My Man - The Price of a Rose

(Disclaimer: Inuyasha's not mine!)

*WARNING* this chapter contains extremelly sad scenes!

Kagome buried her face in her hands. "How many times has he broken my heart?!" Kagome sobbed.

Sango leaned her head on her shoulder while hugging her. "Oh Kagome... It's okay!" Kagome sobbed harder.

"No it's not! You're moving out tomorrow!" Sango smiled. "No i'm not. I talked to Miroku and he's gonna move in with us! What do you say about that?" Kagome looked up and through her tears smiled.

"T-thank you!" They hugged once more and Sango let Kagome cry herself to sleep in her arms.

************************ Inu/Sess's Mansion

Inuyasha paced his bedroom thinking hard. "Uh, lets see... Hey Kagome! I really need you to listen to me for a sec about this so called betrayal of mine! No no that's stupid..."

Inuyasha groaned and pulled his hair. "I can't think up a good apologize speech! Wait a minute, why should *I* be apologizing for something I didn't do?"

Inuyasha grinned. "If I get them all to listen to me I can explain what I was really doing and then *they'll* be the ones apologizing!! Haha I'm brilliant!"

He went to his drawer and pulled out his wallet. "First I'll stop by the flower shop, get a shit load o' roses and high tail it to Kagome's!"

************************ Kag/San's Apartment

Sango stood up when there was a knock at the door. She smiled to see it was Miroku who was apparently carrying five boxes and two luggage bags.

Sango sweat dropped. "Uh, okay. I'm not sure all that is gonna fit in my room," she said. Miroku blinked at her and then grinned. "None of this is my stuff! I went to the store and bought loads of clothes for the baby! Toys and diapers and pacifiers too!"

Sango's jaw dropped. "B-but what about all of *your* things?!" Miroku shook his head. "All I had were empty soda bottles, bed sheets, pillows, a tv, and a toothbrush. I didn't bring that though."

Sango gave him a look saying,'You're the craziest person i've ever met.' Miroku smiled. He set down the stuff and looked around.

"Uh, so where's Kagome-san?" he asked. "She fell alseep in her room," Sango replied. Miroku put on a look of sympathy.

"I still can't believe Inuyasha would do that." Sango nodded. "I thought he had more sense. He was so fun and cool in high school. But I guess things change."

The two were silent for a moment before there was another knock on the door. Sango opened it with a smile but she slammed it shut after less than a second.

Miroku raised an eyebrow. "Who was it Sango?" he asked, moving towards the door. Sango made a human growl. "The very bastard we were speaking of!"

Miroku frowned. Sango ran to her room and came back seconds later with Hiraikotsu in tow. Kilala hopped onto Miroku's head (aww how cute!) and prepared to watch the show.

Sango opened the door and started beating Inuyasha mercilessly. Miroku and Kilala had winced everytime the boomerang connected to his skull. "At least it's not me," Miroku murmured to Kilala. The fire cat just mewed in return.

After she had beat Inuyasha to a bloody pulp, Sango slammed the door again but not before noticing the bundle of roses he was holding.

Sango gripped Hiraikotsu so hard it looked like it would crack under the pressure. "That jerk! He came over here to bring me roses!!" (she's not conceited, just confused).

Miroku shook his head. "How worse can he get?"

********************* Outside

Inuyasha groaned in pain. "I WAS ONLY TRYING TO BRING FLOWERS FOR KAGOME!" he yelled with his last bit of strength, then he passed out.

Across the street in a silver porshe sat Sesshoumaru, his golden orbs observing the whole thing.

********************* Inside

Kagome woke up to the sounds of Hiraikotsu beating something to death. "That's odd. I didn't hear her scream hentai," Kagome wondered.

She slowly got out of bed. She opened her bedroom door and saw Sango squeezing the hell out of Hiraikotsu.

"Um, Sango? Miroku?" The two looked up and smiled to see their friend not sobbing away in tears.

"Was someone at the door?" she asked. The two paled. "It was the mail man," was Miroku's smooth answer.

Kagome gasped. "You attacked the mail man?!" she shreiked. "Sango! I gotta go out and see if he's okay!"

Kagome swung open the door before the couple could stop her. "Kagome, I'm so sorry," Sango whispered.

Kagome just looked puzzled. "Are you okay Sango? There's no one here."

********************* Inu/Sess's Mansion

Inuyasha groaned from the searing pain that went up from his toes to his head. "Damn that girl hits hard!"

Sesshoumaru sat in the corner, watching the doctors and nurses. He had brought Inuyasha to the infirmary (which is inside their oh so glorious mansion) after picking him up at Kagome's.

He failed to mention to the doctor that he had striked Inuyasha a couple times in the car for trying to see Kagome after what he did to her.

Inuyasha didn't mention it to the doctor's either because he knew it was a waste. Sesshoumaru was powerful and the doctors wouldn't give shit for anything he did as long as the pain didn't involve them.

"Well it appears most of your bones are broken and i'm not suprised you're still living. You may be half human but you're also half demon so it didn't kill you like it would a normal human," the doctor said.

"Feh! I already know all that crap!" Inuyasha snapped back at him. "When can I start walking around again?" he asked.

The doctor pulled his beard in thought. "I'd say three to four months considering you're part youkai."

"WHAT?!?!?!?!"

This just got a smirk from Sesshoumaru. Today was his lucky day!

******************* Kag/San/Mir's Apartment

Miroku picked up his cell phone after hearing it ring.

"Hello?"

"Miroku!"

"Who is this?"

"Inuya--"

Miroku immediately hung up. Sango and Kagome were sitting next to him. "Who was it?" Kagome asked.

Miroku smiled. "It was Sango's mother."

"I don't have a--" Miroku pulled Sango up. "We need to have a private talk if you don't mind, Kagome-san," Miroku said.

Kagome just nodded. Miroku dragged Sango to her room and shut the door. "Look Miroku! You and I both know my mother died when Kohaku was born!"

"I know! It was really Inuyasha that called!" Sango turned red. "What?! Ooh I'm gonna break that cell phone of yours!"

Miroku paled. "No Sango don't take it out my cell phone! Please!" Sango swung open the door and marched back into the living room.

Kagome sat on the couch then something clicked in her mind. "Hey Sango, didn't your mother die when Kohaku was born?" she asked.

Sango didn't say anything. She picked up Hiraikotsu and slammed it down onto Miroku's cell phone, smashing it into a million pieces.

Miroku screamed (girl scream not guy scream; lol) and cradled the remnants of his phone. "S-Sango?" Kagome gasped.

Sango just wiped her hands. "There! Now that stupid hanyou won't ever reach us by cell phone again!" she covered her mouth after realizing what she just said.

Kagome's eyes began to water. "No no! Kagome-chan I made a mistake! I meant, uh, erm, now that, er, those stupid business people won't 'hand-you' anymore bills!"

Kagome burst out into sobs. "Kagome!" Sango cradled Kagome in her arms like she always did. Miroku was sobbing as well for is 'poor defenseless cellie- poo' as he put it.

******************** Outside

Inuyasha, in a really pathetic way, was crawling on the sidewalk. "I'm... going... to.. talk... to her... no matter.. what!" Inuyasha groaned.

He reached up his finger and rang the doorbell. On the other side Kagome sniffled and went up to the door.

She slowly opened it and gasped when she saw Inuyasha. "Kagome I--" he didn't finish as Kagome slammed the door.

His ears drooped as he heard her slide down the door, cuddle into a ball, and cry her eyes out.

***********************************************************************
