When Inuyasha woke up, every muscle in his body was sore. He felt like he'd been abused and molested by a nympho-maniac demoness. And in a sense he had, he grinned at the sleeping Gypsy beside him.
'My little nympho--' he began musing.
At the door he heard a faint noise that was followed by the scent of Shiori. He sat up assuring that Gypsy was dressed before giving consent to his daughter, she bounded into the room and on his lap like an excited puppy.
"Daddy!" She kissed his cheek. "Will you play with me?"
"Why sure, little girl. Where's your brother or Rin?" Inuyasha ruffled her soft white hair, tweaking a tiny ear as he stood with her. He winced at the watery feel of his overworked thigh muscles.
"I dunno." She shrugged cutely.
He chuckled softly. "Well how 'bout you and I get some breakfast and not wake mommy?"
She nodded wildly. Inuyasha made cereal, the kind with marshmellows that made her too hyper for her own good. As predicted, Shiori was soon wildly digging through the box looking for the little toy that was promised on the box until her dad decided to help her. The hanyou was as impatient as his daughter at being unable to find the toy and his claws ripped the bag, then the box-- sending cereal flying across the room.
"There it is!" Shiori dove for it but Inuyasha grabbed it, sugar high taking over.
"Ha! I'm the one who got it, therefore its mine." Inuyasha stuck out his tongue at his toddler daughter.
"No fair!" She shrieked, chasing after him as he ran. Of course, Inuyasha wasn't running very fast and allowed her to catch him so he could fall into the floor, where she took the toy from him with a victorious yell.
Inuyasha fell limp on the carpet, pretending to be dead. This alarmed Shiori who thought for a moment she may have killed him-- she poked him with a small frown curling her lips down. "Daddy?"
He sprung on her then, pinning her to the floor and raising her shirt so he could tickle her tummy. Amid her giggles he was met with a strong odor that made him wrinkle his nose, "Girl, ain't you potty trained yet?"
She laughed and shook her head, tiny tears of laughter on her soft cheeks. "That mean you gots to do it!"
"I know-- I know," he said making a little face of distaste as he stood her up. He considered waking up Gypsy then thought better of it and grabbed the diaper bag from the closet near the door. "Ok on the couch little one, I ain't real good at this--"
Inuyasha twitched his nose as he undressed his small daughter, praying this wasn't a major accident. And to his relief it wasn't. However, changing a two-year-old who'd just had too much sugar for breakfast was not a job for amateurs such as Inuyasha. He suddenly had a whole new affection for his mate and the maids who assisted her, he'd be sure they all got a bonus for Christmas and Gypsy well-- something special...
The diaper secured, Shiori hopped in front of her father. "Go outside?"
"Yeah, lets get you in some clothes though. Gotta work off this sugar high or your mom will kill me." He muttered, lifting his daughter to his shoulders and jogging up the stairs with her.
Dressing her was no easier than diapering her, and he had to resort to pinning her down and tickling her to get her shirt on right side out. The tiny pair of jeans shorts she picked out to put on she insisted on doing herself, until she tangled herself in them and fell on her bottom pouting. Inuyasha wondered if he'd ever been this adorable as a little pup. Finally dressed in a camoflauge tee and shorts with her favorite little tennis shoes, she reached to be carried outside.

Two eight-year-old's, namely Jace and Bankotsu, were already rough-housing underneath a willow tree well away from the house, Inuyasha smirked at his son's developing fighting skills as he pinned Bankotsu to the ground, suddenly becoming too confident and letting his opponent go as he whooped in victory. Bankotsu took the oppourtunity to flip him over and pin him.
"Too much showing off, Jace!" Inuyasha called, "But you're pretty good."
"Daddy!" Jace broke away from Bankotsu, then pursued by his adopted cousin, raced over to his father. "Aww man, you brought a girl out here?"
"She's your sister and if I were you I'd be nice to her, when she gets older she might be kicking your a-- er, butt out here." He caught the curse in time. Jace already cursed like a sailor. "Where's Rin and the others?"
"Daddy took 'em shopping for clothes." Bankotsu announced, swelling his chest out some. Inuyasha thought he was beginning to look and act more and more like Sesshomaru everyday. Technically after the demon blood ritual, he was Sesshomaru's son now.
"Teach me how to do Wind Scar!" Bankotsu insisted.
"No! He's my dad, he's gonna teach ME!" Jace turned on the other boy with teeth bared.
"I ain't teaching either one of ya anything, but if you keep fighting, I will teach you a lesson you won't forget." His warning tone was enough and they dropped the argument and went back to wrestling. As the hanyou watched his litte girl playing with a purple butterfly that perched on her finger, he thought 'I want another girl next time.'
'Next time?' Inuyasha frowned, 'Gypsy will never consent to another child. What am I saying?'

With his family either gone shopping or outside playing, Inutashio was treated to a peaceful Saturday brunch. He growled in contentment as he sipped his coffee and read the paper. Gypsy entered the room, bringing with her the scent of fresh Spring rain along with her usually musky Vanilla essence.
"Gypsy?" Inutashio spoke with a slight gasp. She turned to him with half sleepy eyes, and for the first time he realized her shorts were a bit too tight, her stomach was swollen. "Oh Gods!"
"Yeah, I know." She looked down guiltily. "I don't know how this could have happened. How did I miss it for so long?"
"Come closer, child. I have an idea about what's going on here." He motioned to a spot beside him and once she'd gotten closer he placed a clawed hand on her stomach. "This is Inuyasha's pup. I suppose you were with child when Izayoi died."
"What about the full moon?" She stared at him with rounded eyes.
"Sometimes the beast will react that way to the full moon no matter what. I did notice that it did not last as long this time. Sometimes a pup will mask itself if it feels endangered, and I'm sure that's what this one has done. He now feels safe with you and Inuyasha and he is ready to make his presence known."
"He?" Gypsy blinked at him. "It's a boy?"
The older demon nodded, "It probably didn't help that you were living in the same house as Kagura, who is also pregnant."
A growl from the doorway drew their attention away from the conversation and into the eyes of a pissed off hanyou who was witnessing the whole scene-- his father caressing his mates swollen belly. "I don't fucking believe this! You fucking pupped my damned mate!"
Inutashio sensed and oncoming attack, although he had hoped Inuyasha was wiser than that. "This child is not mine, Inuyasha. It is yours, take a sniff for yourself."
Inuyasha moved to Gypsy, keeping one eye on his father in distrust. The scent was indeed his own. Now he was confused, "But we only-- last night--how could she be so far gone?"
"My guess is she was pupped before your mother died. Pups, particularly ookami pups will mask their own scent if they feel endangered. You slapped Gypsy, remember? The pup must have felt fear of you and he now feels safe enough to make his presence known. I suggest you prepare quickly." Inutashio left the room, only to be greeted by Rin who was helping the toddling Jakotsu into the living room.
"I thought you didn't want another child." Inuyasha looked down at his mate, worry on his face.
"Well with you off the road, maybe we can be a family again. It will be ok." She kissed his chin softly.
"Gypsy, there's something I haven't told you," Inuyasha shifted his feet, staring at the carpet. "I plan to form another band. I can't just sit here and live off my father's money."
"We still have plenty in the bank--" She stopped when she saw the look of terror on his face. "Don't we?"
"Well-- I kinda made an investment..." He sighed, rubbing his face. Gods, he wanted to melt into the floor now. He had wanted to tell Gypsy last night, but he was distracted.
"You better say you bought a house!" She snapped, suddenly growing angry.
"I um-- well kinda. I bought a studio down on Holland.." He explained brokenly.
Gypsy stared at him in disbelief. "A studio?"
"I plan on producing some bands. Then I can do my own music and we won't have to worry about me being gone on the road if Naraku attacks." He explained it, unable to judge what she was thinking.
Gypsy blinked twice and then smiled, "Thats a great idea-- are you sure it's what you want?"
He nodded, "I want my family."
Gypsy kissed him deeply, her tongue pushing against his, battling for dominance. Making a sound of approval, Inuyasha slipped his hands down to palm her butt, pulling her as close to his chest as he could, and suddenly he felt a hard kick that vibrated he and his mate.
"Your son says hi!" She giggled.
"Son, eh?" He rubbed his chin, regretting his thoughts earlier of wanting a girl...
"Sesshomaru?!?!" Inutashio called from somewhere upstairs, "Do you have the tape with Tetsuaiga demos on it?"
"Yes father," Sesshomaru replied, calling up the stairs. He was greeted by a flurry of squeals from Rin who was happily running around in just her tee-shirt refusing to allow herself caught and bathed. "It is in the damned VCR for the hundreth time!"
"Daddy!!" Rin bounded down the stairs.
"Ewwww shes naked!" Bankotsu closed his eyes in disgust.
"Rin!" Sesshomaru frowned at her, "Go take your bath or I'll come give it to you myself."
"Yay! I want daddy to!" She hugged his leg. He growled and limped upstairs with her attached to his leg.
Gypsy shook her head, "Yeah, it's getting a bit crowded here."
Shiori pounced on her fathers leg from behind. "Me want bath too."
Inuyasha picked her up and cradled her, "Do you promise not to squirt me with that stupid ducky?"
"Ducky no stupid!" She pouted. "But I no squirt daddy."
With a resigned sigh he went off to the other bathroom and started Shioris bath while Gypsy undressed her. They were both thinking the same thing, ironically. The child needed a name. Gypsy cleared her throat, "Your son's gonna require a name, Inuyasha."
"I know-- any ideas?" He looked down at her while tying back his thick mane.
"I'll let you name it, since its a boy." She handed him a now naked Shiori to bathe. The small child wrapped her armas around his neck and squealed.
"Gypsy?" Inuyasha attempted to scrub the little girl with a pink sponge. "Do you really wanna go to that dinner tonight? I still have the tape from the other night-- I was thinking we could hang out in our room and well-- ya know.."
Gypsy blinked, "Think your dad will let us?"

"You're right-- he'd have a cow if we don't show." Inuyasha sounded defeated. "I hate these type of things--"

"I know you do." She rubbed his shoulders, making faces at the splashing baby in the tub. "We still have to get Jace cleaned up for-- tonight."
She felt him tighten under her hands then. He wasn't going to take this well she knew, even though he said he would. Jace was going to spend his first weekend with Kouga. Inutashio had not been too happy either, but agreed with Gypsy that the child needed to see his real father and get to know him. Ayame had left Kouga, taking their son with her a little while after finding out he had sired Jace.
"I don't like the idea of that wolf touching my son-- I mean Jace." Inuyasha stood abruptly, turning his face away from Shiori and Gypsy. "He hasn't been there from the start and I have-- he's MY son."
"I know Inuyasha and I am terribly sorry. None of us intended for this to happen, I just hope you'll forgive me.." She inclined her head in a slight submissive gesture but he pulled her face up.
"This is as much my fault as it is yours. If only I had been more responsible that night and not intiated the threesome..." Inuyasha was cut short by a playful swat to his bottom that made him smirk, then pout. "What was that for?"
"For not letting this drop like I told you to-- this is just something we have to deal with! I swear if you don't stop blaming yourself I'm gonna--" She had no idea where to go with that.
"Mmmm," He wrapped his arms tightly around her, his hands travelling down her backside lightly. "Maybe you need to take me to the room and show me what you'll do."

"Oooooo!" Came the cat-call from the tub. "Mommy and daddy gonna kiss!"
The silver haired hanyou turned loose of Gypsy and whirled on his heels, a smirk curling his lips. "Uh huh, and just wait-- one day you'll be old enough to kiss a boy!"
"Ewww boys are nasty!"
"Hey!" Inuyasha pouted, "What am I?"
She stood so he could wrap her in a towel, "Daddy not a boy! He just daddy."
Inuyasha nuzzled her lightly, rumbling in his chest as she nestled closer. "Gypsy, maybe you better feed her early and put her down for bed before dinner. I don't want anything to ruin this for dad, it means a lot to him."

Inuyasha had a serious case of Deja-vu over dinner.
Inutashio demanded his grandchildren be present at the dinner table in the formal dining room, the first of a series of screw-ups for the night. The newly painted formal dining room was seldom opened and inside was a simple low table that looked a mile long. Inuyasha could remember he and Sesshomaru chasing each other on top of it as kids, he wondered what his father would say if he knew.
He occupied his mind with things more interesting as he ate to chase away the anger and indignation of seeing his first born carried away by what used to be his best friend, Kouga. Jace had seemed pretty happy to go, however. It was unclear rather or not he actually knew what was happening, but the idea was not to force Kouga on him too soon.
