Notice me
A whole day had gone by without the household knowing it. InuYasha and Sesshomaru had decided the day was a good one to work on the newest jeep that was currently torn apart in the garage. It was fast becoming their pride and joy. Sweat and a couple of drops of blood went into making this jeep look decent enough to take somewhere to show off. The CJ-7 had seen a better day that was for sure, but the brothers could try and make her new again.
Body meant nothing to them. It was just a detail that was probably bound to be scratched the first time they took the beater out. It was inevitable that it was just going to end up with a natural patina from the trees and rocks it was going to come in contact with. Therefore, they concentrated on making the engine work. It was an odd sight for sure that the two were being civil to one another while fiddling with the carburetor. There was generally absolute silence in the garage save the few expletives that exploded as knuckles were bashed and parts fell from clawed hands.
The two were clad in Carhartt coveralls that were dark blue. There was primer, bondo and grease everywhere on the cloth. Their hair even had traces of grease even though they both had their long hair tied back into low braids that kept it from dragging in the worst messes. They were coming along magnificently, and without too many squabbles that would inevitably into a fist fight. Eventually, they would both smirk and go back to what they were doing.
Kagome and Rin on the other hand were concentrating on having a girl's day. They had decided that it was owed to them since the boys were being typical guys and ignoring them to play with their toy cars. Kagome couldn't help but notice that Rin was growing at an intolerable rate. It seemed just yesterday Sesshomaru had taken the imp in and given her the home and love she deserved after a difficult start in life. Now she was a very mature seven year old, soon to be eight, and it was horrifying Kagome to think that the little girl was growing up.
In an effort to have more time with the girl on girl terms, she decided to do all girly things today with Rin. They turned the bathroom in Kagome and InuYasha's wing into a working spa. They were doing facials and manicures and pedicures, making themselves pretty for the men in their lives.
At the moment, Rin was reclined back in the hair station chair while the mud pack on her face dried. Kagome laughed silently to herself as she looked at the little girl with a green face and cucumber over her eyes. She was every bit the diva she pretended to be in that chair. Her little face was relaxed and smiling as ever. Her whole aura surrounded the room and engulfed all who walked by. It was just a magical day between girls.
After the French manicures and pedicures were over, they played dress up. Rin took to trying on Kagome's clothes as she strove to look older then she was. She was wearing a short skirt, which went past her knees as it was Kagome's and a green halter top. The black shiny shoes were four sizes too big but she managed to hobble around the room in them. Kagome couldn't stifle the laugh this time as Rin posed in front of the mirror and pursed her lips in a very Hollywood pose. Sesshomaru would kill her if he knew she was letting Rin do this, but it was a selfish pleasure after all the mistreated children she had seen that she spent what she considered quality time with the little girl that meant so much to her.
It was heading on to dinner time as the guys came in to wash up after the long day in the garage. Sesshomaru was impressed. They had gotten through the day without breaking anything, including each other's heads, and they engine had promise of turning over with a little more work. He looked at his brother and snorted. It was as close to a laugh as he would come when Kagome was not in the room. His brother was filthy and he had not problem telling him.
Baka, you look like you just came from a junk yard. I think I shall call you the 'Junk Yard Dog' for now. He snorted derisively at the hanyou.
And do tell, what do you think you look like asshole? The hanyou shot back at the older Youkai.
Kagome and Rin chose that moment to walk in sporting their new looks. Kagome sensing the tension between the inu brothers, sought to dispel it as the beauties strode into the room. We say you both look like you need a day at the spa quipped the seven year old looking at Kagome for reinforcement. All that came to mind for Kagome was 'ah from the mouths of babes'. She couldn't help but laugh at the twin looks of incredulity the men shot them.
With the grease smear that ran from the tip of his ear to the bottom of his braid, InuYasha did look the part of the Junk Yard Dog as his brother affectionately termed him. However, Sesshomaru didn't look much better as he must have grabbed his chin in concentration at one point and rubbed for there was black grease all over his chin.
An ear to ear grin came to InuYasha's face as he decided to come after the girls for a hug, sending both squealing in a low tone and running for cover at the aspect of the grease monkey hugging them. Sesshomaru merely shook his head and went in search of a shower before dinner. Both had failed to notice the new looks the girls had. Something they would probably regret at a later time.
~*~the dinner party~*~
Again having a girl's day, it meant that the guys would have to suffer through a formal dinner with the two beauties. Meeting at the conjoined stairs the two men offered their arms to the ladies to escort them to the formal dining room. It was a requirement that they be dressed in business casual clothes and be on their best behavior.
The dinner was prepared by the chefs of the house to the ladies request. They were having Cornish game hens with stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy and corn. Both Rin and Kagome loved comfort food, and the attempt to get the guys to eat something and have that something not be pizza was overwhelming. Again finding himself eating, Sesshomaru could only think that it was at least something fitting for a dog demon to eat, it was at least prey.
The feeling in the room was relaxed as the girls listened to the stories from the garage. How the baka did this and the asshole did that was a hot topic of conversation. It was a testosterone play for the men to see who could come up with the best embarrassing story about the other one. The ladies, being ladies, nodded, smiled and 'uh huh-ed' in the right places. At least they were all together and having a decent conversation together.
Noticed however by the lovely women, was that they were never complimented by the men. Rin didn't particularly care as she was too young, but Kagome was upset that neither said how radiant she looked. She decided to pout after Rin went to bed so that she wouldn't upset the younger girl's fun. She would get her revenge for not being noticed.
Time for bed Rin Sesshomaru toned in a quiet fatherly tenor. The little girl pouted prettily as she wanted to stay up longer. But her eyelids drooped as she sat there and he sensed that she was just about to nod off. He shook his head and moved to pick her up and take her off to bed. As he picked her up she mumbled something about another day at the spa. He shot Kagome a look that said stop influencing my little girl and she giggled at him. It was her deviant pleasure to make sure that girl had a wonderful childhood.
After Sesshomaru and Rin left the room, Kagome's face turned into an absolute pout. She pinned her gaze in InuYasha who was currently finding his cufflink the most interesting thing on the earth. He could almost hear the pout from next to him. He cringed, now what had he done?
You didn't say how I looked tonight! she pouted at him. He sighed. It had been coming all night and he was avoiding it like the plague. He knew he wasn't good with words and was worried about screwing up telling her how spectacularly radiant she looked tonight. It was almost painful to look at her with how much she was glowing.
He finally dragged his eyes from his cuff to her eyes. You are the most gorgeous creature on the face of the earth tonight.
He completely caught her off guard. It was one of the most eloquent sentences she had ever heard him speak and she didn't know how to respond. Her initial reaction won out after she changed her tone to teasing. Just tonight? Not always? She continued to pout to emphasize her point.
He got up and went over to her. He bent down and placed a chaste kiss on her lips before pulling back. Her body went into overdrive as she stiffened in the chair. ' He had just kissed her!' She felt like screaming crying and laughing all at the same time. Instead she jumped into his arms sprinkling thank you across his neck. It was her turn to catch him off guard, and he was reveling in it.
From the doorway, a very jealous look was directed their way. Sesshomaru stood there thinking how that could be Kagura and himself. He cursed his luck as he wondered where his lost love was.
Oh god, the WAFFY- ness is killing me. Gag me with a spoon. Did that all really come out of me? Anyway, sorry for the long absence. It's been rough. Please read and review!
