Inuyasha growled.
These things she called 'pants' confused him as hell. And that 'shirt'
thing did too. Damn, the whole outfit confused him.
Unfortunately, Kagome was helping Shippou with his clothing, and making
sure he could hold his illusion of a human form.
"Inuyasha, aren't you ready yet?" Kagome asked, knocking on her bedroom
door.
"No!! What the hell am I supposed to do with these things?!" he asked
irritably.
Kagome sighed, "Okay, let me help you..." she said, opening the door.
Fighting to keep back a laugh, she crossed the room to her mate. Poor
Inuyasha looked helpless in the modern clothes she had given him.
She straightened out the red T-shirt she gave him, and bent to fix his
jeans. She zipped and buttoned the pants, and straightened. Inuyasha
grabbed her and held her tight against him.
"Inuyasha?" she asked, puzzled.
He said nothing, holding her there. She sighed, and snuggled her face into
the crook of his neck, finding the perfect niche. She was amused when his
chest started to rumble that could only be described as a purr.
"The next time you do that, we better have a bed nearby and a lot of time
to spare." He murmured into her hair.
She blushed, a pretty pink gracing her cheeks, just now understanding what
he ment. "You..." she struggled, at a loss for words. He laughed lightly,
and released her.
"C'mon, we need to get going, Shippou's probably wondering about us." She
said, leading the way. Inuyasha followed, grinning widely.
"Mo~om! I'm gonna go now!" she hollered, pausing at the front door's frame.
"Okay Honey, be back for supper!" came the answering yell. "Will do!"
Kagome replied.
Inuyasha and Shippou winced, and looked at her. "Yes?" she asked
innocently.
"Ya mind toning it down a little?" Inuyasha asked. "Since we've got here,
you've done a lot more yelling, it kinda grates on the ears."
Kagome frowned, and a dangerous glint appeared in her eyes. "Grates? I'll
give you 'grates'..." she said irritably, jerking the door open. Shippou
shook his cute little head and shut the door after them. Kagome led them
out to her mom's car.
"Shippou, you can get the front seat, let Inuyasha sit in the back." Kagome
said icily. A sullen Inuyasha climbed in the back of the strange contraption, while Shippou happily crawled in the front. Kagome slipped him
some ear plugs, and whispered softly to him to put them in his ears, so
Inuyasha wouldn't hear what she said. Shippou warily complied.
All this went on whilst Inuyasha sat in the back, and he watched as she took a flat, circular object and slid it into a hole surrounded by buttons. (A/N: The car's CD player with all the controls for those who don't know.)
She turned a knob that said 'volume', whatever that was, really high.
She started the car up, and music instantly blared through the speakers,
which were convieniently placed in the back.
To make it worse, these things kept beating and a high voice sang out. "Oi
wench, what the hell is this?!" he shouted over the music.
"Evanescence." she replied simply, beginning to sing along, and matching
the voice beautifully. "It's called 'Going Under'."
Inuyasha didn't care what it was called, as long as it stopped, and soon.
He looked to see if the kitsune was affected like he was, but the kit was
happily bouncing along to the beat, seemingly indifferent to the din.
Mercifully, they reached the mall soon and Inuyasha's ear were spared from
becoming deaf. He made a mental note never to irritate his mate again.
Kagome slipped the ear plugs out of Shippou's ears, after turning down the
music to an acceptable level. She led them into the mall, where they were
awed by all the sounds, smells, people, and sights that clamoured around
them. She walked as though quite familiar with the area, bringing them to
the children's section, and promptly began going through the racks,
mumbling to herself, stopping every now and then to dump off a load of
clothes to the reluctant arms of Inuyasha.
Satisfied, she ushered Shippou into the fitting rooms, helping him into the
clothes, and discarding the ones that didn't meet to her standards. She
whisked them through the line with no problem, and since there were too
many bags to carry, dumped them in the trunk of her car.
Inuyasha's shopping didn't go quite so easy.
"Why can't I just wear what I have?" he demanded.
"Because people don't go around in fire rat haoris and hakamas!!" she
replied angrily.
"What's wrong with them?" he fired back, equally riled up.
"They're outdated!!!"
"So?"
"AARRGGHH!!! If you don't cooperate, it'll be the couch for you tonight,
buster." She threatened in a low voice.
Inuyasha seemed more than happy to agree after that.
Shoving him into a fitting room with arms loads of clothes, she shut the
door and left the poor inu hanyou to fend for himself.
She waited impatiently outside, and after 10 mins. had passed, finally asked, "Don't you have the first outfit on yet Inuyasha, I want to see how
you look in it."
A silver head popped out of the door, "I need some help." he whispered,
pouting.
All of Kagome's anger dissappeared in that instant, upon seeing her hanyou
so pouty looking and very kawaii and just so vulnerable looking- *WOAH! Back up Kagome, wait until you get home, in other words. Down Girl, Down!*
she mentally scolded herself.
So with Kagome's help, they eventually got through the clothes. She made sure that the boys switched into their new clothes though, just to get the
feel of them.
Shippou looked very cute in his new clothes. He wore a green T-shirt that
had a fox on it. When he had saw it, he begged Kagome for the shirt. He
also wore a pair of baggy blue jeans.
Inuyasha wore a red shirt that had 'I'm out of bed and dressed, what more
do you want?' written on it with a pair of baggy black pants.
She decided that since the shopping had turned out so well that they
deserved a treat. Steering them towards the food court, Kagome made sure
her and Inuyasha's ears were hidden under their hair and that Shippou's
illusion was firmly in place.
She seated them at the table, with a breif warning of not to move, and went
off to get some cheeseburgers, fries, and a couple of sodas. Standing in
line, she anxiously kept her eyes towards the boys' table.
"C'mon, c'mon." she murmured to herself.
"Next?" a voice demanded. Kagome was too lost in thought to hear. "May I
take your order?" Still no response. "Ma'am?!"
Kagome finally turned, blushed, and hurridly placed her order. After another few minutes of painful waiting she was speeding off with her tray,
leaving the register employee shaking his head after. Dumb kids.
"Here's the food!" she said cheerily, all anxiousness gone.
"What is it, 'Kaa-san?" Shippou asked, warily poking a wrapper.
"They're called 'cheeseburgers' and they're very good. You can get them almost anywhere for about the price of..." she thought quickly in her head
what item a cheeseburger could be traded for at today's prices. "...a
couple of children's toys...I think..."
"That cheap?" Shippou asked.
"Yep."
Passing out the burgers, she unwrapped them and bit into it, savoring the
first fast food she'd had in weeks.
"Mmm! This IS good, 'Kaa-san!" Shippou exclaimed in surprise.
"Yeah, this is almost as good as ramen!" Inuyasha said, giving it the
highest compliment he could think of.
Kagome smiled smugly, no one good withstand the cheesy goodness of a
cheesesburger. She poured salt on her fries, and began munching on them.
"How's the fries?" she asked, and was greeted with enthusiastic nods.
"Kagome!" a voice called.
Kagome looked up, and mentally groaned. Eri, Amy, and Umi were elbowing
their way through the crowd over to her table.
"Who're they?" Inuyasha questioned, taking a swig of his first soda.
"Friends from school." she said quietly. "Shippou, they wouldn't understand
if you call me 'mom' in front of them, stick to Kagome, alright?"
Shippou nodded in understanding.
"Kagome, how've you been? Have you gotten over you're monkey pox?" Amy
asked. (A/N: That's actually a real disease, I had to do some research on it, basically, it's kinda the opposite of chicken pox, it's worse in small
children than in teenagers or adults. So Kag got it easy. ^^;)
*Monkey pox?! Grandpa, when I get my hands on you...* Kagome thought
furiously. "Uh, yeah, I'm all better now..." she lied easily.
"That's great! Now you can go out with Hojo this weekend. He's been asking
about you!" Eri said suggestively.
Inuyasha looked up at this, eyes searching Kagome's face.
"Ummm, guys, I'm already involved with someone..." Kagome protested.
"Is it that guy you've told us about? The one with the huge attitude problem and big even bigger ego? Hojo seems much more nicer than him." Umi
added.
Kagome coughed, nodding slightly toward Inuyasha. They took the hint. "Uhhh, whoops, ummm, so, who's that kawaii little kid beside you Kags?" Eri
said, searching desperately for another topic.
"That's Shippou, he's my...nephew...on my father's side." she said quickly.
Her friends nodded, happy with the explanation, and went to fawn over the
kawaii little kid. Shippou immediately took to the attention. Gladly
receiving all the presents of candy.
Inuyasha scooted closer to her and whispered in her ear, "Attitude problem
and ego? Somehow, I don't see the love here." Kagome giggled softly. He
grinned, "I'll find a way for you to make it up to me later."
Kagome squeked in surprise as she was abruptly lifted from her seat to a
more comfy one of that of Inuyasha's lap.
Amy noticed the shift, and elbowed the other two, nodding at the oblivious
couple in a moment of love. They sighed dreamily, deeming him good enough
for their friend, and went back to being Shippou's fangirls. (A/N: Go
Shippou! He's so KAWAII!!! ^-^)
After a few more minutes of cuddling, Kagome realized what time it was.
"Sorry guys, but we have to get going, Mom wants us back."
The girls reluctantly left the incredibly adorable Shippou, said their
goodbyes to the couple and went off to shop.
Getting into the car, Inuyasha finally got the front seat, after fighting with Shippou and eventually having to carry him on his lap. Kagome kept the
radio volume to an average level.
Back at home, they helped clean house, and burned of their lunch at the
mall. Kagome and Inuyasha's ears were now free to do what they pleased.
"Supper!" Midori yelled, calling in the couple, Shippou had been helping her in the kitchen, being fawned over by Kagome's mom too. She was estatic
to have a grandchild.
Eating at the table, Kagome spoke, suddenly noticing something. "Mom,
where's Sota and Grandpa?"
"Oh, you're Grandpa's on vacation, and Sota's at a friend's house, he'll be back tomorrow afternoon." Midori answered. "Now, it's been a very long day,
and I want you to give this little one a bath, take one yourselves, and
head on up to bed."
Nodding sleepily, they followed her directions. To save time, Kagome took a
bath with Shippou.
Inuyasha climbed into bed, freshly clean from his shower and in the new
pajama's Kagome had gotten him, he snuggled up to Kagome, already asleep, who automatically cuddled him back. He smiled tiredly, placed a kiss on her
forehead, and slipped off to dreamland with his beloved.
