A/N: Mak Dent asked for more MirSan. MirSan comes, but first...
Wanderer
It was late at night when Inuyasha was brought out from his light sleep. He sat against a wall in Kaede's hut, even there refusing to let his guard down and lay on a mat like everyone else.
He had to watch over his ragtag pack.
And right now some movement in the dark caught his attention. His golden eyes scanned the room and found that it was Miroku. It was hard to say if he was sleepwalking or just trying to crawl without waking the others, since he had his eyes shut. The hanyou watched the monk, a bit puzzled at his actions.
If Miroku wanted to go outside to answer a call of nature, why was he crawling so carefully across the floor? He kinda looked like a predator stalking its prey. Inuyasha glanced to what - or who - was on Miroku's path. A wide wicked grin spread across his lips, but he said nothing, wanting to see what the monk wanted to do.
If he was going to try and do anything Inuyasha would pounce at him. But he hoped Miroku just wanted to 'share body heat', because he really wanted to see what would happen in the morning.
Because he knew something Miroku didn't.
On the end of his crawling path wasn't Sango. The exterminator had went outside a minute before, probably to pee.
When a few minutes later the slayer came back she stopped and stared. Inuyasha gestured for her to stay quiet, so she carefully walked around the hut and took Miroku's discarded blanket to continue her sleep on the other side of the hut. They both watched Miroku crawling the last few centimeters and then curling against his new sleeping partner. As the monk sighed in contentment Sango and Inuyasha barely held their laughter under control.
At morning Miroku was brought back from pleasant dreams of his married life with Sango by Shippou and Kagome's laughter. He opened his eyes and realized he was laying by someone. Was he still dreaming of being married to Sango? Was it her who was next to him? He turned his head to smile at his lovely bride-to-be and gaped in shock and terror.
"Well, hello there, Miroku, it's so nice of you that you warmed my back," Kaede said in pure amusement and winked her one good eye at him. Behind his back Inuyasha and Sango laughed out loud, joining Kagome and Shippou.
