Chapter III Love, love and finding it

"Miroku, is there really an evil spirit here?" she asked as she looked at all the food that was not sparingly placed in front of them.

Heading for this inn had been Miroku's best idea, knowing that the mild inn keeper would not give up the chance of getting his inn de-demoned by a monk. He kept his face even as he looked across the low table to Sango.

"Of course Sango, do you doubt my abilities?" he asked.

"And it just so happens that it started raining as well." she turned her attention to her food, eating at a slow pace, while watching Shippou and Miroku inhale most of the food that was on the table. 'Men.' She sat their picking at her food, she had the stomach cramps that usually joined her menstruation.

"I'm going to bed." They all remained friends forever. she said as she moved away from the table to the bedroom the inn keeper had given her. Unfortunately there had been only one room left at the inn, so everyone had to share. Thankfully there were two futons or she would have thrown the monk out.

As she reached the room a large bolt of lightning crashed against the sky, illuminating it. She hoped that Kagome didn't meet this bad weather. But deep inside, she had always been afraid of lightning, she supposed it must have come from a bad experience in her childhood. She changed into a set of pink kawii bunny pajamas that Kagome had given her and set herself under the covers, still wide awake. She winced when another bolt of lighting crashed in the night, but she didn't want to share her weakness.

Sango was debating whether or not to just give up on sleeping and do something else. Her thoughts stilled when Miroku and Kilala entered the room. She heard Miroku shift his robes around as he prepared to go to sleep. The exterminator kept her eyes closed, hopefully passing off as she was sleeping.


"Not asleep yet?" the words almost startled her as she sat up to look at the monk. The blanket she was under pooled at her lap exposing her upper body just clothed by the pink kawii bunny tank top. Miroku's eyes went wide at the thin layer of cloth clothing her body that was most very feminine.

"No." she nearly jumped this time when she heard the thunder boom along with another clash of lightning. Miroku smiled at finding out that Sango was afraid of something so simple.

"I didn't know you could be afraid of anything." he said calmly, sitting on the end of her futon, keeping his hands in his lap. "Especially of thunder and lightning." he added.

"I'm not," she said. She nearly yelped when she felt the hand that was on her calf. She looked at him sheepishly, knowing that he now knew. But he didn't move his arm off. During this time Shippou got the hint and picked up his pillow and Kilala, moving out into the hallway, allowing the two more privacy.

"Now will you tell me how you really feel about me?" he asked quietly, starting to rub her calf through the material of the blanket. He looked intently at her face. He might have been pushing her, but he had his own feelings too.

"Well Miroku, do you still promise not to go after other women?" He nodded as he did before, so she gathered all of her courage and planned quickly how she could tell him everything in one sentence. "I like you Miroku, more than anyone else, but everyone I've cared for has died." she said, averting her eyes from his face.

He decided to move closer to her, now sitting between her and the wall, putting his arm around her shoulders, bringing her closer to him. Miroku smiled as he felt her relax under his touch. Something she had never done before.

"I'm not going anywhere Sango." he whispered, kissing her temple.

How could she know that? 'Getting attached means getting hurt', she had said that nearly two weeks ago and she was ready to say it again. She tried to shift away from him, but his arm tightened around her, keeping her in place.

A few tears built up in her eyes and the thunder continued to roll. She cringed. "Stay with me tonight." she said quietly, looking up at him.

"Of course." he said as he got up to slide beneath the blanket. She turned on her side to face him.

"What's going to happen from here?" she asked. Sango didn't plan on finding anyone that would actually care for her before she killed Naraku, one way or another.

He didn't know either. Of course they would become more intimate as the days moved on, but what would happen a year from now? He didn't want to think that their relationship would end anytime soon. "We'll just get closer Sango." he said, slipping his arm under her waist to pull her closer to him.

She quickly found out that the only comfortable position would be if she kept her head on his chest. It didn't seem that the monk minded as he tried to pull her closer. "I'd like that." she mumbled before she fell asleep. Unconsciously she knew that changes would show up if she let her feelings guide her with Miroku, but unlike before, she was certain that he would steady her if she had any doubts.


Inuyasha was spooned against Kagome's back as he began to think about how he was going to tell her what had happened. He started to spool her hair around his fingers, liking the texture of it.

"Something's been bothering you all day. You didn't argue with me once." she stated.

The hanyou sighed, knowing he should tell her now. "Kagome…you're pregnant."

The girl sat up immediately, as if a bee had stung her. Inuyasha thought that he saw her with a pained expression on her face and he smelled the salt from her flowing tears. 'She doesn't want our pup.' he thought sadly. He knew their relationship was too good to be true.

"Don't you want it…you're crying." he said, also sitting up and putting his arms around her.

"How could you think I wouldn't want our child you baka! I'm crying because I'm happy." she said, leaning her head against his shoulder smiling. She was pregnant, at nearly 18, but that didn't bother her. She knew that the child would come from a loving family.

"So you do want it?" he asked tenderly.

"Of course! This child came from our bond…how could you doubt our love?" she asked, feeling a little hurt. She placed her hand over her stomach, and it was quickly covered by Inuyasha's larger hand. They looked into each other's eyes for a few minutes in silence.

"I'm happy." he finally said, knowing this would become a big change in their relationship. He slowly pulled Kagome back into their sleeping bag, not wanting to stay up much longer if he had to be sleeping inside for once. He held Kagome in his arms as he heard her breathing deepen, signaling that she was asleep. He allowed himself to doze, still keeping an ear open to any possible danger. He knew that demons would come after his pregnant mate, thinking that they could get to him through her. Hopefully he didn't drag her into any unknown danger.



Inuyasha woke with a start, the strong scent of a demon close by. He roughly grabbed Kagome by the shoulders, shaking her to wake up. She slowly opened her eyes and frowned.

"Wake up!" he yelled, and Kagome punched him in the chest. `Who does he think he is waking me up like that?'

Then she realized she sensed two jewel shards heading their way, at a very rapid pace. Only one name came to mind and the girl got up and out of the tent, having slept in her school uniform since she didn't have a clean set of clothes. Inuyasha was right behind her, having his hand on his sword already.

The world wind halted a meter in front of them, Kouga emerged none too happy.

"Kagome! I have finally come to take you home with me." he took her into a rough embrace, which seemed more like a new way of dieting by the way he seemed to be choking her.

"Get off her!" the hanyou growled, not liking another male all over his mate. He moved behind her and gently pulled her away, putting his arms around her waist to keep her close to him. Inuyasha saw a rather unpleasant look cross Kouga's face.

"What are you doing mutt, get away from my women. She's coming with me." he nearly yelled, grabbing Kagome's arm, trying to get her out on the hanyou's grip.

"STOP!" yelled Kagome. She had enough of their bickering, even if she was what they were fighting over. They could at least try to think straight. Two angry demons were never the easiest to deal with. "Kouga." she said sweetly, attracting his attention. She gave Inuyasha her `shut up' glare to keep him quiet.

"I never said I was going with you!" she yelled in his face. Inuyasha was surprised, and Kouga didn't seem to notice.

"Of course you are Kagome. You'd think I'd leave you here with him, this little mutt who couldn't keep a flower alive?" He made a grab for her arm, but Inuyasha pulled her away again, moving in front of her.

"Didn't you hear her? She doesn't want to go with you!" he growled loudly, warning Kouga.

Kouga quickly slammed his foot into Inuyasha before jumping over and grabbing Kagome, making a run for it. He had her over her shoulder, jumping over the tree tops, making his way back to his clan. Inuyasha was hot on his tail, following the disgusting scent of his rival.

Unfortunately Kouga misjudged the distance from the ground to the side of the cliff and had to make an effort to fling both of their bodies on a ledge. Kagome roughly rolled against the wall, knocking her head on it. She sat up holding her head and crying, looking over her bruised body and feeling her throbbing head.

He was at her side in an instant, holding her hand. "Are you alright?" he asked.

She was furious by now. "You think I'm alright? You kidnapped me from Inuyasha and managed to slam me into a rock wall! I'm bruised all over, my head hurts, and oh kami no..." Kagome put her hand over her stomach, hoping the pup inside didn't dislodge.

"I'm sorry! Please forgive me Kagome, I didn't mean to hurt you…"

"I'll be fine." she gritted out through her teeth. She couldn't believe that Kouga would be so uncaring, to have her thrown around like this.

During their conversation, if you could call it that, Inuyasha had spotted them and was now crouched opposite Kouga, ready to attack him. "You bastard!" he yelled, swinging his sword out, ready to battle Kouga if he asked for it. "You took my mate and now you'll pay!" and with that he swung the sword at him, but Kouga, having jewel shards, easily dodged them.

"Mate? No matter, she's still my women!" he yelled swinging his legs at the hanyou, hitting, and throwing him into the ground with a slam. Kouga made his way over, ready to punch the Inuyasha in the face.

During their fight Kagome was sitting there crying, her body ached. She quietly slid off her skirt and panties, seeing that her underwear was blood stained, meaning one thing. The girl started to sob after putting her clothes back on. She knew, and it hurt.

"Can't you smell she's pregnant too? Stay away from her you asshole!" he yelled, ready to blow Kouga away with his Kaze no Kizo attack.


"She isn't pregnant you dimwit!" he spat back, carefully sniffing the air; he just smelled Kagome's blood.

Inuyasha sniffed the air as well, noting that Kagome no longer gave off the scent of a pregnant female, but he did smell blood, the kind of blood that came when she was ovulating. "You fucking bastard!" he yelled, he was beyond pissed now; he couldn't believe Kouga could have managed to do suck a terrible thing. He was ready to kill him, not just fight him off.

Kouga ran to the crying girl, forgetting about Inuyasha. He crouched down and frowned when he felt Kagome tense and move away from him. "Stay away." she whispered, her voice cracking.

Inuyasha slammed his katana in Kouga and through him into the rock walls before killing him, then ripped his head off. Blood splattered every. He took out the two shards before gently holding Kagome in his arms, putting her head on his shoulder, his heart pounding with sorrow as he felt her tear stain his haroi.

"Shhh, Kagome, it's going to be alright." he whispered, rocking the miko in his arms, trying his hardest to sooth her. All of his instincts, human and demon, wanted his mate to calm down.

Her sobs quieted until they stopped altogether. She looked up at him with red, puffy eyes. She had never cried so hard in her life. "I lost the baby, " she said, more tears threatening to spill. She couldn't believe that this could have happened.

"I know Kagome, but it's not your fault. It's Kouga's. Don't try to blame yourself, " he said, kissing her temple. It hurt him too, knowing that their first pup was gone, but he needed to act strong so he could keep Kagome calm. `I'll kill him for this.'

"It hurts." She whispered, trying to bury her face in his haroi. She wanted to have that child, and now it was gone.

"It does, it hurts me too. But we can't change anything now, we can only try again." He stopped his rocking, no longer caring that he had to find jewel shards. They had lost something precious; the jewels could wait for a while.

"Do you want to go and find Sango, Miroku, and Locke?" he asked quietly, knowing that having her friends around her would help ease the pain. She nodded and kissed his cheek, silently thanking him for his kindness.


Locke and Shippou were talking about Sango and Miroku when they saw them. A horde of demons was attacking a caravan.

"Come on, Shippou." Locke yelled, "We have to help them."

There were about fifty demons. Locke ran into the most populated area, slicing away with his Katana. He went into a complete killing frenzy. Shippou stayed a distance and used his foxfire. The encounter took about 5 minutes to end.

Locke and Shippou searched the caravan for survivors and only found one out of twenty people. She was underneath parts and pieces of a destroyed wagon. She was very beautiful. She was about five feet tall, had blonde shoulder length hair, and had a very nice body. Locke managed to get her to wake up and open her eyes. Her first thought of him was that he was an angel.

"Who," she said very sacredly, "Who are you?"

"I am Locke and this is Shippou. Who are you."

"My name is Raquet. What happened to the others?'

"They did not survive the attack. I am sorry. I will bury them for you and I will have Miroku do services for them. Would you like to come with me? It is your choice. My friends and me will help protect you."

"Yes. I will go with you. But not till my friends are buried."

"Ok. Now please rest." That is when Raquet fell back asleep.

"Come on Shippou. We have a lot of work to do."

It took about 3 hours to bury all the people. Locke woke up Shippou, picked up Raquet and head out where Miroku and Sango where.

"Come on Shippou. It is going to be a long walk."

"My caravan was passing through her when the demons attacked." Raquet said, " I didn't see much of the fight. My uncle killed on with a spear, but it dropped into my wagon and burying me under it. That's all I remember." She fell back asleep after telling that.



"Miroku, I'm going to go to the lake." She told him, feeling all hot and sticky from the demon they had defeated about and hour ago. The thing was snake-like, and tried to attack them knowing they knew where the rest of the Shikon jewel was.

Sango has easily managed to slice the thing in halves with her giant boomerang, and the demon died. One tiny piece of the jewel fell to the ground, and the monk had picked it up, putting it in the pouch he had around his neck. At least the rumor he picked up was true.

"I'll come too." He stated with a sly grin on his face.

Sango blushed, she didn't mind his request, but she didn't think she was ready to go that far with him, knowing things would escalate. She sighed in defeat against her inner desires and allowed the monk to follow after telling Kilala to stay inside their room at the inn.

"Turn around." She said once they reached the edge of the lake. She didn't like the fact that there was no hot water available to bathe in, but she needed to get clean so the lake would do for now.

Miroku complied, turning his back as he heard Sango drop her clothes and enter the water. The sun was still up high in the sky, making it about 3, so the water was relatively warm.

He then quickly got out of his robes and made his way waist deep in the water, noticing that Sango was crouching on the bottom of the lake. She didn't want to expose any of her body to him. Miroku smiled.

"You can stand up Sango." He said teasingly. The girl slowly stood, crossing her arms over her chest. The monk was surprised that she didn't stay under the water.

He went behind her and put his hands on her shoulders, massaging them for her. "Drop your arms." he whispered.

The girl blushed at his request, not knowing if she should actually follow. Her mind was telling her to save herself for another day while her heart was screaming at her to give herself to the monk. She decided to go with her heart. She dropped her arms.

His smile grew wider as he turned her around, planting a kiss on her soft lips. He then looked down at her exposed chest. "You're beautiful." He whispered, noticing her blush deepen.

Miroku decided to get bolder, kissing down her neck, leaving a wet trail as he made his way down to its base. He smiled against her skin as he heard her breathing shorten and felt her skin become hot.

The monk continued trailing kisses down her chest until her met her breasts. So he wouldn't have to bend down, he picked up Sango and put her legs on either side of him, placing his hands on her rear to keep her chest at his eye level.

He took one of the soft nipples in his mouth, running his tongue over it, marveling at how quickly it got hard. She let out a moan.

Miroku took his mouth off her left nipple to lick the valley between her breasts, causing Sango to feel a shiver run up her spine before he took her left nipple in his mouth. She started to breathe harder from all the attention she was receiving from the monk. She put her hands on his shoulders to steady herself as he began to rub her bottom. She let out a louder moan, causing Miroku to get harder from beneath the water.

"Do you like this Sango? " he asked, taking his mouth off her nipple and sliding her body down so her feet touched the sand underneath. She felt something hard pressed against her stomach.

"I do." She confirmed, rising on her toes so she could kiss him. He started to rub his arousal against her body.

"Please Sango, I've wanted this for so long." He whispered, stroking her hair. She nodded into his chest and he lifted her up in the water, making her hover over his erection. He touched her opening, slipping a finger inside to make sure she was wet enough not to hurt her. He smiled noting she was ready.

Her eyes closed when she felt that finger slip inside of her, than let out a moan when she felt the tip of Miroku's manhood press against her. "In the water?" she asked, draping her arms across his shoulders.

"Yes." He said, starting to push her down onto his length that seemed to be never ending until he felt a barrier. He kissed her cheek. "This might hurt Sango." She nodded, already knowing. In one quick thrust he buried himself inside Sango, letting out a quiet moan because of the tightness of her opening, which had to stretch to let him in.

Sango cringed slightly; it hurt having to fit a man so large inside her. `At least he has the right to brag about women.' She thought. She gave her hips an experimental buck before Miroku set the pace, slowly lifting Sango off of his hard member before sliding her back down hard.

"Miroku." She moaned, feeling him move faster inside of her while she tried to meet his thrusts. They set the pace together.

"Sango." He grunted, taking one of her nipples inside his mouth, sucking on it while he quickened his pace to pound into her. He wanted to release so badly, but didn't want to hurt Sango.

He was on the verge of his orgasm when he heard Sango whisper "please", with that he brought one of his hands under water to stroke the small nub that controlled her pleasure. Sango let out a long moan, feeling herself tighten her vaginal muscles around Miroku. She was almost there, almost there.

Miroku wanted to see her face as she experienced her orgasm, so he let go of her breast to press his lips against hers harshly, lost in their sea of pleasure. He pumped into her one last time, managing to get inside her until the hilt when he let himself explode, feeling Sango let go with him. He didn't notice how hard the both of them were breathing until Sango slumped against him, worn out.

She slowly looked up into his eyes, smiling. She had never felt so complete before. Miroku lifted her off of him, both relishing the cool water against their skin. "I love you Miroku." She whispered against his lips. He smiled.

"I love you too Sango. Let's get washed and head back."

Sango moved to the edge of the lake to look through her bag, finding the soap that Kagome had given her and brought it up to Miroku. She lathered her hands before she made Miroku hold the bar while she washed his chest sensually, gently tweaking at his nipples.

"Did you like the other women you went after?" she asked, almost out of no where.

"Of course not Sango, I never liked any of them. I was hoping to make you jealous so you would come to me…I guess that didn't work." He smiled down to her.

"Really?"

"Really."
