Chapter 1: illness

2 months later...

Kagome

I rushed into the woods and vomited everything left in my stomach. I didnt understand stand while i felt so horrible. I had been sick for such a long time. InuYasha went with Miroku and Sango to kill a band of demons tourturing towns folks quite a pretty good distance away.

They had been gone for almost a month and I had been sick back then before they left to. I was staying with Kaede to rest and try to get back on my feet.

However. It wasnt working out very well.

My mouth tasted horrible and i went to rinse it out in the nearby stream. I splashed water onto my face, and wiped off my face with the bottom of my shirt. Slowly i got up and made my way back to Kaedes hut. I was tired and she would have a cup of tea that would settle my stomach mostly.

Kaede was sitting down with her eyes closed when i walked in. "Shouldnt InuYasha and the other be coming back soon Kaede?" I knew she was awake.

"Yes very soon my dear. Ye dont have to worry about those three. They are fine," She smiled a little and opened her eyes.

Not long after that Shippo came racing in with the crayons i had given him as well as paper. "Kagome! Kagome! Look what i drew!" He held up a picture of a butterfly surronded by flowers.

"Thats wonderful Shippo. You did such a great job," I smiled and grabbed a cup of tea and began to sip.

After i finished i set dowm my cup and Shippo jumped into my arms.

"When do you think InuYasha should be coming back Kagome," He asked me in that little voice of his.

He was now training to become a number one fox demon. So far he was the best in his class.

"Kaede said the should be back soon. Why are you worried Shippo?"

"Im not worried i just want to see the others. They have been gone for sooo long." He said dramaticlly which caused me to roll my eyes. His nose twitched and he stared at the opening in the door. "I smell Koga nearby Kagome. I bet he is stopping to see you," Right after Shippo finished Koga appeared in the entrance way.

"what are you doing here Koga?" I looked at him suspiciously.

"Figures. InuTrasha already claimed you before i had time," Grumbled softly to himself.

I scowled at him. "HIS NAME ISNT INUTRASHA! Its InuYasha now say it right! InuYasha." Glaring at him I crossed my arms.

"Doesnt matter," He said almost like he was distracted. "Well anyways i just wanted to stop by and say hello...Goodbye," He raced out of here without a backwards glance.

"That was rude," I mumbled quietly.

Kaede

Kaede chuckled softly. For she had already guessed what might be wrong with Kagome she just wasnt sure. She wanted to wait until InuYasha got back before comfirming anything.

Kagome

That night i went to bed early since i was exhausted and couldnt keep my eyes open. As soon as my head touched the pillow I was out of it.

InuYasha

He sat there for a long while. His nose could have been wrong but it wasnt. His ears could have been wrong but they were not either. Kagome was carrying his pups. His scent was all over her and he hadnt been with her for over a month.

Something along the lines of proudness and protectivness rose in him at that moment. Not only that but he was terrifed about this. Did Kagome know? Would she keep it a secret from him? He really doubted that since she probably hadnt figured it out yet. He had arrived at their huts later that night but she had been asleep.

He lay his sword down beside her sleeping bag and curled up beside of her. He scanned over her face and listened to her deep breathing before laying his head against her stomach. Besides for Kagomes heartbeat he heart two tiny other ones fluttering in the sleeping body underneath him. His pride swelled up and he smirked.

For some odd reason the thought that Kagome was rasing their pups made him extremely happy. He continued to gently press his ear and the side of his face against her rounded belly. She was showing even at two months. He had no clue why though.

A voice clouded his thoughts though. "Inu...?" Kagome looked at him through sleep blurry eyes.

Kagome

"Inu...?" I looked at Inuyasha tiredly and yawned. He had come back sometime when i was asleep and decided to...Lays his head against my belly? What was up with that?

"W-what are you doing?" I looked at him confused.

"Listening," He returned simply.

"To my stomach?" His answer made me even more confused.

"To my pups," He grinned proudly. "Their heartbeats are strong," He layed his head back down against my stomach.

His words whispered through my sleep fogged head. "Im not pregnant," Instant denial was something i had learned to subjects like this.

"Yes, you are. I can hear my sons heartbeats perfectly. Loud and clear," His ears twitched as he said the words.

I took some time to think about it. I had missed two periods but with me being sick and InuYasha and us mating so recently i hadnt thought about it much. All the signs were there. The puking, the craving and mood swings, the missed periods and the roundness of my stomach. How could i of not noticed the changes of my own body. I felt like an idiot.

"Do you believe me wench?" He crossed his arms and smirked. "Well i guess you dont have to believe me because you will see im correct soon enough."

I gritted my teeth. "do not call me wench InuYasha and I believe you," I told him trying not to glare. "Can we please just sleep for a while. We can talk about this in the morning," In truth. I didnt think i would be able to sleep and then i thought of something. "Sons?"

"Yes, sons." He continued to smirk that devilish smirk.

"Why not daughters and how many are there?" I said almost worried. InuYasha would probably want me here when i delieverd but it was a freightning thought to not be around a hospital if something went wrong.

"Twins and they will be sons because i believe they will be," He gripped my hand in a steady grip.

Twins I thought Wildly. We were going to have twins. I placed my hand on my belly and felt the swolleness of it. I guess i didnt have food poisoning after all. "Girls," I said knowing i wanted a daughter.

"Boys"

"Girls"

"Boys"

"Girls."

"Boys."

"Boys." I said trying to confuse him.

"Girls he said in a smug tone until i laughed.

"I told you we were having daughters," I giggled and sqeezed his hand.

"I still say we are having a boy," InuYasha didnt like to be trick and was currently wearing a frown on his face.

"In your dreams," I moved over and leaned my head against his chest. Closing my eyes i absorbed his warmth and began to get tired again. Slowly, i drifted back off to sleep.

When i awoke. It was with a violent start. Appearently InuYasha had decided to make breakfast and the smell had my stomach heaving painfully. I ran outside and heaved its contents in the yard, i hadnt none InuYasha had followed until he pulled back my hair away from my damp forehead and neck.

"Im so sorry your sick because of this but it will go away," He released my hair and gave me a hug. I was surprised as his generosity. I didnt picture InuYasha as the fatherly type. I had hoped and it was a miracle he actually was. I just felt horrible for my daughter when she grew up. Her dad was going to be soo protective of her.

I just knew we were going to have a little girl. We had to of. Just thinking of babies made my insides turn soft and make me want to think about sweet cuddly things.

Carefully we both walked back inside. Him slowing his pace so i could keep up.

"Are you hungry or no?" His eyes watched my every movement.

I thought about that for a moment. My stomach was growling loudly and i realized i was famished. "Yes please."

He gave a pert nod and went to go finish making our breakfast.

I raised up my shirt and tried to look at my belly from diffrent angles. I was only two months and already i was showing. Horribly. If i went back home mother would surely notice. This was the bad thing about having more than one baby. The more children there were the bigger you got. Also the more dangerous it was for the babies.

InuYasha came back in at that moment without me realizing it.

"How come you are that big for only two months?" He frowned at me and thought about Sangos pregnancy.

"Remember Songas twin girls? Twins always make you show at an early stage," I flushed a soft pink. I wasnt used to talking about these thing with him. Only my mom. Oh gosh what was i supposed to tell her? That i put on alot of wait? Hell no I dont look fat i look pregnant. I grimaced. Just great.
