A/N: wow let's see here. ::thinks:: it's been five months since I've updated this story. I'm truly losing inspiration man, but I'm going to finish this story!!

"Show yourself!" InuYasha yelled. The voice softly chuckled and out from the bushes came the baboon form of Naraku. InuYasha growled lowly and flexed his claws in anger, only causing Naraku to laugh more. "Don't mock me you sick little bastard!" InuYasha charged at Naraku and failed to attack him.
"It's no use InuYasha, you cannot hurt me." Naraku said. His baboon form reached out and clawed at InuYasha, barely getting him. Some blood seeped out of InuYasha's cheek but he ignored the pain and attempted to attack Naraku, only succeeding in lunging forward like a complete idiot.
"I'm sick of your games, show your true self!" InuYasha exclaimed.
"That day will come, but not today." Naraku said. He disappeared shortly and reappeared in front of InuYasha. Naraku gave InuYasha a good cut in his chest and fled. Was he truly so cowardly that he would just give InuYasha a cut, or was that just a test? Either way InuYasha mentally cursed at both himself and Naraku as Miroku, Kagome, Shippo, and Sango came into view.
"InuYasha! Oh are you okay?" Kagome asked in a shaky, yet somehow whiny, tone of voice. Fear and worry were penetrated through her voice as she easily etched her fingers over his chest causing the hanyou to flinch.
"Don't touch me! I'm fine." InuYasha exclaimed and pulled away.
"Let me help you, I have some bandages!" Kagome yelled.
"No, I don't need your help, damn it Kagome leave me alone." InuYasha whined.
"I'm going to treat you!" Kagome said. She pinned a squirming InuYasha to the ground and was merely shoved aside.
"Don't! Why wont you leave me alone?" InuYasha yelled. "I'll be fine until we get to Kaede's" InuYasha began to walk away. The others continued behind him, everyone except Kagome who ran up to him hysterically, demanding him to at least stop in a village if she couldn't help him.
"Please, will you please?" Kagome asked.
"Fine as long as you shut up." InuYasha murmured. Kagome beamed joyously up at InuYasha and the group stopped in the nearest village. The all went in a small hut that was the clinic, and a young woman cared for his bruises and cuts.
"Can we go now?" an impatient InuYasha asked.
"InuYasha, you need to rest for a while." Kagome suggested. "Ma'am, may we spend the night here, so he can heal?"
"Yes, of course." The woman said.
"Thank you." Kagome said and smiled at the woman. "Come on InuYasha, let's go get a room." Kagome giggled and pulled InuYasha by the arm and into a room.
"I'll sleep in your room Miroku." Shippo said he hopped onto Miroku's shoulder happily. Miroku sighed and walked into a room. Sango picked up her boomerang, made her way into a room as well, and laid down on a futon. She dozed off to sleep slowly.
'I'm evil, no I'm horrible, no I'm a sick little pervert...he he he...' Miroku thought to himself and let out a light giggle. Sango shifted in her sleep causing Miroku to stand completely still. 'Be quiet!' He mentally scolded himself and sneaked in closer to Sango, attempting to grope her.
Miroku steadied himself atop Sango's angelic body and allowed a little bit of drool to drop from his mouth. The drool, just as fate would have predicted, landed right in between Sango's breasts causing Miroku to grow oddly aroused.
'Easy Miroku, control yourself.' He scolded himself again. After taking in two deep breaths, his hands just ever so coincidentally slipped on her breasts. They softly massaged her breasts as the hentai monk drooled massively. Just when he thought he would get away with removing her kimono, her chocolate eyes fluttered open slowly.
"Miroku?" she questioned aloud. Due to the fact that her brain didn't quite comprehend exactly what he was doing on top of her, she rubbed her eyes softly and yawned before she noticed Miroku struggling to get off of her. "What are you doing?"
"All I want to do is express my feelings towards you." Miroku said, but in his mind he thought, 'All I want to do is seduce you and have you bare my children.'
"What kind of feelings exactly?" she asked and gulped lowly, hoping that he couldn't sense her vulnerability. She subtly shifted her weight around on the futon as the purple-eyed man scooted in closer to her.
"I don't know, I can't describe them." He lied. "Every time that you're around my heart skips a beat." Miroku mentally laughed at how stupid and corny he sounded and just hoped that Sango would believe him.
"Really?" she asked. She unconsciously scooted closer to the monk and nervously bit her lower lip. She awaited his answer patiently as he glanced into her eyes.
"Yes." He said and gently cupped her face in his hands. "I need you more than ever Sango." His fingers gently eased over her face, his lips barely touched her lips, as he wanted so much more than to kiss her. "Say you love me, please?" He was half hoping that she would say that she loved him and the other half didn't want her to say that she loved him because he didn't want to play with her feelings.
Sango sat in silence as soon as they pulled away from each other. Did she love him? Could her heart and voice tell him that she loved him? Of course not, she was just playing with herself, thinking that she actually loved him. She shook her head mentally and glanced into his deep purple eyes.
"I-" She began. She choked up. How could she have choked up at a time like this? 'Maybe I do love him...' she thought to herself. "I don't know." She admitted and heaved a sigh. "There's a part of me that's telling me yes, and another part that's saying no."
Miroku mentally sighed. He didn't want Sango to know that he was actually playing with her and instead he wrapped his arm around her and grinned devilishly.
"Maybe I can help your answer." He said and gently kissed her lips. The kiss, though not very long, steamed a fire deep down inside Sango, telling her that she, too, needed him. She felt him pressing himself harder onto her. She knew that if they kept things up that they would both be under the covers naked in a matter of moments.
"Miroku." She airily whispered into his ear sending chills running through his spine. "I love-" she was cut off by the door to the room barely cracking open. Somehow Miroku managed to remove himself off of Sango and sprint to the door to hide himself.
"Sango, are you okay?" Kagome asked wearily as she rubbed her eyes softly. "I had heard you scream something so I came in to check on you."
"I'm fine, Kagome." She responded and nervously rubbed her arm. "I just, had a nightmare."
"Oh, okay." Kagome said. "That's the last time I get out of bed when me and InuYasha are getting it on...," she mumbled lowly before leaving.
Miroku approached Sango once again and sat down next to her. "That was a close call." He whispered.
"Yeah...um...Miroku..." she trailed off. "C-can you leave? I've to sleep now, I really am tired." Even though the monk didn't believe her story too well, he left her with a nod. He couldn't believe that she had nearly told him that she loved him and she was telling him to get out of her face practically.
'I'm going to get you right where I want you.' He thought to himself, as he lay down on his own futon alone.
---The Next Day---
"Get your lazy asses up! Come on I want to go back to Kaede's!" InuYasha yelled at Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango. "We don't have time to eat!"
After about a half hour the group finally left the clinic and began their walk to Kaede's hut. "You guys are so slow; can we go just a little faster?" InuYasha whined.
"Well, if you would let me ride on your back, and if we had Kirarra with us then maybe." Kagome said. InuYasha muttered something that sounded like he was cursing someone to the lowest depths of Hell, but no one could really make out what he was saying.
Two hours later the gang finally made their way into Kaede's hut. InuYasha looked rather irate about the fact that everyone was at least twelve feet behind him. Kagome was rubbing her feet from the long walk, Sango and Shippo plopped down on the floor, and Miroku stood behind Sango.
"Ah, I see that ye all have come back." Kaede said, pointing out the obvious. "Would ye like something to eat?"
"Sure!" InuYasha exclaimed. Him, Kagome, and Shippo all made their way over to the little table that Kaede owned as Sango and Miroku stayed behind.
"Sango, we need to talk." Miroku whispered in her ear.
