Chapter 10: Peeping Toms
Steam filled the Halliwell Manor's bathroom as Heather enjoyed her peaceful shower - a rare moment of tranquility quickly shattered by familiar bickering outside.
"Your hair's in my face, you pompous silk-wearing—"
"Your mere existence offends me, half-breed."
Heather closed her eyes and counted to ten. Were they seriously fighting AGAIN?
CRACK!
The sound of splintering wood was followed by two distinct yelps and the unmistakable crash of bodies demolishing Piper's prize-winning rose garden.
"MY GOLD MEDAL ROSES!" Piper's scream of horror echoed through the manor.
Wrapped in a towel, Heather stormed to the window. Both brothers lay sprawled amid destroyed flowers - Sesshomaru somehow maintaining aristocratic dignity despite a thorny branch caught in his mokomoko, while Inuyasha spat out rose petals.
"We were merely..." Sesshomaru began with wounded pride.
"Patrolling," Inuyasha finished, picking thorns from his ear.
"Patrolling the BATHROOM WINDOW?" Heather's voice dripped with dangerous sweetness. Both brothers' ears twitched nervously. "Time to SIT and contemplate your life choices."
The subjugation beads glowed. "Wait, no—"
WHAM!
Inuyasha face-planted into rose bushes. But the real shock came watching Lord Sesshomaru - the legendary killing perfection himself - get yanked face-first into mulch by magical beads.
"Did that REALLY just happen?" Piper stared in disbelief.
"Sesshomaru has BEADS?" Heather marveled.
"They're NOT supposed to work!" came Sesshomaru's muffled, deeply offended response.
"Best. Day. EVER," Inuyasha declared, face full of dirt and petals.
"Silence, half-breed," Sesshomaru attempted dignity while picking leaves from his perfect hair.
"Make me, dirt-face!"
"Another SIT?" Heather asked innocently.
WHAM! WHAM!
Two Inu-shaped craters appeared in the rose garden's remains.
then continuing with the bedroom scene.
Both brothers tried to scramble up and escape, only to tangle in each other's hair and trip and falling through the window.
Heather turned to head back to her bathroom, her towel wrapped snugly around her body. What she didn't expect was to slip on a stray rose petal - sending her tumbling directly toward her two mud-covered mates.
"Oh sh-"
CRASH!
She landed sprawled across both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, her towel slightly askew, revealing more than she'd intended. The brothers froze, their golden eyes wide.
Sesshomaru's gaze swept over her, a smirk playing at the corner of his usually stoic mouth. "Well," he drawled, "this is... unexpected."
Inuyasha's ears twitched, a blush spreading across his cheeks. "Uh... nice view," he mumbled, then louder, "I mean - are you okay?"
"Like what you see?" Heather muttered, trying to maintain some dignity while tangled between two demon lords covered in rose petals and mud.
Sesshomaru's smirk deepened. "Indeed."
"Definitely," Inuyasha added, his blush intensifying.
Piper's voice drifted from the house. "Are you kidding me right now?"
Heather groaned. "SIT!"
WHAM!
Both brothers face-planted again, this time with her still somewhat draped across them.
"My roses," Piper mourned in the background. "My dignity. My entire life."
Heather just closed her eyes and counted to ten.
"My ROSES," Piper mourned, then grinned wickedly. "Do it again, sis!"
"If you SITS, you must acquits!" Phoebe called from the kitchen.
"That doesn't even make sense!" Heather laughed.
Both brothers tangled trying to escape, creating an epic mess of mud, petals, and demonic pride.
"This is beneath my station," Sesshomaru declared dramatically.
"Your hair is beneath my ARMPIT!" Inuyasha retorted.
Kikyo's spirit was definitely laughing somewhere. The mighty sons of the Dog General, defeated by a witch in a towel and magical beads.
"Knock. On. The. Door. Next. Time," Heather enunciated clearly.
Two mud-covered, petal-laden sets of golden eyes glared promises of revenge.
"Try me, fluffy," she challenged Sesshomaru.
"Ha! She called you flu—" Inuyasha started.
"SIT!"
WHAM!
"Worth it," Inuyasha mumbled from his crater.
Who knew being a double-mated Charmed One would be this entertaining?
