AN: Sorry this took so long! I had a really busy two weeks.. Sigh.

Anyways, here's the next chapter!

The Other Use for Big Sleeves.

"You know, I really am going to have a lot of fun with this. It's like an early birthday present. Inu-yasha can't lie. Inu-yasha can't lie! Don't you just love the way that that sounds?" Miroku was in heaven imagining all the ways that he could torture the moping half demon.

"No." Inu-yasha reliplied. Damn it. He knew that he shouldn't have told the monk what was wrong with him

Not like he had any choice though.

"What the hell are you screaming about, Miroku?" Sango said, stepping into the clearing.

"Inu-yasha can't lie!" Miroku exclaimed. Sango looked at him strangely.

"What do you mean, he's trying not to lie to anyone or something?" She asked.

"Nope. He's physically unable to lie." Miroku replied, a big grin across his face. He was so happy that he even forgot to grope Sango, who was within range.

"Well how do you know that?"

"I asked him what he felt about Kagome and he said that he loved her!"

"Wow, you really can't lie can you Inu-yasha?" Sango inquired.

The hanyou was too busy beating Miroku who was futiley trying to defend himself to reply. "You're not supposed to tell anyone, dumb ass! Why don't you just announce it to the whole world next? So they can all go and marvel at the hanyou who can't tell a freaking lie!"

"Oh, I'm not going to tell the whole world." The monk started.

"Well at least there's some good news." Inu-yasha sighed.

"Just Kagome."

"WHAT?! You can't tell KAGOME! That's the worst person that you could've picked-"

"Tell me what?" Kagome asked as she walked into the clearing where her three friends already were.

"That I can't lie." Inu-yasha replied. Damn it.

"Really?" Kagome asked, leaning in to look Inu-yasha in the eyes.

"Really really." Inu-yasha replied sarcastically.

"And he wanted to tell you how he really feels about you." Inu-yasha sent the grinning monk a dangerous grin. "How do you really feel, Inu- yasha?"

Damn that monk. Inu-yasha had to react faster than his mouth did.

So, he did the only thing that he could.

"Inu-yasha, why do you have your sleeve shoved in your mouth?"

"E wuve ou."

"What?"

Sango jumped in, attempting to help the hanyou who was being so viciously picked on. "Nothing! Nothing at all. Come on Inu-yasha. Lets go." She grabbed the hanyou's free sleeve and dragged him out of the clearing.

Once they had gotten out of hearing range, Inu-yasha spat out his soggy sleeve.

"Thanks." He muttered.

"No problem. Do you really love Kagome though?"

Inu-yasha turned pink. "Yeah."

"How do I know that you're not li-right. But you know, you can't hide from her all day."

"I can try." Inu-yasha suddenly had an idea. He pulled out the sword that he had been strapped into his belt the whole time.

"Give this to Miroku, will you? Tell him that it's a little thank you from Inu-yasha. Or even better, slip it next to him while he's sleeping. So he'll be surprised."

"What? Why-I'm not going to ask. I'll do it." Sango took the sword from Inu-yasha.

She noticed he was smiling.

It was a very dangerous smile.
