Chapter Three: An Interrupted Private Conversation
The sun has broken the horizon and InuYasha wakes from the tree he slept in by the stream. He wakes to see Sango yelling at Miroku as she finally pushes him into the stream drenching him. She walks back to where they had camped satisfied.
Miroku sighs softly aloud as he rises to his feet, "What I'd do for your love, Sango."
"Humph, not going to succeed that way!" InuYasha states as he jumps down from his perch onto the rocky shoreline.
"You saw all that, did you?" Miroku asked as he removed himself from the stream.
"Yep and ya know what? You're not going to get a girl like Sango by allowing her to push you around!" InuYasha snapped. "She's a demon hunter! She needs someone that she knows can protect her, a man!"
"Uh! InuYasha, she knows I can fight," Miroku sighs.
"Fighting's not everything! Geesh, a guy's got to be able fend and make decisions for himself, ya know?" InuYasha scolds.
"Huh, InuYasha?" Kagome whispers to herself as she stops then jumps behind a bush to listen in on what InuYasha and Miroku are talking about.
"InuYasha, I see what you mean but." Miroku mumbles.
"You better see this 'cause Sango's going to slip out of your fingers if you keep up what you're doing!" InuYasha snapped sharply. "You say you love her then prove it to her!"
"Like you have to Kagome?" Miroku replied wittily with a slight sarcastic tone.
"Uh! Hey, but I-I!" InuYasha stammered unsure of what he should say.
"What does Miroku mean by that?" Kagome asked herself aloud as she peered over the bushes dumbfounded by the conversation.
"Eh, what are you doing over there?!" InuYasha interrogated at the sight of Kagome's puzzled face.
"Oh, I-um!" she stuttered trying to find the words to explain why she was hiding behind the bushes.
"How long were you there, Kagome?" Miroku asked.
"About when InuYasha said 'fighting isn't everything,'" she replied as she turned to InuYasha then cocked her head still puzzled.
"Eh, you mean you heard-? Way to go, Miroku!" he said as he gave his monk companion an evil stare.
"What?" Kagome asked. "You guys are so strange. Oh, what did you mean by 'like you have to Kagome', Miroku?"
"Well, I meant-I, um," he stammered unsure of how to put what he said differently so that the half demon beside him wouldn't kill him.
"You shouldn't be spying on us anyway so can't we have a private conversation between men here?" InuYasha stated before Miroku found something to say.
"Well, I just want to know, okay?" she scolded.
"As you would say 'it's none of your business!'" InuYasha snapped slyly.
"Uh, that's not fair!" she cried as she stomped her foot in aggravation.
"I might have considered letting you in if you had just walked in instead of hiding behind those bushes!" he scolded with a stern look on his face.
"Humph, fine don't tell me! I don't care anyway," she replied as she turned and walked away angry with them and their conversation.
"Then why'd you persist so much?" Miroku sighed softly thinking she wouldn't catch it yet so that InuYasha would.
"That's easy why! She's a conniving bitch and has to know everything 'cause she wouldn't be doing her job if she didn't but in! Hmm, uh!" InuYasha stated knowledgeably as he crossed his arms then saw Kagome standing in the center of the path giving him a cold stare. "Shit."
"Sit boy, sit!" she yelled as she pointed downward then he slammed down onto the stony shore, leaving his mark.
"Didn't you see her standing there?" Miroku asked then sighed, shaking his head.
"You knew she was there and you didn't warn me?!" InuYasha scolded as he lay in his hole, but still able to lift his head to yell at the puzzled monk.
"Umm," Miroku uttered as he scratched his head.
"Err," InuYasha growled.
