Mood: Peppy, but disgusted…
Listening To: “California Girls”, by Katy Perry ft. Snoop Dogg
Notes/Updates: This chappie is the longest one I know of so far!! It’s 12 pages!! Whoo!! I don’t wanna waste anymore time. Let’s start this bitch!!
Kagome banged furiously on the mahogany bathroom door. Her tiny fist was starting to turn red. She tried kicking the door open, but failed.
“If you don’t open this door right now, I swear, I’ll castrate you while you’re sleeping!” she yelled.
Inuyasha opened the door and stared at the 5’7” girl before him. “1-ow and 2- why?” he asked.
“You willfully stayed in there!”
“I was brushing my teeth!”
“For half an hour?!”
“No, I just wanted you to pee yourself.”
“Then you would clean it up, dumbass. Now, move,” she said as she pushed past him.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes and went downstairs. Today was the 29th, and he and Kagome were supposed to meet everyone at “Hotness”. They were discussing party details for his and Kagome’s conjoined birthday. Ayame had an “underwater party” idea…
“Ready to go?” Kagome asked when she got downstairs.
“You were rushing me for that?”
“Yep.”
__Song change from “California Girls” to “Check on It” by Beyonc__
They got into his “baby” and headed to “Hotness”. Everyone was sitting at the table, waiting for Kagome and Inuyasha. “Hotness” was a café-like establishment. It was mostly a teen hangout, but every occasionally a forty-something year old going through their mid-life crisis would come in. Inuyasha and Kagome came over to the table and sat across from each other. Sango was glaring at the now unconscious Miroku. Kagome raised an eyebrow at him, “What, um… happened to him?”
“He groped her again so Sango knocked him out. Don’t worry he’ll com to in a few minutes,” Ayame said looking over her menu.

LATER…
Kagome ran down the stairs and into the living room to find Souta and Inuyasha watching “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End”. Inuyasha was lying on the couch and Souta was on his stomach on the floor. Inuyasha looked to her when she entered. He motioned for her to come over to him. She complied and sat next to him on the couch. Inuyasha pulled the blanket from off of the chair’s arm and covered them with it while she rested her head on his shoulder.
At the end of the movie, Inuyasha looked over to find Kagome asleep. He took off the blanket and picked her up bridal style. She stirs slightly while he took her to her room. Opening the door with his foot, he walked over to her bed and leaned over to put her down. She had other plans, fisted her hand in his shirt, and clamped her other arm around his neck in her sleep. He tried calling out to her and shaking her awake, but unfortunately/fortunately failed. After the fifth try, she loosed her hold and he laid her in her bed quietly. Quietly, he left the room. (A/N: awwwww))
Souta walked into Kagome’s room and approached her sleeping form. He shook her shoulder gently to wake her. He called her name softly, but she remained asleep. He picked up the half-empty glass of water and threw its contents on her. Kagome sprang up in her bed and rolled off onto the floor. She looked up at her brother with a glare and noticed Inuyasha standing behind Souta.
~KAGOME’S P.O.V~
Why is he staring at me like that?
I sat on the floor staring at Inuyasha, him staring back at me, mouth agape. I felt a breeze blow in through my window and got like really cold around the torso area. I looked down at my WHITE tank top that was now wet thanks to Souta…you can see my bra. Dammit. I’m afraid to look up at him. What will he say? I felt my face heat up and I knew I was blushing. Why is it that he is the only one that can make me blush like this?? How long been?
10 year later, (little exaggeration there…) I look up to find Inuyasha leaving. “Wait!” I called out to him. He turned slowly to me. Is he really that uncomfortable? It’s just a…wet…tank top…Ughhhh. I might as only be wearing a bra! Strike that… “What did you come in for?”
He turned all the way around, forgetting his embarrassment, “Kouga just called and said he had to cancel plans.”
“That’s it? Kouga cancelled on me?”
“Yeah, what were you expecting?”
Are you kidding me? “Well, considering I just was woken with a shock and fell off my bed, I thought you came to check on my well-being.”
He scoffed at me and left. Souta had left after five years (…wow…)), so I was alone. I checked the clock. “10:23’ Might as well change…
After changing out my tank top, -why do the Kami hate me??- I went down stairs to see Inuyasha eating bacon and eggs. (A/N: I don’t know what is for breakkie in Japan!! Sue me, bunch o’ losers…)) He looked up at me and motioned his head to the kitchen. I walked over to the sink and read the note that was there:
Kagome,
I took Souta to a friend’s house and I’ll be at my book club. Jii-chan is visiting a shrine in Tokyo. We’ll all be home at b.
Love,
Mom.
(p.s. don’t let Inuyasha burn down the house…)
I turned to my right and saw…
A/N: let’s finish this…
I turned to my right and saw a plate of food laid out for me. There were three strips of bacon and a ham and cheese omelet. That bastard… He ate my bacon! I always get four strips! It’s just enough to fill me, but not enough to make me look like a fatty!! I picked up my plate and walked over to the table. I took a strip of bacon off his plate to replace the one he took. He was going to argue, but I gave him an ‘I-know-you-took-my-bacon’ look and he immediately shut up. I sat a seat down form him and ate my breakfast in silence. I noticed out of corner of my eye that he was wearing a blue/white/gray striped polo and khaki shorts. I turned to him, “You’re going out?” he didn’t look up at me.
“Yep.”
“Where?”
R 20;Someplace.”
That helps. I rolled my eyes, “Where exactly?”
“Don’t know. Maybe the mall or I might hang out with Bankotsu.”
He has uncertain plans? Damn you Kouga!! Why’d you have to cancel on me when everyone else has plans?! Well, I’ll just have to include myself in Inuyasha’s plans…
“Spend the day with me,” I commanded
“Why?,” he asked, finally looking up at me.
“Because Kouga canceled on me and now I have nothing to do.”
“Fine, but I’m leaving in ten minutes and if you aren’t ready im leaving your ass here,” he said, taking a bite out off his Lucky Charms. (A/N: It’s magically delicious!!))
I smiled at me. He could never say no to me. I’m so spoiled…
~25 minutes l8r…~
I walked down the shrine steps to Inuyasha. He was waiting with a pout on his face. He is so adorable! He glared at me as I came in front of him.
(A/N: HA! I have chicken pot pie!! Ha…SHIT!! It splattered on my glasses!! Fucker!!…yummm))
“I knew you would wait.”
He didn’t remark as we got in his Ferrari (awesome!) and he began to drive.
“Where are we going?,” I asked.
“Don’t know,” he replied. My eyes moved to his hands that were in the steering wheel. His knuckles were white. Why is he so tense?
(rare moment)-> ~Inuyasha P.O.V.~
Dammit, fuck! Why today?! Fucker! She doesn’t even know what is going on! Kouga you bastard! He knew it was starting today! This is why I would avoid Kagome! I have to wind down a window! I’ll die in here!!
I noticed Stupid staring at me with concern in her eyes. I want to tell her what’s wrong, but… maybe I can ditch her in the mall?? No, she’d find me. She always finds me…damn!
Red Light.
I took my hands off the wheel and breathed a sigh. big mistake. Why me, dammit!? What Kami up there hates me?! Why can’t- I felt Stupid slip her hand in mine. I looked at her. She was smiling at me reassured. She could tell something was bothering me. She just didn’t know what nor do I want her to know. I remember the first time this happened…
Green light.
I pressed my foot on the gas and placed one hand on the wheel. I kept a hold on her hand, I wasn’t ready to let go just yet. I really need to talk to oyaji about this… (old man; a disrespectful term for “father”)
“Do you want to visit okaa and otou?,” I asked.
She turned to me. I kept my eyes on the road. “Really? Sure!” Stupid seemed happier. At least it will distract her… I came off the highway and turned down a dirt road. How long has it been since I’ve been here?? Oh, right… I was here a few days ago to see Shippou. Well, at least Stupid can meet Shippou. I pulled into my parents’ driveway and cut the engine. Stupid got out and rushed to the door. She was wearing a black cop jacket, whit tank top (she never learns), black mini skirt and heels. I just noticed, I swear! I got out of the car and knocked on my parents’ unnecessarily large mahogany door. Of course, I had a key, but I was too lazy to reach in my pocket, pull them out, put them in the lock, turn the key, and after all that, I would still have to turn the doorknob. Suddenly, someone opened the door, but I didn’t recognize them.
“¿Puedo ayudarle?” (May I help you?)
“What?,” Stupid asked. She obviously didn’t speak Spanish. Luckily for me, I was taught nine different languages.
“Estamos aquí para ver a mis padres, Sofía,” I answered in fluent Spanish. (We’re here to see me parents, Sofia.)
“Oh, vamos, entonces. ¿Quieres algo?,” she asked. (Oh, come in then. Would you like something?)
“Do you want something?,” I asked Stupid. She looked so lost isn’t not even funny…well actually, the look on her face is pretty hilarious…
“No, I’m good,” she said to me.
“No necesito nada, pero que podía usar una pastilla de menta,” I said to Sofia. Sofia laughed and left us alone. Stupid would kill me if she knew what I had said. (I don't need anything, but she could use a breath mint.)
“What did you say?,” Kagome asked me.
“Don’t worry about her. She has her moments where she confuses everyone in the house,” I said.
Then, my mother came down the staircase silently. It was a grand and unnecessary staircase that connected the first and second floors. She walked over to us, as silent as she always is. “Inuyasha, que no era bueno que decir delante de Kagome. Incluso si ella no puede hablar el idioma,” my mother said to me. (Inuyasha, that wasn't nice to say in front of Kagome. Even if she can't speak the language.)
“Era una broma inofensiva. Yo no lo decía en serio. He venido a ver de todos modos papá. ¿Dónde está?” (It was a harmless joke. I didn't mean it. I came to see dad anyways. Where is he?)
“In his study. Knock first,” she said quietly, as I left them alone.
~Kagome’s P.O.V.~
Inuyasha left us to go do…something. What could he-?
“Kagome, dear?,” okaa called to me. I turned to her to let her know she had my attention, “have you met Shippou-chan?” I shook my head in the negative. She smiles. I had a funny feeling about this…
~2 hours later~
I was playing Uno with Shippou while okaa made lunch. Otou and Inuyasha were walking out now. I was laying on my stomach I the living room. Inuyasha approached us and sat down with us. Otou came to me and tapped my shoulder. He made a ‘come’ motion with his hand. I had to follow. I followed him to his “study”. It was a library with a wooden desk, two black leather couches, and on the right side of the room the wall was replaced with a wall of glass. I sat down and waited for him to speak. He leaned on his desk. He’s still not talking… how long will it take? One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi, four… I’m bored of it now.
Just then Inuyasha and Okaa walked. Inuyasha sat in the chair behind the desk and began to read a paper. He seems better now. I guess the talk with otou helped.
“Oyaji, what’s this?,” he asked. I knew he wouldn’t understand it… stupid.
“it’s a partnership contract that Unicorp’s lawyers drew up. They want to have an equal partnership with us. I read it and had Sesshoumaru looked it over already.”
“But, if you agree, 5 years from now they’ll have gained more than 82% of the profit,” he stated.
Otou’s face fell. He quickly moved over to Inuyasha and read over his shoulder. Ugh, I hate it when people do that…
“you’re right,” otou said.
Inuyasha actually understood the contract??
“Come with me,” otou said, practically dragging Inuyasha out the door. They took the contract with them. Okaa walked over to the desk with a book in hand. Sitting on the desk, she looked up at me, “Kagome have I ever told you the story of how I met otou?”
“No,” I said. I feel a story time coming on! Where’s my popcorn?
~I GETS LIKE TWILIGHT FROM HER ON OUT~
“Well, I was in my freshman year of college and I hadn’t known what I was going to major in. I just picked something randomly and hoped it worked out. Of course, I chose business. On my first day of class, I didn’t really notice otou. O got there a little late and the only seat available was right next to him. He seemed really… tense.”
Oh. My. God.
“Anyways, the next day he didn’t show up and the day after that. I was pissed. So, when he came back I confronted him. He said hat he was busy. I didn’t believe him. “
“A few months into the year, I was failing. So, I asked the smartest guy in class to help me. Not “tutor”, uttering’s for stupid people.”
~I’m sorry if Izyoi offended anyone!!~
I laughed at that. ~Sorry again! Bad, Kagome…~
“So, he said yes and we started that afternoon. I immediately got better, but naturally, I still needed help. So we kept up the lessons and I noticed he was…cute. Well, not cute. Try down-right, drop-dead gorgeous! Sorry.”
I made a face. She was straying off topic…
“I asked him out and he said yes, but… I had conditions. He would have to pick me up, take me to a restaurant with at least four stars, and drop me home after. He agreed. On the date, I wore a red cocktail dress, I’ll never forget that. We went to a French restaurant on the sea. He was completely boring! Halfway through the meal, he just up and says, “I know you’re not having a good time.” Off course I wasn’t! I would have spilled food on my dress just so I could leave and go to the bathroom and climb out the window! But, then I remembered… we were on a boat.”
I laughed again. Okaa could always make me laugh.
“so, then he says, “You wanna leave?” and I said, “what about the bill?” He didn’t answer me. Instead, he took my hand and led me outside. We went to a secluded part on the yacht and I leaned on the railing. He took my hand and dived into the sea. Next thing I knew, I was on his back while he was swimming to shore. The rest of the night, we spent talking and I found out we had a lot in common. After that, we started going out and next thing I knew we were engaged and it was senior year of college. And I didn’t want to finish it. I told him my decision and he said, “Give me back my ring.”
My jaw dropped. He really said that??
“He really said that,” she said to me.
Is she reading my thoughts?
“I said “no” and he said that if I don’t finish he’s not going to marry me. By then, I was head over heels in love. Do kids still say that? The “head over heels in love” thing? Oh, well. So, I said, “If you love me you’ll let me do this.” and he said, ”Wrong. If I let you drop out, I’ll be the worst fiancée ever.” after 5 hours of yelling at each other I said “fine.” so, I finished, got my degree, got married (and mated), and had Inuyasha. And now I can look back and say, “If he hadn’t told me that, Kami knows where’d I’d be.”
Right then, Inuyasha and otou came back with Sesshoumaru.
“What are you guys talking about?,” otou asked.
“I was just telling Kagome the story of how we met,” Izyoi replied.
“Did you tell her about the time I blew a boat for you?”
“Nani?”
“I was bored one day and said, “Can you blow up a boat?” he took me on a plane and we watched as I pushed the button and blew it up. It was fun,” okaa said. I was speechless.
“That really happened?,” I asked.
“Yep!,” Okaa answered.
“They wouldn’t take me to see it. I had to stay home and watch Inuyasha,” Sesshoumaru grumbled.
“Love you to, Fluffy,” Inuyasha said as he read the back of the book Izyoi was reading.
We spent the res of the afternoon at the house.
~7 o’ clock~
I hugged okaa good night as we were leaving. Inuyasha still hadn’t told me what was wrong…
I waved ‘bye’ from the car as he pulled out of the driveway. Time to get to work…
“What was bothering you before?”
“Nothing,” he replied. I should have expected that.
“Don’t tell me “nothing. Tell me what was wrong.”
“I had a problem.”
“I know that. What was the problem?”
“It’s… complicated.”
“Fine, don’t tell me.” I left it at that. He’ll tell me eventually. He always does, “What are you doing tomorrow?”
“Stuff.”
This is getting ridiculous! “Seriously!”
“I’m going somewhere,” he said.
“Where?”
“You’re not coming.”
“I only asked you “where” not “can I come.”
“Road trip with Miroku to Tokyo.”
“I wanna come!,” I yelled like a child. And so began the yelling contest of questions…
“No!”
“Why not?!”
“Because I said so!”
“Why can’t I come?!”
“Guys only!”
“Well pretend I’m a guys with huge pecks!”
“What?!”
“I wanna come!”
“Go with Ayame!”
“Why?!”
“I said so!”
“What are you gonna do in Tokyo!?”
“None of your business!!”
“Why are you being all secretive?!”
“Why are you yelling at me?!"
"Why won't you let me come?!"
"Because I don't want you to!"
"Why don't you want me to?!"
"Because I want to spend some time away from you! Is that so wrong?!"
I shut up then. Hearing him tell me that was like a slap to the face. I turned away form him, “Meanie…”, I whispered, knowing he would hear me.
YES!!! It’s done!!! I have to say there are only about five more chapters for me to write!! A 20 chapter long story!!! Please review! They make me happy and full!! Fill my belly with reviews!!! grrrr…
Moi-Moi: Thank you very much, Mr.AnnouncerPerson.

Moi-Moi: Get into the mood!!!

Mood: Peppy, but disgusted…
Listening To: “California Girls”, by Katy Perry ft. Snoop Dogg
Notes/Updates: This chappie is the longest one I know of so far!! It’s 12 pages!! Whoo!! I don’t wanna waste anymore time. Let’s start this bitch!!
Kagome banged furiously on the mahogany bathroom door. Her tiny fist was starting to turn red. She tried kicking the door open, but failed.

LATER…
Kagome ran down the stairs and into the living room to find Souta and Inuyasha watching “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End”. Inuyasha was lying on the couch and Souta was on his stomach on the floor. Inuyasha looked to her when she entered. He motioned for her to come over to him. She complied and sat next to him on the couch. Inuyasha pulled the blanket from off of the chair’s arm and covered them with it while she rested her head on his shoulder.

He turned all the way around, forgetting his embarrassment, “Kouga just called and said he had to cancel plans.”
“That’s it? Kouga cancelled on me?”
“Yeah, what were you expecting?”
Are you kidding me? “Well, considering I just was woken with a shock and fell off my bed, I thought you came to check on my well-being.”

Inuyasha left us to go do…something. What could he-?
“Kagome, dear?,” okaa called to me. I turned to her to let her know she had my attention, “have you met Shippou-chan?” I shook my head in the negative. She smiles. I had a funny feeling about this…
~2 hours later~
I was playing Uno with Shippou while okaa made lunch. Otou and Inuyasha were walking out now. I was laying on my stomach I the living room. Inuyasha approached us and sat down with us. Otou came to me and tapped my shoulder. He made a ‘come’ motion with his hand. I had to follow. I followed him to his “study”. It was a library with a wooden desk, two black leather couches, and on the right side of the room the wall was replaced with a wall of glass. I sat down and waited for him to speak. He leaned on his desk. He’s still not talking… how long will it take? One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi, four… I’m bored of it now.
Just then Inuyasha and Okaa walked. Inuyasha sat in the chair behind the desk and began to read a paper. He seems better now. I guess the talk with otou helped.
“Oyaji, what’s this?,” he asked. I knew he wouldn’t understand it… stupid.
“it’s a partnership contract that Unicorp’s lawyers drew up. They want to have an equal partnership with us. I read it and had Sesshoumaru looked it over already.”
“But, if you agree, 5 years from now they’ll have gained more than 82% of the profit,” he stated.
Otou’s face fell. He quickly moved over to Inuyasha and read over his shoulder. Ugh, I hate it when people do that…
“you’re right,” otou said.
Inuyasha actually understood the contract??
“Come with me,” otou said, practically dragging Inuyasha out the door. They took the contract with them. Okaa walked over to the desk with a book in hand. Sitting on the desk, she looked up at me, “Kagome have I ever told you the story of how I met otou?”
“No,” I said. I feel a story time coming on! Where’s my popcorn?
~I GETS LIKE TWILIGHT FROM HER ON OUT~
“Well, I was in my freshman year of college and I hadn’t known what I was going to major in. I just picked something randomly and hoped it worked out. Of course, I chose business. On my first day of class, I didn’t really notice otou. O got there a little late and the only seat available was right next to him. He seemed really… tense.”
Oh. My. God.
“Anyways, the next day he didn’t show up and the day after that. I was pissed. So, when he came back I confronted him. He said hat he was busy. I didn’t believe him. “
“A few months into the year, I was failing. So, I asked the smartest guy in class to help me. Not “tutor”, uttering’s for stupid people.”
~I’m sorry if Izyoi offended anyone!!~
I laughed at that. ~Sorry again! Bad, Kagome…~
“So, he said yes and we started that afternoon. I immediately got better, but naturally, I still needed help. So we kept up the lessons and I noticed he was…cute. Well, not cute. Try down-right, drop-dead gorgeous! Sorry.”
I made a face. She was straying off topic…
“I asked him out and he said yes, but… I had conditions. He would have to pick me up, take me to a restaurant with at least four stars, and drop me home after. He agreed. On the date, I wore a red cocktail dress, I’ll never forget that. We went to a French restaurant on the sea. He was completely boring! Halfway through the meal, he just up and says, “I know you’re not having a good time.” Off course I wasn’t! I would have spilled food on my dress just so I could leave and go to the bathroom and climb out the window! But, then I remembered… we were on a boat.”
I laughed again. Okaa could always make me laugh.
“so, then he says, “You wanna leave?” and I said, “what about the bill?” He didn’t answer me. Instead, he took my hand and led me outside. We went to a secluded part on the yacht and I leaned on the railing. He took my hand and dived into the sea. Next thing I knew, I was on his back while he was swimming to shore. The rest of the night, we spent talking and I found out we had a lot in common. After that, we started going out and next thing I knew we were engaged and it was senior year of college. And I didn’t want to finish it. I told him my decision and he said, “Give me back my ring.”
My jaw dropped. He really said that??
“He really said that,” she said to me.
Is she reading my thoughts?
“I said “no” and he said that if I don’t finish he’s not going to marry me. By then, I was head over heels in love. Do kids still say that? The “head over heels in love” thing? Oh, well. So, I said, “If you love me you’ll let me do this.” and he said, ”Wrong. If I let you drop out, I’ll be the worst fiancée ever.” after 5 hours of yelling at each other I said “fine.” so, I finished, got my degree, got married (and mated), and had Inuyasha. And now I can look back and say, “If he hadn’t told me that, Kami knows where’d I’d be.”
Right then, Inuyasha and otou came back with Sesshoumaru.
“What are you guys talking about?,” otou asked.
“I was just telling Kagome the story of how we met,” Izyoi replied.
“Did you tell her about the time I blew a boat for you?”
“Nani?”
“I was bored one day and said, “Can you blow up a boat?” he took me on a plane and we watched as I pushed the button and blew it up. It was fun,” okaa said. I was speechless.
“That really happened?,” I asked.
“Yep!,” Okaa answered.
“They wouldn’t take me to see it. I had to stay home and watch Inuyasha,” Sesshoumaru grumbled.
“Love you to, Fluffy,” Inuyasha said as he read the back of the book Izyoi was reading.
We spent the res of the afternoon at the house.
~7 o’ clock~
I hugged okaa good night as we were leaving. Inuyasha still hadn’t told me what was wrong…
I waved ‘bye’ from the car as he pulled out of the driveway. Time to get to work…
“What was bothering you before?”
“Nothing,” he replied. I should have expected that.
“Don’t tell me “nothing. Tell me what was wrong.”
“I had a problem.”
“I know that. What was the problem?”
“It’s… complicated.”
“Fine, don’t tell me.” I left it at that. He’ll tell me eventually. He always does, “What are you doing tomorrow?”
“Stuff.”
This is getting ridiculous! “Seriously!”
“I’m going somewhere,” he said.
“Where?”
“You’re not coming.”
“I only asked you “where” not “can I come.”
“Road trip with Miroku to Tokyo.”
“I wanna come!,” I yelled like a child. And so began the yelling contest of questions…
“No!”
“Why not?!”
“Because I said so!”
“Why can’t I come?!”
“Guys only!”
“Well pretend I’m a guys with huge pecks!”
“What?!”
“I wanna come!”
“Go with Ayame!”
“Why?!”
“I said so!”
“What are you gonna do in Tokyo!?”
“None of your business!!”
“Why are you being all secretive?!”
“Why are you yelling at me?!"
"Why won't you let me come?!"
"Because I don't want you to!"
"Why don't you want me to?!"
"Because I want to spend some time away from you! Is that so wrong?!"
I shut up then. Hearing him tell me that was like a slap to the face. I turned away form him, “Meanie…”, I whispered, knowing he would hear me.
