Miroku had a predicament.  He had a crush, but was certain it would not be returned.  In fact, he was in love.  And was sure it would not be returned.  How would one tell a hanyou that was in love with a human miko that you’re not in love with the taijiya, but with him?  When you yourself are a man?

This, as Kagome would say, was quite a pickle.  He swallowed nervously and looked at the irritated Inuyasha.  “Uh…”

“Well?  What the hell did you want, monk?  I was supposed to be waiting at the well for Kagome, but you had to drag me off to Kami-knows-where to tell me something important.  So, out with it!” the white-haired half-demon snapped irritably.

“Well…”  Miroku sighed.  This wasn’t going as well as he’d hoped, as you can imagine.  Inuyasha was quite a ruff and tumble kind of guy, and he would as soon die than let Miroku touch him, let alone fall in love with him.  Miroku, you see, was having second thoughts.

“Well?”

Miroku swallowed, closed his eyes, and said it all in a rush.  “IthinkI’minlovewithyou,notSongou!”  He expected a violent blow, but when none came, he slowly opened his eyes.

Inuyasha sat there, staring at him.  A small blush was effectively turning his face the shade of his robes as he cleared his throat.  “Could you… repeat that?” the hanyou choked out.

Miroku decided he may as well.  “I… I think I’m in love with you, Inuyasha,” he admitted.

The hanyou stood up abruptly and walked away stiffly.  Miroku supposed it could have gone worse, considering.  He was almost relieved.  That is, until Inuyasha returned with Sangou.  Miroku cringed.  This wasn’t going to go well.  “Oh…  Uh, hello?”

Sangou watched him for a moment.  “You’re in love with Inuyasha?” she asked, clearly confused.

“No.  It was a joke,” Miroku replied, a slight smirk on his face.

Both Sangou and Inuyasha looked relieved… for all of two seconds.

“You stupid monk!” Inuyasha screamed.  “I’m gonna get ya fer that!”

Sangou sat up in bed and sighed in relief.  It was just a dream.  Miroku wasn’t really in love with…  Her eyes landed on said monk, lying beside an upright Inuyasha.  Both were sleeping soundly.

“OW!” Miroku cried, sitting up and rubbing the bright-red handprint on his cheek.

Inuyasha sighed from his seat and opened one eye. “What?  Were you groping her in your sleep, now?” he asked sarcastically, knowing that this was completely unwarranted.

“No!  I was dreaming nicely and innocently about the final battle with Naraku and I’m suddenly slapped like I was doing something wrong!” the houshi protested.

The half-demon eyed the irritated Sangou as he spoke.  “Bet Kagura, Kanna, Sangou and Kagome were all naked,” he said with a snort.

Miroku flushed.  “That’s beside the point,” he huffed, making no attempt to deny the accusation.

Inuyasha hit him upside the head.  “Kagome doesn’t deserve your lecherous ways,” he growled, sitting back in his original position.

“Sangou, my dearest, what has gotten into you?” Miroku asked.

“I had a dream that… made a lot of sense,” she huffed.

“Tell me about it and I’ll console your fears,” he said in a placating manner.

“I don’t want your kind of consolation!” she said with a snort, crossing her arms.

“But, my dear! I would never-“

“Can it.  Are you yaoi for Inuyasha?”

There was a silence in which a few crickets were chirping.  Finally, Miroku spoke.  

“No.  Where did you get that idea?”

She blushed deeply. “Never mind. It’s just a dream…”
