IDIOTS!!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or their characters of said show. This story is not meant to infringe on anyone's ownership or rights to... said show, but rather a little ditty to show my appreciation. Please don't sue, I'm only a starving artist and my paintings suck. U.U;;;
Author's note: I tend to stay away from writing fanfiction, but right now it's seems like my only creative outlet (Starting to burst at the seams a little). Hell, I don't even write about fluff. As far as writer's block go, being able to write at all is a great feat and should not be discriminated. I'm totally going on my Muse's instincts and past memories for this little fic.
Warning! Bad language, innuendoes and shameless love, fluff and sap!
Hope you enjoy.
Kagome was lying on her bed. She had several fashion magazines spread out in front of her. It was after a while that she sensed someone starring at her. She figured it was Inuyasha waiting out side the window. She wondered why he simply couldn't use the front door like everyone else. She turned a page and hummed to self when several angry taps were heard.
"It's open," she said without batting an eyelash.
He climbed in quietly. After waiting like -a second- he began to huff and make other impatient noises. Before long he was towering over her, trying to make her acknowledge him. "Why are you just lying there! You have those shards to find!"
Kagome rested her head on one hand and turned the page. "Sorry, I can't today."
"Why not?" He demanded.
"The twins are coming to visit sometime today, and my mom left to pick up Sota, so that leaves me to greet them when they get here," She said in one breath.
"The twins aren't important right now! The Shikon no tama is!"
She sat upright, all indignant, and was about to lecture him about how important family was when the doorbell rang. She groaned audibly. "Look! I haven't seen my cousins in like forever! They came all the way from America just to see us. So Inuyasha, sorry, the twins are more important then the jewel right now. Now if you'll excuse me, I have family to greet."
Inuyasha looked stunned... America? Where the hell was that? He was about to follow her down when she looked back. She gave an evil glare telling him he better get lost or else. Grumpily, he walked into the room and out the window. Lately, she had become very irritable. He wondered if Kaede was able to fix Kagome from the illness that happens to strike every month. That wasn't right... Kagome didn't smell any different, so what the hell was her problem? He walked off into the Forrest still pondering.
Kagome on the other hand was a nervous wreck. She didn't mean to be so snotty to him, it was, well lately things had gotten weird between them. In a flash she was at the front door. Why was she so nervous? She opened the door and gawked.
"Kagome!!!" The twins said in unison. Four pair of arms reached around her and squeezed gently.
All poor Kagome could do was smile and blush. She forgot that Americans liked to hug and shake hands. She bowed to them and the mother who looked pretty as ever. Her children of course looked nothing like her.
"Hello Kagome, where's your mother?" Mrs. Koshi said.
"She went to pick up Sota at his friend's house, she'll be here any second," She said, and like clockwork the car pulled up. Again the Twins turned around and hugged Sota and her mom. Sota got really embarrassed and said nothing for a while. Once inside, everyone began to talk all at once.
Kagome could do nothing but stare at her cousin Maynard and Lola Koshi. Maynard was tall, very muscular and covered with tattoos and piercings. His hair was long and spiky. Lola on the hand looked very beautiful, especially her frusia colored hair that was flipped outward. She still had her skateboard under her arm.
Her mother and Mrs. Koshi went into the kitchen to talk. They were acting like high schools girls again. That left Sota and herself. She was glad Sota was asking all sorts of question.
"Did that piercing hurt?"
"Not as bad as the branding," Maynard said.
"Where? I want to see!"
Maynard pulled his shirt up to show the detailed branding on his upper back. Sota oohed and awed. Then he took interest in the board under Lola's arm.
"What's that Lola? It's that one of those skateboards everyone uses at the university?"
"Yeah, it is. If we have time, I show you how to ride," she said with a wink.
"Yeah! I'd like that. Um... What happen to your hair?"
She grinned mischievously, "I accidentally used Mr. bubble instead of shampoo and it turned my hair this way."
Sota's eyes got really big! "Reeeaaaallly!" and shot off to the bathroom, and soon the sound of rushing water could be heard.
Lola shook her head, "What have I done."
Kagome interjected, "It's ok, you've done us a favor. We've been trying to get him to take a showered for a week."
There was an awkward silence.
"So..." said Maynard.
"So..." Said Kagome softly.
Lola watched both of them and sighed dramatically. Guess it was up to her to lead the conversation. "So how's school Kagome? Meet any hotties there?" Kagome blushed and Maynard rolled his eyes at his sister.
"Come up to my room, I have cookies and stuff that you might like," Kagome said. She hoped that Inuyasha would be gone. She peeped inside and was grateful he was indeed gone. She led them in and felt somewhat uneasy about her modest room. The Koshi's were very wealthy and were used to luxury. Maynard and Lola made no comments indicating it was plain but rather peered at her pictures and posters.
It didn't take them long to settle on the bed and get comfy. Usually when the twins came, Kagome was the one with a barrage of questions. Instead it was them that were curious. At first Kagome didn't know what to say but then she enjoyed the attention and started yapping away.
Inuyasha was mopping around the Forrest. He was adding all the things he didn't like about Kagome on a long list. 'She's noisy, Can't keep quiet, always gets into trouble, doesn't know when to quit, bossy, and she smells funny!' So why then did he miss her so much at that moment? He sat down under a great tree. He considered going back to the well, but then he would be just as bored there as he was here. He made up his mind. He was going to check if the little get-together was over.

"It was crazy! At first I thought I was definitely going to die. Kaput, bye-bye, pushing up daisy and the whole nine yards. Out of the corner of my eye, I finally see the crack where the earring fell in. There were some swallows that kept flying in and out of it. I grab it with my still bleeding hands and used the crack to pull myself up onto the ledge. If it wasn't for that little bird getting my attention I'm pretty sure I would have fallen to my death then and there." Maynard said. He bit into another rice cake enjoying the look of awe on Kagome's face.
"Yeah, and if it weren't for that "little" bird you wouldn't have gone down that cliff to try and catch it!" Lola giggled.
"Your still mad because you lost the bet," Maynard said with a shrug.
"The bet was to see if you were really an idiot. Der!" Lola gave her brother a "duh!" look.
"Excuse me, but you were the one yelling and screaming like a idiot to get the bird that took your earring." He turned to Kagome, " I swear, you try and be a nice guy and what do you get? A one way ticket over a cliff. Sisters, sheesh!"
Inuyasha looked confused. He came at the last part of the story. It didn't matter to him; stupid humans were always trying to get them selves killed. The "twins" looked nothing alike, and had rather odd appearances. In his opinion, that made them dangerous and untrustworthy. That was loosely aimed at Maynard, who kept making eyes at Kagome. Cousin or no cousin, that guy was worse then Miroku he thought.
"Oh that reminds me!" Maynard exclaimed. "I got this while we were at the Grand Canyon." He pulled out a silvery necklace with turquoise turtles and white opal birds. Kagome thought it was an odd necklace, and quite heavy too. She smiled sweetly as not to hurt his feelings. Lola wasn't going to be out done by her brother.
"Kagome, I brought you this too," she dug through her purse hastily and held up an autographed picture of Brad Pitt. Lola smiled smugly at her brother. It would have been more effective if Kagome knew who the American actor was. She bowed and thanked Lola. Well, the guy was certainly hot, that was sure.
Inuyasha watched as the twins kept trying to out do each other with gifts. In a span of ten minutes, Kagome acquired a signed guitar pick, Nail polish, nose ring, Marde Gras necklace, Skateboard pins, CDs, laser pointer, rabbits foot, a button, American cash, someone's- friend's- Mother's- of famous person's- son's dog collar and a book of matches with Kelly's phone number written in it. Kagome sweatdropped when Maynard offered his Misfits T-shirt. A small growl came from out side. The twins were too busy squabbling to hear Inuyasha's warning. Kagome glared at him and made a "shoo!" gesture. The sudden movement caught both teens' attention.
"Why is your friend outside in that tree Kagome?" Maynard asked.
"Huh? Oh... um... well I kinda forgot to tell him I was going to have guests over," Kagome said hastily.
"Tell your boyfriend to come in! We don't bite," and before Kagome could change her cousin's mind, Lola was up in record speed and pulling the Hanyou in. "but he does..." Kagome said under her breath.
Inuyasha didn't know what to say, so opted to just growl. This made Lola and Maynard laugh. Kagome was near panicking when it came to her attention that the twins said nothing about Inuyasha's ears. Could it be that they didn't notice them?
"Those are wicked kewl ears, dude! Are they props or are they surgically attached?" Maynard said in merriment.
Guess not.
Before Inuyasha said any thing Kagome said, "He's an actor!" That made sense to the twins and they never questioned it. After all, they did live in Hollywood, the capital of make believe. Inuyasha was about to protest when Kagome put a finger on his lips. This sent shock waves through his body. They both blushed and gave each other death glares.
"So does your actor slash boy friend have a name?" Maynard asked still smiling.
"It's Inu- " Before he could say it, Kagome finished, "His name is Spike... Err... Inuyasha is his stage name." Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, questioning if the girl went nuts.
This was so unexpected. Kagome was near freaking out when her mother called them to come down. She let the pent up anxiety out in a big "Whew!" Lola lean over and whispered into her ear, "Gee, Kagome, you sure know how to pick 'em, he's gorgeous!" Of course Inuyasha's super sensitive ears heard this. He suddenly felt hot under the collar. "I'll be down in a few minutes, go on a head," Kagome said sweetly.
Maynard gave a knowing wink to Inuyasha. "Don't keep her long, Spike, we still have a lot of catching up to do." They proceeded down the stairs.
Once the door was closed, Inuyasha was in her face. "ACTOR, WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? AND WHAT KIND OF NAME IS SPIKE? AND THAT NONSENSE ABOUT ME BEING YOUR BOYFRIEND? WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!"
Kagome inhaled deeply before replying in a rather restrained voice. "This wouldn't have happen if you just gone back! What were you thinking sitting in that tree being nosey and growling at my guests!"
Inuyasha's faces redden with anger and kind of lean in close to glower at the girl. "I was NOT being nosey!"
Kagome stood straighter, making the space between their faces smaller. "Yes you were. Then you growled at Maynard!"
"I did no such thing!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"...Did not!"
"DID TOO!!!!"
"Ah hah! You admitted it."
"Damn it Kagome! Why do you have to be such a bitch!"
"Because your a total ass hole!"
"Well I wouldn't have growled if you didn't encourage his stripping!"
"Your just jealous! Or is it that you felt threaten because you so immature?"
"No way that runt could... Hey! Isn't he supposed to be your cousin!"
"Not by blood or marriage! My mother and there mother act like sisters! That's why I call them my cousins! And why should you care! IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!!"
The arguing kept going on for several more minutes. No one heard the bickering from below. Kagome's mother on the other hand was getting impatient and sent Sota to go check on them...
The shouting match got more intense and now they were mere inches from yelling into each other's faces. Inuyasha placed his hands on the door just above Kagome's head, unintentionally pinning her in place. They were about to start yelling again when suddenly the door open. Kagome lurched forward and before Inuyasha could blink he caught her in his arms. This forced both of them into a rather awkward kiss.
"Heh, I knew it. Come on lovebirds, lunch is ready," Sota giggled.
Kagome suddenly pushed Inuyasha away. "Please leave..." She said and walked out only to pop back a second later with a grave warning. "Mention this to anyone and I will 'S.I.T.' you to death, rip out every silvery strand of your hair and then nail your bald hinny back to that tree. Understood?"
Inuyasha nodded without a peep. He was too stunned to fully understand her. He climbed out the room in a trance feeling strangely... elated. If it were in his nature he would have cart wheeled right then and there. Probably even started skipping to boot. The walk to the enshrined well unfortunately cleared his irrational thinking.
"Stupid girl..." He said angrily. He rubbed the kiss off his face gruffly. "Stupid stupid stupid girl." He blinked in surprise when he could still taste her on his lips. "Argh, who am I kidding." That was the last thing he said before jumping back to his time.
Kagome returned to her room after ten feeling a little sad. The evening went smoothly except for a few times when she had to make up an excuse for Inuyasha's sudden disappearance and to keep Sota from spilling the beans. Sota kept giggling evilly and Kagome had to bop him on the head several times to shut him up. It didn't help with the twins hinting for her to call on her Actor friend to come back. Other then that, their time together was very pleasant.
As for now, Kagome flopped onto her bed confused and tired from the day's events. She looked up at the ceiling and sighed. "That stupid idiot, look what you did now." She picked up Buyo and let his purr distract her mind from the sudden ache in her heart. "Idiot Inuyasha..."
The end...
Or maybe not. You know the drill. Review.
