CHAPTER 15
Busted
Miroku woke with a warm body clinging to his own. The body refused to let him move. He chuckled at the sight. Sango, the woman he has been trying to win over, was finally sleeping in his arms. What he didn't expect was that she would cling to him like this in her sleep. Her face was soft against his hard chest, and when he kissed the top of her head, she sighed, smiled and nuzzled closer.
"Wish I could wake up like this every morning," he told himself, smiling softly,
He rubbed her arm softly, trying to release her grip. He moved her hands gently from his body and slowly rose from the bed.
Hmmm, I need to shower. I smell horrible, he thought, giggling at the reason. Sango had woken up to go to the bathroom sometime the previous night, only to return to an awake Miroku, not being able to control himself. It wasn't his fault she took off her robe, and got into bed again -naked. He looked around the dim room, trying to locate some form of his clothing. He could only find his jeans. He pulled them on and softly left the room.
He retraced the previous visits and located the bathroom. There were clean towels on the small table. He turned on the warm water, adjusted it with the cold, removed his pants, and got in.
Kagome awoke to the sound of the shower. Her movement caused two strong arms to pull her closer to its body. Sesshomaru growled softly, pulling her closer. She giggled.
Who would have thought, she tried again to get out of his grip. Finally, she managed an escape. She sat back down on the side of the bed, taking in the sleeping Sesshomaru. His face was softer when he slept. His boyish features slightly showed in his angular face. His white locks fell across his shoulders and back. She could stare at him all day, but decided to wake him with some coffee in bed, before having to throw him out. She didn't want to, but since Sango was awake, she might try and explain things. She smiled at Sesshomaru again, kissing him softly on the forehead, making him sigh and smile.
Kagome quietly opened the door and walked towards the kitchen. She was trying to be as quiet as possible, taking out some pans for breakfast and cups for coffee. She started on their breakfast, not forgetting Sango, just in case she would be mad.
Sango woke up to an empty bed. She felt a pang in her chest, until she noticed Miroku's clothing thrown across the room. She blushed lightly, feeling very happy. She heard someone in the kitchen, and since Kagome hasn't knocked on her door yet, she thought it was Miroku, trying to figure out the kitchen. He giggled at the thought of him trying to cook for her.
Might as well try and explain things to Kagome before she wakes up, Sango decided. She dressed into a robe and started towards Kagome's room. She didn't want to cause trouble. She decided to check on Shippou before going to Kagome.
She entered Shippou's room, noticing that he has not returned from the day before.
That is so odd... Maybe he arranged something with Kagome to sleep at a friend's?
Sango noticed all the clothing and sighed, MEN!
She started picking up the clothing that was sprayed across the floor.
Miroku got out of the shower. He dried off and pulled on his jeans again. He could smell breakfast and coffee coming from the kitchen.
Sango is so sweet... She is already making me food... I think I should go give her a hand... She can't think I am an ass already.
Miroku hung up his towel and left for the kitchen, walking as silently as possible, not to wake Kagome. As he turned the corner to go towards the kitchen, Sango walked out of Shippou's room, carrying a small plastic basket. She decided it was time to go speak to Kagome, as she would be awake any minute. As she was about to knock, she heard Kagome's scream coming from the kitchen. She turned around to head to the kitchen, when an ominous aura appeared behind her. Kagome's door swung open with a loud thud.
"KAGOME!" a deep, familiar voice spoke loudly behind her, she turned around very slowly,
Sesshomaru was towering above her in Kagome's doorway. He was dressed in nothing more than his jeans. His white locks falling loosely across his torso. Sango blushed up at him, and he simply raised an eyebrow.
He pushed passed her, hurrying towards the kitchen. When he passed the corner, he grabbed the black-haired figure by the shoulder, pulling him away from the kitchen door. He slammed him into the wall, but stop when he recognised the half dressed man...
"Se-Sesshomaru?" / "Miroku?" they asked in unison,
Sesshomaru looked up at Kagome, who was frozen in shock, still holding a pan in her hands. Sango appeared slowly around the corner; looking just as shocked as her friend. The two women exchanged glances and burst out laughing like idiots.
Sesshomaru stepped away from Miroku, crossing his arms and looking at Kagome very sternly. Miroku's legs gave in, he slid down the wall, sighing and rubbing his head.
"I wan-wanted to tell yo-you" the two girls tried to explain through the laughter, both holding their stomachs.
"You should have seen, hagagagaga, you- you're face!" Sango laughed,
"I am sorry... I wasn't expecting him-him-hagagaga" Kagome tried to wipe the tears from her eyes,
Sesshomaru cleared his voice; Kagome looked up at him apologetically, and started laughing again,
"I am so sorry!" she walked towards him, her laughter dying down,
"You had me very worried," he opened his arms to her, she accepted the hug,
"I am sorry... I made you coffee?" she tried as an apology,
Sesshomaru kissed her head, holding her very protectively against his body,
"Are you all right, Miroku?" Sango helped him up; he placed his arm around her shoulders,
"Well this was rather unexpected," Miroku was still rubbing his head,
"It is," Sesshomaru looked down at Kagome, and then at Sango,
"It was just decided, I was going to tell you," Kagome explained to Sango,
"So was I," she hooked into Miroku, and the two woman started laughing again, the men just sighed.
"Well, uhhh, breakfast is ready?" Kagome tried, and Sango set the table.
Miroku and Sesshomaru just exchanged looks of confusion. But after a few minutes, the two couples lightened up and enjoyed their breakfast.
** Later that morning **
The doorbell rang as Sango and Kagome started with the dishes. Sesshomaru rose from his seat without a word and went to answer the door. Miroku just shrugged his shoulders. They continued chatting away.
Sesshomaru opened the door, finding Shippou and Rin holding hands. His frown made them jump apart. He stepped aside and they walked in, very quietly.
"Oh Shippou, you're home," Kagome's voice chimed as she skipped over to greet him with a hug,
"Geez, what the hell? You're surely in a good mood? Did you win the lottery or something?"
"Uhhh," was all Kagome could mutter as her face brightened.
Miroku's wink didn't help much.
"Why may your mother not be happy?" Sesshomaru towered over the teen.
"T-t-t-that-t's not what I meant, I-I-I," Shippou looked to Kagome in a panic,
Kagome just winked at him, signalling that Sesshomaru was just teasing – or at least she hoped he was.
"I want you to be happy mom! Really! Just as happy as a princess," he smiled a big toothy smile.
"I know my boy, I know," she motioned for him to come closer and he accepted the tight hug.
Rin smiled at their embrace, but Sesshomaru; knowing her better than she thought and wanted; could see the underling sadness. She wished for a mother figure in her life. Sesshomaru didn't want to include someone whom might later leave and break her fragile heart and spirit.
No! Sesshomaru wanted only the best for his little girl and would not settle for second best. He has never met anyone he deemed worthy as a mother to his bright young girl.
"And Rin…" Sesshomaru's train of thought came to a sudden halt when he heard Kagome's voice,
"I hope you enjoyed his company?" Kagome's arms where open, inviting Rin in for a hug of her own,
Rin's face lit up and she practically ran into Kagome's embrace.
"Oh yes! It was wonderful to have someone else there when Sessy weren't home!" Rin smiled wide,
Sesshomaru cleared his voice and everyone laughed. This was a first time any of them have seen Sesshomaru – the dark demon lord – in such a social and normal – if that was even the right word – environment.
"Well I am glad," Kagome winked at Sesshomaru who blushed slightly,
"Next time the sleep overs can be held here," Kagome patted Rin's head as her face lit up again,
"REALLY? Really? That would be so much fun!" Rin squeaked and Sesshomaru sent her a warning glare,
"Yes sweety. Really. Then we can get take-outs and maybe rent a movie…"
Miroku and Sango, who resumed a cuddling position on the sofa, just looked on with bright smiles.
"They are going to make an amazing family," Sango cooed,
"You are right. They will. I just hope they see it too," Miroku kissed her hair.
I hope ours will be amazing as well … and big … Miroku grinned internally.
