Preparing for Christmas

On this particular year the first of December fell on a Saturday, which was good because Kagome and Inu Yasha could plan out the 5 weeks of the Christmas vacation with their friends in the mountains. Inu Yasha promised that he would go back to the past to get their friends to come to the present to join them in this holiday. Shippo was sitting on Kagome's desk trying to help Inu Yasha and Kagome planning the vacation in the mountains.

Kagome had a piece of paper from her friends, Souta and Hitomi with dates and winter activities to do over the 5 weeks at the mountain. The list of winter activities that Kagome made was as follows:

Down hill skiing,

Ice skating,

Sledding,

Snowball fight,

Ice Hockey,

Cross-country skiing,

Snowmobiling.

When Inu Yasha and Kagome both looked over the list of dates that everyone had given them they decided that they were to do all the winter activities during the first week of the Christmas Holidays. Once that was done and over with, it was supper time and everyone gather to eat and hear what Inu Yasha and Kagome planned for everyone over the Christmas Break. After supper Kagome called all of her friends and Souta's girlfriend to let them know the dates of went each winter activity would happen on the Christmas Holiday.

After all of the phone calls where made, Kagome leaned onto Inu Yasha's strong chest and whispered to him, "Let's head off to bed!" For the whole time that Shippo has been in Kagome's time he has shared Souta's room, but to night he wanted to sleep with his adoptive parents. As Inu Yasha and Kagome went up to her room to go to bed, Shippo followed them very close but not to close to piss off Inu Yasha. Inu Yasha notice what Shippo was doing and turn around very quickly on Shippo who was preparing for Inu Yasha's punch, but it never came only a strong hand came a pick him up and said, "Shippo if you wanted to be with us for a night I would not say no."

Shippo knew why Inu Yasha was trying to be understanding, was because Kagome was pregnant with his pup/child. So Inu Yasha was trying to learn everything about being a great father for his pup/child went it comes. Shippo understood that Inu Yasha was trying to use Shippo as his pup/child, so when the pup/child comes Inu Yasha will be a great father for the pup/child. Shippo was glad to help Inu Yasha in any way or form.

Shippo snuggled into the spot in between Inu Yasha and Kagome and he was the happiest little demon in the world at any point in time. The next morning Shippo woke up and Inu Yasha was already up and getting Kagome's stuff ready so she could get ready for her day at her work at (Japanese Store). Shippo got out of bed without disturbing Kagome as she slept peacefully and help Inu Yasha finish getting Kagome's lunch ready and pack for her.

As Inu Yasha and Shippo where eating their breakfast, Shippo told Inu Yasha that for this Christmas day thing Miroku want Inu Yasha to buy him a gift for Sango. So Inu Yasha told Shippo that he was going to take care of his Christmas shopping today will Kagome is at work. Inu Yasha said that, if Shippo wanted he could come along with him and Souta on this shopping for Christmas gifts and he could get some if he wanted to.

A few minutes later, Kagome came down to start getting ready for work that day and was pleasantly surprise when everything was done and ready for her ahead of time. She knew that Inu Yasha did this for her because he deeply in love with her and he knew every little thing that he did would help Kagome out in a big way. After she had her breakfast Kagome went and showered and got all dress and looking beautiful in the eyes of Inu Yasha. When Kagome was ready to go Inu Yasha took her to her work and made sure that she had everything she need and knew how to contact him if anything went wrong today and he would come and get her.

Once Inu Yasha got back the Higurashi Shrine he stop for half an hour to rest before having a day of shopping. Once Souta and Shippo were ready to go Inu Yasha took them to the shopping mall that his boss said had the best shops for people of all ages and his boss gave Inu Yasha the direction on how to get their from the Higurashi Shrine. Souta was the navigator for the trip that they took to the shopping mall.

When they got to the mall Souta asked Inu Yasha, "Why Inu Yasha want him to come along with Inu Yasha to get Christmas gifts for everyone?" Inu Yasha replied, "He wanted Souta's input on the gifts that he was getting form Kagome." Souta figure out that Inu Yasha want Kagome to see him for want he is but not for hat he could be like Kikyo saw him for what he could become.

When they got to the food court of the mall Inu Yasha got out a list of things that he want to get Kagome for Christmas gifts. The list of the items that Inu Yasha and Mrs. Higurashi made for Kagome Christmas gifts from Inu Yasha is as follows:

Picture frame with on the top Inu Yasha name engraved, and on the bottom Kagome name engraved on it,

Locket with a IY + KH engraved on the front of the locket,

Chain to attach something very important to both of them on to keep it safe,

Engagement ring to tell all human males in any time that Kagome has been taken, with a Heart Shape on the face.

When they were finished getting Kagome's Christmas gifts that Inu Yasha is going to give to her on Christmas day. They left the jewelry store with Inu Yasha's gift and the one that he promised Miroku that he would get as similar to his but instead of a chain in would be a bracelet with 'Bring it on!' for Sango. This fit Sango personality perfectly because she never backed down from a change.

Once everyone had their Christmas gifts that they wanted to give to everyone else for Christmas Inu Yasha took Souta and Shippo back to the Higurashi Shrine. After Souta and Shippo was back at the Shrine Inu Yasha went and pick up Kagome from her work. Went he got to Kagome's work, it just then struck him that she was working at the same place as his boss. He was happy that she works at the same spot as he would be in training the new employees. Kagome was already in the front entrance way waiting for Inu Yasha when he land at the building.

As Inu Yasha cared Kagome on his back running like the wind back to the Higurashi Shrine he asked her, "If she worked on a team with his boss?" Kagome replies, "Took you long enough to figure that one out! Yes, I do work as your boss's secretary and I made sure that I was the one communicating with you and your team of body guards." When Inu Yasha heard this he had big fanged smile on his face. The fanged smiled did not come off until they got back to the Higurashi Shrine.

Will Inu Yasha was gone to pick Kagome up from work, Mrs. Higurashi prepared all the things Inu Yasha need to bring to work that night for his night shift. When Inu Yasha and Kagome got home, Kagome told Inu Yasha to go is cleaned up and changed for work will she prepares the stuff he needs to bring to work tonight. When Inu Yasha was finished getting ready for work tonight he came down to pack his thing for work, he got a surprise when it had all ready been done and in Kagome's hands. Kagome hand Inu Yasha his things for work and he leaned over and gave her a good-bye kiss and was off to work.

Once he was gone to work, Kagome and Mrs. Higurashi went to get Inu Yasha a Christmas gift from Kagome, will Jii-Chan watch over Souta and Shippo. Kagome had planned on getting Inu Yasha a photo album that had picture of all the time that they have spend together and an engagement ring to tell all human females in anytime that he was taken.

When Inu Yasha asked Kagome for the broken Shikon Jewel she did not know what he had in mind for it but she knew that very soon she would know. Kagome had a third Christmas gift planned to give Inu Yasha. If her guest for what Inu Yasha was doing with the broken Shikon Jewel was right. She would knew he would give it to her and say, 'Kagome, know you can choice if I become a full fledge demon or full fledge human or I stay the way I am right now.' She planned to surprise him when she used the Jewel to make herself a half bread dog demon like he was.

When Kagome was done getting Inu Yasha his Christmas gift she got everyone else their Christmas gifts as well, because when she got the photo album and the engagement ring for Inu Yasha she got one of each for Sango as well to give to Miroku.

When Kagome and Mrs. Higurashi got home from their Christmas shopping Kagome went and hided Inu Yasha's Christmas gift in her closet where she knew he would go noising around in.
