Author’s Notes: Well,
poor Kagome, I decided it was her turn to get tormented a bit. InuYasha’s been
getting the brunt of it lately. It’s also a bit of an outlet for my exhaustion
lately, though I don’t have two midgets running around causing my work-related
headaches to get worse. I used some examples of kids I’ve seen in the store
instead. XD
“MAMA!!” Izayoi screeched.
Kagome sighed for what felt like
the thousandth time that day, and heaved her son up, away from doing one of his
favorite activities: yanking on his sister’s ponytails. Sachi screeched his own
unhappiness, trying to wiggle his way back to the floor, grabbing at the air.
“ANEKI!!!”
She deposited Sachi into his
playpen, which would hold him for all of about fifteen minutes, (at nine
months, he was as mobile as his sister, and just as clever at getting where he
wanted to be), and turned her attention back to the papers strewn about on the
table. Even with the two classes a week at the university, she still felt as
overwhelmed as if she were still balancing full classes and shard hunting. Only
now, it was motherhood to two appallingly lively children and the minimum
amount of classes a week. She was just wrestling with a new statistics problem
when she heard the newest dilemma of the afternoon: the cat loudly protesting
the pulling of his tail. “Sachi!” Kagome raised her voice sharply, her patience
wearing thin.
Her son pouted back at her, sitting
outside of his pen like she’d expected, and let go of Inago’s tail. She
mentally cursed both her husband and her daughter for their double-teaming her
with Puppy Eyes. They’d found the Egyptian Mau shortly after Sachi was born,
starving and barely out of kittenhood, on a walk in their forest. He’d been
filthy and bony, but after Kagome’s initial apprehension had faded, she’d
submitted to their begging, and taken the poor thing in. It turned out that
InuYasha had a thing for cats; she should have guessed it from the way he’d
always pestered Buyo, and how he’d been just as upset as she when her old pet
had died when Izayoi was barely a year old. Izayoi insisted they name the cat
Inago, for reasons known only to her, but she and her husband speculated it had
something to do with the cat’s love of pouncing on everything, leaving silvery
cat hair all over everything and increasing the amount of cleaning to be done.
With that solved, Kagome set her
pencil against the sheet of paper, just as the bickering between her heathens
started up again. She decided to ignore it, letting them get it out of their
system, when the crying started. “NO, THEY’RE MINE! YOU’LL BREAK THEM!” Izayoi
shrieked, yanking her dolls our of his reach as Sachi began to bawl out of
frustration.
“WANT TO PLAY WIF ANEKI!”
“NO!”
Kagome’s fingers were laced in her
hair as she took several deep breaths to calm herself. “OKAA!” Her son cried, falling on the floor and beating it with
his fists.
It was a full-blown temper tantrum
now, one that his sister couldn’t resist inflaming even more by taunting,
“You’re such a baby, you don’t get your way and you have to go and cry about
it!”
Their mother turned just in time to
watch Sachi, still red-faced and screaming, get up and launch himself at
Izayoi. They were decently matched, neither particularly stronger than the
other, and where Izayoi lacked her brother’s fangs, he didn’t have her claws.
Feral yowls and shrieks filled the living room; Kagome had had enough,
particularly when Sachi left a particularly nasty-looking bite on Izayoi’s
shoulder, and she retaliated with a swipe down his leg. “That’s enough!” Kagome
hollered, stepping in the midst of the foray, and heaving one child over her
shoulder, and the other one on her hip.
They spat childish curses at each
other, and Kagome winced once or twice as she felt Izayoi’s claws scrape on her
back as she attempted to pull her brother’s ears, and Sachi’s wailing made all
of their ears ache; his flying fists were going to leave bruises on his
mother’s hip and back, but it would be worth it once she dumped the little
Neanderthals out into the chilly March afternoon. It was her good luck though,
that just as she got to the back door, her husband stepped inside, shedding his
coat as he did. “Hey, koi, what—”
Kagome thrust one squalling child
at him, and then the other. “Outside. Now. Exhaust them.”
She shoved the protesting, confused
InuYasha out the door, and closed it. Sighing with relief at the quiet that
settled in her house, she sat down and proceeded to finish her stats homework.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Izayoi’s nose was threatening to
dip into her bowl of Ramen. Her violet eyes gazed blearily at her mother,
watching in a daze as she coaxed the irritably exhausted Sachi into taking
another bite of noodles. InuYasha was on his fourth bowl, a fifth cooling in
the wings, and Kagome had barely touched her cup of the stuff, trying to get
their youngest to eat.
The children’s father had succeeded
in wearing them out, so much in fact that Kagome wasn’t sure if they should
bother with baths at all that night, for fear that they might fall asleep in
the tub and drown. She wasn’t sure exactly how her husband had done it, but she
had a feeling that the older hanyou’s stamina and the children’s love of
‘Tag/Shove/Punch/Smack/Hit-You’re-It’ (the ferocity depending on who they were
playing with, and if the last person It had particularly annoyed them) had
something to do with it. “Iza, finish your Ramen, and you can go upstairs.” Kagome
chided gently.
“Ok, Mama…” She yawned, and
clumsily brought her chopsticks up to her mouth.
Twenty minutes and two
partially-empty containers later, both children were in their PJs and fast
asleep in their beds. Kagome sighed and rolled her head to get the kinks out of
her neck, pouring the remaining broth down the drain and tossing the noodles
into their kitchen compost container. InuYasha’s arms slid around her waist
gently, holding her snug against him. “I could have eaten that, you know.” He
complained.
“Yes, but I don’t want to
experiment on how many bowls of Ramen it takes for your blood pressure to
skyrocket, if it’s all the same to you.” Kagome remarked with a hint of her
already-simmering temper.
“My blood pressure doesn’t
skyrocket.” He retorted, enjoying the fact that he was getting her riled up;
nothing was more beautiful than his wife’s face alight with her infamous
temper.
“You know what I mean. And I know
what you’re trying to do, so stop it.”
“Stop what?” He asked innocently.
“You’re insufferable, you know that
right?”
“And you love me for it, bitch.”
Kagome fumed, her patience thin
from the children’s constant bickering all day, and shoved herself away from
him, violently throwing the empty containers in the trash, and stomping off. He
was there to intercept her, planting a kiss on her lips. She jerked away,
glaring at him. She recognized that twinkle in his eye: he was a man who was
aroused by what he saw. She was in no mood for him and his antics at the
moment, but her hanyou was apparently going to ignore all of the ‘you really
don’t want to be doing this right now’ vibes, and have his way with her.
And with that thought, a bit of her
resolve broke.
He sensed it as she stalked away
from him. Ignoring the cat, who was watching them with curious, bored green
eyes from his position on the back of the chair, he silently followed her,
standing behind the couch as she sat down with a sigh. His hands found the curves of her neck, where
they met her shoulders, and gently kneaded the tense muscles underneath. A moan escaped her before she could catch
herself, her head lolling back with the relief accompanying the massage. She
felt him shift, and gasped when his tongue traced the shell of her ear. He
chuckled, the warm puffs of air against her skin sending goosebumps racing up
her arms. “Not so loud, my dear one… we wouldn’t want the children waking up…”
“If those little heathens wake up,
you’ll take care of it for making me-ah!” She hissed with pleasure as one of
his hands slipped down her shirt and teased a nipple.
“You’ll do what?” He murmured
seductively, lapping against the pulse pounding in her neck.
Kagome mumbled something
incoherent. He grinned, flashing a fang, and lightly nibbled the sensitive skin
on her shoulders. He had her sighing and squirming on the couch underneath him
in a matter of minutes. She giggled as his claws danced at her sides. “Inu-ah! Stop, please!” She laughed as the tickling grew
more intense.
Hot air puffed against her chest,
her shirt unbuttoned and her bra shoved up to reveal her voluptuous breasts.
The look in his eye was positively feral as he captured a nipple, her laughter
dissolving into gasps and moans of pleasure, it’s twin
becoming occupied by his hand. The other slowly crept towards the waistband of
her jeans, and her breath hitched in anticipation. He was just getting to the
good parts when…
“BUGGY!”
Sachi’s excited, sleepy squeal reverberated
through the house from upstairs. Kagome sighed in frustration as her mate
muttered a few choice words about kids and their excellent timing. “Mama, buggy!” Sachi called, toddling to the banister.
“What buggy?” Kagome asked, more confused as the shroud of passion started clearing
from her mind.
Izayoi grumbled, poking her head
around the corner of the upstairs. “Mama, make him go back to bed.” She whined.
“Buggy in the bafroom!” Sachi explained in a condescending tone.
Kagome squirmed. “A
bug in the bathroom? Eeew, InuYasha…”
“What, I didn’t do anything!” He
snapped.
“No, I mean, go kill it or
something.”
Izayoi had stomped into the
bathroom to investigate herself. “There’s a cricket in the bathroom!” She
called. “Can I kill it, Papa, please?”
“Go ahead, pup, saves me the trip…”
There was a moment of silence, as
Kagome made her way up the stairs to put Sachi back to bed, when the small girl
shrieked. InuYasha was up the stairs in a flash. “What happened?”
“It JUMPED on me!” Izayoi cried,
more surprised than anything, the cricket seemingly quite at home on top of one
of her ears. She flicked it, and the cricket bounced onto the rim of the
bathroom.
Fifteen minutes of chasing the
miniscule insect around the bathroom later, InuYasha slammed the window shut, having just released the thing back into the wild; he
and Izayoi had agreed that anything that small that put up such a fight to live
should get their wish. He was just putting his little girl down to bed when
Sachi barreled into the room and latched onto his leg. “NO! NO BED!”
And
now the fun begins…, he thought, mentally rolling his eyes. “Sachi, I
thought you were tired.”
“NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO!”
Izayoi was grabbing her favorite
nighttime accessory: a pair of soundproof earmuffs, straight from the airport
runways. Even with her concealment bracelet on, her hearing was
well above-average, and her brother’s nightly bedtime tantrums kept her awake. InuYasha
tried again. “You know you’ll just make yourself more tired, and then you won’t
be able to go to the park with Obaa-san in the morning.”
Sachi’s face was red from
screaming. InuYasha’s head was starting to hurt, and his ears were definitely
going to be ringing for the next few hours. He heaved the squalling child over
his shoulder, ears pinned back as far as they would
go, and glared at his mate. “Make him stop.” He told her, handing him over.
“Oh, like I’m the only one able to?”
She snapped, her patience gone with the announcement of their insect guest and
her son’s fit.
He followed, feeling slightly
guilty about picking an argument, and watched her put the boy into his bed. “Sachi,
stay in bed, or Okaa will be very upset with you.” She told him over his
squalling.
She closed the door behind her, and
drew a sign over the door. It glowed pink for a minute, then faded. It was a
basic sealing spell, one she’d learned to do without sutra, and it would only
sting a little if Sachi tried to open the door and cause more of a fuss.
Without a word, she stormed into their bedroom. InuYasha knew his chances of
rekindling what they’d started earlier were slim, not that he was in any real
mood to be soft and romantic either, and went downstairs to shut off all of the
lights.
She was still fuming under the
covers when he came back upstairs, and when he finished his nightly routine in
the bathroom. She tensed slightly when he slipped an arm around her waist. “Koi,
it’s alright…” He told her.
“It’s not! All I want is some peace
and quiet to get some studying done, but no! My children have to behave like
little demons all day!” She exclaimed.
“Well, they are part-demon…” He muttered, but she ignored him like he knew she
would.
“Then the one time I start to relax and enjoy myself all day, yet another
crisis starts up, and it ends up with me looking like the bad guy because I
have to seal Sachi into his room, and he’ll cry for another hour, and I know I
can’t go in there or else he’ll know he’s won, and he needs some discipline! I
don’t know what I’m doing wrong!” She wailed, starting to cry herself.
InuYasha’s own nerves were shot by
this point, but he held her as she cried into his chest. “You aren’t doing
anything wrong.” He told her after a few minutes. “Pups are different, each
one. Izayoi was the good one, and it looks like Sachi’s going to be the
trouble-maker. It happens. Every one of Miroku and Sango’s pups were different
in their own way, and don’t even get me started on Shippou and Itazura’s clan.
You’re a good mother, Kagome. Today was just a bad day.”
She nodded. “I know… I’m just so
frustrated with everything… And I don’t want to ask Mama to take them more than
she already does, and Souta doesn’t have the time to babysit often. And I’m frustrated
that we were interrupted…”
“Like that hasn’t happened before?” InuYasha asked sarcastically.
“You know what I mean… I needed
that, and now I’m just not in the mood…”
He pouted. “You
sure?”
“Well…”
He dropped a bit of bait. “I’ll let
you be in control.”
She laughed, and he felt better for
hearing it. “You’ll let me, will you?”
“For the time
being, yes.”
Kagome smirked, shifting so that
she was straddling his waist. She reached over and opened the drawer to the
nightstand, and pulled out a pair of handcuffs. Holding them daintily in two
fingers, she asked, “For the time being? I think not.”
As he was being chained to the
headboard, a slight wave of panic washed over him. What have I gotten myself into?
It was the last coherent thought he
had before his mate ravished him into Nirvana.
((No lemons. =( Sorry, I can’t quite get one out this time, too much
going on and not enough time to try and get things steamy enough. I apologize
for how long this took getting out, the last few months have been… hectic. Hopefully
I can get more out when I go back to school in a few weeks, but I’ve loaded my
schedule. We’ll see what I can pound out on weekends, eh? Thanks for reading,
and remember to please leave a review!!))
