Summary: SANZOxGOKUWhat happens when Sanzo gets drunk and strikes Goku across the face? Goku runs, of course. But what happens when Sanzo wakes up the next day (with an awful hangover, I will add) and finds the monkey gone? sLaSh…my first story…gimme a break. Sorry yall, I suck at summaries!

Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own Saiyuki or the characters associated with it…

Reviews: YAY!

Flames: cranks up chainsaw

BTW: ""…that means talking (obviously)

''…that means thinking!

Sanzo sat at the window sill of his room at the inn, smoking a cigarette while watching the rain outside pour down. The others were off doing their own thing: Gojyo was at the bar, naturally; Hakkai was, for some reason, out getting groceries in the rain, and Goku, well, Sanzo didn't know where the monkey was.

'Ch. Not like I care about that stupid chimp, anyways' thought the golden-haired monk, as he took a nice, long drag from his Marlboro cigarette. Just then, Goku bounded through the door shouting. 'Speak of the devil' thought Sanzo.

"SANZO" Goku yelled, running up to the window and shouting right in Sanzo's face, "I REFUSE TO SHARE A ROOM WITH THAT STUPID KAPPA!"

"YOU THINK I WANNA SHARE A ROOM WITH YOU, YOU DAMN CHIMP?" Goyjo entered the room then, shouting just as loud as Goku.

Just then, a giant paper fan appeared in Sanzo's hand and collided with the Goku and Gojyo's heads, the disappeared once more inside the monk's robe. (A/N: Where does he keep that thing!)

"Goku, you room with me tonight." Sanzo said, "Gojyo, room with Hakkai. Don't think I'm being nice, I'm just not in the mood to be up all night listening to you two fighting."

Gojyo left the room while Goku stayed where he was in front of Sanzo. Sanzo, noticing that he was still standing there, came from his thoughts and looked up at Goku.

"What is it now?" he said, sounding very much annoyed. Goku just continued to stare at him, a look of concern in his golden eyes.

"Are you okay, Sanzo? You seem grumpier than usual and you don't smoke this much on a usual day" he said.

"Don't worry about it. It doesn't concern you."

"Yes it does!"

"Look, just shut up and go get me a beer." Goku continued to just stand there. "Did you hear me? I said go get me a beer," Sanzo repeated, the tone in his voice becoming a bit more dangerous.

"Okay, okay" said Goku, turning and walking towards the door.

"Actually, make that two beers" said the amethyst-eyed priest. "Better yet, just bring me a whole damn box."

"Sanzo, I don't think you really need a whole box, do you?" the concern in the monkey's voice could be heard again.

Sanzo held up his gun and said through clenched teeth, "Do you want to die?"

"Okay! I'll get it!" Goku ran out of the room.

'Ch. That's more like it' thought Sanzo. The rain continued to pour down outside, the drops rolled down the window-glass like tears. The rain always put Sanzo in a bad mood, and Sanzo was a bit surprised that Goku hadn't figured that out yet. 'Why is he always pestering me? Stupid chimp.' he thought, 'It's always the same thing…I'm hungry…I'm thirsty…I don't wanna room with Gojyo…I'm bored. It gets so fucking annoying, I almost want to shoot him…almost…' Truth be told, Sanzo really did care for Goku, even though he didn't want to admit it to himself; his feelings for the boy had changed throughout the last few years since he'd found him on that mountain. Just then, Goku walked through the door carrying a big box of beer and set it on the little table next to Sanzo.

"There's your beer," said Goku, then walked over and threw himself on the bed. He listened while Sanzo popped the beer cans open and gulped them down, one after the other. After a while, Goku started to get a little worried about Sanzo. He had counted every time Sanzo popped a can open and looked up at the monk on number nine.

"Sanzo…" Goku said, "maybe you should stop." Sanzo didn't turn around. Goku then ran to Sanzo and snatched the can from his fingers. "You've had too many, Sanzo!" Just then, the hand that was holding the can of beer clenched into a fist. Sanzo then began to speak, his voice severely slurred.

"Goku, shut up and give me that can." Sanzo reached for the drink, but Goku pulled it away more.

"No! Sanzo, what the heck is wrong with you? You're acting all weird, and you're drunk! You need to stop. What's the matter? Why can't you tell me? C'mon Sanzo! Tell me! I want to help!" Goku's voice was beginning to hurt Sanzo's head.

"SHUT UP!" Sanzo yelled, then advanced towards Goku and struck him hard across the face. Goku fell to the floor, dropping the can and spilling the beer all over the ground. "Now look what you did, you stupid ape! You spilled it everywhere!" Sanzo continued to yell in his still-slurred voice. He went over to Goku and kicked him. Goku didn't make a sound, he just laid there. Finally, Goku lifted his hand to his mouth and brought it away, finding that his fingers were covered with his own blood. He got up, tears welling up in his golden eyes, and ran. He ran out of the room, out of the inn, and into the cold, pouring rain.

Sanzo, who was still in the room, just looked at the open door that Goku had just ran out of. The reality of what he had just done suddenly clicked in the drunk man's mind. He collapsed on the edge of the bed, holding his head in his hands.

TBC…(if people think its any good)

A/N: Wow, that sucked! Haha. Lots of dialogue! Anyways, review and tell me if you think it's good enough to continue. I said it will be slash, and it will be! But it's gonna be that kind of thing that takes a little time. Not too much though! –wink- See ya'll later!
