Well here I am trying to get a idea out of my mind and to all you lovely lovely readers out there. So here is the start of my story...the title...the title needs work. Suggestions would be helpful. Also I am in dire need of a beta-reader or two. Anyone feel like the challange?

Disclaimer: I don't see why we need disclaimers so I'm only going to say it once. I don't own Inuyasha, but if I did I would catch the US dubbed episodes up with the originals. And make more season box sets. Ah well... Just noticed however that I am in complete owning of the twins Tsukiko and Tamasine. Yay go me, I get to rub fuzzy ears in my imagination. :)

So on with the story...

Kagome sighed and then let loose a low moan as hands floated over her skin. The barest touch of claws sending shivers down her back. "Inu," her breath caught and the rest of his name came out in a hiss of air, "Yasha…" Gripping his arms she opened her eyes to look into his. Love being radiated from his swirling golden eyes, continuing to look into them, his face lowered and his lips pressed to hers. Sweet sensations ran over her skin and through her to her bones.

Raising his head, Kagome, reached up to run her finger tips over his cheek and over his lips. "Kagome…" his voice was barley above a whisper when he lowered down again to nuzzle her ear, "time to get up." Confusion entered into her eyes but before she could say another something rammed into her stomach. Eyes closing as his lips pressed against her ear; again she could hear his voice, "Get up Mommy." Mommy!

Brown eyes snapped open and caught the gazes of two sets of liquid gold eyes. Blinking she raised her head up a bit and then sighed when two small bodies snuggled into her from each side, "Mommy it's time to get up." Closing her eyes she pushed her head into the pillow behind her and tried to recall the dream again. Just a few more minuets…just a few more minuets with her long missed love. Again her daughter's voice called to her, "Mommy? Are you okay?"

Kagome didn't move when small fingers traced a lone tear that fell from her eye, "Mom…why are you sad?" Raising her arms, Kagome still didn't respond when she pulled both children to her, clinging to them like they to would disappear.

Golden eyes met golden eyes as the two looked at each other over their Mother's face. It seemed like this had been happening more and more lately and their five year old minds couldn't figure it out. Flicking their ears in a code they only seemed to know the twins just nuzzled their Mother once before pulling back and trying to squirm out of her grasp. "Come on Tamasine, lets make Mommy breakfast."

"Yea! You stay here Mom, Tsukiko and I will bring you something to eat." Waiting only a second for a reaction the two were gone from the bed before Kagome could fully comprehend what was said.

Sitting up she looked at the empty doorway and just sat there, waiting for her sleep fogged mind to realize that it was morning and there wasn't a handsome hanyou there with her. Rubbing her eyes she looked over to where a small battered picture stood in a frame. "Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and Shippou…" Reaching over Kagome picked up the frame and traced the faces caught within. And then looked beyond them to the tear she caught them leaning against when they had been waiting for her to return, the Go-Shinboku shading them from sun. The same tree where her life seemed to start.

Setting down the frame with one last longing look the twenty-four year old swung her legs over the bed, reaching for her robe that hung at the end. Standing she wrapped the soft red cloth over her form. Turning she looked for her slippers to slid them one and only raised an eyebrow when they weren't there. Getting down to her knees she twisted to look under the bed and managed to pull one out, but the other wasn't there.

Bending she managed to hook the slipper on the correct foot and continued to look for the other slipper. "Not under the bed…not under the night stand…not near the closet or door." Confusion ran over her face as she moved into the hallway. It wasn't like her to loose things like this. Passing by a mirror she gave herself a quick glance before looking into the bathroom. There in the middle of the floor near a dropped towel was her slipper.

Sliding it on, Kagome shrugged off the feeling of something hadn't been right, telling herself that she was just tired because she had gotten home from work so late. Looking into the bathroom mirror she studied her own face, wise eyes taking in young features. 'I haven't aged…' Running her fingers over her cheek she tried to shake away the thought, 'Of course I have, just not very noticeable.' Grumbling to herself she leaned down to run her hands under warm water to wash her face with a washcloth near to the sink. Raising back up she scrubbed the sleep from her face. Not noticing the jewel around her neck giving off a faint pulse of light before once more going dormant.
