Chapter three- nightmares for a hanyou
Disclaimer: don't own Inu-yasha and sadly not the three year old either
~*~ ::Kagome's point of view::
Inu-yasha still grinned evilly hours after I got him away from the village. I figured that when he was older he liked the forest a lot better then the huts that the village provided.
Sango and Miroku had stayed back in the village to prevent the villagers from chasing me because I held the 'rock-throwing demon'. Despite the evil grin Inu-yasha now sported as frequently as he was 'sat' when he was 'older' he still looked fairly innocent, though I couldn't really convince the villagers.
Kirara and Shippou trailed behind me as I held Inu-yasha, preventing him from doing something completely evil. We passed the old well and the god tree and Inu-yasha's eyes grew bigger as he looked down the well.
"Kagome-San, this well smells like you," Inu-yasha said as he poked it. I had set him down because he was squirming way too much for my liking. When he poked it he giggled as a little boy would giggle and I had to refrain from bursting out laughing imagining a grown Inu-yasha giggling.
Shippou and Kirara dozed beside one another as the sun set into the west and I pulled out miniature sleeping bags that were oh-so-helpfully inside my large backpack which Inu-yasha was very interested in.
I sighed deeply, "Kagome-San, why's you sighing?" I looked at the hanyou with the bad langage skills and smile faintly.
"Nothing, Inu-yasha, I just am thinking."
"Whatcha thinkin' 'bout?" he asked innocently. I sighed again, three- year-olds have more curiosity then cats.
"I'm thinking about how I'm going to get a close friend to come back," I say to him, trying to explain what happened to him without really explaining it. I didn't want to worry him, not that he'd really understand.
It's hard to believe but I actually missed him calling me 'wench' or 'bitch', I miss having a reason to 'sit' him. When he's this small I'd feel guilty sitting him. I sigh yet again.
Inu-yasha's little dog-ears flatten, "Kagome-san your sighing is scaring my ears, see, they disappeared."
I giggle as I reach out and pat Inu-yasha's head like he's a dog, which technically he's more of a puppy. He looks up at me with innocent eyes that I simply adore.
I stand up and start to walk over to Shippou with a blanket just his size but I'm stopped by the clawed hand of Inu-yasha.
"What is it Inu-yasha?" Irritation mixed in with my concern. He only looks at me and giggles, I sigh and pull out one of those inflatable mattresses that you take camping sometimes, it was a little small for me so I decided that it would be the perfect size for my three companions.
I lean down and push Inu-yasha slightly out of the way and blow into the air hole, the thing begins to inflate slowly. I start to run out of breath but keep going.
Suddenly Inu-yasha's little head pops up in front of me. I jump in surprise and the little guy sits on my head.
"Inu-yasha I'm kind of busy so do you mind-" But I didn't finish because Inu-yasha hopes off my head and lands on the mattress and goes flying.
"BOUNCY!" He giggles and I curse under my breath before running after him, "It's bouncy Kagome-San."
I run after the airborne midget, trying to keep my eye on him and to not trip over roots and tiny bushes.
Inu-yasha lands gracefully and starts twirling around in circles giggling madly as he dodges my attempts to pick him up, "catch me if you can Kagome-San."
I sigh in irritation and manage to tackle the hanyou, "you're worse then when you're older!"
He just looks at me like I just said the funniest thing in the world and I feel like screaming at him for not being a normal innocent child.
I start to walk back and then I hear whimpering behind me, figuring it's Inu-yasha wanting attention I turn and look at him, eyebrow raised awaiting him to say whatever it is he wants to say.
He crawls up to me like a baby who doesn't know how to walk yet and he tugs on my sock so that it falls down slightly. I sigh in frustration and am about to lean down and pull it up when I see he's already done it for me. He's smoothing out the crinkles in the sock so that it looks perfect, he looks up at me with approval in his eyes.
After the sock is perfect in his eyes he stands up, reaching my knees barely, he looks up with pleading eyes and arms raised towards the sky, his lower lip trembles and he whispers, "Up."
I giggle and pick up the little guy and he smiles innocently at me, "Kagome-San has pwetty haiw," he whispers quietly as he touches my locks of hair, "soft and pretty."
Even if he was just a three year old, that still made me feel good inside, that was the first compliment that he's given me in a long time, the last time I remember a compliment coming from inu-yasha's lips was when he first turned human and said that I smelled nice.
He then yanks my hair and screech in surprise and pain, "Ow, don't do that Inu-yasha!"
He lets go of my hair and sticks his thumb in his mouth, "sowwie Kagome-San."
He yawns softly and snuggles against me, "Me sweepy now Kagome-San, goodynight."
I brush the bangs from his face and whisper in his ear, "Good night," His ears twitch towards me but he doesn't move.
~*~
It had been about two hours after Inu-yasha feel asleep in my arms and he would squirm every so often.
Shippou and Kirara had returned to the village leaving him and me alone, not that I could DO anything with a hanyou who's THREE YEARS OLD!
"Mommy . . . It's cold . . .why are we in cave . . . . . . . . Mommy come back . . .. I've been here for days . . . ." Inu-yasha mumbled as he twisted and turned in his sleep.
I felt my eyes water up, "Inu-yasha?" i asked timidly not wanting to awaken him, I put my hand on his forehead and he seemed to snuggle into it, his body inching farther and farther up as he rested his head in the crock of my neck If only her were older . . . WAIT I DID NOT JUST THINK THAT!
I sat in silence as I rested a hand on his head for the rest of the night, him getting closer and closer to me.
