Chapter 13
Sango looked over at Miroku quizzically wondering where he was planning on taking her. She stopped abruptly not wanting to go any further without knowing where she was headed. "Miroku, what's going on? Where is it exactly you're taking me?"
"Sorry Sango but the truth is I'm not really sure. I just wanted to get out of that house and talk with you. I just really want to be with you right now. Is that alright?" He looked at Sango with a pair of sad puppy dog eyes, a tinge of pain very evident.
She nodded seeing that he had good intentions. "Yeah it's fine don't worry about it. Here, we can just go to the park. That sound alright with you?"
He smiled grateful for her time. "Yeah that's perfect. Let's go." He grasped his hand tightly with hers and forced a smile.
Sango noticed his attempts to look cheerful when he was far from it. How far she didn't know but was determined to find out. "Miroku, why do you always try to force your emotions? It's pretty obvious you're not happy."
He bit his lip slightly frustrated with Sango's statement. "I guess because bad things seem to follow me around. Instead of letting the bad things drag me down I try to be happy and smile if possible. After all, tomorrow is a new day."
Sango rolled her eyes. She knew he was lying, there had to be more to it than that. "You're a horrible liar Miroku." She smiled guessing her statement would surprise him. "I can see right through your little deceptions. You're not as clever as you think you know. You're not a transparent person, you're very deep."
He ogled her curiously wondering if she was planning something. "Am I now? I wouldn't have thought. Sango, there's not much to me I'm an easy book to read."
"So you say Miroku, but looks can be quite deceiving." She grinned thinking she was starting to get the better of him. 'I'll figure you out yet Miroku. All these secrets you're hiding behind those lips, I'm bringing them out with each kiss. You can't hide forever I'll find the real you eventually.'
Miroku wasn't sure how to answer her question and fumbled around in his mind for something to say. 'Distraction. I need a distraction. Damn Sango, she's too clever for her own good.' He looked around the landscape hoping something came to mind, he smiled when he saw the park coming in view and let out a sigh of relief. 'Perfect.' "Hey Sango, there's the park lets go find somewhere quiet to sit and talk."
She agreed reluctantly, her plans failed yet again. 'You're pretty clever Miroku but this is far from over.' She noticed a tall oak tree that was just off set of some picnic tables and looked perfect for a private conversation. "Over there, by that large oak tree that'll be perfect."
He smiled, happy she didn't bring him up him changing the subject. 'Good, I'm safe. For now.' The couple slowly made their way over to the large tree, an awkward silence between the two as they walked. Miroku stiffened as he positioned himself under the tree with Sango brushing up beside him. 'All these things to tell her. It's just so overwhelming.' He sighed as he tried to get his thoughts together.
Sango noticed Miroku's uneasiness and frowned slightly, feeling bad that she had made him so uncomfortable. She turned to him, looking deep into his lavender eyes. "Are you alright? You're so on edge and seem very uncomfortable about something. What's wrong Miroku?"
He turned from her gaze and looked out at the view before him. "Everything and absolutely nothing. There are so many good and bad things happening to me at once I don't even know if I'm okay or not. Should I be? My own emotions seem to be a mystery even to myself. There are so many things happening at once, it's all so unreal."
She slid her hand over and held it over Miroku's. She moved closer and rested herself on his shoulders. "Right now, what are you feeling?"
Sango's sudden closeness sent chills up Miroku's spine, he knew something was going to happen but he didn't know what. "Right now, I'm feeling afraid. I have deep feelings for you and I'm afraid of losing you." Miroku shuddered, remembering his parent's and Mushin's tragic ends. 'There was so much blood it was so terrifying, so painful.' A small tear rolled down Miroku's face, he made no attempt to wipe it away. He was deep in his own memories.
Sango noticed the tear and reached over and wiped it away with her free hand. "Miroku please tell me what's bothering you. I really want to know. When I see you like this it brings tears to my eyes."
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Sango ever since the first day I met you I felt something towards you. When you're around me I feel like I can do anything and make it through hard times no matter what. Last night when I kissed you I felt something I've never felt before in my life. I know now I have feelings for you that wont go away. I can't get your face out of my mind, everything about you I aspire."
Miroku opened his eyes and looked at Sango affectionately. "I love you." He sniffled and smiled lightly. "I really mean it, your what makes me believe I'm not alone, Sango." He leaned over and kissed her gently on the lips.
The feeling of Miroku's lips on her own made Sango go weak in the knees. Ever since he had said he loved her she wanted to be with him now more than ever. She pulled his face in closer to hers wanting to go deeper into the kiss.
Miroku fell on top of Sango not expecting her forwardness but continued with the kiss. His hands brushed through her hair as Sango played about with his tongue sending a wave of pleasure through him.
A warm sensation radiated through Sango as Miroku lay on top of her kissing her madly. She loved the feeling of his hands stroking through her hair. She latched her arms around Miroku and slowly began to sit up. Every second passing drawing her deeper and deeper into him. Every fiber of her body screamed to feel his tender affection.
Miroku's arms adjusted to Sango hold as they slowly crept around to her back. He moved his hands vividly up and down each time they entered each other's mouths and pulled back quickly for air. He had no intention of stopping and neither did Sango. He smiled and licked the roof of Sango's mouth.
She immediately reacted to this gesture and lunged forward, her tongue sliding deep down Miroku's mouth nearly into his throat. She pulled back knowing he needed to breath quickly.
Miroku fell backwards reeling from what Sango had just done but he quickly felt Sango's body now lying on top of him. He ran his hand down her face softly feeling every groove and every mark on it. "Soft as an angel's skin."
She threw her arms over him holding him tightly to her, never wanting to let him go, ever. "Miroku. I love you. Let's just stay like this, I don't think my body will let me move any time soon."
He ran his hand briskly up Sango's face, through her hair, and down her back. Keeping it there for a moment and rubbing softly as she slowly melted in his arms. 'This is paradise. And I never want to leave it.'
The need to be held close to Miroku had been met and Sango felt extremely satisfied. She let out a deep breath and continued holding Miroku close to her, just like a little kid not wanting to loose a favorite possession. "So now, are you going to be alright? Where does it end and begin?"
"My fears and doubts about you end here but sadly my worries about other things are only growing." Miroku intensified his rub on Sango's back as the matter plagued his mind. "I don't have anywhere I can go. Where I'm staying concerns me most at the moment."
"I see." She could sense Miroku's tenseness by the way he had been rubbing her back. She pulled one of her arms from her embrace over him and held her hand to his face. The back rub had slowed down as Miroku began to feel more comfortable. "This a problem but there are several solutions. You could always stay with me for another night or two." She looked at him hopefully, wondering if he'd take her offer seriously.
Miroku removed her hand from his face and gathered her up in his arms. "For the time being I'd love that. Although your father may not like it. But it's afterwards that concerns me the most."
She rubbed her chin thoughtfully and a bright smile quickly appeared on her face. "I bet you could stay with Inuyasha! He lives with his older brother Sesshomaru and I doubt he'd really care if you'd stay there with them and just paid rent or something. I know there's a way. Things will work out you'll see." She gave him a brilliant smile, full of hope and joyfulness.
Miroku smiled brightly, a true smile. He moved in for another kiss not holding back for a second. He licked the outside of Sango's mouth and slowly moved in, licking every inch of the inside of her mouth. The feeling was amazing he could only hope Sango felt the same.
Sango felt even better than Miroku, she was starting to get light headed. Her tongue tangled up with Miroku's as more pleasurable feelings pulsated through her. She rolled over on her side wanting to get more comfortable. She drew her tongue out of his mouth for a moment to draw in a quick breath. She smiled seeing how happy he looked and took her fingers and gently traced them around his lips slowly, savoring the moment. His warm breath seethed over her face causing her to shiver. Her tongue slipped back into his mouth anticipating Miroku's next move. His tongue pressed up against hers as he pushed it forward sending a wave of pleasure through her. She let out a small moan, unable to control her emotions.
Hearing Sango's small moan surprised Miroku and greatly pleased him. He pulled his tongue out of her mouth for a second and brushed the stray hairs back out of her eyes. "I want to see those gorgeous eyes looking at me, they're too pretty to hide behind your hair." He slipped his arms under hers and drew her into him, leaving no space between them. He leaned over and began gently kissing her forehead and slowly worked his way down, wanting to make to make it painfully slow for her, so that she was begging for more by the time he had finished.
Sango dug her hands tightly into Miroku's back as he continued to leave a soft trail of kisses down her face to the bottom of her neck. She whimpered silently and could feel her hand tugging away at his shirt. She couldn't stop herself from trying to pull his shirt up over his shoulders. The mood was perfect and they were both feeling incredible. Miroku stopped his pleasurable torture when he realized his bare stomach was exposed and his shirt was half way pulled off of him. "Sango?"
She blushed madly realizing what she had done and pulled herself away and turned her head from his soft gaze. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I just got so caught up in the moment I wasn't thinking straight." She looked down at her feet; her face was on fire once she had gotten her head back together.
Miroku frowned and looked down at his own feet. "I see. I'm sorry Sango, I would have let you go through with it but." He drew in a deep breathing gathering the courage he desperately needed to tell her what had to be said. "But. I'm ashamed of all these scars carved into my body. People like you shouldn't ever lay their eyes on something as dreadful as me."
A pitied look spread across her face when she saw how distraught he was over the matter. "Miroku, there isn't a single person in this world who doesn't carry scars with them, visible or otherwise. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside it's the inside that really matters." She inched closer to him as she attempted to give him comfort.
He sighed, noticing her advancement on him. "Sango your words are kind but not true. All these cuts all over my body remind me everyday of what sort of person I' am. They show the ugliness I keep deep inside myself."
She shook her head furiously, a few stray tears falling down her face. "Don't say that! It's the sort of person you are that matters to me." She scooted over and held him tightly, like a mother giving reassurance to her son. She whispered silently in his ear, "I love you so don't forget it."
A warm feeling filled Miroku as Sango's reassurance gave him hope that he was wrong about himself. "If you really mean it. Then I'll show you just be open and honest with me about it. I can't stand it when people lie." He pulled his shirt up over his arms slowly revealing all the cuts that were on his body. By the time he had the entire shirt off Sango was speechless. He looked sadly at her knowing what was going through her head. "Your silence says it all." He motioned to pull the shirt back over himself but was stopped by Sango.
Her eyes looked pleadingly at him and he dropped the shirt back to the ground. "Miroku I didn't mean to gawk at you, it's just I feel awful. You're a wonderful person and to see you so hurt like this makes my heart ache." She could feel the tears stinging in her eyes but she didn't try to hold them back she let them glide down her face unashamed of them. She reached towards him slowly wanting to feel his cuts. "Can I touch them?"
Miroku's eyes widened as his voice quieted. "Sa. Sango." He drew in small shallow breaths as he felt her hand come closer and closer to him. His heart beat faster as the soft tips of her fingers graced his skin. He lost his breath the instant he felt her warm hand on his body. 'I can't breath it's too much, I'm suffocating. She's suffocating me.' He winced as he felt her hand move upwards tracing one of his more serious lacerations up his arm.
Sango could feel his body tense in her arms and became more determined to bring him condolence. She breathed down his neck as her hands tenderly ran up his arms. "Just relax, you're alright. Just let the pain wash over you let me take it all away." She smiled as she felt his body lax more into her arms.
The warm feeling of Sango's hot breath burning down his back loosened him as her fingers worked magic over his previous wounds. The soft tender motion of her hand slowly withered away Miroku' s bitterness. The pain was still there but more and more it began to leave him, slowly his heart was being healed. As the soft touches continued Sango's other hand slipped over to his right wrist. He jumped a moment but felt calm sensing Sango closer to him.
She leaned into him deeper, her chest pressed up against his back. She continued rubbing him lovingly bringing him to a deeper level of calm and relaxation. "Miroku thank you, for letting me share this with you. I know I can't take back all the agony you must feel, but I do want to lessen your pain. Just remember I'm always with you. You aren't alone anymore you have me, and my heart." The rubbing stopped as she re-positioned herself in front of Miroku. "I."
Miroku leaned over and kissed her softly on the lips and pulled back. "I'll remember that. Always." He leaned closer ready to finish what they had started before.
Kagome grasped Inuyasha's hand tightly as they walked together through the park. The sun was about to go down and they were looking for a spot to watch the sunrise together. She blushed as Inuyasha strengthened his hold over Kagome's hand. "Inuyasha." She turned to him curiously, her face still red.
He smiled gingerly at her not knowing what she was blushing about. "Don't be so shy Kagome it's just us, we're not at school or anything. So just relax and we can enjoy each other's company."
Kagome tilted her head and rested it on Inuyasha's shoulders. "You're a completely different person outside of school. Why is that? More people would like you if they knew your tender side."
He shrugged not putting much thought into her words. "People who deserve my kindness will receive it. I can't just open up to anyone I don't want to be that vulnerable. I save my soft side for people I really care about." He gazed at her lovingly urging her to get closer.
His gaze didn't falter as Kagome stopped walking and kissed him gently on the lips. She pulled back and smiled sweetly at him. "I think I like keeping the tender Inuyasha to myself." She winked at him her emotions making her feel giddy inside.
Inuyasha could only grin; being with Kagome did give him a warm fuzzy feeling even if he'd never admit it to anyone. "Kagome I know a little spot over by the picnic tables we could sit and watch the sunrise. Come on lets go, I'll race you." Inuyasha quickly ran off not giving her any time to respond.
"No fair Inuyasha!" Kagome stormed off after him giggling all the way. She felt like a grade school student again, so care free and happy. By the time she caught up with him he was staring blankly over at something. She studied his facial expression and could tell he looked surprised about something. "Inuyasha what is it?"
His finger twitched as he pointed over to the large oak tree where Sango and Miroku were. Sango was kissing Miroku passionately while his hands were moving vividly up and down her back and through her hair. "They're. They're."
Kagome finished his sentence also stunned. "They're making out. Here of all places." She looked a little closer and noticed Miroku's shirt wasn't even on, she turned nearly ten shades of red. "Inuyasha look! Miroku doesn't even have a shirt on!"
He nodded as he watched the two continue with their kiss.kisses. "Kagome I think we better find somewhere else to watch the sunset. This is too much for me."
She nodded quickly wanting to escape the embarrassing moment between the two friends. "Yeah lets get out of here. We can um. Talk to them later. Much later."
The two walked away quickly not wanting to stir up a whole bunch of noise. They looked back for a moment and kept going wanting to get as far away as possible.
Both Sango and Miroku pulled back from each other and caught a breather. They sat silently with nothing but grins covering their faces.
Miroku pulled his shirt back on and positioned Sango in his lap. His arms wrapped around her waist and her head lay on the crook of his neck. They looked out at the sunset with the beautiful shades of oranges, yellows, and pinks scattered about the sky. He kissed her neck and whispered silently just enough for her to hear the words, "I love you, always."
She nodded and closed her eyes everything was peaceful and silent. Having Miroku close to her brought her great peace as her eyes struggled to stay open. She looked up at Miroku and gave him an exhausted smile. "I hate to tell you this but I think I'm going to fall asleep any minute."
He shrugged. "It's not a big deal don't strain yourself to stay awake. Sango?" He looked down at her, her eyes were closed and she was sleeping soundly. He smiled and stroked her face gently. "Sleep well Sango." He stood up with her in her in his arms and slowly began walking out of the park.

A warm feeling filled Miroku as Sango's reassurance gave him hope that he was wrong about himself. "If you really mean it. Then I'll show you just be open and honest with me about it. I can't stand it when people lie." He pulled his shirt up over his arms slowly revealing all the cuts that were on his body. By the time he had the entire shirt off Sango was speechless. He looked sadly at her knowing what was going through her head. "Your silence says it all." He motioned to pull the shirt back over himself but was stopped by Sango.
Her eyes looked pleadingly at him and he dropped the shirt back to the ground. "Miroku I didn't mean to gawk at you, it's just I feel awful. You're a wonderful person and to see you so hurt like this makes my heart ache." She could feel the tears stinging in her eyes but she didn't try to hold them back she let them glide down her face unashamed of them. She reached towards him slowly wanting to feel his cuts. "Can I touch them?"
Miroku's eyes widened as his voice quieted. "Sa. Sango." He drew in small shallow breaths as he felt her hand come closer and closer to him. His heart beat faster as the soft tips of her fingers graced his skin. He lost his breath the instant he felt her warm hand on his body. 'I can't breath it's too much, I'm suffocating. She's suffocating me.' He winced as he felt her hand move upwards tracing one of his more serious lacerations up his arm.
Sango could feel his body tense in her arms and became more determined to bring him condolence. She breathed down his neck as her hands tenderly ran up his arms. "Just relax, you're alright. Just let the pain wash over you let me take it all away." She smiled as she felt his body lax more into her arms.
The warm feeling of Sango's hot breath burning down his back loosened him as her fingers worked magic over his previous wounds. The soft tender motion of her hand slowly withered away Miroku' s bitterness. The pain was still there but more and more it began to leave him, slowly his heart was being healed. As the soft touches continued Sango's other hand slipped over to his right wrist. He jumped a moment but felt calm sensing Sango closer to him.
She leaned into him deeper, her chest pressed up against his back. She continued rubbing him lovingly bringing him to a deeper level of calm and relaxation. "Miroku thank you, for letting me share this with you. I know I can't take back all the agony you must feel, but I do want to lessen your pain. Just remember I'm always with you. You aren't alone anymore you have me, and my heart." The rubbing stopped as she re-positioned herself in front of Miroku. "I."
Miroku leaned over and kissed her softly on the lips and pulled back. "I'll remember that. Always." He leaned closer ready to finish what they had started before.
Kagome grasped Inuyasha's hand tightly as they walked together through the park. The sun was about to go down and they were looking for a spot to watch the sunrise together. She blushed as Inuyasha strengthened his hold over Kagome's hand. "Inuyasha." She turned to him curiously, her face still red.
He smiled gingerly at her not knowing what she was blushing about. "Don't be so shy Kagome it's just us, we're not at school or anything. So just relax and we can enjoy each other's company."
Kagome tilted her head and rested it on Inuyasha's shoulders. "You're a completely different person outside of school. Why is that? More people would like you if they knew your tender side."
He shrugged not putting much thought into her words. "People who deserve my kindness will receive it. I can't just open up to anyone I don't want to be that vulnerable. I save my soft side for people I really care about." He gazed at her lovingly urging her to get closer.
His gaze didn't falter as Kagome stopped walking and kissed him gently on the lips. She pulled back and smiled sweetly at him. "I think I like keeping the tender Inuyasha to myself." She winked at him her emotions making her feel giddy inside.
Inuyasha could only grin; being with Kagome did give him a warm fuzzy feeling even if he'd never admit it to anyone. "Kagome I know a little spot over by the picnic tables we could sit and watch the sunrise. Come on lets go, I'll race you." Inuyasha quickly ran off not giving her any time to respond.
"No fair Inuyasha!" Kagome stormed off after him giggling all the way. She felt like a grade school student again, so care free and happy. By the time she caught up with him he was staring blankly over at something. She studied his facial expression and could tell he looked surprised about something. "Inuyasha what is it?"
His finger twitched as he pointed over to the large oak tree where Sango and Miroku were. Sango was kissing Miroku passionately while his hands were moving vividly up and down her back and through her hair. "They're. They're."
Kagome finished his sentence also stunned. "They're making out. Here of all places." She looked a little closer and noticed Miroku's shirt wasn't even on, she turned nearly ten shades of red. "Inuyasha look! Miroku doesn't even have a shirt on!"
He nodded as he watched the two continue with their kiss.kisses. "Kagome I think we better find somewhere else to watch the sunset. This is too much for me."
She nodded quickly wanting to escape the embarrassing moment between the two friends. "Yeah lets get out of here. We can um. Talk to them later. Much later."
The two walked away quickly not wanting to stir up a whole bunch of noise. They looked back for a moment and kept going wanting to get as far away as possible.
Both Sango and Miroku pulled back from each other and caught a breather. They sat silently with nothing but grins covering their faces.
Miroku pulled his shirt back on and positioned Sango in his lap. His arms wrapped around her waist and her head lay on the crook of his neck. They looked out at the sunset with the beautiful shades of oranges, yellows, and pinks scattered about the sky. He kissed her neck and whispered silently just enough for her to hear the words, "I love you, always."
She nodded and closed her eyes everything was peaceful and silent. Having Miroku close to her brought her great peace as her eyes struggled to stay open. She looked up at Miroku and gave him an exhausted smile. "I hate to tell you this but I think I'm going to fall asleep any minute."
He shrugged. "It's not a big deal don't strain yourself to stay awake. Sango?" He looked down at her, her eyes were closed and she was sleeping soundly. He smiled and stroked her face gently. "Sleep well Sango." He stood up with her in her in his arms and slowly began walking out of the park.
