Just Like Old Times


Miroku wrapped his arm around Sango, and started to comfort her and tell her to "...dry your tears there is no reason to cry."

"Yes there is, you were going to leave me..." she was interrupted

"No, never."

"Just like all the others you were going to leave me..." She continued on as if she did not her him, although they both know that she had. She had to explain there was a misinterpretation. And she learned from past experiences to correct errors as soon as possible. "...I would be left all alone I would have no one. Don't tell me 'no' you are one day going to leave me. If not now, then there is-"

"Let's not talk about this now." Miroku pleaded with her he knew exactly what she was talking about, and he just didn't feel like talking about it.

"I need to talk about this now, Miroku. We just can't keep avoiding this. There is a chance of dying in battle, or of you dying from the Kazaana in your hand." He winced he didn't ever want to envision dying before he go to get to know Sango on a more intimate level.

"I know that, don't you think I know that?" Anger hinted in his voice but it was more along the lines of annoyance. He didn't like being pushed into a conversation. He was not ready for this. He paused a moment to think of what to say, he hesitantly started with, "I have never told you this partly because of that fact; I have never made advances to a long lasting relationship with you, no matter how much I wanted it." He let the words sink in and he looked into her eyes to see her reaction, but alas, he was unable to, it was too dark to see. They had been talking a long time and it just occurred to him now how late it was. "I kept you at a distance, if you haven't figured it out yet I groped you in order to do that. I didn't and still don't want to hurt you, I just want you, but I'll wait till the end of time just so I could have you. I will wait Sango, I will continue to wait, and not if but when this Kazaana is removed from my hand, and when Naraku is dead. I will have you you'll see. Then there will be nothing to get in between us. I'll keep my distance from you for now if that's what you want."

Sango was speechless, she wanted very much to run into his arms and say I want you now and not later, but her mouth was not cooperating. She opened it and tried to speak but no words came out. And her chance to tell Miroku how she felt was gone. He was standing up and offering to help her up. She took him up on his offer and the walked together to go and find Kagome, Inu Yasha and Shippo.

They found them a little ways away. They were all camped out and Kagome and Shippo were already asleep in the sleeping bag. Inu Yasha watched the two come to camp together the thought at first that Miroku was getting lucky but when he saw them he smelt no scents reminiscent of sex. Miroku had done what he told Inu Yasha he would do, which is that they would just talked.

Miroku found a spot against a tree got comfortable and silently dosed of to sleep. Sango was not far from Kagome and she to fell asleep quickly. Inu Yasha just closed is eyes his senses alert to the sounds of the forest surrounding them.

In the middle of the night Sango woke up. Everyone was already sleeping. She saw Miroku propped up against a tree. She silently made her way over to the spot where Miroku slept. He was sitting cross-legged; she went and sat in his lap. She sat long ways in his lap and laid her head on his shoulder. At this newfound weight Miroku's eyes fluttered open to his surprise he saw a lovely lady sitting in his lap. He looked into her eyes and she smiled the most innocent of smiles and wrapped her arms around his neck. She pulled him slightly down to her level and gave him a passionate kiss. Their tongues battled for dominance and they both explored the depths of each other's mouths. Their kiss broke apart much to the dismay of both participants involved. Sango laid her head back on his shoulder and closed her eyes. Miroku wrapped an arm around her waist to keep her close he finally has her he won't let her go not now. Being so close to Sango only reminded his of the times they would talk together and how close they got, before he went and mucked things up. Even if it wasn't his fault he has messed up so many times he can't even keep track now. He pulled her closer to his body not wanting to let go. And they both drifted off in a blissful sleep.
