Hey guys! I am so happy that Inuyasha finally came back on Cartoon Network.
(although it's been two weeks already) Did you see Thursday night's/Friday
morning's episode? If that isn't the sweetest thing on the planet, well I
don't know what is. I felt like a giddy school girl again...
Wait a minute. I am a giddy school girl. Well, scratch that last remark. Moving right along, sorry it took so long to update. I started my new high school about a month ago, and I've been adjusting, (It's so cool. Being a sophomore rules! Mostly because since my school's new, I'm in the graduating class. Yep, no juniors or seniors! I am the upperclassman!) and my computer decided to be a pain in my butt for the heck of it. Grr...
Anyways, thank you all for the reviews. I didn't really think this song fic would do that well, but your reviews made me eat my words. So thanks a lot!
Disclaimer: I really don't have much to say.
Attorney: Yes you do.
Shiroryu: No I don't
Attorney: Yes you do
Shiroryu: Fine. *mumbles something incoherently*
Attorney: Louder, so they can hear you
Shiroryu: I DON'T OWN INUYASHA!!! Nor do I own the songs Only Hope and I'm With You. They belong to the guy from Switchfoot and Avril Lavigne. Not me. Happy?
Attorney: I'd be happier if you'd pay me.
Shiroryu: You're a funny one. *laughs to herself* Pay him. What's next?

I followed Kai and Sango back to the house, mentally kicking myself. Where the heck did I come up with crap like that? Priest Miroku? Jeez.
I kicked a stone along the way, trying to figure out just what the heck was wrong with me. When we got there, Sango went inside without even saying anything to me. She said something about a bath to Kai.
Grr...
I trudged to the room I was staying in and bumped into Kagome on my way.
"Hey Miroku. What's the matter?"
"Nothing." I mumbled.
"Hmm.don't believe you."
I looked up at her in surprise. That was rather abrupt.
"Ya know, you should really just tell her. It'd save us all a lot of time." She told me.
"Tell her what?" I asked, completely not understanding what she was babbling about.
"You can be such a guy sometimes." She rolled her eyes and bounced down the hall. That is one thing I just don't get about girls. Why do they always say that? Of course I'm a guy! Why do females feel the need to point it out to us? What else am I supposed to be? A monkey? I shook my head, not wanting to think about it. So I continued on my way to the room, which was quite empty when I got there. I sat down on the mat and stared at the ceiling for about 4 seconds, when Shippo ran in. Whoever thought it was a good idea to give Shippo dessert was obviously a few samurais short of an army. The kid moved faster than Kouga. And talked more than Kagome ad Sango combined (which is really saying something.) Deciding I wasn't going to sleep anytime soon and not wanting to spend my time in a tiny room alone with a hyperactive kid on a sugar high, I got back up and walked outside. I sat against the bathhouse out there, sure that I could be alone for awhile.
"Gods Miroku, you really screwed up." I said aloud. I closed my eyes and leaned against the building. I was not very happy. Maybe meditating would help a bit. "I'm standing on the bridge I'm waiting in the dark I thought that you'd be here by now There's nothing but the rain No footsteps on the ground I'm listening but there's no sound" I opened my eyes quickly. Someone was singing. Beautifully. From inside the bath house I was leaning on! "Isn't anyone trying to find me Won't somebody come take me home" Who was that? I listened further trying to figure out who it was. "It's a damn cold night Trying to figure out this life Won't you take me by the hand, Take me somewhere new I don't know who you are but I I'm with you" It was Sango!!! Sango was singing. Like an angel. I've never heard anything that magnificent in my life. It was...
Wait a minute...
Since when did Sango sing?
I heard rustling around in the bathhouse.
"Crap." I breathed. "I can't let Sango find me here. She'll be royally ticked off if she does."
I quickly got up and ran inside, eternally thankful to Buddha that the room was Shippo-free. I took my place on the mat, thinking. My day had been awful. It felt like I had nothing to look forward to anymore. I closed my eyes as I also thought about what I had just heard. It was wonderful, but really sad. What I wouldn't have given to hear her voice again though.
~Sing to me of the song
Of the stars Of your galaxy dancing And laughing And laughing again When it feels like my dreams Are so far Sing to me of the plans That you have for me over again~
Sango had always told me that she had major changes in store for me. I always just assumed that she'd always be there. But this Kai.er.character brought it all into perspective. Sango wouldn't always be there. One day she wouldn't be there, sitting next to Kagome chatting away, or fighting with the rest of us, or screaming her head off about me and my 'tendencies' when it came to girls and hot springs. I opened my eyes abruptly. That was a hard blow. I never really thought about what would happen once we finished the jewel. I mean, all any of us ever really were concerned with was just finishing it. And ridding the world of Naraku once and for all. What would happen if.um.I mean, when we did that. (Assuming I was still alive) Where would we all go? What would we do?
"Great. To top off a perfect day, I have to go and depress myself." I said to no one. But why was I depressed? The thought of not seeing Inuyasha again didn't exactly bring tears to my eyes. The same with Kagome and Shippo. I mean, they were my friends, and like a family to me. If anything were to happen to them, I'd be really, really, really upset. Inuyasha had become somewhat of a brother and best friend to me. Kagome was like a sister, always looking out for us. And Shippo like...well...um...er... Shippo. But when I thought about Sango, my heart felt like it weighed about as much as the moon. My stomach felt like reviewing what I had for dinner. Just to make sure I remembered. Losing her was way too much to think about. Suddenly it felt extremely hot and muggy in the room. Getting up once again, I ventured outside and ran into Inuyasha.
"Pardon me." I apologized absently.
"Feh. You really have it bad don't you?"
At this I looked up from the ground to meet Inuyasha's stare.
"What do you mean?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Jeez Miroku. Will you stop beating around the bush and just spit it out to her. All this moping around on your part is making me nauseous."
I stared in surprise at him. Inuyasha wasn't exactly to world's leading expert in matters of the heart. Or just keeping his temper down. So why was he able to read me like that? Was it that obvious? I knew I was really pathetic if Inuyasha was giving me advice on my love life.
"I must be really pathetic if you're giving me advice on my life love." I voiced aloud. Inuyasha growled lowly.
"Contrary to popular belief, I, too, am very much aware of the opposite sex, and am not a complete imbecile when it comes to dealing with them." I stared in disbelief. Did Inuyasha just let the words 'contrary and imbecile' escape from his mouth?
"Did you just say 'contrary and imbecile'?" I asked in awe.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes, apparently annoyed. "I'm not stupid Miroku. I just never feel the need to inform people of that. Why go around being pompous and flaunt my vast vocabulary? I already know that I can use these words and comprehend their meanings, so there's no need for me to tell anyone else. That way they don't expect much of me and aren't disappointed. Sometimes it's just easier to play the role of the arrogant, hotheaded, temperamental, tough guy than to sort through all my 'feelings' and be 'intellectual'. Now I trust that my secret will be safe with you, right Miroku?"
"Uh.yeah." I said intelligently. What the heck was the world coming to? Inuyasha, a scholar?
"Good. Now when are you gonna stop playing the idiot and make your move?"
"Wait a minute, if you're so in tune with everything, why don't you realize what's going on with you and Kagome?" I asked. That had been bothering me for a while. Inuyasha's face turned a shade of red, much resembling his clothes. If it wasn't for the hair, I would've lost track of him.
"I don't know what you mean." He said.
I cocked an eyebrow. Maybe he wasn't as smart as he'd seemed two minutes ago.
"Miroku."
"What?" I asked Inuyasha. I hadn't even seen his mouth move.
"Hey Miroku?"
"What?" I asked again. That time his mouth DEFINITELY hadn't moved.
"Wake up!"
"What?"
"I said, 'Wake up!'"
Suddenly my eyes opened to show Sango kneeling over me with a concerned expression on her face.
"Where'd Inuyasha go?" I mumbled, barely coherent. Was it all a dream? Was I still the smart one?
"Huh? Um.he's outside with Kagome. Are you feeling OK?" Sango continued to stare at me like I had just grown purple spots all over my face.
"Yeah...Why?"
"Um...because you have purple spots all over your face." She said.
Hmm...
"WHAT?!" I yelled. I scrambled up and ran down the hall to Kagome and Sango's room. I rummaged through Kagome's bag till I found her little mirror. Hesitantly, I slowly opened the mirror to confirm my fears. Nice, round, plump purple spots decorated my face like stripes decorate a zebra. (I saw a picture of one in one of Kagome's "Zoo Books" Seemed a bit young for her, but whatever.) In case you don't know what a zebra is, I'll tell you they have A LOT of stripes. Meaning I had A LOT of spots.
"AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!" I bellowed. I clutched at my face in pure horror. How in the world had this happened? My head felt very dizzy all of a sudden, probably due to my screaming...er...I mean, yelling. (screaming isn't a very manly word.) I got that nauseous feeling, you know, the one where you know you're gonna throw up soon...yeah. And I did. Then I fainted...um...passed out. (fainted isn't a manly word either.)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I woke up extremely unfocused, fazed, and even a bit disoriented. It felt like that time I was in Edo and there was the wine, and the girls, and that really fat man, and the purple monkeys and.um.never mind. I don't like talking about that. It still disturbs me...
But besides feeling like my head was going to float off my body, I also felt something cool on my forehead. I looked up to see Sango's eyes staring at mine profoundly holding a cloth to my head. So beautiful.
*rub, rub*
"Ack!" she screamed. She slapped me very hard across the face.
"You are such a pervert!" she yelled.
Now even I'll admit, I screwed that one up pretty bad. But it's so hard...
Her butt is so nice.
And firm.
And...
OK, I'm done.
Anyways, Sango threw the cloth at me and stomped out, heatedly. I watched her go, cursing myself under my breath. I always did that. I sighed unhappily and sat up. Then quickly laid back down.
God I felt terrible.
I mean REALLY terrible.
Like being-run-over-by-Sesshomaru's-dragon-while-having-Naraku's-poisonous- insects'-venom-coursing-through-my-body terrible.
Yeah that about sums it up.
I hate being sick.
I also hate purple monkeys
