Playing Mister Romantic
It's been approximately a year since Sesshoumaru found Rin, his half-demon daughter on his front porch. It's been four months since Sesshoumaru had asked Miss Kagome to be his girlfriend. How can Daddy Fluffy possibly be a loving father and a loving boyfriend at the same time?

Sesshoumaru gazed at the sleeping toddler. The steady rise and fall of her chest told him that she was fast asleep and her easy breathing calmed the great taiyoukai down. The little hanyou had been running around all day, making sure to tire out her grandfather, father, and well...Kagome.
Speaking of the dark-haired woman, Kagome leaned against the door frame, arms crossed with a serene look on her face. Noticing her presence, Sesshoumaru walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. She jumped at the sudden invasion of space but soon calmed to his touch.
Sesshoumaru could only sigh. He could admit that his life was indeed perfect—perfect to an extent. His daughter was growing at a rapid rate and was turning out to be such a bright little hellion, his father was finally leaving him alone, and Kagome was his. Well, she was his to an extent.
He had explained her situation to him countless of times and he understood. Also though it did oddly hurt his feelings, he accepted it. Kagome indeed harbor feelings for him, yet they were not as strong as his. Becoming his girlfriend also meant becoming his friend, and Sesshoumaru found it hard to reveal some of his darkest secrets to her. But she—she was like an open book. Whenever he asked her about her family or her aspirations, she never doubted to answer.
It was enough for him to know that she wanted to be in a relationship with him. And it was a plus that she adored Rin as her own kin.
"I have to go home soon. Mama will start to worry," she softly whispered, twisting herself around his arms.
Sesshoumaru nodded and closed his eyes, taking in her scent. She had spent the whole entire day at his home and it was fair that she would go home. Kagome had thought that it would inappropriate for her to be constantly sleeping at his house, unless it was to babysit Rin overnight, and insisted that she lived with her family at their shrine. And that was when Sesshoumaru realized that he was unable to say "no" to three women: his mother, his daughter, and Kagome.
He walked her to her car, surprised at the fact that the stars were highly visible tonight. "I would volunteer to drive you home but—"
"No," Kagome interrupted, touching his lips with her finger, "You know how Rin gets when she suddenly wakes up and doesn't see you or me. I can handle driving by myself tonight." Her reassuring tone made Sesshoumaru back down his insisting. Soon, she was on her tiptoes, giving his a chaste kiss on the lips.
Rolling down her windows, Kagome gave him a cheeky smile before starting her engine. "Early tomorrow morning, right?"
Sesshoumaru nodded and gave her a rare smile. "Bright and early. We wouldn't want to keep my mother waiting."

Sesshoumaru will explain his situation with Kagome as the chapter goes on. Technically, Kagome said "yes" to be his girlfriend but doesn't really know the real him. So they're going to be learning from each other as the story goes on. And yes, Rin will be making a lot of appearances—so will Sango, Miroku, Kouga, Ayame, Inuyasha, Kikyou, Inutaisho, Izayoi, and Sesshoumaru's mother!
For those of you who are confused, this is the sequel/continuation story for Playing Daddy. That story is a bit rushed, but no worries! This one will explore Sesshoumaru and Kagome's relationship in-depth, and yes readers, you will figure who Rin's real mother is in this story too! If you'd like to get a quick background knowledge of this, you can definitely read Playing Daddy!
