A/N: Time for Dev again! ^_^

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The weekend came quickly for the shard hunters. The gang was tired, but happy. They had collected two more shards and were now returning back to the village.

"Kagome, what's today?" InuYasha asked.

"It's Friday. Today we go and pick Dev up for our weekend visit. Then he stays till Sunday night. We get two days with him," Kagome msmiled and tilted her head to the sky.

"Good, let's hurry. The sooner you get home, the sooner you have your child," InuYasha started walking a little faster. No one complained as they too picked up the pace.

Kagome drove her white 4-door Intrepid up the drive way to the huge house. 'This is his home?' she thought incredously.

InuYasha shifted next to her. "Kagome, this house has as much land as your shrine."

"Thanks, InuYasha, for stating the obvious. He must be rich, but I don't care. I'm going to get a job at the shrine as a priestess and then once again I'll be able to hold my baby. My boy shouldn't be with that man," Kagome parked in front of the large doors. SHe stepped out of the still running car. InuYasha also got out.

"Kagome, what if he says Dev can't come?" InuYasha asked.

"Then we call the police and my lawyer," Kagome said with a smile.

InuYasha sighed as they stood at the huge French doors. Kagome reached out and pushed the doorbell. They both heard wind chimes as they waited for someone to open the door.

"That's a stupid doorbell," Kagome muttered. InuYasha didn't react.

Many thoughts were running through the hanyou's head. Most thoughts consisted of, 'Don't attack him. Just get Dev and leave. Don't attack.' He had to block out all the daydreaming images of how he wanted to hurt Ashi.

The door swung open. A man in a nice uniform said in a silky voice, "May I help you?"

"I'm Dev's mom. I'm here for my son," Kagome said.

The man looked at both of them with a question on the tip of his toungue, but he never said it. Instead he stepped aside and motioned for them to enter.

Kagome and a nervous InuYasha stood in the doorway entrance. InuYasha adjusted his black t-shirt and his black baseball cap.

They didn't have to wait long for another person to greet them. This time Dev was in the woman's arms.

When Dev saw Kagome and InuYasha he struggled from the girl's grasp and when the blonde put him down he ran to the two who had raised him. InuYasha immediately picked the two year-old up. "Mammy! Inu!" He cried out.

"Oh, Dev," Kagome hugged him tightly as he was in InuYasha's arms . InuYasha said nothing, it was enough for him to just hold the little boy again.

The happy reunion soon ended when Ashi walked into the main hallway. "Kagome! So, you came to pick our son up? Don't forget the courts said to have him back by 6 pm on Sunday. Just in time for dinner," he then looked at the white haired hanyou, who was scowling and trying to control his own temper. "Kagome, dear, is this your boyfriend? I've seen so much of him."

Before Kagome answered, InuYasha said, "Yes." Kagome did a good job of hiding her surprise, but she was trying to figure out what her half demon friend was up to. 'Does he even know what a boyfriend is?'

"We're leaving," Kagome pulled on InuYasha's arm. "C'mon."

"Bye. See you Sunday," Ashi said politely.

The two left the house and got into the car. Dev going peacefully into his car-seat.

Once the car was on the main roads, InuYasha turned to look at Kagome, "Kagome, what's a boyfriend?"

Kagome smiled at his ignorance, "Almost exactly what it sounds like. Only, well, girlfriends and boyfriends date. They like eachother more then just friends. But they aren't married yet, or might never marry." She wanted to say 'Like you and Kikyo were.'

"Oh," was the only reply she recieved. He understood; at least he thought he did.

They drove the rest of the way back to the shrine in silence.

======================================================================

I would like to thank everyone who reviewed that last chapter. I love all the idea's and what I didn't understand, my mom helped with. I would also like to thank my mom with a special thanks for teaching me how to spell a few new words for this chapter. She helped me so much on my trip! ^_^

I wrote this on the boat to the Grand Canyon. I'm sorry I didn't write more, but it was vacation. I'm sure no one wants to know what it was like for me to be there, so I'll leave out the details. Mostly we left Las Vegas, Nevada to go for a 20 min. drive to Lake Mead. Then we left on a wonderful house boat with all my family and my one friend (her ff.net name is Lady Hazal). We toured Lake Mead and saw the sights. Went to the Grand Canyon in the boat. Couldn't ride the hellocopters or the donkeys. Most all got sea sick the first day from the storm my loving father drove us into, luckily my mom knows about boats and got us out.

If anyone really wants to know what the rest is, I could e-mail them an account. ^_^

Anyway, the next chapter will be longer. It should come out some time next week. I have to get back onto my normal time again.

Disclaimer: The whole trip I saw my younger and older sister's with their guys, and I thought "Why can't InuYasha be real? Then he could be here with me!!" But alas I do not own him, and so was unable to bring him with me. Wouldn't that be kul though!?
