Jealously comes Cheap

A/N: Sound good? Hope you like it

Footsteps sounded through the hall thumping loudly against the tiled floor, Kagome's perky voice came ringing as she opened the door, a huge smile plastered to her face, "I did it!" Kagome squealed shutting the door behind her.

"Did what?" Inuyasha asked being awake now, Kikyou was laying next to him in bed her head rested on his shoulder tiredly as she rubbed her eyes, her having been asleep until her sister had interrupted her pleasant dream. Sesshomaru looked up from behind a book in the corner of the room, and Sango turned away from Kohaku a questioning look on her face.

"I entered this contest a while back and I won!" She said flashing around a huge check. "Whoa!" Sango said rolling herself in the doctor's seat towards Kagome, taking the check from her, her eyes wide with shock. "Kagome this is…" "1 billion dollars! And we are sooooo going to the mall RIGHT now!" Miroku opened the door hearing the statement 'the mall' from outside the door, Kagome's voice being exceptionally loud do the fact she was so excited. Miroku laughed as Kagome dragged Kikyou and Sango out the door, "Meet us at the mall at one!" Kagome screamed shutting the door behind them.

Miroku laughed taking a seat in the chair Sango was just in, "Kagome and the mall we all know what that means." Inuyasha snickered as Sesshomaru looked at them raising an eyebrow. "Every time we go to the mall, Kagome so dresses herself along with Kikyou and Sango up." Miroku said looking at Sesshomaru and back to Inuyasha. "Short skirts, tight shirts, revealing stuff." Inuyasha rolled his eyes, a slight idea of Kikyou and Kagome appearing in his mind, Kikyou with a short black leather skirt and a red shirt that exposed her shoulders completely coming down and forming long neon sleeves, Kagome wearing a matching skirt being white, the same shirt except it being pink. Inuyasha could feel himself grow hard under the covers, being red by his reaction suppressing the thoughts as Miroku continued.

"I swear Sesshomaru, they look so innocent now but when Kagome gets a hold of them, phew, they look good enough to make any human or demon alike look once, and then look again." Miroku said smirking slightly, "And may I say my girl looks exceptionally fine" Miroku boasted proudly. "Your girl…?" Inuyasha and Sesshomaru asked in union. "Sango of course, I may not be going out with her yet, but, I really do like her and…" Miroku started turning red running his hands through his hair nervously "Well you get the idea…" Miroku looked at the clock, "Well I better freshen up myself, and can I leave you too in the same room without killing each other til you reach the mall?" "Feh" Inuyasha said as Miroku walked out the door.

Sesshomaru looked off quietly, putting the book on the shelf gently, looking out the window. "Within the last few days, I have shown more emotion then I have in my entire life…and this emotion…" Sesshomaru felt bitterness and anger in his gut when he just heard Miroku liked Sango.

Oy! Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha called stubbornly sitting up, going through his suitcase, sliding on a white shirt, a red checkered shirt over that, his white shirt coming out at the bottom of his sleeve, as Inuyasha rolled them up over it slightly.

Sesshomaru watched his brother as Inuyasha slid his navy jeans on and stuck his wallet in his pocket, brushing his silver hair back as Sesshomaru spoke calmly "What?"

Inuyasha stared at his brother for a minute approaching him slowly, a worried look held in Inuyasha's eyes as Sesshomaru scented Inuyasha's worried confused scent, Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow as Inuyasha put his hand on his shoulder, such gestures were not necessarily permitted between them, for the fact if there hands were on each other it's because one was trying to kill the other.

"You haven't been yourself lately"

"It's no concern of yours"

"Actually it is"

"When have you cared?"

"Since it might have to deal with Sango"

Sesshomaru twitched, that girls name…ugh…now he couldn't even hear it and think properly, damn her. Inuyasha looked at him confused sitting down at the edge of the bed. "You don't like her do you?"

Sesshomaru growled "Of course I don't"

"Remember what happened to father" Inuyasha spoke his voice soft as he looked on passively at Kohaku.

"Chicue…"

A littler Sesshomaru stood there watching his father the great demon lord, stand strong as a youkai stood dark before them.

"You know the punishment for being with a human."

"I do."

"It means something to kill a human to a demon who was willing to sacrifice her life." The demon smirked holding up Inuyasha's mother by the throat. "And the worst punishment is to watch it." Inutaisho tilted his head down, anger radiated through his body, his power shaking the building, a little Inuyasha cried in his fathers arms. Inutaisho couldn't take it, he was seconds from transforming, he couldn't let his sons suffer this, he lunged at the demon, the demon least expecting such a careless attack from such a great youkai, Inuyasha's mother falling limp as Inutaisho pinned the man down. "Give Inuyasha to Sesshomaru! Run!"

Inuyasha's mother ran, tears streamed her eyes her pale skin bruising around the neck as she picked up Inuyasha, running out the door Sesshomaru being right there. Inuyasha's mother knelt before him, handing him a small bundle. "Father's orders?" Sesshomaru asked looking at her skeptically, the women before him nodding. "He wishes me to take care of this lowlife, it will be killed." Sesshomaru stated tears running down the women's face. "Sesshomaru…you know the law is trying to save the hanyou's, if you can save him until then…" sadness was deep within her eyes and Sesshomaru could tell she was going impatient.

Sesshomaru looked at her, as the building shook violently, "He's transforming" Sesshomaru stated looking up as Inuyasha's mother bolted into the building. Sesshomaru had watched as the youkai pierced through Inuyasha's mother within a second, the demon holding the women's limp body, holding it up for Inutaisho to see. "Do you see Inutaisho? It's a SIN to have feelings that's what makes you a demon, that's why you don't care for humans!" The demon spoke the women opening her eyes the slightest, she coughed blood, she could hardly breathe and she didn't wanna try. "Lord…please…be alright." Sesshomaru stood as he watched Inuyasha's mother close her eyes for the last time.

Sesshomaru looked at the little hanyou in his arms, he could tell the child was feeling his mother's death, his little nose twitched and his body shook, tears brimmed the child's eyes as he looked as his mother's lifeless body. Sesshomaru turned his sleeve over the child's eyes; his words were quiet as he spoke to the hanyou. "Don't look…Because you'll never forget."

Sesshomaru turned from the building, he heard his fathers pained cried, his anger boiling, first thing in the morning, he flicked on the t.v a view of the demons' body along with his father's, bloodied and burnt. The image of his fathers body twisted and burned never left his mind, he knew his father would never died that way, only feelings got in the way.

"I swear I will not feel." Sesshomaru said picking up Inuyasha as they walked upstairs, Sesshomaru looking down at him. "You're my witness, I will not feel." Sesshomaru stated quietly the little hanyou giggling slightly as Sesshomaru rolled his eyes and set him on the bed.

+end flashback+

Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru, his eyes distant.

"Sesshomaru?"

"I don't remember"

"Sesshomaru even I…"

"Even you what?"

"I remember what you said 'Don't look you'll never forget..' I don't know why…I can't remember but I know you said it that day our parents were killed."

"Your parents" Sesshomaru snapped angrily

"Your father" Inuyasha snapped matching his tone

"I have no father" Sesshomaru roared, his hand clenching, as Inuyasha looked down and over at the clock.

"Let's go…we have 20 minutes…" Inuyasha whispered as he walked out the door Sesshomaru not to far behind.

"Ahh Sango!" Kagome squealed "You look hot!" Kagome said happily.

Sango looked at herself in the mirror, she could hardly recognize herself, she was hot, she wasn't torn or ugly like she normally felt.

"Uh, Kagome-chan, may I have a minute." Sango asked quietly standing in front of her full length mirror. "Of course! I have to a last minute adjustment to Kikyou's make-up and then I'll be right back!" Kagome said shutting the door slightly.

Sango touched her neck softly, her brown hair was in a messy bun, she wore a pink tube top, with a silk oriental skirt going a few inches above her knees. "I'm lucky I'm going into the mall or else I freeze." Sango muttered softly, putting on the heels Kagome had suggested. They were rather simple but it gave her a couple inches and matched her outfit perfectly, leave it to Kagome to know her fashion.

Sango looked at herself; her knees were cut open two band-aids on her knees a few bruises were there too from her fencing classes. Sango smiled sadly to herself, "I can't be hot or beautiful, or anything like that…" Sango said looking at her reflection "I can't be anything like that, when I'm a born flaw." Sango felt tears brim her eyes, luckily she wouldn't let Kagome do her makeup or else it would have bleeding off her face. Sango whipped her eyes, almost as if she had never cried as she walked out the door.

Kikyou turned around; Kagome smiled "What do you think?" Kikyou turned around, Kikyou usually wore her hair in a very different way, not that Sango could talk her hair was pretty different but now… Kikyou's hair flowed to the center of her back, Kagome had cringed it, and Kikyou had light red lips showing the rosy pink of the lip gloss. Her skirt was red and leather, a white shirt on exposing her shoulders, coming down into long sleeves, a pink ribbon on her neck, and the bow in the back.

Kikyou blushed as she touched her face, Kikyou to was like Sango…they both felt so scarred but no one even noticed, that or just no one cared. Sango put her hand on Kikyou's shoulders as they looked at each other in the mirror, Kagome putting her arm around Sango's. Her boasting reflection was the only one, she wore a shirt similar to Kikyou's hers being baby blue, and a skirt a leather blue, her eyes had blue eye shadow.

"Let's go!" Kagome said grabbing the two girl's hands as they raced to the car and ended up at the mall within a few seconds.

Sesshomaru and the other guys sat by the water fountain, dead center in the mall. "How are you sure the girls will come here?" Sesshomaru asked, Miroku smirked slightly "Girls are predictable, they always come here. Don't you agree Inuyasha?" Inuyasha's jaw was open as he stared towards the double door, Miroku and Sesshomaru followed his surprised look there jaws dropping as well. "Men welcome to heaven." Miroku moaned as the girls approached them slowly.

Kagome smiled at there perverted glares, her and Kikyou both taking a seat on opposite ends of Inuyasha. Inuyasha could feel himself groan his member tightening, it was impossible to keep his mind out of the gutter them both being so close and…Inuyasha shook his head vigorously. "Are you alright?" Kikyou asked concerned. "We don't look that bad do we?" Kagome said smiling as Inuyasha rapped his arms around both of them, "Of course not!" he smiled his goofy little smile that he gave off when he was nervous. Kikyou and Kagome looked at each other both busting into a fit of giggles as Inuyasha looked at them in confusion.

Sango stood before Miroku and Sesshomaru both people looking at her, wondering what they were thinking. Sango studied over Miroku's perverted glaze, yep, there was no doubt in her mind what he was thinking. Sango looked into Sesshomaru's golden eyes, Sango sighed 'he's so hard to read…' as she took a seat beside the water fountain a few inches from Inuyasha, Kagome and Kikyou. Sango suddenly realized, "Why did I want Sesshomaru to notice me?" Sango's cheeks flamed red as she looked over at Miroku and Sesshomaru talking, his silver hair was down today not up in its neat little pony tail it was normally in, and Sango could feel her blush increasing. 'Oh no! I need to stop; I like Miroku…Miroku….the player, the pimp, the one who only likes my body…' Sango thought as someone tapped her on her shoulder, it being Sesshomaru and Miroku.

"Why are you wondering off?" Sesshomaru questioned nonchalantly

Miroku nodded in agreement, his arm snaking around Sango's waste and Sesshomaru felt that nasty feeling grow stronger in his gut as Miroku stroked Sango's thigh. Sango turned ten shades of red as Miroku rubbed into her thigh. "That pervert..." Sango thought, but she just couldn't bring herself to slap him. She looked up at Sesshomaru his killer glare at Miroku now vanished and he was looking off over at blue haired demon.

Sango felt a slight hurt as she followed Sesshomaru's gaze, the demons hair was blue and very fine, a seashell in her hair, a simple long blue dress on, her eyes widening as she raced over to the group. Sango looked shocked as she wrapped her arms around Sesshomaru's neck lovingly jumping into his arms. "Sesshomaru!" She cooed lovingly as Sesshomaru looked at her in shock. Sango bolted up as she looked at the demon, the demon now looking over at Sango's jealous glare, Inuyasha, Kikyou, and Kagome, rising up watching in confusion as the demon held out her hand smiling brightly.

"Sorry for not introducing myself sooner, I just couldn't help it when I saw Sesshomaru." The demon said as Sango glared at her hand, slipping her own between it. Sango shut her eyes, small flames radiating off her body as the two merely stood there clenching each others hand. The demon speaking her eyes still closing a smile plastered to her face.

"I'm Arimi, Sesshomaru's ex girlfriend."

"I'm Sango, Sesshomaru's friend." Sango said, Sesshomaru looked at the two taking a step back by Inuyasha's side, Kikyou and Kagome could see the jealousness over Sesshomaru, Miroku being totally oblivious to any form of disliking to each other.

"I thought you cast Arimi off ALONG time ago!" Inuyasha muttered whispering into Sesshomaru's ear.

"I did it's been centuries!" Sesshomaru muttered annoyed, his mind began to wander a bit.

"Arimi, I can no longer be with you any more." Sesshomaru spoke coolly, his hair whipping in the wind, the salty sea smell covered him as they walked along side the beach water.

"Sesshomaru-sama…" She whispered tears brimmed her eyes as she held the shell he had just given her. "I told you I'd never disobey you Sesshomaru-kun, but I'll love you forever." Arimi whispered, her hand touching his cheek gently, closing her eyes as she kissed the corner of his lips, a sworn promise by youkai law that she would never break her word, turning around and bolting off down the beach.

Sesshomaru shook his head, it had at least been a few years since that day, but maybe having Arimi around again wasn't the worst thing. Sesshomaru smirked Sango's angry expression filling his mind as he chuckled to himself.

Kagome looked around grabbing Sango's hand, "Shopping time guys!" she said as she grabbed Sango's hand, the group walking off, laughing and smiling. Sesshomaru and Arimi walked behind a little bit, Sango looked back over her shoulder sadly.

'Why should I care if Sesshomaru likes her again…' Sango said Miroku rapping a hand around her waste gently "Are you okay babe?" Miroku asked hanging back a little looking at her concerned. "Yea" Sango said smiling slightly "Go ahead and have fun" She said nudging Miroku ahead with Inuyasha and the others.

Sesshomaru looked at Sango as Miroku left her side and she walked alone, she seemed so lonely…

"Sesshomaru?" Arimi said whispering slightly

"Nani?"

Arimi looked down 'he's using Japanese again…he must be thinking about something really important to him… well he'll only answer if I talk in Japanese most likely…'

"Daishobu?" Arimi asked quietly as Sesshomaru looked at her passively.

"Hai." Sesshomaru answered being totally unaware that their conversation was in Japanese and not in English.

Arimi looked down; looking at the girl called 'Sango' is she his problem? Maybe I could ask…

"Is she where your concern lies?" Arimi asked looking up at Sesshomaru.

"Hai" Sesshomaru shook his head "What?" Arimi looked at him,

"To late my dear Sesshie, you have answered my question." Arimi said smirking slightly as she waved her goodbye's bolting down through the mall.

"Arimi!" Sesshomaru shouted, 'how dare her…' Sesshomaru growled, 'taking advantage…'

Arimi smiled as she ran through the mall, bolting out into the cool fresh air, her blue hair sparkling under the winter moon. 'Sesshomaru's concerned for this girl, rather it's a good or negative way, I do not know, but if I eliminate his problem, he will be relaxed once again I must kill Sango.'

Everyone returned with bundles of shopping bags, Kagome slapping a bracelet onto Sango's wrist, everyone laughing as the exsited, Inuyasha taking ov his newly bought sweatshirt on Kagome, and his checkered shirt on Kikyou as the three walked out the door, Miroku smiled looking at Sango as she looked at him.

"I have a present for you" Miroku said smiling

"You do? Miroku… you shouldn't have…" Sango said turning red, meaning every word, he really shouldn't have.

"Close your eyes." Miroku said Sango shut her eyes gently, Miroku's lips brushing her own as Sango opened her eyes, and Miroku was gone.

Sango turned red touching her lips gently, "He just kissed me…"

Sesshomaru looked at her as she shivered the cold night air embracing her skin willingly; Sesshomaru removed his jacket and set it on Sango's shoulders nonchalantly. Sango smiled "Thank you Sesshomaru." Sesshomaru looked on, as Sango spoke again, "Umm…Sesshomaru… I'm glad…" He looked at her confused as Sango continued.

"That you're not with Arimi anymore I mean." Sango said turning red as Sesshomaru opened the car door for her, climbing into the driver's seat. "Me too." Sesshomaru said as he headed off towards home.
