A/N: Well, I'm back from Colorado,(band trip) back from Nebraska (went for the weekend for Spring Break), and now looking forward to going to Minnesota for an art college….man I've been busy…

Disclamer: Don't own InuYasha but Akinori hugs is mine!

Kikyo had left a few hours ago which left InuYasha staring out the window, forlornly. "Man, what cruddy weather it's been this last week." It was raining again, a light drizzle.

InuTaisho looked up from his newspaper; he had gotten back about an hour ago. He couldn't believe it either, one minute it was nice and sunny, next it was clouded over.

Turning his attention to his father, InuYasha kicked up his legs on the coffee table while asking, "So, was Akinori there?"

"Mhmm."

"How's he doing?" pressed the dog eared youth.

"Good." InuTaisho smirked behind the newspaper, wanting to tease him a bit longer.

"Did he say anything interesting?" InuYasha idly looked at his claws.

"eh" InuTaisho shrugged.

Unconsciously, InuYasha's eyebrow was twitching in irritation.

"So…was his father there with him?" The youngster added, wanting to make conversation.

All he got was another shrug.

Then came the explosion. "DARN IT! WHAT ARE YOU ACTING SO SMUG ABOUT! I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE CONVERSATION!"

InuTaisho casually looked over the comics section. "Hm? What were you saying?"

InuYasha's eyes widened, with a growl the hanyou realized, Taisho was just jesting him. "Funny." Abruptly getting up, InuYasha exited the room.

As the steamed half breed left, InuTasisho let out a chuckle of amusement. Muttering to himself, "Children are so fun to pester."

Rin entered the room, beaming as she saw "Grampy Taisho" as she ran over and he swept her up into his lap.

"Rin, Rin, Rin", the inu smiled, "How's my Rin doing?"

"Good Gramps. Sesshomaru-sama showed me around today."

InuTaisho inwardly frowned at the use of 'Sesshomaru-sama', that was way too proper, he would have to talk to his son.

Rin continued as he set that thought aside, "Grandma gave me this!" Rin hugged a plush teddy that had once been Taijya's, he had gotten that for her when they were dating at a theme park.

Sesshomaru walked into the room, absently brushing his hair behind his ear as his nose was buried in some papers, Taisho thought 'for college, no doubt, the poor kids gonna get a migraine if he keeps this up, he does know that this is his break, right?'

Rin whispered to InuTaisho, "Sesshomaru-sama has been busy all day with those papers."

Clearing his throat, InuTaisho spoke, "Sesshomaru, what are you working on now?"

Continuing to examine the papers, Sesshomaru replied, "If you are implying that they are for college, they are not. It's for my car that was in a wreck, if you recall."

Scratching his chin considerably, InuTaisho had totally forgotten about that, "Oh.. you got everything taken care of?"

"Well," Sesshomaru raised his head to make eye contact with his father, "It looks like it was totally wreaked and since we had it paid off, the insurance will pay for another car. I have made arrangements to meet a dealer later on in a few hours."

InuTaisho nodded, bouncing Rin playfully in his lap. "You want to use my car?"

Sesshomaru shook his head, "I can walk."

Smiling, the older youkai yelled, "InuYasha! Get in here!"

InuYasha trudged in a few minutes later, the phone oddly held up near one of his dog-like ears, "I gotta go Miroku, my dad's calling for me, bye." As he hung up the phone, he looked slightly annoyed at Taisho. "What?"

Still with a big grin on his face, InuTaisho said calmly, "Sesshomaru is going to be getting a new car today; I'd like you to go with him."

Sesshomaru's eyes widened, was this really necessary?

"WHAT? Why do I have to go with him?" He pointed at his half brother.

Calmly replying, their father kept the smug look on his face, "You two could do some brotherly bonding, what, with Sesshomaru gone most of the time at college and you, InuYasha, can't get you away from that girl friend of yours…" He looked at his youngest son through squinted eyes, playfully mocking, "Haven't seen you for a while…"

Rin giggled at her grandpa, he was really funny!

"Father." Sesshomaru calmly said, seeing it was his turn to try to avoid this 'brotherly bonding' deal, "I don't see the significance of InuYasha going, I'm sure he'll just get bored and start whining instead." He looked at Rin, "I could take Rin with me instead."

As InuYasha snorted, InuTaisho shook his head.

"Your mother and I were going to take this little girl shopping today."

Sesshomaru knew he had no way out of it now, he would have to suffice.

A few hours later, Sesshomaru and InuYasha were on their way to the car dealership.

And as predicted, InuYasha was already grumbling, not even five blocks from the Taisho's residence.

"I don't see the point. Why do I have to come and watch you pick out a car, you'll probably spend half the time admiring yourself in the windows, anyway."

Sesshomaru didn't know what to think of that…little brothers could be such nuisances.

"Why couldn't I go shopping?" InuYasha continued his never ending rant, kicking a rock down the street, "Now, I'm stuck walking in a crappy drizzly day with mister sociable."

Sesshomaru inclined his head toward his 'dear' brother slightly, "InuYasha."

"What?"

"Shut your obstinate mouth at this instant." He turned his head forward again.

InuYasha did, not really wanting to cause a big argument.

After they arrived at the car dealer ship, a man was waiting for them. "Hello, my name is Takanaka, I'll glad to help you today."

Sesshomaru took in the man's appearance, rather tall with short black hair, normal human… 'Let's get this over with.' He saw out of the corner of his eye InuYasha eyeing some cars, but otherwise looking utterly miserable, from sheer boredom.

Sesshomaru didn't want to put up with anymore whining…he had everything planned anyway, so it shouldn't take to long.

"Hello, I am Taisho, Sesshomaru, I called earlier today about…" He laid down his papers, "A new car."

Takanaka scooted the papers toward himself and quickly scanned through them, "Ah, yes. You were in that accident a few days ago?"

Sesshomaru nodded, "Yes."

"Man…" Takanaka eyed him, "Looks like you were lucky, no?"

"Well, a few bruises and scacthes." Sesshomaru 'seemingly' said jokingly.

InuYasha rolled his eyes… how long would this take?

A/N: Well, I'm going to end it there and I would like for you, reviewers, to give suggestions on what kind of car Sesshomaru should purchase! (Thought it might be interesting to see what others think.) Thank you for you patience, I have been quite busy lately…So get back to that for me, Thank you.
