InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Silver Tears and Puppy Ears ❯ English ( Chapter 18 )

English

Inu Yasha couldn't help but laugh when he saw the fight over the room, he really didn't understand why they were fighting over them. They were exactly the same; his only guess was Miroku had suggested sharing the room Sango chose. Kagome was in their room setting up Shippo's crib that she missed the entire fight but she probably heard it… Miroku reluctantly went to the other room, Sango had not even given him a chance this time, she just hit him and walked away. Miroku sighed as he dropped his bag onto the bed and sat down next to it. He didn't know why he felt this way, but this vacation was his and Sango's last chance to get it right.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm starving" Kagome said as she walked back into the main room.

"So then why don't we go get some dinner?" Sango suggested from her room.

"Food would be nice" Miroku said as he left his room.

"Inu Yasha?" Kagome asked when he didn't say anything.

"Huh?"

"Food, eat, you want to?" Kagome said

"Sure" Inu Yasha answered.

"Lets go then" Sango said as she opened the door.

"Where?" Inu Yasha asked.

"To eat dinner… what has you so distracted" Kagome asked.

"Oh… nothing" Inu Yasha said. Kagome groaned and went to look at whatever Inu Yasha was looking at. He was looking down at the water watching the people swimming.

"What are you looking at" Kagome said annoyed.

"I could have sworn I sensed a youkai down there, but when I watch or look, I can't pick it out"

"A youkai, here, but there are no youkai in my time" Kagome declared.

"I'm not so sure…" he said still watching all the people.

"Well we'll all keep an eye out for them, in the mean time, I'm really hungry" Kagome whined.

"Ok, ok, we'll go get some food, where do you want to go" Inu Yasha finally agreed.

"There's a restaurant downstairs" Kagome said happily as she put Shippo back in his stroller and went straight for the door.

"What kind of food do they have here" Inu Yasha asked after the waitress walked away.

"Lets look at the menu then" Kagome said handing one to each of them.

"Oh, this is like the food at that place your mother took us to" Sango said while she looked through it.

"So, have you chosen what you'd like" the waitress asked when she returned.

"I think so" Kagome answered. The girl took their orders and left. She returned with their drinks and then left again. Kagome sighed as she watched her friends enjoy their alcohol; she had always wanted to try those little umbrella drinks.

"What's wrong Kagome" Sango asked.

"Oh its nothing, I've just always wanted to try one of those" Kagome said.

"Why cant you" Miroku asked.

"Because she's pregnant you moron" Inu Yasha said roughly.

"Your not supposed to intake alcohol when you're pregnant" Kagome explained.

"oh, ok" Miroku said, shifting his chair away from Inu Yasha. The waitress returned with their food. There was minimal conversation during dinner and everyone was exhausted from the day so they agreed to go back to the room to sleep at the end of dinner.

Kagome woke up to find Inu Yasha missing from their bed. Confused Kagome sat up and looked around the room for him, the door to the balcony open. Kagome got out of bed and grabbed the robe from her wardrobe and walked onto the balcony.

"Inu Yasha?"

"I'm not crazy, I know I sense something, focus, maybe you'll sense it to"

"Inu-" Kagome froze mid sentence when she felt something very odd and familiar…

"What the" Kagome said perplexed

"I know, I don't know what to think either" Inu Yasha said

"You recognize it as well?" she questioned looking over at him.

"It is definitely not human" Inu Yasha said as he protectively put an arm around her shoulder. Kagome stretched her senses out and tried to focus on the aura.

"All I can get… is that it's not evil" Kagome said confused. Inu Yasha looked at Kagome and then also focused on it as well, she was right…

"Its not" Inu Yasha agreed dumbfounded.

"It disappeared!" Kagome said suddenly.

"This is really starting to bug me" Inu Yasha said flexing his fingers. Kagome noticed and grabbed his hand.

"Whatever it is, its not evil as far as we know, so lets just have a good time" Kagome said soothingly. Inu Yasha sighed and was about to argue when Shippo started crying. Kagome quickly ran back into the room and swooped Shippo out of his crib. Inu Yasha walked back into the room and locked the door to the balcony.

"You know, we're 5 floors up, you really don't need to-"

"Did we not sense that youkai" Inu Yasha said matter-of-factly.

"In which neither of us could sense evil?" Kagome stated. Inu Yasha groaned and walked out of the room.

"Inu Yasha wait your not-"

Sango looked up when she heard someone leaving Kagome's room and almost fainted when she saw him.

"In Inu Yasha?" Sango stuttered.

"What are you gawking at?" Inu Yasha demanded. Sango only blushed further and refused to look back up.

"Hey, I asked you a ques-"

"INU YASHAA!" Kagome yelled from the doorway.

"What is with you two?" he said extremely pissed off.

"Your naked still" Kagome said desperately trying not to laugh. Inu Yasha eyes widened and his eyes darted down to reveal that he indeed was naked. He raced out of the room and slammed the door behind him. Sango still refused to look up at Kagome.

"Its ok Sango" Kagome said as she sat down next to Sango. Sango was still blushing furiously.

"I'm sorry" Sango mumbled.

"Really its ok, its his own fault" Kagome said giggling.

"I HEARD THAT" Inu Yasha yelled from the other room. Sango couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm not sorry that I saw, I'm sorry that I looked" Sango whispered. Kagome smiled and looked away from Sango.

"Its really ok" Kagome insisted.

"…You are…. very lucky" Sango said, her voice so low, that Kagome could only hear it because of her advanced hearing. Kagome gasped when she realized why Sango was so embarrassed.

"Thank you" Kagome said bewildered. Unable to hold back any longer Kagome and Sango began laughing hysterically. Inu Yasha walked back out of the room, now wearing pants. He glared at the two and they only laughed harder. Inu Yasha growled and grabbed a muffin from the counter and sat down with his back to them. Miroku walked out of his room and looked from Sango and Kagome to Inu Yasha.

"Did I miss something?" he questioned.

"No" Inu Yasha spat.

"Yeah, it was nothing, just Inu Yasha walking out of our room naked" Kagome said, her and Sango started laughing again as Inu Yasha face turned bright red. Miroku forced himself not to laugh and sat down across from Sango and Kagome.

"So what are we going to do today?" Sango asked, trying to lighten the tension in the room.

"Oh how about we go down to the beach and just spend the morning relaxing and swimming" Kagome said eagerly.

"That sounds good, Inu Yasha will wear a suit I presume" Miroku teased. Inu Yasha was up and grabbed Miroku round the neck and held him a few inches over the ground.

"You think its funny huh" he threatened.

"Inu Yasha put Miroku down" Kagome demanded

"Feh" Inu Yasha grunted as he dropped Miroku in a heap on the ground. Kagome rolled her eyes and went back into her room to change.

"I think I'll go change also" Sango said getting up.

"Umm… yeah" Miroku mumbled as he went back into his room.

"Kagome your time is quiet…beautiful" Miroku said dazed as they walked down to the beach and a group of bikini clad teenagers smiled and giggled at him. Kagome noticed the hurt look in Sango's eyes from Miroku's behavior but did not say anything. Inu Yasha was being very quiet the entire walk from the hotel, he was sure that he sensed it again, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He wondered if Kagome was right and it really wasn't evil. Yet… if it was he could use a good fight, he was pretty annoyed from earlier still, never in his entire life had he felt so mortified, he had exposed everything to Sango and he heard her tell Kagome she was very lucky.

"Oh here's a good spot, there's some shade so Shippo wont be sitting in the sun" Kagome said ushering her friends over to set up the blanket and claim the spot before someone else did. It was a very fun day they spent the bulk of it baking on the towel until Kagome dragged them into the water. Shippo had freaked out when she first got him wet but as soon as Inu Yasha came running and swam with them he calmed down. They both had to be careful not to get the tops of their heads wet because if that happened, who knew what might happen. A group of American boys around their age had come over to try and get Sango's attention at one point, but when they realized that Sango didn't speak English and not one of them knew a word of Japanese they had given up, which made Miroku happy. What didn't was when Sango had asked Kagome if she spoke English when they were walking back to the hotel. Kagome had said yes and Sango asked her to teach her. What made it all even worse, was Kagome had agreed to teach all of them, so now when those American boys came back, not only would Sango understand them, but he would as well. Inu Yasha had the greatest timing to have his comeback, saying that maybe now those American girls that he asked to bear his children would be able to understand the next time he asked. He had to admit, he rather disliked the taste of sand. The entire night Sango had not spoken to him. When they were on the way to dinner and at dinner and even on the way back, despite the addition of alcohol, she made it a point to shun him as if he wasn't in the room or even in the same era as her. Tomorrow was not going to be fun, Kagome had promised at dinner after much begging from Kagome that she would start teaching her the basics of English when they got back to the room. That was the one time Sango acknowledged his presence, by reminding Kagome that the first thing she needed to teach Miroku to say was, I'm a lecherous pig would you please bear my child. Inu Yasha had enjoyed it all very much, maybe next time the monk would know better than to piss him off. Not wanting to be rude Miroku stayed and listened to the English lessons, the language was very confusing and he was very sure that there was no way Sango would learn enough before they left. Surprisingly Inu Yasha picked it up the fastest. By the end of the night the three of them were able to understand a good deal of what Kagome said when speaking in English, but they themselves couldn't say very much. So even if Sango could understand them, they still couldn't understand her. He even made a point to not pay attention when Sango and Inu Yasha forced Kagome to teach them how to say would you bear my child. Inu Yasha had asked her what the English word for osuwari and then jumped up and shouted "I KNEW IT, you said it once and I got my face slammed into the dirt, then you asked me if you had said osuwari and I got slammed into the dirt again then you pretended it was all an accident".
