A/N: Hey people. I apologize for the long period between updates, but writers block decided to visit. I hope this chapter helps make up for it.
Review Responses
Sango the demon exterminator: Sorry I took so long to update, but I was having an industrial strength writer's block. Hope you enjoy this chapter I wouldn't want to be the cause of your death.
Cherry Grl 4 o 8: I guess this chapter answer's your question.
Kouga's #1 Fan: I know! God, can't I guy go longer than a few days without updating before people think he's taking too long?
Anicypov: I know. My last several chapters haven't been that great. In fact, I think they've been gradually getting worse since somewhere in the teens, but I'm trying my best. I only have so many ideas you know. And don't threaten me! I will make you rue the day you left the womb! But I like your taste in music. I love Rise Against, and The Used. System of a Down is pretty good too.
Hayai-Hakai: I'm glad your grandma is doing well. If you wanted me to update soon you could've said so but I appreciate your understanding. It took a lot of work for me to break the writer's block I had. Hope you enjoy!
-CuteAnimeBoysMakeMePant-: Don't hate Kagome. She's not to blame. And I wasn't planning to put in another plot twist, but I can if you like. And don't you threaten me ether. I've defeated three would-be assassins already and I can defeat you too. And I don't like to use force, so just take my word that I won't change it again.
Green-eyes: I'm glad you believed me. So many people thought I wouldn't change it back. Don't worry it'll stay Miroku/Sango from now on.
Starriecat: I know I attracted some Kagome/Miroku types, but hey, you can't please them all. It was only partially Miroku's fault. He was loyal, but Sango didn't trust him and dumped him. So Sango had part too. Does it even matter though? They're back together now, so be content.
Sango's-gal: I'm glad I was able to help you out. Most of my fans are happy, except for the two or three that wanted Miroku/Kagome to stick. But like I said, you can't please them all.
Sango the monk slapper: Of course I'll keep going! It would've been pretty evil of me to end it there, and like I said, I'm only about 85 evil.
Hotaru-Chan: I'm glad you support Sango and Miroku getting back together. Most everyone does. But you seem really psyched about it. Glad I could please you.
Sangonesan: I know. 99 Red Balloon's is like my third favorite song to ever be written.
Oceanicca: I'm glad I've turned you on to a new type of fanfiction! I the Kagome/Miroku pairing was my favorite part too, which is why I'm writing a Kagome/Miroku fic too! Good thing I made it work, I wouldn't want to make a crappy Miroku/Kagome bit.
Chapter 37: How To Get Her Back
Inuyasha leaned against the club bar and downed his fourth shot of tequila. Koga got of the dance floor at the end of the last song. He took Inuyasha's shot glass and tossed it aside. "Get that shit out of here!" Koga commanded. "I didn't take you out tonight so you could drown your damn sorrows! I took you out to get your mind off Kagome and meet some girls."
"Hey babe." A redhead came up behind Koga and draped her arms over his shoulders.
"Oh?" Inuyasha said with an amused look. "Who's your lady-friend?"
"This is Ayame." Koga replied.
"Add another night to the book of great moments in hook-up history eh?" Inuyasha asked.
"I suppose. Maybe we could be making a double entry if you'd get up off your lazy ass. I know you gotta have at least a little mack somewhere in you." Koga encouraged him.
"Feh. I have more mack then I know what to do with wolf." Inuyasha snorted.
"Then get out there and prove it!" Koga urged on.
"I'm not giving up on Kagome yet. I already explained that."
"Are you sure about that?" Ayame asked. "I came here with a few friends, and I know one of them would hit it off perfectly with you."
"Not interested." Inuyasha affirmed.
"Come on dog! It's not like she necessarily thinks you guys should hook up. Maybe you could at least make a friend." Koga reasoned. "What's her name?"
"Yuka." Ayame answered. "Come on. She's pretty." she added with a wink.
"Fine." Inuyasha finally conceded. "But don't get the idea I'm interested in her." Ayame grabbed Koga's wrist and beckoned for Inuyasha to follow. She led the two over to a small group of her friends.
"Hey guys. This is Inuyasha and Koga. Inuyasha, Koga, they are Midori, Keiko, Ai, and Yuka." Ayame introduced the four and pointed them out accordingly to their names.
"Inuyasha, huh?" Yuka began, shaking his hand. "You wouldn't happen to know a Kagome Higurashi would you?"
"Uh, yeah, actually I do. How'd you know?" Inuyasha asked, slightly bewildered.
"So you are the Inuyasha! Kagome is a friend of mine. I met her at a summer camp two years back. She almost never stops talking about you!" Yuka exclaimed. "We haven't talked in a while though. How is she?"
"Uh…"
"Don't you know? You are her boyfriend after all." Yuka commented.
"Ex-boyfriend." Koga corrected her.
Inuyasha socked him over the head, "Shut up Koga! We didn't break up. We're just having some err…problems." Inuyasha euphemized it.
"Problems my ass! She's going out with Miroku you jerk-off! Face it, you've been dumped!" Koga interrupted again, earning another hit. "Quit hitting me!"
"Oh I'm sorry about that. I didn't know." Yuka apologized.
"Feh, it's okay. Besides, this walking flea-condo don't know what he's talking about." Inuyasha said.
"What'd you call me?" Koga tackled Inuyasha and the two began to tussle on the ground. They received an odd look from the five girls.
"Hey, hey, break it up you two!" Ayame said, pulling Koga away from his battle. "We don't want to create a scene here." Yuka dragged Inuyasha back to the bar, as Koga was struggling to continue their match.
"God, he certainly over-reacted." Yuka observed.
"Nah." Inuyasha disagreed. "We always fight like that."
"With friends like him, who needs enemies?" Yuka joked.
"He's a cool dude; he just doesn't have much in the way of a sense of humor."
"So what kind of 'problem's' do you and Kagome have? Maybe I can help you out." Yuka offered.
"Well, recently she's been really cuddly with this guy I know. So I was a little suspicious. I tried to let it go but then I see them kissing at the movie theater so that tells me all I need to know. I tell the guys girlfriend and she dumps him. So obviously that opens the window for Kagome." Inuyasha explained.
"Well, that makes it sound like it's you two share the fault. If you hadn't of told the guy's girlfriend, Kagome wouldn't have gone after him. But then again they were kissing when you were still together. Who is this guy?"
"His name's Miroku."
"Miroku? Short black hair, bout 5'10, oddly colored eyes?" Yuka asked.
"That's the one."
"Kagome's told me about him. He's the charmer alright. He isn't too bad either. I can't say I blame her." Yuka admitted.
"Not helping." Inuyasha cut in.
"Right. If I were you I'd beg for forgiveness. I know Kagome has just as much part in this as you do, but she isn't going to admit she was doing anything wrong, she's too stubborn. Just swallow your pride. If she takes you back, she wasn't cheating. If she denies you, she was cheating and I suggest your bring the hurt on this Miroku guy. And then get revenge." Yuka suggested.
"How?"
"Easy. You pretend to be dating me."
"I don't get it. What's the catch?" Inuyasha wondered out loud.
"No catch. You seem like a pretty decent guy, and if Kagome cheated on you, you obviously didn't deserve it. And I know it'd fire her up to see you going out with one of her friends. Jealousy is a powerful tool you know."
"I know only too well."
"I almost forgot what that felt like." Sango gasped, trying to catch her breath.
"You forgot? I thought I left a more lasting impression than that!" Miroku complained.
"Well, excuse me for two months of chastity! Besides, I didn't really forget, just came close." Sango pointed out. "So how do you plan to go about telling Kagome?"
"I don't know. So far I haven't been able to think of a way that won't result in Kagome bawling her eyes out and/or getting my head ripped off." Miroku said.
"I think we should both tell her. It's only fair, and I played as much of a part as you did in this." Sango offered.
"Have I told you how much I love you lately?" Miroku asked.
"Actually you have."
"Then I guess I'll have to show you." Miroku concluded suggestively.
Sango wasn't about to complain.
A/N: Just so fans of Untitled know, I won't be continuing construction on that until Jealousy is complete. I am almost done with this story though and I have gotten several reviews requesting a sequel of when their in college. If you like that idea let me know! I live to please those who deserve it!
