position. Pain shot through my body. I winced.
"So...I guess we don't have to worry about our bet, huh? No homework while we're here. And so much for our horseback riding, right? Man," I laughed, "I never expected this. To end up with Inuyasha," I suddenly sobbed, "I want to go home already."
Heather's POV
All I wanted to do was comfort her. I lifted my hand up and stroked her hair.
"It. it's...al.ri...ght."
I winced I sounded horrible. 'Where did I find my voice?'
Vanessa's POV
I smiled sadly at Heather.
"No.you're hurt, badly I think, half of it is my fault...I'm hurt as well... this isn't fun at all."
I reached for the clay bowl, my hands shaking.
"Do you still want a drink?"
I wanted to avoid the topic for some reason now. Heather needed to be taken care of. I nearly screamed when a hand rested on my shoulder again. Miroku sat down behind me and smiled.
"Would you stop doing that?!" I yelled
As I twisted lightly to look at the crazy monk, the pain worse, greater than ever, shot through my body like a lightning bolt. The last thing I saw was Miroku reaching for me; the last thing I heard was his voice. He said something about my ribs and lung...
Darkness.
Heather's POV
I finally forced my eyes open just in time to see Vanessa pass out. I forced myself to sit up and screamed. The pain was intense. I grabbed my side that had started bleeding again.
"Don't move you'll just make your injuries worse."
I glared at Miroku. He brought the bowl to my lips and I drank all of it.
"I 'm fine but I'm not sure about Vanessa though I think she's suffering not only physically but also emotionally."
"I believe your right but..." he looked uneasily around the hut, "what can we do?"
"I," more pain came and I winced moaning a little bit," have...no idea. I'll think of something though. If...we don't get her...to relax and.calm down who knows...what she'll do."
Vanessa's POV
I didn't want to wake up again. There was too much pain when I was awake. So I staid in the dark. 'You should wake up.this is just like in the movies.person gets hurt, falls unconscious, and never wakes up because they di- shut up!' I refused to die.I'm just tired.and I'm hearing voices.they sound like Heather and.that nutty monk.
Heather's POV
"Man this ki.AHHHHHHH *smack*Do that again and I'll kill you."
Miroku was rubbing his cheek which had a big red handprint on it.
"It was worth the pain."
"Well good because I'm going to.but Kaede.NO!"
Kaede had been whispering her ideas about me and Miroku to me but they were outrageous. I left the hut.
Vanessa's POV
I really should wake up. The darkness was way too comforting. 'Now get out now!' I woke with a start.and yelled in pain. 'Damn that hurt.that hurt, that hurt, that hurt.' Then I saw someone staring down at me. Miroku! I tried to sit up.too fast. And he didn't move.our lips connected. I froze. He froze. We staid like that. It was scary, it was.nice. I was.'Enjoying it?-shut up, voices.I like this.'
Heather's POV
I walked into the hut with a lot of help from Koga, who surprisingly I wasn't getting along with. He was very attractive but not very nice. I was laughing at something Koga had said when I spotted Vanessa and.MIROKU!! I stopped dead and my eyes got wide.
"VANESSA?!"
Vanessa's POV
My eyes flew open. Heather. Damnit. I shoved Miroku away from me and scrambled back, not noting at first the hurt look on Miroku's face.
"H-Heather! Hi! Oh.hello Koga. How's it going?"
I said all of this in one breath. 'I'll bet I'm in for it now.'
