Chapter 4: Separation! NO! SAVE ME!
Inuyasha and Miroku's POV
Inuyasha's ears swiveled about as he heard Sango stand to sit near Kagome. He did not spare them a glance but tried with all his might to keep his concentration on hearing their conversation *please don't let them be suspicious* he kept repeating in his mind over and over again. He spared a glance toward Miroku who seemed to be in the same state, as he, for he knew that if they were to find out they would die. That was it, they wouldn't think twice about it either… he would be sat to death and Miroku would be beaten to death with Hiraikotsu.
*Those two are so deep in thought, that I bet Inuyasha wouldn't notice a youkai attack and Miroku wouldn't notice if I pranced around naked!* Sango thought.
Miroku couldn't help but choke at that… the image of Sango prancing around in all her glory dancing though his mind, but he banished it. He would not think of her that way, sure he groped her but that was only because… well… he kind of liked her and he didn't want her to know. But he shook his head no. His feelings for her ran deeper then like, he was absolutely in love with the youkai exterminator. Miroku looked up to notice her staring at him, her cheeks tinted slightly red. He looked away to notice Inuyasha's slightly red cheeks *Had he heard the same thing that I had heard?* He wondered.
Inuyasha was glad for Miroku coughing into his hand like he did, if it were not from that then Sango would have surely noticed his bush stained cheeks. After a while of listening to there conversation Inuyasha came to the conclusion that they knew they were lying to them, and he was going to get up and drag Miroku with him when a thought reached his mind. It wasn't his own.
*But if we work together we can handle anything!* It was Kagome's thought, but that was not what caused him to pause in his actions. The next part was. *Besides Inuyasha could handle anything and I trust him with my life.* He could feel his heart stop at those words. Did she really feel that way, did she really trust him that much. His ears pick up the last part of the conversation, and his eyes caught Kagome's evil smirk.
Inuyasha stood suddenly. "Miroku, you got a second?" He asked.
Miroku glanced at him suspiciously, but one glance at the girls told Miroku he heard something that he both should and should not have. He nodded and stood to exit the hut with Inuyasha. Something in the back of his mind told him that his life depended on getting out of this hut as soon as possible.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My POV
Kagome noticed Inuyasha stand and whisper to Miroku, she knew that he had heard what they were saying. How could he not of, he has super human hearing. If she were to let him go now they would come up with a cover story, just in case they were questioned alone. She was just surprised Inuyasha had thought of it and not Miroku. Kagome stood and Sango fallowed her lead.
"Inuyasha, were are you going?" Kagome asked placing her hand on his arm, Inuyasha gulped.
Sango had remembered Kagome telling her of this tactic, and smiled to herself as she turned her eyes on the monk. "And you Hoshi-sama, were are you off to?" She asked, and his eyes nearly popped out of his head as she rest her hand upon his chest. She could feel his heart beating rapidly in his chest, she smiled inwardly.
Miroku and Inuyasha told themselves over and over again *They do not mean this! They said so themselves, this is just a tactic from Kagome's time!*, but despite that knowledge they couldn't help themselves. Miroku was speechless, Sango had always beat him over the head for even touching or getting to close to her, yet here she stood with both hands on his chest smiling sweetly at him. It was confusing to say the lest, but also a pleasure. Inuyasha rolled his eyes it would be up to him to save the day. So surpassing the urge to just standing there staring into Kagome's gray blue eyes (I'm going with that color cause it's most often used, but if they're actually a different color then say so) but he would not let himself get trapped.
Inuyasha shrugged away from her touch. "Were going for a walk." He mumbled.
Sango and Kagome's eyes got bright and wide. "Can we come with you?" They asked.
"Sure, why not?" Inuyasha sighed. He knew this was a trap, he knew it… but he just couldn't resist the look in Kagome's eyes, he just couldn't. So they started down the path toward the well arm and arm, while unbeknownst to the guys they were headed in two separate directions. They were too caught up in thoughts of there own demise, not to mention the close proximity they seemed to be sharing with the women that they secretly loved.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha and Kagome's POV
Inuyasha and Kagome walked arm and arm for a few minutes before she noticed that Sango and Miroku were far enough away. *Maybe I should wait just a moment more, it's kind of nice walking alone with Inuyasha.*
At that thought Inuyasha took a glance around them to notice that Miroku and Sango were nowhere to be found. Inuyasha felt his heart climb up to his throat. He swallowed hard. He has been alone with Kagome before, why was now so different? He wondered. "Were are the others?" He asked looking around curiously.
Kagome sighed as she let go of Inuyasha's arm. *Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.* "Inuyasha were did you really go?" She asked. "And don't lie to me, okay." She said softly, staring at the ground with a slight blush on her face. Why is she blushing, it just Inuyasha? They've been alone together a bunch of times, but why does now feel so strange?
Inuyasha turned his head slightly, so that his eyes did not meet with hers. "You already know where we really went." Came his reply.
Kagome felt tears prick at her eyes, he was lying to her. At lest he hadn't done it while looking her in the eyes. Kagome forced Inuyasha too look at her. He did, and he could see and smell the unshed tears that Kagome tried desperately to keep from falling. Inuyasha was instantly angry with himself. That's all he seemed to do, was make her cry and because of his stubborn attitude he couldn't do anything at all to comfort her. Usually. "Inuyasha." She whispered. "Why won't you tell me the truth?" She asked.
"Kagome… I…" Inuyasha didn't know what to say, he couldn't lie to her face. Inuyasha sighed. "I fought a youkai." He answered, slowly. Inuyasha searched her eyes; he didn't want to be sat.
"See Inuyasha, that wasn't so bad now was it." Kagome asked, as she eyed him. "Thank you, for telling me the truth. Now hurry up before Sango thinks something's wrong." She said as she headed back towards Keade's hut. Inuyasha was surprised that he wasn't eating dirt about know, maybe he should keep this in mind for later uses.
(A/N: I'm sorry but I suck at writing scenes like this, fighting scenes, arguments, comedy I can handle but stuff like this… Ah! And I call myself a hopeless romantic!)

Miroku and Sango's POV
Sango walked into the night darkened forest with Miroku by her side, oddly enough they have been walking for a few minutes or so and he still hadn't tried to cop a feel. Sango was a little worried and relieved at the same time. *I wonder if something is wrong with him* she thought, *What ever it is I am glad for it, unless its fatal.* She thought worriedly.
Miroku was actually enjoying himself, especially the many thoughts that ran through Sango's head. He found, that, for once he didn't want to grope Sango but instead wanted to enjoy her in another way. Besides he was also quite enjoying not getting the crap beat out of him, as long as he threw her off she might forget about questioning him. He found, that it was in fact hard not to want to grope her. Especially now that she is just so deep in thought that she wouldn't notice his hand slide down her backside. That gave him an idea, even though he knew he would regret it later.
Sango stopped frozen in place, then turned a deadly glare on Miroku before continuing on her walk. She wanted desperately to hit him up side the head, or beat him into the ground with Hiraikotsu. Sango sighed, trying to rid herself of the anger, as she remember the other tactics Kagome said were used in her time. Sango only hopped this one works.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Miroku's POV
Miroku was confused to say the least, why hadn't she smacked him? He wondered. She didn't even yell! He was too distracted by her to read her thoughts, and now she was too faraway. He could catch up with her, he reasoned, but then that might be suicidal. So the monk decided the best option would be to head back to Keade's hut. With a heavy sigh, he started in that direction. Why must he always do that? He wondered. They were doing just fine together, he hadn't even groped her yet. Miroku growled out of frustration, why did he have to think about groping at that moment. It was hard to not want to, but Sango wasn't any ordinary girl! He loved her! He wanted her to bear his children! Ah! *This is just so frustrating* Miroku thought while clenching his fist. *Why can't I tell her how I feel? I know why, it's because I want her to be happy and I know she could never be happy with me.*

A/N: Awe don't you just feel so bad for Miroku… I know I do! Wells anyways what do you think of this chapter huh? Well I hopes you all likes it *Grins wide*
