So I decided to take a stab at a drabble series. I have been largely inspired by my favorite authoress, Forthright. I highly suggest you check out her stuff. Its amazing! This particular idea was given to me as I listened to "Little Moments" by Brad Paisley.
Explanation: This series will follow the first year of the newly mated couple of Kagome and Inuyasha. It will be small highlights throughout their relationship, moments when they remind each other why they love one another.
Disclaimer: I claim no ownership over these characters. They belong to the lovely Rumiko Takahashi! I just like to borrow them from time to time.
Updates will be short! You can expect to see a few updates a week unless otherwise noted. Now on with the show!
Little Moments – Family Portrait
Inuyasha brushed the bangs out of his eyes, secretly glad that he let Kagome pull his hair back into a braid. It was a hot summer day and the heat from the grill wasn't helping. The smell of sizzling hamburgers and hot dogs made his stomach growl.
He looked up from his position in the porch to watch Kagome in the backyard with the kids. They had agreed to look after Rin while Sesshoumaru was away at a conference that weekend. Kagome decided to invite Shippo as well, turning it into a big sleepover. She was currently engaged in a game of tag, chasing after the giggling children, flowers that they had picked earlier stuck haphazardly in her hair.
They had been at it all morning, all of them with seemingly endless amounts of energy. He snorted as the kids conspired against her, turning the tables and giving her chase. Then ended in a giggling pile of twisted limbs.
Turning his attention back to the grill, Inuyasha flipped a burger, a hiss of steam brushing past his face. Though he would never admit it, it was nice having the kids over. The house was full of laughter and cheer, something he could get used to.
He noticed Kagome had gathered everyone in the shade underneath the large oak tree. Rin's soft exclamation of "tell us a story!" floated to his ears. Unbeknownst to him, Inuyasha's expression softened at the sight. Kagome sat cross legged in the grass with her back against the old tree, Shippo planted firmly in her lap and Rin snuggled as close as she could get. She had their rapt attention.
She looked so natural surround by children, and he couldn't help but imagine his own dog-ear pups vying for her attention. Inuyasha cocked an eyebrow at the odd thought. Was he seriously thinking of kids already? Sure, he wanted to have them, but not just yet. Glancing back at his mate, he knew she would be a wonderful mother. He could only hope he would be a half decent father.
No, they might not be ready just yet, but the time would surely come. Satisfied that the food was all done, he transferred everything over to a serving platter. Raising his voice, he barked out to the oblivious group. "You all better get your butts in here before I decided to eat everything myself!"
He had to hold back a laugh at the three startled faces that stared back at him. A heart beat later they were all scrambling, racing for the door. As he started doling out portions with a half-hearted grumble, Inuyasha couldn't help himself thinking, 'Ya, I could definitely get used to this.'
A/N: Whew 20 chapters already! I hope you all are still enjoying it. Some special love to SplendentGoddess! I had wondered where you wandered off to hehe. I just recently read your story B & B. To anyone that hasn't read it, you should definitely check it out! Please continue to let me know what you think! ^_^
