Chapter 10: Love and family. Inuyasha's baby

(Inuyasha's P.O.V)

Hearing Sango tell us it's okay to come in made me freeze. Shockingly looking over Sesshomaru was already inside. Checking on Masami, sniffing her down. Then sniffing Rin. He even checked the baby and the others as well. Apparently knowing they mean something to me means they mean a little something to him.

I slowly move forward, but I am man enough to admit I am scared out of my wits. I move to Rin's side and kneel before her. I rest my head on her shoulder, sniffing her. Checking to make sure she is alright. She smiles and runs her fingers through my hair. That always makes me relax. She giggles and whispers to me. "You okay Yasha?"

I smile and nod. "I am okay love. How are you? How's the little one?"

Rin giggles again. "See for yourself, I am fine though."

I look over and I see Kaede cleaning up the baby. My baby. I don't care if he or she isn't my blood. That baby is mine. It's what I've always wanted. A family. Love. I move over to Kaede and smile when she lays the bundle in my arms. Kaede whispers. "Say hello to your son."

I smile "My son. My son. Hello little man. I can't wait for you to grow tall and strong like your grandfather."

Sesshomaru stepped over to me, he smirks as he lays his clawed hand on my shoulder. "Like your father too little pup."

I see Rin sitting up and looking at us. "So where is the gloating of you being right about it being a boy?"

I move to her side and lay our baby in her arms and laugh. "I would have loved him if he was a she. He's perfect Rin. Just like you."

Rin rolls her eyes at me and smiles. "But you're still happy it's a boy yes?"

Inuyasha smirks. "Yes, yes I am. Now get some rest love."

After a few hours everyone left Rin fell asleep. I decided to step outside holding our little boy in my arms, not wanting our son waking his mother. I decided to sit against the hut so I wasn't too far from Rin in case she needed me, or he needed to be fed, humming a song that seemed so long ago since I last heard it. Whispering as he stares at me, his fingers gripping my hair.

"Hiro? No, something stronger. Mama fell asleep before she and I could talk about it."

Staring at him, I think long and hard, the baby just staring as if thinking as well. I know he needs a strong name so that no one would pick on him, though I know it will happen anyways.

Daiichi, I like that more. My sweet boy. My son. I'll love you forever. There will be plenty of people that will make fun of you, just like me you will not belong. Born of a human and a demon. Just like your mother, born of humans but raised by a demon. You will not fit into the world with the humans or the demons, but you will have friends that will become your family. Like I have. Like your mother has."

Thinking back I realize that Daiichi will have a better chance than I ever did. Father had died before I even knew him. Sesshomaru had wanted me dead because of father choosing who had Tetsuiga. It wasn't really even because of me. It was because of power, and with the belief that no half demon would ever have enough power.

Now I realize if father had lived maybe Sesshomaru and I wouldn't have taken so long to reconcile. Now though, my son and my mate have a chance of belonging, more than I ever did. Rin has Sesshomaru as her father figure; no demon in their right mind would attack her. Me, I'd make sure no human would harm my family. No one would harm my family. Plus with Miroku, Sango, Kohaku, Shiyori, Kirara, Shippo and Souten now here Daiichi has more than a good chance, he has a great chance. Looking down I see he is falling asleep. Standing up I carrying Daiichi back inside seeing Rin up and smiling at me, I lay the little pup in her arms so she can nurse. I stand watching them together.

I whisper softly, "It's a new beginning for you, for me and your mama as well little pup. Full of Love and family."

Rin looks up. "What Yasha?"

I smile and slip into bed with her as she tries to coax him awake. I chuckle. "Nothing love. Just he will have love and family always."

Rin hums in agreement and rests herself against me before the three of us are sleeping.
