Chapter two- Adventures in the village

Author's notes: I think they should have a category for cuteness so instead of this being a romance/ humor fic it would be romance/ cuteness fic!! Don't you think, come on I know you all agree with me!

Kagome finally made it to the hut of Kaede. Kagome had ended up carrying the small child as he snuggled up against Kagome and sucked his thumb lovingly.

Kaede met them at the doorway and looked at Inu-yasha in her arms, she coked an eyebrow and started grinning in an un-Kaede like manner. She started nudge Kagome in the side and wink at her constantly. Kagome was getting a little confused.

"Kagome, you dog you!" Kaede laughed at the horrified face Kagome was sporting. She would have dropped Inu-yasha if he hadn't had a death grip on her shirt.

"What!?!?!" she screamed awakening the small hanyou who, in turn, started to cry adding to the noise, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING KAEDE-BABA!"

The old woman smiled like a moron and winked yet again, "Kagome, you did a good job of hiding that belly of yours, how did Inu-yasha take the fact he was a father?"

Kagome's eyes nearly fell out of her sockets and she sweat dropped in numerous places, "."

Kaede made some tutting noises with her tongue and brought Kagome inside, "Lady Kagome you'd think that you of all people would tell me of all people instead of hiding your pregnancy."

"Kaede use your brain, see this child, he's three!"

"Ah, so when ye were on top of each other after the battle with Yura you really were doing something!" Kaede smiled like she'd just won the lottery, not that she knew what that was.

"What? Kaede, I did not do---That with Inu-yasha, get your mind out of the gutter!"

"Gutter.what is this gutter of which you speak?" Kaede asked.

Serious sweat dropping on Kagome's part, "Kaede-baba, this isn't my or Inu-yasha's child, this IS Inu-yasha, look at him, the ears, hair, the claws, THE EYES for crying out loud!"

"Where is the child?" Kaede asked. The two women suddenly dawned into realization; they both went scrambling around looking for the young child who was known as Inu-yasha.

Screams from beyond the walls of the hut made Kagome dash out the door and Kaede wobble along as any old woman would. Inu-yasha sat on a roof swinging his feet back and forth and throwing rocks at villagers.

Kagome sighed deeply glad that the little guy was okay and then snapped out of it marching up to the hanyou and scowling as he chucked an extremely large rock at Miroku who'd just arrive with Shippou and Sango moments before.

"Inu-yasha! Get down here, NOW!" Kagome stamped her foot and the little hanyou looked at her with big golden eyes that were tearing up.

".?" The little hanyou stood up and started to climb back down, still with the big teary eyes.

"That face isn't going to work with me young man!" Kagome said marching straight ahead into 'mother mode' as Mrs. Higurashi would call it.

The hanyou soon stood before her, he looked at his feet and the ground as if something was on the ground and was the most fascinating thing he'd ever seen in his life. He mumbled something inaudible.

"Inu-yasha," Kagome warned the hanyou with the tone in her voice that she wasn't going to let him off easy.

"Sowwie Kagome-San," he whimpered as he fiddled with his clawed fingers and a little thread in his kimono that had strung loose from the design.

That's when Shippou decided that he liked Inu-yasha as a three year old and tackled him from the behind, squealing with laughter.

Inu-yasha wasn't expecting that so he quickly turned and started to giggle rolling around with the kitsune.

Kagome forgot about punishment and leaned against the hut to watch the little kids play together. She was happy for Shippou; he actually had someone his age to play with.

"Kagome-Chan, did you find anything?" Sango asked as she came to stand beside her, watching Kirara play with the kids.

"No, I never asked her, she thought Inu-yasha was my son," Kagome shrugged as if this was ridiculous, but deep down Kagome wouldn't mind baring Inu-yasha's pup.

"Kagome-Chan, it does look like he's yours with the way you were holding and scolding him. And, he looks like Inu-yasha, so it's easy to assume that Inu-yasha is your son."

Miroku decided at that time that it was time to crack up and clutch his stomach. Major Miroku bashing and sweat droppings accur.

Inu-yasha, Shippou, and Kirara watched as an elder was beaten to a bloody pulp. Kirara and Shippou watched with mild interest, having seen this happen many times before.

Inu-yasha, however, was watching as if his life depended on it. He started to grin evilly as Miroku got multiple bumps on his head.

Kagome noticed this and ran to him and picked him up, blocking his view, "If you see that stuff at an early age you'll turn out like that when you're older!"
