Summer Days
Author's Note: This is my first Inuyasha fic so I may get a few facts wrong since I've just started watching this show from the second episode and so far I'm up to the 13th one, so please go easy. So anyway, it's nearly summer and Inuyasha and Shippo are tired of being left behind while Kagome goes back to her time to do what ever it is she needs to do. So they have plans to make their summer fun, though Inuyasha takes matters into his own hands. Thing is, a few things unexpected happen and the summer seems to get a little. complicated.

A young man sat up in a tree with his arms crossed and an annoyed look on his face. His long silvery blue hair blew in the gentle wind and the dog like ears on the top of his head could catch every word being said by his friends down on the ground. One of his friends, Miroku, looked up at him and grinned. "Hey, Inuyasha, why don't you come down here and join us!" he called, holding up a slice of watermelon. Inuyasha turned his head to the side in refusal.
"I'd rather not." He informed grumpily. The female that was along with them giggled.
"He's just grumpy because Kagome isn't here." She whispered, though with the keen ears Inuyasha had, he heard her every word. He turned his head sharply and glared at her.
"What makes you think something as stupid as that?!" he snapped. She rolled her eyes and took a bite out of her slice of watermelon. Once she finished, she looked up at the half demon up in the tree.
"Kagome has been gone for three weeks now. I know you have to miss her since you're refusing such great watermelon. Shippo sure does. He even refused it and is sulking over at the well as we speak." Inuyasha's face reddened a bit at the fact that Sango actually knew he missed Kagome.
"If you ask me, you should go to Kagome's time and visit her." Said Miroku thoughtfully. Inuyasha turned his head to look at the monk. "After all, it's not like you've never been there before."
"He can't go there! He almost got her in trouble the last time!" informed Sango sternly. "He causes to much damage and is too careless of things." Inuyasha just rolled his eyes and stood up.
"Well I prefer Miroku's idea better." He informed and stood up. He stretched a bit before looking down at his two team mates and smirking. "I'll be seeing you in a few weeks, and don't come looking for me." He said and ran off before either of them could object. Either way, everyone was happy. Miroku could be alone with Sango, he could see Kagome again. and so could Shippo. Then maybe summer wouldn't be as boring. When he reached the well, the little fox demon was sitting in front of the well sulking with Myoga the flea on his shoulder.
"Kagome. where are you?" he muttered.
"I believe she calls it school." Shippo jumped and faced Inuyasha.
"DON'T DO THAT!" he yelled. Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"C'mon, where going to go see Kagome. Spend a little vacation wit her and all that." Shippo's eyes lit up.
"Do you think that's wise, Master Inuyasha. After all, last time we were there. you almost got yourself blown up." Said Myoga. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at the flea.
"You can stay you know." He informed.
"Oh no! I'll come!"
"Right. So lets go." Inuyasha ordered and Shippo jumped onto his shoulder and held on tightly until they arrived on the other side. When they got out the well, Shippo looked around excitedly.
"So, where's Kagome at? Can you find her?" the little demon asked excitedly. Inuyasha looked around a bit and smirked, sniffing the air a bit.
"Found her." He said and Shippo jumped onto his shoulder right on time because Inuyasha ran in the direction that he sensed Kagome at top speed. He jumped up into a tree over a building where a bunch of young humans exiting. A small smiled touched Inuyasha's lips when he spotted Kagome. Shippo jumped off his shoulder and began bouncing up and down excitedly.
"Look! Is that what school is?" he asked and Inuyasha shrugged.
"I guess so." Three girls suddenly came running up to Kagome, making her stop.
"Hey guys."
"Hey! Listen, we have the greatest information that you may ever hear!" announced the first girl excitedly. Kagome forced a smile.
"Yeah, what's that?"
"You know, Houjo? Well I heard that he might be asking you out."
"Before summer break?"
"That's the best time."
"No school to get in the way." Kagome laughed and shook her head.
"I doubt he's my type." She informed. The blonde girl narrowed her eyes at the girl and both Inuyasha and Shippo leaned forward in great curiosity.
"Then what's you type, Kagome?" the blonde asked. Kagome blushed a bit.
"Well he'd have to be tall, strong and brave." She answered.
"Houjo is tall!" announced the first girl with short hair.
"But is he brave?" asked the second, brushing her brown hair out of her eyes. "Kagome wants a guy that can protect her and look great while he does it. Probably the guy you've been cutting school to be with."
"That's right. Not all your grandfather's stories are believable." Kagome laughed. She was about to say something when a boy came up.
"Hi Jane. Mai. April. Kagome."
"Hi Houjo." Answered all the girls. He smiled and turned to Kagome.
"Kagome, I wondering if maybe we could study together tonight." He said. Kagome's friends stared in complete shook. Inuyasha could hear one of them whisper that she was going to get a new boyfriend. That caused him to frown.
"Tonight. I don't know." She said. The boy smiled nervously.
"Its really no trouble you know. I won't be too much trouble. Here, I'll carry your books."
"So that's what you've been doing wrong." Said Shippo suddenly. He was looking at Inuyasha with a serious expression.
"What are you talking about?"
"If you want Kagome to be your mate, you have to things the way that boy is doing it." he informed.
"Keh. Kagome doesn't fall for that bull. She likes guys the way I am." The half demon informed. He stood up straight and looked down at the group below them. "You stay here. You'll bring too much attention to yourself."
"Me? You're the one with the dog ears!" informed Shippo in annoyance, but Inuyasha had already jumped out of the tree and was walking up behind Kagome. He reached over and pulled the books out of Houjo's hands.
"I think I'll carry these for her, thanks." Mai, Jane and April both stared at Inuyasha with bright eyes.
"Inuyasha! What are you doing here. at my school?" asked Kagome nervously. "Where are Shippo, Sango, and Miroku?"
"Shippo somewhere safe and Sango and Miroku are back home." Answered Inuyasha, ignoring the stares from Kagome's friends. "That's about where we'll be going." Before Kagome had a chance to object, he picked her up and slung half of her body over his shoulder and ran off, jumping into the tree without Kagome's four classmates noticing.
"What do you think you're doing!" Kagome yelled once they arrived up in the tree where Shippo happily hugged her. "You can't just come around unannounced and expect people not to stare."
"That's why I made Shippo stay in the tree."
"Either way, Inuyasha, you aren't too normal looking yourself." Kagome pointed out. "You're outfit is from a completely different time and you have silvery blue hair AND dog ears at the top of your head." Inuyasha frowned a bit. He thought Kagome would have been a little bit happier to see him. He frowned a crossed his arms.
"Well I'm sorry for saving you from being stalked down by lover boy down there," He nodded toward the group down on the ground that were looking around anxiously. "But it was for all of us." Kagome looked at him in confusion.
"For all of us? What does me studying with a classmate have to do with you, Shippo, Sango, or Miroku?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha just shook his head.
"That's not the point. Now then, let's go home, eh?" he suggested turning so that she could climb onto his back. Kagome sighed and climbed onto his back.
"You know my mom won't really be expecting you, right?" Kagome asked as they made their way home, Inuyasha jumping from building to building. Inuyasha shrugged. "And we could have taken the bus too."
"I don't like crowded spaces." The half demon informed. Actually, he just wanted to travel this way because that would mean that Kagome would be close to him. She sometimes had the tendency to wrap her arms around his neck and press her body closely to his, which he never really protested to. When they got to the temple, they went back to the well. Kagome sighed and both Shippo and Inuyasha sat on the well and watched her.
"You two stay here, alright. I need to go get things figured out." She said and they nodded. When she was gone, Shippo looked around.
"So, what do you think we'll be having for dinner?" he asked. Inuyasha stretched.
"I dunno, maybe you should ask Sango and Miroku." Shippo looked at him in confusion and Inuyasha conveniently knocked the little demon into the well.
"HEEEEEYYYYY!" Inuyasha looked down into the well and his ears perked as the sound of Shippo's protest suddenly vanished. He smirked triumphantly. Now he had Kagome all to himself, and he was sure Shippo couldn't get back to this side without him.
"Hey, where's Shippo?" asked Kagome. Inuyasha turned and shrugged.
"I guess he'd rather stay home instead of in this scary place." He answered innocently.
"Oh. well come with me, will you. Souta and mom aren't home yet and grandpa is sleep." Inuyasha nodded and followed her into the house. Things were going to be great this summer. He knew it.
