Chapter Two: Trying to Pick Up Spilled Beans

Author's Note: Interesting name for a chapter, huh? Well, remember in the first chapter, I used the term "spill the beans" a lot. Well, now that the beans have been spilled, everyone's trying to pick them up before someone else notices. Was that TOO confusing? I hope not. Hugs go out to my 3 reviewers. And I still don't own Inuyasha.

Inuyasha knew about them.

"I've known about your little 'relationship' since that night you two spent near the river. I won't tell Kagome. I'll just pretend you two don't exist. But, now that Naraku's been defeated, I don't think you two'll be hanging around here much longer."

"No, we were actually thinking about staying here. We like it here. And besides, it'd be much closer to you and Kagome than anywhere else." Said Sango. "If you don't mind us invading your privacy, that is." She added with a smirk.

"You're starting to take up some of his habits. Can you two leave so I can sleep?" He growled.

"Sure. We'll leave. And we'll tell Kagome that you've declared your love for her to us!" laughed Miroku.

"Well, I've some stuff on you guys too!" yelled Inuyasha.

"It looks like someone's awake." Said Kagome as she walked into the hut.

"He's not in a very good mood right now." Said Miroku. "We're just going to leave now."

"Yeah, we don't want to catch anymore of his tongue." Sneered Sango.

"I don't want to be with him either." Said Shippou. "Can we go get lost in the forest now?"

Ever since the incident at the river, Sango and Miroku had told Shippou that they'd come up with a game called Lost in the Forest. Shippou loved to play that game. Sango picked him up and they walked into the forest.

"Man, Sango's been acting really weird lately." Said Inuyasha.

"Well, she did just lose her little brother." Said Kagome as she reached for the bandages.

"Not like that. It's the way she kept saying things like, 'We wouldn't want to invade your privacy, Inuyasha.'" He tried his best to imitate Sango.

"Maybe she No. She couldn't. Could she?" Kagome asked herself.

"What?" said Inuyasha.

"Sango knows!" gasped Kagome. "She must've figured it out somehow."

"When did she find the time to figure it out? I mean she's been so busy trying to cover up her relationship with that monk and" mumbled.

"What!" screamed Kagome, "Sango and Miroku are together?!"

"Keep your voice down." said Inuyasha as he covered her mouth. "I really don't want an angry Sango hunting me down when I'm injured ."

In the forest, Sango, Miroku, and Shippou had gotten lost. Miroku found Sango and now they were looking for Shippou.

"Inuyasha knows now." Said Miroku. "It won't be long until Kagome finds out. You know how he his."

"Maybe if I hadn't pretty much said 'I know you and Kagome are together.' In his face, he wouldn't have known."

"Well, he said he'd known since that night at the river but Wait, Kagome told you that she and Inuyasha are together?" asked Miroku.

"Well, I tricked her by saying, 'What would you do if I told you Miroku and I were together.' And she told me everything. I didn't tell her that we're together, I said what if." Sango laughed.

"I think we should go find Shippou now so we can win the game." Said Miroku. (A/N: They're playing a game similar to 'Hide and Seek'.)

Ten minues later, they finally found Shippou, he'd disguised himself as a mushroom but Kirara sniffed him out. "Kirara, you little traitor." He huffed as he rode on Miroku's shoulder.

"You know Shippou, I think you're starting to pick up some of Inuyasha's traits." Suggested Sango.

"No way!"yelled the kitsune. "He's nothing like me! I'm so much cuter!"

They laughed and walked back to the hut. When they entered the hut, Kagome and Inuyasha had been kissing, but Inuyasha sensed them in enough time.

"Kagome, punch me in the stomach." He growled.

"Why?" she asked.

"Because the other are coming." Kagome nodded and puched him as hard as she could in the stomach. He let out a fake yell and Kagome started to panic.

"I don't know what happened." She sobbed, running out of the hut over to Sango. "Inuyasha was just fine. We were sitting there talking and he started yelling."

"It's okay, Kagome." Said Sango. "I'll go look at him." Sango walked into the hut to see Inuyasha glaring at her. She kicked him in the side. "Nice one. Almost had me fooled. Except Kagome forgot to fix her hair. You'll have to try harder next time."

"That hurt Sango. You know I could just tell Kagome what's been going on this whole time then we can all be friends. But I bet you she already knows." He grinned at her.

"You told her!" whispered Sango. "Well then, I'll just have to tell Kagome about your little 'run into' with Kikyou, now won't I?"

"Sango please." He begged. "I love Kagome more than anything in the world. It was during the time I was trying to make up my mind. I chose Kagome and put Kikyou's soul to rest. Isn't that good enough? How would you feel if you found out that Miroku cheated on you with someone else?"

"I've already had that feeling." Choked Sango. "I don't want to have it again."

Inuyasha stared in shock. "I thought he gave all that stuff up when you two got together?"

"I thought he had too." She growled. "But, I was wrong." She puched at the ground, leaving a deep, fist-sized hole in the dirt. "He said it just a cover up so you guys wouldn't figure it out. But, I could tell it wasn't. I forgave him, but it was really hard." She stood up. "Just forget that this whole thing happened, Inuyasha. I do know how Kagome would feel." She left the hut.

"How's Inuyasha?" asked a very worried Kagome.

"He's fine. He reopened the wound on the stomach. But he opened it under the surface, that can be pretty painful. He'll be fine in about a day." She walked away.

"I'll see what's wrong with her." Said Miroku as he went off in the same direction as Sango. "Take care of Shippou." He walked around for a while until he found Sango sitting against a tree.

"What's wrong?" he asked as he sat down next to her.

"Nothing you'd understand." She mumbled, looking the other direction.

"You're still mad about when I flirted with that woman to make Kagome and Inuyasha not think we were together. Is that it?"

"No. But it's similar. Promise you won't tell anyone that I told you?" she said.

"I promise. Houshi's Honor." He held up his hand.

Sango laughed for a second, then her face got serious again. "One night, I went out for a drink of water. I got my drink, but I heard a strange noise, so I followed it. I saw Inuyasha with Kikyou. They were just talking, but then she kissed him."

"When was this?" questioned Miroku.

"It was during the time that Inuyasha said he was going to choose Kagome or Kikyou. I told him the next morning what I saw. He told me not to tell anyone. I said I woundn't tell as long as he didn't say anything about me and you being together. And, we had a deal."

'I can't believe that he would do something like that to her.' Thought Miroku. Then he noticed Sango crying. "What's the matter?"

"I just don't want to see my friends hurt anymore." She wiped the tears away. "Come on, I'm getting hungry. Let's go and try to steal some ramen when Inuyasha's not looking."

He got up, then grabbed her hand and helped her up. "I'm in the mood for something sweeter." He gave her that look.

"What kind of something?" she glared at him, trying get out of his grip.

"A big bowlful of Sango." He kissed her and sat back down on grass, with her in his lap and they continued kissing.

After about five minutes, Miroku stopped. "I'm tired of lunch, how about we go for a swim?"

"How about not." She answered, getting out of his lap. Walking over to a patch of grass with not as much sunlight, she laid down. "How about a nap? I'm getting tired."

He got up and walked over to her. He laid down next to her on his side and put an arm around her waist and they both fell asleep.

Author's Note: Sorry if this chapter wasn't very good, or very long. I've been reading the new Harry Potter book and it makes my writing feel small, short, and not very good. But, I did the best I could, so please give me nice reviews. I'll have the next chapter out whenever I can.
