Chapter 19: Getting Ready
Inuyasha sat on a branch in the God Tree while Kagome was inside "getting ready". The mall had been everything he had expected it to be. God aweful, boring, and uncomfortable. Th only thing to do was to walk around and shop. Who wanted to shop anyway? Especially for stupid things that you had no real use for.At least Miroku and Sango had been amusing. Although Inuyasha almost felt sorry for the monk. He hadn't seen Miroku get slapped that much in a very long time. In fact Sango wasn't even talking to him by the time they got in the car to go home. Even Kagome was mad with him.
"Miroku in my time you just don't do that."
"Not that you should do it in our time either you ... you lecher!! (SLAP)
Shippou had had a good time though. Mrs. Higurashi had bought him a huge bag of jelly beans, and she had helped him select which flavors to get. Inuyasha almost smiled. He would have enjoyed the candy shop himself, if it hadn't been for the bombardment of sickeningly sweet smells.
The real reason he had put up with it was for Kagome, who had obviously loved dragging each of them off into one store after another. Mrs. Higurashi had smiled and bought them all new clothes and at lunch...ice cream. Inuyasha had accepted the jeans and black t-shirt Mrs. Higurashi had purchased him, but only because she looked so happy about buying them for him. But he just couldn't understand why anyone would want to wear something so damned uncomfortable, and had pretty much decided not to wear them, when he had cought Kagome's "look" and known he probably wouldn't have a choice.
Kagome had reached into her own pocket, and bought him a new hat to cover his ears. It was black, it matched his new shirt. It was pretty much exactly the same as his old hat, only allot cleaner. He hated having to hide his ears...It wasn't too comfy for him to stuff them under a hat...in fact sometimes it downright hurt. But he knew that he would, because Kagome would ask him not to forget to put it on, and she would look at him with those big brown eyes, and he would have no choice but to grin and bear it.
Ah...the things I do for lo.....her...the things i do for her, She is always sitting me and I am getting sick and tir.....
"Inuyasha?....are you up there? Come in and get dressed."
It was her
"I am dressed"
"In your new clothes please."
Inuyasha jumped down with the intention of yelling at her, but when he saw her he got more than a little tounge tied. She was dressed in a very short very pretty little dress. It was light pink, with a spattering of little shikon colored jewels at the top. Her hair was curly and down framing her face in ringlets. He sucked in a breath and let it out in a hiss.
"Okay...you dont have to shout."
Kagome smiled.
"Good this is gonna be a lot of fun, mom is really excited too, we havent been out as a family in years."
He almost asked her why not, but then it dawned on him...Because of you, because of the jewel. Yeah he would get dressed in those stupid clothes and act like he was happy about it, because she was HAPPY about it.

"Sango are you there...I... we need to talk you know before dinner."
Miroku had tapped on her door three times, and she still hadn't answered him.
"Sango, I'm really sorry, I just don't know what comes over me sometimes, and Souta gave me this...well nevermind...you are right, I behaved terribly...forgive me.?"
The door opened a crack and Miroku saw Sango peek out at him.
"PLEASE try to behave in a more polite manner at dinner tonight Miroku."
"I will I will....forgiven."
Sango opened the door the rest of the way and Miroku choked on his tounge. Sango had on a peach dress that came to her calves. The bodice showed off her curvy figure, he liked her figure in that dress even better than in her demon slayer outfit. She looked so womanly, so soft and touchable. He gulped, as he felt all his edges harden.
"Forgiven."
"Oh...okay then...I better go and see if Inuyasha is ready or not...okay then I'll see you downstairs..yes downstairs."
Miroku turned to leave he didn't trust himself to look at her for one more second without touching her.
"Miroku?"
He swallowed hard.
"...Yes Sango."
He felt her approach him, he didn't turn around. He felt her hand on his arm, and then she stood on her tiptoes and brushed her lips to his cheek.
"Thank you Miroku.?"
Miroku touched his cheek. It burned hot where her lips had touched him.
"For what are you thanking me." He said breathlessly still not turning around.
Sango smiled her cheeks flushed with embarassment and love.
"For looking at me like that, and for not acting on impulse."
It was Miroku's turn to blush.
