A/N: Ok, just to point something out. The only time I ever see Inuyasha is on Cartoon Network when they get new episodes. I'm to poor to get anything imported or anything in local stores for that matter. The only reason I know Sango and Miroku are supposed to end up together is from fanfics and fangirls on websites like this. I don't have the money to buy the manga either. Plus, the whole point of fanfiction is to write the story out like you'd like it. It's no longer what really happens, it's MY story and it goes how I want it to. Another thing. . .the friggin summary says it's a Mir/OC that means NO MIROKU/SANGO!!! If you only like Mir/San then don't read, have some common sense!! Plus, though it didn't happen this way, it could have because I have a strong conviction that Miroku was not a virgin when he joined the group. Thank you.

Miroku had tears in his lavendar eyes. He looked pitiful and helpless, like a lost child, with his knees curled up to his chin while he was sitting on the ground. All the others had figured he and the girl, that had yet to introduce herself, needed sometime alone.
"Would you like to hold him?" Shaylin asked softly.
Miroku just nodded and moved so that he was sitting cross legged. She handed him the baby and just stepped back.
"Hi Naoko. I'm. . .I'm your father." he said, almost choking on the last word. He couldn't hold back the flood of tears. His body was rocked by sobs as he held the boy to his chest gently. Shaylin sat next to him.
"It's ok Miroku. If you no longer wish to help me. It was as much my fault as yours. I said yes. . ."
"No, he is my child and I will help to raise him. My father. . .I have a real reason now to find Naraku and kill him. So that I can live to see my child grow up, like my father didn't."
"Your friends. . .they seemed rather upset with me."
"They'll live Shay, they'll accept it. I'd like you to stay with a friend of mine who is a miko. She's and older lady but it's safe. I don't want you or Naoko in danger. . ." he started but Shaylin cut him off by placing a finger to his mouth.
"I'll leave Naoko there but I will not let you do this alone. Not only is your life at stake, but so is his because if you fail then he will inherit your wind tunnel."
Miroku nodded without a complaint, he knew her to well to argue over something like that. He placed the baby boy back into his mother's arms and stood up. He wiped his eyes on the sleeve of his robe and just held out his hand.
"Miroku what. . ."
"Shh, Shaylin I have to introduce you to my friends. And let them know we have to go back to the village to see Lady Kaede. But before . ." he trailed off here.
"Before what?"
"I was in love with someone, and now that you are here I must tell you about her. And I must tell you I did not love you when. . .when Naoko was. . .created."
"I know that. I didn't love you either. You were my best friend then, but I just wanted a child, someone like me, who was not full human but not full demon either."
"All I wanted was a child as well but now that I love her. . ."
"It's ok if you are with her and not me. We don't have to get married."
"No. I will not have my son grow up in a home where his father and mother are not married and do not love each other. So if you don't mind I would like to get married to you, and I would like to have the oppurtunity to fall in love with you. But not until after I tell her."
"I understand. Which of the girls is she? The one that talked or not?"
"The one that didn't. The one that left early. She loves me too and it hurt her greatly to find out I have a child by someone else."
"Have you been with her?"
"No I haven't. And that hurt her as well. So I'll introduce you to my other friends and then I'll talk to her alone."
"Ok. If you insist, you will always have the option to be with her instead of me."
"I know."

Miroku led Shaylin up to the rest of the group, "Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippou, this is Shaylin. She is half cat demon and the mother of my son."
Shaylin smiled nervously, especially at Inuyasha who was regaurding her with angry stares, not hurting her only because of Kagome's beads and his friendship with Miroku. She ran her long, clawed fingers through dark blond, striped orange hair. Her pointed ears became visable when she tucked a few stray pieces behind them.
"She's a cat Miroku. . ." Inuyasha growled.
"And you're a dog. I expect you to get along. She will be helpful in our quest." Miroku replied sternly.
"She also has a jewel shard in her tail." Kagome said calmly.
"I do, it keeps me from turning full demon." she replied.
"Get to know each other. Lady Kagome, please keep him under control. Sit down next to the fire Shay, I have to go speak with Sango." Miroku said walking off to find her.
Shippou then went into a barage of questions about the baby and Kagome kept the situation light hearted while Miroku was gone. Inuyasha simply sulked and said nothing.

A/N: A previous review is now being used to torture Miroku, Sango is helplessly tied up by the same review. Don't Flame! Just Review, if you don't have constructive criticism (ie: intelligent suggestions) don't even push the button.
