"Sango, what's wrong?" Kagome asked the next day. Kagome asked a few days later. Kohaku was doing better by the day and Sango was at her worst. Shouldn't it be different? Neither Sango nor Miroku told anyone else about the blood being from Naraku or his little 'compromise.' Kagome could tell though... Something was wrong.
"Nothing Kag... Don't worry about it. Hey, how are those measurements coming along?" Sango asked, changing the subject. She'd been spending most of her time over at Kagome's house, partly to avoid that painful feeling when she saw Miroku, and partly because Kagome was helping her with her costume. She would have gone to the dance whether or not she had a date, so she knew Kagome couldn't ask too many questions about that. Kagome could however, ask questions about Miroku.. And she did... A lot. Sango of course, didn't feel like talking about Miroku and would change the subject to Inuyasha. This of course made Kagome miss him (She hadn't talked to him since last night! Shock!) And so she called him. They got the idea for Inuyasha to come over. Woah.... Dominos... Let's do it again!
Inuyasha then thought it would be a good idea to bring Miroku, who'd been in the house a lot lately. (A/N: I wonder why.) Miroku then asked and was told who was there, which caused him not to go which caused Inuyasha to shout which made Sango wince and Kagome get suspicious. Wow... Not only was that dominos... That was one sentence. My English teach would murder me. XD

"Why don't you want to go?" Inuyasha prodded Miroku that Thursday. Yes Ladies and gents...the Dance was (lo and behold) tomorrow. And what was Inuyasha complaining about? Miroku wasn't going to go! Which in turn, led him to the conclusion that something had happened with Sango. The fact that they had avoided each other all week had nothing to do with it...
"Sango will be-"
"Inuyasha, drop it." Miroku warned. He already felt sick to his stomach about Sango going with someone other then him. The fact that she was going with Naraku wasn't helping anything either. It wasn't a sickness like the flu... More like foreboding.
"Alright..." Inuyasha sighed, "You know, they caught the guys that hit Kohaku."
"Who were they?!"
'Calm... I don't know them. Some guys named Hiten and Manten, brothers. Said they were paid to do it... They just wouldn't tell who."
"I bet it was that bastard..."
"Who?"
"Never mind... I'm going out" Miroku said, grabbing his jacket.
"What?! We're supposed to be at Kag's in ten minutes!"
"Tell them I couldn't make it." Miroku said, and shut the door.
Now Inuyasha knew something was up.
* * * * * * * *
"You mean Sango's not here either?"
"Nope, she called a few minutes before you got here and canceled. Said something about not feelings well."
Inuyasha sighed. "What is going on with them?"
"I don't know... It's got to be bad though. They haven't talked all week! They act more like a couple then we do."
"Yeah I know..."
. . .
"That's a warning for me isn't?"
"Oh yeah."

Sango walked down the street to the ice cream shoppee. So she lied to Kagome to get out of seeing Miroku. So what? She wasn't that hungry anyway.
Then why are you getting ice cream?
.... Shut up. Damn voices in your head.
Ok... So the truth was she didn't know what to say to Miroku. He looked so hurt when she agreed to Naraku, and she felt like she let him down. There wasn't anything else she could have done though. Miroku had even said before, Kohaku needed that blood. She thought about trying to get out of going with Naraku, but then he started sending letters... Threats if you will, saying he could make anything happen. His family owned almost everything in this town. She wouldn't be surprised if Naraku had made Kohaku get hurt.
Walking up to the counter, Sango caught the sight of purple out of the corner of her eye.
'Miroku...'
Talk to him
I can't
Why not?
Because... I won't know what to say.
So? Don't say anything, just sit next to him.
Are you insane?!
I don't know, are you?
....
You know you want to talk to him.
I won't fall into peer pressure.
Sango... It's not peer if it's coming from your own head!
...so?
So.... What are you waiting for? If you don't do anything soon your chances with him will fade.
How would you know?
I know everything
Ok.... I'm going to talk to him. Nothing bad can happen right?
Ofcourse not, you lo-
LIKE!
...whatever, You 'like' him. Everything will turn out fine.
'Wait... Who's that girl!?'
"Hey Miroku" she said from behind him. Miroku turned around and smiled a bit at the girl.
'Ok... That isn't supposed to happen' Sango moved closer so she could hear better...without being seen of course.
'Who is this girl and why is she nice to Miroku... Wait... I KNOW she's not sitting next to him... damn.....'
Saw you again for the first time, In a long time
It brought out all these feelings that I never knew I had inside
Seeing you with another girl it didn't sit with me too well
and I'm mad at myself cause I love you and with or without you I'm going through hell.
I don't think that I could shake ya, So baby can we make up
I know that this is kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
I don't think that I could shake ya, so baby, can we make up
I know that this kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
'She's pretty... The kind of girl Miroku would like. What am I thinking?! Gods... She's gonna ask him... She can't! No way... Why should I care anyway? It's not like I'm going with him... He should have fun and go... But with her? Damn Naraku...'
I never knew I could love you, how I love you
I thought that I was through with you, so glad that I could be single
Now I'm caught thinking about the past and wish that we could just go back
And I'm mad at myself cause I love you and I really want you to come on back
"Do you have a date for the dance?" The girl asked sweetly. She was practically throwing herself at him... the slut.
'Oh I hope he doesn't say yes...'
"No I don't" Miroku said.
"Well... Would you like to go with me?"
I don't think that I could shake ya, So baby can we make up
I know that this is kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
I don't think that I could shake ya, so baby, can we make up
I know that this kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
'I can't let him go with her... I know I'm just being selfish but I can't.'
"Miroku!"
I don't know if I'm crazy
But all the pain and the heartache you gave me
That only made me wanna get back with You oooo
You held her hand the way Ya held mine
You felt her uhhhh The way ya felt mine
and all the fighting that we went through
See I was already used to it
Miroku turned around and saw Sango walking his way.
'How long has she been there?'
I don't think that I could shake ya, So baby can we make up
I know that this is kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
I don't think that I could shake ya, so baby, can we make up
I know that this kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
"Excuse me Sango, but we were talking."
"Oh... Oh well" Sango sat down, ignoring the glare she was getting from the girl. Sango then remembered it was one of those gossip girls... Damn them. "I need to talk to him more."
"I doubt that." The girl sneered, "What do you say Miroku?"
Start the internal battle!
'She's pretty'
But she's not Sango
'Sango... Is going with Naraku'
For her brother's sake!
'... I know I know... But I still want to go.'
Oh please... You only want to go to make sure Sango's ok.. You don't need a date for that!
'But she asked!'
NO!
'Gods you don't have to yell....'
"I'm sorry Mika, but I don't think I'll be going anyway." Miroku said calmly.
"Oh... Well... Are you sure?" She pressed.
"I'm sure."
"Fine..." Mika stood up, and walked away... Not without giving a glare to Sango who stuck out her tongue.
"Why didn't you say yes?" Sango asked after the girl had left.
"Because she isn't you." Miroku answered calmly.
I don't think that I could shake ya, so baby can we make up
I know that this is kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
I don't think that I could shake ya, so baby, can we make up
I know that this kinda crazy, but Baby, I wanna make up
