"Babe" the faint voice echoed in InuYasha's ear, as he opened his eyes he'd stare into the blurred darkness. Though he could see a figure, he couldn't make it out and due to him being drained of energy, his sense didn't seem to kick in properly. 'Kagome..?' he thought to himself, propping himself up with his elbow. It wasn't until he could see it was Kikyo standing over him in the darkness of his living room. "Kikyo? What are you doing here?" he asked rubbing his eye though he could clearly see her expression fall into disappointment. "So, am I not allowed to stop by?" she asked folding her arms, forming a small pout. InuYasha raised his brow while glancing to the digital clock near his television. "You stop by at three in the morning?" he questioned as he sat up, feeling the ache in his neck from sleeping awkwardly on the couch. "I don't see why the time should matter," she huffed placing herself beside him on the couch, resting her head on his shoulder "I do worry about my boyfriend you know." InuYasha didn't like to be rude but he pulled himself away from her, she looked to him in confusion. "Even though I messaged you every day since you left?" He pointed out; they had been able to see each other in the darkness at this point. "I'm sorry; I was caught up with work and this project." She looked sincere and slightly hurt, mainly because of the way he was acting. He knew it wasn't completely fair to her but he also didn't appreciate her late night invasions.

While InuYasha found himself more at ease he was about to mutter a small apology to her but before he knew it Kikyo was nuzzling into his neck, pecking along the way. "C'mon, not here," he muttered "Kai is in the next room." InuYasha knew that if Kai were to walk in, he'd eventually feel the wrath of Kagome. Not a pretty sight sometimes. Her breath hit his neck with a warm sensation, he closed his eyes in hope she'd stop seeing he had no interest; but she wasn't stupid. "We can be quiet." Kikyo practically whispered "It'll be exciting." She added. InuYasha shook his head wanting to push her away but didn't. He felt paralyzed by his own free will, with Kikyo kissing his neck and her hand traveling to other regions of his body. InuYasha shook with excitement. 'Damn it,' he thought, letting his head fall back. Kikyo found herself crawling onto his lap. "InuYasha," her voice panted "Kiss me." She finished. Automatically, he grasped her chin lightly and kissed her, violently.

'Why can't I ever say no to her…' he thought while kissing Kikyo, their bodies fell in motion moving together as one.

"Daddy?" squeaked from the darkness, startling both InuYasha and Kikyo; yet they remained frozen in place. 'Crap...' was all InuYasha was able to do for a moment before Kai spoke out once again. "Daddy, are you there?" Kai called out, yawning halfway through. InuYasha couldn't be more happy that they kept the lights off and their clothing on. InuYasha pushed Kikyo aside from his lap so he could tend to his sleepy son. The small figure stood in the doorway of the bedroom, lazily. "Daddy's right here." InuYasha spoke to Kai, picking him up and feeling Kai instantly fall limp with exhaustion. Cracking a smile InuYasha glanced to the couch to see a disappointed Kikyo. Kikyo wasn't always a princess but when it came to their sex life, she wanted it to exciting. Yet with a child present, sometimes that was impossible.

The following morning Kai woke up bright and early, though once again he'd find his dad sleeping on the couch but with Kikyo lying against his chest; he'd assured that his dad woke up along with him. InuYasha of course had not minded since he enjoyed every moment with his son. "Kikyo, do you want to watch cartoons with me?" Kai looked up at Kikyo, who looked back down at him; she smiled at the young half demon child. "Let me get some coffee and then I'll join you." Kikyo responded and Kai sprinted off to turn on his favorite Sunday morning cartoons. InuYasha had been in the kitchen making breakfast for Kai, Kikyo and himself.

The morning had passed by quickly, like every Sunday would. The rest of the day was spent by watching cartoons, playing demon slayer and enjoying quality father, son time. Yet they knew that five o'clock rolls around that Kagome would arrive to pick Kai up and take him home with her. It was odd though because Kagome normally called InuYasha at noon to assure they'd be ready by five. 'It's not like her to forget' he thought to himself as he sprawled out on the floor with Kai and his few scattered toys. "Daaad." Kai breaking InuYasha's attention from his thoughts, they looked at one another with question in their eyes for second or two before InuYasha made a face at Kai, sending him in a fit of giggles. "Dad, you're weird." "Oh, I'm weird?" InuYasha teased as he and his son began to rough house "Well I guess that makes you weirder." InuYasha added tickling Kai's sides with his fists lightly. "Hahaha, Na! Uh!" Kai spoke between his laughter.

InuYasha caught out of the corner of his eye Kikyo disappear onto the balcony with her phone glued to her ear and she seemed irritated; he shrugged it off. She sometimes seemed more into her work than anything else. InuYasha and Kai continued their rough housing which was always a bit more extreme since they were both harnessing demon abilities; Kai being small was still strong and slowly learning. Yet, it wasn't long before there was a light knock on the front door. "I can only assume it's your mom." InuYasha grunted as he got up from the floor, Kai immediately starting picking up his toys.

Opening the door, he didn't expect to his older half-brother Sesshomaru standing before him instead of Kagome. "Yeah, was not expecting you to be here." InuYasha stated as they looked at one another, the two never really seeing eye to eye but were blood either way; no matter how they both detested the fact. "Yes, I'm here for Kai." Sesshomaru entered as InuYasha stepped back, giving him space to enter. "No, Kagome is supposed to be picking him up." InuYasha interjected, Kagome hadn't mentioned anything about Sesshomaru picking Kai up. "Yes well, she had to work a double shift." Sesshomaru standing over InuYasha, he glanced in Kai's direction "She thought it'd be nice for Kai to see Rin since she's returned from her vacation." Sesshomaru finished. "Uncle!" Kai shrieked, Kai adored Sesshomaru which was also one of the few reasons why InuYasha and Sesshomaru found ways to put up with one another.

"Is mommy with you?" Kai asked standing beside InuYasha, while Sesshomaru shook his head. "No, you're coming with me to see Rin until mommy gets off work." Kai gleamed with excitement. "Go get your stuff, buddy." InuYasha smiled, nudging Kai in the direction of the one bedroom. As soon Kai disappeared, InuYasha sighed "I don't understand why I couldn't just keep him till she gets off." InuYasha mentioned, irritated with Kagome and her stupid change of plans. "Again, Rin's returned from vacation." Sesshomaru repeating himself and as he was opening his mouth to speak again, they'd be interrupted by the backdoor open and Kikyo walking through to be greeted with Sesshomaru's gleam. She stopped moving for just a second before gesturing a light wave and disappearing into the kitchen. "Well, it is a good thing I came in place of Kagome." InuYasha glared at his brother.

"Ready! I'm ready." Kai grunted dragging his overnight bag to the front door. Sesshomaru gestured to take it from Kai, allowing the young boy to say goodbye to his dad. They embraced for a moment; Kai wrapped his arms around InuYasha's neck. "You be good, and have fun." InuYasha told Kai, not wanting to let go. "I will dad." Once they released one another, Sesshomaru and InuYasha simply nodded at one another before going separate ways. Kai bounced the entire way to the car. InuYasha had already felt his gut knot together as he missed his son.

'Damn it Kagome, can't you trust me a little more.' He thought plopping onto the couch, letting his head hang back. He sensed Kikyo making her way towards him but not with intentions she normally had, instead she began to message his shoulders. "So," she started while applying pressure onto his shoulder blades "Why did Sesshomaru pick Kai up?" asking curiously. "I guess Kagome had to work a double today," InuYasha said shrugging the rest off. "Oh." was all that escaped from Kikyo's lips as she continued to massage him. "And she didn't let you know?" She added, InuYasha just shook his head. They both fell silent, the house peaceful and serene; InuYasha wasn't completely happy with the new atmosphere. "Well, she shouldn't be so careless." Kikyo threw in, jabbing at Kagome. "You should know these things ahead of time." "Kikyo, don't." InuYasha interjected before she could dig herself into a deeper hole.

Kikyo huffed lightly in defeat.

An hour after Kai left, Kikyo left as well with having work in the morning and just being disappointed with InuYasha acting as though Kagome wasn't carless. InuYasha did not care for the extra conflict. InuYasha spent the rest of his Sunday watching television and sipping on some sake that he's had for some time; savoring the bottle as best he could. He'd lazily watch show after show while channel surfing hoping he'd pass out. That was moment his phone had started to go off with a upbeat ringtone.

Reaching for the phone, he'd catch a glance at who was calling. Though answer before they hung up. "InuYasha, you didn't give Sesshomaru the folder." Kagome stated bluntly on her end, he'd plopped his head into the couch, "You knew I needed it by today." She continued. "Stop nagging okay." He growled, it partially being the sake "You don't have to remind me of everything I've screwed up on." "InuYasha that's not-" she started but he cut her off "Just don't, I'll give you the damn paperwork tomorrow." He huffed "Bye." He ended the call, knowing he was being a complete jack ass but he was just flustered. 'I needed that paperwork…InuYasha why can't you do anything right…' he mocked her in his mind, exaggerating on some areas but could care less.

For a moment InuYasha glanced at the phone, thinking Kagome would text him expressing how hurt she was, how much of dick he was being; yet nothing. Kagome was never one to grovel in an argument. "Stubborn woman." He grumbled, pushing himself off the couch, shutting off the television and going to his room. With work in the morning and a minor hangover awaiting him, he'd just pass out the minute he'd hit the bed.
