I will protect you

Well... I've had a rough day, realized that my best friend tried to kill herself and she would have died if her uncle wasn't there. I was so mad at her, we live so far away from each other and I felt completly helpless. But the good news is is that she's doing well now and she knows that she has friends to help her pass the hard times with and we will always be there for her...She said she will never do it again and it was a very stupid thing to do, thank god she realized that. Oh well on with the story....

Three days later Miroku sat up in his bed still in the temple, Sango and Shippo entertaining him, while Inuyasha went to fetch Kagome.

“Are you sure you don’t want anything else to eat?” Sango asked looking at his empty bowl.

“Yes, I’m fine Sango thank you.”

“Did you know, Inuyasha was really worried about you, he went to the western lands to find this flower, so you can live” Miroku’s eyes widened.

“But isn’t that Sesshoumaru’s land?” He asked surprised.

“Yeah I suppose it is, he didn’t say he had any trouble finding it so I guess he didn’t see Sesshoumaru” Sango said shrugging it off. “I’m glad you are feeling better,” she took his hand and he looked into her eyes. “You really scared me,” Miroku smiled.

“I’m sorry…I’ll be more careful next time I bathe” Miroku squeezed her hand and smiled at her.

“You felt something in the hot spring?”

“Yes, it was a quick sharp pain in my neck, but it went away as fast as it came, I just didn’t see it as a problem”

“Hey I think I hear someone coming” Shippo jumped off of Sango’s shoulder and ran out the door he came back a second later. “Hey Kagome and Inuyasha are back!” Both Inuyasha and Kagome walked into the room and Kagome rushed to Miroku’s side.

“Miroku are you alright Inuyasha told me what happened, I’m sorry I couldn’t be here to help you” Kagome said worried while feeling his head which was now back to normal.

“I’m fine Kagome, thanks to Inuyasha… Thank you Inuyasha” he said as he gave Inuyasha a warm smile. Inuyasha stared at him for a moment and then shook his face to his normal couldn’t care look.

“Eh, it was nothing” Inuyasha looked away as the girls crowed Miroku and continued to check him and baby him which the monk quite enjoyed. ‘What am I gonna do?’ the hanyou thought to himself. ‘I don’t think Sesshoumaru would do that… He wouldn’t help Naraku bring an evil child into this world… Even if he takes Miroku, which he won’t… Miroku is a male, he couldn’t carry a child…” Inuyasha looked at Miroku from the corner of his eye. ‘I’ll protect you Miroku… I just hope Sesshoumaru doesn’t show his face around here, I’ll kill him’ Inuyasha was fuming on the inside and it was starting to show on his face. Kagome looked at Inuyasha and saw that he was baring his fangs. Both Sango and Miroku stopped to see what Kagome was looking at.

“Inuyasha?” the hanyou was still baring his fangs and growling while standing there looking out the window. “Inuyasha?” she said again a little louder. “What’s wrong?” Inuyasha snapped out of his thinking and looked at her.

“oh… uh what?”

“Are you okay? You looked like you were angry at something” Inuyasha looked at his friends who were staring at him with worry in their eyes.

“uh no… no it’s nothing… I was just thinking too much that’s all…” He turned around and walked outside. Miroku watched him leave a little confused and worried at the hanyou’s action. That night was the last night they were planning to stay at the temple, Inuyasha had insisted that Miroku was fine and was able to travel, the monk agreed but the girls were very hesitant and bugged them about it for a while before finally giving up. Inuyasha sat next to Miroku leaning against a wall watching the monk’s even breaths. ‘He’s cute…’ he thought to himself scooting a little closer to the monk so he can look into his face. Inuyasha smiled and looked over the covered body that lay before him, resisting every temptation to touch. The young man shifted a little and smacked his lips together obviously in deep sleep. His moist lips parted slightly. Inuyasha stared at his lips with amazement, he involuntarily licked his own lips while watching the monks mouth. He leaned forward balancing himself on his hands on both sides of the monk’s head. He bent down still keeping his eyes open watching Miroku’s closed ones. ‘Don’t wake up don’t wake up don’t wake up’ he mentally begged Miroku then placed a small kiss on his lips. The monk’s eyes shot open and stared at the blurry yellow ones in front of him. Inuyasha’s eyes widened still having his lips on Miroku’s. They stayed like that shocked for what seemed like eternity, until finally Inuyasha bolted backwards and scooted to the wall. Miroku stared at the ceiling breathing heavily. “I… I… I’m sorry” The monk slowly sat up and looked at him.

“Why?” Miroku asked sitting back and leaning on his hands then looked back down at the floor.

“I… thought you wouldn’t wake up… I’m sorry… It will never happen again… I like you, please don’t be mad at me” He said not exactly knowing how to explain his situation. He turned his head not wanting to look at Miroku. ‘He hates me now, how could I have been so stupid, the only reason he didn’t wake up last time was because he was sick’

“I didn’t mean that” Miroku was inches from his face smiling. Inuyasha let out a small gasp. He was so deep in thought that he didn’t see the monk crawl to him. “I mean, why are you sorry?” Inuyasha’s eyes widened as he looked into Miroku’s. He remembered Sesshoumaru’s words

‘Those eyes…You will never see those eyes again…’ Miroku leaned forward and kissed Inuyasha deeply. Both their eyes closed and enjoyed the kiss. Inuyasha snaked his hand around the back of Miroku’s neck and made the kiss deeper running his tongue on the monk’s bottom lip asking for entrance which the young man gladly gave him. He tasted every bit of Miroku’s mouth. The monk was intoxicating. ‘oh please don’t let this be another dream’ he thought to himself as he pushed Miroku on to his back still kissing him. He broke the kiss to nibble on the panting monk’s throat while the human stroked his back. Inuyasha’s hand found the tie that held the robes in place and pulled it.

“No…” Inuyasha was kissing his chest when he heard the protest.

“What?” he asked looking up.

“I… I’m new… I”

“You’re a virgin?” Miroku nodded. “That’s okay if you haven’t slept with another guy… but haven’t you slept with a girl?” the monk shook his head embarrassed. Inuyasha smiled. “It’s okay Miroku I won’t do anything you don’t want to”

“Ok…” Inuyasha opened his robes kissing every little bit of exposed flesh until the monk was only in his green pants. Inuyasha started pulling them off while the monk kept perfectly still not looking at the hanyou in embarrassment. Inuyasha took his length into his mouth and started to suck. Miroku gasped squeezing his eyes shut and balled his hands into fists. Inuyasha kept trying to spread his legs to lick his balls, but Miroku was reluctant. “Wait… no… Inuyasha all I wanted was to kiss, this… this is embarrassing” he said sitting up and trying to cover himself by closing his robes. “I’m sorry… I’m just not ready” Inuyasha was greatly surprised by the monk’s shyness.

“It’s okay Miroku, I can wait” Inuyasha replied still looking at Miroku as he pulled his pants up and tied his robes with shaky hands. ‘How can he be ashamed with such a beautiful body’ he thought. He watched as Miroku pulled the covers to him and slept on his side. Soon the monk felt the covers move and a body pressed up against his back. “Is it ok if I sleep with you like this then?” the hanyou whispered in his ear and felt a hand sneak it’s way around his waist to gently caress his tummy.

“Yes” the young man whispered back. He felt Inuyasha’s erection pressing against his butt and hoped that it would go down soon as the night passed. “Good night Inuyasha” Inuyasha kissed the back of his neck as a response. Pretty soon they both fell asleep in each other’s arms.


Inuyasha was woken up by an awfully annoying light hitting his face. He stirred and tried to bloke the irritating light by waving his arms until one of his arms hit something beside him. Miroku woke with a jump as he felt something strong his him on his side. “Wah! What the… oh” Miroku spotted Inuyasha looking at him.

“Oh I’m sorry did I hurt you?”

“Nah… it takes a lot more to hurt me” He said as they both sat up. Miroku got up stretched and started heading towards the door. “Well, I’m famished; let’s eat before we start moving again”

“Uh, Miroku…”

“Humm?”

“What do we tell the girls?”

“What do we tell the girls about what?”

“Do… Are… We… together?” Inuyasha asked hesitantly.

“Do you want to be together, even if I do not wish to have sex… now that is?”

“Yeah, I mean, it’s not all about sex right? I mean I like you… a lot…and-“

“I do too”

“Should we tell the girls that we are seeing each other?”

“I’m afraid of their reaction Inuyasha, I don’t want them to think differently of –“ they were interrupted when Sango walked in.

“Miroku! You can walk!” She said as if he has never walked before.

“Yes Sango I have legs that function properly” he said with a smile.

“How do you feel? Are you dizzy or anything? Are you in any pain? Can I get you something? Has your neck healed completely? Has Inuyasha been bothering you at all? Are you feeling weak in the legs? Are you sure you don’t have a fever? How many fingers am I holding up? Do you see blurs? Do you see like you normally see? The fever hasn’t changed your vision or anything? Are you hungry?”

“Fine, no, no, no, yes, no, no, yes, three, no, yes, no, and famished” he said with a smile. Inuyasha stood up.

“Good come on breakfast is ready” They ate and talked the rest of the morning and headed off at noon. The entire time Inuyasha remained close to the monk and glaring at the trees as if they would somehow come alive and take his precious monk away from him. The reality of the situation is that there was someone out there that would take his precious monk.

“Monk!” A female voice was heard in the sky, all eyes darted up to see the Wind Sorceress Kagura on her large feather. “You are still alive? Why won’t you die?!”

“You! You were the one who poisoned me?!” Miroku asked outraged. Kagura jumped off of her feather.

“I’ll finish you off right now then”

“Not while I’m around! WIND SCAR!” Inuyasha hit his transformed sword on the ground directing it at Kagura who escaped it by a hair.

“Fool! Do you know how much danger you are putting yourself into if you let that monk live! Not to mention the pain that he will endure”

“I won’t let it happen Kagura?!” the hanyou spat back.

“Ha, you think just because you say something won’t happen doesn’t mean it won’t.”

“Inuyasha what is she talking about?” Miroku asked.

“You haven’t told him yet? About your conversation with Sesshoumaru about Naraku? Listen monk all you need to know is that if you die now, you will save yourself a lot of pain and your friends’ will remain safe.” Kagura said.

“Inuyasha! What is she talking about?” Miroku was starting to get angry.

“Look Kagura get out of my face before I slice yours”

“Fine, but be warned Naraku will get what he wants.” She said before she jumped on her feather and disappeared into the air leaving the hanyou in an awkward state. He sheathed the Tensusaiga and looked back at his friends who were staring at him.
