Chapter 6
2 Months Later
Kagome's POV
It's been a very long two months since we have gotten back to the castle, with trying to get back into the swing of things and trying to prepare for the baby to get here it's been busy to say the least.
We have had visits from other royals; Sango and Kikyou want me to do a baby shower for the baby so trying to plan that to make sure I do not let anyone out is very hard. I have been very tired on top of this so I have been taking naps right after lunch; Sesshoumaru has assured me that this is normal though.
I shake my head as I look out over the western lands from our balcony that connects onto our room. My hands are on my very round stomach, in so many ways I wish that my Mother would be able to be here with me right now through my pregnancy.
I think it's almost natural for every woman to want their mother here with them whenever they are pregnant, for them to tell them they are doing it right and that they are going to be a wonderful mother to their baby boy or girl.
I feel Sesshoumaru's strong aura heading towards our room from his study and I move over to the small love seat Sesshoumaru hand moved out here so that I have a place to sit and look at the stars like I have started to do, I sit down and my feet feel so much better.
All at once our little pup starts to kick me and I place my hand where he is kicking and I cannot help but smile at the thought of our little pup growing inside of me.
I hear the door to our room slide open and Sesshoumaru steps into our room and slides it shut, he slowly walks across our room and out onto the balcony with me. I look up at him with a smile on my face and use my free hand to pat the seat beside me and he sets down beside me.
"Sesshoumaru he's kicking. Here feel lit." I say in the most excited voice.
I take his hand and place it where I had mine and where he is kicking, I place mine on top of his. I look up at his face and as soon as he starts to feel him kicking a huge smile comes onto his face.
For a few minutes we sit there in total silence just wrapped up in the wonderful moment with each other but then Sesshoumaru decides to break our silence.
"How do you know it's a boy, koi?" He asks with a slight chuckle in his voice.
"He's strong just like his father, what you mean you don't want a son?" I say in a teasing voice.
"I just want our pup to be healthy; I will love it whether it's a boy or girl."
"Aw Sesshy."
"Why did you just call me Sesshy?" He says.
"There is nothing wrong with me calling you that Sesshy, if you got a problem with it then to bad."
His eyebrow goes way up into his head because normally I never talk like this towards him, but it's these damn pregnancy hormones controlling my very weird moods. He has been on the receiving end of some very bad ones as well.
I watch as Sesshoumaru rolls his eyes at me and I start to feel my mood turning from great to a little agitated, why does he always have to act like the total adult and not as happy as I am bout this pregnancy.
Sesshoumaru's POV
I can already feel Kagome's mood starting to turn, oh god how I hate her mood swings. A lot of the other lord's around my age that already have little pups have warned me of how bad that their mate's mood swings were and how fast they can happen. That I have found out multiple times from saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.
"What doesn't the all mighty Sesshoumaru like being called Sesshy by his mate?" She says in an agitated voice.
"I didn't say I didn't like it but Kagome, it's just I..." I say trying to think of the right words to use so as not to anger her. "I don't mind if you call me it when we are like this but not around anyone else."
After I said it, I regretted it immediately because I see tears coming to Kagome's eyes and I know that I have hurt her and I regret it.
"Oh so you really don't like it then do you? I thought you would but I should have known better." She says as the tears start rolling down her face.
"Kagome I didn't mean it like that. It's just maybe it would be nice if it was between us, like something just for us."
I try smoothing out the situation but with her crazy mood swings I don't know if it is working. I have always hated to see Kagome cry and with her crying right now it makes me feel really bad.
I sigh and wrap my arms around her waist; I gently lift her up and set her into my lap. I lean up and kiss her forehead, while rubbing her back which she has asked me to do a lot.
"Kagome, koi, I love you, I love our pup. Now you know that I hate to see you cry, now why don't we go in and get ready for dinner. I am sure you are very hungry." I say in a sweet voice.
At that same time I hear her stomach growl and a smirk appears on my face and she giggles. She looks at me with a shy smile on her face.
"I guess we are a little hungry." She says.
"Then let us go my darling."
"Lets."
Kagome easily stands up off of my lap and I stand up behind her, I take her hand and we walk in off the balcony to our room. I let her hand go as she walks into the bathroom to go freshen up and I go over to our closet and grab a box that I have hidden far into the closet so that she has not been able to find it.
I bought Kagome a few presents when we were in her time and have been saving them for the right time, there is also a few things in there for the baby that Kagome's mom gave me for her without Kagome's knowledge.
I move the box to another place so she will not find it and walk out of the closet and lean against the wall. I know that there has been one thing that's been bothering her and that is that her Mother will not be able to be here when she gives birth to our pup.
I have been planning something for her that I know will make her very happy and that is to when Kagome is close to going into labor to quickly travel to the sacred well and travel to the future to get her Mother and bring her back here.
I have already talked this over with Kagome's mother and she is very happy to be coming back here for the first time, especially when he daughter will be giving birth to her first grandchild.
The only thing that I have not told Kagome's mother about is the differences between a human birth and a demon's birth, which I will explain to her when we are on our way here. Now just as long as I can keep this a secret from Kagome we will be good.
'Oh my dear Kagome, what a wonderful Mother you will make to our pup!'
