Chapter Five-Part one: Lemon Scene

Jaken did not awaken until sometime the next day, so while Rin watched over the demon, Sesshomaru and Miroku both decided that they needed to do something-and quick(if you know what I mean!).

The training area seemed a good a place as any, but Sesshomaru seemed to refuse. Instead, Miroku found himself in Sesshomaru's arms, bridal style, and heading down a hallway. Miroku didn't pay much attention to the design; instead he was trailing soft kisses up and down Sesshomaru's jawline and throat.

Within seconds, they were in front of a dark emerald green sliding door, and the lord opened it with his foot(which is very funny to see-imagine it!), and they stepped inside. Miroku's eyes widened, and his jaw dropped to the floor.

The room was absolutely beautiful. The floors were the standard bamboo material, but they were dyed to be colored the same dark emerald green as the sliding door. The walls were painted black, and the futon in the corner of the room was huge. The covers on top of it were big, fluffy and plushy looking, and they seemed to have been made out of silk. They were black/emerald green, and had little silver threads woven into it, so it changed from black, to emerald green, to silver. There was a pattern of silver butterflies all across the blanket, and they shimered in the firelight (as there were no windows).

There was another sliding door to the left, and Sesshomaru walked towards the door, Miroku still in his arms. This time, Miroku opened it for them, and gasped softly. It was a bathroom, but that term didn't seem big enough for all space in the room.

In the middle of the room, there was a big tub, about 20 feet across(both length and width), and about 3-5 feet deep. The water inside was already steaming the place up, but Miroku thought he could see a futon on the other side of the pool.

Miroku was put down, and Sesshomaru turned away. He was confused before he realized that Sesshomaru was waiting for him to undress, and even though he didn't have to, was giving him some privacy.

Miroku hurriedly undressed, and grabbed one of the black towels from the bench that held them. He wrapped it around him, then waited for Sesshomaru to turn around. When he did, he saw that Sesshomaru had already shrugged off the top part of his kimono again, and Miroku blushed, turning away towards the water.

Several seconds later he felt somebody gently push him towards the water, and he walked, stepping into it gracefully, letting the towel drop onto the floor. He turned to look at his mate, who had stepped in behind him, and was wrapping his arms around his midsection, kissing the bite mark he had made some five weeks prior.

LEMON SCENE HERE! Go to my lj, Uttrminayme. I'll post it there.
The next day, Miroku was somewhat reluctant to leave Sesshomaru, and face his friends. He knew that Sango was pissed as it was-he was afraid if Sesshomaru showed, then Sango would indeed kill him.

But when he was let down from Sesshomarus arms, he found that Sango was still out cold, thanks to a pill that she had tooken from Kagome. Kagome smiled gently at Miroku and bowed her head in respect at Sesshomaru, who just gave her a blank look.

"Good morning, Miroku! I didn't expect you back so quickly! Would you...er...like something to eat?" she asked hesitantly, stepping a bit closer to the monk before her. She then noticed the red looking bitemark and flushed bright red, before looking at the ground.

"Keh! What the fuck to you so long?" asked Inuyasha, who was sitting up in the tree above them, and raised an eyebrow as Mirokus' face turned as red as Kagomes. Sesshomaru gave Inuyasha his usual loathing look, and said in a cold voice, "Mating, you god forsaken mongrel. Or have you not already claimed the girl as your mate?"

Sesshomaru smirked as he watched his younger brother turn red, and heard Kagome squeak. Miroku furrowed his eyebrows together, and elbowed Sesshomaru in the side gently. "Sesshomaru..." he muttered, and Sesshomaru turned back to him, only to nip him on the neck gently.

Kagome cleared her throat, and Miroku stepped away from Sesshomaru, and towards Kagome. "Is...is Lady Sango alright?" His voice had an obvious waver to it, and he felt a small part if him wish for her not to be alright.

Kagome nodded, and turned away towards the girl who was currently on her sleeping bag, curled up into a small ball. Shippou was lying next to her, along with Kirara, and both were sleeping soundly.

"She should be like this until nightfall, at the least." Kagome sighed afterwards, and turned to look at Miroku. "Miroku, I'm...I'm afraid she'll hurt you. She was pretty shocked when she woke up after you left, and it was hard to hold her back from going after you. We almost had to forced her to take the medicine I gave her, but in the end she agreed...but I had told her it was to help her relax."

Kagome rubbed her temple, and shrugged. "Its a knock out pill, actually." They were all silent for sometime, before Sesshomaru said in his cool and collected voice, "I will see you in three days. If my mate has been hurt, all of you will die."

Kagome paled considerably, and Miroku giggled, turning to the demon. "Don't joke like that, Sesshomaru!" he said, and Kagome watched with wide eyes as he hugged the demon, the kissed him on the cheek. Sesshomaru had put one arm around his back and pulled him closer, nuzzling his neck before letting go and floating back up into the sky.

After several seconds of silence, Inuyasha said in a bored voice, "You know he'll be watching us, right?" Miroku shrugged, and nodded, absently rubbing at the mark before sitting down at the base of the tree. "Yes, I know, but not before he goes to get Jaken and Rin. He can't leave Jaken to his own acord; apparently the pest goes and drinks Sesshomarus' ale."

Inuyasha shook his head, and gazed down at Miroku. Really...it was all very unfair.

Silver Silk-Part Two: Guilty Confessions

It was now, or never.

He had to do it, or else Miroku and Kagome would never know how he felt.

Walking up behind Kagome, he hesitated. What was he going to say? How could he say it without Kagome crying or making Miroku feel uncomfortable? Finally, he sighed, and tapped her on her shoulder, resuming his usual cold mask.

Turning around, Kagome smiled at him, and he felt his heart melt. "Yes, Inuyasha?" she asked, and he glared at her. Inside he was melting under her gaze, but on the outside, none of that showed.

"You and Miroku meet me in the forest.Now." he hissed, and Kagome stepped back a bit. Inuyasha didn't wait for her to reply, instead he turned sharply and quickly walked away.

The half demon stood in a clearing in the forest for less than three minutes before Kagome and Miroku showed. Inuyashas' heart sped up at the thoughts of the two people, and he turned away quickly.

Kagome cleared her throat, and Inuyasha could smell the waves of unshed fury and confusement coming from the girl. Her scent was intoxicating, and Inuyasha breathed deeply. He then smelled Mirokus' scent, and felt himself go weak in the knees. Miroku always smelled good, but there was something tainted about his scent now...something hidden, no doubt...

Brushing it off, Inuyasha turned back to the teenager and the man. "I have something that I need to tell the both of you. You two will never hear me talk like this again, so...so just shut up, and sit down. Do not speak until I am done with what I have to say."

Kagome made a sound in the back of her throat, as if to protest, but seemed to think better of it, and instead did as her half demon friend told her to do. Miroku sat down next to her gingerly, and Kagome hid a smile. She knew why it took Miroku so long to get back...and why it was hurting to sit down...

Breaking her gaze from Mirokus face, she turned her attention to Inuyasha, who looked terribly insecure all of a sudden. "Inuyasha? Why did you bring us here?" she asked cautiously. Expecting to get yelled at, she lowered her head, but when no beratings came forth, she peeked up at the halfdemon.

He had decided to ignore her, and instead cleared his throat. "Kagome," he nodded to the girl. "Miroku," he nodded to the monk."I have a...confession?...to make. I have to tell you two this now...or never." He said quietly, and while Miroku had no trouble hearing what the young dog demon had said, Kagome had to strain forward just a bit to hear him.

Inuyasha continued. "First of all-Miroku...I-I love you." Mirokus eyes widened in shock, and Inuyasha felt his own face heat up. His heart pounded mercilessly against his ribcage, a beat that continued ferociously until the conversation was over.

"But, Inuyasha, I-"

A glare from the demon silenced him, and Inuyasha nodded. "I know, Miroku. You are mated. But that is not all. " Turning his eyes on Kagome, he felt his chest tighten as he saw the tears threatening to spill out of her deep blue eyes(what color is her eyes, really?). "I also love you Kagome-more than I do Kikiyou, more than I have ever loved that dead woman."

Kagome really did cry then, and Miroku tried to comfort her, although the action was not needed. She wasn't crying from anger or sadness; no she was crying from the sheer happiness those words gave her. And to come from Inuyashas' mouth, no less!

"There is a problem, though. I love the both of you...I was intent on taking you as my mate, Miroku...but seeing as you have already gotten one, I think I will have Kagome...if she wants me to, of course."

Kagome felt her heart stop. "I don't want to be second best!" she screeched, tears still pouring down her face. Inuyasha opened his mouth, but was interuppted once again.

"Is that all I am to you! First as tama detector, second as mate? Well, here what I have to say to that! Si-" but Miroku clamped a hand over her mouth, silencing the words coming from her mouth. Inuyasha gave Miroku a thankful look, and glared at his soon-to-be mate. "You are not second best, you damn wench! If you would've let me talk, you would know that!"

Clearing his throat once again, Inuyasha continued, his heart beginning to make him feel sick to his stomach. "I love you now more than I do Miroku! I love you more than I ever did Kikyou, and not just because you look like her," Inuyasha strode over to where Kagome sat, and Miroku moved away just a bit, giving the demon more room as he knelt down beside her.

"I love you Kagome, not Miroku, not Kikyou-YOU. Get that through your thick skull, bitch." he whispered, before taking Kagomes' lips in a kiss. Miroku looked away, embarassment riding high on his face. Really, when had he become so desirable? And to demons, no less?

Pulling back, Kagomes' eyelids fluttered shut, and she hugged Inuyasha fiercly, the hug being reciprocated, much to her surprise. "So does this mean you'll be my mate?" Inuyasha asked her quietly, and Kagome nodded.

"How could I not want you as my mate, Inuyasha?" she whispered, and for once in his life, Inuyasha felt incredibly happy.
When Miroku awoke the next morning, he was met with an angry face looking down on him.

Blinking his eyes, he sat up, and saw that it was Sango who was glaring at him with obvious distaste. "So," she drawled as Miroku went to stand. "You've become the mate of Inuyashas' brother. How fitting." Sango growled out the last two words, and Miroku looked over to the demon sitting in the tree above them, then back to Kagome's sleeping form, Shippou next to her.

The monk gave her a look, but other than that, completely ignore her as he rolled up the sleeping bag, placing it next to Kagomes book bag.

"Its ironic, don't you think?" she asked him in a mockingly innocent voice, and Miroku glanced at her. "To be mated to a male, when we all know you're just going to die faster now?"

Miroku spun around from starting the fire, and spat angrily, "What are you talking about Sango!"

Sangos' eyes glinted dangerously, and Miroku gave her an uncertain look. "Your a male...he's a male...don't you need a female to reproduce children, Miroku? Or did that ugly bitemark on your neck reduce the blood flowing to your brain?" she asked, her anger only rivaling his own.

"Naraku will be dead before this hell hole can consume me, Sango. But thank you for worrying." He replied, sarcasm as thick as butter. Sango let out a frustrated sigh, and threw her hands up into the air.

"Miroku! I loved you! And I still do! You are going to have to reproduce someday, so why not now! Especially since I have agreed! Finally?" she asked, and now all that was heard in her voice was desperation.

Miroku sighed, and gave up with lighting the fire. "Sango-chan...I am truly sorry. I was in love with you for the longest time...but after you didn't show any intrest...I fell in love with someone else. You picked one hell of a time to agree to bear my children."

And that was it. The conversation was over. And so was their friendship.

Miroku was very glad to see Sesshomaru again, along with Rin, who danced around his legs unceremoniously, and wanted to be badly intorduced to "Lady Kagome and Inuyasha-sama!". Miroku did not hesitate, and ignored the look that Sesshomaru gave him. Gathering her up into her arms, Miroku carried her over to the young girl, who smiled at Rin gently.

"This is Lady Kagome, Rin. Those stories I told you all came from her, so you should thank her wisely." He added, and Rin grasped onto Kagomes' sleeves tightly. "Ohhh! Really, Miroku-sama? Oh, Lady Kagome, those stories of the mand and the refelction, and-" Rin continued to babble befroe Inuyasha rolled his eyes, and asked rather rudely, "Do you ever shut up?"

Rin instantly quieted, and Kagome closed her eyes. "Rude much! Sit, boy!" She yelled, and then took Rin from Miroku, holding her in her arms. "I think you talk just fine, Rin. If anyone ever tells you that you talk to much, just tell them that they don't talk enough." Rin laughed, and hugged the girl tightly, before struggling to get down.

She then sat before the half demon, flat on her stomach, and looked him in the face. "Your cute." she said after some thought, and Kagome burst out laughing. Inuyasha glared and his face turned a slight pink color, before he answered for her to mind her own business.

"Rin's not to far off, either, Inuyasha!" said Kagome loudly, and Inuyasha got up after the five seconds had passed, his face visibly turning pinker by the second.

"Oh! Can I feel your ears, Inuyasha-sama?" she asked, and Inuyasha scowled. "No." he said, and Rin gave him a puppy dog look(no pun or anything there intended). "Please, Inuyasha-sama? I promise I won't pull on them."

Kagome picked up the girl and walked quickly over to the half demon, who took an invouluntary step back. "No, Kagome! I said-" he started, but was cut off when Kagome mouth met his. "Yay!" squealed Rin, and she grabbed both of his ears. Kagome had stepped back the minute Inuyashas' ears had been grabbed, and let Rin rub them.

"They're soft, aren't they?" she asked, and Rin nodded absentmindedly. "Yes, Lady Kagome, they are!" Inuyasha jerked back, and Rin smiled at the dog demon, her arms still outstretched. Glancing down, she sptted Shippou, who looked back at her with wide eyes.

"Oh, who are you?" she asked as she was put down on the ground. Shippou crossed his arms, and lifted his chin a bit, before saying in a proud way, "My name is Shippou! I'm a fox demon." Opening his eyes, he was surprised to see that Rin was blushing just a bit. Sure, he had grown over the years, and was now a bit taller than Rin, but he was wondering why she was looking down at the ground instead of him.

"My-my names Rin." she whispered, and this earned an arched eyebrow from her lord, Sesshomaru. Rin had never been that quiet, unless he told her to keep quiet, and even then she was loud. This was quite a turn of events.

Miroku watched in fascination as Shippou and Rin interacted-it was the beginning of a blossoming love, he could tell. The happiness, however, was wrenched away when he felt a wave of nausea hit him. Covering his mouth, he took a deep breath. Surely he wasn't going to-

But he almost did, and he turned quickly around starting off at a brisk walk, but ending in a run for the forest. There, in the midst of trees, he threw up the breakfast he had eaten. He continued until all he did was dry heave, and slowly walked towards the stream that he had thrown up near. Washing his face and hands, he took off his new silk kimono that Rin had gotten Sesshomaru to buy him, and placed it in the cool water.

Really, that had been the second time in three days! He threw up almost every morning and again every night. Kagome was beginning to think he was sick, but he was sure he wasn't.

Hearing footsteps behind him, he grabbed his kimono and rung it out. Pulling it back on, he hoped that the suns light would dry it quickly. Turning around, he same face-toface with his mate, who was looking at him intently, eyes gleaming.

"Sorry, Sesshomaru. I haven't been feeling very well lately. It must be something of Kagomes."

Sesshomaru walked closer to him as Miroku talked and watched as he cupped some water in his hand and washed his mouth out with it, spitting it into the clear water, which washed it downstream.

"Sometimes Kagomes' food can do-"

"You're not sick."

Miroku looked at his mate, who was now standing right in front of him. Taking the man into his arms, he hugged the monk, affection pouring from his every move.

"You're pregnant."
