Miroku stares at Inuyasha, slightly taken aback. "You…you're in love with her?" he asks. Inuyasha turns pink. "Yes," he says, looking down. "I never even felt this way when I was with Kikyo." That, Miroku knew, was saying something. Inuyasha had such a strong connection with Kikyo in the past. Even today, it was hard for him to forget about her. If he loved Kagome more than he did Kikyo…that really meant something. Something special, and they both knew it. Miroku thinks for a moment. He knows what he has to do, now.

"Kagome," Sango begins. "Does he know this?"

"Well, I've never told him, if that's what you mean. I couldn't. He'd never feel the same way. He can't forget Kikyo. Even after all he's been through with her, and all she's put us through, he still loves her."

"I see…" Sango drifted off. She had a plan.

Later that evening, Miroku pulls Sango aside. "Sango," he says. "May I have a word with you?" Sango nods, knowing she needs to talk to him, as well. As they get up, Kagome looks up. "Where are you off to?" she asks.

"We, uh, just need to stretch." Miroku says. Inuyasha huffs. "Yeah, that's all?" he says under his breath. Miroku and Sango go off into the woods to walk and talk. "Sango, I've just had a talk with Inuyasha," Miroku begins. "And, there's something that we need to do." Sango nods. "Yes, I've been talking to Kagome, as well. She confessed something to me."

"Yes, Inuyasha confessed something to me, also. It turns out that he is in love with Lady Kagome."

"Kagome and I were talking about what happened in her time. I expect he told you the same. She tells me that she feels the same. But, then she thought of Kikyo—"

"Ah, but she's not in the picture. Inuyasha said that he's never felt this way, not even around Kikyo. I think we all know that must mean something real."

"Of course. So, what do we need to do? We must get them together some how."

"Okay, I've been thinking. Here's what we'll do…"

I'm sorry this chapter was so short, but I'm starting to run out of ideas! I've said it before, and I'll say it again: IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS FOR HOW THE STORY SHOULD GO, PLEASE SHARE.

XOXO
