A/N: Before you get into this chapter, I'm letting you know that I was writing what came to mind. I hope you all enjoy it! Thanks to all the people who favorite or follow! I LOVE YOU GUYS! 3 I hope you enjoy the randomness of my mind!
"Yay, Ice cream!" I exclaimed happily, ignoring the glances I got from other people. "Thank you Kagome!"
"I didn't know you liked ice cream so much." She replied.
"The only way I'd understand if someone didn't like ice cream is if their lactose intolerant, or if milk gave them a stomach ache."
"Isn't that the same?" Yuka asked me.
"I don't think so. I'm not lactose intolerant, but milk gives me a stomach ache sometimes… but there's also so much variety! Vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, banana, mint, mint and chocolate chips, pistachio, chocolate chip cookie dough, royal fudge, cookies and cream, blue moon, marshmallow, rocky road, chocolate and peanut butter, caramel, chubby hubby, hockey pokey, green tea, raspberry, sea salt, Neapolitan, (breathe) mint Oreo, black and tan, chocolate almond, chocolate fudge, daiquiri, fudge brownie, German chocolate, coconut, sherbet, cotton candy, rum raisin, lemon custard, bourbon, chocolate with marshmallows, caramel praline cheesecake, triple chocolate, dulce de leche, salted caramel, Boston cream pie, cherry, chocolate cream and fudge,(breathe) cinnamon bun, toffee, coffee, New York super fudge chunk, peanut brittle, red velvet, triple caramel chunk, s'mores, lemon, pineapple, honey, Boston cream pie, banana split, buttersco-"
"We get it, we get it! Now breathe!"
I took in a couple of deep breathes, just then realizing I had only breathed about three times.
"Sorry. I got carried away." I apologized.
"…You said Boston cream pie twice." Ayumi mentioned.
"I did? Oh wow. "
"Have you tasted all of those flavors?" Eri asked.
"I wish! If only I had that much money to spend on ice cream!"
"If only my parents would let me eat that much!" Eri replied.
"If only it didn't go straight to my thighs!" Kagome said, jumping in.
"If only I didn't get brain freeze!" Yuka chuckled.
"If only it wouldn't make us break out!" Ayumi said.
We laughed as we walked down the street.
"Ah! My ice cream's melting!" I cried.
"You should have eaten it instead of naming all those flavors." Kagome scolded.
"I'm not going down without a fight!" I said before going to war with the ice cream in the cone.
"Anyway, tell us about that boyfriend of yours Kagome!"Ayumi said.
I nearly chocked on the ice cream. I had to go to bushes and cough up the chocolaty goodness.
"You haven't told Kazumi about your boyfriend?" Eri asked.
"Ooo, Kagome! What else have you been hiding from her?" Yuka teased.
"Are you talking about InuYasha?" I asked her.
"Well, you see…" Kagome started.
Why did I even ask? I already knew this! I watched the anime gosh darn it! Maybe I was just having such a great time that I forgot? I wasted that ice cream for nothing…
"She has a two-timing, good for nothing boyfriend!" Ayumi exclaimed, getting the attention of the passer byers.
"Shhh!" Kagome said as she walked faster. "He's not all that bad. He helps me when I really need it, and he's not bad company…"
"The fact that he's two-timing you should be a huge turnoff though." Eri stated.
"He's not a bad guy. I mean, everyone has their faults." Kagome defended.
"You've seen InuYasha? No fair!" Eri cried.
"He's dense, brash, and stupid all at the same time sometimes." I added, ignoring Eri's comment.
"Well, Sesshomaru's cold hearted, apathetic, and mean!"
I choked on the rest of my ice cream. This time, it was validated.
"Who's Sesshomaru?" Ayumi asked.
"Don't worry about it!" I called out from my bush.
"Why don't you want us knowing about him?" Eri asked me. "What's going on?"
"DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!" I basically yelled.
"Sesshomaru and Kazumi are basically married!" Kagome told them.
"WHAT?!" the three girls asked in unison.
"Married? But you're only fifteen!" Yuka loudly whispered.
"What does his name even mean?" Ayumi asked.
"Don't worry-"
"Killing perfection." Kagome answered, interrupting my 'Don't worry about it.'
"Wow, that's a bit hardcore." Yuka replied.
"How old is he?"
"I don't know, 25?" Kagome guessed.
"How could you be married to a 25 year old?!" Eri asked me.
"He's not 25! He's around 21! And we're not married; it's more of an engagement!" I said as I came out of the bush.
Everything was quiet, and I thought about what I had just said. I felt my cheeks burn. I covered my face as the three girls started to crowd around me.
"What do you mean AROUND 21? You don't know his age?!" Yuka asked.
"A six year difference isn't that much…" Ayumi commented.
"How did you two meet?" Eri asked.
"He's turning 21 soon," I lied, "and we met through InuYasha." I said, bringing Kagome back into the spotlight.
"Eh?" she said out of surprise.
"Through InuYasha? How?" Ayumi asked.
"Well, when I first met him face-to-face, Kagome and InuYasha abandoned me with him!"
"What?!" Eri exclaimed, "How could you?"
"It was an accident, I swear!" Kagome said.
"Isn't it funny how Kazumi and Sesshomaru are going to settle down before Kagome and InuYasha, though they met after Kagome and InuYasha met?" Ayumi asked.
"Yeah, why is that?" Yuka reiterated.
"Umm…"
"Well…"
Kagome and I couldn't answer that without talking about demons and the feudal era…
"But I find it adorable how InuYasha is always saving you from trouble!" I said, trying to push the attention onto Kagome.
"It's TOO cute how you always calm down Sesshomaru!" Kagome replied, attempting to push the attention back on me.
"That's nothing compared to how you and InuYasha have such deep conversations!" I countered.
"Really? I have to turn away whenever Sesshomaru kisses you in public!" Kagome told.
"BUT the way you and InuYasha always call each other's' names is so romantic!"
"Romantic?! The way Sesshomaru carries you is the idled princess style!"
"But InuYasha gives you piggyback rides all the time!" I said back, not giving into Kagome's hard blows.
"The way you and Sesshomaru stargaze at night is a moment I wish I could have with InuYasha!"
"The way InuYasha worries about you when you're gone for too long kills my heart!"
"Well, when Sesshomaru gets possessive and protective over you, it's charming!"
"You know they're equally protective!"
"No they are not! Just like how you know he's a lot more possessive too! You didn't even mention that part!"
"Okay, maybe he's a little more protective than InuYasha…"
"A little? The man doesn't want you more than ten feet away from him!" Kagome replied.
"How do the two even know each other?" Ayumi asked us.
Kagome and I took time out of our battle, and faced the three girls that were watching us go back and forth.
"They're half-brothers." We said together.
"We didn't tell you all?" I asked.
"HALF-BROTHERS?!" the girls yelled.
Man, we were causing a scene. We were getting stares from other people, so we continued down the street until we were close to Kagome's home.
"Yeah. They have the same dad." Kagome explained.
"You never told us that InuYasha has a brother!" Yuka yelled at Kagome.
"I didn't?" Kagome asked.
"You know good and well that you didn't!" Eri said.
"Who's dating the older one?" Ayumi asked.
Kagome stared at me accusingly, and I looked at the ground before raising my hand slightly.
"No wonder he's ready to tie the knot!" Ayumi exclaimed.
"Well, since he's turning 21, and InuYasha's about 15. I'd assume…" Eri started.
"You don't have to be so mean!" Ayumi replied.
We called it a day after that. Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka went home, and Kagome and I went back to the shrine. There, Kagome changed, and then we went back out to buy supplies. Sota came along with us, asking me to tell him stories.
"I'll tell you the one about how I was thrown at the wall." I decided.
"Aww! I wanted to hear about how you got a hole in your chest!" Sota admitted.
"I can't tell you that one. You have to be at least 18."
"But you're 15!"
"Hey, I went through it, that doesn't count.
