Never Thought
Chapter 5
Miroku was taking care of Sango's wounds. Much to Kouga's disbelief she wasn't hurt to badly. Kouga had taken too watching Miroku's every move. He didn't trust the monk for more than one reason. He knew of Miroku's perverted nature.
Then of course he knew of the monk's attachment to his Sango. He wasn't going to let this monk steal her heart away again. Though he had felt a burn when she had said Miroku instead of Kouga. But he knew that she wouldn't take Miroku back. At least he hoped. Kouga sat near Sango. She looked so fragile, and weak. He didn't like that. He didn't like that one bit.
Kouga got up. He had to go and take care of his tribe. He had to leave a perverted monk alone with his woman. It didn't really feel right. In a matter of fact it felt down right wrong. But Kouga was the leader of his tribe he had responsibilities. Kouga stood up and walked to the edge of the cave. "If you touch her monk, you die." Kouga said in a spiteful voice as he walked out. Leaving a very scared monk behind.
Miroku smiled. He had been left alone with his lovely Sango. Finally... you would think that Kouga had been in love with Sango the way he had watched over her. But that could never happen. He loved Kagome. Then again Kagome was mated to Inu-yasha. So that could cause some problems for Kouga.
But what did it matter? He was with her again. Though the beautiful maiden he left at that old woman's house would have to be visited soon so she didn't get 'lonely'. Miroku loved being alone with Sango. Though it would be better if she woke up...
Miroku had never told her this but he truly did love her. Once he had gotten out of the nature of a pervert he was going to be true to her. He promised himself that if he found Sango he'd... he'd... great I can't remember... oh well... it couldn't have been that important... could it? Miroku thought to himself.
Miroku began walking back and forth. What was that promise? He questioned himself. He knew if he kept on doing this he might remember. At least he hoped he would remember.
Kouga was walking around out side of the caves. His people were healing faster than he thought they would. It was the repairs that worried him. There were monstrous boulders blocking the food stores and a couple of the caves. This wasn't good. With all his men injured he couldn't get rid of them all.
A lot of his tribe had been killed too. That made things even more difficult. For now all the other demon tribes would want the territory back. And he was short on men at the moment. The only thing that probably kept them away was the fact that Miroku of the Wind Tunnel was here at the moment. And to top that off the last surviving Demon Slayer. Good thing no one knew that Miroku lost his Wind tunnel and Sango was knocked out.
I wonder how she's doing... (She's doing fine stop worrying like a mother hen!) Shut up! No one invited you. (Be nice) Why should I? (Because Miroku's here) What does that have to do with any thing? (He might steal our... your Sango away)
No way in hell she still likes that idiot. (Ever heard the expression 'Never give up on love.' Maybe she'll go back to him just because she used to love him) No she wouldn't! (Yes she might and she will) Don't say things like that! (Don't tell me what to do! Your not my boss)
Yes I am! (No) Yes (no) yes (no) yes (yes) no! And that's final! (See? I have the power!! MWHAHAHA!!) God damn you! You little bastard there is no way you won! You fucking cheated! (How can you cheat with out any rules?)
Shut the fuck up you little bastard. (My my my what a potty mouth you have!) grr...
(I think I won!) get the fuck outta my mind you bastard! (I can't leave your mine! I am your mind!) That's a scary thought... (yes yes it is.) ha! I won! (That wasn't fair! You cheated you cheated!) How can I cheat without any rules? (Quit using my lines against me!) Why? What are you going to do? Go cry to mommy? (Grr... That's it! I'm outta here! Next time you need help in love don't come crying to me!)
Kouga smiled in triumph. He had finally made that annoying little creature go buh-bye. But now that, that conversation was over he had things to do. Like... well actually he had nothing to do... that was never a good thing.
He didn't want to go bother Sango but then again that monk was there... He was stuck between letting Sango rest in peace or going and saving her from the monk. A very hard choice, mind you. So Kouga decided to let Sango rest in peace until the sun went down. Then he'd have to go see her.
Miroku sat near Sango's sleeping body. He pushed some of her bangs out of her face. He loved her face. It was so soft, so gentle. He stroked the side of her face gently. That's when he remembered Kouga's threat.
I wonder why he would care if I touched Sango. I mean she is going to be my wife... as soon as I don't have a need to be with other women. But it's not like she and Kouga are a couple... I think... I'm soooo confused right now. If he loved her he wouldn't want me to touch her then again maybe he's just worried about her wounds. You never can be certain what goes around in that demon's head.
Miroku stopped stroking her when some of Kouga's tribes females brought him fire wood for the fire. All thoughts of Sango forgotten he gave them a smile that could melt the Artic. "Why hello ladies." He said to them. They were younger females... at least they looked younger... maybe 15, but you could never tell their real age through how they looked.
They both giggled. "Hi." They said at the same time. "It is such a pleasure to meet beautiful women." He said kissing each of their hands in turn. The girls looked at each other, a small smile on their faces. They had heard of Miroku. They knew where this was going.
Miroku gave them a wonderful smile. "Do think that by any chance you lovely maidens would consider bearing my children?" Miroku asked them. Both of the demons smiled. They knew what his question would be. "Well..." The first said quietly. "I'm already mated." She told Miroku. His face fell quite a bit. "I'm not." Giggled the younger of the two.
"I'd be happy to bear your child." She said with a big smile. "No you wouldn't." Commented a voice from the front of the cave. "Kouga..." both girls said at the same time.
"Don't listen to her monk, she's about to be mated." Kouga told Miroku. "Thank you for telling me." Miroku said bowing his head in Kouga's direction. Kouga said nothing. The only reason he told Miroku is because he didn't want any half-breeds like Inu-yasha.
Kouga walked in and sat on a mat near Sango. "You may leave now." Kouga told the two girls. Both looked a little disappointed. "Bye-bye Miroku." The younger said with a pout on her face. "Bye." The elder said in a hurry to leave. "Come on sister let's not waste any more time here." She said grabbing the younger girl by the arm and dragging her out of the cave.
Miroku began building the fire. Soon a warm glow filled the cave. The sun was just now setting. Kouga had come a little early. Good thing he did too. He looked at his Sango. The fire made her look like she was glowing. Then he looked at the monk, who was also staring at Sango.
No doubt he still thought Sango was his. How mistaken he was. Then again... Sango had never agreed to be Kouga's mate so... Miroku still had a chance. That was bad for Kouga. Miroku and Sango had a history together. While he had a history of chasing after Kagome.
Miroku turned to him and smiled. He had no idea what was going on. "So Kouga, I take it you found it Kagome and Inu-yasha are mated." Miroku said to him. Like he had any idea of what was going on. Kouga could feel the humiliation. He had lost to a pathetic half-breed.
But then again, he would have never fallen for Sango had Kagome accepted him. In a matter of fact if Kagome had gone with him then Sango would have been with Miroku. But if Kagome did become his mate then he wouldn't have considered Sango. It was all so confusing... Though Kouga was happy he met Sango. But he wasn't really happy about Miroku.
That idiot tried to insult him. At least Kouga thought so. And he still thinks Sango would really like him. I mean really he only asks every pretty girl he sees if they would bear his children. That was rather ridiculous. Sango deserved much better than a womanizer. She deserved much better than a human too.
At least in Kouga's eyes. Well Miroku's little insult couldn't go ignored for to long. "Ah yes, that's true. I found someone much better. But what about you? I heard you and Sango had gotten into a fight and left you." Kouga said with an arrogant smirk on his face.
Miroku put his head down at this. It could have just been a simple question but then again... The way Kouga said it, it was As though he was laughing at him or something. That made Miroku angry. He had gone on a long journey for her. He knew when she awoke she'd go back to his arms once again.
Then he could leave this place. He didn't really like Kouga that much. Before he thought Kouga was okay. Then again he was bothering Inu-yasha at that time. He was only bothering Inu-yasha because he wanted Kagome to be his mate. That's why he always insulted Inu-yasha.
Wait a minute! He insulted me. Does that mean since Kagome doesn't want him he turned his affections onto my Sango?!? Does he want her to be his mate now? How did that happen? I wasn't gone for that long... but she couldn't love him. She loves me. There's no way she'd fall for Kouga. Miroku thought panicking more at every moment.
Miroku suddenly began glaring at Kouga. Kouga glared right back. If you walked in at that moment you'd think they were in a staring contest. Which it seemed like they were having. Miroku finally decided there was no reason to hate Kouga unless he really was in love with HIS Sango.
The only way to find that out was to ask. Here goes nothing... "Kouga... are you... do you have..." Miroku stuttered through what he was trying to say. "Spit it out!" Kouga said in an annoyed voice. "Kouga are you in love with Sango??" Miroku asked as fast as possible.
Kouga really hadn't been expecting that question... what did he say. Does he tell Sango's former love that he was in love with Sango and planned on becoming her mate? Then again he didn't really like Miroku so why should he care if he hurt his feelings? Then again he didn't know if Sango really loved him in return.
Miroku sat waiting for Kouga's answer. It seemed as though it would never come. He knew he shouldn't have been a womanizer when he was with Sango, but he didn't think she'd move on. He thought she'd wait until he was done being him. It hurt Miroku so much to think she'd have moved on so soon.
He thought he had meant something to her. He knew that they would always be great friends but he was hoping they could also be great lovers. He had, had his eyes on her ever since she had first challenged Inu-yasha. Not only because she was so beautiful, okay maybe at first that was the only reason why at first anyway.
Then he had gotten to know her. She was the greatest person he could find to spend his life with. He was always groping her or something like that or was groping other women. Sango had never gotten too mad at him before. Other than the time at the village when she left him. But still... it had only been what... 4 days?
He didn't know what he would do if she had moved on. On his whole journey here he hadn't even considered it... he should have and that was obvious to him now. He knew he could go back and marry that girl or someone in the village... but the wouldn't have the same connection as he and Sango had.
Miroku couldn't help but to think of all the times he betrayed her and she let him come back. She had always been very understanding or so he thought. Sometimes he thought he could hear her crying, but he always wrote that off as the wind... or some other stupid idea.
He knew that she had really been crying. He should have gone to comfort her but... he had always seen that as opportunity to get out of the house to see other women. Kagome had even caught him once. She didn't tell Sango because she knew it would break her heart but if Miroku EVER did it again she would tell Sango AND get Inu-yasha to attack him.
He didn't think Inu-yasha would really attack him. Or that Kagome would ever tell Inu-yasha to attack him but... he was worried when she threatened to tell Sango. Yet he still snuck out. What could that mean?
Kouga was about to answer when they heard a moan from Sango's body. Sango's eyes fluttered open as looked about the cave. She sat up and held her head for a moment. Miroku had tried to go over to her but Kouga beat him. He was at her side cradling her in his arms. "Are you okay?" Kouga asked her in a quiet voice. "I'm fine..." She mumbled leaning into him. She wasn't really awake at the moment. She then rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand.
Her eyes grew wide as she looked at Miroku. So many different emotions flashed through her eyes. "Miroku..." Sango said staring at him ignoring the demon beside her. Kouga gave Miroku a death glare. "Miroku!" She exclaimed again a smile breaking through her face. She looked so happy to see him.
"Kouga..." She said turning to the wolf. That's when a spark of confusion came to her eyes. She loved both Miroku and Kouga... But she could only love one... what was she going to do....
