Sorry for the long wait. There's absolutely no excuse for it. (Well, actually I do have an excuse but…he he.) Anyway, to make it up to you, I'll release the next chapter really early, by say, Sunday. Again, sorry for the late chapter. Hope you like it!

RECAP
“Oh. I forgot to tell you. My brother is having a photo shoot today and there's an after party so I'm stuck babysitting his kid. Miroku decided to help out, but he's not exactly reliable so I invited Sango, but Sango will probably be busy with Miroku I don't know much about kids, so I was wondering...if you could...”
Kagome shook her head. “Your brother has a kid?”
He tried to explain. “Well sort of. He kind of like adopted her.”
“Aw, Kawaii! Adopting a little girl, just like that. He's so kind and caring.” She said with stars in her eyes.
`You have got to be kidding me.' He thought in disbelief. “Will you help me or not?”
She pondered this for a while. “Do I get to meet your brother?” She asked hopefully.
“Why would you was to meet him anyway?” He asked her.
She blushed. “Oh no reason.” She said a little too quickly.
“Feh, whatever. Yeah, he'll be home late though. You'd have to stay over if you actually want to see him. I'm not sure if he'd actually talk to you, though.”
“Now what is that supposed to mean?” She asked.
`There goes that vein again. “Well, he's not exactly social. Or friendly.”
She frowned. “Oh, well. I'll help you baby sit, but only if Sango comes, but I'm not sure if my mom will let me sleep over. And you have to introduce me to Sesshomaru.”
“I already asked her. She's fine with it.”
`Oh well. At least I'll get to see Sesshomaru. I can't pass that up.' “Okay I'll do it.” She agreed.
`Why don't I like where this is going?'

Chapter 7: Some Bad Driving and a Grand Tour
“Could you stop that?” Kagome asked Inuyasha, who was sitting on the floor in her room with one leg up against his chest and the other leg crossed under it.
“Stop what?” He asked.
“Shaking your leg like that. It's getting annoying.” She told him packing a brush and comb in the famous big yellow backpack.
He looked at his leg and indeed, it was shaking. “Well, if you would hurry up!” He said, pushing down on his leg with his hand. When that didn't help, he tried to use his arm.
“Just be patient. Acting like a Red Lab waiting for food isn't going to make me pack any faster.” She was packing for the night at Inuyasha's house. `I wonder what it's like there. Sango said his house was bigger than hers. She's got a really big house, even though she shares with Miroku. They must be really rich because it's almost ten times the size of mine.'
She had packed a new pair of jeans that she had bought at Pac Sun for thirty-five dollars. `It was worth it, I suppose.' She then packed a black with bold white letters going across the chest saying, “I think we should name it Kyoto.” On the back it said, “Well, Either that or Bob.” She began to look for her favorite pajama shorts. She had bought them at Victoria's Secret a while ago. Shuffling through her drawers, she pulled out a white cami. `Well at least I found the top. I remember throwing the bottom somewhere.' She walked over to Inuyasha and started trying to lift him up by his arms.
“Oi, W-Kagome. What the hell are you doing?” He said standing up.
“Hm, just as I thought.” She said smugly, picking up her shorts.
“What?” He asked as she turned around to put them into her bag.
“Hm? Oh, you were sitting on my shorts.”
“GAH!” He said slamming into the ground. `Why didn't I see that coming?'
Finally, she turned around with the bag on her back and looked at Inuyasha who was sprawled out on the floor. “You were telling me to hurry up and now you're taking a nap. Figures.” She huffed walking out the door. “I'm in the car.”
“That stupid wench is trying to kill me.” He muttered into the floor. After a few seconds, he peeled himself off of the floor and made his way to the car.
“Took you long enough.” She said.
“Feh.” He simply said and started the car. He could tell that she was baiting him. `Probably so we'll get into a fight and then she can go complain to Sango. When did she get so...little kid like?'
“Humph.” She pouted.
He looked at her. `She looks cute like that.'
“INUYASHA! Red light!” She suddenly screamed.
“Shit!” He slammed on the brakes. Realizing that he was already in the middle of the road, he just drove on. `Maybe I shouldn't think about that stuff while I'm driving.' He heard Kagome mutter something like, “Stupid Inu-Baka doesn't know how to drive.” and “Going to get us both killed.”
“Inu-yasha.” She whispered. “Inuyasha. Oh now I get it. Ha...Kouga.” She said shaking her head.
“WHAT!” Inuyasha yelled, slamming on the brakes again. `How dare she say that mangy wolf's name in my car?'
She turned to him, somewhat annoyed. “Did you know that your name means dog demon?” She turned back to facing the front of the car laughing. “Mutt-face. Dog breath” She said shaking her head.
He cringed, his face getting redder at each of the nicknames. Then he smirked. “Oh yeah? Do you wanna know what he calls you?”
She stopped laughing and looked at him curiously. “What?”
“Uh-uh. I'm not telling you that fast. We gotta make another deal.” He said shaking a finger at her.
“You and your deals,” she said rolling her eyes. “Okay, what do I have to do now?”
He thought for a moment then smirked. “You have to tuck me in tonight.”
“What?! That's a rip-off.” She exclaimed.
“Fine.” He huffed. “I'll tell you what Kouga says and I'll owe you another favor.”
“Okay.” She said slowly. “I'll do it. Now tell me what he calls me.”
“Kagome. Duh, that's your name.” `Ha, she's so gullible.'
“Inuyasha!”
“We're here. And by the way, Sesshomaru has two kids.” He said turning off the engine and stepping out of the car.
“Inuyasha!” She yelled again, scrambling out of the car and following him to the door. “Inuyasha, you so timed that.” She said angrily.
“Did I now? Oi Sango, Miroku!” He said stepping inside the house...erm I mean mansion.
“Hey Inuyasha.” They answered. “Hey Kagome.” They said when they saw Kagome behind him.
Kagome just stomped inside, grumbling about bad drivers and bed time stories.
They went to the living room to sit and talk. Kagome wanted to sit with Sango but, Sango wanted to sit with Miroku. So, she ended up sitting next to Inuyasha, making it very hard to ignore him.
“Miroku, If you don't stop wearing those beads around you neck, people are gonna start to think you're gay.” Inuyasha said.
“I like my beads.” He said, rubbing the prayer beads that had once been on his arm. When everyone stared at him blankly, he tried to change the subject. “So. Inuyasha. I heard you slept over Kagome's house last night. You must have been pretty tired if you couldn't drive home. So, what is it that you two were doing that you we're so...well...tired?” Miroku asked with his infamous lecherous grin.
Sango smacked him in the head. “Get your mind outta the gutter, houshi.”
“Pervert.” Inuyasha and Kagome muttered.
A few minutes of awkward silence passed, wherein everyone tried to occupy themselves by looking around the room.
RUB RUB
Just before Sango was about to smack Miroku again, the front door banged open.
“Rin and Shippo are here!” A little girl's voice rang out.
“We're in here runts.” Inuyasha answered.
There were some muffled sounds then footsteps rapidly approaching. A short, black haired girl appeared in the doorway dragging a taller orange haired boy with her.
Shippo's eyes widened. “Kagome!” He yelled and ran to her.
The next thing Kagome knew, she had a rather heavy teenaged boy in her lap, hugging her to death.
When he finally let her out of his death grip she put a finger on her chin. “Hmm. Inuyasha said Rin was a girl so you must be Shippo.” She said to him.
His smile faded and turned into a frown. “Oh yeah. I forgot.”
“Forgot what?” She asked him. A thought registered in her head. “Wait a minute. You're that boy from the school. Inuyasha, I thought you said that Sesshomaru's kid…kids were home-schooled.”
“They are. I just got the runt to come in for a day so I could get you into that closet.” Inuyasha replied not realizing how wrong it sounded.
“Don't even say it.”Sango warned Miroku.
Rin spoke before him. “Wow Kagome. You're really pretty. Will you play with Shippo and Rin after dinner?”
“Sure, Rin.” She answered.
“Thank you.” She stretched her hand out to Shippo. “Come on Shippo. Let's go torture Jaken.”
Shippo smiled and took her hand. “Bye!” They said as they ran away.
The awkward silence once again began to creep up on them.
Sango and Miroku shifted uneasily on the couch.
Inuyasha had enough. “Geez, if you guys wanna make out so bad just do it already!”
They blushed and just started making out on the couch.
“Blunt as always, I see.” Kagome said, rolling her eyes.
Inuyasha feh'd and got off the couch and walked over to the door. When he looked back, Kagome was still on the couch looking at Sango and Miroku. "Are you just gonna sit there and stare at them all day? Cause that's probably how long they'll be goin at it.” Inuyasha said.
Kagome blushed and got off the couch, following him. They left the room, Inuyasha remembering to lock the door. `Sesshomaru would kill me if Rin saw that.' He shuddered as he thought of all the ways Sesshomaru could kill him. He walked to the front door and she followed. “This is the front door. You use it to get in and out of the house.”
“Inuyasha.” Kagome said warningly.
“Feh, I just wanted to make sure that you don't get lost. Sorry for caring.” He said, turning his back on her and feigning anger.
“Inuyasha, that not what I-”
He pointed to a door on the right side of the lobby. “The dining room is over there.” He walked up one of the two sets of stairs and opened a set of double doors. Behind them, a long hall stretched and finally split into three different directions. Kagome stood there gaping as he moved forward. Rolling his eyes, he pulled her towards the split and turned to the right. “The guest rooms are over there. I don't know which room you are staying in yet, I'll have to ask Sesshomaru when he comes home.”
“Okay.” She said, still in awe.
Kagome made a move to walk down the dark hall, but Inuyasha stopped her by putting a hand on her shoulder. “Sesshomaru's quarters are down that hall. Nobody is allowed there except for him and Rin. You are never to go there unless accompanied by him. You probably won't ever be able to move again if he catches you snooping in there.”
“Oh. Wow.”
He led her down the hall to the left, saving his room for last. “And this,” he said pointing to his door. “Is my room.” Kagome went to reach for the knob, but Inuyasha grabbed her hand and led her away. “That, you won't see until tonight. It's a surprise.” He said and walked back into the lobby, leaving her behind.
“Ooh, suspense.” She said sarcastically and followed him.
