Happy Birthday

"Zzzz..." Mumbles the sleeping Sango. She was dreaming of her birthday party
that was yet to come. Shs sos so overexcited that she had no idea there was
a man quietly sneaking in her window. She murmured an incoherent squeak as
she snoozed on. The intruder kneeled beside her on the bed, careful not to
jostle her awake.

"So beautiful ... and harmless while sleeping, aren't you?" (You all know
who it is? ^_~) He reached out and stroked her silky soft black hair. His
fingertips ran down her cheek and she squirmed to his touch. "Sh, sh, sh, sleep
my Sango-chan..." He mumbled as he reached into the bag he had with him and
extracted a blindfold. He carefully, ever so carefully, lifted her deadweight
head and slipped some of the blindfold under her and placed her head back on
her pillow.

He tied the blindfold in a strong knot and extracted handcuffs from his bag
next. There were other objects in the bag, but you'll see what they are
later...

He tightened the cuffs on her wrists and stroked her cheek with the intention
of waking her. When she didn't wake he tapped his fingers on her forehead,
"Deep sleeper..." He grabbed her shoulder and heaved her sleepy body up, so
she was sitting by him, she still didn't wake. "Damn, wake up!" He shook her
softly but she continued sleeping. "Gods... Sango-chan, wake the hell up...!"

He gave up and lifted her over his shoulder. He carried her outside to his
car and set her in the front seat. He was shocked when the chilly night breeze
still left her sleeping. He pulled the seatbelt and purposely brushed his
knuckles across her breast and buckled the belt with a click.

********

He started the car and surprisingly Sango stirred. "Awake?" She barely
mumbled and rolled away from him. "Er..."

He started driving, though the roads were empty he drove carefully, there was
precious cargo onboard. He arrived at a dock about half-an-hour later and
got out of the car. He tossed his bag-o'-goodies onto a small boat and went to
the car to retrieve Sango.

With her in the boat he pushed the boat off into the water and began rowing.

He was exhausted and decided to turn on the motor. When the loud motor
roared it awoke the sleeping beauty and a piercing scream sounded across the lake.

"Calm down!" Yelled the man in the boat with her. Just to see her reaction
he laughed sinisterly and said, "The problem isn't comitting the murder, it's
ing ing rid of the body." She nearly jumped out of the boat before he grabbed
her arm. "Calm down... I'm not going to hurt you."

She shook with fear and because it was cold, "Who-.. who are you? What do
you want from me? Please, please don't hurt me.." She sounded distressed and
near ready to cry.

"Don't worry..." he voice was reassuring, and.. somehow.. familiar.

"Why am I here? What do you want? Are you going to rape me? Please, just
don't kill me!" She was frantic and her voice came out cracked, hoarse and
saturated in a dreary sleep.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you.. trust me." He reached out and touched her
cheek. His hands were warm.

"Who..?" She couldn't finish the question, she began shivering
uncontrollably.

"You'll find out soon enough, my love. Why are you shivering?" He sounded
concerned. "Don't be scared, I promise I won't hurt you."

"I'm N-NOT sc-scared. I-it's-s free-eez-zing." She stuttered out.
He moved to comfort her but she flinched away, so he sighed, "We're almost
there."

"Almost where?"

"You'll find out soon enough..."

******

She could tell they were there, the boat stopped rocking and she heard the
scratch of gravel and pebbles on the bottom of the boat--they were on shore
now. He reached out and took her hand, she pulled away and got out of the boat
herself. She nearly tripped over a rock and then allowed to to guide her
along.

He was so warm ... so inviting... Where was he taking her? She was anxious,
yet scared.

"Watch your step," he held her shoulders tighter, making sure she wouldn't
fall.

They walked up three stairs and she heard a door open, the soft padding under
her feet told her she was on carpet. She smelled spaghetti.

"Stay here." He ordered, and she hear him walk away.

She attempted to lift the blindfold off, but it was too much of a struggle
and she heard him coming back.

He returned and guided her over to sit on a couch.

She felt a glass touch her lips and his soothing voice ordered, "Drink."

She smelled wine, so she willingly sipped it. She figured it was going to be
a surprise birthday party, but she wasn't sure where everyone else was yet...

She drank a little more and then felt the presence in front of her lips
shift. Something warmer, softer ... but still smelled of winhe fhe felt his lips
brush hers and she jerked backwards. "'EY!"

"Sorry." He sounded sincere, not just a "Sorry, though I'm going to try it
again."

She read him wrong.

He tried kissing her again. He received the same reaction and sighed.

Next time, she thought to herself, I'll bite 'im! She was scowling and she
heard him chuckle. I know that laugh. "MIROKU!" She kicked towards where he
was and felt her foot hit his shin.

"OW! Jeez, what was that for?!"

"For kidnapping me, blindfolding me and trying to kiss me!"

"It's your birthday present." His voice was empty, so hollow, he sounded
crushed.

"Ah, uh, er, oh... I'm sorry... But you should have told me." She dropped
her head.

"It was a surprise..." She felt his hand touch her cheek and pull her face
towards him. He lifted the blindfold and she glanced around. They were in a
private cabin, a fire was going, there was a few scented ces ses scattered
around, and one bed off in the corner. She was touched, but insulted that he
thought he could get some just because he kidnapped her!

"Uh.. um... " She looked to him, he had a sexy smile on his face and he
scooted closer to her. He leaned over and brushed hiss ons on her cheek, they were
so soft ... so ... very ... soft... She closed her eyes and allowed him to
adventure with his lips down to her neck. She involuntarily let a quiet moan
escape her lips. Miroku growled, pleased at her response. He tested her limits
and let his tongue trail along her neck, she tasted so good.

She gasped slightly and pulled away. "We-we shouldn't..." The look on

Miroku's face was as if she took an arrow and stabbed him, viciously, through the
heart. "Ah, sorry... It's just that-..."

"Just what?" He sighed and looked away.

"Why are you doing this? Just so you can gain your own pleasures? Or-"

She was cut off as he hopped off the couch and kneeled in front of her, he
looked her in the eyes. "Sango-chan... I love you. Don't you know that? I
could have had so many other woman but I refused because I only love you. Sure,
I don't act that way, I ask other women to bear my children, but I only
wanted to make you see that you love me too. I know you do! Just.. can't you
admit it? I won't tanyoanyone if you don't want me to. Please..." His eyes
pleaded to her.

She was stunned into silence, she didn't know what to say. Now that she
thought about it--she DID love him. Why did she always get jealous when he'd act
that way around other women, she loved him too much to think of the
possibility that he would be with another women for the rest of his life.

She reached her cuffed hand out and held his, she squeezed it softly. "I
love you."

The look on his face expressed more happiness than words could say. He
hugged her around the waist and unintentionally buried his face in her boobs. She
rolled her eyes and rested her head on his.

He lifted his face to hers and kissed her, more passionately and heatedly
than imaginable. She kissed him back, and groaned when she went to wrap her arms
around him and found the painful memory of the cuffs.

He stopped the kiss and glanced at the handcuffs. He chuckled and shot her a
mischievous grin, it sent chills down her spine. He stood and pulled to to
himself. He picked her up like a groom does to his wife and carried her to
the bed. He kissed her neck, bit it softly and laid her down.

He walked over and grabbed the bag he had earlier, returned to her and sat on
the bed. He opened the bag and poured the insides onto the bed....
