Tainted Silver
- Chapter 9 -
A/N: Slower updates… High School. Thank you for your reviews. They are AWESOME!
A rather wired Rin made her way from breakfast back into her mother's room quietly. She opened the door and closed it, being careful not to make a sound. Her feet were silent as she walked to the bed and poked Shippou.
"Shippou," she whispered.
He only grumbled and turned over so she poked him again.
"What?"
"Rin has a plan," she giggled sneakily.
Shippou's eyes widened immediately.
"Are we hurting someone?," he demanded with a scowl.
"No silly! We're getting mom and dad to have lots of sex so that we can have a brother or sister!"
"Oh," replied Shippou with a fierce blush.
"Are you with us or not?," she asked with a frown.
"Us?"
"Souta, Kohaku, and Rin. We want a bigger family."
"Why don't you ask Sango and Miroku to get you a sister?," inquired Shippou as he bounced off the bed.
"Rin wants a sister Shippou, not a cousin!"
"Oh."

"Those kids are up to something," grumbled Miroku in the kitchen.
"No doubt," said Sango with a smile.
"Thing is," stated Sesshomaru, "that they're not talking. They're writing and then disposing of the evidence with fire."
"Fire?!"
"Fire."
The kids ran in with handfulls of paper, giggling maliciously, and they stuck said paper under the oven. They watched the papers turn into black ashes before their eyes before leaving.
"Like I told you. Fire."
Sango grinned.
"At least I know it doesn't involve me or Miroku. It's all about you and Kagome."
Sesshomaru glared at her through narrowed eyes and left quickly.
"I'll find out if it kills me," he growled.
"It'll kill ya alright," muttered Miroku.
"Do you know anything?," Sango asked Miroku quickly.
Miroku showed her two fingers intertwined with each other. Sango burst into fits of laughter.
"Those kids are evil!"
"No, they just want siblings."

Minutes later Rin walked in with a scowl on her face.
"What's wrong Rin?"
"Miroku, Rin wants to know something."
"Alright… Shoot," he said taking a sip from his warm coffee.
"Babies come from making sex, right?"
Miroku let go of the coffee and yelped as he jumped off his seat. Sango laughed and pointed at him.
"You were so close to not making babies!," she giggled.
Miroku glared.
"I'll let Sango answer you because I have to go change," he said pointedly.
"Sango?"
"Y-Yeah, they do," she stuttered.
"Rin wants to know what sex is then."
Sango stuttered and stumbled over various objects in the kitchen.

Kagome groaned, a little light headed, and pulled herself away from the warmth of the bed. She passed a comb through her hair, leaving it soft and shiny, and pulled on a light kimono. She felt like time was passing by quickly and she was just standing there in front of a mirror. She sighed and left the room, for once not bothering to make her bed. She slipped into the kitchen and everybody was gone. She looked out the window and noticed them all outside bickering. She frowned when Sango threw herself at Miroku. However, she couldn't stiffle a giggle when Kohaku and Souta jumped on them both.
'Great. I missed breakfast and all the fun.'
She picked up a pan and looked for the bread Sango had made the day before. She grinned and got out a bottle that looked suspiciously like honey. She opened it and, sure enough, it was honey. She grinned and put the bread on the pan on top of the stove. She looked at the cold coffee in a pot and stuck that on the stove top also. Satisfied she looked for a plate and a spoon.
"It smells like something is burning for crying out-!"
She whirled around and found her bread was smoking a little.
"Crap, crap, crap, crap!"
She looked around frantically for something to flip the bread and found nothing. She whined and tried to flip it with her hands. She flipped it with success, burning herself in the process.
"Damn it," she cursed looking at her red fingers.
"You should be more careful."
She turned around and found that, again, she was staring at a familiar set of clothes.
"Sneaky."
"Let me see."
"No," she said defensively.
He narrowed his eyes at her. She lifted her head, slightly shaking from the look he was giving her. The bread, now on another side, started to smoke once again.
"The bread," she exclaimed.
He turned and picked up the pan, deposited said bread on her plate, and caught her before she ran all in record time. She hung her head in silent resignation.
"Let me see," he demanded.
"Why?"
"Because I don't need you getting sick with infection and what not while you're here."
"Well this wouldn't be a problem if I was back home!," she mocked.
He ignored her and grasped her hand in his own.
"Why in the world would you flip the damn bread with your fingers?"
She turned away, ignoring him. Suddenly her fingers were wet.
"ARE YOU SUCKING ON MY FINGERS?!"
"No you imbecile. I stuck them in water."
He turned to her and almost laughed. Her eyes were wide, her face was flushed, and her heart was racing. He grinned.
"Why? Do you want me to suck on your fingers?"
"N-No!"
"No, she wants you upstairs right now damnit," barked Souta.
Kagome paled quickly.
"Where'd you hear that!?"
"Sango yelled that at Miroku last night," commented Kohaku as he passed by into the household.
Kagome fainted and Sesshomaru caught her, naturally. He closed his eyes with a sigh and turned to leave.
"Have lots of sex!," screamed Rin.
Sesshomaru tensed as everybody started snickering behind him.
"This is getting tiresome," he growled.

"Kohaku?"
"Yeah?," asked Kohaku listlessly.
"Let's run."
"Gotcha."

..::Dream Start::..
She reached up and touched the soft silver hair in front of her.
'InuYasha?'
Her hand touched the shoulder of the unknown and he turned to face her. His golden eyes glittered with emotions but his face and stance held none.
"Sesshomaru?," she whispered.
His hands cupped her face in a gesture of tenderness. She blushed confused yet not at the same time. It felt familiar for some strange reason.
"Sess-."
"Sh," he quieted softly, gently, and almost lovingly, "don't say a thing."
He traced her lips with his thumb and she couldn't tear her gaze away from his hypnotic eyes. Before she could blink, his arms were around her waist and pulling her towards him. He touched his forehead to her own with his eyes closed. She felt utterly confused. Since when did Sesshomaru show affection towards her? Apart from that, however, she felt that this was Sesshomaru without the walls he built around himself and his emotions.
Part of her wanted to give in to the warmth of his arms, the other still demanded to know what had happened. She ignored that part of her and laid her cheek against his chest, her eyes closed. She could almost feel his heartbeat and for a moment she felt that they shared that heartbeat.
"Kagome."
"No," she whimpered, "not now."
"Kagome?"
She gripped the fabric that covered his chest tightly, refusing to let go.
"Kagome!"
..::Dream End::..
She stood up, stock still.
"What?," she questioned, confused.
"Let go of Sesshomaru," Sango snickered.
Kagome looked up and squeaked in embarrassment. The man, somehow, was on the floor with her on top of him and he looked to be on the verge of turning blue.
"S-Sorry," she stuttered quickly.
"Kagome!"
"What?!," she snapped.
"Get off him before the kids find-."
The footsteps of said kids suddenly sounded in the hallway. Kagome scrambled up and onto the bed under the covers.
"Find what?," asked Souta, looking around.
"Sango and Miroku again?," asked Kohaku over his shoulder.
"Daddy's in here though," Rin giggled.
"There are such things as-."
"Kohaku," warned Sesshomaru.
"Maybe Sesshomaru walked in on them!"
Everybody turned to glare at Souta, except Rin and Kohaku. All of them turned, however, when the lump on the bed giggled. Kohaku and Souta exchanged surprised glances.
"I think Sango and Miroku walked in on Sesshomaru. This is his room after all," Kohaku whispered.
The giggling ceased at the words. Kagome popped up with a murderous glare.
"Guys?," asked Rin.
"Yeah?"
"Run."
"Gotcha."
Both darted out of the room before Kagome had the chance to throw back the covers. She didn't make it past Sesshomaru, however. He grabbed her by the waist and she ended up crushed against his chest.
"I told you!," yelled Kohaku from the stairs.
Souta laughed insanely as he ran after Kohaku. Kagome was plainly frozen against Sesshomaru and he was feeling damn good that morning.
"Relax, will you? You seemed alright with screaming my name out and gripping onto me a minute ago," he commented smugly.
Kagome's face rivaled that of the color red for it's position as she avoided everybody's eyes. Rin, however, thought that maybe that meant that she was getting a sibling or two soon.
"You had sex!," she yelled pointing at them accusingly.
"Kami," Kagome mumbled into Sesshomaru's shirt.
"And," she added, "I'm getting a sister!"
Miroku laughed and Sango tried to hold back. Sesshomaru had a strange look on his face and Kagome couldn't find any way to dig herself deeper into the man in front of her so that she could disappear.
"Where did these kids learn about all of this?!," she demanded.
Sango responded by pointing to Miroku.
"He said it was best to teach them before they learned it elsewhere," Sango said with a glare, "and this was before we got cursed. He encouraged them to get girlfriends and 'experiment'."
"Oh… Sesshomaru?"
"Hai?"
"You can let go now."
Sango stiffled a laugh with her hand and looked the other way.
"Why? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Sango whirled around and shot him a surprised look. She was certainly not expecting that to come from Sesshomaru. In her eyes, Kagome had just become a love candidate for Sesshomaru and there would be bloody hell in the household until they both fell in love with each other and did all the crap they never tell you about in the 'Little Mermaid' and 'Cinderella'.
"Say, do you want to go swimming Kagome?"
A/N: Oh, don't kill me. I don't own Inu & Co. nor do I own any of Disney's movies. Much slower updates because I'm whirling with how to put them together romantically and stuff. That and I have my sophomore year! And, maybe, the addition of a job. That and I seem to post these and then give them to my beta-reader…
