Chapter 5
Steven
Inuyasha hadn't seen Kagome so happy in a while. He felt a little jealous. She was so happy that Steven was there, but wasn't happy what-so-ever when Inuyasha came. It was torture seeing Steven get all this affection from Kagome. Inuyasha shook his head and cleared his mind of all his jealous thoughts, for the moment at least. He was sitting on the couch watching the strange picture box (aka the TV) with Souta. A movie was playing on one of the stations, "Pirates of the Caribbean" (I luv that movie!). Inuyasha enjoyed watching the sword fight scenes a little, but in the back of his mind thought about how much stronger his Tetsuaiga was than their wimpy swords.
"I'm gonna go make some popcorn," Souta said getting up from the couch.
Inuyasha was too busy thinking and watching the movie to even bother asking what popcorn was. A minute after Souta left the room, Inuyasha was joined by someone else.
"Oh, Pirates of the Caribbean. I love this movie," Steven said joining Inuyasha on the couch.
Inuyasha looked over at Steven and tried his best to hold back from beating him.
"Have you seen this movie before?" Steven asked Inuyasha, trying to start up a conversation.
"Nope," Inuyasha returned his gaze to the TV screen.
"Oh, well, it's a great movie. I won't ruin the movie for you."
"Gee, thanks," Inuyasha said with no interest in his voice, he was barely paying attention to what Steven was saying.
There was an awkward silence that followed as Steven searched for something else to say to Inuyasha, and Inuyasha just continued to stare at the TV pretending that Steven wasn't there. A couple minutes later, Souta and Kagome walked into the room with a big bowl of popcorn. Souta reclaimed his seat on the couch, and Kagome sat on the floor in front of Steven.
Inuyasha looked over at Kagome only to see her holding hands with Steven. He started to grind his teeth, but stopped when Souta offered some popcorn to him. He stared questionably at the bowl, but eventually picked up a piece and popped it into his mouth.
"That's pretty good," Inuyasha said grabbing a handful and stuffing it in his mouth.
The four of them were soon joined by Kagome's mom, who grabbed some popcorn from Souta before finding herself a seat in a nearby chair. They all watched the movie in silence, with the exception of Kagome's mom who randomly made comments about the movie. After the movie finished, Kagome's mom walked over to the fridge and looked for something to make dinner with. Finding nothing, she closed the door and walked back into the TV room. "Kagome, there's nothing for dinner tonight, could you come shopping with me?"
Kagome hesitantly said yes. She was a little worried about leaving Steven with Inuyasha, but Souta would be there too, so there probably wouldn't be a huge problem. Kagome grabbed Inuyasha by the arm and dragged him into the kitchen so she could talk to him.
"Inuyasha, I don't want you to do anything or say anything bad to Steven while I'm gone," Kagome said.
"Don't talk to me like I'm a little kid! I'm not gonna do anything," Inuyasha snapped back.
"Well, I never know with you. I just don't want you to hurt Steven."
"Oh no, don't worry. I would never think of hurting your lover boy," Inuyasha said sarcastically.
Kagome sighed as she grabbed her purse and then walked over to Steven and gave him a little hug before leaving with her Mom.
Inuyasha walked out of the kitchen and started to head to his room.
"Hey, where ya going?" Souta asked Inuyasha.
"I'm going to my room," Inuyasha said stopping.
"Oh come on, I was about to bring out the Uno deck!" Souta said.
"The what?"
"It's a really fun card game! I thought it would be good to have us all play a game and get to know each other!" Souta said.
"Us, as in you, me, and Steven?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yeah!"
"Nope! I'm going!" Inuyasha turned away and continued walking to his room.
"Inuyasha! Ok, if you win a game I'll make ramen just for you, any flavor you want!"
Inuyasha stopped and turned to face Souta. He thought for a second and then replied, "Any flavor I want?"
"Yep."
"…Ok! But I have no idea how to play this game."
"Oh, I'll teach ya, it's a pretty simple game."
Souta got Steven, and then taught Inuyasha the basics of the game. After Inuyasha got the hang of the game, they all played for real. Souta tried to make conversation between the three of them, but Inuyasha had no intentions of conversing with Steven. Inuyasha lost the first game, so they played again, and again, and again until Inuyasha finally won and claimed his ramen prize.
Souta cleaned up the game and set to cooking some ramen, leaving Inuyasha and Steven alone. Once again Steven tried to make some conversation with Inuyasha.
"So, you and Kagome are cousins? You two don't look alike at all," Steven said.
"Yeah, we're distant cousins, very distant."
"Oh." Steven searched his brain for something else to say. "Seen any good games? Or, do you watch sports?"
"Nope, don't watch em," Inuyasha was getting annoyed fast talking to Steven. He just didn't like talking to him at all, or even being anywhere near him.
"Seen any good movies?" Steven asked still trying to make conversation.
Inuyasha was getting really annoyed at Steven's attempts to talk to him. "Just stop talking," Inuyasha said walking away from Steven.
"Huh?" Steven was confused by Inuyasha's reaction. 'I get the feeling this guy doesn't like me very much' Steven thought to himself.
Inuyasha walked by the kitchen (he has to go by it to get to his room) and was greeted by Souta. "Ramen's done!" Souta yelled.
Inuyasha suddenly felt a little less annoyed at the thought of ramen. He walked into the kitchen where his victory prize sat in a bowl. He grabbed the bowl, and quickly gulped it all down slurping up the remainder of his noodles.
"Wow, that was fast," Souta said, "I think it's a new record!"
Inuyasha put the bowl back down on the counter just as Kagome and her mom came walking in, arms full of grocery bags. Steven walked into the kitchen and walked over to Kagome and her mom.
"Need help with your bags?" Steven asked.
"Well, could you take this one?" Kagome asked nodding her head at the bag.
Steven grabbed the bag from her and carried it over to the counter.
"Feh, suck up," Inuyasha said under his breathe.
"Ok, I'll start dinner, you kids just go do whatever you want," Kagome's mom said after all the grocery bags were set down.
Steven and Souta headed for the TV room again, and Inuyasha headed for his room, but was stopped by Kagome.
"What?" Inuyasha asked.
"Did you behave?" Kagome asked.
"You're talking to me like I'm a little kid again."
"Well, you do act like a little kid, so-"
"Ah, shut up! I'm going to my room."
"So, you didn't do anything to Steven?" Kagome asked.
"No, I didn't do anything to your precious lover!" Inuyasha said more annoyed.
"Good. I'm glad you and Steven are getting along."
"Yeah, yeah."
Kagome walked off to where Steven and Souta were, and Inuyasha finally made it to his room and fell asleep on his bed.
A/N: Ok, I'm ending it here. I can't think of anything else to put. Hope the chapter wasn't too sucky. I tried my hardest. I'm really tired, it's like 10:30pm right now. I'm going to sleep after this.
DRAKE220: Thanks, I'm glad that my characters got some more personality. I'm kind of out of it a little right now, so I'm hoping that the character's personality didn't fall too much because of it. Ooo, sorry that you had to sit and listen to that couple fighting. That must have been fun. Thanks for the long review!
