Boys of Summer Chapter Six: Two Down, Four to Go
-Note-
Hey people! On October 8, Heaven Sent will be coming back! So please be patient until then! Also, I have a new InuYasha story coming soon called Looking Through Your Eyes! Email me if you would like a summary.
"No, no, no! Go le-"
But it was too late. Shippo's car took a turn for the worst and slide into the wall, causing him to automatically fail his license test.
He dropped the controller and sank back into the couch. Kanna looked from Shippo's angered flushed face back down to the transparent Playstation 2 controller outlined by a blue fluorescent light.
"Um, Shippo.."
"Go ahead."
"What?"
"Go ahead and try."
Kanna giggled and restarted the driving test. After a few seconds, Shippo slowly moved the pillow from his face and watched Kanna take the sharp turns smooth and easy. And when she crossed the finish line with the gold trophy, he stared at her in disbelief.
"How is it that you can be better than me? The Ole Master of Ye Playstation 2?"
Kanna shrugged and saved the game.
"Maybe it's just me. But I know one game that you're better than me at."
"And that would be...?"
She reached into Shippo's entertainment center cabinet and pulled out Final Fantasy X. Kanna handed it to Shippo who reached under his bed and pulled out a thick black notebook full of papers.
"What's this?" She asked, flipping through numerous maps, character drawings, and pictures of items along with their descriptions.
Shippo looked up from putting the game into the console and smiled.
"Nine hundred hours and forty-seven minutes of game play. Every item, weapon, character, map, machine, and place is sketched into that book."
Kanna flipped through the book in amazement. The Aeons were in perfect detail, the items had their effects, and what happened when they were mixed with certain other items. Then she came across a drawing of Tidus and Yuna in a pond kissing.
"Shippo? What's this?"
Shippo looked up from walking through Macalania Woods and smiled.
"I'll show you."
"How long have they been playing?" Kagome asked InuYasha and Miroku over their odd lunch of turkey and lettuce sandwiches, pickles, and carrots with ranch dressing.
Well, maybe her and Sango's lunch was normal, but InuYasha and Miroku had been kicked out of their house in the wee hours of the morning and only had time to grab some of their stash junk food; Hershey bars, Chico sticks, potato chips, cookies, and two cans of whip cream.
Miroku squirted some whip cream onto a Dorito and left InuYasha to answer.
"Since about three this morning. We came knocking when Kanna and Shippo came downstairs and interrupted our game of BS and told us to come over here."
"But why?" "They had declared all out war on each other because Shippo messed up and said that Tennessee sucked, and Kanna challenged him to a game of Gran Turismo 3 that would last six hours. But it's lasted for about nine now."
Sango took a sip of Kool-Aid and looked over at the silver haired boy who was placing a piece of Hershey bar and Chico stick on top of some whip cream and in between two cookies like a s'more.
"InuYasha, you are going to have bad indigestion." Sango said picking up a pickle.
Miroku gave a nod of agreement, and grabbed a pickle and put whip cream on it.
"And I'm no exception." He said, stuffing the disgusting looking food item into his mouth and chewed happily.
Sango turned noticeably pale as she clapped a hand over her mouth then took a long drink of Kool-Aid. Miroku noticed her disgust, and did it again.
"Miroku, don't push me." Sango threatened.
With whip cream on the corners of his mouth, Miroku smiled widely.
"Or what?" He smirked before repeating the same process again.
"That's it!"
Sango stood up angrily and walked into the living room. Miroku looked at InuYasha and Kagome and shrugged before a neon green boomerang cracked him in the head.
He looked up to see Sango standing in the entrance of the kitchen grinning smugly with her arms crossed over her chest. He threw it back as hard as he could, only to have her catch it with ease and hurl it back at him.
"Miroku, just give it up! She's going to-"
Miroku and Sango ceased tossing the toy back and forth when it smacked InuYasha in the nose. A trickle of blood came from InuYasha's left nostril, and he held the boomerang and tapped it dangerously in his palm.
"InuYasha...Brother dear...Breath..." Miroku spoke nervously and pitifully as the golden eyed boy drew dangerously close.
Sango and Kagome watched as InuYasha pummeled poor Miroku with the little green boomerang. Kagome picked up one of the cookies and munched away, Sango squirted some whip cream in her mouth.
"Amusing, isn't it?" Kagome muttered, taking another cookie from the package.
"Mfesh, furry fuch fo." Sango sputtered through a cloud of whip cream.
Miroku slid under the table, InuYasha followed still whacking away with the boomerang. Sango's Kool-Aid spilt all over the two girls, and the two males wrestling around ceased their activities when they stood up and glared at them.
"Sango..." "Kagome..."
InuYasha and Miroku both scooted up against the wall.
"Breath..." The muttered in unison, the wall ending behind them.
Kagome and Sango pounced on them, and began a flogging of their own.
..........
Kanna sniffed as she watched the pond scene with Yuna and Tidus. Shippo had been watching her intently, almost chuckling at the first girlish emotion she had ever shone in front of him.
When it ended, Kanna leaned over and bawled into Shippo's chest.
"Tha-that was the sweetest thing ever!" She managed to get out through her tears.
Shippo lifted her chin and smiled at her softly.
"Shippo, what are you-"
Silence...
Shippo's lips grazed Kanna's in a sweet, innocent kiss. A light butterfly kiss of newly born love between a young man and a young woman.
"Kanna?" Shippo said, pulling away from the blushing girl before him.
"Yeah?" She said, sounding mesmerized with her fingers touching her lips.
"I love you, Kanna."
Kanna blushed and smiled at Shippo.
"I love you too, Shippo."
