Family Dinner!
Well hello everyone! Here is the update I said you would get from me. I do hope you all like this chapter. Its not much but due to my trailer moving in Monday I am tryin to give y'all somethin before I lose track and get busy unpackin everythin. So please enjoy. Thanks to those who reviewed it makes me happy!
I had the girls ready for the dinner Izayoi demanded her husband make us have. I smiled as my girls wore identical dresses for the dinner. It was so interesting to see what they wanted to wear. The last time Saori wanted to dress alike Kaori bit her. Then it was an all out war.
I smiled as I did their hair. Saori told me to do it alike but not alike. So I did side braids but on different sides. I enjoyed styling their hair with it being so long and the fact that its the same shade as their Daddy's. Once done the girls ran down to Sesshomaru and showed off how pretty they were. I smiled at my handy work and went to Sesshomaru's side.
"Alright in the car. Last time we were late I heard Grandma go on for hours. An seeing how Grandma InuKimi will be there I really don't want to be late." Sesshomaru said and kissed the side of my head. I smiled at him and then went to pick Saori up to carry. Sesshomaru gave me a dirty look and I stuck my tongue out at him.
We got the girls in the car and pulled out of the drive and headed for his parents house. "Rin I don't..." I held my hand up and looked at him. "Sesshomaru, I'm pregnant not dying. I can carry our thirty pound children that never gain weight. It won't kill me." I said as I smiled at him. He glared and then let the subject go for now.
I sighed and looked out the window, and smiled as I seen the main house come into view. Sesshomaru pulled up and turned the car off. We both got out and got the girls out. Just to prove my point to Sesshomaru, I carried Saori to the door. He wasn't happy but he could tell that I wasn't going to prop my feet up twenty-four, seven. Sesshomaru let us in and we set the girls on the floor and before we knew it they had tackled their Uncle to the floor.
I giggled at the sight and then was pulled into a hug by Kagome. She smiled and then smiled at my stomach which for some reason made me blush. Izayoi came running to us and pulled me into a hug and before we knew it she was crying. I looked panicked and finally Inuyasha and InuTashio pulled her off. I sighed and then took a deep breath.
"Hello Grandmother." I looked up to see both girls standing straight and using prefect speech. I looked up to see InuKimi coming over to us. I had only met the woman once and that was a year ago today. I bowed to her and she said nothing. "Hello girls." She said with out looking. I looked at Sesshomaru and then back at the girls with a smile.
They smiled at me and they both went to their Uncle and Kagome. "Grandpa is it time to eat? Daddy starved us all day!" They said with giggles. InuTashio looked at Sesshomaru and then laughed. "Girls please you both eat more their Uncle Inuyasha. If you two calmed down some then maybe your Mommy could put weight on you two." He said as he carried them both to the dinning hall.
I smiled when I heard the girls giggle more and then I saw they went to their seats at the table and waited. I sat down next to Saori out of habit and Kaori was between Inuyasha and Kagome. She offered to switch spots but Kagome refused knowing that Saori loved her Uncle.
InuTashio brought the up the subject of the baby. InuKimi didn't say a word as I told them that I had just found out the yesterday and if it weren't for Kagome I probably would know today. "I assume you made an appointment for the doctor to check on my Grandchild?" InuKimi asked. I nodded my answer to her. "I assume you will also be sure to find out the sex of the child and inform us as soon as you know when you go for your fifth month exam, correct?" She asked.
I was about to answer her when Sesshomaru decided to make himself known to the table. "Rin and I have agreed to not tell anyone what the baby is. In fact we plan to have it a surprise for even us. We will also not be telling anyone the names. This is between us and the girls. Once the baby is born then everyone else can be involved." He said to her. I squeezed his hand and smiled.
"Sesshomaru how do you plan on us to prepare for this pup if we do not know what it will be?" When InuKimi started the pressure of trying to control my pregnancy it started to hurt a little. I wanted to enjoy it not have it question. Then it clicked, the girls birth mother was only with Sesshomaru for his money. But I was truly in love with the man.
"Mother there is no need for worry. Rin and I have it all worked out. We don't need baby things due to Izayoi being a hoarder and keeping the cribs and such after the girls were born. An if I remember correctly everything was unisex." He said to his mother putting her in her place. "I am not a hoarder." Izayoi said under her breath. I heard two giggles and looked at the girls.
InuKimi shot them glares and they silenced. I pouted and then I turned when I heard a growl. Sesshomaru was a little unhappy with the way his mother was acting. I sighed and squeezed his hand and he calmed down. "With all due respect Lady InuKimi this is Sesshomaru and I's child. I am pretty sure we can handle it on our own. An if we need help then we will ask for it. But as a nurse who worked with pregnant women and such I thing I know what I can and can't do." I said to her and then went back to eating my meal.
Everyone else saw this as a good idea and followed. Nothing more was said on the mater of our unborn child. How can I make her see that I am not a gold digger like Sesshomaru's last wife? I locked away my thoughts and went back to the new conversation at hand. Basketball. I was listening to Inuyasha explain a move to Kaori.
I looked to see disgust on InuKimi face. I ignored it and went back to listening to Inuyasha explain more into detail. "Daddy?" She asked. Sesshomaru gave her his full attention. "Can I play basketball next year?" She asked. Sesshomaru was silent for a minute. "As long as your grades are good and they have the program." He said to her. That was it for InuKimi because before we knew it she was slaming her hands in the table and stood up.
Sesshomaru wasn't the one to put her in her place this time. "InuKimi sit down. Sesshomaru and Rin have managed just fine raising these girls. They can do what they please and if they said they can do it then it is none of your business how they raise them as long as they do it right." InuTashio said to her. Not once to her raise his voice but no matter how you look at it he was not someone to mess with and make angry.
InuKimi sat down and stayed silent for the rest of the meal. Saori was going on and on about how when school starts again they will have to start doing homework again. We all except one laughed at her and then we finished the meal. The girls were tired and so was I. We said bye and telling them we would see them for Christmas in a couple of days.
We put the girls in the car and they were out. I smiled at them and then at Sesshomaru. "Rin, I am sorry that my..." I squeezed his hand and smiled. "Its alright. She has never liked me very well. I have just grown to get use to it." I said to him. He nodded and then kissed my hand. I smiled more and then leaned my head back and watched as it snowed.
Finally after thirty minutes of driving in the snow we made it home. Sesshomaru parked in the gurage and we got the sleeping girls out and carried them to bed. I changed their clothes out and put pj's on them and then kissed them goodnight. I found Sesshomaru on the floor sitting. I sat next to him and leaned my head on his shoulder. "Tired?" I asked.
Sesshomaru chuckled and the and then kissed the top of my head. "Come one lets go to bed." He said and carried me to our room. I smiled as he put me down on the floor in front of my closet. It kissed his cheek and then got a nighty on and went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth and washed my face.
After I was done I made my way to bed and didn't even take the time to pull the blankets back and then I was out. I thought I felt as if someone had place me under the covers and then pulled me to them. But I couldn't really tell with how tired I was.
The next morning I awoke way to early for my own good, but I was indeed under the blankets and Sesshomaru had me wrapped in his arms. I smiled but before I could do anything else I was back out and into dream world again with a smile on my face.
I know its short but its better then nothin if you ask me. :) Anyway if you feel the need to review then please do. Thanks to those who read my stories!
