Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. How many times have I said that? -ponders about it-

Chapter 13: Horsing Around a Bit

A while after everyone finished eating; Rin quickly went back inside the mansion to get something while Shippo hurried back into the pool, splashing everyone else as he jumped in. Sango and Kagome got up and walked over to the table to get another cup of soda as Inuyasha and Miroku stood up ready to get back in. With the guys facing away from Kagome and Sango, Kagome suddenly thought of doing something before they get back in the pool. She sat her cup down on the table and looked over at Sango.

"Hey Sango, I dare you to push Miroku in." she whispered.

"What! You gotta be kidding me! Why dare me to do such thing!" Sango questioned in a whisper.

"Oh c'mon, it'll be fun. I'll push Inuyasha in at the same time." Kagome looked over to see that they both were just about to jump in.

"Oh alright." She sighed and placed her cup down as they quietly walked up behind them trying not to make a sound.

Rin came back out with a small digital camera as she noticed what was going to happen. 'This'll be good.' She got closer to get a good shot.

Inuyasha's ears twitched as little as they crept up behind. Kagome counted to three with her fingers to let Sango know when to push; but just before three, Inuyasha quickly reached back and grabbed a hold of Kagome's wrist, swinging her in towards the pool as she held to him bringing him down as well.

Miroku blinked a little as Inuyasha and Kagome fell in and he felt a pair of hands push on his back. He quickly turned about as he started to fall towards the pool. "Oh no you don't." He smirked grabbing Sango's hand as she blushed a little when Miroku pulled her in close to him, both falling in.

Shippo and Rin were laughing uncontrollably. 'That was great!' Rin thought looking at the pictures she took of them. "Shippo come here!" She walked over to the pool to show him the pictures.

"Okay." He swimmed over to the edge of the pool where she was and pulled himself out of the water as she crouched down to show it to him. "Those are great!" he exclaimed.

"Yeah, I know." They rolled into another fit of laughter.

As the four surfaced, the girls moved away from the one's that pulled them in. Rin and Shippo looked over to where they were as everyone noticed the dark colored blush across Sango's face.

"Hey Sango, do you know that you're blushing?" Miroku said to see if she'll blush more as Rin took another picture and everyone else was laughing.

"Stop it!" she shouted and blushed more covering her face with her hands.

"Oh okay I will, but…" he leaned towards her and whispered. " You look cute when you blush." He smiled a little and backed away as she was a little shocked at what he just said and how it was said.

Kagome looked around and sweat dropped when she seen Rin and Shippo with the camera. "Uh…to make things better or worse…Rin ended up bringing the camera out…" She said getting Inuyasha's, Miroku's, and especially Sango's attention.

"Oh!" Inuyasha and Miroku looked over to them.

"Rin did what!" Sango uncovered her face and glanced over to Rin and Shippo.

"Uh-oh…" Rin felt a glare coming from Sango and knew that wasn't good, she quickly placed the camera behind her and tried giving an innocent look as everyone laughed.

"There better not be anything on the camera Rin." Sango warned.

"Uh…there isn't anything." Rin lied and headed off to put the camera away.

Sango climbed out of the pool and sighed as she walked back over to the table to get her drink as well with Kagome. Miroku swimmed over to where Shippo was, knowing that there was something on that camera.

"So what were the two of you laughing about?" Miroku questioned Shippo.

"Well as long as Sango or Kagome don't find out, it's that Rin got pictures of you all falling in."

"Oh really, I'll have to see them later."

"Yeah they're pretty funny, especially Sango's expressions."

"Great."

Sango and Kagome took their drinks and went to the far side of the pool and sat down on the edge. Sango was completely surprise and embarrassed at the same time as the blush across her face was still there.

"Take it easy Sango; he was only being friendly and playful." Kagome said trying to help.

"Yeah a little too much…Have you noticed that he's been hitting on me since last night?"

"In a way yes, but you know how guys are."

"Yeah pigs…"

"Exactly, but lets just put that aside and try to survive the month since you're the one that got us into it."

"You don't need to keep reminding me about it..." She sighed.

"Well lets go see what everyone else feels up to doing." Kagome said leaving her cup there on the side of the pool as she slid into the water and started swimming over to the others.

"Alright." Sango fallowed behind Kagome.

Rin came walking back out empty handed and jumped in next to where Shippo and Miroku were.

"So what do you all want to do now?" Kagome asked.

"Marco Polo or chicken fight?" Shippo said.

"I say chicken fight." Rin said.

"I'm in." Miroku said in a split second.

"Since we all seems to be on friendly terms for the moment, sure chicken fight sounds good." Kagome stated.

"Why not."

"Now it's all up to you, Sango." Rin said.

"Hmm…" She thought that if playing Marco Polo there would be a chance of getting groped, but then chicken fight Miroku would be too busy keeping some one up and wouldn't have the chance to. "Oh alright, I guess we could go with chicken fight..." She let out a small sigh.

"Okay!" everyone else said as they paired up; of course Rin on Shippo's shoulders, Kagome on Inuyasha's, and Sango on Miroku's.

"Don't worry, I won't be able to." Miroku said as her looked up to Sango, only to be able to see her cleavage as he locked his arms over and under her toned, well shaped, slender legs.

"Good, but don't look up either." She said as she sighed slightly and looked back ahead.

"Are you two ready yet?" Inuyasha questioned.

"Um, yeah." Miroku said as he walked over to where the others were waiting to play.

After the count of three, the girls were pushing each other any which way they could, but didn't get anywhere. Soon, Sango and Kagome got the same idea about getting Rin to go down first, while Rin just tried to push both at the same time. Within seconds, Rin was down easily as Sango and Kagome went at it. They both were quite strong and slightly matched, until Kagome got the upper edge and made Sango lean too far back and lost her balance as she and Miroku went down. Miroku quickly released Sango's legs as they both popped back up from the water as Inuyasha and Kagome were gloating.

"Up for another round?" Kagome asked at the four down.

"Sure am." They said getting back into position.

"Then lets go." Inuyasha said right before they begun once more.

Thirty minutes later:

"I'm done for today." Kagome said as she yawned a bit.

"Me too." Sango started over to the side of the pool, ready to get out.

"Well too much being in the sun and water isn't all that good, so heading in sounds like a good idea." Miroku said.

"Of course it isn't." Sango said as she already started to dry herself off with Kagome fallowing.

Everyone else got out of the pool and started to dry off. The girls wrapped the towel around their hair and put their robes back on. While the guys collected the trash up. The girls started towards the back porch as the guys fallowed right behind them.

Sango and Kagome let out a small yawn as they all reached the back door.

"The trash could go in those fifty gallon cans." Sango said as she opened the door.

"Freshen up if you want." Kagome said.

"Um, ok." Miroku said as he and the other two tossed whatever trash they carried into the can.

Sango and Kagome took the moment to start heading to their rooms to clean up as everyone walked inside.

"Well, that was fun." Rin said

"Yeah sure was." Shippo said.

"I'm off to shower." Inuyasha said walking off to his temporary room.

'A shower does sound good right now.' Rin thought.

"Would you mind showing me those pictures later, Rin?" Miroku asked really wanting to see them.

"Sure, just when Sango and Kagome ain't around." Rin stretched her arms out a little.

"Alright."

"I guess the rest of us should go freshen up some." Shippo said.

"Yeah, I don't like the feel of chlorine in my hair." Rin said starting to walk off.

"Okay then." The three walked up the stairs and went the direction that their rooms where in.

As Rin and Shippo headed down to their room they started talking about how things were going now between the others.

"Well so far so good for the most part." Rin said.

"Yeah so far, but it's going to be a real challenge."

"I know, at least we have quite some time to get this to happen."

"Just because they got along once, who knows how often it will be."

"So true, as long as they don't hate each other with a passion; although in a way they do."

"This is going to be as fun as a sitcom, but just seen in person." The two laughed as they got to Shippo's room.

"That's a good way of putting it. Well, I'll let you go now, so I could shower." Rin continued down to her room.

"Okay." He went in his room.

Ok here is where I'll end this chapter. Small? I know. I would really like it if any of you could toss out different ideas of what I should do in future chapters; it would help and be appreciated for it. Well I don't really have much more to say but once I get an idea of where the next chapter to go at, I'll start working on it right away. One more thing, if any of you have been fallowing up on my other stories, I've just updated them as well. Well bai bai and I'll write more again.
