Little Gifts
It started one day with little things - flowers pressed between her things, delicate and smelling so sweetly. Then came poems - little ones, written nicely and with great care.
She wasn't sure who was so stealthy to put them in her things without her noticing. They were usually in her bag or in her pouches containing various equipement of her profession. Once she fould a poem between the layers of her obi.
The nature of the poems helped her in narrowing the list of suspects down to two people - Miroku and Inuyasha. Shippou's gifts were usually only for Kagome (besides he was way too young to know some things mentioned in the poems or to write so skillfully) and the miko was never shy about giving her presents officially. So those two were not likelyy to leave pretty flowers and romantic haiku. While Inuyasha was pretty skilled with a brush he was no poet and picking flowers wasn't his thing. So it seemed the little gifts of affection were from Miroku.
It was nice to know he could do more than throw cheesy pick up lines or grope girls, but it wasn't enough to win Sango's heart. Not with him acting like he was - wooing all females around. Well, with Kagome being an exception.
He was showing his interest in her by leaving her little gifts, and by groping her, but it was a different matter and one she could punish him for in a painful way, so she decided to give him a sign of her own.
Kagome, Shippou and Inuyasha were looking at Sango throwing pieces of paper and dried flowers in the flame, and Miroku observing her like a hawk. The slayer was muttering while doing that:
"Three girls groped, fourteeen asked if they would bear his kids, seven told that they will have many children while reading their palms... All of this adds up and soon I will run out of stuff to burn...
