With Bankotsu, Miroku and Inuyasha as constant bed-mates, what followed was nothing short of amusing for Sesshoumaru to watch play out.

All of this nightly activity had caused a change in the usual morning routine and Sesshoumaru seized the opportunity. He knew Kouga had to know what was going on and if anything made the wolf demons hackles rise it was feeling left out.

So when Sesshoumaru sauntered into the kitchen Kouga was seated at the table quietly seething. He was there to retrieve Bankotsu's beloved bowl of fruit because he simply would not go another morning without it and considering all of the entertainment he's provided Sesshoumaru was more than happy to indulge him.

"Good morning, Kouga."

"It is for you I'm sure."

"Is there something wrong?" Sesshoumaru asked feigning ignorant.

Kouga merely glared at him and went back to stuffing his face. Sesshoumaru asked again as he gathered up the bowl and when he was ignored he disappeared from the room.

When night fell and they all had yet emerge from Sesshoumaru's room Kouga had reached his boiling point. Marching up the stairs and down the hall he flung the door of Sesshoumaru's chambers open only to receive a shock.

"It's about damn time you got your head out of your ass and joined the fun," Inuyasha shouted.

"I was beginning to wonder about you my friend," Miroku chimed in from his position splayed across Sesshoumaru's lap.

"It figures you'd be the one late for the party," Bankotsu finally said once his mouth was free to speak.

"All of you can bite me you know that," Kouga grumbled as he peeled out of his clothing.

"Be careful what you wish for Ookami, we may do just that and then some."
