Never Meant It

A/N: HI!! Um…yea, you're eyes aren't deceiving you. I'm updating fast. Heh

Well, good news and bad news. Which one first? Good? Alright. I stopped listening to DDR and FMA music.

Now the bad. . This chapter might have Kags OOC, seeing as I'm on a Fruits Basket rampage now. Ugh.

And I won't be updating for a long time after this chapter (or the next, if I'm nice), seeing as I'll be in China. But that's not a big deal. :P

:sobs: ONLY TWO PEOPLE REVIEWED THE LAST CHAPTER!! WAAAAHHH!! :sigh: So, Mori'quessir and siren66, you guys get all the thanks, and a bag of cookies. Or, if you don't like cookies…um…:looks around in pantry:…do you like oatmeal?

Chapter 10: Is She Worth It?

“Do it. Soon. The school year's almost over-okay, fine, not really, but still. I want it done with by…hm…” The owner of the voice paused to think. “Uh…how about next week?”

The other soul accompanying the speaker looked…worried, but didn't object. Sighing, he nodded.

`A bet's a bet…I guess.'

`But is she worth it?'

“Miroku? Roku? Where are you?” Kagome Higarashi wandered the school hallways well after school had ended, looking for her missing boyfriend. `Maybe I should put up missing posters.' She thought to herself, turning a corner.

As her eyes followed, she stopped short, seeing sad Miroku with Inuyasha.

“Miroku? What's wrong?”

Startled, both heads turned her way, one face guilty, one scared.

“…K-kagome! Uh…what are you doing here at this time? Heh…heh…” The hanyou spoke, hand on his neck, eyes not meeting hers.

“Um…I was looking for Miroku. I was supposed to walk to his home with him.” Kagome answered, aware of his uncomfortable ness. “Uh…what were you guys doing? I'm not intruding on anything, am I?”

“NO!” Inuyasha replied quickly. Too quickly. But luckily, Kagome didn't catch on, and smiled. “Okay. OH! Sango's waiting for you at the front, by the way Inuyasha. You better not make her wait too long.”

Inuyasha's eyes widened, whether out of fear or out of surprise, we may never know. With Inuyasha gone, Miroku seemed to get even more uncomfortable.

“Um…Kagome? Perhaps you shouldn't come over today…” He said, eyebrows furrowed, eyes everywhere but her.

“Uh……sure, Miroku…if you want…” She asked, confused as hell. `I wonder what's wrong.'

“Roku?” He looked at her. “Is anything wrong? Do you want to talk to me about it?”

Shaking his head, he replied “I'm fine” and started to walk off. `I most definitely can't talk to you about it. :sigh: Am I really doing the right thing?'

“INUYASHA! THERE YOU ARE! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!” Sango's eyes flared with a furious flame. Inuyasha gulped. Loudly.

“H-hey…I can explain! I was, uh, talking…to……Mir…o…ku……Sango?̶ 1; He stopped, actions futile.

Sango seemed to growl before pouncing. Inuyasha, fearing for his life, ran.

You know what happens next. Inuyasha gets tackled, tickled, then kissed.

…Wait. HUH?

A giggle sounded in the hallways. “It's okay. I'm not that mad, actually. It's just, you're so cute when you're scared. Your ears flatten to your head and you start making this weird face and-“ She got cut off by his lips on hers.

He growled, eye's glinting a playful glare before flipping them over so that he was on top, then started his attack.

“AAH!! I-inuy-yash-sha!! St-stop i-it!!” Sango's glare was cut off by another round of tickles.

Sango peeked in and saw the occupant pacing, deep in thought.

`Hm…maybe I can scare `em. It's the perfect situation…hehe…' Smiling what she thought was an evil smile, she rubbed her hands in an “evil genius” way and quietly stepped into the room.

`Careful…careful…aak!...phewf, that was close…almost…almost…almost…'

Sango winced, never knowing that the occupant could hit so hard. `Who knew there was such strength under all that…owwww…'

Kagome's eyes widened. `Oh…my…god…'

Miroku turned around, furious.

“WHAT THE HELL?! What'd you do that for?! Geez Sango!”

Sango didn't answer the question, butt on the floor, crying from laughing so hard.

:sigh: “SANGO!”

:breath:laugh:breath: “I-I'm…so…s-sorry…i-it…the chance was just…calling…t-to me…” :laugh:breath:laugh:

Her brother growled before turning to sit on his bed and go back to his dilemma, a sour yet sad look on his face. Sango, concerned (he's never been like that in his entire life…), asked what was wrong.

“Nothing. Will you leave, please? You're disturbing me and my thoughts.” Rolling her eyes, she complied, and entered her room to call and see if Kagome knew what was up.

Picking up her phone, she was about to dial in the 11 numbers that made up her friend's home phone number when it suddenly rang.

“Moshi moshi. Who is this?”

“SANGO, GIMME MIROKU ON THE PHONE. NOW!!” Was the distinct sound of a screeching banshee.

“Woah, woah…hold your horses. What's wrong, Kagome? Why you need Roku so badly? What'd he do this time?”

Sango's eye's widened with the sound of a growl. `Woah…'

“Alright, alright…just, try not to kill him yet, kay? I wanna know what the hell's bugging him before he dies. After that, you can kill him.”

“SANGO!!”

“ROKU!! IT'S FOR YOU!!!!”

“Ello? Inu?”

“ Nooo…wrong person. It's KAGOME.”

Miroku gulped. `Oh god, I'm dead. Wait, why am I dead?'

“Um…what's wrong Kags?”

“HOW DARE YOU CHEAT ON ME!!!!” Miroku could practically feel the wind of her words blow out from the phone.

…

“WEEEEEELLLLLL?!”

…

“Miroku? ARE YOU STILL THERE?! YOU HAD BETTER NOT'VE HUNG UP-“

“Yes, Kagome I'm still here. I just needed time to figure out why you thought that I was cheating on you. I still have nothing…” Miroku said, permanently deaf from his girlfriend.

“Wha…” Kagome stuttered, struck mute by his words. “…Wait, you mean…you're not cheating on me?”

“I don't believe so, unless there's a clone of me walking about the city flirting with another girl…”

“…Well…then what were you talking about with Inuyasha? And, why didn't you want me to come over today? HUH?! WHY?!”

“…That's it? THAT'S why you thought I was cheating on you? Kagome, I'm not.”

“Oh. Well, then what were you guys talking about? And, why can't I come over?”

“Um…I can't tell you.” Miroku said.

“So you ARE cheating on me!” Kagome accused.

“What?! NO! I just can't tell you why. It's a secret between me and Inu.”

“…”

“Kags? You believe me, right? Why would I cheat on you?!” Miroku's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion even though Kagome couldn't see. “Kagome? Why?”

But Kagome just shook her head (Miroku, obviously, didn't see) and answered, “Never mind Roku. Sorry bout that.” And asked to have Sango on the phone, glad that her hypothesis was wrong. Miroku, totally confused, muttered `girls' and did just that.

“Hello?”

“Hey Sango! What's up?”

“Um…nothing. You feeling okay now?”

“Yup! So, what's up with you and Inuyasha? He finally ask you out?”

Sango blushed. `Damn.'

“Well, actually, he asked me out long before…”

“WHAT?! And you never told me?! WHEN??” Kagome screeched, “upset” that her best friend never told her that fact.

“Well…it was a while ago. Actually, the same day you and…Houjou went out.”

“Huh? Me and Houjou never went-oh.” Kagome caught herself in time. “Really?”

“Yup. Just admit it, you and Houjou never went out and that it was really you and Roku, will you?”

“…Fiiiiine. But Roku's the one that made me lie!”

Sango laughed.

“Sooooooo….are guys going out now or what?!”

“….Maaayyybeeee…”

“HAHA!! I knew it!! Took you guys long enough.”

…

“So when's your guys' date?” Kagome's teasing voice came over the line.

“Oh do shut up.”

A/N: My lips, tongue, and teeth are frozen as of now. Popsicles are quite cold.

…Right. Anyways, whoo! Second longest post I would say; 5 pages. Well, probably four and a half with the A/Ns.
