~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Ch. 8 Leave The Dares To The Crazy School Girls ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha looked at the four who grinned back at him, with a deep suspicoin.
Kagome pailed a little. Knowing her crazy friends they where going to do something that she really wouldn't like. Everytime she played truth or dare with her friends they would stick her with some crazy and emberacing dare or if she picked truth she'd probably have to admit to something and she had a bad feeling that they where planning on matching her up. They had done the same thing with her and Hojo and it had turned out so horrible that she vowed to never play it again.
"NO!" she said firmly when her friends where about to say something else.
Inuyasha looked at her and his curiousity instantly took a leap at what this 'truth or dare' thing was. Kagome's face had pailed and she had the look in her eyes that looked like dred and fear.
"Truth or dare? Whats that?" he asked. Kagome eyes had snapped back to his and looked at him like he was crazy. Now he definetly had to find out what this 'truth or dare' thing was if it could make Kagome that scard and panicked.
"glad you asked." Eri said still grinning mischivously at the two. "how about I explain it as we walk along."
Inuyasha just nodded and glanced back at kagome who now looked panicked like trying to find a away out of this.
Miroku and Sango who were listening in had also gotten curious about this so called game and walked over to them so they could find out more.
Kagome had finally gotten out of her skocked and panicked state and turned to the girls and Inuyasha. " Do we have to play that boring game? I'm mean we should rally be concentrating on finding a place to stay right Inuyasha?" she looked at him trying her best to hide her panicking state and hoping that he would think that finding a place was more important than a game and go along with the search.
Inuyasha didn't miss the look in her eyes and smirked as he looked up at the sun that was setting. "I don't know sounds interesting to me. We have sometime before the sun completely sets."
Kagome gaped at him. She had been almost positive that he would've gone along with searching for a place to stay. He must of seen right through her when she tried to disgiuse her worry. He was just doing it to get to her. Kagome huffed, turned around and started walking again and tried her best to stay as much away from them as possible. The rest surounded them and listened in.
"It's very simple." Yuka said. "but you have to have a whole lot of guts to play this game and you can't have no shame."
Inuyasha 'feh'd'. "then this is going to be way to easy, I'll be the winner for sure." He said with his usual cocky atitude.
"Confident are we? We'll I doubt you'll last very long Inuyasha." Eri said.
"I can handle anything you throw at me. I got pleny of guts."
"yeah yeah whatever Inuyasha. now how do you play?" Sango said pretty irritaited at his rambling.
"Okay, it's like this, ask you 'truth or dare?' . If you choose dare you have to do what I dare to do and if you can't go through with it you, don't play and we go on until only one stands." Ayumi said.
"Well what if you choose truth?" Miroku asked asked.
"Well if you choose truth then we ask you a question and if you can't answer then your out and we keep on playing." Yuka continued.
"Sounds easy enough, can we ask anybody?" Shippou asked.
"yep, any one you want and any thing goes." Eri said.
Miroku turned to Sango and grinned mischivously. Sango just glared back at him.
Kagome had been trying her best to drone out the sounds of their conversation as she walked ahead of them. 'there's no way I'm going to play. There freakin crazy if they think there going to drag me into this game. No way no how, I am not going to play. How did they drag me into it last time any ways? Doesn't matter, I'm never going to play that darn game.' She thought when she spotted an opening.
"Hey Inuyasha I think I found a place to stay." She said pointing over to the opening.
Inuyasha sniffed the air and glanced back at her. "I guess, there's a spring near by so I guess we can camp ot here." He said. "you giong to play or what?" he asked to see what kind of reaction he'd get out of her.
"No way!" she said glaring back at him and walked off to set up camp.
"how about we play it after we set up camp?" Ayumi suggested. Every one else nodded.
~*~
Five minutes later they were all sitting aroung the camp site and ready to play.
"oh, I wanna go first please!" Shippou asked thoroughly excited over playing a new game.
"um, okay then ask someone truth or dare." Ayumi said.
"Inuasha...truth or dare?" he said grinning evily at the hanyou.
Inuyasha had already expected the kit to go straight to him since he had been grinning at him strangly the whole time they were seting up camp. "Dare !" he responded with high confidence.
"I dare you to.. Hit yourself over the head for all those time you hit me. "
everyone else laughed at his dare and he glard at the kit. "what?! are you crazy, no way!"
"if you back out Inuyasha you'll be out and loose the game." Eri said knowing that he was too stuborn to back out of something like this.
"well Inuyasha, looks like the kit got you in that one." Miroku said.
Inuyasha growled at him and turned to the kit. The game sirously wasn't going in his favor like he hoped. "Fine, I swear you'll regret this shippou." he said and bonked himself on the head. He was so angry at his dare and concentrating on how to kill shippou afterwords that he didn't even realize that he was actually putting some force behind his strike and left himself with an egg the sive of a quarter sticking out of his head.
Every one cracked up adnd laughing at his expence. "Laugh it off already! It's my turn!" he said and turned towards Kagome.
Kagome pailed when he turned to her with a weird grin that freaked her out. "I-I told you, I'm n-not playing." She stuttered slightly trying to keep her composure.
"Whats wrong Kagome?" he asked. "you scared ?" he teased. "or is it that you don't have enough guts to play the game before you even get your dare?" he continued.
He knew he was getting to her and he wanted to find out why she refused to play the game.
"I'm not scared!" she retorted. "Plus, even if I did play who said I was choosing dare?" she said with a smug grin.
Ayumi had intended on teasing Kagome into playing the game but Inuyasha was already doing a fine job himself so she decided to lend him a hand with something she knew Kagome wouldn't resist. "Hum.looks to me like Kagome is chickening out. Wouldn't you say girls?" she said turning to Yuka and Eri who in return nodded their heads.
Kagome was left completely shocked at her friends thinking of her in such a way. She imiedatly pulled herself together and stuck on a major scawl. "I never chicken out, not from a petty game like this and I have all the guts I need to win this game!" she said in a huff and scooted closer to them so she could join into the circle they had formed around the fire.
She got into a comfortable position and glared up at Inuyasha. "Truth!" she barked at him. Inuyasha just smiled back.
He moved closer to her and looked her straight in the eye. "What's really going on between you and that Hoho git?" he asked not losing eye contact. Everyone whent silent and listened in for her response.
Kagome blushed firously and was completely startled by his question. Not only that he was getting even closer to her face with out even knowing he was doing so. "N-Nothing." She stuttered. "I-I don't like Hojo like that, I-I only think of him as a friend." She continued hoping that he would back away just a little before something happens. Not that she minded if that 'something' happens, she just whanted it to mean something when it did and not just an accident.
'she better not lie to me.' He thought. 'I don't smell anything that would make her seem like she's lieing. I see sincerety in her eyes..those eyes.. those big blue eyes... those big blue pretty eyes...those big blue pretty and..um...not lieing.so close.eyes..uh .'
Miroku coughed in his hand to bring the hayou back from his gazing.
Inuyasha sat straight up and blushed a deep shade of crimson. "Um.uh.." He struggled with his words. "She's uh.n-not lieing." He said trying to hide the fat the he had been gazing into her eyes.
Kagome was no better than he was and was trying to bring her blush down to a controlable level. Until it comes to that level she was only able to respond with one answer. "humph!"
Everyone else started laughing at their friends antics and the fact that everyone there could see that they clearly liked each other except for themselves.
She finally gained control of herself and and looked up at her friends who were still laughing. "alright already! It's my turn." She said and grinned evily at all of them scanning them to see who was going to be her next victum.
Her eyes landed on Ayumi, one of the causes of her latest embaresment. "Ayumiiii!" she said in a sing song voice and grinned at her friend. "Truth or dare?" she asked her friend. To Kagome, revenge was going to be sweet.
Ayumi saw the look in her friend's eyes and saw that this wasn't going to be good since Kagome was known to be brutal with dares. But Ayumi being a truth or dare champ a few times before when they played wasn't about to back out of this one, especially since it was her first time being asked during the game.
Ayumi put on her best game face and stared right back at Kagome. "Dare!" she said.
"I Dare you to go into those bushes and take off your underwear, put them on your head and sit the rest of the game with them on." She said grinning like a mainiac.
Everyone gasped and stared at Kagome in shock, save Ayumi, Eri and Yuka since they knew something like this would be coming from Kagome. Ayumi never dropped the eye contact while Eri and Yuka started giggling.
"K-Kagome? don't you think that's a little extreme?" Sango asked laughing nervously and rubbing the back of her head.
Before Kagome could respond Ayumi stood up. "Fair enough kagome, you got your revenge but don't think I'll go easy on you when it's my turn." She said and walked off into the bush.
The others still sat wide eyed and staring at Kagome. "what?" she asked.
"Well Kagome-sama I never thought that you would suggest such a thing." Miroku said with a light laugh.
"That's nothing. You should see her back home, she would put people through embaresment and she's a champ at the game." Yuka bragged on her friend. Kagome just blushed and turned away. Before she could say anything else Ayumi came out from behind the bushes followed by a stream of full blast laughter.
Ayumi stood there with her arms crossed over her chest and a deep blush and waited for the laughter to die down. Once they had nearly stopped with the exception of a few giggles she sat down.
Miroku eyed her head and spoke his thoughts. "Ayumi I must ask what kind of undergarments are those? Thy look more like strings." The string he was refering to was of course her thong. Ayumi blushed and was at a loss for words.
"your world is fuckin screwy you know that?! Do you use such things too Kagome? you human women are strange. How do you wear string as undergarments?" Inuyasha rambled while digging a grave for himself.
Kagome glared at him. "it's not weird to wear such things in my time Inuyasha! it's called a thong and it's used to keep your normal underwear from being seen when you wear really tight pants." She said while starting to blush at her own explanation.
"I still think it's fucked up and weird." He said and puased for a moment in thought. "What do you wear anyways?" he asked, which to him seemed like a totally inocent question.
Kagome's eyes widened and she glared at him for his indecent question. "Hentia!! sit!!" she yelled and Inuyasha was eating dirt a split second later.
This lit up a whole new batch of questions that where already stiring up in Miroku's head and unfortunetly he asked one of the most indecent one swimming aroung in his walnut sized head. "Doesn't it hurt?" he asked and instantly came across Sango's over grown boomerang.
"Your so perverted Miroku!"Sango yelled at him.
At the moment Inuyasha had gotten back up and glared at Kagome. "Whats wrong with you bitch?! It was only a question! I didn't mean it like that!"
Kagome glared right back at him. "You don't ask girls those kind of questions you idiot!!"
Shippou was on his side and laughing his little head off along with Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi who was also in a fit of giggles at seeing both guys getting what they deserved from Sango and Kagome.
Miroku sat up and gave Sango a hurt look. "It was only a question Sango, I really didn't mean it like that either." He said giving her a big pupy pout.
"Yeah, sure houshi and I'm not Sango I'm Sesshomaru." She said sarcasticly and rolled her eyes.
"Okay you guys, come on lets give the subject a rest, it's my turn any ways so lets see.." Ayumi said putting a hand to her chin in deep thought.
She smiled and looked over at Sango. Sango instantly sat straight up and pailed. "what?" she said with panick clearly herd in her voice.
"Truth or dare Sango?" she asked.
"Hey wait, didn't you say that you weren't going to be easy on me when it came to your turn?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah but I'll wait till next time, right now I got something for Sango." she said and turned towards sango.
"Well?" she asked Sango.
"um.uh.I guess..I'll choose... dare." She said.
"Hum I dare you to.." She had been pretending to put thought into it but she already had everything planned out from the beginning. "sit in Miroku's lap for the rest of the game and no smacking him." She said with a huge grin plastered across her face.
At first Sango's first reaction was to turn as white as a ghost and her eyes became as huge as headlights. Then she glared at Ayumi. "what?!! Are you crazy, what kind of girl do you think I am?!! I can't sit in that perverts lap! I'll get herassed!!" she said even moe panicked than before.
"You're the one who chose dare. You either go with it or forfiet the game. It's your choice." Ayumi said with a smile that would of blinded everyone if they weren't already staring At Sango for her response.
Miroku on the other hand felt like he was in heaven. He had on the goofiest smile you could think of and was looking down at Sango who was sitting to his right. "Well Sango dearest are going to drop out or are you going to take the most comtorable seat in the house?" he said grinning hugely at her.
Sango rolled her eyes. "I am so going to regret this."
If possible, Miroku's grin got even bigger.
"I swear, I might not be able to hit you during the game but I promise that if try to take one shot at me during the game you won't have any hands tomorrow morning." She said and glared at him.
Miroku gave her his most innocent smile. "Sango, you know I'm not that kind of a man. I am a monk and have the up-most respect for you." He said.
"Whatever Miroku." she said and sat down in his lap. She was taken by surprise when he didn't take a shot at her the second she had sat down but had just wrapped his arms around her and brought her up against his chest. Her heart started pounding at feeling his arms wrap around her and she had no idea why she was feeling like that. All she knew was that she felt safe and right. She was totally confused.
Everyone laughed at her expression. Sango could feel her cheeks warm and she looked at them laughing at her when she spotted Inuyasha who was still snickering and looking at her like he knew something she didn't. he stuck his hand in his kimono over his chest and lifted his hands up and down at a fast pase as if showing the beating of a heart. He obviously herd her heart and she thanked God that no one else was ablt to hear her and no one else saw him demenstrate her current state. She looked up at Miroku's eyes as if asking him why he hadn't done anything else, but he just smiled at her. "it's your turn Sango." he said when he leaned down to whisper in her ear sending a shiver down her spine.
Everyone was watching the scene and snickering to themselves. Ayumi at the moment was feeling pretty proud of herself and inwordly congradulated herself for achieving her goal.
Sango took a deep breathe and tried controling her emotion to put them behind her and move on with the game. She exhaled when she finally set her confused thoughts aside and thought about who to ask. She looked up at miroku and grinned.
"Truth or dare Miroku?" she said.
Miroku wasn't too surprised that she had chosen him but he had a feeling that if he chose dare he wasn't going to like it. So he whent with next best thing. "Truth."
Sango pouted since she whanted to put him through some kind of embaresment. "your no fun." She said and crossed her arms over her chest.
"knowing you my dear Sango, your idea of fun would be my idea of a nightmare." He said while smiling at her and tightning his grip as if she was a possesion of his. Sango had gone right back to the confused thoughts.
'why is he holding me like that. It's almost like he's afraid of loosing me. What's going on? Why is he being so.so..sweet?could he actually be taking my threat sirously? The Miroku I know would have taken a shot the second he had a chance. And why I'm I feeling this way?! I hat not being able to understand!' she was cut off from her thoughts when shippou jumped into her lap and wavd his hand in her face to see if he could bring her back.
Sango looked down at shippou and blushed knowing that she had lost herself in thought about Miroku.
"You Okay Sango?" shippou asked. "your turning a little pink. Maybe you should lay down."
Sango blushed a little harder. "No.uh. thanks I'm fine." She said and looked up at Miroku. "Okay Miroku, I have a question for you and need an honest answer." Her expression had changed into one of determination and she had looked him striaght into the eyes.
Miroku nodded his head. "Of course my dear Sango. Ask away." He said cheerfully.
"Why do you constantly grope women?" she asked. The snickers that were still going on from the last dare had stopped like someone had turned off the lights and they all turned to Miroku for his response.
Miroku bit his lips and scrunched his eye brows in thought while holding his chin with his cursed hand. Sango sweat dropped. 'he actaully has to think abot why he gropes women. He's more dence than I thought.'
Miroku then smiled at her. "It's not me I swear! It's my hand it's possesed!" he said pointing to his hand.
"MIROKU!" Sango glared at him and gave him her warning tone.
"Alright, alright, if you really must know it's because it's just me and I don't know how to get rid of such a habit, I've had since I was little and I've always been this way." He said and sighed while slumping his shoulders.
Part of it was true it was a habit and he didn't know how to get rid of it mostly because he never really tried and also because he was a man and any man was attracted to a nice figured women. He had no true control over what he does since it was pure instinct. But deep down he had always found Sango attractive and he sort of let himself do 'things' through instinct to make her jelious. Maybe he was crazy or something but he really didn't mind getting hit over and over again because to him any contact with her seemed like bliss. Especially now since he was able to hold her close to him, in which he, at the moment, instinctively tightened his grip, with out getting hit. But it just sort of bothered him that she wasn't there by will.
Sango didn't really know what to think about his response but just as she started to form a striagh thought she felt him tighten his grip and all her thoughts scattered once again along with acceleration of her heart. Again that feeling of safety and protection and just feeling right came back but this time it felt a little stronger and she felt her body go weak. She looked up at him and he gave a weak smile and wondered himself if she axcepted his answer. Sango smiled back up at him to show she excepted his answer for now and couldn't help but practiclly slump into his chest and cuddle just enough that he wouldn't recognize. Sango felt pretty much weird doing all this and was still trying to figure out unknown emotions that going through her but she put them aside for the feeeling of comfort.
'she excepted my answer? Wow, and she didn't even glare at me. She actually smiled. I like to see her smile. What the.? Did she just cuddle into me? Nah.she's probably just getting into a comfortable position. But this just gets better and better.' He thought and smiled and looked out at the others.
Shippou looked confused at the scene and Inuyasha had a look between discust and amusement. The girls on the other hand had glazed stary eyed look to them and if you looked hard enough you could practiclly see stars in the background with floating hearts and quipid flying all over the place.
Sango was out in a trans of thought but brought herself out just in time to see the look in Kagome's and her new friends eyes.
The next thing she knew a big heart felt "aw" was herd from the girls.
"what?" Sango asked when the girls looked at her.
"You know Sango you look pretty comftorable there in your monks lap." Yuka said and wiggled her eye brows mischivously.
Sango blushed but still stood up to her own defense. "He's not my monk and who said I was comftorable?" she retorted.
"Don't kid youeself girl, you look like your in heaven with your glazed over eyes." Eri said and did an imatation of her looking all stary eyed and looking of into the distance in thought.
"I do not look like that!!" she yelled.
Inuyasha at the moment felt it apropriet to interfear and do his own immatation of Sango.
"no way Sango was more like 'Oh Miroku I LOVE you so much! I would LOVE to bear your child!'" Inuyasha had put on his most fiminen voice and did the worst imatation of Sango possible while stressing the word love both times. Not to mention a mestup giggle to top it off.
Sango had reached her limit for holding in the frustration and Miroku who senced her anger tried desperatly to back away from her as he could with out pushing her off his lap.
Sango picked up the nearest thing which happened to Ayumi's shoe and luanched it at Inuyasha getting hit smack dap in between the eyes.
Inuyasha fell over with swirly eyes and had one foot up in the air that twitched.
Sango let out a "humph" in satisfaction.
Miroku let out a sigh of relief and instead of putting his arms directly around her he just rested them on his sides until she had completely calmed down.
"Don't push me Inuaysha! Your warning is the same as miroku's. Another coment from you and you won't have a mouth to speak with tomorrow." She said and glared at him. Inuyasha just glared back and went to go sit back down next to kagome.
They all decided to drop the subject before Sango really whent crazy or turned perminantly red from her embaresment. "Um..Okay then Miroku it's your turn." Eri said and looked at him.

"Confident are we? We'll I doubt you'll last very long Inuyasha." Eri said.
"I can handle anything you throw at me. I got pleny of guts."
"yeah yeah whatever Inuyasha. now how do you play?" Sango said pretty irritaited at his rambling.
"Okay, it's like this, ask you 'truth or dare?' . If you choose dare you have to do what I dare to do and if you can't go through with it you, don't play and we go on until only one stands." Ayumi said.

Kagome blushed firously and was completely startled by his question. Not only that he was getting even closer to her face with out even knowing he was doing so. "N-Nothing." She stuttered. "I-I don't like Hojo like that, I-I only think of him as a friend." She continued hoping that he would back away just a little before something happens. Not that she minded if that 'something' happens, she just whanted it to mean something when it did and not just an accident.
'she better not lie to me.' He thought. 'I don't smell anything that would make her seem like she's lieing. I see sincerety in her eyes..those eyes.. those big blue eyes... those big blue pretty eyes...those big blue pretty and..um...not lieing.so close.eyes..uh .'
Miroku coughed in his hand to bring the hayou back from his gazing.
Inuyasha sat straight up and blushed a deep shade of crimson. "Um.uh.." He struggled with his words. "She's uh.n-not lieing." He said trying to hide the fat the he had been gazing into her eyes.
Kagome was no better than he was and was trying to bring her blush down to a controlable level. Until it comes to that level she was only able to respond with one answer. "humph!"
Everyone else started laughing at their friends antics and the fact that everyone there could see that they clearly liked each other except for themselves.
She finally gained control of herself and and looked up at her friends who were still laughing. "alright already! It's my turn." She said and grinned evily at all of them scanning them to see who was going to be her next victum.
Her eyes landed on Ayumi, one of the causes of her latest embaresment. "Ayumiiii!" she said in a sing song voice and grinned at her friend. "Truth or dare?" she asked her friend. To Kagome, revenge was going to be sweet.
Ayumi saw the look in her friend's eyes and saw that this wasn't going to be good since Kagome was known to be brutal with dares. But Ayumi being a truth or dare champ a few times before when they played wasn't about to back out of this one, especially since it was her first time being asked during the game.
Ayumi put on her best game face and stared right back at Kagome. "Dare!" she said.
"I Dare you to go into those bushes and take off your underwear, put them on your head and sit the rest of the game with them on." She said grinning like a mainiac.
Everyone gasped and stared at Kagome in shock, save Ayumi, Eri and Yuka since they knew something like this would be coming from Kagome. Ayumi never dropped the eye contact while Eri and Yuka started giggling.
"K-Kagome? don't you think that's a little extreme?" Sango asked laughing nervously and rubbing the back of her head.
Before Kagome could respond Ayumi stood up. "Fair enough kagome, you got your revenge but don't think I'll go easy on you when it's my turn." She said and walked off into the bush.
The others still sat wide eyed and staring at Kagome. "what?" she asked.
"Well Kagome-sama I never thought that you would suggest such a thing." Miroku said with a light laugh.
"That's nothing. You should see her back home, she would put people through embaresment and she's a champ at the game." Yuka bragged on her friend. Kagome just blushed and turned away. Before she could say anything else Ayumi came out from behind the bushes followed by a stream of full blast laughter.
Ayumi stood there with her arms crossed over her chest and a deep blush and waited for the laughter to die down. Once they had nearly stopped with the exception of a few giggles she sat down.
Miroku eyed her head and spoke his thoughts. "Ayumi I must ask what kind of undergarments are those? Thy look more like strings." The string he was refering to was of course her thong. Ayumi blushed and was at a loss for words.
"your world is fuckin screwy you know that?! Do you use such things too Kagome? you human women are strange. How do you wear string as undergarments?" Inuyasha rambled while digging a grave for himself.
Kagome glared at him. "it's not weird to wear such things in my time Inuyasha! it's called a thong and it's used to keep your normal underwear from being seen when you wear really tight pants." She said while starting to blush at her own explanation.
"I still think it's fucked up and weird." He said and puased for a moment in thought. "What do you wear anyways?" he asked, which to him seemed like a totally inocent question.
Kagome's eyes widened and she glared at him for his indecent question. "Hentia!! sit!!" she yelled and Inuyasha was eating dirt a split second later.
This lit up a whole new batch of questions that where already stiring up in Miroku's head and unfortunetly he asked one of the most indecent one swimming aroung in his walnut sized head. "Doesn't it hurt?" he asked and instantly came across Sango's over grown boomerang.
"Your so perverted Miroku!"Sango yelled at him.
At the moment Inuyasha had gotten back up and glared at Kagome. "Whats wrong with you bitch?! It was only a question! I didn't mean it like that!"
Kagome glared right back at him. "You don't ask girls those kind of questions you idiot!!"
Shippou was on his side and laughing his little head off along with Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi who was also in a fit of giggles at seeing both guys getting what they deserved from Sango and Kagome.
Miroku sat up and gave Sango a hurt look. "It was only a question Sango, I really didn't mean it like that either." He said giving her a big pupy pout.
"Yeah, sure houshi and I'm not Sango I'm Sesshomaru." She said sarcasticly and rolled her eyes.
"Okay you guys, come on lets give the subject a rest, it's my turn any ways so lets see.." Ayumi said putting a hand to her chin in deep thought.
She smiled and looked over at Sango. Sango instantly sat straight up and pailed. "what?" she said with panick clearly herd in her voice.
"Truth or dare Sango?" she asked.
"Hey wait, didn't you say that you weren't going to be easy on me when it came to your turn?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah but I'll wait till next time, right now I got something for Sango." she said and turned towards sango.
"Well?" she asked Sango.
"um.uh.I guess..I'll choose... dare." She said.
"Hum I dare you to.." She had been pretending to put thought into it but she already had everything planned out from the beginning. "sit in Miroku's lap for the rest of the game and no smacking him." She said with a huge grin plastered across her face.
At first Sango's first reaction was to turn as white as a ghost and her eyes became as huge as headlights. Then she glared at Ayumi. "what?!! Are you crazy, what kind of girl do you think I am?!! I can't sit in that perverts lap! I'll get herassed!!" she said even moe panicked than before.
"You're the one who chose dare. You either go with it or forfiet the game. It's your choice." Ayumi said with a smile that would of blinded everyone if they weren't already staring At Sango for her response.
Miroku on the other hand felt like he was in heaven. He had on the goofiest smile you could think of and was looking down at Sango who was sitting to his right. "Well Sango dearest are going to drop out or are you going to take the most comtorable seat in the house?" he said grinning hugely at her.
Sango rolled her eyes. "I am so going to regret this."
If possible, Miroku's grin got even bigger.
"I swear, I might not be able to hit you during the game but I promise that if try to take one shot at me during the game you won't have any hands tomorrow morning." She said and glared at him.
Miroku gave her his most innocent smile. "Sango, you know I'm not that kind of a man. I am a monk and have the up-most respect for you." He said.
"Whatever Miroku." she said and sat down in his lap. She was taken by surprise when he didn't take a shot at her the second she had sat down but had just wrapped his arms around her and brought her up against his chest. Her heart started pounding at feeling his arms wrap around her and she had no idea why she was feeling like that. All she knew was that she felt safe and right. She was totally confused.
Everyone laughed at her expression. Sango could feel her cheeks warm and she looked at them laughing at her when she spotted Inuyasha who was still snickering and looking at her like he knew something she didn't. he stuck his hand in his kimono over his chest and lifted his hands up and down at a fast pase as if showing the beating of a heart. He obviously herd her heart and she thanked God that no one else was ablt to hear her and no one else saw him demenstrate her current state. She looked up at Miroku's eyes as if asking him why he hadn't done anything else, but he just smiled at her. "it's your turn Sango." he said when he leaned down to whisper in her ear sending a shiver down her spine.
Everyone was watching the scene and snickering to themselves. Ayumi at the moment was feeling pretty proud of herself and inwordly congradulated herself for achieving her goal.
Sango took a deep breathe and tried controling her emotion to put them behind her and move on with the game. She exhaled when she finally set her confused thoughts aside and thought about who to ask. She looked up at miroku and grinned.
"Truth or dare Miroku?" she said.
Miroku wasn't too surprised that she had chosen him but he had a feeling that if he chose dare he wasn't going to like it. So he whent with next best thing. "Truth."
Sango pouted since she whanted to put him through some kind of embaresment. "your no fun." She said and crossed her arms over her chest.
"knowing you my dear Sango, your idea of fun would be my idea of a nightmare." He said while smiling at her and tightning his grip as if she was a possesion of his. Sango had gone right back to the confused thoughts.
'why is he holding me like that. It's almost like he's afraid of loosing me. What's going on? Why is he being so.so..sweet?could he actually be taking my threat sirously? The Miroku I know would have taken a shot the second he had a chance. And why I'm I feeling this way?! I hat not being able to understand!' she was cut off from her thoughts when shippou jumped into her lap and wavd his hand in her face to see if he could bring her back.
Sango looked down at shippou and blushed knowing that she had lost herself in thought about Miroku.
"You Okay Sango?" shippou asked. "your turning a little pink. Maybe you should lay down."
Sango blushed a little harder. "No.uh. thanks I'm fine." She said and looked up at Miroku. "Okay Miroku, I have a question for you and need an honest answer." Her expression had changed into one of determination and she had looked him striaght into the eyes.
Miroku nodded his head. "Of course my dear Sango. Ask away." He said cheerfully.
"Why do you constantly grope women?" she asked. The snickers that were still going on from the last dare had stopped like someone had turned off the lights and they all turned to Miroku for his response.
Miroku bit his lips and scrunched his eye brows in thought while holding his chin with his cursed hand. Sango sweat dropped. 'he actaully has to think abot why he gropes women. He's more dence than I thought.'
Miroku then smiled at her. "It's not me I swear! It's my hand it's possesed!" he said pointing to his hand.
"MIROKU!" Sango glared at him and gave him her warning tone.
"Alright, alright, if you really must know it's because it's just me and I don't know how to get rid of such a habit, I've had since I was little and I've always been this way." He said and sighed while slumping his shoulders.
Part of it was true it was a habit and he didn't know how to get rid of it mostly because he never really tried and also because he was a man and any man was attracted to a nice figured women. He had no true control over what he does since it was pure instinct. But deep down he had always found Sango attractive and he sort of let himself do 'things' through instinct to make her jelious. Maybe he was crazy or something but he really didn't mind getting hit over and over again because to him any contact with her seemed like bliss. Especially now since he was able to hold her close to him, in which he, at the moment, instinctively tightened his grip, with out getting hit. But it just sort of bothered him that she wasn't there by will.
Sango didn't really know what to think about his response but just as she started to form a striagh thought she felt him tighten his grip and all her thoughts scattered once again along with acceleration of her heart. Again that feeling of safety and protection and just feeling right came back but this time it felt a little stronger and she felt her body go weak. She looked up at him and he gave a weak smile and wondered himself if she axcepted his answer. Sango smiled back up at him to show she excepted his answer for now and couldn't help but practiclly slump into his chest and cuddle just enough that he wouldn't recognize. Sango felt pretty much weird doing all this and was still trying to figure out unknown emotions that going through her but she put them aside for the feeeling of comfort.
'she excepted my answer? Wow, and she didn't even glare at me. She actually smiled. I like to see her smile. What the.? Did she just cuddle into me? Nah.she's probably just getting into a comfortable position. But this just gets better and better.' He thought and smiled and looked out at the others.
Shippou looked confused at the scene and Inuyasha had a look between discust and amusement. The girls on the other hand had glazed stary eyed look to them and if you looked hard enough you could practiclly see stars in the background with floating hearts and quipid flying all over the place.
Sango was out in a trans of thought but brought herself out just in time to see the look in Kagome's and her new friends eyes.
The next thing she knew a big heart felt "aw" was herd from the girls.
"what?" Sango asked when the girls looked at her.
"You know Sango you look pretty comftorable there in your monks lap." Yuka said and wiggled her eye brows mischivously.
Sango blushed but still stood up to her own defense. "He's not my monk and who said I was comftorable?" she retorted.
"Don't kid youeself girl, you look like your in heaven with your glazed over eyes." Eri said and did an imatation of her looking all stary eyed and looking of into the distance in thought.
"I do not look like that!!" she yelled.
Inuyasha at the moment felt it apropriet to interfear and do his own immatation of Sango.
"no way Sango was more like 'Oh Miroku I LOVE you so much! I would LOVE to bear your child!'" Inuyasha had put on his most fiminen voice and did the worst imatation of Sango possible while stressing the word love both times. Not to mention a mestup giggle to top it off.
Sango had reached her limit for holding in the frustration and Miroku who senced her anger tried desperatly to back away from her as he could with out pushing her off his lap.
Sango picked up the nearest thing which happened to Ayumi's shoe and luanched it at Inuyasha getting hit smack dap in between the eyes.
Inuyasha fell over with swirly eyes and had one foot up in the air that twitched.
Sango let out a "humph" in satisfaction.
Miroku let out a sigh of relief and instead of putting his arms directly around her he just rested them on his sides until she had completely calmed down.
"Don't push me Inuaysha! Your warning is the same as miroku's. Another coment from you and you won't have a mouth to speak with tomorrow." She said and glared at him. Inuyasha just glared back and went to go sit back down next to kagome.
They all decided to drop the subject before Sango really whent crazy or turned perminantly red from her embaresment. "Um..Okay then Miroku it's your turn." Eri said and looked at him.
