Chapter 5: The Plan
"Did you tell her??" Miroku asked as soon as Inuyasha walked through the door.
"No." Inuyasha said in a pissed voice.
"WHY NOT?" Miroku shouted at him.
"Feh, cause."
Miroku looked at him, "Why don't … Why didn't…" Miroku just stared at him. Then, he got a huge grin on his face. "Is the Almighty Inuyasha… scared?"
"What?! N-No! I just, she had to go-" Inuyasha stuttered, he hung his head. "I'm not good with words… how am I supposed to know I'm even in love with her?"
Inuyasha sat on the floor.
"How could she love a hanyou?" Inuyasha said and looked up at Miroku.
Miroku slumped down next to Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, when was the last time you went without talking to Kagome for more than two days?" Inuyasha thought, but couldn't remember. "Inuyasha, who do you stay up until 2 a.m. talking to? Who has never missed any of your recitals? Who-" Miroku broke off. He had had a Eureka! moment. He grinned from ear to ear.
"What?" Inuyasha said. Miroku started, "You could, you could write a song for her, and sing it to her."
Inuyasha looked at him bewildered
"Write, a song, a love song, to her?"
Miroku shook his head,
"Not to her, for her. Inuyasha, face it, your right, your horrible with words in conversation, but when you write songs, you basically become, well, Romeo! You could sing to her, heck I'll help, I'll play bass or keyboard!" Miroku said moving his fingers, as if playing and invisible piano.
"I could write a song to- for her… I could sing it to her… After my next recital…" Inuyasha smiled and jumped up, "Yeah, I'll do it… I'll get her a gift too." Inuyasha thought for a while, "A charm bracelet." Miroku jumped up too.
"Inuyasha if I give you money to pay for the bracelet and charms, c-could you do me a favor?" Miroku asked. Inuyasha blinked at him, "Sure… what?"
"Well after you write the song… when you sing it to her, can you also sing it with Sango there? And can I steal your idea too?"
"What do you mean steal my idea?" Inuyasha asked suspiciously,
"I mean, you know, give Sango a charm bracelet too…" His voice grew faint.
Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders, "Feh, fine do what you want…" Inuyasha headed to his room.
"Ok! I'll put in the order for two of the finest gold charm bracelets!" Miroku shouted as Inuyasha reached the top of the staircase. He turned around, "No, not gold… it's to bright, to much overwhelming power, to harsh, ... Kagome isn't like the sun, she more like- like the moon… Yes, a soft glowing orb of beauty…" Inuyasha looked up, "Miroku, order a silver one for Kagome."
"A glowing… ok! One silver charm bracelet. Gold is like the sun… power…" Miroku started muttering to himself.
Inuyasha walked to his room wondering how to begin writing a song for Kagome.
