Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, I do own Mirror and Raye and yeah, some more people coming up soon! WOOT!

Chapter 6

Mirror stretched, walking down the street beside her father, Shippo and Raye. She'd been released, and they'd come to get her. "Mirror," Inuyasha said, dropping back beside her.

"Yeah dad?" she looked at him, smiling.

"I wanted to apologize. I wasn't thinking when I asked your mom out last night and I know you heard. I upset you and I'm sorry," he looked at his feet.

"I'm sorry too," she said, hugging him. "I was a jerk." He hugged her back, sighing.

"Come on! Shippo and Raye are waiting," he said, laughing softly. She nodded, running. "Hey! Wait up!"

Kagome walked into the living room where Mirror and the others were, smiling. "Inuyasha, could we talk?"

He looked up at her and nodded, standing. "I'll be back in a few minutes," he said to Mirror, following Kagome out the door. "Now what did you want?" he asked, smiling.

"To talk about Mirror and Shippo," she said, leaning against the wall.

"What about 'em?" he asked, sitting on the floor.

"You mean you haven't noticed? In the past few days they've started to like each other, like us!"

"What?" Inuyasha stood, clenching his fists.

"Calm down. It's cute," she said, laughing, "look at them." She pointed into the living room and Inuyasha looked too, his eyes growing wide at what he saw.

Shippo was sitting so close to Mirror that she was practically in his lap, leaning back against his chest, her knees up. He had his arms wrapped around her, resting his head on her shoulder.

She looked so happy, Inuyasha realized, smiling. "Well, I guess it's not that bad," he said, kissing Kagome softly. "Come on." He led her back into the living room, Shippo quickly letting Mirror go. Inuyasha looked at him, shaking his head, "Now why'd you do that Shippo?" he asked, laughing.

"Huh? Why'd I do what Inuyasha?" he looked at him, puzzled.

"Why'd you let Mirror go when I walked in?" he sat down, pulling Kagome into his lap. He smiled at the look on Shippo's face, chuckling. "It's not like I mind you two doing stuff. I understand that you like each other."

Mirror's jaw dropped. "But just the other day you complained because I kissed his ear where I'd flicked it!"

"Yeah well, I changed my mind. You two can do what you want," he leaned back, crossing his arms behind his head.

"Mom, did you have something to do with this?" Mirror asked, looking at her mother knowingly.

"Maybe," Kagome winked, laughing. "But it was more of you two, you see, your dad and I saw you guys all snuggled up a second ago."

Shippo blushed. "Well, Kagome, Inuyasha, could Mirror and I go to the movies with Raye and some of her friends this afternoon?"

"Of course, right Inuyasha?" Kagome looked at him, raising her eyebrows.

"Whatever," he said, sighing. He closed his eyes, "Just don't do anything stupid." Shippo, Mirror, and Raye nodded.

"Come on guys, I told Rick and the others we'd be there at six if we were gonna be able to go and if we don't go now we'll be late." Mirror and Shippo smiled, all three running out.

Miroku and Sango looked at him curiously. "You're just going to let them go un-chaperoned?" Miroku asked, looking at Kagome.

"They do it all the time,' she replied, leaning against Inuyasha. "You know, I really missed you guys. It's been too long."

"We missed you too, it's just, we were busy with Inuyasha and you didn't seem to want to see us so," Sango said, leaning against Miroku.

Kagome looked at them, cocking her head to one side. "We've been engaged for a few months," Miroku said, seeing Kagome's confusion. He laughed softly, hugging Sango. "I stopped being so lecherous and she didn't feel so uncomfortable around me."

Kagome nodded. "Makes sense that it would happen like that."

Miroku nodded, kissing Sango's cheek.

Mirror walked down the sidewalk with Shippo and Raye, clasping Shippo's hand tightly. "What's wrong?" he whispered, kissing her ear.

"It's nothing," she said, squeezing his hand.

"Don't lie, what is it? Please?"

She sighed, "It's just, I haven't seen Rick or anyone else in a long time," she said, looking at the ground.

"Hey," he tilted her head up, smiling. He kissed her softly, "Don't worry about it, you're with me."

She nodded, smiling. "Of course," she whispered, looking ahead. She could make out the group now, four more people waiting on her, Shippo, and Raye.

"Hey guys," she said, waving. There was a girl with shoulder length brown hair and big blue eyes and pouty lips. Her friend Scarlet, and then there was Jay with his mostly shaved head with the little fluffy comb over Mohawk thing. Jon took Raye in a large hug, a smile lighting up his eyes.

"Hey Mirror." Rick was the first to speak, hugging her. "I missed you," he whispered lightly in her ear. He was tall with shaggy black hair and deep blue eyes. He smiled, releasing her.

Shippo growled, knitting his eyebrows in irritance. "Shippo," she whispered, hugging him and kissing his neck lightly, "It's ok, Rick's just my friend."

"I don't like the way he looked at you," Shippo hissed, sighing.

She nodded, "Everyone, this is my boyfriend Shippo," she said, smiling. "Shippo, this is Rick, Jay, Scarlet and Jon."

"Hey man, nice to meet you," Jon said, smiling at Shippo and winking.

"Pleasure," Scarlet said, shaking his hand.

Jay nodded. "Come on guys, the movie starts in a few minutes. Rick glared at Shippo who put his arm around Mirror protectively.

"I really don't like him."

Well, that's all. I tried hard!
