Disclaimer: (Sorry I forgot to put this on the first chapter) I do not own the Inuyasha crew, but I do own Shawn/Shanko and Harashi.

Sorry about the last chapter. I tried to only post the first chapter, but I am new at this and accidentally put everything on there. So here is the rest of Chapter 4.

Chapter 4 continued

"Strange," agreed Inuyasha.

Suddenly Shawn and Inuyasha heard the snap of a twig breaking behind Inuyasha.

"What was that?" asked Shawn as Inuyasha turned to face the noise. He put his arm out in front of Shawn protectively. Without realizing it Shawn placed her hand on his arm as his body tensed and his hand went to the hilt of his sword.

"Come out!" he challenged. Then a jackrabbit scampered out of a bush and looked at them before scurrying away. They both relaxed.

"I'm betting we looked really stupid," said Shawn.

"Probably," agreed Inuyasha. He turned around to face her, 'How did we get so close?' he thought. They were chest to chest.

Shawn sucked in her breath, 'What's he doing she thought?' she thought, 'Is he-?'

Inuyasha stared into Shawn's brown eyes. She tilted her face slightly upward and returned his gaze. They slowly moved even closer to each other and Inuyasha put his arms around her as if to embrace her. They were so close now; so very close, almost nose to nose.

"What are you two doing?" asked a male voice from behind them. They sprang away from each other faster than the jackrabbit could have. One second they pressed together and next, standing 10 feet apart.

"Nothing!" the answered in unison.

"Yeah right," said Miroku, smirking, "What was happening?"

"None of your business, perv!" said Inuyasha, fists clenched. Why did he always get caught with her?

"Do you really want to know Miroku?" Shawn said coolly, picking up a stone.

'What???? She isn't going to say anything is she???" Inuyasha was mortified.

"Because if it's just eating you up inside not knowing," she continued in her cool voice. Then she threw the stone with all her might, "Then it sucks to be you!" she said hotly as the stone collided with Miroku's stomach. He doubled over in pain. Inuyasha tried to hold back bursts of laughter.

"What was that for?" gasped Miroku.

Shawn walked over and crouched slightly so that she was eye-level with Miroku, "Next time someone tells you that it's none of you business, butt out," as she walked back over to the cover of trees she called, not even turning around, "Good night boys."

Finally when Inuyasha had controlled his laughter and Miroku had gotten over the pain in his stomach they began to walk back to the trees together, "That girl is gonna kill me," said Miroku.

"Only if you deserve it," said Inuyasha as they passed under the trees. Shawn was already asleep again. Her hair was out of its ponytail and it was spread about her in a way that made her appear like a goddess. At least to Inuyasha, 'OK,' he thought, 'Maybe I am falling in live with her.'
