I do not own Inuyasha & Company, Rumiko Takahashi does. Though I do own the characters I've created in my stories. Especially Ayume Izumi, so don't try and steal her!


Ayume's cell phone buzzed on the coffee table in front of them. "Damn, who could be calling right now," but the buzzing stopped, it was a text message. Inuyasha opened the phone and his eyes sprang open with disbelief at who it was from.

Text Message:

R we still on 4 breakfast 2morrow? ;]

Little Osaka Breakfast Nook on Nakumora Ave. 8 am

-Koga

"Damn wolf, that two timing bastard. I'll just show him at breakfast tomorrow, whose friends he's dealing with." the male hanyou said with an evil smirk to himself.

***

It was Tuesday morning, when the sleepy male hanyou woke up to find that the warmth of the other body was missing. He looked around from his spot on the couch and heard the shower running.

'Hm, she's in the shower, I wonder when she got off of me.'

Inuyasha heard the door to the bathroom open, so he got up.

"Inuyasha, are you up y-," she was interrupted when she walked head-on into the man, knocking the both of them over. She was wrapped in a green towel with black slippers on since she just got out of the shower, and Inuyasha was on top leaning on his elbows so he didn't squish the girl.

"Ayume, I'm so sorry! I-I didn't mean to, I mean, I didn't see you coming. I'm sorry!", his face redder than ever as his body was grinded into hers'.

"It's okay, I wasn't paying attention, but do you think you could possibly get off of me. I don't mind this position and all, but I kinda just wanna finish drying off, that's all", she giggled with a smirk.

Inuyasha removed himself from on top of her, "Hey I was wondering if you had a toothbrush I could borrow?"

"Use mine," he quirked an eyebrow at her, "What? We've done worse ya know," she winked.

"Whatever," he stopped as a memory popped into his head, he smiled.

"Hey Ayume," he turned around, but she wasn't there.

"Yeah?", she yelled from her room.

"Do you feel like going out for breakfast? Just the two of us?"

"Okay! Let's do it, but where did you have in mind?"

"Oh, how about Little Osaka Breakfast Nook," he said with a glint in his eye, "Its pretty new, and I know you haven't been there before."

"Sure, just let me, and possibly yourself, finish getting ready and we can go."

"Alright, I'll do that then," he turned away from the direction of her room and into the bathroom. He picked up her dainty purple toothbrush and looked at it, "Well we have done worse before, so this shouldn't be any different," and with that he squeezed some paste on the brush and shoved into his mouth.

About a half hour later it was 7:46 am. Inuyasha was shaking with anticipation to get out of the apartment.

"C'mon Ayume, let's go!" he yelled from the living room. He was wearing his same outfit from yesterday, but it was washed that night. He wore a Periwinkle dress shirt, no tie, and his black slacks. As for shoes, he had on his black Armani shoes and held his coat that matched his pants in one hand.

"Let's go Ayume!" he yelled through the apartment.

"I'm coming, hold your horses mister!" She came out of her room wearing an orange cotton dress that came up above her knees with spaghetti straps. It had a darker orange floral and paisley design on it and little cream colored pom poms that were sowed on under the breast area. She wore cream colored flats that had dark orange bows on the heels of the shoes. To top it all off, she wore her hair down with a matching headband.

"I'm ready now, so let's head out."

"Well, don't you look cute. Do you wanna catch a cab there?"

"Nah, Nakumora is about four blocks from here, we can just walk. Ya know, save gas, money, and the planet from toxic emissions?" she giggled.

"Keh, whatever you say," he said with a shrug as they walked out the door.

'Wow, this is the first time I'm gonna see her in years. I better get her something special,' the panicky man thought as he looked across the street at a flower shop.

'Flowers, that's perfect!' he exclaimed in his head with a wide grin on his face.

"Hello sir, welcome to my humble little flower shop. How may I help you today?" a little old man with a gray mustache and a receding hairline said to Koga.

"Umm, yeah. I need flowers quick!"

"Do you have a certain one in particular?"

"Flame Lilies, there her favorite."

"Ah, so this is for a special young lady, neh?"

"Yes sir, very special," he grinned even more baring one of his fangs.

"That'll be ¥250, sir."

"Here, thanks."

"Good luck with that special someone."

"Thanks a lot!"

**

"Ha ha, yeah that one was cute. Tell me another American joke." Inuyasha laughed on.

"Okay, okay. Knock knock."

"Who's there?"

"Boo."

"Boo? Boo who?"

"Aw Inuyasha, I'm sorry I made you cry," she giggled at the man.

"Oh I get it, I'm going to have to tell that one to Sesshoumaru, just to see the look on his face, ha ha."

"Oh that'll be classic. I wanna be there when you tell him!"

"Well look, here we are." 'Now where is that wolf?'

"Ooh Yash, lets get a table outside, please?" she cupped her hands together and looked at him.

"Fine. C'mon there's one right the-" he stopped as he saw the familiar face, "Well what do ya know, Koga's here." he said with a smirk.

"Wait what?! Koga's here…where? Don't tell me this is the place I was supposed to meet him, I totally forgot!"

Ayume slapped the base of her forehead with her hand; frustration upon her face as the wolf demon got up from his seat to walk over to the couple.

"Ayume, you made it…and you brought Inuyasha along with you."

"Hi to you too Koga. Bastard."

"Stop it. Actually Koga, I forgot about having breakfast with you. I came here with Inuyasha to have breakfast."

"Wait, didn't you get my text last night? This is where I wanted to meet you."

"I'm sorry no I didn't, but since we're all here why don't we enjoy it together, neh?" she smiled at the two men.

"Okay," they said in unison.

"Great!"

"Umm, Ayume, I got you flowers."

"Aw, you shouldn't have," she began blushing. "Oh my favorite, thank you."

"Yeah, you shouldn't have, but since you're given away flowers, where's mine?" he smirked at Koga.

"Well mutt, if I had known you were coming, I would've bought you some Pansies, but I didn't, sorry." he chuckled.

"Keh, whatever. Stupid wolf."

"Hey, hey you two, no fighting its to early for that. Let's just sit while we wait for someone to take our order."

"He started it! Like every other time, its always the damn wolf's fault."

"Shut up mutt, you're the only fault here!"

"Okay, stop it! People are starting to stare." Ayume sat down.

"Fine," they said once more in unison and sat down.

"So Ayume, how's it been?" Koga asked shyly.

"It's been okay, besides the few little things that have been going on since I got back," Inuyasha eyed her suspiciously, but she ignored it.

"Oh."

"Uh huh."

The three stayed quiet for the next five minutes until the waitress came by.

"Hi everyone! My name is Kasumi, and I'll be taking your order this morning." she gave them a gleaming smile which Ayume returned to her.

"Hi Kasumi, my brother and I will have an iced tea please."

"Okay, and for you sir?"

"I'll have a cup of coffee please."

"Do you want it black?"

"Yes, that'll do."

"Okay then I'll be right back."

With that the waitress skipped off towards the inside of the nook. Ayume turned her eyes toward Koga and stared at him intently. "Hey Koga."

"Hmm?"

"How is it going with you and Kagome?"

"Uh, wha- how did you, I mean when did you-? It's fine, but who told you," he choked out.

"Oh well, I found out from the others," Inuyasha sighed, thanking Ayume silently that she didn't direct it at who really told her.

"Oh, well that's something I wanted to talk to you about."

"Well since I'm here now, what did you want to say?"

"Inuyasha could you give us a moment, alone?" Inuyasha quirked an eyebrow at the man.

"Keh, whatever you have to say to her, you can say to me."

"Yash," she looked at him sympathetically, "give us a moment will ya?"

"Fine. Don't try anything wolf!"

"Okay, now leave."

With that Inuyasha left the two alone. He walked inside of the restaurant, and passed by a window that looked outside. He paused at the window and had a great view of the two, just so he could keep an eye on them.

"So…"

"Um, yeah. What I wanted to say was that I have been going out with Kagome. For awhile now, too."

"Oh, well yeah, I already knew that. But, why are you bringing it up?"

"Well, today I'm going to-"

"Okay, here are your drinks! Sorry it took so long, the coffee machine wasn't acting right, but we fixed it." Kasumi smiled at the two. "Um, may I ask where your brother is? I want to let him know his drink is here."

"Oh he'll be right back."

"Okay then, do you want me to take your orders, or do you need more time and need to wait for him?"

"Can we have some more time please?" Koga answered for her, grinning widely at the woman.

"Yes sir," she blushed, "take as long as you need."

"Thank you." he winked.

Kasumi giggled and gave them a bow as she walked away.

"Ah hm," Ayume cleared her throat, which brought Koga's attention back to her, "so what were you saying?"

"Ayume, I'm not going to stall any longer. I'm going to breakup with Kagome so I can be with you again!"

Ayume was flabbergasted. "Wait, wha, what?!"

"Yeah you heard me. Kagome actually asked me out, and I told yes because I do like her, ya know. I couldn't stand it when you were gone, I wanted you back in my life, but I didn't think you wanted me back in your's, so I just left you alone and never bothered to call."

"Koga, I…" she blushed from her lack of words.

"I'd really like to give 'us' another chance, as long as you don't ruin it again."

"Um, okay-. Excuse me?"

"What?"

"Did you just say as long as I don't ruin it again? Because I don't remember 'us' taking a break, being my fault!"

Her face was losing the rosy blush, and turning into a rash red. The two rose quickly, from opposite ends of the table staring at each other.

"Well, you did start acting like a bitch after a while!"

"You ass, don't call me a bitch, you, you bastard!"

Inuyasha moved from his spot at the window view, and began walking back to where he had left Ayume and Koga. He could here the arguing from inside, but he couldn't feel the tension until he started getting closer.

"You know what Koga, don't break up with Kagome because of me. She genuinely likes you, which I really don't right now." She picked up her glass of ice tea and took a sip, "Plus, you really need to cool down," and she splashed the man, dumping all her tea on him. She took the lemon slice that was on the edge of the cup and placed in her mouth licking it, and then flung it at him which landed in his hair.

"Good day to you!"

Inuyasha ran up beside Ayume and grabbed her shoulder. "Ayume, what happened?"

"Oh nothing, I just suggested that Koga cool off, and I helped a bit." She smiled cockily at the hanyou, "Let's go Yash, I'll make us something at home." She grabbed the flower and stormed off.

Inuyasha looked at the wolf with a bit a sympathy, but then smirked, "That's what you get when you fool around man."

"Shut up mutt!" He shook his hands and dabbed at his shirt with the napkins from the table. Some people were staring, while others were snickering and giving whispers about the recent incident. He picked the lemon slice out of his hair and threw it to the ground.

'Women are fucking crazy! But it's true, you can't live with them, and you can't live with out them…but at least she's not fully mad at me.' He eyed the flower as the two hanyous walked off.
