I wanted to do something for Halloween this year since it's my favorite (un)official holiday, so I'll be writing a Halloween inspired drabble(ish, you all know my drabbles oftentimes turn into oneshots lol) for each day of the month of October! ^_^ I found some Halloween prompts on tumblr so I'll be basing these drabbles off of those.

These drabbles take place in an AU where Inuyasha and Kagome are married and have two children: Izayoi, age eleven, and Tai, age five.

Spooktober prompts day 1

Trick

"Trick or treat, Inuyasha…"

The words were purred into his ear as familiar arms draped over his shoulders from behind and wrapped around his neck in a warm embrace. Soft lips grazed his cheek and a grin tugged at the corners of his lips.

Settled comfortably on the couch with his computer in his lap, his feet kicked up on the coffee table and paperwork littering said table, Inuyasha was attempting to get those last few reports for work finished up so he wouldn't have to worry about them tomorrow. Beside him on the couch sat the last two highly coveted cider donuts that he'd bought from Dunkin' Donuts that morning for breakfast and with the kids in bed, the peace and quiet made for optimal work time.

His wife, apparently, thought differently. "Trick or treat, huh," he mumbled and abandoned his laptop to reach behind him and twine his fingers in her dark hair, tipping his head back. Kagome hummed and kissed his nose. "Gimme a treat," he rumbled and she obliged, leaning down to press a soft kiss to his lips.

"Hmmm," Kagome said and licked her lips. "Tastes like cider. You thief." Behind her back she waved her hand and two small figures sneakily crawled into the living room, withholding giggles.

Unrepentant, Inuyasha tugged her back down for another kiss and murmured against her mouth, "I bought 'em. Can't steal something that's rightfully mine."

"You know they'll be upset when they find them gone in the morning."

"They'll survive." He nipped her lip and tried to tug her around so he can pull her onto the couch with him.

Kagome bit her lip and her eyes danced. "Don't you have work to do?" She kept her eyes on his and tried very hard not to look at the small hands stealthily creeping up the couch toward the two donuts by her husband.

"Keh," he mumbled. "It ain't important, no harm in—" Movement out of his peripheral gave him pause and Inuyasha flicked a glance beside him—and his mouth dropped in astonishment. "Hey—!"

Squealing, the sneaky little devils he called his children snatched the coveted cider donuts and made a run for it as their father shot up in surprise.

Laughing, Kagome withdrew and yelled, "Run, kids!" before promptly skittering off after them, her mischievous snickers echoing back to him.

"Kagome! You little—" Unable to hold back the grin, Inuyasha threw his laptop aside and shot off the couch, leaping over the back of it and taking off after his conniving wife and his sly offspring. "Now who's the thief?! You brats, get back here! Dammit, Kagome—!"

Childish laughter drifted back to him as his cheeky wife called out, "Trick or treat, Inuyasha!"
