Disclaimer: The only thing that I own is this crazy storyline. Unfortunately, all of the characters do not belong to me. So sad…
Author's Note: Hey, chapter ten is here! First off, I really made Inuyasha a complete hopeless fool in the last chapter didn't I? Ain't it funny? Well, there's a bit more of that in this chapter too! I just find if very funny and even entertaining when guys have absolutely no idea what to do when it comes to the matters of their heart. I'm giving Inuyasha a hard time here. Oh, well, it's fun. But, don't worry, I still love him. I mean, how can you not love him? Well, I'll shut up now. Have fun! Later, SilverRose88.
Chapter Ten
Bad Move, Boys
"If you didn't love me, would you have gone to hell with Kikyo?" Kagome asked Inuyasha.
The hanyou looked the most surprised in his life. He backed away a bit from Kagome, thinking, Oh, damn it! Why did she have to ask that? "Um, well, I'm not anymore, so, what does it matter, r-right Kagome?" he said.
"Oooh, bad move…" Miroku whispered to Sango.
"Yeah. Lets see if Kagome sits him." Sango said.
Kagome however, did not sit him, for like the first time ever. Instead, she walked up to Inuyasha and said, "What? Of course it matters! I want to know! And you better tell me the truth or else!"
"Bu-But Kagome! Why-why does it matter. I told Kikyo that I wanted to be with you, and that I won't got to hell with her! So-so, let's just put that all behind us and-and, K-Kagome?" Inuyasha backed away again, now because Kagome seemed to be emitting a dark aura around her. "K-Kagome?"
"Inuyasha…tell me the truth! Now!" Kagome demanded angrily. (Kay, I know Kagome probably wouldn't be emitting a dark aura…but, if I were her, I would be, sooo yeah. Never mind, just keep reading!)
Inuyasha looked away from her and said, very very very quietly, "Umm, m-maybe…" (AH! NOOO!!! Inuyasha you fool!)
"What?" Kagome yelped.
"What?" Sango and Miroku said. "He'd actually go to hell with Kikyo?" Sango asked Miroku.
"Apparently so.." Miroku said. "Yep, he is a complete idi--moron." Miroku changed his word halfway through because Inuyasha gave a very threatening glare his way.
"Inuyasha, you'd really go to hell with Kikyo?" Kagome said again.
"I-I dunno! I thought I would. I think I would. But-but, then, you are here and so---" Inuyasha said, uncertainly. He was blushing and looking anywhere but at Kagome.
"But, I asked if you didn't love me!" Kagome said.
"That doesn't matter! Even if I didn't love you, I don't know if I would have gone with Kikyo because I wouldn't want to leave you!" Inuyasha exclaimed, finally looking up at her.
The two stared at the other for a long time.
"W-What?" Kagome breathed.
"Nothing, forget I said it." Inuyasha said, embarrassed.
"No, what did you say? I-I want to know." Kagome said.
"God, Kagome, have you got to know everything?" Inuyasha snapped. Kagome glared at him, and he backed away again. "Um, but I guess I-I can tell you…I said that even if I didn't love you, I really wouldn't know whether or not to leave with Kikyo. Because leaving with her, would mean leaving you."
Kagome smiled, with tears in her eyes.
"What the hell are you crying about?!" Inuyasha said, bewildered.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome said, and hugged him.
"Ahh!" Koga exclaimed. "Get away from her!"
"Ka-Kagome!" Inuyasha said. "What are you doing?"
"I said let her go!" Koga roared.
"She's the one that hugged me!" Inuyasha yelled.
"What does that mean? You don't like it when I hug you?" Kagome said, removing her grasp around him.
"Huh? No! No! That's not what I meant!" Inuyasha said. "And you! Flea-bag, you're supposed to be pretending to be in love with Miroku! So, leave Kagome alone!"
Koga had obviously forgotten his dare, or had chose to forget. He turned slowly toward Miroku.
The monk looked over at him and said, "Oh! How so horrible! You're supposed to love me! And here, I see you after another girl! WAA!" Miroku began sobbing and put his face in Sango's shoulder, holding her close.
"Get off of me, now." Sango said through clenched teeth. "Go to your lover!" And she pushed Miroku over to Koga, who backed away and let Miroku fall to the ground.
"How can you be so-so cr-cruel? You say you love me, but yet, you back away!" Miroku sobbed.
"That is very scary." Kagome said to Inuyasha who nodded.
"Miroku, shut up! You're a guy, remember?" Inuyasha said, bonking Miroku on the head.
"Yes, I know, I know…" Miroku said.
"I don't think he does," Sango said.
"What's wrong with him, Kagome?" Shippo asked.
"I've no idea. Let-Let's just let him be for awhile." Kagome said.
"You know, he makes a better girl, if you think about it…" Koga said, and the others all nodded fervently, staring curiously at Miroku as if they'd never seen him/her before.
"Okay, moving on! Inuyasha, it's your turn to chose someone." Sango said.
"Right. Um, Shippo, truth or dare?" Inuyasha said.
"Ahh, dare." the little fox-demon said.
"Okay, I dare you to stop being so annoying." Inuyasha said. (I know Shippo isn't very annoying in my story, that's because it's hard to come up with stuff for him to say. But, Shippo is a pretty annoying little kid, especially to Inuyasha, right? So, I thought this would work. No? Oh, well…)
"But I'm not annoying!" Shippo said.
"Yes you are! So, stop bugging me all the time, got it!" Inuyasha said.
"Shippo, it's your turn to chose someone." Kagome said.
"Okay, umm, Sango, truth or dare?" Shippo asked.
The demon-slayer looked thoughtful for a moment before answering, "Dare,"
"I dare you to tell us your true feelings about Miroku." Shippo said. "Because we all know you won't say it otherwise."
Sango gaped at everyone, looking anywhere but at Miroku, who had stopped walking like a girl to turn and face Sango. She glanced quickly at Miroku but then looked away. He smiled.
"Saangoo!" Miroku sang. "Answer the question please!"
"Shut up!" Sango said.
"Come on, Sango, just tell us." Kagome said, enjoying this. She always asks about my love life, know I find out about hers.
"F-Fine…" she said after a long moment. Sango blushed, and looked directly at her shoes as she said, "I-I think--"
"No, you have to be sure." Kagome said.
Sango glared at her. "I-I l-l-love him…" she said really really quietly that it took them all about a minute to figure it out.
Kagome cheered, and said, "Finally! It's out in the open!"
"You knew?" Sango asked.
"It's obvious, Sango," Kagome said.
Miroku, who was standing a few feet away, was staring directly at Sango, and slowly smiled. "So, you've fallen for my good looks and charms?" he said, bounding over to her.
Sango looked at him and tried not to laugh at his girlishly made-up face. "Yeah…" she said quietly.
"YES!!" Miroku said, hugging her tightly.
Sango was about to hug him back when she went rigid. Miroku's hands had slowly traveled downward. "BACK AWAY YOU LETCH!!!" Sango yelled, pushing away from him. She raised her hand to slap him.
"You can't hit me, remember!" Miroku said, though backing away like a frightened puppy. "And, how can you hit the man you love?"
"Forget I ever said that! How can I love such a letch?" Sango exclaimed, ready to strike. Miroku shuddered and backed away, and tripped over a stick.
Sango laughed and helped him up.
Miroku smiled at her and slowly inched his hand over to her body.
"Touch me and you die." Sango said, glaring threateningly at him. She walked away, and said brightly, "So, my turn right? I choose Miroku."
"Dare." Miroku said.
"I dare you never to touch me again." Sango said.
"What? Bu-But San-Sango! I cannot do that! It's the way I show my undying love for you!" Miroku said.
"Find another way then!" Sango said. "Just don't touch me!"
"Hey, you guys, it's dark, can we take a break?" Kagome asked suddenly.
"Yeah, let's just camp here for awhile." Koga said. "And, don't worry Kagome, I'll protect throughout the whole night!"
"If anyone's doing any protecting, it'll be me!" Inuyasha roared. "Don't you have a pack to be the leader of? Go away you flea-bag!"
"I cannot think of leaving my Kagome alone." Koga said. "I shall stay here and watch over you."
"Tha-That's nice, Koga." Kagome said. She put her backpack on the ground and leaned against it. Sango sat down beside her and Shippo cuddled between them.
Koga went off to get some firewood, and Inuyasha and Miroku sat a few feet away from the girls and Shippo, watching over them.
"Truth or dare, Inuyasha?" Miroku said suddenly.
"We ain't playing now!" Inuyasha said, staring only at Kagome. (Awwww. )
"Well, they aren't, since they are already asleep, but we can. Come on, truth or dare?" Miroku said.
"Fine, monk. Dare." Inuyasha said.
"I dare you to propose to Kagome." Miroku said simply.
"What?" Inuyasha exclaimed, finally turning to Miroku.
"Propose to Kagome." Miroku repeated.
"Why you--have you nothing better to do than to pry into my personal business?"
"Not really."
Inuyasha growled angrily. He stood up. "Fine, I'll do it." He walked over to Kagome's sleeping figure, prodded her, but she didn't wake. "Hey, Kagome? Kagome?" She gave a sort of groan, which the hanyou took as a 'yes?'. "Will you marry me?" he asked.
"Not like that!" Miroku said, hitting him on the head with his staff. "You complete moron! She has to be awake for you to--"
"For him to what?" Koga asked, rejoining the group with a armful of big logs.
"Oh, nothing important." Miroku said. The three males made a fire and sat around it. "Inuyasha, you can chose someone now."
"Oh, right. Monk, I dare you to propose to Sango." Inuyasha said.
"Gladly. I will tomorrow morning, mark my word." Miroku said confidently, though a bit unsure about what Sango would do to him. "Now, I've got a dare for the both of you."
"You can't do a dare for both of us!" Inuyasha said.
"Just shut up you pup, let's hear what the monk has to say," Koga said.
"Thank you." Miroku said. "No, I think you both will enjoy this dare."
