InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Always Here, But Never Seen. ❯ Chapter # 14- Guess Who. ( Chapter 14 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

After Sam and Jake had moved the ‘out like a light’ Inuyasha to the couch in the living room they started laughing.

“I’ve seen him take poison claws to the gut, get slapped around like someone’s punching bag, almost have his arm cut off, and almost be ripped in half and he gets up like it’s nothing. But at the mention of a kid he faints.” Miroku commented, shaking his head. “I guess he isn’t as tough as we thought.”

“You fainted when I told you about our first . . .” Sango stopped and gasped. “Oh my god Miroku!” she screamed, looking to him.

“What?” he asked.

“We forgot our own kids!” (A/N: Okay, I just realized that in like the second chapter I described Miroku’s and Sango’s kids. Then I had them go though the well and COMPLETELY forget about them. Yeah I know . . .their bad parents. Bite me.)

“No we didn’t.” Miroku laughed.

“What?”

“Before we left I asked if anything did happen to us, that they could stay with Shizu.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“Oh thank god Miroku! You’re a life saver!” Sango exclaimed, latching herself onto him. “I am such a bad mother, I completely forgot about our children.”

“It’s alright. You were distracted with Lady Kagome’s return. It’s understandable.”

“God, I love you.” she whispered, kissing him.

“God, get a room.” Souta complained, rolling his eyes.

“Just you wait kid. You’ll be doing that in the living room too.” Sam commented, smirking down at the still-passed-out Inuyasha. “Is he gonna wake up any time soon?”

“I dunno.” Jake looked out into the hall to see Kagome still standing there. “But Kagome looks ready to fall over.”

“What?” Josh asked, looking out the door and he laughed. “Kaggy looks sooo funny right about now.” Just then Kago walked out of the door leading to the basement.
“Morning sweetie.” he said and when he got no response from her he looked at her confused. “You okay Kagome?”

“She’s fine. Just shocked. So is Inu.” Jake said.

“What happened to Inuyasha?” Kago asked, looking into the living room.

“He fainted.”

“Why?”

“Kaggy told him she was pregnant.”

“What!?” Kago practically screeched. “My baby girl is pregnant!?”

Sam flinched and turned amused eyes to the ever increasing shocked father.

“Yup. With his.” he pointed to Inuyasha, “baby.”

Kago’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “And no one thought to tell me this!?” when Sam looked up he gulped when he noticed Kago’s eyes on him. He had been expecting Kago to be glaring at Inuyasha, not him!

“Hey it ain’t my fault!” Sam said, putting his hands up defensively and backing up slightly. “And Kagome just found out today so . . .”

“She just found out?”

“Yeah. Just found out.”

“Well . . .then it isn’t anyone’s fault. I bet she’s just to shocked to move right about now.” Kago looked to Inuyasha. “And he fainted because she’s pregnant?”

“Yeah. Pathetic huh?” Sam laughed.

“No. I fainted when Taya told me that she was pregnant with Kagome.” Sam instantly shut his mouth.

“Err . . .well . . .um . . .You se-”

Knock, Knock, Knock.

“I wonder who that is.” Josh whispered moving to the door. Opening it he looked confused. “Can I help you?”

“This is the Higurashi Shrine right?” a smooth and warm voice asked. Sango and Miroku exchanged a glance.

“Yes it is. Who are you looking for?”

“I’m actually looking for Kagome and mutt face.”

“Oh my god! It is Kouga!” Sango said rushing forwards.

“Nice to see you too Sango.” Kouga said, a smile on his face. He, of course, wasn’t fur and amour he had been in the feudal era. He was wearing somewhat tight fitting jeans, and a dark brown tee shirt that had a picture of a person looking extremely guilt and had ‘I swear to god he was dead when I found him!’ in bold red jagged letters underneath. His hair was remarkable shorter, and actually it went down to his ears, just covering the pointed tips. It was curled at the ends, like he wore a lot of hats. Made sense seeing as he was wearing a red baseball cap that was turned a bit sideways. His face hadn’t changed much, seeing as he was full demon age didn’t affect him as much. But he did look older. Maybe in his early twenties.

“You look . . .different Kouga.” Miroku said, stepping up beside his wife.

“Did you expect me to show up in full wolf amour, monk?” he asked playfully, pushing his way in. “Where’s Kags? And Mutt face.”

By now Kagome had started shaking her head to clear her mind when she turned to the door.

“Wow Kagome.” Kouga muttered his eyes wide. “Can you say hottie?” he whistled a little and Kagome grinned.

“I’m not sure who you are but thanks. You don’t look to bad yourself. I’d say pretty damn sexy.”

“Then why don’t you drop dog turd and come with me.”

“Kouga?” Kagome asked, looking him over.

“The one and only.” he answered, spreading his arms out and spinning around.

“It’s so good to see you.” she said, rushing to him and hugging him.

“Well this is a pleasant change. But where’s dog boy? I can smell him all over you.”

“He’s out like a light.” Sam said, a small laugh in his voice again.

“What!?” Kagome snapped. “What happened?”

“You told him you were pregnant and he fainted.”

“He . . .fainted?” Kouga whispered, then he started laughing. Not a half ass chuckle, a full out laugh. He was actually bending at the waist, clutching his stomach and laughing his head off. “H-He . . .f-fainted!” he chocked out between laughs. “Oh that’s hilarious.”

Kagome was already in the living room looking half amused down at Inuyasha’s sleeping-ish face.

“That is hilarious.” Kagome muttered, turning to Kouga. “I’ve seen him be someone’s personally punching back, someone’s hack sack. Your chew toy, and Sesshomaru’s scratching post and the idea of a baby makes him faint?”

“My thoughts exactly. Minus the chew toy part. I wouldn’t chew on him if my life depending on it.”

“Well we’re lucky that it doesn’t depend on it.”

“That we are.” Kouga kissed her cheek gently. “And congratulations.”

“Thanks.” she smiled, gently pocking Inuyasha in the cheek. “Hey sleepy head! Wake up!” she poked him harder and he groaned, his eyes scrunched his eyes together and turned him head.

“He’s not getting up anytime soon.” Kouga laughed.

“Oh yes he is.” she gave him an evil smirk, and reaching down, slipped her hand through the waist band of his jeans. Kouga shared her evil grin as Miroku, Sam and Jake snickered. Sango and Josh trying not to laugh to loud. Kago just shook his head. Shippo and Souta having left to go get something to eat.

Shifting her hand a little she took a firm hold and his extremely limp member. And squeezed it.

Inuyasha’s eyes flew open and he bolted upright. Subconsciously growling. His threat wasn’t really very good seeing as Kagome felt him go hard in her hand.

“Good morning sleepy head.” she said sweetly, and he blinked at her a few times, then looked down to his lap when her fingers twitched. He groaned loudly.

“Damn it. Great. Thanks.” he said sarcastically. “Now I’m going to have to take care of this little problem or walk around with it hard as rock all damn day.” he glared at her.

“I’ll make it up to you.” he blinked a few times before a very perverted grin came on his face. It was a wonder he wasn’t groping her right about now.

“You’d better.” he snarled, kissing her furiously. She gave him a muffled laugh before pulling away when Kouga cleared his throat. “Who the fuck are you?” he growled when Kagome stood, removing her hand from his pants, and hugged said man.

“Don’t remember my puppy?” Kouga taunted, and Inuyasha blinked, sniffing lightly.

“Kouga?”

“I see that nose of your still works. Better have that checked, you should have been able to tell my scent right away.”

“Sorry, I was a little preoccupied.”

“I noticed.” Kouga smirked when Inuyasha swung his legs over the side of the couch and grimaced a little. “And congrats.”

“Congrats? On what?”

“Oh, he forgot already.” Sam whispered. “Bad Inu. Bad puppy.” Inuyasha growled.

“Seriously. What?”

“Promise not to faint this time?” Kagome asked laughing. Inuyasha blinked. “I’m pregnant.” his eyes widened again and he looked ready to fall over . . .again.

“Don’t faint!” Sam said laughing.

“I ain’t gonna faint.”

“You did once.”

“I did?”

“Yeah! That’s why Kaggy had to grab your d-”

“Okay! Thanks.” Inuyasha growled, his face heating up.
“Aha, puppy still blushes.” Kouga said laughing.

“You probably still do.”

“Nope. I stopped blushing after Ayame and I had our 14th pup.”

“14th? How many you got?” Kagome asked.

“Um . . .Somewhere near . . .30 . . .maybe 31. I kinda lost count.”

“30?” Kagome yelled, eyes wide.

“Most were in litters. That’s what you get when you’re mates canine.” Kouga said, Kagome’s face paled.
“Does that mean I’m gonna have litters?”
“Possibly. Ayame had one litter that had 10 pups.” Kagome looked like she was going to be the one to faint this time.

“10 pups?” she squeaked. “In one litter?”

“Yeah. But if you ever do have a litter it will probably not go over 4 pups. Cuz you’re human.”

“Oh thank god.”

“You sound like you don’t wanna have kids.” Inuyasha muttered.

“Oh I do. Really. I’d just really rather not have 10 kids at once!”

Kouga laughed before saying, “Yeah. Ayame was sore and cranky for about maybe a year. Ugh.” He groaned. “Worst year of my life. I had to get myself off.”
“Thanks for that information.” Inuyasha muttered, rolling his eyes.

“Psshft.” Kouga responded, sitting down on the couch beside him.

“Anyways, what are you doing here Kouga?” Sango asked, sitting on the floor across from him.

“Actually, I’m here cuz fluffy asked me to. This place is getting kinda crowded actually. He wanted me to see if you guys wanted to stay over with him.”

“Fluffy?” Miroku questioned. Kagome’s face lit up.

“Sesshomaru!?”

“Yup!” Kouga winked at her. “Ayame and I started calling him that after you mentioned that you used to call him that. Pisses him off every time.” Kagome laughed.

“So how’d he know that the place was crowded?”

“When you showed up at the airport for a pop concert with Inuyasha, Miroku and Sango behind you.”

“Ahh.” she muttered. “I knew my popularity would come back and bite me in the ass.”

“You sure that wasn’t Inu?” Kouga questioned, Kagome just laughed as Inuyasha’s face went red.

“What is it? Gang up on Inuyasha day or something?” Inuyasha snapped sarcastically.

“Yup!” Kagome and Kouga replied fast. Inuyasha just growled.

“Anyways, why do you stay here anyways?” Kouga asked Kagome. “You could buy a place just as big --if not bigger than-- Sesshomaru’s. But you’re staying here?”

“Never got around to buying a new house. I was actually thinking of moving back to California, possibly New York.”

“What!?” Kouga snapped. “Nope, no. Sesshomaru would kick my ass if I let you move back there. Then he’d have Ayame rip my balls off and feed them to me.” he shuddered a little at the thought, Inuyasha shuddered with him. “But he kinda needs your guy’s help.”

“Why?” Inuyasha asked shocked. He knew that he had at least been on good terms with Sesshomaru after defeating Naraku, but since when would Sesshomaru actually admit that he needed Inuyasha’s help?

“He didn’t actually say that he needed help from you.” Kouga added shrugging. “But when he says, and I quote ‘Tell Inuyasha to get his and the rest of the weaklings living at Higurashi Shrine, to get their lazy asses down here now!’ I kinda interrupted that he needed help. And if you ever tell him that I will deny it.”

“O . . .k?”

“Trust me, even though I won’t say it to him for fear of bringing his ego to even more ridiculous heights,” Kouga muttered crossing his arms, “He could kick my ass from here into the next century.”

“Oh wow. What happened to you? You’re all . . .I don’t know what it is its just weird.” Kagome commented and Kouga laughed.

“I could say the same about you sweetie. I didn’t know you had it in you to get you’re lips, tongue, eyebrow, and hips pierced.”

“How do you know about that?” Kagome asked.

“I have my ways. I also know that you have a silver dog tattoo on your ankle.”

“You do!?” Sam asked, a grin on his face “I guess you liked Inu an offal lot.”

“No.” she snapped instantly, not noticing said hanyou’s ears droop. “Mizu suckered me into it. She’s got one too.”

Mizu lifted the bottom of her jeans on her left leg to reveal the silver dog on her ankle as well. “Yeah. It seemed like a good idea at the time. But still. It takes a lot to get Kagome to do what she doesn’t want to.” Mizu laughed. “Especially who she doesn’t want to do.”

“Oh shut up Mi.” Kagome smirked before saying her neck comment. “You’re just jealous that you haven’t gotten any as of yet.” Mizu’s face turned red as she glared at Kagome.

“Whatever, we have to go.” Kouga said standing. “He’s got separate rooms for each of you.” Inuyasha growled a little. “Save for the mutt. He kinda has to share a room with Kaggy.”

“Don’t call me that.”

“What ever. Come on, get your lazy asses up and pack! I’m not going to stand around all day!”

“Still the same old impatient Kouga.” Sango muttered walking up the stairs.

“I heard that!” Kouga bellowed after her.

After packing, some arguing between Inuyasha and Kagome, and maybe about 10 ‘sit’ commands, everyone had their stuff packed, and in the SUV that Kouga and brought along. And seeing as there wasn’t any room in said SUV Kouga called for a limo.

“Nope, no way.” Kagome snapped, glaring at the wolf who was looking at her like she was crazy. “I’m taking my baby.” she walked over to the blood red corvette parked a little ways away from the steps.

“Nice car.” Kouga commented, eyeing it. She growled at him.

“Nu-huh buddy. This babies’ mine!” she jumped into the drivers seat and putting the key in the ignition. Turning the key she revved the engine a little and smirked when Kouga pouted.

“Man, I wish I had my Ferrari.” Sam muttered, climbing into the back of the limo that just pulled up.

“He’s got a Ferrari?” Kouga looked to Kagome.

“Yeah, I got one too, but I left that one at home.”

“Ah man . . .” He pouted before climbing in after Sam.

“Kagome, sweetheart, I have to go back.” Kago said, walking up to the drivers side of her car.

“What?” she asked, pouting a little.

“I just got off the phone with the person I put in charge of the company in Florida. Something’s come up and I have to get back as soon as possible.”

“Oh well that sucks.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll come back as soon as possible to visit. Sound good?”

“Yeah!”

“Alright, I’ve got a plane to catch, seems he already bought tickets for me. The dolt.” Kago laughed a little. “But I’ll be back as soon as possible. And I swear if Inuyasha doesn’t treat you right I’m gonna-”

“Dad, it’s fine. Inuyasha’s defiantly going to treat me right. I swear. And don’t you have a plane to catch?” Kagome said amused.

“Oh, yeah. Love you sweetie.”

“Dad, I’m 28, not 5.” they didn’t notice the silver haired hanyou watching them with drooping ears.

“I know, you’re still my baby girl. You could be 135 and you’d still be my baby girl.”

“You’d be dead.”

Kago opened his mouth, closed it again the sighed through a smile. “So? You’ll be my baby girl while I’m in my grave.”
“You are so weird.” she said stifling a giggle.

Kago leaned over the side of the door and kissed her on the top of the head before mumbling one last goodbye before jumping on his bike and speeding off.

Kagome sighed as she watched him leave, finally turning to the hanyou who seems to be off somewhere else.

“Inuyasha?” she whispers, and he shakes his head.

“Hmm?” he asked blinking at her. “What did you say?”

She laughed before unlocking the passenger door. “Get it, you’re riding with me.” They both heard Miroku’s extremely loud laugh and the sound of someone punching someone followed by a equally loud ‘Ow! Sango!’.

Climbing in and sitting beside her Inuyasha sighed and, closing his eyes, leans his head on the headrest behind him.

“Are you okay?” Kagome asked Inuyasha as he still hadn’t moved from the position he had been in when they left --she looks at the clock-- two hours ago.

“Fine. . .” comes his barley audible reply.

“No you’re not. You’re not . . .upset are you?”

“Upset? About what?”

“That you’re kinda stuck with me now that we’re having a kid?”

He opens his eyes and looks at her with the most shocked expression any one could ever have. He blinks a few times but she refuses to meet his eyes. Making sure that her eyes stay trained on the road at all costs. He assumes he’s taking too long to answer when he picked up her sad scent. “No,” he finally replies sighing again. “I’m not upset, or mad . . .or . . . Anything other then . . .shocked a tiny bit scared.”

“A tiny bit?”

“Okay more like really scared.”

She giggles a little before replying. “Well . . .if it helps I’m kinda scared too. But at least you’ve have some experience.”

“What? When?” he blinked at her.

“Shippo? You took care of him after I left remember?”
“Oh . . .right yeah.” sighing again he looked out at the passing houses, people, stores and such as they drive by. “You were like his mother you know.”

“I know.”

“You hurt him pretty damn much when you left.”

“Oh shit! That reminds me. I didn’t like . . .bust your arm or something when I blasted you off the well?”

He turned to look at her before grinning. “So you . . .did think about me after you left?”

“Not really.” she replies instantly. “I kinda forgot about the jewel, Naraku, the feudal ear until the day before I came back. Which kinda had me reliving the day I left that night.” she sighed. “I don’t really think it was fair for me to just leave Sango, Miroku and Shippo like that but it was your fault.”

“How?”

“You knew how much it hurt me when you ran off to Kikyo. And still . . .you did it. Then I saw you promising to protect her, and always be there for her, and help her when she needed it.” she sneered a little as anger flashed on her face. “And it was like you completely forgot about me. Forgot that you promised to protect me, and some other shit. I just lost it.”

“So . . .you heard all that did you?”

“Yes, but it doesn’t really matter now. You’re kinda stuck here . . .”

“I don’t mind really.”

She looks at him through the corner of her eyes and he grins. “You are so weird.”

“So?”

“Weird isn’t normal.”

“Since when is normal a good thing?”

She seemed to ponder this before she grins with him. “I don’t think it has ever been. Besides, I’m pretty weird too.”

“Yeah and that dragon tattoo on your back creeps me out sometimes.”

She laughs at him as they speed up, catching up to the limo and driving past it. The window in the backseat is rolled down and Sango it waving at them. Kagome sticks her tongue out at them and speeds past them, seeing Kouga in the driver’s side over the limo. “When do you think he learned to drive a limo?” Kagome asked. Inuyasha shrugs.

“Hey Kouga!” she called, he rolls his window down and gives her a feign annoyed look,

“Hey bitch! I’m trying to drive here!” he calls to her and she grins.

“Race ya?”

“You don’t even know where we’re going!”

“That giant mansion up there?” she points to the house just peaking out through the trees and Kouga scowled.

“Smartass.” he muttered before nodding. She speeds past him and makes sure she’s always in front of him.

Flicking the radio on the comedian Bill Engvall’s voice filters through the speakers.

“Alright, so I was standing in this office building, I’m standing in front of the elevators I have pushed the button. This women walks up to me and says: ‘Are these the elevators that go up?’ I said: ‘No these are the elevators that go side to side, the elevators that go up are down the hall.’ And she walked away! Here’s your sign.”

Kagome laughs and turns it up, Bill Engvalll being one of her most favourite comedians.

“That’s why they have warnings on products ladies and gentlemen. It’s not for us it’s for the stupid people. If they all just wore a sign you’d just say ‘I’m sorry, I-I can’t sell you that.’

“Did you know on a tube of preparation-H it says ‘Do not take this orally?’ That’s sad isn’t it? Because you know someone wrote them a letter. ‘Dear preparation-H. I ate this whole dang tube, and I still have these hymnodies. Man my mouth so small . . .I can’t eat a jelly bean anymore. But I can whistle really good’.”

“Oh my god,” Kagome gasped out through the laughs. They were still ahead of Kouga by at least a 10 meters.

“Did you know that on the back of a roll on deodorant it says: ’Do not apply this to your eyes?’ Ladies . . .when was the last time you were on a blind date, and he was good looking but he just had that stinky eye?”

By now Inuyasha was laughing with her.

“Did you know on the back of a bottle of shaving cream it says: ‘Avoid spraying this into an open flame’? Where the hell was that guy saving at!? What was he sitting around the campfire one night and said ‘Well I feel a little bristly’ BRSSSSS ‘Nice, that’s nice . . .little tender.”

(A/N: This next one is actually real . . .Bill had said it and I found out that it actually is true. All the one’s on the blow driers and the curling irons.)

“There’s warning on blow dries did you know this? It says: ‘Do not use while sleeping.’ Well lord hadn’t that become a problem. Because I don’t know about the rest of you but I can not count the number of time I was sound asleep . . .woke up I was doing my hair. ‘Dang it I was sleep styling again!’

“There’s another warning that says: ‘Do not use this blow drier in the shower’ Whose writing this pamphlet? Have ya’ll ever been in the shower and said ‘Honey I’m done shampooing my hair! Toss me that blow drier!’?”

“I’m sure most of you ladies out there use curling irons, ever get the chance read the warnings on these things. I swear it says: ‘The first time you use this curling iron you may notice a slight odour and some smoke.’ That means your hair’s on fire.

“There’s another warning that says: ’Do NOT insert this curling iron in and orifice.’ My god, what happened to good old fashion foreplay?”

“Oh . . .my god!” Inuyasha could barley catch his breath, he’s actually quiet amazed that Kagome can still drive!

“Okay, so I try to watch good TV with my kids, that’s not easy there’s not a lot of good on TV anymore but what we do watch and love the heck out of is that Discovery Channel with the Animal Shows. Yeah we love em’. There was this show on animals of the Sahara Desert. Now this one’s a classic.

“There’s this desert wasp that spends his whole life digging a hole in the sand . . .for his mate alright? And, And she just stands there . . . Griped at him. He’s digging for all he’s worth man and she’s like ‘I want a pool.’ So this wasp dies digging this hole, and you’d think after an hour of digging you’d be like ‘You know, you’re getting uglier by the minute I can tell you that right now.’

“And there’s this lizard that when he’s feet get to hot he won’t move, he just stands there. It’s like if he could talk he’s be like: ‘Wa, this sand is hot.’ And his mate would be like ‘Well find some shade loser.’

“There’s these bugs that their whole job is just to run. They, they just get in a straight line and book it across the desert. It’s like one of them gets up in the morning and says: ‘Ya’ll ready to run?’ and the rest of them just go: ‘Hit it buddy we’re right behind ya. Lets run by that lizard he’s hysterical.”

By now that had reached the abnormally long driveway of Sesshomaru’s abnormally large house. Apparently Sesshomaru’s tail wasn’t the only thing that was abnormal.

“And there’s this snake that eats these bugs, but he can’t lay on top of the sand cuz they’ll see him; so he lays underneath the sand and listens for these bugs to come running by. . . If you can hear bugs running on said . . .What do you need to hide for!? You’re already way ahead of them they don’t even know where their going! You see that snake under the sand with his buddies going: ‘Sssh, sssh, Here they come. Yeah, yeah that’s them! . . .that one’s got a limp here it?’

“And how do animals know which is the weakest one? It’s like lions and zebras. They don’t hang out together but the lions always seem to know which is the weakest zebra. I figure there must be like a . . .a squealer zebra. Ya know one of the little wussy zebras that doesn’t wanna get eaten so he narks on all his buddies. See him go sneaking up to the lions like: ’Hey fellas, fellas. Alright hears the deal. There’s a heard of us couple hundred yards down there, and we’re all in pretty good shape. Except Bob. He’s a smoker.’

“And I’ll tell you what animal got the wrong end of the deal in life that’s the frog. Think about it, we eat something and it’s bad what do we do? We just spit it out. The frogs got that sticky tongue, so if . . .if they zap like a really nasty fly. It’s like: ‘Blah, gah. Awe man! I can’t get it off my tongue!’

Laughing their asses off Inuyasha and Kagome get out of the car and walk over to the Kouga whose pouting because he lost.

“Well. Big enough house?” Miroku asked. Kagome and Inuyasha continue to laugh.

“Well, long time no see little brother.” a cold, strong and slightly annoyed voice fills their ears. Inuyasha and Kagome imminently shut their mouths and turn to the youkai who had said that. Slightly surprised to see his hair about the same length as Kouga’s. His eyes seemed to have take on a knew light as well, but what shocks them most is that he’s . . . smiling?

Sesshomaru is SMILING!?

*************************************************************************** *******************************
Sorry for the semi long wait . . .I was busy. Anyways there’s the chapter and thanks again to eriste for giving me the idea to bring Kouga in when Inuyasha fainted. But I kinda figured out after I started writing this that I needed a reason for Kouga to come in . . .and having them have to move in with Sesshomaru seemed to kind of fit a little. Anyways, hope you like it! Please review and I’ll probably try to get the next one up as soon as possible . . . I’m getting to a lazy streak here . . .anyways.

SEE YA!!!!
