Chapter 2: Sisters Together Again and Inu Feelings

The moment the lovers entered the throne room, Kagome practically tackled her sister. "SERENA!!! I missed you so much!" Kagome said as she hugged her sister.

Serena cringed a bit from the tackle but let her sister hug her. "I missed you too sis."

"Lady Kagome. Please be careful of my mate. She is still very pregnant with out heir." Sesshomaru said as he looked at his sister-in-law.

Kagome pulled away and smiled. "Sorry. I just missed my sister."

Sesshomaru nodded. "I understand."

Serena went over to a chair and sat down. "My stomach has gotten really heavy." She said as she started rubbing her belly.

Inuyasha came over and gently poked her stomach. "So this is how babies are born."

Serena giggled. "Yep. This is how everyone is born."

"I was never that small." Inuyasha said as he folded his arms. "Why I?"

"Yes you were Inuyasha. I have seen you as a baby and you were very small." Sesshomaru said as he sat beside Serena.

Inuyasha looked away blushing. Serena just giggled at him. "But it looks like you're going to be an Uncle Inuyasha, once our heir is born."

Inuyasha just blushed even more. Kagome laughed and placed a hand on her sisters stomach. "And i'm going to be an Aunt."

Serena smiled and then whinced again. "It's getting really roudy inside me lately."

"Do you know if it's a boy or girl yet?" Sango asked as she came near Serena. Kilala and Shippo jumped up on to Serena's shoulder to look at her better.

"No. They don't have the technology here to figure that out like they do in my time." Serena rubbed her stomach more. The pup wouldn't stop squirming inside her.

"You okay sis?" Kagome looked at her sister worriedly.

"I'm not sure. The pup won't stop squirming." She looked up at Sesshomaru confused. "Why am i calling our child a 'pup'instead of a 'baby'?"

"Because you are a dog demon dear. It's only natural that you call our child a pup." Sesshomaru said as he smiled at her. "You should rest now. The pup is going to be born soon and you need all the strenght you can get."

"Soon?" Everyone looked at Sesshomaru confused.

"Yes. Very soon. The pup is squirming alot. Meaning that it is almost time for the pup to be born." He said as he looked at his wife.

"How soon?" Serena looked scared and worried.

"A few days or so." He said as he rubbed her belly. "Why do you look so scared?"

"I've seen my mom go into labor with Souta. She was in terrible pain. And since the fuedal era doesn't have the technology my era does, it's going to be extremely painful for me."

"Don't worry so much. You are a full blooded demon remember? It won't be as painfull for you if you were human." He said as he looked at her.

"Are you sure?"

He nodded. "Yes. I'm positive."

Serena nodded. "Okay. If you say so."

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked softly as she looked at him.

"Yes Lady Kagome?"

"Do you mind if we stay here while my sister is pregnant?"

"WHAT!!!!" Inuyasha exploded. "Are you insane? Why would i want to stay in my half brothers castle?!!!!"

"I don't want to leave my sister while she's pregnant with my future nephew or nease! So just deal with it!" Kagome yelled even louder then Inuyasha. Serena was just smiling and laughing softly at her sister.

Inuyasha shrunk and backed away. "Okay okay fine. We'll stay geez."

"SIT BOY!!!" Kagome yelled.

Inuyasha slamed to the ground and groaned.

Sesshomaru looked at Serena a little scared for himself. He still had his rosery around his neck. He shivered as he remember the one day that Serena wouldn't stop 'heeling' him during one of her mood swings. "I hate this stupid rosery. Are you ever going to take it off dear?"

"Why would I? It matches your eyes dear." She said as she smiled at him.

"No it doesn't. The beads are dark purple. My eyes are gold." He said as he pointed at his necklace.

"Oh yeah." Serena just laughed.

Sesshomaru sighed and shook his head. "You are so strange."

"I am not stra..." She was stopped by him kissing her on the lips lovingly.

"I know. It's just the reason why i love you." He said as he smiled at her.

Serena smiled and kissed him back.

"I feel like i'm gonna hurl." Inuyasha mumbled as he turned away from seeing his brother being so mushy.

"Well if you would just confess to my sister that you love her maybe you wouldn't feel so sick about this." Serena said as she smirked at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha started blushing again. "What make you think i love Kagome?" He sounded nervous as he spoke.

"Oh please. I know you love her you idoit. It was so bloody obvisous when we went to go after Naraku to save her. I noticed that look you had in your eyes during that time. They were full of worry and concern for my sister." Serena was still smirking at him even if it was at his back. "You can't hide anything from me Inuyasha. I have a special talent for reading a persons emotions just from looking at their eyes."

Inuyasha just turned red even more, not saying anything to anyone. Serena sighed and slowly got up.

"Are you okay dear?" Sesshomaru asked as he helped her to stand up.

"Yeah. That chair is just kinda uncomfortable."

"Then sit on my lap dearest. I don't want you to tire yourself out." He said as he sat down. His armor was still off yet he was still wearing the fluff. He pulled the fluff out from under him and set it on his lap so she could sit on it.

Serena sighed and sat back down on his lap. "So comfy." She said as she layed her head down on his chest.

Sesshomaru chuckled. "Now about your stay. Yes you can stay here while Serena is pregnant and anytime after that if you want too. I'll have my servents make you a room where you can all stay "

Kagome cheered. Sango and Miroku smiled. Inuyasha just shrugged like he didn't care.


It was near night fall when the Inu gang were in their own rooms. Sango and Miroku didn't mind having their own rom together since they were actually together now. Rin had begged for Shippo to stay in her room and neither Sesshomaru or Kagome didn't mind.

"He has been wanting to play with someone his own age lately." Kagome said as she watched the two kids run down the hallway toward Rin's room.

Kagome and Inuyasha were given a room of their own. Kagome didn't mind but Inuyasha was having problems getting used to the one that there was only ONE bed in the room. Serena must have planned this somehow. He thought as he stood out on the balcony.

Kagome was asleep on the bed. They had been traveling all day and she was tired. Inuyasha peeked into the bedroom and watched her sleep. But Serena is right. I do love her. I love Kagome with all my heart. I'm just to damn proud to say it. Why can't I just admit thatIi love Kagome? It wasn't that hard for Sesshomaru. Why is it so hard for me? He thought as he looked at the sleeping priestess on the bed.

He sighed and went over the bed and sat next to her. He then layed down next to her, back to back. "Why is it so hard for me to say that I love Kagome?" He mumbled before he drifted off to sleep.
