InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ I'm On The Outside ❯ Peaceful Moment Interrupted ( Chapter 13 )

AN: Okay so here's yet another fun chapter, it's really just the continuation of the previous one. Be aware that the next chapter will have a lot of angst to it, but I'm using it to explain exactly what Myouga talked about with Kagome and Inuyasha when he was 13.

 

Just a note for this chapter, I made Inuyasha do something that I've noticed my own dogs do when they're in trouble, aside from rolling over and showing their bellies and their tails between their legs. My Black Lab is famous for using this same trick to get my family members and I to forgive him.

 

Just so you know I've made a yahoo group where I'll be posting updates so that more people can find out when I update. Also it's going to be a place of shameless self promotion, so if you have a story or a picture that you want to post, by all means feel free to do so. Post the link, the story, the picture, whatever you feel like!!!

As always Read and Review.

 

I'm legally required to say that I don't own Inuyasha, but the Hanyou chained to my bed says otherwise…JUST KIDDING!!!!

Sango rang the doorbell impatiently. “Who the hell invites friends over and then isn't home to let them in?”

 

Miroku smirked at his girlfriend's irritability. “Maybe they are here but are engaged in other activities.”

 

“Give it a rest Miroku.” Sango snapped.

 

“Well, Kagome's on the market now and I know that Inuyasha has been waiting for this for awhile!”

 

Sango glared at him and reached for the doorbell again. Miroku stopped her by reaching around her and trying the door.

 

“What are you doing?” She asked as he stepped around her and walked into the house.

 

“I'm going inside. What does it look like?”

 

“Well what if we are interrupting something?”

 

Miroku made a big show of cupping his hands around his ears as if he was trying to capture every sound in the apartment. “Well I don't think we are, unless they're being really quiet.”

 

Sango glared at him and slapped him. “You pervert.”

 

“Well let's go find them.” Miroku said, rubbing his cheek.

 

Sango followed him reluctantly. They checked all the rooms on the main floor before climbing the stairs. Miroku cautiously opened the door to Inuyasha's room but was met with only a rumbled bed and a t-shirt lying on the floor.

 

“Miroku!” Sango whispered.

 

She was standing in the doorway of Shippou's room, a large grin on her face. Miroku made his way over to the door and peered in. His eyes widened at the sight before him.

 

Kagome, Shippou and Inuyasha were all crammed onto the tiny bed. Kagome and Inuyasha were lying on their sides with Shippou crushed between their bodies. Inuyasha's arm was thrown over the two of them protectively and his legs were entwined with Kagome's.

 

They looked like a content little family and Sango couldn't help but let tears spring to her eyes. Inuyasha inhaled deeply and must have caught their scent since his head rose slightly to sniff the air again.

 

“Why is Sango crying?” Inuyasha mumbled softly.

 

“It's nothing.” Sango told him, wiping at her tears.

 

Inuyasha opened his eyes and looked at Kagome and Shippou, as if making sure that they were safe, before looking over his shoulder at them. “What?” He snapped when he noticed the grins they were sporting.

 

“You three just look so adorable.” Sango cooed.

 

“Feh.”

 

They all looked at Kagome in shock. They would have expected Inuyasha to answer that way, not Kagome. “What did you just say?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“You heard me.” Kagome told him. “Shippou, do you want to get up or keep sleeping?”

 

Shippou muttered something close to “lollipops and ramen” before the sound of his soft snores filled the room again. “Lollipops and ramen?” Miroku asked, eyeing Inuyasha. “That sounds like something Inuyasha would dream about.”

 

“Minus the lollipops.” Sango teased.

 

Inuyasha glared at them and was about to say something nasty when Kagome pressed on his stomach as she crawled over him. He rolled over in pain, sending both himself and Kagome crashing to the floor.

 

“What the hell did you do that for?” Kagome snapped.

 

“You're the one who kneed me in the stomach!”

 

“It's not like I did it on purpose!”

 

Sango rolled her eyes and shook her head. They had been so quiet and content only minutes earlier and now they were at each others throats. Finally Inuyasha turned and hit Miroku.

 

“Hey!” Miroku exclaimed, rubbing his head. “What was that for?”

 

“It was either you or her.” Sango said patiently.

 

“So hit Kagome!” Miroku said. “She's the one who started it.”

 

The glare he received from Kagome was enough to make him hide behind Sango. Unfortunately for him, Sango simply shook her head and walked away from him. “Come on Kagome, let's hit up the hot tub.”

 

“Hey!” Inuyasha exclaimed, following them. “You could at least ask first.”

 

Kagome shot him a glare that made his ears shoot back against his head and he dove behind Miroku. Miroku shook his head and followed the girls, briefly wondering how all the arguing hadn't woken Shippou up.

 

“When will you ever learn?” Miroku asked. Sango had disappeared into the bathroom to change while Kagome went to Inuyasha's room.

 

Without thinking, Inuyasha opened the door and stepped into his room. “What the hell are you doing?” Miroku heard Kagome yell.

 

“Sorry.” Inuyasha said. “Ow! Why the fuck did you just throw a pen at me?”

 

“I'm changing in here you idiot!”

 

“It's not like I haven't seen your body before!”

 

Sango exited the bathroom and gave Miroku a questioning look as she adjusted her top. “What's all the yelling for?”

 

“You pervert, we agreed not to bring that up anymore!”

 

“He walked in on her while she was changing.” Miroku told Sango.

 

“Ow!” Inuyasha gasped. Sango and Miroku winced at the sound of a body hitting the floor.

 

Minutes later Kagome stormed from the room. Miroku and Sango looked into the room and found Inuyasha lying on the floor groaning. “What did you do to him?” Miroku asked her.

 

“He grabbed me so I punched him in the stomach.” Kagome said simply.

 

Sango laughed and followed Kagome down the stairs. Miroku entered the room and stood over Inuyasha. “You alright?”

 

“I never knew she could hit so hard.” Inuyasha whined.

 

“Come on, get changed and when we get down to the hot tub you can apologize to her.” Miroku said, helping Inuyasha to his feet.

 

Miroku left the room to let Inuyasha change. The two of them walked down the stairs and out to the backyard. Miroku went to Sango's side and sat next to her. Inuyasha sat near Kagome and tried to catch her eye.

 

Kagome made a point of ignoring him and looked to Sango for help. Sango was listening to something that Miroku was whispering to her. Inuyasha slid closer to her and Kagome found that there was no where she could move to. Inuyasha grinned and wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

 

“Don't you dare!” She told him. Inuyasha licked her under the chin and whined softly. “Argh! I hate it when you do that!”

 

Inuyasha's ears lay flat and he whined low in his throat. Kagome glanced at him and rolled her eyes, only to get another lick under the chin. When she still didn't nod to confirm that she accepted his apology he moved closer to her.

 

Miroku and Sango watched the event in front of them with keen interest. They had seen plenty of fights between Inuyasha and Kagome, but they had never seen him apologize this way before.

 

“Fine!” Kagome's shout made Miroku and Sango jump. “I forgive you!”

 

Inuyasha sat back with a smirk on his face. Never fails. He thought watching Kagome fume. “What?” Inuyasha asked when he saw Miroku staring at him.

 

“What was that?”

 

“That's how Inu-Youkai pups apologize.” Kagome muttered, still glaring at Inuyasha. “And it's Inuyasha's favourite way to apologize to me since his puppy dog look stopped working.”

 

“So how come that works but the puppy dog look doesn't?” Sango asked, barely suppressing her laughter.

 

“Because I don't give up.” Inuyasha smirked.

 

Kagome's left eyebrow raised before she threw a handful of water at him. Inuyasha pushed his wet hair out of his eyes and glared at Kagome. A grin slowly crept across his face before he lunged across the hot-tub at her, starting the inevitable water fight.
