Yasha's house...
The young couple were startled by the sudden appearance of Keade. She was standing in the doorway, Her hands on her hips tapping her foot. She stared at the 2, ire flaming from her eyes. Inwardly, biting her tongue to keep from laughing. "Well, children? I'm waiting for an answer."
"Ah, gram! It's not what you think!" Pleaded InuYasha, who was on top of InuYasha, straddling his waist. One hand griping the lapel of his dark gray Armani business suit. While the other was wrapped around his silk navy blue tie.
"Yes, Gram. There's an extremely good explanation for this." Sess said from his position on the floor, where he lay pinned underneath his beloved.
To Keade, he seemed to be enjoying his predicament. "Oh, really?" Said Keade, crossing her arms over her chest. "I would love to hear this. But first, Sesshomaru-sama, I would like for you to come downstairs with me. That is if Yasha, would be so kind as to - GET OFF YOU AND GET HERSELF PRESENTABLE!!!" She then turned and walked downstairs with Sesshomaru following close behind.
Once back in the kitchen, Keade sipped on a cup of tea. As Sesshomaru and InuYasha, who was now dressed again, tried to explain what was happening. 'No wonder Juromaru was so amused as he past me, when I came in.' She thought to herself. The scene of Inu and Sess wrestling around in her room, was priceless! 'Ah! To be young and so in love! How I remember those days!'
"Gram," Sess started. "I am here because my Aunt Tokio had something delicate to discuss with Inu."
"That's right Gram! It was totally innocent! Turning to him, "tell her, Sess!"
"Yes, very innocent. Then when Toki left, Yasha and I were alone." Yasha was nodding in agreement. "So, I proceeded to chase Inu around the house and up the stairs."
"That's right, Gram! He di... SESS!" Yasha yelled as she smacked him upside the head. Keade nearly dropped her tea.
"Ow!" Sess whined as he turned to his love. "Why did you hit me? You're the one who told me to explain to her."
"I said 'explain' why she found us upstairs like that! Not to tell her about how we got upstairs, you fool!"
"Ohh, okay, dear." He smiled and looked at a very amused Keade. "Gram, I refused to tell Yasha were we are going on our honeymoon. So, she was trying to beat it out of me." Leaning close to Keade, he added. "And, it was a most enjoyable fight, as well!"
"SESS!" She yelled as she smacked him again. Keade chuckled lowly while blushing. "That IS my grandmother your talking too!" She continued to yell, striking him all the while.
"Dearest, she did say that she wanted to know what we were doing!" He laughed while dodging her attacks. "You wouldn't want me to lie to my future grandmother in law, would you? Come on now, beloved, stop it."
Keade watched this comic routine for several minutes, before ordering Inu to stop. Turning to Sess, she smiled. "Sesshomaru dear, will you and Rin be joining us for dinner tonight?"
"Alas, no Gram. I have a dinner meeting with a very important client this evening. But, how about tomorrow night at my place?"
"I have nothing to do, do you Yasha?" She asked her beautiful, yet still stewing granddaughter. Tapping her on the head, she told InuYasha to stop being a baby. Then she told him they would be joining him at dinner the next evening.
Standing, Sess walked over to Keade. "I must be going, I still have a lot of things to clear up at the office. I need to be getting back." Leaning down his kissed Keade lightly on the cheek, "until tomorrow, Gram." Turning from the blushing elderly woman, he pulled Inu out of her chair. "Stop pouting, my hime! I still love you! Trust me, our honeymoon will be one that neither of us will ever forget!"
"Feh! Like I care anymore! You know, you may just be going by yourself!" She huffed!
"Aww! Come now, love, don't be that way." He murmured, as he started to kiss that cute little pout from her soft lips. Nibbling lightly on her full bottom lip. Moaning, Inu leans into Sess' powerful embrace. Her hands reaching up to pull his head down farther, trying to deepen the kiss. Sess grabbed her tighter, crushing her soft lush curves hard to himself. He reached down and gripped her bottom, giving it a quick squeeze.
"MMMMMMMM!"
"Okay you two. That will be quite enough of that!" Keade chuckled, as she pulled the two lovebirds apart. "Save some of that for your honeymoon trip!" Then looking at Sess, "Sesshomaru dear, since the Sui-sensei's office is along the way to yours, would you mind giving this old woman a ride?"
"Of course, Gram!"
InuYasha then remembered something. "Gram? Why'd you come here anyway?"
"Oh, I forgot my medical card. Sui sensei, told me that I needed to records." Picking up her bag, she turned to Sess. "I'm ready, dear boy." With a quick kiss on Inu's cheek, She and Sess where gone.
Closing the door, InuYasha sighed wistfully as she leaned against it. "Oh, what a man!" Then suddenly she remembered. "That dirty lowdown son of a dog!" She said stomping her foot in anger, "He still didn't tell me where we're going! Damn him!" She went back into the kitchen to clean up and get dinner started. 'I'll get him to tell me! Even if I have to tie him up and torture him to do it!' A soft smile formed over her sweet face, as the events of the past hour replayed in her mind. Suddenly, she gasped, as she put her hand to her mouth. 'I didn't feel afraid!' She thought, 'Sess and I almost made love, and I didn't pull away or fight him! For the first time, I wasn't afraid!' Yasha giggled softly as a feeling of warmth and security washed over her. She realized for the first time she was free. Free from her past. Free from her fear. Free to love the man she had waited years for! She was free.
Yasha's After Dinner...
It was 7:30 when Inu and Gram had just finished dinner and where straightening up the kitchen. Yasha had put a pot of water for fresh tea, when the doorbell rang.
"I wonder who that could be?" Keade said, as she wiped her hands on her apron. "Inu dear, could you finish up with the dishes?"
"Yes, Gram." Yasha took the apron from her and put it on, turning to tackle the pots and pans that where left. Keade walked down the hall.
'Hm, it couldn't be Juro. He has a key, plus he's on a date. He wouldn't be home this early.' Keade thought to herself as she reached the door. "How's there?" She called out.
A soft sweet voice called back. "Good evening. My name is Tsukiyomi Fujimata, and I would very much like to speak with InuYasha-kun. Is she available?"
Frowning, Keade opened unlocked the door and opened it. Standing there in the doorway was a beautiful woman with a serene smile. She was dressed in a stunning pink and gray houmongi* with lunar moths along the hems of the sleeve and at the bottom. A light blue obi with the same little lunar moths patterns etched over it. Her long brown hair, as pulled back in an intricate bun, held in place with golden haircombs. In her hands, a red gift box, tied with a golden ribbon. "Yes, my granddaughter is here. Whom may I say is calling?" Asked Keade, just when the woman was about to introduce herself, Inu stepped into the hall.
"Gram, who was at the do-" She froze when she saw Tsukiyomi Fujimata smiling at her. "Fujimata sama! What are you... I mean why are you... I... Please come in!" She said breathlessly as she ushered Sess aunt into the house. "May I introduce you to my grandmother, Keade Fuma. Gram, this is Tsukiyomi Fujimata, she is Sess' aunt. The one I told you about, she's married to Sess' late mother's brother!"
"Oh," Exclaimed Keade, as she bowed to the woman. "It is indeed a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to our home."
Tsukiyomi smiled as she bowed to Keade. "It is an honor to meet you Keade-sama. I'm sorry we did not get a chance to meet at the engagement party. I became quite tired and my husband thought it best we leave. Touga told me where you and your grandmother lived, please forgive my intrusion at this hour, InuYasha kun."
"Not at all. Come and have a seat." Tsuki smiled as she took off her black and pink getas*, to put on the slippers Inu placed before her. Keade lead her into the livingroom, and offered her a seat. Tsuki nodded in thanks and sat down, placing the box in her lap.
"Fujimata sama, could I get you anything?" Asked Yasha, as she helped her Gram into her chair.
"InuYasha dear, I told you to call me Aunt Tsuki. None on this Fujimata business. You are going to be family soon after all. And, I don't go to any trouble on my account."
Yasha smiled, "No trouble at all. Gram and I just finished dinner and was about to have some. I'll be right back!"
When Yasha left, the 2 women sat in content silence. Tsuki looked around the cozy little room and smiled. "You have a charming home Fuma-sama. I can sense a great deal of love and happiness in these walls." Looking over Keade's shoulder, she saw several photos on the wall and on a small desk. Rising she walked over to them. "Is this the rest of your family?"
Keade stood and joined her. Smiling she pointed out the people in the pictures. "Please Fujimata sama, you may call me Keade, or gram. Everyone does. And yes, they are."
"All right Keade sama it is, but only if you'll call me Tsuki."
"Tsuki sama it is!" Keade said, picking up one picture, she pointed out her parents and her brother Hiko and herself. "This was taken in Hokkaido when I was a child. My father and mother took us on vacation to the sea." She pointed to another. "This is my brother Hiko and his family. Did you get a chance to meet Inu's cousins?"
"Yes, I meet this girl and her children briefly." She said pointing to Kagome. "The little boy was very handsome and the girl was simply precious!"
"Yes, Shippo and Kanna, are wonderful kids. But, they are a handful!" The ladies were still laughing when Yasha returned with a tray. On it she brought tea and some snacks.
"Mmmm! Yasha-kun the tea smells wonderful!" Tsukiyomi said as she helped Keade back to her seat. She then tried to help Inu with the tray, but InuYasha stopped her. Telling her to sit down and relax. Handing her a cup of the aromatic brew she placed some shortbread cookies on a small plate, and gave it to Tsuki. Then she served her grandmother. Taking a sip of the tea and a bite of one of the cookies, Tsuki marveled at the taste. "Oh my, Tokio told me that your cooking was something not to be missed, and she was right! And, this tea is simply divine! What brand do you use?"
Keade smiled and shook her head. "We don't use store brands. I have never been able to abide them. No, the leaves are ground fresh from the herbs in our garden!"
"Remarkable! And, did you grind them yourself, Keade sama?"
Shaking her head again. "No, I have a mild case of the rheumatism. InuYasha does the grinding for me." Smiling at her pretty granddaughter. "I don't know how I would have gotten along without her all these years."
Tsuki smiled and nodded. Her eyes once again scanning the photos on the wall. Her eyes lit upon one picture. It was of a gorgeous raven haired woman in a sky blue summer yukata tied with a silver obi. Her long dark hair was pulled back in a bun at the top of her head, and was held by 2 silver haircombs with dogs engraved on them. There was a warm smile on her happy face as she was kneeling next to a small grinning child wearing a bright red yukata, with little white puppies playing and chasing each other. The girl held up a small bowl filled with baby goldfish, tied with strings to carry it. Both woman and child had bright jewel like purple eyes.
Yasha turned in the line of where Tsuki was looking. She smiled as she turned back to her. "That is my mother, Izayoi."
"She's beautiful. And, I take it the child is you, Inu-kun?" Yasha nodded. "She seems to have a kind and loving persona."
"She did. My Izzy was a ray of sunshine, but she could be a hellion when provoked. And, my Yasha takes after her!" Yasha blushed and smiled, as the 2 other ladies laughed. "How old were you here?"
"I had just turned 4 there. We were at the cherry blossom festival, when that picture was taken."
"Yasha, if I may ask, how did she die?"
Keade and Yasha gave her a sad smile. Yasha looked at Tsuki and took a deep breath. "She had a rare blood disorder. Her blood couldn't produce enough white blood cells to bring oxygen to her body. I was 7 years old when she died."
Tsukiyomi gasped and placed her hand over her mouth. Silently she wished she'd minded her own business, the way Hoshi always tells her to. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to pry into painful memories. I just... "
InuYasha put her hand up and stopped her. "It's fine Aunt Tsuki sama, it was a long time ago. I had her for 7 wonderful years, and I won't exchange them for all the time in the world. Having her for only a short time, just makes my memories of her more and more precious! I don't regret a thing."
'Such a brave girl! She is more than worthy of Sessho kun! I only hope HE is worthy of her!' "Ahem. Well, I guess you are wondering why I am here?" She picked up the box she brought with her, and handed it to InuYasha. "This is for you, dear."
"Oh Aunt Tsuki sama, you didn't have to..."
"No, this is something that belongs to you dear. Something to welcome you to our family!" Frowning, Yasha untied the ribbon and carefully unwrapped the box. Inside was the most beauitful Kimono she had ever seen. I was made of the softest spun hand dyed red silk, with hand stitched silver dogs on it. One detail showed a pair of great dogs chasing each other under a full moon. The next showed the same 2 dogs as they sat on a large rock with the moon above them, and a valley below them. Then next, and final was a depiction of the 2 great dogs. Only this time the dogs where joined by 3 smaller dogs. Puppies. One brown, one white, and one black. On the left breast side, was Sess' family crest. A large silver moon with 3 giant swords overlapping each other. InuYasha and Keade were speechless. Never before had they seen anything so beautiful.
"Oh Aunt Tsuki!" She gasped. "I can't possibly take this! It's way to beautiful. It should be for your daughter to wear!"
Tsuki sadly smiled. "I did make it for my daughter to wear. But, unfortunately, I was unable to bare children. I had never been strong, healthwise, and was told that the stress of labor could cause my death." Sighing sadly, "So, Hoshiyomi told me that he would rather be childless, than to live one day without me. So, to deal with the heartache over the years, I made kimonos for the daughter I never got to have. In a lot of ways it soothes me. Even though, Hoshi says I'm a little crazy for doing so." She laughed softly as she thought of her stern, yet kind hearted husband.
"But, this is..."
"This was made to be worn! It was made long ago with you in mind, dear. Even though I had no idea at the time. I had always planed on making kimonos for the woman that Sess chose. As well as their children, and now I'll have the chance! As an elder of the family that welcomes you, it is a gift from your future Uncle and Aunt. Thank you for bringing life and joy back to the house of Takeuchi. Thank you for bringing love back to our little Sessho kun. He has been gone a long time, and we have missed him terribly.
"Now I know who you are!" Keade gasped, as Yasha looked at her in confusion. "I hadn't recognized your name, nor the symbol on your kimono! Fujimata textiles. That is the name of the makers of fine kimonos. Your family have been dressmakers to the rich and famous for over 200 years!"
Inu looked at Tsuki, her eyes widen with shock. "Is that true?"
Tsukiyomi laughed. "I see Sess had forgotten to tell you. In fact, with the exception of you, my husband and I make all the wedding kimonos for all the Takeuchi brides! I made Sango's personally!" She said, holding her head up and smiling with pride. "I would have offered to make yours, but Sessho kun told me that you were to wear your mother's."
"Yes, I have!" InuYasha smiled. Just then Keade's laughter startled them both. The turned inquiring eyes to the eldest woman. "What is so funny, Gram?"
Wiping tears of mirth from her eyes, Keade caught her breath. "Inu is wearing your one of your families kimonos, Tsuki sama!"
"What are you talking about, Gram?" InuYasha said, brows knitted in confusion. While Tsukiyomi raised one fine brow in questioning.
"We did not have much money. So when my daughter and Inu's father got married we had to cut some corners, and do a lot of the preparations ourselves. But, the only thing Izzy wouldn't cut corners on was her wedding kimono. She saved for 2 years to buy it. She was determined to have a Fujimata original on her wedding day! So, Tsuki sama, your family did make Inu kimono, so to speak!" Keade laughed at the looks of shock on the faces of the 2 women. 'Priceless, simply priceless!'
TBC...
For those who are wondering.
A houmongi is a formal kimono given to a woman by her parents after she marries. It is usually worn to attend weddings and tea ceremonies, but I thought it would be all right for Tsukiyomi to wear one of hers for this chapter.
A Geta is a kind of platform shoe or sandal. Some are made of wood. Others could be made from vinyl, and come in a verity of colors.
