The after classes bell rang and sighs were heard throughout his classroom. Miroku slipped on his backpack and walked into the hallway with the rest of the students.

"Heyy Miroku," said a girl with curly blonde hair as she passed by. Miroku waved causually and grinned. Turning around the corner, another girl walked up to him.

"Hi Miroku, how's it go'in?" asked the girl. Miroku stopped walking and leaned against the close-by wall.

"Oh...nothing. May I ask for you name?" he questioned. He watched the girl giggle and blush.

"I'm Ayumi, my room is down the hall on your floor," Ayumi said, smiling brightly.

"Is that so?" Miroku said. He thought inwardly to himself before the girl spoke again.

"Got anything happening this afternoon?" asked the girl, her chocolate eyes wandering off into the hallway. Miroku smiled again at the girl.

"Not much...I'll stop by your dorm if you want me to," suggested Miroku glancing around the hallway.

"Nah...how 'bout the tea place down the street?" wondered Ayumi.

'Tea place?' miroku mentally thought, 'Do i really look that much like a peacefull monk guy? Well yeah i'm a monk but i'm not THAT-'

"Miroku? Umm...is it okay, I mean..." Ayumi's perky voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Oh yeah, yeah, everything's fine. I mean sure I'll meet you there after classes?" Miroku suggested.

"Yeah. I'm bringing a friend of mine. Maybe you should bring one too," Ayumi said and waved.

Miroku stood there and blinked. So that wasn't a date...but who should he ask? A name in neon flashed in his mind. He was off to his next class.


Miroku lazily tapped his pencil against the desk, waiting for the bell to ring. He reminded himself of what he was doing right after this class, during lunch. Finally, the bell had rung. Leaping off from his seat, he quickly stuffed his books down his backpack and walked out.

Looking through the lunch area, he spotted Inuyasha's read sweater and Kagome's green skirt..er.i mean green top. Making his way to the visible two, he finally spotted Sango in her white and black outfit. Smiling, he called out to Inuyasha and gave him a quick wave. Miroku joined Inuyasha on a bench and Sango joined Kagome on a bench.

Miroku observed Sango and Kagome talking away happily about their grades. When he caught on about report cards, he let out two words in a whisper.

"Holy shit," he murmured. Inuyasha turned to him from this ramen as he ate.

"What?" Inuyasha asked slightly annoyed as he continued to eat his ramen.

"My chemistry grade! Damnit. If i don't raise my grade up, i won't be able to go to the dance!" Miroku exclaimed, still keeping his voice low as usual.

"Well good for you. Sango's got the best chemistry grade. Both ways you look at it," Inuyasha whispered to him in a grin. Miroku threw a disgusted face at him.

"Stay with Kagome, Inu," Miroku growled. Just then, a boy had walked up to Sango. Miroku stared at them and kept his ears WIDE opened as Inuyasha slurrped up some soup loudly.

The boy with short black hair anddark browneyes extended a hand to Sango as they shook.

"My name's Kurasaki," he offered in a pleasant smile Sango smiled back.

"Sango, pleasure to meet you," she responded flashing a smile. Setting her rice down, Kagome nudged her and Miroku continued glaring.

"I was wondering if you'd like to accompany me to a resturaunt...dinner?" Kurasaki asked, still grinning. Miroku immediatly stood up and interrupted them.

"Actually, she's busy. We're on a double date tonight," Miroku spat out. Sango gave Miroku a quizzing look but Miroku ignored it. Kurasaki sighed, then looked at Miroku.

"Well...in that case, will tommorow's breakfast be alright?" Kurasaki asked politly, shifting his attention to Sango. Sango nodded and smiled lightly. Kagome walked over to Inuyasha and made him stop slurping as Miroku sat back down. Had he just said they were going on a double-date? 'Oh great,' Miroku thought, 'I said DATE.'

Kurasaki had walked away when Kagome joined Sango again with a bright smile. So lunch continued.


"You said a date this AFTERNOON! Kaede was so angry when you hung around at the shop the last time I was working, what will she say about me NOT being there?" Sango yelled at Miroku.

Miroku shrunk but quickly gave her an answer,"I said directly after classes. So you havehalf anhour before you job starts. We can hang there for one hour and you can leave early."

"That half an hour is the time it takes me to do one fourth of my homework and put hitch a ride to the shop," she complained, clearly not wanting to agree. Lunch was almost over.

"I will get someone, just PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come! This is the only time I will beg!" Miroku pleaded with puppy eyes. Sango sighed and gave up.

"Fine. I will go with you, and you still owe me one. How about no groping me for the rest of the day?" she suggested as she threw away her disposible bowl.

"Aww...is that the only thing you can-"

"Yes. Deal?"

"Fine. Deal, deal, deal," concluded Miroku. Finally, the lunch bell rang and they all hurried inside.
