Chapter Twenty Eight: A Birthday That Will Never Be Forgotten.
Inuyasha said, "Can I open my eyes now Kagome?"
She said, "Yeah you can open your eyes now Inuyasha."
Inuyasha opened his eyes and looked at what she given him. On his lap lay a small box wrapped in gold paper. He looked at her and saw she was still smiling though she had moved to sit next to him.
Inuyasha said, "What's this for?"
Kagome said, "Well it is your birthday today silly its your present."
Inuyasha said, "You know you didn't have to get me anything."
Kagome said, "Yeah I know but I wanted to. Now open it already."
Inuyasha smiled and he did open it. Kagome thought, 'Oh man he's going to freak when he realizes what is in that box. I just hope he likes it. I mean it took me hours to get those yesterday. I had to wait for like forever for them.'
Inuyasha then opened the box and moved the paper off and took out what was inside. They were backward so he wouldn't be able to see what they were unless he turned them over. He placed the box behind him and was going to turn them when...
Kagome said, "I hope you like it."
Inuyasha smiled and turned them over. He nearly dropped them when he saw what they were. Kagome saw the smile Inuyasha had been sporting turn into utter surprise. Kagome smiled even bigger.
Kagome said, "I take it you like it then."
Inuyasha said, "How did you get these? There almost impossible unless you had them pre-ordered from like three years ago."
Kagome said, "I was listening to the radio yesterday after Daichi left and the radio station was giving them away as a prize for a contest. So I just called in and I was lucky enough to be the only one who answered all the questions right that's all. I got them last night so I would have them for you today."
Inuyasha hugged her tightly. He kept saying thank you. Kagome smiled even bigger if it was at all possible and said your welcome.
Inuyasha said, "Well this makes anything else I get today basically mean nothing."
Kagome laughed and said, "That good huh."
Inuyasha said, "Yeah their better then good their great. In fact their what I wanted but also knew..."
Kagome interrupted, "You most likely wouldn't get them because their sold out."
Inuyasha said, "Yeah."
Kagome said, "So when is your party going to be?"
Inuyasha said, "I have no clue. Sesshoumaru always makes sure I am the last to know. He'll send me to the mall or movies or something and when its time for the party he calls me and says to come home. He's done it for like ever so I just let him."
Kagome said, "So you get a surprise party every year without the surprise."
Inuyasha said, "Nah I'm still surprised every year because its never the same time every year. He'll do it before dusk or like three years ago he held the party at midnight so I was out all day without anyone. It was kind of fun but its boring to go to an amusement park alone ya know."
Kagome said, "I know. But its sometimes fun I mean you get to pick all the rides without having to take a vote though."
Inuyasha said, "True. But hey the parties are always cool. Though its normally more people he knows then ones I know but hey a party is a party right."
Kagome smiled and said, "Yeah it is and this year you get Kouga, Ayame, and myself there."
Inuyasha said, "That's true I do."
He kissed her on the cheek. He thought, 'Man I hope she likes the surprise I am going to give her. I know if I ask her she will only tell me not to do it but she needs this and I know she does. So I will do it just for her since she did go through all the trouble of getting me these concert tickets.'
(After dropping Kagome off at home four hours later.)
Inuyasha was driving home when his cell phone rang. He grabbed it and answered it without looking at the number.
Inuyasha said, "Yes."
"Inuyasha, what are you doing right now?"
Inuyasha said, "I'm on my way home Sesshoumaru. Why?"
"Why don't you go and have fun? I mean you don't have to come home right away. Go spend some time doing what ever you want alright. I'll call you when its time to come home."
Inuyasha smiled and thought, 'Every year. Man I wonder if he knows how predictable he is with these parties.'
Inuyasha said, "Ok I had things I wanted to take care of anyway. I will see you when I get home alright."
"Alright see you later Inuyasha."
Sesshoumaru had hung up after that and Inuyasha hung up laughing. Now all he wondered was when the party was going to be since it was like 3 in the afternoon. He dialed Mrs. Takeda's number knowing she was at work.
"Hello. Mrs. Takeda's office. How may I help you?"
"Hello I need to speak with Mrs. Takeda please," said Inuyasha.
"Who may I tell her is calling?"
Inuyasha said, "Tell her its Inuyasha Takahashi."
"One moment please."
Inuyasha waited for the secretary to patch her through to Daichi's mom.
"Hello Inuyasha. What do I owe this phone call to?"
Inuyasha said, "Hello Mrs. Takeda. I was actually hoping I could talk to you about something you did for Kagome."
"Well does she know that you know about it?"
Inuyasha said, "Yes she does. I would like to do something for her but if she knew I was going to do it then she would probably tell me not to."
"What exactly do you want to do for her?"
Inuyasha said, "Well she's been really depressed since yesterday and she still is actually. I know you helped her find her sons and I was kind of hoping that since I know her better than she thinks I do. I know that even with the information you gave her that Kagome will never actually go and get them even if she wants to because she's afraid that they will hate her or that they won't want to come with her."
"So if I may I think I know where your going with this and feel free to tell me I'm wrong if I am. But if I understand you right you want to get them for her and surprise her with them then."
Inuyasha smiled and said, "That's exactly what I wanted to do. I mean even if they decide not to go with her for any reason at least that way they know that she was at least looking for them. I mean I assume they know that their adopted right?"
"Actually Haru and Ronin aren't adopted because Kagome never signed away her parental rights like their father, Hojo, did they can't legally be adopted until she does. They know that their in foster care because their parents couldn't take care of them. That much they know."
Inuyasha said, "Then is my idea a good one or a bad one. Cause I don't want to mess up anything."
"Oh Inuyasha you couldn't mess anything up. They know their mom is the reason they can't be adopted and they don't mind in fact when their foster parents said they would adopt them after they got their mom to sign her rights over they both adamantly told them no. They don't want to be adopted in fact the only reason I gave their information to Kagome was because both Haru and Ronin asked me to find her for them. So both sides are looking for the other. See Haru and Ronin are one of my cases so it wasn't that hard to give her the information she needed."
Inuyasha said, "So they won't be freaked out when they see her."
"Well they might be a little shy at first but I don't think they will do like most children in their place since they were looking for her as well. Actually when do you want to surprise her?"
Inuyasha said, "Well my brother sent me to do what ever I wanted till the party is done he's planing for me is ready. So I was hoping since she is going to be there then I would surprise her there since it was her birthday yesterday and she didn't want anyone to celebrate it for personal reasons I figured I would use this party to surprise her as well."
"Well that is a good idea actually. See it could be a triple present then."
Inuyasha said, "Why is that? I mean I know they were looking for her too but..."
"Kagome didn't tell you I take it."
"Tell me what?" said Inuyasha.
"Well today Haru and Ronin are four years old. So you could give them their mom as a birthday present."
Inuyasha laughed and said, "I'm sorry its just funny. See this party tonight is actually my 17th birthday party actually."
"Well that is funny. Well happy birthday."
Inuyasha said, "Thank you."
"Do you know where my office is Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha said, "Yes ma'am I do."
"Well I will call their foster parents and have them bring them into my office. I will of course tell their parents what is going on so they won't think something is wrong but I will tell them not to say anything to the boys until I have a chance to tell them myself."
"I guess I am to take them from there then?" said Inuyasha.
"Yes that is exactly what is to happen. I will see you in a couple of hours alright Inuyasha."
Inuyasha said, "Alright ma'am I will see you in a couple of hours."
They both hung up and Inuyasha had no sooner hung up then his phone rang again.
Inuyasha said, "Hello"
"Hey Inuyasha."
Inuyasha said, "Hey Daichi wasn't expecting you to call me."
"Well actually I am calling because Ayame is busy trying on a new outfit and trust me a girl's clothing store is so boring when you're the only guy in it."
