"Sweetie, I think they're here," said a lady who looked like she was in her late twenties. She looked down at her son who was playing with his toys. He looked up at his mother with hopeful eyes.
"Really Mama? Mei-chan (pronounced May-chan) is finally here?" asked the little boy. He had the most mesmerizing amber coloured eyes and astonishing silver hair. You could already tell that he would be a total suttee when he grew up.
"Yes sweetie I think that's them at the door; why don't you go and see, I'm sure Mina-chan can take you. Right Mina-chan," said the lady once again, this time looking at a young girl who looked to be only 19 years-old.
"Of course lady Izayoi; come Inu-kun, let's go see if Mei-chan is here yet," said the young girl known as Mina.
"Okay Mina-chan!" said the excited eight-year-old. The two walked hand-in-hand to the front door. Once they opened it, there stood a woman in her early thirties with a little girl standing right beside her.
"Sha-kun!!" yelled the little girl as she ran up to the little boy.
"Mei-chan I was waiting for you to come all morning! Come I want to show you the new sand box in the back yard!" said the little boy as he dragged the little girl through his house towards his backyard.
"Sometimes I just don't get those two. They both know how to say each other's name but the still use those absurd nick names for each other," said the mother of the little girl.
"They're just kids being kids, Miss Kimiko," said Mina
"I know, but sometimes I wonder how they'll turn out when they become older," said Kimiko with a dreamy smile.
"Oh I know Miss Kimiko, it would be great if they were to become an item when they are older," said Mina.
"Yes, but I'll have to worry about that when it happens. Now where is my dear friend Izayoi?" asked Kimiko.
"Right this way Miss," said Mina leading Kimiko back to the room that Izayoi was in.

"Come on Mei-chan, you're so slow!" said the little boy.
"Well sorry Sha-kun, but unlike you I'm only human! Why can't you wait for me!" yelled the seven-year-old girl. The little boy rolled his eyes and waited for his best friend to catch up to him. Once she was standing beside him, he grabbed her hand and dragged her all the way to the sand box.
"Wow Sha-kun this is so cool! I wish Mama would make something like this in our back yard!" said the girl known as Mei.
"Yeah I know, but fluffy thinks it's childish, e says he had more important things to worry about other than these—what did he say…oh yea—trivial things," said Inu talking about his older hald brother.
"That's because he had a girl friend," said Mei.
"Yeah Kagu—something," shuddered Inu. "I don't like her at all!"
"I know," agreed Mei.
"But enough about her! Let's go play!" said Inu.
"Okay!" said Mei just as eager to start playing in the new sand box, and so they got in and started building their works of art. Together they built a huge sand castle that was big enough for Inu to stand in the middle of. Once they finished Mei let out a sigh.
"What's wrong, Mei-chan?" asked Inu.
"I'm bored!" she whined.
"But we just made such a cool castle look! You can be the queen of the castle and I'll be the king!" said Inu.
"No Sha-kun! Can we go walk in Auntie Izy's garden, please?!" asked Mei.
" (Sigh) Fine, lets get," said Inu as he got up pulling her with him.
"Waii! Thank you Sha-kun!" said Mei as she took him into a hug.
"Okay, lets just go!" said Inu with a groan. Mei only nodded as she hold onto his arm. They walked through the flower garden, but since it was the beginning of spring, none of the flowers had bloomed yet. They kept walking until Mei stopped with a amazed expression on her face. Inu looked at her like she was crazy.
"Mei wha—"
"Kierie! (pretty; I don't think I spelled it right!)" said Mei as she looked at the single pink lily that had bloomed.
"Oh," said Inu as he realized that she was looking at her favourite flower. "I don't understand why girls like flowers so much," mumbled Inu.
"Oh be quiet Sha-kun, but um can I ask you something?" asked Mei.
"Yeah what is it Mei?" asked Inu.
"Am I allowed to have that flower?" asked the little firl.
"What, you want that? But it's so high, Mama planted it so high in that basket thingy so I wouldn't be able to drop it," said Inu.
"But, but Sha-kun you can jump up there, no problem, please! You know I love that flower!" said Mei as she patted his ears on top of his head to justify why he is able to just so high. Inu just rolled his eyes, but jumped up towards the flower anyway. He grabbed the bottom of the stem and snapped it before he came back down. Mei squealed as he held the flower out to her, and she took it graciously.
"Arigatou, Sha-kun!" said Mei as she leaned in and kissed his cheek. He blushed but didn't say anything. Then Mei took his hand and took him towards the bench that was positioned under a big oak tree. They both sat down beside each other on the bench quietly.
"Sha-kun?"
"Hmm?"
"Can I ask you a question?"
"You just did baka!" snorted Inu. Mei just rolled her eyes.
"Well, then another one."
"Okay shoot."
"When we are older can I be………your girlfriend?" she asked timidly. He looked at her.
"No," was his curt reply.
"But why not," she asked but it sounded more like a whine.
"Because Fluffy told me that when you have a girlfriend you two don't last that long. He said that if you want to be with someone forever, never make her your girlfriend," said Inu.
"Then what are you supposed to make her?" asked Mei cutely.
"He said you have to make her you…… wife," said Inu.
"You mean like how Mama is papa's wife, and Auntie Izy is Uncle Inu's wife?" asked Mei.
"Yes like that," said Inu.
"Okay then Sha-kun can I be your wife?" asked Mei with a hopeful voice.
"Hmm, I'll think about it," said Inu.
"But Sha-kun! Don't you want to be with me forever?" asked Mei.
"Hmm, okay Mei-chan you can be my wife, cause I want to be your friend forever!" said Inu with a big smile on his face.
"Oh Sha-kun you are the greatest!" said Mei
"Yeah I know, but first you have to know that my actual name isn't 'Sha-kun'," said Inu.
"I know that," said Mei as she rolled her eyes.
"Well then what is my full name?" asked Inu.
"Inu-ya-sha! Of course I know your name!" said Mei.
"Okay good. I thought that you forgot my real name, Mei-chan," said Inu in a teasing voice.
"I didn't, but do you know my real name?" asked Mei.
"Well duh, you are Ka-go-me and you are my best friend and my future wife," said Inuyasha with a charming smile.

"Look at those two Kimmie, imagine if they got together, and then got married. We would be in-laws!" said an excited Izayoi.
"Yes I know, they already look perfect for each other," said Kimiko.
"Ladies are you planning our kids' wedding again?" asked InuTaisho as he walked outside to where the women were.
"Of course Inu-kun. After all you will soon have a daughterin-law," said Kimiko.
"What Sessh is getting married? But that Kagura girl does not seem like the right choice," said the clueless man.
"No silly, she's talking about Kagome and Inuyasha, don't you think they are perfect for each other?" asked Izayoi.
"Oh of course, I knew that from the day our dear Kagome was born," said InuTaisho with a smile.
"Well let's just hope that it happens, imagine Kagome Seira Takahashi, it just seems to fit," said Kimiko. The Takahashi couple just nodded in agreement. What they didn't know was that their kids were talking about the same thing that they were.

And I thought of it one day while I was driving, because of a certain song that came on the radio. But you'll see that later! Well what did you think? Please review so then I'll know to continue on with it. So please just tell me what you think about this, once this is out of the way I'll update Living in the Moment cause I have a chapter and a half done, but since no one wants to review there anymore then I thought I'll put up something new till I update that story!
