Chapter 8
Blackmail

Sango woke up the next morning, only in her pajamas. Sango, a little shocked, sat up and heard a groan. She looked down and saw Miroku. I was sleeping with Miroku, Sango asked herself surprised, but her face turned from a salmon pink, to a strawberry red.

Miroku woke up and looked up at the red-flushing, shocked Sango, "Konichi'wa, Sango..."

"Wh-What were we doing," Sango asked, picking up her robe. "W-we, didn't do that, did we?

"Of course not, I wouldn't do that to a sleeping beauty."

Sango blushed, but went on, "What did we go last night, then? You better not have slipped anything in that ice cream, Hoshi Miroku, or else you'll be deader than meat."

"You were probably too tired to remember. We finished our ice cream, I put on a movie," Miroku pointed to the still playing menu screen for "The Breakfast Club." Sango looked at it and began to remember a little bit. Miroku went on, "And around the middle, a little after they smoked the marijuana, you began to fall asleep. So, you were sleeping on me and I didn't want to disturb you. Then I fell asleep and I woke up to you all freaked out."

Sango was still flushed; her cheeks were now a light pink, "That's all?"

"I swear on my grandmother's grave."

She sighed at her accusation, "Gomen, I didn't mean to make such an accusation, it's just you--"

"I'm always acting like such an etchi?"

"Ano, hai... Don't take this personally, but you don't really seem the type to not do stuff to girls while they slept. And--" Sango glanced at the arm around her waist. "Your arm is still on me."

Miroku pulled his arm away and whimpered a little, "Don't hit me."

"I won't, you coward. You allowed me to stay here last night, so, I won't hit you. But if you grope me, I'll show you no pity."

"Wouldn't dream of it."

"You do, that's the problem."

Miroku's face began to sulk and sink a little, "Since when do you know what I dream."

"I don't and I never did, I just guessed and you didn't deny! Ha, mind games work so well."

"I'll get you back, Sango. Right when you won't expect it, you won't even see it coming towards you! Ya won't even begin to know it's happening when I strike!" Miroku narrowed his eyes.

One of Sango's eyebrows raised while the other sat at a normal level. She tilted her head up a little and away. After a moment of silence, Sango finally said one word: "Freak."

------------------------------

Kagome woke up around six thirty to make sure she was up so Rin got to school on time. She remembered that Souta's school started at nine, so she'd have a while to get ready her, get some breakfast, and then wake up Rin.

She slipped out of Inuyasha's arms, but he grunted and pulled her back. "Stay," he whispered in her ear, holding her more possessively.

"I can't," Kagome said. "I have to get ready and have some breakfast ready when I wake up Rin. Plus, I have to call myself in absent for the next week and let them know someone will bring my homework here, most likely Sango, Miroku, or yourself."

"So? You can wait a half hour..." Inuyasha nibbled on her neck and let his arm wander down to the side of her hip.

"I can't, I have to get in the shower."

"I'll join you then." Inuyasha smirked, his eyes still closed.

Kagome blushed and bit her lip, "Don't talk silly... Rin is here and I'm not ready to scar a child for life. Sessohumaru-sama would literally kill me! Ano, he'd probably torture me in front of you, kill me, and then you. Then Rin would be scarred even more--" Kagome was interrupted by the touch of Inuyasha's lips upon hers, like the sun poking out of the sky, saying her farewell to the night.

"You talk too much..." Inuyasha held Kagome closer her and let his hand move more towards the center.

Kagome's muscles tensed up a bit, but didn't deny his touch. "Please, Inuyasha, I just want to take a shower, make breakfast, and then send Rin off to school." Inuyasha still held her close and she sighed. "I'll make your favorite breakfast if you let me go."

"Well, all right," Inuyasha smirked, still holding her. "I like bacon, with eggs, ham, some chocolate chip pancakes and a little sausage on the side. Oh yes, with tons of syrup and butter. Oh yes, and an omelet too!"

Kagome turned and blinked at him, "You're a pig!"

He let a few snickers, which turned into giggles, and became laughter; "I was joking! I could never eat that much in the morning, if I did, I'd be dead!"

"Surprised you aren't now. God knows how much drinking and drugs you did before."

"You don't want to know, believe me."

"Well, maybe I'll ask you later." Kagome winked at him and left for the bathroom. There was a guest bathroom for her all set up with shampoo, soap, towels, and even some perfumes.

Kagome opened a bottle of the perfume and took a small wift of the liquid. It smelled like cherry blossoms and Kagome adored that smell; she had never been able to find a perfume with such a perfect smell. She looked at the bottle, it had no company label, so she looked on the bottom and found nothing. The bottle was shaped with curves and it was very smooth; there was no way this wasn't made by Sessohumaru or Inuyasha... Right?

Kagome put the cap on and the bottle back in its proper place. Kagome turned on the shower so the water would be totally warm when she got in. She took her hair out of the bun it was in and it flowed down to the middle of her back. Kagome stripped herself of the pajamas she was wearing and put them in a basket. Kagome stepped in the shower, pulling the shower door shut with a quiet slam.

------------------------------

Sango came out, wearing a small pair of Miroku's jeans--which happened fit her perfectly--and her shirt. Miroku grinned at her, looking at her shirt. Sango rolled her eyes and covered herself fairly well.

"Damn it," Miroku muttered.

"Etchi," Sango growled. "Just because you kissed me last night and I didn't do anything, doesn't mean that I still won't hurt you."

"That so?" Miroku stepped up to her grinning. He was now about two inches away from her face.

Sango was red with embarrassment and shocked, "H-Hai!"

Miroku kissed her and Sango was just as shocked as she was the night before, except this time, she wrapped her arms around him; she kissed him back.

Miroku grinned while kissing her and made the kiss deeper. Apparently, Sango accepted this and went with it. She never thought she could feel like this, it wasn't until she felt that there was no ground beneath her when the door opened.

"Miroku, honey, we came to--" Miroku's mother stopped at the door. "Oh, my Kami!"

Sango and Miroku stopped and looked at the door; Miroku began to stutter. "Uh... Hi, Okaa-sama... Back so soon?"

"I expected more out of you, Hoshi Miroku," Miroku's mother took him by the ear and dragged him into the living room. "I leave for a business trip, and what are you doing? Making out with some girl we don't even know!"

"Okaa-sama, you're hurting my ear..."

"I don't care, young man! You are grounded until we get back from our next business trip! We leave tonight and we will call every night at nine o'clock and you better answer or else we'll come straight back and send you to that boarding school down the street! That means no girls, only boys!"

Sango covered her face and then she looked up at Miroku's mother, very apologetically, "I'm extremely sorry, Hoshi-san. This will never happen again, I promise. We did nothing wrong at all, we were just kissing. Surely, you could understand that!"

"You!" Miroku's mother pointed at Sango, her finger an inch away from her face and her finger was also between her eyes. "Are never aloud near my son ever again! You are to leave this apartment and never even glance at it! If come within 100 kilometers of Miroku, you'll be in big trouble, young lady!"

Sango stared in disbelief, pain in her heart, "Y-You can't do that! Please, Hoshi-san, don't do this!"

"Get out of my apartment, now!"

"Hoshi-san--"

"Now, before I call the cops!"

Miroku escaped the grip of his mother's finger and went over to Sango when she was about to leave. "I won't let you do this, Okaa-sama."

"You get away from her right now or else I get a restraining order!"

"No, Okaa-sama. I won't let you kick Sango out. If you kick her out," Miroku took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes, "you kick me out."

"M-Miroku, stop talking nonsense! You wouldn't leave this house!"

Miroku took Sango into her room and Miroku began to pack his clothes and his precious possessions. "Watch me." Miroku walked out of the apartment and he walked down the hall. When he walked down the stairs, his mother shouted out, "Miroku! You forgot the picture!"

"It's not precious to me," Miroku shouted back at his mother, knowing he was breaking her heart.

Miroku and Sango walked out to Miroku's car and they got in. "Miroku," his mother exclaimed from the balcony.

"Good-bye, Okaa-sama," Miroku shouted, starting the engine. He backed up and drove away.

Sango gaped at Miroku, He left his family for me? "What are you doing?"

"Not letting my parents run my life anymore," Miroku looked over at Sango and smiled at her. They had come to a red light and Miroku kissed her lightly. "You mean so much more to me that my parents. All they care about is an heir... You, Sango, you care about what I feel and that's the world."

Sango's eyes welded up a little and a tear ran down her cheek, "Really?"

"Hai, Sango..." Miroku kissed her again for a minute until a car honked at them. They broke the kiss and drove to Sango's apartment where Kagome had still not come home.

------------------------------

Kagome was downstairs, only standing in a light blue robe, cooking some scrambled eggs and calling up to Rin: "Rin-chan, breakfast is almost ready, hurry!"

"Be down in a minute," Rin shouted back.

Kagome turned the stove off and tipped the eggs on to a plate for Rin to eat. She set out a fork and poured some milk in a glass; she heard the phone ring and she picked it up, "Sessohumaru-san's home, how can I help you?"

"K-Kagome," Miroku stuttered over the phone.

"Oh, hello, Miroku!"

"What are you doing?"

"I'm babysitting Rin for a week while Sessohumaru is on a business trip. Inuyasha is upstairs sleeping."

Rin came running downstairs and exclaimed, "Kagome-sama, could you do my hair after I finish eating?!"

Kagome moved the speaker away from her mouth and smiled, "Of course, Rin. You better hurry though, you have to get out to the bus in fifteen minutes."

"Hai!"

"Kagome," Miroku asked from the phone.

Supporting the phone with her shoulder, she replied, "What's up, Miroku?"

"I need to speak with Inuyasha urgently."

"He's sleeping and Buddha knows what'll happen if you wake up Inuyasha."

"He'll start growling, get all grumpy, and snarl at anyone who talks to him," Rin shouts.

"Doesn't sound like Buddha to me," Miroku's voice sounded like he just grinned.

"Hush, Miroku," Kagome replied, she checked the caller ID. "Why are you calling from Sango's?"

"Oh, I moved out because my parents came back and caught us kissing--"

"Kissing?!" Kagome shrieked at the top of her lungs. "Oh, my Buddha! It's a miracle! It finally happened! Did Sango slap you?!"

"No, but that's off subject..."

"Gomen..."

"Anyway, my mother walked in on us kissing and she told Sango to leave. I told her that if she was kicking Sango out, she was kicking me out. She said I wouldn't, so I packed my bags, and before I left, I said, 'Watch me.' That's when I walked out the door with the very lovely Sango. So, now I'm here. You don't mind, do you?"

"Of course not! This is great! You and Sango... Living together! It's so romantic!"

"Hai, well, good-bye, Kagome."

"Ja ne, Miroku." Kagome hung up the phone and Rin had just finished her breakfast.

Rin held out the brush and some ponytail holders. Kagome smiled and she brushed her hair, working through some knots, careful not to hurt Rin. Kagome put her hair into a half ponytail with her bangs hanging down. Rin smiled at her reflection and hugged Kagome, "Arigatou gosaimazu, Kagome-sama!"

"You're welcome, Rin," Kagome hugged her back and helped her put on her shoes. "You better hurry."

Rin grabbed her backpack and ran out the door, "Good-bye, Kagome-sama!"

"Bye, Rin." Kagome closed the door behind Rin and smiled to herself. She sighed and wished she could go to school with Sango and tell her about last night, but she had to stay like at home Sessohumaru said...

Kagome could hear the bus stop for a moment and then leave. She sighed with relief and when she turned around, Inuyasha was standing there. Kagome jumped against the door, "Holy shit, Inuyasha! You scared the crap out of me!"

Inuyasha kissed her, wrapping his arms around her, "Nothing but a robe, eh?"

Kagome blushed, "Well, I uh, you see, it's um--"

Inuyasha locked his lips with her for a few plus a couple of moments again and whispered, "It's OK..."

Kagome held him close, and began to kiss him again. Inuyasha was only in his boxers, so Kagome moved her arms around his stomach to feel his abs. They were well built and they weren't flabby or too bulky, just right. Inuyasha began to untie her robe and move his arms inside her robe; he held her closer and stroked her back lightly. Kagome sighed and felt some poking that couldn't be mistaken.

Inuyasha kissed her, while walking backwards to take her to the couch. Kagome followed and the two laid down on the black-clothed couch. Kagome lay down on top of him as Inuyasha's lips moved from hers, down to her neck, nibbling along the way. Kagome relaxed herself, knowing that this was a little wrong and a little fast for her, but she wouldn't let that get to her.

Inuyasha nibbled along, licking any blood that trickled down her neck. He moved down to her breasts and kissed them until he began to nibble them a little bit. Kagome groaned in pleasure and her body was now controlling her. She turned over, putting Inuyasha on top. Kagome's back arched a little, and she let her hands rest on his back.

Inuyasha growled in the back of his throat and moved back up to her lips. Kagome was about to pull down his boxers, when she opened her eyes, still kissing him. Was she ready for this? Was she even old enough to be doing this? Inuyasha pulled his hands on hers, he struggled to make her hands go down, but she held back.

"What's wrong Kagome," Inuyasha asked, breaking the kiss.

"I-I..." Kagome stuttered. What was she supposed to tell him? She loved him, of course she did, more than anyone she could love, but she was only 15. Kagome was only about to go on to 16 in three months. "I-I-I'm not ready... I just c-can't..." Kagome pushed Inuyasha off her and she closed her robe. A tear trickled down her cheek and she looked away.

"It's all right, Kagome," Inuyasha took her arm and turned her around to see Kagome crying. "I don't hate you, I still love you."

"I need to get dressed..." Kagome looked down at her feet, got up and went upstairs to the guest bedroom. She was just as torn apart as Inuyasha was. Why couldn't I just do it? I love him, I trust him, and he even wrote a song for me... Why couldn't I? I'm such a wimp... Kagome cried into her pillow, but wiped her tears away. She sighed and put on a white tank top with a pair of tan khakis. She slipped on the red haori and she walked into her bathroom.

Kagome's hair was still a little damp, but that didn't matter to her. Kagome pulled her hair up into a normal-height ponytail and she glanced over at the cherry blossom perfume. She dabbed some on and walked to the stairs. Inuyasha stood at the bottom of the stairs and said, "I'm not mad at you, I don't hate you. I think I love you even more..."

Kagome looked down and clenched the collar of the haori, covering herself, "Inuyasha, you don't have to lie. If you want to be ma--"

"But I'm not. If you're not ready than that's all right with me, we'll take it step by step."

"Really...?"

"Keh, I'm not gonna lose some girl just because I want to make a home run."

Kagome looked down, bit her lip, and shook her head a little. Inuyasha's arrogance was getting to him, but that didn't matter. Kagome looked up and walked down two steps and then groaned, "Ah, hell with walking!" Kagome hopped on the railing and slid down.

Inuyasha caught her and kissed her, "Just always remember, you're everything..."

"How could I forget?" Kagome kissed him and the two stood there when there was a ring of a doorbell. Kagome broke the kiss and put a finger over his lips, "I'll be right back..."

Kagome answered the door and groaned, "Hello, Kouga-kun..."

"My woman," Kouga exclaimed, hugging her.

"Put me down, onegai."

"Gomen, love." Kouga smiled and handed her a bouquet of daisies. "For the only woman for me."

"Arigatou, Kouga-kun. Even if you give me flowers, we're still only friends, Kouga-kun."

"Do itashimashite. Can't you just love me back, though?"

"Kouga-kun, we went on one date and you were the most arrogant, disrespectful, selfish baka I have ever seen in one youkai. So, if you do not mind, I would like to get back to cleaning."

Kouga sniffed the air, "Is that hanyou I smell all over you?!"

"Go, Kouga, now."

"You're dating that hanyou, Inuyasha aren't you... That's his haori!"

"So? Is that such a big deal? Go before I send Sessohumaru after you."

"Sessohumaru?! That stupid pup?!"

"It ain't a pup no more, Kouga. He's a lot stronger and faster than you, so I suggest not fighting with him."

"Fine, be that way. But you'll always be my mate!" Kouga left and Kagome slammed the door.

"God, what a baka!"

Inuyasha eyed her, "His mate?"

"Ugh, he's such a pig. He thinks that I'm his mate and we never even mated! I'm still a virgin for Kami's sake."

"Why, that no good, stupid, mother f--"

"Inuyasha, even though he may act like a jerk and call me his mate and his woman, that does not mean go after him with a sword and jab him to death. That means calm down, relax, and take a chill pill."

"Fine, but if he comes here again, I'll--"

"Calm down? Not beat the crap out of him?"

Inuyasha growled, but Kagome silenced it with a kiss, "Kouga will never have a special place in my heart. Only you could fill a place in my heart."

Inuyasha grinned, "I'm much more hotter than him too."

Kagome shook her head, "You're so arrogant."

"Yet sexy." Inuyasha kissed her and Kagome fell into a trance.

------------------------------

Later that afternoon, after school, Sango and Miroku went to Inuyasha's house to check up on the two. When they arrived, they heard some fighting in the background; when they walked in, Kagome was yelling at a lazy Inuyasha.

"Would you at least help," Kagome shouted. "Or are you just gonna sit here and wait for Sessohumaru's lawyer to come and then clean?"

"I think we just tell the bastard that he can do a fucking conference somewhere else."

"Well, with the mess you've made, I would think you would at least pitch in a little, tiny, itsy-bitsy bit!"

"You think that Jaken will actually give a shit? I mean, have you seen Rin's room?"

"Well, he doesn't go in Rin's room, now does he?"

"Why don't you just relax, sit next to me, and watch a movie? Come on, you can pick, I promise."

"The reason I can't relax is because I want to make sure Sessohumaru doesn't kill us both!"

Inuyasha grabbed her hips and set her on his lap, "Come on, koibito. You've cleaned enough." Inuyasha kissed her and Kagome fell into another deep trance. She sighed and kissed him back.

Miroku cleared his throat, "Ahem..."

Inuyasha growled, "What do you and Sango want?!"

"Just checking up on you..."

Kagome looked up and saw Sango. Kagome hopped up and pulled Sango up the stairs and the two boys heard something like, "You have to tell me everything!"

Miroku and Inuyasha rolled their eyes and Miroku sat down next to Inuyasha. Inuyasha eyed the lecherous friend and said, "So... How'd it happen, I guess."

"She came over, I offered her some ice cream, she said something else, then we kissed. Simple as 1-2-3, but for woman, it'll take them a hour."

"Might as well amused ourselves then... Poker?"

"Got cash?"

"When don't I?"

Miroku grinned and pulled out a deck of cards. "Prepare to lose that cash in your wallet."

"Vise versa, Hoshi," Inuyasha smirked and moved to the other side of the coffee table.

------------------------------

Meanwhile, Kagome and Sango had just pulled out some cookies and juice. "So, how did it happen?!" Kagome was ready to shake Sango out of suspense.

"Well, it started when I felt really guilty about treating Miroku so disrespectfully when he was trying to get me to relax, you know? I couldn't sleep at all. It was midnight, so I slipped on my robe, went over to Miroku's and when I went, I buzzed Miroku's apartment. He's sounding all tired and I asked him to buzz me in. He said, 'Mm-hmm' and let me in.

"I walked up the stairs, with nothing on my feet. Then, there's Miroku, waiting at the door. Miroku let me in and he shut the door behind us. He asked what I was doing there and I said, 'I'm sorry about what I did, I completely overreacted. I didn't mean to hurt you like that, I felt really guilty, so I came here to apologize.'

"That's when Miroku actually opens his eyes and asks why I don't have any shoes or clothes on." Sango rolled her eyes. "I said that I had clothes on, I just couldn't find my shoes in the dark. Miroku warned me not to go and open the door downstairs again or else the snippy cat guy will yell at me and throw scissors. He wasn't lying, so I stayed. I told him we wouldn't sleep in the same bed.

"He told me he would crash out on the couch and I thanked him for not groping me and for letting me sleep at his place for tonight. There was this sweet kind of sparkle in his eyes... It was like he was actually being a gentleman!"

"Really," Kagome gasped.

"Hai! It was a kiseki! So, anyway, I sat on the couch, looked at a few of his pictures, then he came out and said that his room looked cleaner. When I was going to leave, he asked if I was thinking of my parents..."

------------------------------

"What, when?"

"When you were looking at the picture of my family..."

"What a silly question to ask! I was just viewing the pictures." Sango put on a fake smile, but it couldn't fool Miroku.

"Taijai Sango, you're lying. It's not a good thing to do that, you saw what happened to Kagome and Inuyasha when 'Yasha lied."

"I was, so?"

"Are you going to be all right?"

Sango looked away and nodded her head, holding back tears, "Hai, I'll be fine."

Miroku frowned at her heartbroken tone, "You're not, come on... I have some ice cream." Miroku grinned a little at Sango as she walked towards Miroku a little.

------------------------------

"Oh, my Kami," Kagome groaned. "He will never stop with the blackmail, will he?"

"Of course not," Sango replied. "He is Hoshi Miroku, the ever so famous lecherous, perverted, groping, 'future monk' teenage boy, right?

"So, like I was saying, I took off my robe and I was wearing that one v-cut shirt--"

"The one that's way too low?"

"Yeah, that's it and my plaid pajama shorts. Miroku starts gaping and I told him to stop staring. And then Miroku says, 'Gomen, it's just... You look so...' And then, I'm all, 'Slutty? Whore-like? Horrible? Fat? Oh, Buddha, tell me it's not fat!' So, I cover myself and Miroku has that sparkle in his eyes again. After saying a few so's and getting him to spit it out, he says that I looked so radiant.

"And I'm nervous, I don't know what to say; the only thing that I said was: 'Uh, um. Well, that's, umm... Oh, Kami, that's very, well, sweet.' I blushed so red then, it was beyond embarrassing. That's when Miroku tells me words I will never forget: 'Yeah, I couldn't find a perfect word for you. No word could describe you, not even radiant was high or perfect enough for you.'"

"Oh, Buddha, that's so sweet!" Kagome took a bite of her cookie.

Sango bit a little and sighed, "I know... And that's when I say: 'So, um, yeah! Ice cream? Delicious, what kind is this?' That's when the moment is completely spoiled with Miroku saying: 'Double Chocolate, want some whip cream?'

"He could at least be a little noble for a whole night, but no! He brings that up! And then that's when I this other stuff happens, just listen and you'll see, Kagome..."

------------------------------

"Oh, but what would I be then?"

"Someone who doesn't blackmail people!"

"Sounds boring..."

"It really sounds like the calling of not losing your head."

"You're too violent."

"I gained it by the only etchi in this room..."

Miroku looked around, looking curiously stupid, "Who would that be?"

"The one eating ice cream with me, then flirts, then decides to bring up the blackmail..." Sango took some ice cream and flung it in Miroku's hair.

"OK," Miroku tensed up a little and scooped some ice cream, "That was not very nice." Miroku flung ice cream back, "Prepare to take the consequences."

"What are you gonna do? Charm me? Hit me with your dragon tail? Pray to Buddha to send me to Jigoku?"

"I was thinking more..." Miroku pressed his lips lightly against hers in a slow movement, but not even Sango expected it. Sango was too surprised and too confused to push away or deepen it. Miroku pulled away a little and he opened his eyes; Sango's eyes were still closed and when she opened them, she was blinking. Miroku grinned and said, "Seducing you..."

------------------------------

Sango continued on, "There was this glint in his eye when he told me that, it was just so romantic and so sweet! I could just die right then and there. According to him, after that we watched a movie and I fell asleep. Not wanting to disturb me, he left me there, in his arms, and then he fell asleep. So, I woke up the next morning in Miroku's arms--"

"This sounds like a fairy tale," Kagome sighed, finishing her cookie.

"Not until you hear what happened next!"

------------------------------

Sango woke up the next morning, only in her pajamas. Sango, a little shocked, sat up and heard a groan. She looked down and saw Miroku. I was sleeping with Miroku, Sango asked herself surprised, but her face turned from a salmon pink, to a strawberry red.

Miroku woke up and looked up at the red-flushing, shocked Sango, "Konichi'wa, Sango..."

"Wh-What were we doing," Sango asked, picking up her robe. "W-we, didn't do that, did we?

"Of course not, I wouldn't do that to a sleeping beauty."

Sango blushed, but went on, "What did we go last night, then? You better not have slipped anything in that ice cream, Hoshi Miroku, or else you'll be deader than meat."

"You were probably too tired to remember. We finished our ice cream, I put on a movie," Miroku pointed to the still playing menu screen for "The Breakfast Club." Sango looked at it and began to remember a little bit. Miroku went on, "And around the middle, a little after they smoked the marijuana, you began to fall asleep. So, you were sleeping on me and I didn't want to disturb you. Then I fell asleep and I woke up to you all freaked out."

Sango was still flushed, except her cheeks were a light pink now, "That's all?"

"I swear on my grandmother's grave."

She sighed at her accusation, "Gomen, I didn't mean to make such an accusation, it's just you--"

"I'm always acting like such an etchi?"

"Ano, hai... Don't take this personally, but you don't really seem the type to not do stuff to girls while they slept. And--" Sango glanced at the arm around her waist. "Your arm is still on me."

Miroku pulled his arm away and whimpered a little, "Don't hit me."

"I won't, you coward. You let me stay here for the night, so, I won't hit you. But if you grope me, I'll show you no pity."

"Wouldn't dream of it."

"You do, that's the problem."

Miroku's face began to sulk and sink a little, "Since when do you know what I dream."

"I don't and I never did, I just guessed and you didn't deny! Ha, mind games work so well."

"I'll get you back, Sango. Right when you won't expect it, you won't even see it coming towards you! Ya won't even begin to know it's happening when I strike!" Miroku narrowed his eyes.

One of Sango's eyebrows raised while the other sat at a normal level. She tilted her head up a little and away. After a moment of silence, Sango finally said one word: "Freak."

------------------------------

"Freak," Kagome questioned.

"Hai," Sango sighed. "If Miroku did that to you, you'd be freaked out too! But then, we end up kissing again later on when I changed into a pair of his jeans. That's when his mother walks in. She begins yelling at me to get out and stuff, that's when Miroku tells his mother--"

"I've heard this part. Wow, all of that happened?!"

"Of course! I wish I could record it and be able to watch it over and over and over and over again until I die."

"I would want to, too. Oh, my Kami that kiss just sounded so amazing. It's like the first time I kissed Inuyasha. God, that was so great..."

"I bet it was..."

The two girls sighed in unison and set their drinks on the bedside table. They both closed their eyes and watched dreamt of their first kisses with the two men that meant most to them...

------------------------------

"Ha," Inuyasha exclaimed. "Flush!"

"Chikusho," Miroku cursed.

"I've got sixty dollars now! More cash for me!"

"Fuck you..."

Inuyasha grinned, "No thanks, I have a girlfriend. Her name is Higurashi Kagome."

The girls came walking down, giggling and whispering to each other that made them giggle more.

"What's up with you two," Miroku raised an eyebrow.

"Nani mo, nani mo... Just girl stuff," Sango smiled and she sat down next to Miroku. "Grope me and die."

"Wouldn't dream of it."

"We covered this last night, you do dream of it."

"Oh, should I tell Inuyasha about the ice cream...?"

"Damn you, Hoshi Miroku."

"It's a gift."

Sango rolled her eyes and looked at the cards, "Hey, Inuyasha had a flush! Shame, Miroku..." Sango looked through the cards. "If you had taken this ace, you could've beaten him."

Miroku sulked a little, "Shut up..."

"Oi, I can't help that I'm better than you." Sango smiled and Miroku opened his mouth then shut it. Sango smirked, "That's right, I have blackmail on you, too, Hoshi Miroku."

"Tell us," Kagome exclaimed, leaning forward from her seat next to Inuyasha in suspense.

"Don't Sango, or I tell them..." Miroku eyed her.

"Kagome already knows," Sango smiled.

"You mean the double chocolate--" Kagome said, thinking aloud.

"Hai."

"With the whipped--"

"Hai."

"Really? He knows?"

"He was there, wasn't he?"

Kagome scratched her head, "He was, wasn't he?!" Kagome giggled a little, "Thank Buddha that Inuyasha or Miroku wasn't there with what I did--" Kagome smacked her hands over her mouth.

"What did you do, Kagome," Inuyasha smirked.

"None of your business," Kagome's voice was muffled by her hands.

"Of course, it's my business. My girlfriend does something that could be considered as blackmail... It's my business then."

Kagome huffed, "I'm not telling you."

"Well, Kagome and I were playing truth or dare at a party--" Sango's mouth was covered by Kagome's hand.

"Shut up!"

Sango pried her hand away, "No! So, anyway. Kagome was dared to--" Sango's mouth was covered again, but Sango pried away again. "Hold her back, for Kami's sake, Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha grabbed her arms and set her in his lap, "Go on, Sango."

"Arigatou, Inuyasha. Like I was saying, until I was rudely interrupted. Kagome was dared to strip down to only her underwear. And you know what? She did that! When she did, all the guys whistled and stuff. She had to stay like that for the rest of the game! Luckily, Miroku left, still on his dare to have sex with Kagura in the closet."

Inuyasha turned his head and gaped at Kagome, "Y-You did th-that...!"

Kagome released her arms and covered her face in her hands; her face had turned an extreme red. "I hate you, Sango..."

Sango sighed and replied, "He had every right to know. You are his girlfriend."

"And it might improve the sex," Miroku exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.

Sango took her Hiraikostu and hit him on top of the head with it. "Hentai!"

Miroku rubbed his head and plopped down on the table. Inuyasha still gaped at Kagome, imagining her in only her panties. It was an amazing site, her soft, silky skin. The curves of her body and her eyes shining in the light. It was a very bad day for Inuyasha to wear his tight jeans today.

Kagome looked up at him, "Stop looking at me like that, kisama hentai!"

Inuyasha shook his head, still picturing her like that, "Gomen."

"Since you told Inuyasha, I get to tell him about your incident that night, too!" Kagome's face looked at Sango, it was grinning deviously.

"Oh, no, you don't!" Sango struggled, but Miroku held her back.

"Miroku, Sango, Kagura, Naraku, Kouga, and I were playing truth or dare this time--" Sango tried to kick her, but Kagome leaped up on to the couch. "It was Kagura's turn! She dared Sango to take off her shirt, lie down on the ground, and let Miroku eat a scoop of ice cream off her with his mouth; whip cream on top as well. The ice cream had to be between her breasts." Miroku smirked at the memory, remembering like it was yesterday. "So, Kouga got some double chocolate ice cream and whip cream. Sango took off her top and Kagura put the ice cream on her chest. Naraku put the whip cream on top and Miroku leaned down. Before Sango could chicken out, Miroku had already started to eat it." Sango growled at Kagome as she went on. "When he was finished, Sango looked like she really enjoyed it. Obviously Miroku did, you could see it in his pants."

"You bitch," Sango shouted, escaping Miroku's grip. "You're dead!"

Kagome hopped off the couch and ran around the house--upstairs, downstairs, the basement--they ran, constantly. They didn't even stop for a breather. Inuyasha and Miroku shook their heads. They both nodded and when they came by, they took the two girls and swung them over their shoulders.

Kagome and Sango heaved for breath. Miroku glanced to the side and grinned, raising his eyebrows for a slight moment at Inuyasha. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and took Kagome out of the house. He set her down and when she was about to storm in, he stopped her.

"Let me at her," Kagome growled.

"Let me at you," Inuyasha grinned, kissing her. He still pictured that thought of Kagome in nothing, but her underwear. He grinned from ear to ear, feeling a little light in his pants.

Kagome felt a familiar poking in her hip, she giggled. Inuyasha blushed, "Gomen..."

"It's all right," Kagome winked at him.

Inuyasha grinned and dipped her. Kagome giggled and kiss him, wrapping her arms around him securely.
