Time for a change part 47

Hello all! Terribly sorry for the lack of updates, but my week has been incredibly busy. I won't bore you with the details I'll just get to writing. Oh and seeing how noone wanted to tell me what their least fav chapter is, (except for like 3) howabout telling me what your favorite chapter is (AND WHY!). Also I apologize for grammar and spelling mistakes. I use wordpad (no spell check) and I don't have a beta reader becuase then it takes even longer for me to post chapters.

WEDGE WANT FANART! :)

W00T I have a webpage!!!! Go to my bio for it.

I continue to get response for the french kissing thing. Dogs don't french kiss! First of all they don't have lips to kiss with like we do and secondly when a dog uses its tongue he doesn't leave it in your mouth like a french kiss. The main reason they do that is becuase your mouth tastes so good so they are lapping the taste out. And personally I really don't want to invision Inuyasha kissing Kagome doggy style. Though that would be interesting to write about her reaction....

Chaotic Demon- I did not know that. I will have to try it out. (The other reviewers will curse you for this becuase I wasted

time trying it out instead of writing this chapter ;) ) And to me it looks more like a hug than a kiss.

TheWraith-No clue and what do you mean my story doesn't follow its original premise? I don't understand.

Midorimiki and camintmeir-Actually I didn't do that. Fanfiction.net did it automatically for some reason....

Zirrith-Lucky! *Whispers* get me Inuyasha movie 2 and I'll tell you what happens next in the fic. ;)

aleaha-What motivation? I'm super lazy.

leenie- But just think. If this is a short story what would a long story by me look like? MWAHAHAHA

kikyou assasinator- Kikyo is still alive, I just haven't put her in yet.

x -Wow you guessed it all in a single review ;)

Sanosuke- As far as I know, Toshio will not make another entrance, but that doesn't mean he won't...

Katerina- As far as I know, I will not write about that. Inuyasha might have told her at one point, but it is so irrelevent

I probably won't write him telling her.

Molly-On Yahoo! I just typed in Japanese recipes.

inuficcrzy- Becuase she thinks everything is going as planned. She expects those grandchildren to be appearing soon.

Shekahla-Trust me I don't understand women. What I think has contributed to the popualarity of this fic is becuase I have that

'male point of view' when I write, which is so rarely seen becuase as you said, most guys are too busy watching football.

I don't own ahsayunI

Sango sighed as she finished patching another section of roof. The sun was still peeking over the horizon, but it was rapidly

getting darker. "Perhaps we should finish for the day?" Miroku suggested next to her. Sango nodded. The hard work had given

her time to think about what Miroku had told her, especially since they hadn't talked much as they continued their work and

when they did neither of them brought up the morning's conversation, but even after all this time nothing had become clearer

and it seemed that a few more minutes wouldn't help. Besides it would be nice to take a break from thinking as she kept her

face out of Miroku's view so he wouldn't see her blush as well as her behind so he wouldn't be tempted.

"I wonder where Inuyasha and Kagome are." Sango said trying to make conversation as the two of them hopped off the roof. Miroku chuckled. "Enjoy the quiet while you can Lady Sango. Soon enough we will hear them arguing in the distance." The two of them made their way inside of the house where Shippo was scribbling on a piece of paper. "I don't know, they seem to be getting along better now adays. They may already be on their way home." Sango mused. Miroku smirked. "Are you so sure of that?" he asked. Sango glanced his way. "What are you getting Miroku?" she asked. Miroku walked over to the stew pot in the middle of the room and began preparing to make dinner. "Nothing much, just a little bet." he replied as he started chopping carrots. "If Inuyasha and Kagome are fighting when they return I win, if they are getting along you win."

Sango nodded. "Alright, and when I win you will be making the meals for another month." Miroku gave her an amused look. "You

seem awefully sure of yourself Lady Sango. Then I suppose you won't mind if the stakes are high." Sango nodded. "All right then,If I win you must kiss me." Miroku stated calmly. Sango flushed and gazed at the ground as she sat crossed legged in the corner. Miroku chuckled and opened his mouth to tell Sango that he was mearly joking (and probably receive a whack on the head) when Sango beat him to it. "All right." she said timidly. Miroku blinked, extremely suprised, but notheless pleased at this. He let a crafty smile cross his features. Truely this was a chance that he couldn't miss.

Dinner passed in mostly silence besides the excited talking of Shippo and the meows of Kirara. Sango was the first to set down her bowl. "I'm going to take a bath." she informed the rest of them as she stood up. She gave Miroku a withering look. "I had better not catch you peeking Miroku." Miroku simple smiled and inclined his head in acknoladgemen. Sango looked at Kirara. "Make sure he doesn't leave." she said before grabbing her bathing supplies and exiting. Kirara moved to the entrance way and sat in the middle of it watching Miroku warily. Miroku ignored the demon cat and looked over at Shippo who had returned to his coloring. Indeed things were working out perfectly. "Oh Shippo." Miroku said cheerfully. "May I talk to you?" Shippo stuck out his tounge. "Whatever you want me to do forget it."

Miroku chuckled. "Don't be so hasty my little friend. This could be the perfect way to get back at Inuyasha for all the times

he bopped you on the head unfairly." Shippo looked over clearly more interested. "How?" Miroku grinned and beckoned the little kitsune closer. "This is what you have to do..."

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

Sango let herself sink into the cool whater, but it did nothing to stop the warmth in her cheeks. 'Why did I say yes? Why didn't I slap him for being perverted?' she wondered and she traced patterns in the water with her finger. 'It doesn't matter. I am going to win this bet and this will be all behind us.' she thought determindly. 'But why does part of me hope he wins.' she thought with a sigh. Sango slid deeper in the water. This was going to require some more thought.

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

Kagome sat nervously on one side of the table as she waited for Inuyasha to enter. She had fixed the dinner table so that they were sitting on opposite sides. She wanted to be able to gauge his reactions to her cooking and this was the best vantage point. Inuyasha entered quickly once Kagome had announced dinner was ready. He sat down with some annoyance at the

fact that he wasn't sitting next to Kagome like he usually did. Inuyasha studied the various food set out for him, it LOOKED edible enough, but it smelled slightly different than what Kagome's mother made. To comment on this would no doubt have him eating Kagome's fist as well as what she had cooked, not that he realized this. It was just that the Higurashis had never served him a bad meal, so why should a little change in the scent bother him?

Kagome gave him a nervous smile. "Go ahead and dig in, I want you to tell me if you like it or not." Every male knows that really means "Compliment me or die.", every male except Inuyasha of course. Grabbing his bowl and chopsticks Inuyasha began to gulp down food at the ravenous pace he always ate (except around Mrs. Higurashi). Kagome sighed, far too relieved to be disgusted or insulted by Inuyasha's table manners. It didn't matter. He was EATING it and he seemed to like it. Truth be told one couldn't call Inuyasha a picky eater. After all he did eat a frog during biology class with no problem.... Luckily this didn't occur to Kagome and she sat there with a smile feeling extremely happy and pleased with her self. About halfway through his ransacking of the food at the table Inuyasha noticed Kagome wasn't eating.

"Oi aren't you going to eat any?" he asked. Kagome shook her head. "No I'm not hungry, you eat it all." she replied as she handed him a bowl of corn ramen (Not instant, Kagome made this herself). Inuyasha just shrugged and took the bowl happy to see his favorite dish. He immediately began to devour it. After a few bites, however, his eyes buldged and he stopped. Kagome

blinked in surprise. Inuyasha NEVER stopped eating Ramen until it was completely gone. For reasons beyond her comprehension he loved the stuff and she had stopped him from eating it out of the package more than once. "Whats wrong?" she asked. Inuyasha set the bowl down roughly. "This isn't ramen!" he exclaimed. Kagome cocked her head slightly. "Of course it is Inuyasha. I made it myself." For any other man that statement would have been clue enough to shut up and eat it, but not our thickskulled hanyou. "This," he said indicating the bowl, "Is not ramen. This is disgusting! Make real ramen!"

Kagome bristled visibly clearly hurt by his comment and probably near tears. "Fine, you want Ramen? I'll make you some." she said sweetly, too sweetly. Inuyasha smugly sat back in his seat to wait for Kagome to return. In the far corner of his mind a nagging voice was telling him he had made a grave mistake and had better apologize if he wanted to live, but he ignored it. A few minutes later Kagome returned carrying a large bowl of ramen. She brought it over to his side of the table and lifted it above his head. Inuyasha looked up at it curiously. "Here's your Ramen." With that Kagome turned the bowl over and let its contents dump all over Inuyasha. Pieces of vegetables and meat scattered all over him, while most of the noodles stayed on his head.

Inuyasha sat there, wide eyed, stunned beyond comprehension. Then his eyes narrowed and he smirked. Too late did Kagome realize his intentions. Before she could react Inuyasha shook his head violently. Noodles flew everywhere, including on Kagome. No corner of the room was spared from the onslought. When he finished, both he and Kagome were covered in noodles and bits of vegetables and meat. They glared at eachother for a long time, electricity seemed to flow between them. Then Kagome started laughing, breaking the tension between them. Within seconds Inuyasha started laughing as well at the sight of the two of them.

Kagome allowed herself to be pulled into hanyou's embrace and snuggled against him still laughing lightly. Inuyasha kissed his mark on her gently. Then he smirked. "I love you you stupid girl." he growled playfully. Kagome sighed happily. "I love you too you big dumb jerk." With that she let her lips find his. She tilted her head back slightly and Inuyasha tilted his forward. It was quiet a romantic moment until a noodle that still clung to Inuyahsa's hair fell onto Kaogme's face with a splat. Kagome pulled away a bit surprised and glared at the noodle crosseyed cursing it for another ruined romantic moment. Inuyasha smirked again and picked it off her and popped it into his mouth. Kagome made a face. "What?" he asked innocently. "That's gross!" Kagome exclaimed. Inuyasha gave her a gentle nip on the neck. "Why? You taste good." Kagome flushed slightly pink. "You pervert!" she exclaimed pulling away slightly dispite Inuyasha's protests. "You go change into your normal clothes while I start cleaning up this mess. Then we'll go home." Kagome instructed before getting up to fetch a broom.Inuyasha sighed and shook his head before getting up. He never would understand females.

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

Soon enough they had arrived back in the Warring states era. Inuyasha had the bag filled with shippo's painting things and other supllies in one arm and Kagome in the other. The first thing they saw when the arrived (To Inuyasha's annoyance) was a very distraught Shippo sitting on the ledge. With a growl of annoyance Inuyasha leapt out of the well taking Kagome with him.

Kagome rushed over to Shippo's side while Inuyasha set down the bag. "Shippo whats wrong?" Kagome asked kneeling beside him.

"Waaah! Kagome! Inuyasha came back today and beat me up for wanting to learn how to paint!" Shippo cried. Kagome looked as horror struck as Inuyasha looked enraged. "Shut up you little lier!" Inuyasha shouted giving Shippo a whack on the head. "Owww! Kagome make him stop!" Shippo wailed even louder. "Inuyasa! SIT!" *Wham!* She looked down angrily at the prone hanyou as she scooped Shippo into her arms. She couldn't believe INuyasha would hurt Shippo for wanting to learn. She was also suprised that he had found time as they rarely had left eachothers side for long. 'He must of come back while I was making dinner." Kagome thought.

"Stupid wench! You're going to believe that runt over me?" Inuyasha yelled, hurt clear in his voice, from his place on the ground. That really stung that she could even think that Shippo was more trustworthy than her own mate. Kagome paused unsure. Inuyasha WAS her husband, shouldn't she be able to believe him?. Then Shippo started wailing again. "See look!" Shippo said pointing towards a large number of bumps on his head (Courtasy of Miroku). That did it. "Maybe you should stay out here and think about what you have done." Kagome said before turning on her heels and heading towards their home. Shippo bounced up on Kagome's shoulder and flashed a victorious grin. He then gave INuyasha the rasperry. "YOU BRAT!" Inuyasha shouted pulling himself off the ground and charging towards Shippo. "SIT!" *Wham*

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

"SIT!" Sango looked up from the water. 'Inuyasha and Kagome must be home.' she thought as she got out and started drying herself. Only after she was dry did she realize what this meant. Her eyes widened and the blush returned to her cheeks. "SIT!" There was no mistaking it, they were fighting. "I lost..." she said softly. She looked in the direction of the house. "Miroku.." Shaking such thoughts away Sango dressed and began her journey back to the house. They had nearly finished what remained to be done to the house, but not quite. However, it was still finished enough to sleep in on a cloudless night such as tonight. Sango's face grew a darker red. It probably didn't matter much as she had a feeling she would have trouble sleeping after what was about to happen.She arrived before she realized it and felt her heart flutter as she entered to see Miroku sitting calmly by the fire contemplating something. "Miroku." she said shyly. "May I talk to you outside?"

Miroku nodded and started to stand. Sango slipped back outside to wait as Miroku grabbed his staff.

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

Miroku's pov

"SIT!" Miroku smirked. It appeared that Shippo had done his job properly. 'I won.' he thought. He frowned. It didn't feel as good as he thought it would. He was going to kiss Sango without worry of being beaten into the ground. 'Is this how I want to have a relationship with Sango? Through petty bets and cheating?' he wondered. He chuckled at the irony of the situation. He was finally getting his chance and he started to have doubts. Miroku stared into the nearby fire as he contemplated his problem.

A few minutes (and one sit) later Sango appeared in the doorway. "Miroku." Sango said not looking directly at him.

"May I talk to you outside." With a soft sigh, Miroku made up his mind and stood up to follow. As an after thought he grabbed

his staff before heading outside. He found Sango in a nearby clearing gazing at the grass which, Miroku suspected, was to hide a blush. In the dim moonlight she looked exceptionally beautiful and he couldn't help buy gazing at her for a moment.

In that moment, however, Sango spoke first. "You won." she said softly. Miroku didn't speak, simply nodding solemnly. Taking

a deep breath Sango looked up and quickly closed the distance to him. She paused for only a moment to look into Miroku's eyes, her cheeks aflame, before leaning in. "No," Miroku said softly lifting a hand to catch her by the chin. "Wh-what?" Sango asked feeling a bit confused and more disapointed than she cared to admit. It took all of his will power to go against

his lecherous ways, but he managed to get it out. "You... don't have to if you don't want to." he murmered. Sango's eyes widened. He was actually letting her back out. She certainly hadn't expected that from him. Quiet the opposite actually. She

had thought he would be gloating a little atleast. She was a bit ashamed to realize that was what SHE was going to do if she

had won. But here was Miroku, a gambler and a perverted monk, giving up a chance for a free kiss, as well as an excellent chance for a grope.

"But you won." she argued not truly understanding why. Miroku averted his gaze. "No... I cheated." he admitted. Sango blinked

feely a bit angry now. "You won, I'll start making the meals tommorow." Miroku said releasing her chin and turning to go.

Sango was feeling a mixture of emotions. Anger, disapointment, and also feeling a bit touched at his actions. She acted impulsively not really thinking her actions through as she grabbed him by the arm and pulled him around. A surprised Miroku

allowed himself to be pulled into a kiss. He simply stood there stunned for a moment before coming to his senses and returning it gently. As soon as he did though, Sango pulled away and quickly rushed passed him towards the house her cheeks

almost lighting up the night.

Miroku stood there watching her go as he reached up and touched his lips. A small smile formed. He had most certainly not

expected this. He had expected to perhaps kiss her boomerang after he confessed but certainly not Sango. His smile grew into

a grin. 'Perhaps it would be best if I stayed at Kaede's tonight.' He decided as he turned and made his way towards the village as the rings on his staff clanged together in time with his steps. Miroku was definately one happy monk at the moment.

I'll end it here to put you out of your misery. Anyway I'm sorry it took so long, but exams were this week and I was busy making a website (CHECK IT OUT!!) Anyway make sure you review! ;) Especially you people who asked for more sango/miroku
