Tea For Your Troubles
Chapter 1: A Little Bit Of Magic
 
"Thank you so much for all the hospitality." Sango said kindly to the village headman's wife.
"Oh it's no trouble at all my dear." the old woman replied. "It's the least we could do for your kind monks help." The 'kind monk' in question was having entirely too much fun flirting with the village girls, who were all kneeling around him, giggling and blushing. The old woman continued "I just don't know what we would have done if he hadn't purified the village and placed sacred sutras around."
 
Sango was barely listening, her attention fully focused on the lecherous monk as he attempted to cop a feel on one of the young women. The old woman couldn't help but notice the daggers Sango was shooting at Miroku, who was apparently the only one oblivious to this.
 
The old woman hid a secretive smile, which would have raised a few eyebrows if anyone had been looking her way. So the demon slayer loves the lecherous monk. The old woman thought, eyeing the pair critically. Clearly this was not the first time the young monk had taken full advantage of all the spoils of victory.
 
Hmm, the old woman thought to herself, I wonder what would happen if the tables were turned so to speak. A coy smile that was seen by no one spread across the old woman's face as she thought about the matter in greater detail.
 
She abruptly got up to leave, a hurried explanation on her lips that no one really noticed. The demon slayer was far too occupied staring death glares Miroku's way, who in turn was staring at all the young women doting upon him. A healthy blush of colour was heating his face as he flirted profusely, a quick bottom grab every now and then.
 
Kagome was busy feeling sorry for Sango, a delicate frown creasing her normally unlined face. InuYasha was busy inhaling as much food as possible, as was Shippo. Therefore no one noticed the old woman leave; they especially didn't notice the coy contemplation on her wrinkly face.
 
Kagome said with forced cheerfulness "well I think it's time for all of us to hit the hay." Sango shot the young miko a thankful glance, which was gone as soon as it, came hearing Miroku's words from across the room.
 
"So which of you lovely ladies will be accompanying me tonight?" His tone was playful, but Sango couldn't help the jealous anger course through her veins.
 
She silently cursed herself, why should I care what the letchdoesin his spare time;it's not like he really loved meor anything. She frowned darkly at the peal of giggles coming from across the room at the monk's words. She cursed herself again, why can't I love someone who isn'ta total pervert?
 
She abruptly got up and headed to the woman's sleeping quarters, Kagome quickly following behind her. Once the two were settled Kagome said to her dejected friend, "he does love you you know." Sango sighed deeply, she didn't know if that made her feel better or worse. Kagome patted her friends shoulder in sympathy.
 
They were interrupted when they both heard a knock at the entrance. They called for them to enter, and were surprised to find it was the old woman carrying a tray with a steaming pot of tea upon it. They welcomed the woman, who sat down and began pouring tea for the three of them. "Something to calm the nerves and ease the mind." The old woman explained. The two young women eagerly accepted, not noticing when the old woman seemed to slip something into two of the glasses. They drank the tea in silence, each absorbed with their own thoughts.
 
Kagome felt her eyes grow heavy and yawned. The old woman took this as her que to leave. Kagome sleepily thanked the old woman before crawling down onto her futon. Hhhm that tea must be working she thought before drifting into a peaceful sleep.
 
The demon slayer watched her friend sleep for a moment before deciding she too should get some sleep. She stared up at the ceiling for a while, but sleep, it seemed wasn't going to come as easily for her as it did for the young miko.
 
Of course it wouldn't, the old woman had laced Kagome's tea with a bit of sleep aiding herbs, the demon slayers tea was laced with something of a completely different sort. The old woman chuckled to herself outside the woman's sleeping quarters, just as devious as ever, she thought to herself.
 
Her husband came up behind her noticing her laughing to herself, "what did you do this time?" He asked her, not without a trace of humour in his voice.
 
She winked at him and replied coyly, "Let's just say there are a few visitors who won't be getting much sleep for the next little while."
 
Her husband shook his head, a smile on his face; he knew his wife pretty well and knew she wouldn't do anyone any harm. He chucked her ruefully under the chin and gave her a chaste kiss. He held her arm as they walked towards their sleeping quarters, "why don't you work a little bit of your magic on me?" He asked with a twinkle in his eye.
 
She replied with the same twinkle in hers, "who's to say I haven't already?" They both laughed quietly as they walked away. It seemed it would be more than one couple who wouldn't be getting any sleep in the near future.
 
AN: I've been wanting to make a Miroku/Sango fic for a while now, so here it is. I've also got one Inu/Kag fic on the go, and have another one in development. And by in development I mean my mind just spewed out another idea so I might as well write it down. If by any chance you're reading this on fanfiction.com and have read any of my other 2 stories, those are kinda stalled for the moment. In kinda a creative rut with those ones, but be patient I will eventually finish them, and my other inu fanfic. Thanks to all the people who have read, and continue reading my stories, I greatly appreciated it. Please review if it isn't too much trouble :)
