Disclaimer: Question: why would I be on if I owned Inuyasha? Wouldn't I be better spending my time drawing the actual manga instead of ENDING it? I'm on the second last chapter of it and plenty peeved.

Note: I just had to write this fanfiction. This idea has been stuck in my head since forever!

Bundle of Joy

Tsubasa Himura watched her nephew Inuyasha caressing her newest niece little Sora and it melted her heart. He looked so gentle and kind…just like her father and just like her sister's husband when she had held him. Just then she got an idea… a devious idea…

-A few months later-

Inuyasha sat flipping through the channels. Nothing was on, it was times like this he wished he didn't live alone. Just then the doorbell rang.

"If this is Eriko, I'm not answering the door," despite him saying that, he knew it wasn't any of his friends, they all had work today. Inuyasha sighed and swung open the door, hoping it wasn't Mrs. Higurashi asking him to babysit Souta.

"Hey-lo nephew!" his Aunt Tsubasa smiled. She had long ebony locks that were pulled into a ponytail with a few loose strands. She was one of the few relative who did not turn away from him in disgust.

Even still, that didn't mean he was all rainbows around her. "Whaddya want?"

"Nothing," she smiled, "Could you hold this for a sec?" She placed a something in his arms. "I need to get something from the car." Then she drove away.

"What the hell just happened?" Inuyasha blinked in confusion.

"Wah ya," a soft, tiny voice responded from in his arms.

Inuyasha looked down to find two cobalt blue eyes looking up at him sparkling with wonder. He also noticed a small envelope in her tiny hands.

He walked back to the couch, put the baby girl on the couch and took the letter away from her.

Dear Inuyasha,

I guess you've noticed little Mizuko by now. Guess what? She's your responsibilty! I noticed how well you handled little Sora so now you've got a baby of your own to deal with. She should be talking in a few days…maybe weeks and will walk soon as well. Hope you have fun being a dad, I know the baby will love you!

Vivaciously,

Aunt Tsubasa

Inuyasha frowned, "What the hell? Did she just dump a baby on me? And who the hell ends letters with 'vivaciously'?" He growled, this was just like his aunt actually. Her personality was so similar to Eriko's he hardly believe that Sakura Tenji was Eriko's real mom, sometimes.

"So…you're name is Mizuko, huh?" he might as well get used to it because his aunt would never take her back. She was probably one of the kids at his aunt's orphanage meaning he could never send her back anyways.

His aunt hads an orphanage for the desperately unfortunate. All the orphans there are subject to unjust hate or have suffered deeply in some way or form. That doesn't mean she won't take 'normal' orphans, she just picks the depressing ones over them. Because the 'normals' could get adopted any day when the 'unfortunates' may never leave the orphanage.

Inuyasha gave Mizuko a second glance and realized she was half demon. She had big blue eyes, short black hair and two little dog ears. She was adorable but…he was fifteen years old. A little young to be a father. But then again, his aunt didn't really care, she felt he needed Mizuko and whether she was right or not, he was stuck with her.

Inuyasha felt his stomach growl. He headed towards the kitchen but then heard wailing. When he turned and headed back towards Mizuko, the crying stopped. He sighed, "This wasn't going to be easy. I guess I can't leave you alone for one second." She looked back at him with sparkling, little eyes. And he felt his heart warming and his paternal instincts kick in. "Maybe this won't be so bad after all."

Inuyasha awoke the next morning after just having fallen asleep. Mizuko had cried all night. He had been fortunate enough to have his old crib still in the house on some accounts…she was right in his room and there was no way for him to drown out her loud wails. And thanks to his paternal instincts he had gotten up to comfort her everytime. He was getting a feeling that only his heartbeat would put her to sleep. As cute as that sounds, it was no fun for him.

He had to leave for school as she was sleeping. He had hired some Mexican babysitter with some of the money her inherits from the Taisho half of his family. She was weird and didn't talk much but she gave him this disgusted glare all the time despite him paying her like 100 per hour. He gave up on convincing her that Mizuko wasn't really his kid after five minutes of that glare.

He had to go to school afterall and before Mizuko woke up…or else he'll mever be able to leave. But as he walked to school he realized in his exhausted, tired state maybe school wasn't such a good idea.

"Inuyasha, are you okay?" Eriko walked with him everyday, she lived right across the street so why not. Luckily for him, he met her at her house.

Kagome replied in a scolding voice, "You really shouldn't spend all night playing video games or watching pornos." He walked with her because they lived next door and her mother loved him as her own.

Kikyo glared at Kagome, "You shouldn't spend all night drooling over his picture." He walked with Kikyo, whilst they were dating which was on and off, she lived on the other side of the house and rushed to his defense.

Inuyasha groaned, "I wasn't playing video games and I don't even know what a porno looks like, dumbass."

"Then what were you doing?" Eriko was curious now.

Inuyasha first looked at her like, 'did you really think I was doing that?' then he answered, "I was…doing my homework, okay?"

"You had a day off from work and you didn't do your homework until the last minute?" Kagome was disappointed, "And you're supposededly this school's best student?"

"Does doing your homework earlier make you more intelligent? Are you telling me that if a dumbass does their homework as soon as they get home and genius does it at night, the dumbass will do better?" Inuyasha replied.

"Oh no, don't you two start fighting again," Eriko moaned.

"No, but-" Kagome replied.

"But nothing," Inuyasha cut in.

Kagome scowled, "Why do you act just like a mom?"

"Why do you?" Inuyasha remarked.

"Maybe because you need one," Kagome replied and instantly regretted it.

Inuyasha went quiet. He walked ahead but didn't say a word.

"Inuyasha," Kagome begged, "Don't be mad, that came out wrong."

"No, that's fine, if you feel that way, it's okay, maybe I do," Inuyasha's voice cracked, "but she's dead and you can't bring her back by acting like her."

"Inuyasha…I didn't mean it that way," Kagome pleaded.

Kikyo snapped, "Nice going dumbass, now he's depressed."

"Well, he's your boyfriend, why don't you go cheer him up?" Kagome argued.

Kikyo's eyes narrowed, "What on earth do you mean by that?"

"Not you two, now!" Eriko hated to hear people argue, it was annoying.

"I didn't mean that cheer up!" Kagome wailed, everything was coming out so wrong.

Up ahead, Inuyasha smirked. He was tired but at least he got a laugh today. Hadn't they realized that he was numb to little comments like that. Did they really think 'Because you need one' was going to bring him down. That was fact and Inuyasha could face realities like that. Beside, he needed to get those two arguing so Eriko wouldn't realize that he had finished all his homework at her house so he could goof off all day. Sometimes he can be dense but he can be devious too.

Hope you like the story idea…
