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 18h one, so please go easy, my facts may be wrong. So, the facts about Inu is out and now the gang is even more determined to have their futures. Unfortunately, Miyamoto may no give up. In this chapter, we'll find out a few things about Inu.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or the characters! But I do own Inu! YEAH! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~* Chapter 15

The next morning Kagome woke up the sound of a yelp and a slapping noise. She opened her eyes a little and saw Inuyasha sleeping at her side, his head leaning on her shoulder and Inu sleeping in her lap. She turned her attention toward a fuming Sango and Miroku, who was sitting in a corner of the room rubbing his cheek. He grinned innocently at Sango. "Was that really necessary?" he asked. She narrowed her eyes at him.

"Touch me again and we'll see what's necessary or not." She informed. Sango nodded over toward Kagome. "And be quiet before you wake them." She ordered. Kagome closed her eyes. "They look pretty peacefully don't they?" Miroku let out a chuckle.

"They are family." Said Miroku. There was a silence and Kagome opened her eyes. "You think there's a chance for us?" he asked. Sango's face went pink.

"What makes you think that?" Kagome's head snapped up and Inuyasha was watching Miroku and Sango with a tired expression. Miroku and Sango both looked at Inuyasha and Sango quickly got up, her face going red.

"Listen up, Inuyasha! There is NOTHING going on here between Miroku and."

"Calm down." ordered Inuyasha, narrowing his eyes at her. "I know exactly what you're going to say and its too early to listen to your ranting." He muttered. He stretched a bit and looked out a window. "Let's get started, alright." He ordered. "We've go a mission." He informed. Kagome watched him walk out and let out a sigh. Miroku and Shippo followed Inuyasha.

Stupid Houshi." Muttered Sango, closing the room door so that she and Kagome could change. Kagome laid Inu down and covered him up.

"Really Sango, you shouldn't get mad at him. You should already know that's his way to say he likes you." Said Kagome. Sango looked at her quickly as Kagome pulled out a shirt and skirt from her bag.

"You really think so?" she asked quietly and Kagome grinned, nodding her head eagerly.

"Miroku is a bit of a. lecher, but he DOES like you." Kagome informed. Sango turned away and began muttering something to herself as she pulled on a fresh kimono. Kagome smiled a bit as she pulled her shirt on.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As they sat around a table eating breakfast, Miroku took the chance to ask Inu a question. "So Inu, I take it you've met Kikyo once before." He said. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at the monk and noticed everyone seemed pretty curious on why Miroku had brought something like that up. Inu looked up from his food and nodded.

"Yeah. she didn't like me too much." Answered he boy with a sort of scowl. Kaede frowned a bit. "Kikyo has never had anything against children. Why wouldn't she have liked you?" she asked. Inu looked up at the old woman.

"She obviously had something against me since she tried to kill me with an arrow when I was three years old. It was lucky my mom grabbed me just in time." The boy informed.

"Did she know you were Inuyasha and Kagome's son?" asked Sango curiously. Inuyasha could feel his face getting hot when Sango had said this and so did Kagome's. Inu shook his head.

"No, but I think she thought I was my dad cuz I was in my other form. My mom had told me not to go wandering in the forest, but I did anyway and that crazy bit-" he stopped and smiled sheepishly at Kagome. "Well she tried to kill me." He finished.

"Well that figures. Kikyo is still a bit on the insane side." Said Miroku, sipping his ea. Kaede shook her head, she obviously still couldn't believe her sister would try and kill a child.

"My mom and my aunt- Well Sango anyway, say that Kikyo is just a crazy bitch who suffering from never ending PMS." Informed Inu innocently. They all began choking and Inuyasha noticed both Sango and Kagome were red. "I dunno what PMS is, but it must have to do with having bad attitudes." Said Inu thoughtfully. Miroku grinned.

"It's a female thing, Kid. Now why don't you tell me what your family is like." Said the monk brightly. "You know, since when you leave we won't remember a thing." Inu nodded.

"Well my mom had me when she was young so she's still pretty young. She and my dad guard the village cuz granny Kaede is too old. Shippo lives with Kaede and helps her out a lot, but comes to our house and plays with me a lot. Sango lives in the village and so does Miroku and." Inu grinned. "Kouga marries some wolf demon girl." He piped. Kouga had left earlier that morning, which was one reason there was no morning argument between him and Inuyasha. Inuyasha smirked.

"So, are you an only child?" asked Kagome. Inuyasha looked at her in shock and she grinned up at him innocently, her cheeks slightly red.

"Yeah, but probably cuz I'm so young." Answered Inu. "I dunno if my mom and dad are gonna have another kid." He answered. Kagome nodded and Inuyasha took his turn.

"So, we all live in the village together, just like that?" he asked. "Why couldn't anyone have protected us like we did them?" he asked.

"We don' live IN the village. We live outside it. Demons would have to pass us before getting here. We live at the edge of the forest." He answered. "Probably cuz you like to sit up and trees. We have a small house and it's near a lake and there's a HUGE tree that you always sit in. Sometime you'll bring me up and I'll sleep in your lap while mom does laundry or goes to the village. We basically live a nice life.. Not counting that we have to guard the Shikon Jewel."

'Inuyasha never uses it?" asked Kaede suddenly. Inu looked at her and shook his head.

"No, I dunno why, bit I guess its because he can protect us better in his original form than if he were to be human." Answered Inu thoughtfully. Inuyasha crossed his arms and began to think about things. Basically, he and Kagome DO get together, somehow, and they do get all the jewel shards and finish the jewel. but he never used it? All of his hard wok and fighting and he decides to stay a half breed and keep this human girl as his mate, have a pup and even guard a village full of humans. From what Inu has said, it makes it sound as if he's gone soft.

"So, what's the deal with Sesshomaru?" asked Shippo curiously. "He still have a thing against Inuyasha?" he asked, him eyes shinning.

"Yeah! He's really strange too. He keeps trying to still the Tetusuaiga from my dad and he even kidnapped me once!" piped Inu. Inuyasha looked at the boy in complete shook. "My dad beat him real good though! I guess Uncle Sesshomaru though my dad was weakened by the family life." Miroku then grinned.

"Man I can't wait 'til your birth. Life seems to get a little more exciting with the son of Kagome and Inuyasha in the picture."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Inuyasha walked ahead of the group silently. They had been walking for an hour now and he hadn't said a thing. Kagome was personally beginning to worry about him. "He's probably still trying to get over the shock of every thing Inu has told us." Said Miroku. Kagome looked at him curiously.

"You think he's upset about it? You know, the things that Inu said about Kikyo and all?" he asked. Miroku smiled a bit.

"He would have snapped at the kid in the beginning if he was upset, you know how open Inuyasha is with his anger." The monk reminded. Kagome nodded.

"We should try to get to a good place and set up camp before nightfall you know." Said Sango, trying to break the tension. "What do you say, Inuyasha!" she called.

"Feh." He responded and continued o walk ahead of them. When he came to a sudden halt, everyone else did as well. "Did you hear that?" he asked.

"Hear what?" asked Kagome nervously. Miroku came up to the half demon's side. Kagome knew that it was a good thing that Inuyasha could hear so well, but she hated when he heard things she couldn't even hear or see!

"It's a girl!" informed Inuyasha and pulled Tetusuaiga out just as a girl came stumbling out of the forest, soon followed by a demon. She screamed and ran into Miroku's arms, burying her face into his chest as Inuyasha took care of he demon chasing her. When he had finished, the girl looked at them all gratefully before fainting into Miroku's arms.
