Chapter 2

The next morning was so much different than last night. It had looked like someone had taken over Miroku's body he was back to his normal self. Which unnerved Inuyasha to no end. The hanyou's ears flicked in frustratuin which was more than he was used to. He watched Miroku's hand grip Sango's backside and a resounding slap was followed by it making Inuyasha wince inwardly. That has to hurt.

" Hey,Inuyasha come over here and stop acting all grumpy.'' Miroku called from his usual resting place under the tree as he motioned Inuyasha to sit next to him. Miroku's mouth was pulled up in a smile making Inuyasha halt in his steps as he eyed the monk suspicously as he covered his ass with his hands.

" Hn,I'd rather not." Inuyasha said through his teeth as he saw Miroku's face fall slightly. Inuyasha got up an walked over. He grabbed Miroku by the arm and dragged him to the tree where they were hidden from the girls as Inuyasha pinned Miroku with his amber eyes. " Whats going on"

Miroku's violet eyes stared into Inuyasha's amber ones as he said sadly " I don't know" Miroku couldn't meet his eyes because when he did his heart seemed to speed up until he felt like he was going to pass out as he rested his head against the trunk of the tree.

Inuyasha's grip tightened on Miroku's upper arm as he growled in annoyance. " Fine,then you are staying here until you come up with a decent answer" Inuyasha let Miroku go as his eyes watched Miroku's.

Miroku's violet eyes widened in surprise as he stared at Inuyasha. He grabbed Inuyasha's shirt front his hand shaking as he laid his forehead against Inuyasha's chest listening to the rhythm of the hanyou's heart pound against his ear as he closed his eyes. " Don't leave me here please"

Inuyasha felt something in his heart jerk for the sadness he could hear in the monk's oice a she set his hand ont he monk's head and leaned his head down to whisper in Mioku's ear softly. " Whats wrong"

Miroku knew Inuyasha wasn't going to say anything to the others. But could he really risk letting Inuyasha know about his feelings. " I'm in love with someone,But it's not sango or kagome"

Inuyasha eyed the monk suspiciously as he sniffed him. " You don't look like a child molester" Inuyasha was dense sometimes when it came to decoding peoples emotions but then again after the way he was treated who could blame him for not wanting to deal with others emotions.

Miroku's cheeks turned red as he tried his best not to laugh. But that was pretty funny. " Um no I'm not,It's a male Inuyasha" Miroku watched the emotions cross Inuyasha's face he moved back afraid that Inuyasha was going to yell at him or something.

Inuyasha's mouth dropped open as he searched the monk's face for any sign of a lie. shit he's serious. " Y-Y-You like a guy Miroku"

Miroku could tell how nervous and red Inuyasha was getting. He almost died at how adorable he was. Miroku scooted closer as he nodded. " Yes I like a guy"

Inuyasha felt Miroku's body heat seeping into his body making him relax against the tree. " Wow,so who is this lucky guy that has caught your interest"

Miroku's eyes narrowed slightly but he realized Inuyasha was being serious as his cheeks heated. " I wouldn't say lucky exactly"

Inuyasha watched the monk's face as a weariness showed in the dark circles under his eyes. He is gorgeous. Inuyasha mentally slapped himself. what the hell was I thinking. " Well thats because you don't see yourself the way i do"

Miroku's face turned so they could look at each other. He had never heard something like that come out of Inuyasha's mouth. " What do you see"

Inuyasha's eyes locke onto Miroku's as the corners of his mouth lifted up in a smile. " I see someone who wants to be loved and give love in return. Thats what i see so goodnight" Inuyasha stood up walking away not noticing the monks smile.
