A Christmas Family Vacation
by Nikkie23534
Marshall cabin...
InuYasha was just placing lunch on the table, when... "Arrhhooo"! Smiling as his ears swiveled around atop his head. He was trying to judge just how far his family was when a second howl sounded. "Arrrrrhhhoooooo"! That howl made him stop all together. It was a howl of distress. Something has gone wrong, something has happened!
He rushing to the front porch, he throwing his head back and let out an answering howl. Not a moment later, his sons burst through the line of trees. Dragging behind them, the carcases of three dead deer. Drooping the deer at the bottom of the steps, they ran straight up to their To San.
"To San!" They both yelled in unison!
"Whoa, whoa," he said holding his hands up. "Calm down, what the hell happened? Where's your Sire and your omouto?"
Chihoshi emerged from the house watching the happenings with interest. As Shoji tried to catch his breath, Shoichi began talking to fill their dad in on why they were in a panic.
"To San, To San! You would not believe it! Chichi- ue showed us how to track and kill our own deer! He killed that huge 10 pointer there, and then he let both Sho- Kun and I get those other two! Of course I, caught mine with relative ease, but Shoji almost let his get away!"
Shoji, who by now had gotten a hold of himself, pushed his brother out of the way. "Shut up, Ichi! That deer was super tough! Even Chichi- ue said HE would have had a problem when he was our age!"
"Hn, he said that to keep you from feeling any less of a failure", Shoichi replied with his nose high in the air. "Anyway, while he was showing us the proper way to dress them so we could begin them home. Sumi- nee- Chan was chasing this little brown rabbit by a river in the wood not far from us, when..."
"To- San, there was this huge freakin' brown bear..." Shoji exclaimed, pushing his aniki aside because he was taking to long. “The biggest I've ever seen! It was enormous!”
"A bear?!" InuYasha yelled, frantic now staring between the boys and the woods. “What the hell do you mean a bear?”
At that moment Sesshomaru appeared from behind a large thicket of trees, stalking quickly towards the cabin. InuYasha noticed his disheveled state from the porch. His mate's once neat ponytail, hung loose and out of place. His slacks and sweater where torn, and he was completely drenched!
Bundled up tight in his arms, wrapped in his coat was little Masumi! The child was shivering and also soaked to the bone. "Watashi no akachan!*" InuYasha practically flew off the porch, and raced up to them. "What in all the seven levels of hell happened?" InuYasha yelled, taking the girl from her Sire and rushing her inside. Sesshomaru, Chihoshi, and the twins hot on his heels.
InuYasha ran into the master bath. He told Sesshomaru to fill their tub with hot warm water, as InuYasha stripped her down.
"I'm sorry, my mate. I was careless." Sessho started to explain, as InuYasha gently placed their youngest child into the water. He stopped when his mate leveled him with a cold glare. Silencing him immediately.
Glancing over towards the door, InuYasha saw a very concerned Chihoshi standing just inside. "Okaa- San, could you please go and grab a pair of her warmest pajamas for me? You'll find them in the top drawer, closest to the window." She nodded, quickly going to fetch them.
"Sho", he called to his youngest. "Go to the kitchen, and boil some water for hot cocoa." He turned to Shoichi. "Ichi, light the fire in the bedroom. Be careful!" He called out to them as they ran to do what he asked. "And, both of ya, take those damn deer and hang them in the garage!"
"Hai, To San!" They yelled in unison.
Grabbing a washcloth, he began gently running the warm water over her chilled torso. Smiling as her teeth slowly stopped chattering. "My goodness, Musume*, what on Earth where you doing? Why didn't you stay close to your To- Sama?"
Her large golden looked at him, and smiled. "I...I wanted t... to br... bring it ba... back to sh... show you. I...I al...alm- most go- got the bu- bu- bunny, T- to- ch- Chan!"
"Well, I'm sure you'll get it next time, my sweet," he said, pulling her out of the tub. He wrapped her in the thick towel Sesshomaru handed him. Leaving his mate in the bath to clean himself up, InuYasha picked up their pup, carrying her into their bedroom.
He sat Indian style on the floor with Sumi in his lap, he started drying her off in front of the blazing fire. His ears swiveled towards the door, looking up he saw his mother in law had come back. A pair of pale yellow flannel pjs draped over her arm, and a pair of thick socks in hand. Smiling a thank you, he took them and dressed his daughter. A few minutes later, Ichi appeared carrying a steaming cup of hot cocoa. Followed by his younger brother.
tucked her into their warm bed, propping them both up on several pillows. Ichi handed him her mug. InuYasha held it while she took a drink. The boys sat down on the other side of the bed, huddling close to their omouto while their Obaa- Sama took a seat before the fire. All waiting for Sesshomaru to join them.
Sesshomaru walked out of the bathroom. Showered and dry, he went to the wardrobe he began changing his clothes. Redressed in a pair of dark blue jeans and a black V- neck sweater, came and sat down on the bed facing his mate and pup. Somewhat calmed now, InuYasha sighed, "Now, will someone please tell me what happened out there?"
Sesshomaru sighed heavily, raising his eyes to meet his mate's. He was about to explain, but was cut off by their sons.
"To- San, you should have been there to see it!" An excited Sho interjected. "Chichi- ue was awesome! Stupid bear tried to get Sumi, and she fell into the river. Chichi jumped into the air and came down in his Inu form! BAM!!!" He yelled, slapping his hand together hard.
"Yes, To- San, Chichi- ue was extreme! One swipe from his mighty paw sent that detestable bear through at least 4 trees! I'm sure every bone in it's body had been pulverized! It was, as Sho stated, very awesome indeed!"
Seeing his little girl's eyes drooped a little, InuYasha decided it was time for everyone to go. "Alright, we've all had enough excitement for today." Getting up, he eased the sleepy pup down deeper under the covers. "Everyone downstairs."
The boys looked at their omouto, then up at their To- San. "Um, To- San. If it's agreeable with you and Chichi- ue, we would like to stay with Sumi for a little while longer." Ichi asked.
"Yeah, To- San. We just... Well... Um..." Sho tried. Looking down at his hands. Both boys had been so worried. They were elated by seeing their father in action, but seeing that bear trying to attack their omouto. They never felt so helpless, or scared in their lives.
Standing, Sesshomaru nodded in approval. Understanding their need to be by the young girl, "I see nothing wrong with it." He turned to usher both his mate and mother out of the room. He was stopped by the sweet voice of his youngest pup.
"To- San?"
Sesshomaru turned back to the sleepy smiling girl. Laying snuggly between her older brothers. "Hai, my hime?"
"Can we still go out and search for our Chwistmas twee togat- dor la- ter?" She yawned.
"Yes, dear one. Later when you've rested a little, we will go." He assured her.
She smiled, closing her eyes for a nap. "Watashi wa papa ga daisuki"*
"Watashi mo anata o aishi, watashi no musume"* He said before leaving the room, closing the door behind him. Walking downstairs, he saw his mother seated before the fire in the great room. "Sesshomaru, dear", she called out to him, gesturing to the chair next to her. Gliding into the room, he sat down and waited. "Masumi is alright now?"
Sesshomaru's head lowered, nodded. "Hai, Haha- ue. Masumi is fine... Now. But..."
Sesshomaru flinched when he felt a gentle hand caress his face. Cupping his chin, she raised his gaze to meet her's. "You listen to me, Maru- kun. You did not fail, Musuko!" Then she stood. Leaning down she pressed their crescent moons together, before kissing it. "Your Chichi- ue would have been proud of you." She left him alone.
Sesshomaru sat there for a long time. Resting his elbows on his knees, he cradled his forehead in the palms of his hands. Berating himself silently for his carelessness. After a while, he smelled the soothing scent of his mate filled his nose. As he waited for the cursing and ranting to begin, he was surprised when cup of hot coffee was thrust under his nose. Looking up, he saw his mate's concerned face. Taking the cup from him, he sat it down on the floor pulling InuYasha into his lap. Clutching him tightly to him, he closed his eyes and buried his nose in his neck. Breathing in InuYasha warm heady scent.
InuYasha stoked his Aniki's silver hair, kissing the top of his mate's head. "Sessho", he whispered.
"I was showing the pups how to properly dress one of the deers. When I saw she was no longer standing with us, I turned to see where she'd gone. I spotted her, chasing after this rabbit. I told her to stay close, and not to go past the river." Reaching out he caressed her chubby cheek. Smiling as she leaned into his hand, clutching it with both hers. "I was careless. I didn't realize we were upwind. That bear came out of nowhere. I heard Masumi scream!" Squeezing his eyes shut tighter, he tightened his grip on InuYasha. "Inu, I...I should have been quicker!"
"Shush, Saiai*. She's alright. You have never failed them...never."
InuYasha could smelled the salt and felt the wetness against his neck. Tears. Tears of regret he'd thought were put away centuries ago. "But, I did fail, Otouto. Once. I failed and badly. I left her unprotected. I left them..." He stopped, with a heartbreaking sob.
'Them? Who?' InuYasha frowned, not understanding what his mate was talking about. Then it dawned on him, 'Oh no! No, Sessho, no!' Placing both hands on his mate's face, InuYasha gently forced Sesshomaru's face to meet his. Slowly licking way the tears, he pressed kisses over his mate eyes, cheeks, and nose before sealing their lips. Breaking the kiss, InuYasha smiled at his mate. "Sesshomaru. It wasn't your fault. It was a war. Rin was a grown woman, she choose her path. She choose to stay, and help that village with Kohaku. They wanted to lead their own lives. There was nothing you could do!"
InuYasha pulled his mate into his embrace, holding him against his heart. They stayed that way for a long time, before Sesshomaru finally pulled back. Sitting back in the chair, with his mate snug against him. They watched the flames in the fireplace dance. InuYasha looked up, admiring the way the gold of eyes reflected with the flames. "Sesshomaru?"
"Hn?"
InuYasha hesitated a bit, twirling strains from Sesshomaru's long hair around his finger, "Is that why you wanted us to wait so long to have pups? Was it the memory of losing Rin, what held you back?"
Sesshomaru's eyes widen in shock, as he looked down into his mate's eyes. His mouth moved, only to close again. Turning his head back to stare into the flames. Sighing deeply, he closed to hide the pain of truth from his mate. InuYasha nodded, understanding for the first time. He'd wondered often if Rin's demise had been the underlining cause as to why Sesshomaru denied him every breeding season. During their first 100 years together, they'd agreed to wait. Giving them time to secure their relationship and their wealth. Then as the years went on, it became less and less important. That was until Chihoshi demanded they get in gear and give her grandpups. She even kidnapped InuYasha, holding him within her cloud fortress. Threatening to have her way with him! If Sesshomaru didn't pup his mate soon! A year later the Shoichi and Shoji were born. InuYasha had never seen such joy in his mate, as he had when he'd met his son's for the first time. That joy was doubled when they'd brought Masumi into the world. It was the one of the few times Sesshomaru allow tears to fall unashamed from his eyes.
Licking his chin, InuYasha pressed his lips to his husband's. "Other than those moments when your all 'This Sesshomaru this' and 'This Sesshomaru that' 'My word is law' shit! I have no complaints. You've always been an excellent ruler, provider, father, and mate."
Sesshomaru looked deeply into his lover's eyes. Seeing the warmth and deep love shining within them, he smiled. "However did you put up with me all these centuries, InuYasha?"
"Easy", he smiled mischievously. "After all these years the sex is still crazy!" Holding each other, laughing as they stared cozily in the chair. Unaware of the 4 sets of eye watching from the stairs.
"Their at it again, Ichi." Sho leaned over whispering into his aniki's ear. Completely grossed out by their parent's shameful display.
"I agree completely, otouto," Ichi nodded curling his upper lip in slight disgust. "Honestly, they should take that into their room!"
"Hush children. You will understand when your older." Their Obaa- Sama whispered carefully, making sure they weren't heard.
From her seat on her grandmother's lap, Masumi looked up gently tugging on her Obaa- Chan's sleeve. Chihoshi looked down at the curious child. "Hai, sweetling?" She whispered.
"Do you think I will be an Aneki soon, Obaa- Chan?"
"Maybe, my dear. Maybe", she whispered back. Then quietly began ushering the children into the kitchen, which is were they were heading in the first place. "Now, come along. Obaa will reheat that wonderful lunch your To San made."
"Should we go to make sure she doesn't burn down the kitchen... Again." InuYasha asked snuggling deeper into his mate's embrace.
"No, I think Shoichi and Shoji will be able to prevent any disasters Haha- ue will cause." A mischievous smirk then graced Sesshomaru's lips. An primitive gleam in his eyes as he looked at his beloved mate. "Besides, food is the furthest thing from my mind!"
Smiling, InuYasha pushed his mate back jumping up from his lap. Rushing up the stairs, with his mate hot on his heals!
