"The kids," Mrs. Higurashi sighed, "I don't know why they just hate each other so much!"
"Do you think we can trust them?" Her husband asked with a curious look on his eyes.
"Well, they're not little children anymore."
"I think even little children would behave better than those two mixed together!" this got a laugh from his wife.

"That's true, remember our shock when Inu-yasha told Kagome that she was adopted as soon as she could talk?"
"Yeh, we had to ground him for two whole months!" Mr. Higurashi picked up his jacket that was hung on the door and kissed his wife's forehead, patting her on the head. They smiled at each other as he pushed the door, heading outside the house.
"We'll talk about this at night with the kids." He said while waving his hand.
"Sure. Have a safe trip and come back safely!" Mrs. Higurashi picked up the dishes and placed them in the sink while turning on the water tap. She accidentally put it on full blast and all the water sprayed directly at her face, not forgetting to wet her clothes too. "Ahh, this always happens to me!" she grumbled, just as Kagome entered the room.
"Ah, what's wrong?" Kagome asked.
"Oh it's nothing honey! I just have to go and change before I clean the dishes, the water sprayed at me again!"
"Again? You should really be careful with that sink! Here, you go change and I'll clean the dishes for you." Kagome said to her.
"Kagome-chan! It's alright, I can do it myself!" but Kagome was already heading towards the sink, Mrs. Higurashi smiled at the girl and walked out of the kitchen, when she stopped suddenly in the middle of her walk. "Kagome-chan, what happened to your face?"
"You mean you didn't notice before?" Kagome asked, she was surprised yet again at how unattentive to detail Mrs. Higurashi was.
"Nope."
"Inu-yasha."
"I see." Mrs. Higurashi continued to walk towards her bedroom.
"Feh! Always playing the good girl aren't you, KA-GO-ME?" a mocking voice came from behind Kagome's back, smirking slightly at the thought of how angry Kagome must've been. Inu-yasha had never considered the girl as his sister, an annoying enemy for sure, but never would he accept her into the family. As a kid he had even forced her to call their parents, Mr and Mrs. Higurashi instead of mom and dad or he would beat up on her. All this was to make their parents distant from the girl, but the only thing that happened was that they loved her even more.
"What do you mean, jerk?" as a result of him being so mean towards her, Kagome had never considered Inu-yasha as her brother too; people said that adopted siblings were always closer to each other, either because one wanted to make the other feel at home or they were just happy to be living in the same house; none of these were the case with Inu-yasha and Kagome.
"I mean, stop acting like you're some kind of fairy tale goody-goody princess!" Inu-yasha snared at Kagome and jerked his fist in the air.
"For your information, I am not a "fairy-tale-goody-goody-princes". God knows that if I were a princess I would've cast you out of the family. And by the way, if you want to fight with me, bring it on!" Kagome had a black belt in all the martial arts, she had to learn it as a self defense mechanism against Inu-yasha. She could beat him up ever since she was 10 years old, but lately, he had gotten really strong.
"You're too easy to fight, you're boring. . .I need a real challenge." Inu- yasha faked a yawn and stretched his arms a little, causing Kagome to burn in fury.
"I hate you so much!" If there was one thing she hated, it was to be annoyed in the morning. She quickly wiped up the dishes and placed them in the rack, nearly cracking them in half.
"I hate you too, so now we're even." Inu-yasha challenged her into a word fight.
"I'm too lazy for this, I'm going to wash my face to get all of this stupid stuff you drew on it off! Idiot." Kagome mumbled and ran over to the bathroom.
Inside the whole huge house, there is only one bathroom, Kagome thought, so if I stay in there long enough, sooner or later Inu-yasha will have to do his thing, but he can't get inside!
Kagome giggled at the thought and skipped the rest of the way, Inu-yasha looked at her quizzically. She pushed the door of the bathroom closed and locked it, not forgetting to double bolt it too. She wanted it to be extra hard for Inu-yasha to ever get in.
Kagome looked at all of the accessories on the table of the bathroom, face wash, body scrub, everything was there. She didn't really need all of the stuff except on a few occasional events. Like today, when Inu-yasha thought that drawing on people's faces was extremely funny for some reason.
"Let's see, what was last time's recipe?" Kagome asked herself, picking up a few bottles. "If I mix this with this and this with this. . ." Kagome waited for a reaction from the soaps.
For a while they did nothing, but suddenly the color started to shift and all of them started to blend in together.
"There! The perfect recipe to get out pen marks from your face!" Kagome said ecstatically while wiping the substance on her face. A knock came on the door, disturbing her fun.
"Who is it?" she asked through a muffled voice.
"Mom."
Kagome thought for a while and tried to recognize the voice, somehow, it didn't seem like her mother's at all, it was high-pitched, strange for some reason. Like it was all a disguise. Then something clicked in her head. It was Inu-yasha! Of course it was Inu-yasha! He'd done this trick a million times but she was not going to be fooled this moment!
"Inu-yasha, I know it's you."
"Aww, crap." Inu-yasha groaned.
Kagome splashed water on her face, the pen marks were all gone now, she hummed a song to herself while filling in the bathtub with water. She wanted to take a bath.
"One, Two, Three!" came a voice from the other side of the door, with a slight cracking noise.
It fell down, breaking in half, and Inu-yasha's figure came inside the room, ready to throw Kagome out.
"Well, well! Seems like the little princess wants to take herself a bath, right?" Inu-yasha asked her in a tone that annoyed Kagome to death.
"Jerk! Now I can't take a bath of the door's like this!" Kagome screamed out in frustration, throwing her hands up in the air.
Inu-yasha smiled, he had defeated Kagome today, it was so amusing to see her incredibly angry, that way, he knew what got on her nerves. Some said that getting into fights with each other was a form of affection; they were wrong, very, very wrong.
Kagome looked at the pendulum clock in the middle of the living room and her eyes widened in shock. Her friends were about to pick her up today only five minutes from now! She ran upstairs towards her room, changing as quickly as possible, grabbing anything that was inside the closet. Unfortunately for her, it was a mismatched pair of socks and a weird sunflower dress that she hadn't worn in two years.
"Bah! Who cares? I'm late already!" Kagome said while pulling on her socks, jumping on one leg. But luck wasn't going her way today, she tumbled down the stairs, spraining her ankle instantly.
"Kagome?" came a voice from beside her.
"Mom?"
"Are you OK? What happened?" Mrs. Higurashi asked Kagome frantically, she was always scared about her clumsiness sometimes, it would get her into accidents!
"Nothing mom! I'm OK! See!" Kagome winced as she stood on both feet and jumped around the living room. She hated to see Mrs. Higurashi so worried over her, it broke her heart.
"OK then."
A loud honking was heard from outside the house, it was obviously her friend's car.
"KAGOME! WE'RE HERE!" cried out her friends all at once.
"I KNOW YOU ARE! STOP BEING SO LOUD! THE COPS CAN COME HERE AND THEY'LL WONDER WHAT HAPPENED!"
Everyone sweat-dropped.
"I'm going!" Kagome waved good-bye to her mother, limping slightly on her bad leg. She hopped down towards the pavement and hopped into the car.
"What's wrong, my dear Kagome?" Kouga asked.
"Sprained my ankle."
"Oh, are you alright, maybe I could carry you?" asked Mirokku, a slight glint could be seen in his eyes while he was winking at her.
"Stop it you perv!" Sango threw her bag at Miroku as he rubbed his head in pain.
"That is the 100th hit you have given him. Congratulations." Sesshoumaru said in a dead tone. Silence.
Kagome's friends were all either one or two years older than her, which meant that she was in the same class as Inu-yasha. As a kid she had been really smart, winning the spelling bees, getting A's in school, then suddenly, her teachers decided to make her skip a grade, and she had ended up in Inu-yasha's class. Inu-yasha, on the other hand, had been dropped one, all his grades were either failing or near failing, even though his parents had forced him to take extra curricular lessons.
-_-_-_-_-
Inu-yasha secretly watched Kagome go away with all her friends, ever since the holidays had started, they had visited her everyday, as they had promised. Even those idiotic looking Sesshoumaru and Kouga guys. For them to be doing that to someone, they must've been really close.
"Feh." Inu-yasha said to himself. "I don't want anybody to be that close to me, it's sick!" he walked back to the living room, recounting what had happened last year.
[{flashback}]
"I'm telling you Inu-yasha! If you ever, ever, bother Kagome-chan and make her cry like that again, I'll break your bones for sure!" A fifteen year old Sango said to him as she punched Inu-yasha in the face. A bruise instantly formed on his face.
"B*tch!"
"Who are you calling b*tch?" Kouga's voice approached him as he kicked Inu- yasha in the back.
"Don't you dare do anything to her again! Do you understand me?" Sango held him by the neck, nearly choking him.
"Y-yes."
"We can't hear you." Sesshoumaru held a club in his hands, ready to beat Inu-yasha if he turned violent against them.
"YES!" Inu-yasha screamed out in pain of Sango's grasp.
He jumped into a defensive position.
"I'm afraid that we're done with you now, Inu-yasha, good-bye." Miroku gathered the group, clicking his fingers together, and they left as quickly as they came.
Kagome had never known what they had done for her.
[{end of flashback}]
"Yeh, her stupid friends allright." Inu-yasha rolled his eyes and sat down on the couch, lifting his feet up to rest them on the table. He couldn't help but be a little envious of Kagome, people were attracted to her, her personality, her smile; that's how she had gotten so many loyal friends in the first place. But nobody wanted to get close to Inu-yasha. Of course there was the minority, some stupid girls and their worshipping fan club, an idiotic guidance counselor that tried to open his shell, a transfer student that was nice to everyone. He didn't need people, not at all, that's what he told them, and suddenly the matter died down, and he was disregarded entirely.
-_-_-_-_-
"Oi, Kagome, did that idiotic Inu-yasha pick on you again?" asked Sango.
"Yep, drew something on my face."
"Bastard, he's going to pay for what he did!"
"Calm down Sango-chan! It's nothing."
"Umm, Kagome, me and the others discussed something last night."
"What is it?"
"It's a bet, Kagome."
"Heh? A bet?" she was surprised, her friends didn't usually make bets.
"Well, it's this. . ." Sango whispered something in Kagome's ears, causing her eyes to gape wide open.
"But, that's mean!" Kagome whined.
"Well, it serves him right though!"
"And we bet you can't do it." Miroku said as a matter of factly, he knew what she hated, she never liked to back down a challenge.
"Well, you're on!" Kagome announced. "What are we betting on?"
"My car." Sango said.
"Your car?! Are you crazy?" Kagome had always loved Sango's car.
"Nope, and if you win, I'll give you it. If you lose, no penalty to you or me, we just go on to our daily lives."
"And how long do I have to do this bet?"
"As long as the summer lasts. That's a long time, for your information."
"Do you promise?" Kagome asked.
"Yes. We're going to shake on it."
The two girls shook a firm hand shake with each other.
"It's a done deal then!" Kagome cried out.
"That idiot will never know what hit him. . ." a malicious smile began to play on Kouga's lips.
-_-_-_-_-
[{at night}]
Mr. Higurashi rung the doorbell to the house, he could hear his wife's loud footsteps rushing towards the door.
"Tadaima!"
"Okaeri!"
He put his briefcase in the house and took of his coat, hanging it on the coat-hanger.
"Well, let's tell them about it."
The two gathered Kagome and Inu-yasha into the living room, a serious look on their faces. Something incredibly important was about to happen, Mr and Mrs Higurashi were never serious, especially at the same time.
"Kids, we're going to be taking a holiday." Mr. Higurashi said.
"You tell us to come down here for THAT?" Inu-yasha asked in surprise.
"Shh, listen to me first!" his father commanded.
"When I say we, I don't mean US, I mean, me and your mother." Mr. Higurashi said while pointing towards his wife, never lifting his strict glaze on Inu- yasha.
"So what happens to us?" Kagome asked.
"You are going to stay here." Mr. Higurashi's expression immediately softened towards Kagome, causing Inu-yasha to grunt a little.
"You mean? ME, WITH HER? FOR HOW LONG?" Inu-yasha, by this time, was going crazy.
"For the whole summer vacation, and, a little more."
"How long, is a little more?" Kagome asked.
"Umm, until the end of the year."
"That means, until December???" Kagome nearly fainted from the news. She might've survived being with Inu-yasha for a week alone in the house without becoming a vegetable, but a whole six months, that was going to be way to hard.
"You'll be fine together! I'm trusting you!"
"BUT I DON'T TRUST THAT STUPID IDIOT!" Kagome and Inu-yasha pointed at each other, saying the sentence at the same time.
"Oh," Mrs. Higurashi exclaimed as she checked her watch. "We have to get going now."
"NOW???"
"yes, well, we're trusting you, bye!" Mr. Higurashi grabbed his wife's arm and rushed over towards the door, jumping into their car and speeding off way over the speed limit towards the airport.
Silence.
The door wasn't closed.
The wind was blowing in, causing it to creek.
Inu-yasha and Kagome were still google-eyed.
Suddenly. . .
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" they both screamed, running around the house, banging into walls, hoping that it was all some sort of bad dream.
From way afar, the sirens of police cars could be heard, wondering what was happening on the house on top of the hill.
