"Full, full, full. I must say that was an excellent meal. My compliments to the chefs." Miroku sat back in his chair beaming and paying his stomach.
"Of course, you say it was excellent. You and Inuyasha cooked, or have you already forgotten that part? I think I give it a passable. You lose points for bragging." Rin smirked as she watched Miroku's face fall slightly.
"Enough chit-chat, I do believe we have some movies to watch. Whose turn is it to pick the movie?" Kagome asked.
"I believe it's my turn," Inuyasha replied with an evil grin on his face. "I believe we are on the fourth one."
Kagome, Sango and Rin groaned to themselves as Inuyasha pulled out the set of Rocky movies and grabbed the correct disc. He slipped the movie in and sat on the couch next to Kagome. Rin was sitting in one of the recliners. Sango and Miroku were cuddled together on the loveseat.
Before the movie was half over Rin was asleep in her chair, Sango's head was on Miroku's shoulder while she slept, and Kagome was asleep with her head on the back of the couch.
When the movie ended Miroku turned to Inuyasha. "Do you think we should move them to their beds?" he asked.
"They would be more comfortable. Can you get Sango? I'll get Rin and Kagome." Inuyasha picked Rin up in his arms and carried her to her room.
Miroku watched Inuyasha effortlessly pick up Rin and carry her to her room. 'I may not have demonic strength, but I'm no slouch either,' he thought to himself as he carefully stood up. Careful to not wake Sango he lifted her gently into his arms. He was grateful his active lifestyle kept him in good shape as he carried her upstairs and to her room.
Miroku placed Sango on her bed and covered her with a blanket. He watched her sleep for a few minutes while thinking of how much he enjoyed carrying her into her room and wouldn't mind carrying her over another threshold sometime soon.
Inuyasha waited until Miroku had started upstairs before he went back to get Kagome. He lifted her gently into his arms and carried her to her bed. With one arm he supported her weight, with the other hand he pulled her covers down. He slipped her onto the sheets and covered her up. He watched her sleep for a moment then leaned forward. He wanted to kiss her, but instead he come to brush her hair off her head. Sighing to himself he turned around and went to clean up the mess that was left behind.
A/N Because I feel REALLY bad a bout the looooong time between updates and because I've been at home not feeling well (again) I decided to post another chapter. Consider it a present to all the people still out there reading my story. Feel free to let me know if you notice anything off about my stories. Like for example if I switch from 3rd person to 1st person, or if I switch from past to present tense. Or if you're confused and have no idea what's going on. It has been a bit between chapters and while I try to go back and make sure I'm not leaving holes or contradicting myself I'd rather read other people's stories and just write mine. Thanks everyone for reading my story. Hope you all like it so far :)
