The Birds, The Bees, and The Monkeys
Chap.2
The sound of splashing water woke Gojyo. Usually, Hakkai did that, early in the morning, because he knew the sound would wake him up. But, looking over, Gojyo realized that it wasn't Hakkai making the sound, because Hakkai was fast asleep in bed. He arched a brow when he saw Goku coming in from the bathroom. His hair was wet from the bath still and he smelled….nice. Like he's used some sort of scented soap or something. It couldn't of been cologne. Or could it?
Gojyo quickly closed his eyes and pretended to sleep before Goku noticed he was up at all.
Goku stole a glance at the kappa. Was he really asleep? Goku shrugged, and put the bag of things he'd bought earlier on his bed. He pulled out a silver heart locket and a bouquet of flowers. He smelled them; they smelled wonderful; he hoped Sakura would think so, too.
Gojyo wondered what all the things were for. Normally, these things wouldn't be anywhere near Goku's character. But he hadn't been acting normal lately anyways, so he guessed it would be okay.
Goku ran a comb through his hair, trying his best to comb out all cowlicks, and horns, get rid of all rats, and make his hair shine. This also confused Gojyo; Goku never put so much effort into his image. He would just wake up, change, eat, and wake the others up, if they weren't already up.
"Well….looks like I've got some extra time before I have to go." Goku noticed. He brushed off an outfit hanging up, one Gojyo knew hadn't been there the night before.
It was a pair of clean white pants, and a red silk Chinese shirt with the patterns of golden dragons on it. Goku changed into this outfit at a leisurely pace, and humming as he went along, put the locket and flowers in the bag and walked out the door.
"Goku? Goku!" Hakkai called for the monkey later. Goku wasn't anywhere to be seen, and it was nearing lunch time. Goku was never one to miss a meal.
"Didn't he say he was going to miss lunch?" Sanzo wondered. Gojyo stared out the window, and his eyes widened.
"I see him!" He called the others to watch.
Walking out of the inn, arm linked with that of a girl. Her hair, chocolate brown with honey gold mixed in, was up in a ponytail. She wore a pink spaghetti strap tank top and some denim shorts. She smiled in turn to some of the things Goku seemed to be saying.
"Wait…that question last night!" Sanzo realized.
"Let's say…there's this guy….and he met this cute, nice girl, but he lives with three guys who would make fun of him if they found out that the guy liked the girl. So…what should that guy do?"
It hit them hard what he had been getting at. He had been asking whether or not he should tell them about how he liked a certain girl.
Gojyo pounded a fist in one palm.
"One thing's for sure. That bakazaru had a lot to explain when he comes back from his 'date'!" Gojyo growled.
Down below them, Goku sneezed.
