How do you like me now? – Chapter 3

"Okay, run this by me once again." Miroku said, strumming Inu Yasha's favorite guitar.

"Here's the deal. I'm going to write Kagome's number on the football field, along with a little note. Then I'll let it slip that I was the one to do it. She'll have to recognize me then." Inu Yasha proclaimed triumphantly.

"She'll notice you all right. Notice how disturbing you are." The violet-eyed young man replied, "Besides…how do you plan on getting Kagome's cell number?"

"Easily. Sango's her best friend, right?" A nod came from Miroku. "Then you'll just get it from her."

"M-me?" His voice came out as more of a squeak than anything. "You can't be serious."

Inu Yasha grinned evilly and began playing his red electric guitar, completely ignoring his best friend's pleas.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

A pretty brown-haired, teenaged girl smiled at her reflection in the mirror. A simple pale rose sundress adorned her curvaceous body. The only make-up she wore was her favorite magenta eye shadow and pink lip-gloss, which she was applying when her cell rang. She smiled at the name on her caller ID. Kago-chan.

"Kago-chan!" she squealed, "How are you?"

"San-chan, I'm great. How are you?" Kagome said, twirling a lock of black hair with her finger.

"I have another date tonight with Miroku." Sango replied, albeit without too much enthusiasm.

"Did I just hear you right? You're going out with the biggest hentai in the school?" Kagome's chocolate eyes were wide with shock.

"He's been asking me out since fifth grade, and I took pity on him." Sango explained, "Miroku does have a few good qualities. He bought me my favorite flowers and a box of my favorite sweets."

"How did he know what to get you?"

"Because he asked my brother Kohaku."

"Oh." Kagome felt that was the only thing fitting to say. In the background she heard a doorbell ringing. "Must be Miroku, hm?"

"Yeah, I'll call you when I get back Kago-chan."

"I look forward to it, San-chan. Bye."

"Bye."

Sango raced down stairs holding her sandals in her hands to keep from tripping on the way down. As she reached the bottom step she heard the front door open. Cursing mentally for forgetting her brother was home and for making herself hurry; she walked into the living room. There was Miroku, talking with Kohaku. He looked very handsome in his pleated khaki pants and blue shirt. Miroku looked up when he heard Sango approach.

"Hello my dearest Sango." He greeted smoothly. "I was just talking with your wonderful younger brother."

"So I see." Sango said, and walked over to Kohaku. "Dad's going to be a little late tonight, so it'll just be you for a while. I want you to behave yourself, eat the rest of the ice cream in the carton and I hid a soda in the back of the refrigerator. Love you."

He smiled and hugged her. Sango returned the hug and kissed his forehead. "Love you too, sis. You have a good time with Miroku."

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Miroku and Sango just finished enjoying a wonderful dinner at Sango's favorite Thai restaurant; not to mention that Miroku hadn't done anything perverted. He had been the perfect gentleman: pulling out her chair, letting her order first, he had even made sure they were on the riverside so Sango could enjoy the view. Plus he was paying.

Surprise, surprise. Sango thought to herself and smiled, He's actually really sweet.

"Hm?" The violet-eyed young man inquired at her smile.

"Oh, nothing really. I was just thinking that this is the best date I've had in a while." She smirked, "You haven't said or done anything perverted. Its nice."

"Dearest Sango…that brings joy to my heart and a smile onto my face to hear such words." Miroku answered poetically. "I'm glad you liked it. I'd hope you would."

"Miroku, this is more then I ever expected! I wouldn't mind going on another date like this." Sango blushed.

"Do you have my number yet? I have yours, but next time I want to let you decide where we go, and this way you can call whenever you think of the place." Miroku motioned towards her cell, "I'll program it for you."

"Sure." She handed him her phone and tell him program his number.

Unbeknownst to Sango, Miroku was doing more than just programming his number. He also looked up Kagome's number, and memorized it instantly. Thank the Gods he had a good memory when it came to numbers.

"There. The tab is paid and I should be getting you back home before your dad has a fit." He smiled.

"You're right." She agreed.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Inu Yasha's cell rang. And rang. And rang. Grumbling he rolled over and picked it up. "What the hell do you want?" he growled.

"Well! If you're going to be that way I won't tell you what I've got…" Miroku said, tantalizingly.

"Crap…please tell me you got Kagome's number." Inu Yasha was wide-awake now.

"You got it. It was as easy as taking candy from a baby." He paused, "Wait…that's a stupid statement. Taking candy from a baby is damn hard."

Inu Yasha growled again, "Just tell me the answer."

"Fine it's…"
