~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Ch.4 Splish Splash and a...Lech?! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Hey how about a bath?" kagome suggested to the girls.

Before they could answer kagome caught the glint in Miroku's eyes that showed pure giddiness over the suggestion. "And NO miroku you can't come with us!"

"Kagome, how could you suggest such a thing! I am a priest of.."

"Don't kid yourself pervert!"

"They have showers here?" Ayumi asked qiuziclly.

"Showers? What are thosse?" Sango asked. "If your talking about a rain shower then it's gonna take a few days before you get one. And wy would you whant to bathe in the rain? We have streams." She stated matter-a-factly.

"oh, so that's how you guys bathe? In springs?"

kagome giggled at her friends reaction. "Yeah, or a spring or something. It just depends on where we are."

"Cool, lets go!" they said.

"Sure, I'll just grab the towels and suplies." Kagme said while rushing oveer to the huge yellow back pack to pull out her supplies. "Wait up! Oh and Miroku..don't follow! Shippou? Keep an eye on him for me will ya?

"Sure kagome." Shippou replied.

"Miroku just put on his most innocent face and waved them off. Kagome stepped quickly outside but not before giving a warning glare at Miroku and a smile of adoration towards Shippou.

~*~Miroku thinking o.0 ~*~

'Damn, this is too big to miss out on. I've got to find a way to get rid of Shippou. But how? He's too consintrated on this. He's glaring at me for godness sakes! Hummm..I got it!'

~*~Miroku stops thinking ^_~ ~*~

"Hey Shippou, didn't kagome promise to bring you back some candy last time she left?" he stated leaning against the hut wall with his eyes closed so that his emotions wouldn't be seen.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot!" he exclaimed and rushed over to her pack. A split second later he had jumped head first into the bag and had his little feet wigling out from the top of the bag. He continued with his search for about two more minutes until he puased for a moment. Then a muffled "Yay, I found it!" was herd. Shippou popped out with a candy bar alf way in his mouth and a bag full of tootsie rolls. (A/N: my favorit ^_^)

Miroku beamed that kagome actually brught it. 'By the time he's half way through with it he'll be asleep. Then I can get to where I whant to be.'

~*~At the stream~*~

"Wow, this is beautiful!" the three girls awed at the scenery of the stream.

"yeah, the water feels pretty warm too." Sango said while sticking her foot in the wateer to test the temperature.

"Well? What are we waiting for? Lets get in!" kagome exclaimed.

They all took off their clothes and slummped into the warm, hair rasing water with a relaxed "ah!" They gigled at each others reactions.

"I can't believe you never told us about this second lifee of yours kagome." Yuka chidded.

"Yeah! Were of at school doing homework and you're here having the time of your life!"

"It's not like that you guys! Were always fighing demons and not to mention were always getting injuries, especially Inuyasha."

"Kagome is right. We are always fighting demons and constantly getting hurt." Sango said while turning around to show them her scar she got when she first met Naraku. "This was the cause of Naraku when he possesed my younger brother and sent him after me." She continued and turned back around with a sad yet distant look In her eyes .

"Were so sorry Sango!" Eri said while hugging the girl. Almost with tears in her eyes.

"It was your little brother? How sad." Ayumi said.

"We're here for you Sango!" Yuka declared.

"Thank You." Sango said a little startled at how friendly they are.

Kagome smiled at her friends kindness towards the exterminator and saw that Sango's found three new friends. "Still you guys. I don't think it's a good idea for you guys to be here, I don't whant any thing happening to you guys."

"Don't worry about it kagome. I mean how much trouble can you get in only a few days?" Ayumi asked.

Kagome looked at Sango with a perplexed stare. "Are you sirious?" she asked.

"I guess not." They all blinked at each other and then broke out laughing. "Any ways, what's up with that Miroku guy, he's a sirious perv isn't he?"

Sango snapped instantly snapped at the mention of Miroku. "Damn right he's a perv. That idiot has no self respect! He walks around groping anything with a chest and an ass! Not to mention he askes them all to bare his child!" By now she had a red face, her nuckles were turning white from how tight she was holding her fists and a red aura was being amitted from her.

Yuka, Ayumi, and Eri backed from the angered girl.

"ya know Sango? Why don't you tell us how you really feel about Miroku? I've always know that's not how you really felt about him." Kagome said in a matter-of-fact tone of voice.

~*~Back at the hut~*~

"Just like I thought. Half way through and out like kagome's light stick thingie." (A/N: flashlight ^_~) he said while checking to make sure that the over stuffed, chocolate covered kit was actually asleep. "Good, now that he's got his fill, it's time for me to get mine. Hehehe." He said with a huge smile and stepped out the hut.

"Where are yee going?" came keade's voice.

Miroku froze on the spot. "uhh.I ..uhmm..i'm going to go find I-Inuyasha." He stuttered but qiuckly covered it with his most innocent smile.

"Alright then." She said glaring at him knowing exactly what he was up to but decided not say anything because she knew he would deny it and get smacked real good for it later on.

Miroku walked off with a victorious smile on. ~*~Back at the stream~*~

Sango blinked stupidly at them, then glard at kagome and blushed deeply at the same time. "I could say the same about you and Inuyasha, kagome!" she retorted at the girl who also sarted blushing as much as the girl was infront of her.

~*~Miroku~*~ (A/N: were going back a little ^_^)

miroku had climbed up a tree that leaned right over the stream the girls were. He crouched behind a few leaves while sitting on a branch right over their heads.

"Ya know Sango? Why don't you tell us how you really feel about Miroku? I've always know that's not how you really feel about him." Miroku herd Kagome's voice from below.

"Me?! There talking abot me?!" he whispered to himself. He leaned in further to hear what Sango's response was.

"I could say the same about you and Inuyasha, kagome!" Sango yelled back.

"Oh come on you guys! Why don't you both tell us how you feel about Inuyasha and Miroku?" came the voice of the one girl Miroku remembered as Ayumi. Then he herd Kagome and Sango sigh.

"Alright, but only if Kagome goes first. Oh, and do me a favor and throw a rock over into the bushes to make sure that none of them are spying on us." He herd Sango's voice say and thanked the heavens that he decided to climb a tree.

"Sure." Yuka picked up a few rocks and threw them into different places into the bushes. "Nope, no ones there."

"Alright then." Kagome sighed.

"I guess I do like him but I highly doubt that he likes me back. I mean, I know he likes me because if he didn't he wouldn't get all jealous. But I don't think it's moree than a 'friend'like. Ya know what I mean?"

"I think boh you and him are in denial. I siriously think he cares for you more than that! Especially the way I saw him blush today. I've only just met him but through some of the stories Shippou has told me, e seems to care a lot about you." Eri said while scrubbing her hair with the flower scented shampoo.

"Denial?! I'm not in denial! I can't help it if he's still hung over kikyou and feels..." she trailed off realizing that she just mentioned the one person she didn't whant her friends to find out about.

"So that's who she is? This kikyou person is his ex?" Yuka asked and kagome noded rying to hold back tears.

"Don't mention it to Inuyasha though. He'll freak!" she said and began to let out her tears.

"It's okay kagome, you'll get hrough this." Sango said in her sweetest voice.

"Yeah, why don't you tell us exactly how you feel about the whole thing. You already hold in too much, you should let some of it out." Eri said.

Kagome sobbed harder. Then she began to pour everything out. She told them how it hurt everytime she saw them together, she told them the whole story behind Inuyasha and Kikyou, and down to how she felt about being her reincarnation. By the time she was done all four girls had the same expression of pitty for their friend and anger towards kikyou. Not to mention they were thinking something along the lin of 'why doesn't the skank just die!'

After sobbing for a few more minutes kagome spoke up with a determined expression on her face. "I love him, but I can't force him to choose me. But that doesn't mean I'm giving up on him."

"That's the right way Kagome!" they chered her on.

Miroku was practicly slobering on their heads. He had a front view of evrything. He especially couldn't take his eyes off Sango. "wow she's beautiful!" he whispered to himself while leaning in closer to the edge of the branch. "I always thought kagome liked and cared about Inuyasha, but love? Lucky dog. I don't get it. What does he have that I don't ?...maybe it's the ears? Oh, whatever."

"Well" kagome said with a little sniffle. "Enough about me. It's your turn Sango. Tell us how you feel about Miroku already!" Sango couldn't help the blush that was rising from her neck to the roots of her hair. She had almost forgot about that.

At that comment Miroku perked up and leaned even closer to the already close edge of the branch to hear songo's turn of the conversation.

"Well he can be such a lech sometimes!"

Miroku sighed. 'I thought so.' He mentally kicked himself for thinking that she would actually loved him.

"But he can be really nice sometimes. There've been times where I actually feel like..."

She was abrutally cut off by the sound off wood cracking and a spit second later a giant "SPLASH" was herd.

A gaint wave of water had splashed all over the panciking girls standing in the water. They were looking down into the water trying to see past the rising bubbles at what just fell inbetween them.

Miroku surfaced gasping for air and trying to figure out what happened after he herd that cracking sound.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Was the next thing he herd and it hit him hard at what just happened. He fell right in betwwen the girls and the only thought process he could make was 'oh shit I'm in trouble!'

"Miroku you dirty basterd!!" came Sango's voice.

"You pervert!!" kagome yelled at him.

Miroku finally wiped his bangs out of his eyes just in time to see Sango reach for her giant boomerang and swim in his direction. At that he shrieked and rushed to the bank to get himself out of the water while practiclly tripping over himself In his haste.

Inuyasha who had herd the girls screaming rushed over to see what was up. But instead of seeing a demon attacking them he got he sight of a whole lot of 'women' who were trying to keep decent. Worst of all he couldn't keep himself from googling at kagome (0.o) who glared at him and threw her shoe smack dab in the middle of his forehead. Followed by a whole lot more shrieks and objects.

"You idoits!!" Ayumi yelld.

"Get out now!!" Eri screamed.

"I'm gonna kill you guys!!" Yuka shrieked.

"MIROKU..I..PROMISE...YOU...THAT...YOU...WILL.. NEVER...BE...ABLE...TO...HAVE...CHILDREN!!!!" Sango yelled while throwing something at them between every word.

"I'm sorry!" came Miroku's voice. "ow..Sango..ah...ouch!"

"I didn't do anything!!" Inuyasha yelled at them for being pelted by bath supplies. "ow..hey..watch it bitch!"

"Whatever! Now go away you pervs!" kagome screamed at them and threw a full bottle of shampoo at Miroku's head. (A/N: GO KAGOME!! ^_~)

The boys sped up but not before Inuyasha tripped on a hair brash, fell face first, and scurried off on hands and knees. And Miroku had Sango's gaint boomerang nearly hit his head.

After they were out of sight they all sighed. - . -; "We are gonna kill them!" They declared I unison.
