Hi! This is a new author speaking! This is my first fic, so please, if you don't like it, that's cool. And if you do, then that's awesome. I would like reviews, probably all kinds, so review please! Tips are appreciated!

On with the first Chapter:

Chapter 1

It was Wednesday morning, and Kagome had gotten home around 11:30 the night before hanging with her friends. They practically dragged her out of her house as soon as she walked in from the well house. It had been a tiring week, and so far, Kagome hadn't really had a break. With all the shards to collect, and fighting with a hot-tempered hanyou, she was just a wee bit tired.

"Kagome dear, wake up!" Kun-Loon, Kagome's mom said yet once again for the mornings record.

"URRGG!" Kagome moaned. She really didn't see a reason to bother getting up and going to school anymore. If she wasn't hardly ever there except maybe once every three weeks, then there really wasn't a point.

"Mom, could you come here for a minute please!" Kagome half-yelled still stomach down on her bed with her face almost completely swallowed by the pillow. (picture that. it's funny right?)

"Yes?" Kun-Loon said suddenly appearing.

"Mom," she started, "Is there really a point in me going to school anymore? I mean, I'm hardly ever here anyway."

"Well..." she paused knowing exactly what Kagome was getting at. "I guess not. But, it's your choice, you can keep trying to live a double life like you have been, or, you can quit school and not have any of that kind of pressure anymore." she simply said.

There was a pause as Kagome was trying to wake up enough to register what her mother just said.

"I wouldn't want to go back to school." Kun-Loon said winking and walking out the bedroom door.

All Kagome could do was smile at how, (as Kagome thought), she had an awesome mom who understood everything. She was indeed an awesome mom. She was always so cheerful and happy.

'What a great mom.' Kagome thought while trying to go back to sleep.

"I've got you now, you stupid hanyou." A certain demon-child said to himself.

Shippo and InuYasha had figured out a way to entertain themselves while Kagome was gone. And since InuYasha was starting to be somewhat like a 'father-figure' for Shippo, they started playing games such as Hide-and-Seek. As they were now.

'Dang' InuYasha thought, 'That kid is getting good at hiding from my nose.' Of course all InuYasha was doing was simply walking around, figureing that he could just pick up Shippo's scent without really seeking for him. He just wanted to nice enough to Shippo to at least get a praise from Kagome, if not, maybe even a little kiss.

"Shippo!" InuYasha yelled, "Come out already, I'm getting hungry!" InuYasha was lying because they had had lunch not too long ago.

"InuYasha-sha you're-re always-s hungry-y." Shippo said somehow making his voice echo through the trees.

When Shippo started talking InuYasha spun around only to see nothing and hear Shippo's echos all around him, making him have some sort of expression on his face.

Shippo couldn't help but giggle to himself.

"Show yourself!" InuYasha yelled playfully.

Shippo was readying himself for the right moment to jump on InuYasha when he was in the perfect spot for it. As soon as InuYasha walked into Shippo's 'trap', Shippo launched himself off of the tree branch.

"Gotchya!" Shippo yelled as he jumped onto the somewhat suspecting hanyou. While he landed on InuYasha, he reached and yanked one of his ears.

"OW!" InuYasha yelled, "You little twerp!"

"Na na-na na na!" Shippo sang running as fast as he could from the angry hanyou.

Circles, zig-zags, or very sharp turns seemed to be Shippo's advantages in almost any of their races. Shippo ran in a straight line just long enough to let InuYasha on his heels, the he turned right very sharply. Hearing a thud from InuYasha's feet twisting under him, making him collapse, Shippo turned around to see an angry twisted InuYasha on the ground. Shippo took in the scene for about two second before collapsing himself holding his stomach from laughing.

Still laughing, he began to notice the grounds absents. Opening his eyes and looking at the ground that was feet below him, he suddenly stopped laughing and slowly turned his head to see two giant yellow orbs inches from his face.

InuYasha smirked at how Shippo gulped. And he thought to himself, 'Man, better not hurt the runt, or I'll get sat big-time by Kagome.'

Instead of whomping the little demon on the head, InuYasha said, "Gotchya." in such a way that made Shippo shiver.

Hanging there staring at the scary-looking hanyou, Shippo tried to figure out what he was going to do next. Before he knew it he was suddenly back on the ground with InuYasha tickling him.

"In-u-ash-a! St-op! Ple-ease!" Shippo cried between laughs and breaths.

"NO! You little runt! You're getting the treatment now! Mwhahaha!" InuYasha yelled playfully and evilly.

"Awe! InuYasha is being so nice!" Sango said to the monk beside her in the bushes. They were spying on InuYasha and Shippo by Kagome's orders. Kagome had told them to tell her if InuYasha hurt Shippo in any way. They had more than agreed. One being because they thought it would be fun to spy on them. Two being because they thought it more fun to see InuYasha get sat for stupid stuff.

"In-u-asha, I can't bre-eath!" Shippo tried through gasps of air. InuYasha stopped and jut stared at Shippo not helping but wondering what it would be like to tickle Kagome. He couln't do much from the smile spreading across his face at the thought. And while coming back to the real-world, he also smile at the kitsune regulate his breathing to normal.

Shippo finally slowed his breathing while lying on the ground looking at the sky.

"Thanks InuYasha," Shippo said cutting the silence.

"For?" InuYasha asked, slightly confused.

"This." Shippo said, still looking at the sky.

"You mean for making you hurt yourself?" InuYasha asked sarcasticly.

"No." Shippo simply said with a little smile on his face. "For making me have fun and laugh like that since my father died, it really means alot to me."

Looking at the demon-child, not knowing what to say, stood up.

"C'mon," InuYasha started, "We need to get back before the Miroku and Sango come looking for us.

"Okay." Shippo said walking behind his newly adopted father.

InuYasha really began to feel good about how Shippo had accepted him as his new dad, and how good he felt for making Shippp happy. He couldn't help but wonder if that was what it felt like to be a father.

"Shippo." InuYasha said.

"Yeah?"

Nervously, "You know how you call Kagome mom?" InuYasha asked.

"Yeah, what about it?" Shippo said looking up.

"Um..Well.. If you want.. You can start calling me dad." InuYasha said.

"REALLY!" Shippo squealed. "I've been calling you that to myself, and was going to ask you if I could start calling you that!" Shippo cried, eyes sparkling.

"Yeah, go for it." InuYasha said, hiding a smile.

"YAY!" The kitsune yelled.

Smiling and walking back to the village with his new 'son', InuYasha decide he liked this feeling of being a father.

"We better get back before they do and them know we were spying on them." Sango said crawiling out of the bushes.

"I've got a better idea." Miroku said grinning mischeivously.

"No." Sango said with a stern look on her face.

"Oh alright." Miroku said. He really wanted to see Sango laugh like that when he tickled her.

Getting up and wiping grass off, Miroku looked up to find Sango was gone.

"Sango?"

"Down here." She said pulling him down and climbing on top of him.

"Well Well." Miroku said, thinking on different lines than Sango was.

"ATTACK!" Sango yelled while tickling the monk furiously.

Laughing at himself for being caught off guard, and because Sango was tickling him, he suddenly grabbed Sango the first chance he got and grabbed Sango and flipped her to where they were in opposite position, pinning Sango's wrists to the ground.

Smirking at himself for making Sango's face as it was with confusion, he said,"Now the attack is on you, my dear." He said it in such a way to make Sango blush.

He was just about to let go of her wrists to tickle her, when a brilliant idea washed over him. He smiled down at her, leaning in so their faces were just inches apart and said, "Now for the kill." And with that he leant the rest of the way down to kiss the entrance of their own world.
