Chapter Eleven

Girl Talk

"So, how mad do you think those two are at us?" Ed was used to Winry being mad at him, he didn't know if it was the same way for Inuyasha and Kagome.

"Hmmm," A slam was heard from outside and Miroku and Sango yelling, "Well, at least we're not Miroku, he's a dumbass!"

"So, is he always a lecher?"

"Pretty much, lecher-boy is shameless; he has no problem copping a feel on anyone, especially Sango though. They love eachother. But Miroku always pisses her off by asking random women to bear his children, or by just feeling them up."

"Ah, Miss Winry, is it? I have a question to ask you!"

"Miroku you touch her and I'll kill you!" Ed rose and flew out the door, and slammed Miroku into a tree and started wailing on him, Hard.

"What's that about?" Winry was just watching Ed kill Miroku.

"Believe me, you don't want to know. Just stay as far away from Miroku as possible." Sango grabbed Winry around the shoulders and started to lead her away.

"Should I stop Ed?"

"If you like." Winry went over and hit Ed with her wrench again.

"Brother!" Al rushed over to help his dizzy brother.

"Just leave him alone, Al or I'll hit you, too."

"Gyaa, what did I do, Win? Wait, what did Ed do?"

"Nothing."

"But why did you hit him then?"

"No reason really."

"Okay."

"Dammit, woman! Get some damn Midol!" Ed had just regained consciousness.

"What! Dammit Ed!" She hit him repeatedly with the wrench, until Al pulled her off.

"You're going to kill him, Win!"

"That's the freaking point!" Sango pulled her away again.

"What is Midol?" Winry whispered the answer in her ear, causing Sango to blush terribly. Once her face returned to its original color, it only reverted to its blush, while Sango turned to slam Miroku in the head. "I much prefer you unconscious." Her tick mark appeared in its usual spot on her forehead.

"So what was he going to ask me?"

"If you'd bare his children."

"Oh. Why do you say that like it's nothing!"

"Oh, he asks every girl that, save for me."

"Why didn't he ask you?"

"I don't know." The hurt in her voice was evident. Winry could tell that it bothered her that he didn't ask her, but why? 'Why would she want him to ask her? He's a creep! Wait….maybe she…loves him!' "Do you love him?" She had waited to ask that until they were a good distance from camp.

"Who?"

"Miroku."

"Why, is it that obvious?"

"Kinda'."

Kagome ran up to join them. "What is obvious?"

"The fact that she loves Miroku." Sango was glaring blades at Winry 'Why would she tell her so simply?'

"You have to understand Sango, women can tell, Inuyasha, Miroku, Ed, Al, and Shippo are pretty much oblivious to this fact."

"Well they were until Shippo announced it the other day to everyone!" 'Dammit, Shippo!'

"Oh, no! He didn't did he!" Winry had dreaded the same thing happening with her and Ed.

"And Al announced that Ed loves you and that you are Ed's girlfriend." Kagome had felt it necessary to tell her new friend that much.

"I'll kill him!" Winry turned around and bolted toward camp. She NEEDED to hurt Al.

"Wait!" Both Sango and Kagome lunged to catch her, missed, and fell. "We have to catch her, Al will kill us!" They stood up and ran after her. Lucky for them, they could run much faster than Winry. They jumped for her and took her out. All three of them were lying on the ground talking after Sango and Kagome explained their reasoning.

"We had to stop you. We're sorry." Kagome looked at the ground somberly.

"I can understand that, I wouldn't want Al mad at me. He's far too nice of a guy to give up a friendship with him." Winry never did anything to make Al mad at her. Her thoughts turned to her crush. "What did Ed say to that?"

"His face got really red and she ran after Al and Shippo."

"Why Shippo?"

"Because he started singing 'Eddie has a girlfriend.'"

"That makes sense to me." She smiled brightly, 'it seems Ed likes me as well, maybe I will have to flirt. Wait… I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FLIRT!' (A/N: Believe me, it is possible, my sister doesn't know how to flirt…at all. No skills in that, she has 2 twins that like her and it's very funny to watch them flirt with her and watch her sit there helpless.) "Can you guys help me?"

"Help you what?"

"Flirt."

"You don't know how?"

"Not really, I've never been quite good with boys, except for being their friends, other than that no."

"Well, first, stop hitting him with your wrench…"

"How did you know it was Ed I wanted to flirt with?"

"Well, Miroku and Inuyasha are kind of taken, and you show no interest in Shippo or Al."

"Why are Miroku and Inuyasha taken?"

"Well…um… Inuyasha is in love with another woman and Miroku is… a lecher!" Sango was happy Kagome came up with that quick excuse.

"I see, you are in love with Inuyasha and Sango is in love with Miroku." Winry was happy to see that those two were as vulnerable as she was.

"Actually, what you said is true, but Inuyasha is really in love with another woman."

"Whom?"

"Well, Kagome is a priestess's reincarnation, and Inuyasha is in love with that woman as well as Kagome."

"You actually think Inuyasha is in love with me?"

"Of course, isn't it obvious?"

"Yeah, even though I wasn't here very long, even I could tell." This completely overjoyed Kagome, she still thought that Inuyasha's heart only belonged to Kikyo. "I mean; he didn't like to see you cry…"

"Wait no! That doesn't prove anything! He didn't like to see me cry even when we first met and he tried to kill me!"

"He tried to kill you!"

"Yeah, to get the Jewel."

"What Jewel?"

"The Shikon Jewel, the Jewel of Four souls."

"Why did he want it?"

"To become a Full demon."

"Like his murderous brother!"

"Yeah."
