Love and love again

What is taking Inuyasha so long? Kagome thought to herself. She just shook her head. Kagome reached the village and saw Miroku and Sango sitting down talking….like actually talking, no perverted moments or anything. She was shocked. Shippo had fallen asleep beside them and looked so peaceful.

"Well what's going on here?" Kagome asked. Sango and Miroku looked at each other.

"Nothing…" Sango said blushing. Miroku nodded.

"Where is Inuyasha?" Miroku asked trying to change the subject. Kagome laughed.

"Well I told him a little something about the guy I like and he's still trying to figure it out." Kagome said. Sango and Miroku laughed. They both knew who it was.

"Inuyasha, he is so dense" Sango said.

"He wouldn't have known you liked him if it slapped him in the face!" Miroku said. Kagome glared at Miroku. Shippo woke up.

"Can't you be quite!" Shippo moaned as he rolled over. The three of them laughed. Kagome picked Shippo up.

"I'll take him to the hut to sleep" She giggled. Sango and Miroku nodded. Kagome took Shippo over to the hut; she laid him down and watched him sleep.

"How peaceful…." She whispered. Just then Inuyasha burst into the hut.

"KAGOME I FIGURED OUT WHO IT WAS!" Inuyasha shouted. Kagome looked at Inuyasha.

"SHHHHHHHH…" Kagome said. "Shippo is sleeping!" Shippo sat up.

"Inuyasha! BE QUITE!" He shouted. Kagome glared at Inuyasha.

"Either get out or I'll sssss……" Kagome said. Inuyasha knew what was coming next so he ran out of the hut as fast as he could. Inuyasha slumped down by where Sango and Miroku where sitting.

"What's wrong, the puppy looks sad!" Miroku said. Inuyasha glared at Miroku. Sango tried so hard not to laugh, but Inuyasha knew she wanted to.

"Hmpht……" Inuyasha said as he got up and walked away.

"Come on, I was only joking!" Miroku said. Inuyasha shrugged. Kagome came out a moment later and saw Sango punch Miroku in the arm.

"Nice going monk!" She said. Miroku rubbed the spot that Sango had hit him.

"Oh no…..what happened now? And where is Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. She looked around.

"Well see, Miroku was teasing Inuyasha then he got up and walked off," Sango said. Kagome sighed.

"What way did he go?" Kagome asked. Sango and Miroku pointed to where Inuyasha had walked off. They could see the little figure of their friend in the distance.

"Kay, I'll be back in a bit!" Kagome said. She ran and got her bike which was lying on the side of Keade's hut. She got it then hopped on and speed towards Inuyasha. She could see the small Inuyasha becoming bigger.

"Inuyasha wait up!" Kagome called. Inuyasha stopped and turned around. He saw Kagome and smiled a little bit. Kagome reached Inuyasha and got off her bike.

"Why did you leave?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha shrugged.

"I donno…." Inuyasha muttered.

"Don't be like that…." Kagome said. Inuyasha chuckled a little bit. "So where are we headed?" Kagome asked.

"We?" Inuyasha repeated. Kagome glared at Inuyasha.

"Fine I guess I'll leave……." Kagome said as she turned to get her bike.

"NO" Inuyasha said as he grabbed her trailing hand. Kagome looked down at her hand then at Inuyasha. She smiled and blushed slightly. Inuyasha still didn't believe what he had just done. I grabbed here hand… He thought to himself.

In the village

Meanwhile in the village Shippo was still sleeping and Sango was left alone with the lecherous monk. Although Sango would be the last to admit it, she was actually have fun sitting and talking with Miroku.

"So, what do you think is up with Inuyasha and Kagome?" Miroku asked raising his left eyebrow. Sango rolled her eyes.

"What does it matter? Do you like Kagome or something?" Sango asked. When she asked that question her hopes fell while she waited for Miroku to respond.

"Do I like Kagome?" Miroku said. Hmmmm…I wonder why Sango would ask me such a question…Miroku thought. He glanced at Sango and saw she wore a small frown, one wouldn't notice unless they had very keen eyes for her.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have asked that….." Sango said apologetically.

"No need to fret my dear Sango, for I have no feelings of that sort for Kagome." Miroku said. Sango smile, she couldn't hide it, Miroku saw that smile and instantly knew what she was thinking. My dear Sango, it is nice to know that you too have feelings for me, he thought.

"I really prefer the strong, beautiful demon slayer types…." Miroku said. Sango looked at Miroku and blushed.

"Beautiful…..?" She asked. Miroku nodded.

With Kagome and Inuyasha

"Inuyasha….." Kagome said. Inuyasha looked at Kagome.

"I….ummm….well….you see….I was just……ummm….." Inuyasha stammered. Kagome smiled.

"No need to explain." Kagome said, she grabbed onto Inuyasha's hand and stood beside him.

"Ummm….Kagome….wanna take a walk?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome nodded.

"Yep, that would be nice." She said with a smile. Inuyasha and Kagome strolled along a nice quite forest path, they walked in silence, neither of them knew what to say to the other. Inuyasha kept looking at Kagome, and thinking to himself. It isn't that hard to show her how I feel, it's just around the others…but they'll get suspicious if I always take Kagome away and…ARGH! I don't know!

"What's wrong?" Kagome asked Inuyasha. Inuyasha looked at her.

"Oh nothing, just thinking….." Inuyasha replied.

"Really? What about?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha turned bright red, and Kagome got the hint that it was probably about her. She laughed.

"Never mind then…" Kagome said, giggling to herself.

"What's so funny wench?" Inuyasha said with a mischievous smile.

"You, silly puppy!" Kagome said as she rubbed Inuyasha's ears.

"HEY! STOP THAT! THAT TICKLES YOU KNOW!" Inuyasha shouted. Kagome rubbed Inuyasha's ears some more than ran off laughing. Inuyasha growled.

"I'll get you wench!" He shouted.

"Only if you can swim!" Kagome called, then there was a splash sound in the distance. Inuyasha ran towards the sound. When he got there he saw Kagome swimming around in the river.

"What are you doing?" He asked. Kagome giggled.

"Swimming silly!" Kagome said. "Come on in! The water is great!" she said as she floated a top the water. Inuyasha moaned, and Kagome looked up. She got out of the water and stood beside Inuyasha dripping wet. She grabbed his hand tightly and jumped into the water, dragging Inuyasha with her.

"KAGOME!" Inuyasha growled. Kagome swam away.

"What are ya gonna do?" She asked. Inuyasha swam after her and caught her by the ankle. He pulled Kagome closer and looked into her eyes.

"That's what I was gonna do!" Inuyasha said with a smirk. Kagome looked into his golden eyes and was in heaven. She closed her eyes and leaned in to kiss Inuyasha. Inuyasha was shocked but saw that no one was around so he kissed Kagome back.

In the Village

Sango was looking at Miroku. Did he just say what I think he said? She thought to herself. Miroku wasn't sure of what to do himself either. He had just confessed his love to Sango and she hadn't reacted the way it had played out so many times in his head. In his head he saw himself and Sango talking and she asked the same question about Kagome, but only when he answered that question Sango flung her arms around him and kissed him. Miroku frowned at the thought of that no coming true.

"What's wrong?" Sango asked. Miroku looked at her.

"Well this isn't they way it was in my head….." Miroku said rubbing the back of his head. Sango was shocked.

"And exactly HOW did it go in you Cough lecherous Cough head?" Sango asked curiously. Miroku disregarded Sango's comment.

"Well in my mind, when I told you, you flung your arms around me and….well….kissed me…" Miroku replied. Sango smiled.

"Oh….you mean…..like this?" Sango asked. She flung her arms around Miroku's neck and kissed him.
