Memories

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. But I did create his children on my own….so I guess I own them.

Prologue

"Daddy, can I please have a pony?"

"Why do you want a pony? You have your feet."

"So I can ride him." The little girl with dark hair like her mother's jumped up and down, keeping the bright, young smile on her face. Her eyes shown the brightness he'd seen before, in her mother. She was just like her, in almost every way.

"Feh," he instead turned his head and closed his eyes. Sure, it looked like it was an obvious no, but he was only thinking. A horse would put her in danger….where they lived put her in danger. Of course, Kagome would say yes and urge him to get one much like Takeshi and his dog.

He felt the small body of his daughter crawl on top of his chest and began poking at his tight body, trying to find a weak point.

"Ow!" Inuyasha flinched and grinned. "Geeze, Hotaru, you're so mean!"

The little girl just laughed and poked him again.

"Oh! You're going to kill me!"

She only smiled bigger and began to poke at his ticklish spot.

Inuyasha flinched and laughed back. He gently began to tickled back, careful of his claws.

Hotaru laughed and rolled off her father in laughter. He loved hearing her laugh, knowing that it was something special. Something that he wished he could hear all the time. There was no explaining it but it was times like these that he wished she'd never have to grow up and he could baby her forever, just to make her happy.

"Dad!"

Inuyasha stopped to look up. Hotaru took full advantage to tickle him back.

"Dad!"

Inuyasha laughed gently and tried to pry his daughter off so he could talk with his son.

"Yeah? Oh wow!"

Hotaru stopped and looked at the huge fish her brother had caught. "Wow. That's a big one! You beat Dads!"

"Are we going to have it for dinner, Takeshi?"

"Yeah!"

Inuyasha picked up his small daughter's form and carried her on his shoulders to the little hut in which they lived. His oldest son was chopping wood while Kagome had started a fire. Inuyasha gently let Hotaru down and moved to his loving wife. Takeshi cleaned the fish and put it on the rock for his mother. Then he tied up his dog so he wouldn't eat it.

"I missed you," Inuyasha whispered into her ear.

Kagome turned around and laughed. "I was only gone for a few hours!"

"Yeah…" Inuyasha let his lips drift to her ear and he softly kissed just below her earlobe, her special spot.

Kagome moaned very softly, so only Inuyasha could hear her and pulled back. They only got to look at each other for a second before they kissed and they're children brought them back to reality.

"Mom, can I have a cookie?"

Kagome shook her head and sat down, winking at Inuyasha. "No, Hotaru. It's almost dinner time!"

"One cookie won't spoil her appetite." Inuyasha put the fish on the hot tray above the fire and sprinkled some spice on it.

"Inuyasha," Kagome quickly warned.

Inuyasha just smirked in return.
