A/N: Another chapter down~! And... I have no idea how many more to go! *sad face* I have no idea how long this story is going to be, dead cereal bro. lol. I woulda typed this yesterday but yeah... I kind of had a shit ton going on and I was super duper busy with my sister in law and super duper depressed and crying for like... 3 hours straight? And went straight to bed after I finished crying. Anyways, figured I'd type this now, since ya know... _ It's kinda late and I had another busy day with 3 wild children and two dog's. xD Oh well. On with the story~!

I sat at the bar for breakfast as I forked the egg's on my plate, the sausage marinating in syrup on the saucer to my left. I bit a fork of egg's as Shippo was on the other side of the table coloring at the book. I smiled at him softly as InuYasha came down the stairs. "Hey, InuYasha-chan."

"Good morning." InuYasha ruffled my hair as the chef set a plate with a big thick cheese burger and a big slab of French fries. "Mm, breakfast for the champions." He licked his lips hungrily as he sat next to me, picking up several French fries.

"That looks so greasy…"

"It's delicious. The grease is what makes it so damn good." InuYasha started in on the burger, taking a big bite.

The chef put a plate of an egg white omelet, some fruits on the plate as well. Sesshomaru came walking down the stairs, a little girl skipping behind him, chattering a mile a minute. "Eat." Sesshomaru said in his normal monotone voice, as I couldn't help but stare at him in his off-black suit, his royal blue tie neatly around his neck.

"Yes Sesshomaru-sama." The girl giggled out as one of the butler's picked her up and sat her on the high stool. "Ah, Sesshomaru-sama." She said sheepishly as she looked at him with her big brown eyes, the plate being left untouched. Sesshomaru never answered her verbally, he just raised an eyebrow, indicating he was listening. "Rin doesn't want this."

"Ah, I'm so sorry Rin-hime, let me get you something else."

"No." Sesshomaru sipped his black coffee slowly as he glanced at Rin. "You eat what was made for you. Tomorrow you will tell them if you want anything different."

"Okay, Sesshomaru-sama." The little girl didn't argue, or put up a fight, just started eating what she had, a side ponytail bounced as she kicked her feet.

I finished my meal as I saw InuYasha take a large drink of soda to clear his throat. "Kags." I turned to look at InuYasha as he stood up, wiping his hands and face off on a napkin. "Let's go out and go shopping for school supplies."

My eyes darted towards the clock that read 9:30. "I can't InuYasha-chan." I smiled sheepishly as Shippo picked up another crayon, coloring some more.

"Why not?"

"Kagome has a job interview." Shippo piped out happily, his tail wagging. "Kagome wants to be able to support us both, and she has a job interview today at lunch time." Shippo looked up and giggled happily. "She's taking me to Obaa-sama and she's going to watch me."

"Oh?" InuYasha looked at me as I stood up. "Where's the interview at?"

"Shizen Incorporation. They are hiring for a secretary full time. I have a really good shot at this job, InuYasha-chan" I smiled as I ran my hand against my dress pants.

"How're you getting there?"

"I was going to take a cab to Mama's and then take the bus to the city."

"Kags, that's an hour wait for a cab." InuYasha looked at me shocked. "Maybe I cancel my lunch date and just take you to the interview—"

"No. You are not cancelling anything." I poked at his chest angrily, setting one hand on my hip. "I will get there, but I just have to leave very soon."

"No." I shot my head to look at Sesshomaru as he sipped his coffee calmly. InuYasha was just as shocked as I was by Sesshomaru calm answer. "I will give you a ride to the interview. I go by that area on my way to work. It's a quick stop. Jaken." His voice barked out as the small man came running out, his hands fiddling with his traditional clothing. "You will be watching Higurashi-san's son as well as Rin today."

"What, milord?" Jaken was baffled.

Shippo looked at me softly, his eyes sad. "I don't get to see Obaa-sama today?"

"I'm sorry, Sesshomaru but I can just take a cab. I'll be fine."

"No. You do not want to go to an important interview smelling of cigarette's and public transportation."

"Woah, why don't I just—"

"You are not cancelling your date with Onigumo-san, InuYasha-chan." I barked out as InuYasha's ear's flattened against his head.

"But Kags…" InuYasha's eyes darted towards Sesshomaru, worry etched onto his face. "Will you be okay?"

"I'll be fine." I pinched his cheek softly, sticking out my tongue playfully. "I'm a big girl."

I sighed in relief as I leaned back in a chair in the library, the sun setting off in the distance over the mountains. Stretching my arms above my head, I yawned softly, my hair that was twisted into a bun down over my shoulders and neck, a book laying against my legs. I leaned back as I flipped my legs over one of the arm rest's. "It feels so nice to get out of those stuffy clothes." I whimpered out, stretching my toes slightly. My short black shorts barely covered my legs as I wore a white tank top with a paw print on the front.

Sesshomaru not only had taken me to the interview, had his stuffy little helper watch Shippo, but he had waited for me to finish it, and took me back to their house. I hadn't expected that, honestly. I had expected to walk or take a cab. My eyes turned to the black hard cover book with soft blue writing. Shippo wasn't exactly asleep yet, but he was so focused on playing with Rin that it seemed he had forgotten that I was there.

"Reading?" His calm voice interrupted my thoughts as I jolted upright, feeling my face heat up. He walked in his a white t-shirt, a pair of light blue jeans lightly hanging off of his hips sexily. "That boy of yours is one bundle of energy."

"Yeah. I think he's in a growth spurt…" I said awkwardly as I looked at my fingers. "Obaa-san was telling me that fox demon's grew a lot slower, but hit larger growth spurts, usually only hitting one every some decades."

"Hn."

"She also said that from the feel of his demonic aura and his weight and height, he was about 60 years old, but he only appeared to be so young… Especially since he is full-demon. Though, she was telling me that since I'm raising him he's more likely to hit growth spurts a lot faster, and he would grow up and become more serious because of my aging."

Sesshomaru didn't respond. He knew I was babbling. Hell, how could he not? I was so nervous. He had not glanced at me once since I came to their house. I heard little footsteps as I stared at the door being flung open. "Kagome." Shippo jumped on my legs as I smiled at him. "Are you going to tell me a story like you did at your house?"

"Hm." I placed my index finger on my chin, pouting out my lips. "Do you want a story?"

"Yes." He chirped out happily as he sat on my stomach, laying his head on my chest. "I want a story right now."

"Are you sleepy?"

"Yes…" He yawned out as I stood up, holding him still.

"Okay, Shippo-chan. Let's get you in bed." I turned around to look at Sesshomaru, his eyes on a book in his hands. "Good night, Sesshomaru."

Sesshomaru's molten gold eyes turned to look at me, his eyes holding a softer look in them. "Good night, Kagome."
