"…Blazing in the Night Sky." Chapter One: Feelings
"Anata, Hidama, don't stray too far! Go straight to Miroku's," A worried Kagome yelled, watching her seven year old daughter walk with her four year old brother in tow, disappear into the thick forest in which her small family's house, once just hers, was nestled within. "We won't, mother," They called back together, waving goodbye.
Crossing her arms over her chest, Kagome leaned back against the frame of the back door and sighed. It had been five years since the phone call reporting the news of Naraku's escape and in that time nothing unusual had happened, but still…she wondered what that bastard had up his sleeve.
Raising a hand to touch the matching scars at her neck, as she usually did when she needed comforting, she sighed again and went inside, closing the screen door behind her to sit down on one of the comfy chairs, cursing as she hit her foot against one of her son's toys laying on the floor. 'Inuyasha, I wish you were here…I have such a bad feeling,' She thought, rather sadly, touching the scars again before smiling fondly at the memory they gave her.
"Dammit, Kagome, you reek," A silver haired man said, groaning as he sat down the newspaper he'd been reading. "Yes, mommy, reek," A little girl exclaimed ecstatically, mimicking her father.
Raising a brow, she had only glanced down at the small child sitting on the man's lap then looked up at her father, giving a disapproving look at his language before replying, "How so? I just took a shower, Inuyasha."
The man only sighed and shook his head before standing, picking the girl up and kissing her forehead before setting her on her feet, and then grabbing Kagome's wrist and pulling her upstairs, closing the door behind him.
"Inuya-," Kagome began to ask, giving him a questioning look before she was cut off by a pair of lips that glued themselves to hers. Inuyasha rather talently moved them back towards the giant bed where he sat down, pulling her onto his lap, all the while still keeping their lips in contact before they were comfortably sitting together.
Then, breaking apart, Kagome leaned back a little in his grasp, giving him a both questioning and confused look as he only stared back with a heat filled gaze. "Kagome, when I said you reeked, I meant that in a way that only those with youkai blood in them could understand…Male youkai. You're like a siren alerting every one of them for miles that you're up for grabs, I'm surprised none have come already."
Kagome's face became bright red before she looked away, laughing nervously. "But Inuyasha, I'm not up for grabs, I'm married, we're married," She supplied, before looking up again to see Inuyasha's exasperated look. "Fine then, tell me what's going on, Mister Know-It-All."
A soft chuckle came from him then and he answered back, "Kagome, even though we're married, we still haven't finished the mating process. This could be extremely dangerous with Naraku out and lurking about, he could sniff us out anytime he wanted and I don't want to have to bring our daughter into that kind of situation anytime soon."
Kagome nodded at his grim, but stern, look and then wrinkled her brow, asking once more in puzzlement, "Haven't finished the mating process? When did we ever start?" A grinning hanyou leaned forward and whispered in alarming detail about the night after they had returned home from the police station after Naraku's arrest.
Covering her mouth, Kagome let out a small gasp as he said, letting the final sentence dwindle, unfinished, "And then we…" He let out a soft laugh and bit down on his lower lip as he watched the woman on his lap turn into a human shaped tomato.
"Oh, well, heh, the good ol' days," She finally said back, "So how do we fix this little problem?" "Well, how about you let me show you," Inuyasha only replied as his fingers began to trail down her spinal cord.
Kagome blushed as the rest of the memory played out and she leaned back in her chair, giggling like a little school girl. The final step in the youkai mating process had been rather vampiric actually, it hadn't been that difficult, though only a little painful. All he had done was craftily seduced her into sleeping with him in the middle of the afternoon then nipped her on the side of the neck.
There had been a burning sensation, like fire that had seeped through out her veins for a few minutes but she couldn't remember what that had felt like now. She only remembered how differently she saw, smelt, heard, felt, and tasted the world around her, it was like her senses had totally changed to match his, she even seemed a tiny bit stronger, but he still won in their games of rough n' tumble.
But that night was when she'd become pregnant with her second child and nine months later she gave birth to a baby boy with silver hair and doggy ears, like his sister's and his father's, that matched in color and amber eyes. She had named him Hidama, meaning falling star. Though, now that she really thought about it, he'd always been the silent type, taking on much of his father's qualities that she thought he would have had as a small child.
Laughing, she shook her head and got up just as the phone began to ring. Walking over to it, she picked up the receiver and answered it. "Hello? Kagome," A voice said on the other side of the line. "Inuyasha! I was just thinking about you," Kagome said, giggling. "Oh? How so," Inuyasha asked in return, his voice taking on a mischievous tone. Kagome only giggled again in reply as her face began to turn a rosy color once more. "Oh, just thinking, so how are you? When are you getting home tonight?"
Inuyasha, who had been away for the past week on a business trip, grew silent for a moment before answering back softly, "Kagome…I'm going to be gone for another couple days." "What?! Why," Kagome asked, her tone changing from its delighted chirp to one of mixed sadness and anger with a pinch of suspicion. "Are-Is there…something you're not telling me?"
A gasp came from the other side and Inuyasha answered her question with hurt, "Kagome, if you're thinking what I think you are, I swear it's not that. I would never cheat on you, how could you say that?" Kagome's eyes filled with tears as she realized he was telling the truth and she choked back a sob as she said back, "I'm sorry, Inuyasha, I know that, it's just…"
"Just what? What's wrong, did something happen," Inuyasha exclaimed worriedly, knowing very well that something could happen while he wasn't there is Naraku decided to pay his family a visit. "No, no, everyone's fine, it just I miss you, Inuyasha, I want you to come home." Sniffling, she didn't bother telling him the strange feelings she'd been having since the day after he left.
Sighing, Inuyasha said again, "Kagome, I miss you too, I'll be home as soon as I can, I promise." Kagome nodded, and then remembering he couldn't see her, said, "Alright, Inuyasha, I love you." "I love you too, Kagome, I love you so much," Inuyasha answered back quickly in a forceful voice, as if willing the very marrow in her bones to believe it, and she did.
Smiling, she laughed softly as he continued, "Tell Anata and Hidama, and if you talk to him, Shippo, that I love them too and I'll be home soon." Shippo had been away for the last week as well with some friends on summer vacation.
"Mhm, I will."
"Thank you, I love you, I'll see you soon," He repeated, "Or talk to you sooner."
With that, she heard a click as the connection went dead and she felt as if her heart was going to be ripped out of her chest. She felt stupid for feeling like this, but he'd never been gone this long and she was beginning to worry that there was something going on that he wasn't telling her.
'Inuyasha, what going on over there,' She thought, shaking her head as she hung up the phone and went into the living room to pick up the toys that were spread across the floor.
They had put a carpet in the middle of the room shortly after Anata was born so she wouldn't scrape herself up so much and she kind of regretted it now, spotting all the places where substances had spilled over the burgundy colored fabric. 'I'll throw that damn thing away later.'
With that final thought, she walked to the phone again as a feeling of worry formed in her gut, and called to Miroku's house to make sure the kids had made it safely.
