A/N So sorry for how long it took. My parents had this big party thing they had to prepare for... So I had to help... sigh anyways here's a new chapter I hope you guys like it!
"If you like Pina Colodas... dun dun... And getting caught in the rain... dun dun dun...Like the feel of the Ocean...dun dun... And the taste of champagne..." Kagome was singing around in the kitchen, adding in some dance steps, while Inuyasha was unpacking all of their groceries.
"Wow Kagome... looks like you bought the whole store... RAMEN! YAY!" Inuyasha quickly grabbed the ramen and promptly filled a cupboard with it. Kagome rolled her eyes. 'Figures... he sees the ramen and forgets everything...' As Inuyasha was busying bouncing on his toes in front of his bowl of ramen waiting for it to cook the phone rang. Kagome walked over and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Uh... you're not Inuyasha! Put him on the phone now!"
'Well isn't someone a major bitch.' Kagome thought. "Inuyasha! Phone is for you. Hurry up we have to start dinner!"
"Mm-ky" Inuyasha managed to get out through a mouth full of ramen. He quickly polished it off and picked up the phone. "Hello?" He asked in a gruff tone.
"Yashie-Baby!" Inuyasha quickly pulled the phone away from his ear. Quickly shook his head and demanded into the phone.
"What the fuck do what? Is your new fuck toy not good enough?" He spat the words out.
"Yashie... I'm hurt... you're the only one for me!" Kikyou squealed so loud it reached Kagome's ears. Kagome shivered.
'I'm going to have to change our number...' Inuyasha thought. "What. Do. You. Want..." Inuyasha asked again.
"I know you want me back Inuyasha, so I've decided that I'm coming by today to drop off my stuff." Inuyasha's jaw dropped.
"And what time would this be?" He asked trying to keep his cool.
"In about two hours. I mean I have to pack everything. We'll be happy together for ever!" Inuyasha quickly said goodbye slammed down the phone turned to Kagome and said;
"I'm going to buy a few new locks. I'll be back soon." Leaving Kagome in a clearly confused state.
"Sango my dear you look exquisite!"
"Miroku what did I tell you about looking at my behind?"
"Not to stare at it. And I'll have you know I most certainly was not staring! I was merely casually glancing! NO DON'T HIT ME!" Miroku screamed, as Sango's first came crashing down on his head.
"Miroku will you ever learn?" Sango asked the unconscious monk with a sigh.
"Sango dearest, you know that the only reason why I do this is because I find you most attractive." Sango began to blush at this point.
"Well anyways Miroku, we have to decide what we're going to wear over at Inuyasha and Kagome's. Let's dress in business casual. Can't go wrong there!" Sango finished with a smile, as she picked out a pair of pants for Miroku to wear.
Kagome was in the kitchen finishing up the desert. It had to chill for at least three hours. 'Wow… I had no idea making huge dinners by yourself was so much work.'
Inuyasha had arrived home half an hour ago, with three locks. He had been busy installing them. So that left Kagome doing all of the cooking. Her cooking included: Misu soup, rice balls, baked salmon, mixed veggies and rice dough and bean paste for desert. As well as an American recipe she found. After Inuyasha had finished installing the locks Kagome sent him to have a shower so that he'd be ready when the guests arrived. So when Inuyasha was ready, he put away all of the dried dishes while Kagome was taking her shower.
Then he heard a key sliding into the lock. 'Heh… She'll be angry when she finds out that the lock has been changed…' Sure enough…
"ARRRGH! Yashie…" said an overly sweet voice. "Yashie… Something's wrong… My key isn't working. And I have all of these bags out here…" It was about then that Kikyou realized Inuyasha was laughing on the other side of the door. "INUYASHA! LET ME IN RIGHT NOW!"
"Why, Kikyou? This isn't your condo. As a matter of fact it never was. It's my name on the contract. Not yours. And anyways, the company I have now is much better than yours ever was." That sent Kikyou over the edge. He saw a fist connect with the door, heard the door shudder… then heard Kikyou stomping towards the elevator. 'Glad that's over…' Inuyasha mused to himself.
Kagome was finishing getting ready. And she figured Inuyasha would be wearing red so she decided to wear red as well. So she was looking through her closet and found a red short dress with spaghetti straps. She slipped in on, admiring how well it hung to the curves of her body. And thankful that it was big enough to cover her stomach. She put her hair up in a messy bun and stuck a hair ornament in it. 'Perfect!' She thought, then she put on some black eyeliner and some lip gloss. Giving her lips a smack, she smiled and winked at herself in the mirror.
She walked back into the common area where the kitchen and living rooms were. She was setting the table, when she realized she needed wine glasses. So she tried to reach them (they were on a high shelf) but was unsuccessful. So she called Inuyasha to help her.
He walked into the dinning room and Kagome felt her heart speed up. He was dressed in a red shirt and black pants. But the shirt wasn't a bright red. Instead it was more of a crimson colour. He walked up until he was right in front of her. Reached up and grabbed the glasses. His eyes never once wandering from hers. Then he began to lean down towards her face. They could feel each others breath. They were centimetres apart when a loud knocking was heard at the door. 'Shit!' they both thought at the same time.
"Shall we greet our guests?" Inuyasha asked while holding his arm out to Kagome.
"Let's." She replied while setting the glasses down, and taking Inuyasha's arm.
'This is how it should be…' thought Inuyasha. As they reached the door Inuyasha opened it and standing there beaming was Miroku and Sango holding hands.
"Come on in guys!" Inuyasha said in a happy voice. Even Kikyou's visit couldn't ruin the happiness he was feeling right now with his Kagome on his arm. As they moved into the kitchen he poured himself, Miroku and Sango a glass of wine. While Kagome sat there sipping water.
"So Kags, how's the baby doing?" asked Miroku
"So far she's fine." Kagome replied with a smile.
"WHAT!" Sango yelled. "The baby has a gender and you didn't tell me? Oh Kagome I'm so happy it's a girl!" Sango exclaimed while picked Kagome up out of her seat and hugging her while dancing around the room with her.
"Women…" Inuyasha muttered.
"Now Inuyasha I know full well you have feelings for Miss Kagome. I can see it when you look at her. And I can see she has feeling for you too. So how have things been since last time we talked?" Miroku inquired.
"Well they've been great actually. A few bumps here and there but it's still pretty good."
"And what bumps would those be?" Miroku asked while watching Sango and Kagome do the Easter bunny dance.
"Well for one. Kagome's doctor is my brother…"
"No way! Sesshomaru is Kagome's doctor? Does he treat her well? Because I'm assuming you took her to the appointment."
"Yeah he was great to her, which really surprised me. Kikyou came by a little before you guys came…"
"Ah, that would explain the fist in the door. As well as the extra locks I'm assuming?"
"Yeah…"
"So are those the only bumps? I'm sure something has happened? Any good dreams about Kagome?" Miroku asked while a mischievous grin spread across his face.
"Those aren't for you to know about Miroku!" Inuyasha said while his face flushed. Whether it was anger or embarrassment Miroku didn't know.
"Oh ho! So there are dreams! You little devil you. And how can you have not acted. I mean Kagome's a beautiful woman. But don't get me wrong, Sango's more to my tastes."
Sango and Kagome were laughing about something because they were both giggling like school girls. When Inuyasha cocked an eyebrow at Kagome she just blushed and Sango laughed even more. So after that Kagome herded everyone into dining room and called Inuyasha to help her serve dinner.
Inuyasha came into the kitchen to see Kagome bent over looking into the oven. 'Must… not… think… perverted… thoughts… I'm not Miroku…I'm not Miroku… but jeeze does she ever look good like that… I just want to… NO! Stop it right now! This is definitely not the time. Gotta help her with serving…'
Inuyasha walked over to where Kagome was bent over and bent down looking at what she was doing. "Waiting for the soup to finish heating up, huh?" Kagome looked over at him.
"Yeah… could you grab me the soup bowls please?"
"Sure thing Kagome!" he said with a smile. It was then that he realized the soup bowls were above Kagome and he couldn't reach from where he was… 'Oh gods this is going to be awkward. Please forgive me Kagome…' Inuyasha stood behind Kagome and reached for the cupboard, efficiently pressing his hips against hers. Kagome's eyes shot open. She had no idea what to do in this situation. So after Inuyasha got the bowls down she proclaimed the soup to be done and dished it out. Then she brought out two bowls of soup while Inuyasha brought out the other two. Inuyasha and Kagome took seats opposite each other and they all smiled and began their meal.
After the soup came the steamed rice, baked salmon and mixed veggies. When all the dishes were set out in front of everyone they looked at meal. It was expertly done. Sango hadn't known Kagome could cook like that., neither did Miroku. Inuyasha knew Kagome could cook well, but not this well. So he was the first to take a bite and he thoroughly enjoyed it. The others followed his example and moaned in appreciation. Kagome was blushing at their praise.
After more wine was distributed conversation turned to what were Kagome's plans as to the future of her child.
"Well at first I thought I'd be able to stay at home and have a somewhat sound environment for my child to grow up in. But after my father kicked me out I can hardly go back there. My next thought was shortly after Inuyasha took me in. I was going to work and save up enough money to get a place of my own, so that my child could have their own place. Because staying with Inuyasha is only supposed to be temporary. But the longer that I stay here the more like home it feels. So I'm hoping that even if I don't stay here I'll be welcome so that my child won't have to worry about being on the streets."
"What about Kouga, Kagome?" Sango asked.
"What about him? I mean I know he's the father, but he's a friend now. That's all I mean sure now we'll always be connected through my little girl, but we're just friends. And I guess if worse comes to worse I can go and live with him, but I'd rather not."
Inuyasha let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. 'So she'd choose him over Kouga.' A smile spread across his face. "Alright now who wants desert?" Inuyasha asked with a lop-sided grin. Kagome rolled her eyes and went to the kitchen with Inuyasha following.
"So," Sango whispered to Miroku, "What do you think is going on between them? I mean Kagome hasn't told me anything about a relationship. Do you think they're just in denial?"
"I know they have feelings for each other. But they're just too shy to admit it. Sigh If only they were more like me Sango, they'd then express their feelings all the time."
SMACK
"But hopefully they wouldn't be as perverted…" Sango said while rubbing her hand.
"I have bean paste!" Kagome said with a smile. Then she noticed Miroku on the floor. "Sango did he do what I think he did?"
"Most likely…"
"What do you say we get some revenge? I'm sure I can get Inuyasha to help us out." A very malicious smile crossed Kagome's features.
"Uh… My head… Sango's getting stronger…" Miroku mumbled. Then he felt something warm beside him and realized it was a person. 'It must be Sango! She has finally given in to my charms! Why else would I be stripped down to my boxers?' "Hello there beautiful, did I tire you out?"
"Mmmmm… why yes Miroku you certainly did tire me out. I didn't know you thought I was beautiful though." said a voice that was very not Sango-ish. That caught Miroku's attention. Then a head of silver hair rose over the covers with sleepy eyes and began to draw circles on Miroku's chest.
"AHHHHHHH! INUYASHA WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Miroku screamed.
Inuyasha kept choking until finally he burst into tears laughing. "I really had you going there didn't I Miroku? Oh and the girls have been watching the whole thing from over there. He pointed to where Sango and Kagome were rolling on the floor both in tears laughing.
Miroku tried his best to regain his dignity by gathering his clothes and walking to the bathroom, where he tripped on the way. Causing the group to erupt into more fits of laughter. 'So much for dignity…'
After Miroku got dressed, Sango decided that they had both had too much to drink and would be staying at Inuyasha's for the night. Miroku didn't complain saying that as long as he didn't have to share a bed with Inuyasha he was fine. So Sango and Miroku were given Inuyasha's room, while Inuyasha was heading to sleep on the couch. Kagome walked into the living room and said "Inuyasha why don't you take my bed? I mean I'm the guest so you should still have your own bed."
"Kagome you're pregnant, don't worry about it."
"Well uh… Youcanshareitwithme…" Kagome said quickly. 'I can't believe I just said that!'
"What was that Kagome?" Inuyasha asked with his ears facing her.
Kagome took a deep breath "You can share the bed with me if you want. I'd hate to think of you sleeping on the couch…" Kagome said while making a ton of nervous gestures.
"Are you sure about this Kagome?"
"Yes."
"Okay I'll take you up on your offer."
Kagome felt elated yet at the same time extremely nervous. So she walked to her room with Inuyasha following soon after. She crawled into bed and rolled over on her side. Inuyasha crawled in and lay on his back looking at the ceiling. 'In this room there's a duck over there… and over there is a bowl…huh?' His attention was shifted to Kagome who had begun to shake in her sleep. He rolled over so he was behind her and wrapped his arms around her. He pressed his stomach against her back and buried his nose in her hair. He could smell fear on her. He wondered what could be so terrifying for her. He didn't have much time to think about it, because her scent changed from fear to calm. And that made Inuyasha quickly fall asleep curled up with Kagome.
The next day Kagome woke up at around her usual time but when she tried to move she felt something around her. At first she panicked but then remembered it was Inuyasha so she turned around as best she could and faced him, then snuggled into his chest, and fell back asleep. Since Inuyasha didn't have Kagome wake him up he too slept in. So the first ones up were Sango and Miroku.
Sango had made Miroku sleep on the floor because she didn't trust him in the bed with her. But when she woke up, there he was sleeping soundly next to her. Now Sango doesn't like it when people don't listen to her. So she decided to wake him up by kissing him and then giving him a surprise. She leaned over and placed a kiss on his lips, then placed his hands on her arms, so it would look like he grabbed her. Miroku was slowly rousing then he opened his eyes and there Sango was sleeping in a pair of boxers and s big t-shirt she had borrowed from Inuyasha. The shirt gave him quite the view. So when he opened his eyes for a better look Sango slapped him hard while yelling hentai. (Miroku is never a lucky one is he?)
Since the both of them were up they decided to see if Inuyasha and Kagome were up. So they wandered around and Miroku decided he'd make breakfast while Sango continued looking. She couldn't find Inuyasha, so she decided to go to Kagome's room and wake her up. When she opened the door she found Kagome and Inuyasha all curled up. 'Awwwww.' thought Sango. Then she saw Inuyasha with no shirt.
Then her anger kicked in.
"INUYASHA!" she bellowed. "You'd better get out of that bed this second!" Inuyasha was quickly woken up by an angered Sango standing above him with a chair. Inuyasha very quickly proceeded to run out of the room and lock himself in his own room. Kagome had somehow managed to sleep through this and was awakened by Sango shaking her.
"Kagome? Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?" Sango asked anxiously.
"Huh? What are you talking about Sango? Inuyasha helped me calm down last night. I had another one of those night terrors…"
"Oh… you had one of those again…What happened?"
"Well this time I was alone, every one of you guys were gone. Even my little girl was gone. And then suddenly there was Inuyasha he saved me from the darkness." Sango gave Kagome a big hug and said:
"Well Kagome Miroku and I both work today so we'll be leaving soon, thank you so much for having us over. Sometime soon you guys will have to come over to our place!"
"Okay Sango whatever you say." Kagome said with a smile.
Shortly after Sango and Miroku left, and Inuyasha crept out of his room with a terrified look on his face.
"What happened Inuyasha?" Kagome asked confused.
"Sango tried to kill me with a chair!" Inuyasha exclaimed.
"Oh is that all?" Kagome asked with a laugh.
"That's all!" Inuyasha asked while his voice cracked.
"Let me tell you how Sango and I met…"
Flash Back
It was the first day of high school and no one else from Kagome's old school had gotten into her high school. So she was completely alone. She wandered around looking at her feet when she bumped into someone. Looking up she saw a girl who was taller than her carrying a giant boomerang. 'Oh Shit!' Was what went through Kagome's mind. The taller girl began to bring the boomerang down at an amazing speed. And stopped right in front of Kagome's face. Kagome didn't flinch once.
"Seems I misjudged you. My name is Sango."
"Mine is Kagome."
"Let's be friends!"
