Miroku yawned, he had just left the clearing, in which he just spent 6 hours comforting Kikyo. "She's not that bad..." Miroku said, sad for Kikyo's hurt.

"I have to get back to the camp and explain to the others where I was...I don't know if InuYasha will be so accepting of it, though." Miroku said to himself, shaking his head.

-----

"We should go out looking for him." Sango said quickly, getting her demon bone boomerang. "Sango, relax, Miroku can take care of himself." InuYasha said, leaning against a tree, arms crossed.

"But, what if he got into trouble? He could be dead!" Sango said, waving her hands in the air. 'Wait...This must be how Kagome feels...But me and Miroku are engaged!' Sango thought, then dismissed it.

"Your just like Kagome." Shippo said, looking up. "What do you mean?" Sango asked, predicting the answer to herself. "She always worries about what the man she loves is doing, but you don't have to worry about him two timing you." Shippo explained, glaring at InuYasha as he said the last part.

"What?" InuYasha snapped, baring his teeth. "Kagome loves you!" Shippo yelled, getting on his feet and shoving an index finger at InuYasha. "Although, I really have no idea why." Shippo said, relaxing again, as he sat down.

"What's that suppose to mean?" InuYasha yelled, glaring at Shippo. "That, Kagome is in love with you, for reasons unclear to me, and you go off to see Kikyo, and that is hurting her feelings." Shippo said, and as he spoke the last four words, Shippo flicked InuYasha's nose.

"You little twerp!" InuYasha roared, grabbing Shippo and hanging him upside down by the legs, beganning to swing him. "." Kagome said, catching Shippo, who had been dropped and ran to her.

"Agh!" InuYasha said, as he was slammed into the ground.

(A/N What if InuYasha was fat and he got sat ontop of someone xD?)

Kagome gave a (Mushroom) sigh, and then sat down on a log. "Kagome." InuYasha said, seeing hurt on her face.

Sango glanced between the two, made a motion to Shippo, who then nodded and said, "Right...I'm going to go sleep at Kaede's hut." And off he was.

"And...I'm going to go look fo- Or hey Miroku!" Sango said gleefully, as Miroku approached them. Sango ran up to Miroku and put her mouth to his ear, "They're about to have a moment, let's go." She whispered quickly, getting on Kirara, Miroku following.

"Kagome..." InuYasha trailed off, trying to get her to speak to him. "Yes?" Kagome asked, turning her head towards him. InuYasha could see her eyes were puffy and red, she had been crying. "I- What happened to your arm?" InuYasha said, taking Kagome's arm and pointing at the long red mark on it. "The cat." Kagome said quickly, a perfect idea.

(A/N Hahaha....What's the cat's name xD?)

"Uh-huh..." InuYasha said, disbelieving. "Kagome....I-i...Don't know how to say this but...I'm sorry." InuYasha said quickly, reaching his hand towards Kagome. Kagome snapped her head up to the sky, "InuYasha, your always sorry, but...I don't want you to feel sympathy towards me..." She trailed off, staring at the stars.

"Then what do you want me to..." InuYasha was struck with how she wanted him to feel. Kagome had wanted him to feel that way about her very long. "Kagome..." InuYasha said, quickly drawing her to him and hugging her. "Kimi wo aishiteru." InuYasha said. Kagome's eyes widened as he said so. "InuYasha!" Kagome cried, before glomping him.

(A/N Kimi wo aishiteru means I love you!)

"Sango! I've found why Kikyo has been keeping InuYasha with her for so very long!" Miroku said gleefully. "Really? Why?" Sango said, glad to have an answer. "She's...Just afraid..." Miroku said, trailing off, almost in a dreamy stage.

"Afraid?" Sango asked, raising an eyebrow. 'Wait...He's been to see Kikyo?' Sango thought quickly, worried. "She wanted InuYasha to protect her, she doesn't love him!" Miroku seemed especially happy about the last part.

'She's so...Sweet...Am I started to have feelings for her?' Miroku thought, worried. 'No...I am irrevocably in love with Sango!' He corrected himself smiling. "Oh." Sango said, worry deep in her voice.

Miroku turned to her, and she turned to him. "Sango, don't worry, your my one and only." And with that, Miroku pulled Sango to him, and kissed her deeply.

'So...He's in love with the demon slayer, is he?' Kikyo thought to herself, watching them from a clearing. She didn't need sleep.

(A/N Dead clay pots don't usually sleep, no.)

'I'll just make him care more about me, much simpler.' She thought, nodding.
