I just saw the episode where Miroku proposes! So Cute!

Chapter 6: And I'm feeling just fine

Sango came downstairs and threw a pair of cargoes and a plain white shirt at Miroku. "You need to change, Houshi-sama. Oh, and don't talk so loud."

Miroku pulled his shirt off. "Hear anything interesting?"

"No, not really."

He yanked the other shirt on and took his pants off. "Really? Not even anything that I said?"

"Nope. That's why I left halfway through. If you two are going to argue so loudly, at least say something interesting."

Miroku pulled the khaki cargoes on. "You like your, I mean, our room?"

"Yes. Why aren't we sharing a bed again? I feel bad for just coming into your house and forcing you onto the floor."

"Don't. If reason became passion, and you became pregnant..." (A/N: Best quote EVA from an Inuyasha episode.)

"How?"

Miroku looked dejected. "You didn't let me finish.."

Sango laughed. "C'mon, Houshi-sama, I'm getting hungry."

The pair walked out of the room. Miroku grabbed his jean jacket and handed it to Sango. "It's cold there. Go ahead, put it on."

She slipped it on, and they went out to the car.

Dinner was spectacular. Both went home, full and content. On the drive home, Miroku broke the silence with a rather strange question. "You think anyone saw us?"

"Yeah. I'm sure Yuka and Sayumi did. I'm not so sure about Eri, but the other two'll tell her."

"Oh... Well, I have some advice for you. Stay away from Mushin. That loser has to have someone to bang every night. He's brought hookers home. Just stick with me, and he'll leave you alone. If he makes a move, tell me."

Sango blushed. Talking about his father like that made her somewhat uncomfortable. "So..."

"So what?"

"Wouldn't it be safer if we share a bed?"

Miroku laughed. "What's your fascination about sharing a bed with me? I promise you, I don't sleep in the nude or anything."

"I just need to feel someone else's warmth. I've been so cold since they were killed."

"Well... I guess we could. Just don't expect anything. I'm a straight edge."

He showed her the plain black X tattooed on his left wrist. (A/N: Only 'cause that's where I have mine.) Sango laughed. "Have anymore tattoos?"

"Yeah. I'll show you when we get back."

They pulled up in front of the house and got out, heading straight upstairs.
