Chapter XII "Fast Food Follies" [that is too corny-_-;]


The warm breeze ruffled the hair of two young people resting aginast the trunk of a cherry blossom tree.
Many passerbyers swooned, while their male counterparts rolled their eyes.
After of few moments, Inuyasha and Kagome relunctantly rose with Shipup and Souta's complaints of hunger.
Pulling the shirt over her head, Kagome surveryed her now almost dry dress and folded the shirt over her arm, at least you couldn't tell it was wet...
Souta jumped up and down begging for fast food, whileShippou scratched his ears, and Inuyasha flexed is clawed hands.
Kagome finally relented, but told Shippou to change into a normal looking kid first.
"Your tail looks like something a kid would wear anyway." she said, trying in vain to convince herself and Inuyasha.
They walked down the block, and ignored the odd stares they received.
Inuyasha clasped Kagome's hand protectivly, and gave every male within twenty feet a death glare.
Kagome walked, head down, looking tired and somewhat amused.
They stopped at a burger place, and went in, Souta happily skipping ahead.
Fishing through her bag, Kagome was glad she had brought the food money her mother had supplied, and took it in her hand.
Souta was already telling the chashier what he wanted, and Shippou looked quite confused, so Kagome ordered the same for him, and got Inuyasha and herself a cheesburger and fries.
Kagome payed the cashier, and leaned against the counter, waiting for their order.
Souta pulled Shippou out to play in one of those ball pits, while Inuyasha watched in curiousity.
As soon as their order was ready, both children pulled themselves from the plastic germ ridden pit, and ran towards the booth.
They quickly sat beside each other, leaving Inuyasha and Kagome to do the same.
Inuyasha didn't mind, but had been menatlly scolding himself for letting his feelings shine through, he was getting too soft.
His thoughts were interupted by Kagome's small hand holding a long yellow object in front of his face.
Kagome stiffled a laugh, Inuyasha was too kawaii, as he crossed his amber eyes to stare at the french fry she had offered him.
"It's a potato, but cut into strips and fried, it's called a french fry" she explained popping one in her mouth, but not befroe dipping it in a red substance that looked suspiciosly like blood.
He dipped his finger into the red substance and smelt it, a blast of spices and tomtatoe met his senses, and he licked it from his claw, then dipped one of the 'fringe fry' in the stuff.
Kagome smiled "That's ketchup, or as my father used to say catsup"
Shippou and the hanyou bit into the fry about the same time, and their eyes got very large as they tasted the wonder of fast food.
The 'catch-up' was a bit strong, and it made Shippou's eyes water.
A look of sheer pleasure went over theri features as they bit into their hamburgers.
Souta just sat and watched happily, then remembered what Kagome had told him and quickly devoured his meal.
When they were almost finished, a small paket of this 'catch-up' met the back of Inuyasha'a head with a dull 'plunk'.
It would have been OK, but the packet had been open, and red smeared some of his blue white locks.
OK, Inuyasha wasn't much like Sesshoumaru, but one thing they both didn't exactly love some wise guy staining their beautiful hair.
Inuyasha turned and glared in the direction the projectile had come from, he could still smell the package
coming from a smug looking teenage boy, draping his arm around a cheap looking blonde girl.
Kagome smiled and waved, a sweat drop developing, "Hi Toma, Kyra, ...hehehe"
The girl rolled her eyes and Toma gave them the finger.
Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and looked to Kagome "What does that mean?" he asked.
She smiled and waved her hands "Oh, um, ......It means Good day!"
Inuyasha just looked away not sure she was telling the truth, Shippou hadn't noticed and Souta's eyes had grown very large as he stared at the boy in shock.
Kagome decided her brother needed to get out more often before deciding they shoudl leave.
They stood and two more packets sailed in their direction, one smearing Shippou, and the other smacking Kagome right in the face.
"Where'ya find that freak Higurashi?" the girl asked leaning forward on her elbows. "Kind cute...."
Kagome flushed and shook her head, grabbing a napkin and heading for the door.
Inuyasha followed and gave them the 'good day' finger, which caused Souta's eyes to again grow large.
Toma scowled and jumped from the booth with an angry "What in the %^## was that?"
Inuyasha sighed and said as if Toma were stupid "The %^#%^ Good day finger baka!"
Toma lunged at the Hanyou, only to be dodged and run nto the wall, he soon regained his composure and started figthing Inuyasha, who was happy some fun was finally comeing out of this day.

Kagome, Kyra, Souta, & Shippou sat silently on a booth, watching the little fight.
Toma had been thrown to the ground at least fifty times, and Inuyasha was starting to look bored, he did only have the attention span of a 17 year old.
Toma got up again, and wiped the crimson flow from his lip and nose and gaspd.
"Y-You're not human...." he stuttered.
Inuyasha raised a brow[*must stop using that!!!!!] and smirked, "Well only half human...."
Kyra rose and drug Toma form the building "Come on, we are gonna miss our movie! See you at school Kagome-chan!"
"Kay!" Kagome waved to her friend, and smiled at Inuyasha who was sucking ketchup from a package.
Souta and Shippou begged off some extra time to play in the ball pit, and everyone was so afraid of Inuyasha, they had it all to themselves.
They watched the boys play for a while before Inuyasha looked at Kagome, with large curious eyes.
"What Inuyasha?" She asked, noticing his questioning glance.
He cursed under his breath for even considering asking the question,....he thought playing in the pit looked fun.....
Kagome spared him the embarresment, when she looked longinly at the pit and clasped his hand.
"Inuyasha...will you jump in with me?" she asked amusment and mischeif once again sparkling in her chocolate eyes.
He just gave a simple "feh!" and let her slowly lead him to the pit.
She clasped his hand and smiled "1.....2....3!...*sigh* Inuyasha that means we jump in..whoa!"
Inuyasha jumped into the pit, pulling Kagome with him, and he found himself, buried neck deep in plastic
balls.
Kagome laughed as she 'swam' towards him and settled beside him.
He looked at her and sighed, when he let himself become soft, she was happier...could that mean she acutally...no, noway.....

Sango stepped into Kaede's hut, and went to the corner, taking the towel from her head as Kagome had taught her, and rubbing her damp tangles.
Miroku, oddly enough, had actually been here when she returned, either he was getting really good at running back, or he hadn't been spying on her today.......yeah....sure....-_-;
She sat down before the fire pit and stroked a purring Kirara silently.
Miroku g;lanced at the girl and tried not to stare, Her hair hung around her face, and her dark eyes reflected the image of the ever hungry flames. [hmm kinda poetic there.....^_^]
He might not have openly said it, but ever since he had met the girl, there was something very different about her.
He didn't want to be as perverted around her, though he hid that quite well...
He wanted to respect and protect her,...she had lost so much.
Sango looked up and caught him staring, and as their eyes met, for once, she had pulled down the cold hard barrier, she usually put forth.
This wasn't her usual fighting face, it was her true face.....the loving person she had always been.
The moment was gone before it had happened, and they both looked down, sighing silently, yet heavily.
Kaede entered and shook her head, those two, beleive it or not, were wprse than Kagome and Inuyasha about their feelings.







Erm, OK this one ended up a lil short an odd.
I'm having slight writers block, but I'll make it.
Constructive critics are welcome, and flamers are OK, just please do not be vulgar.
Thanks to everyone, love ya'll

Ja ne,
