After a quick shower, I pulled my raven locks up into a ponytail. I put on a red tank top with some black jean shorts and my black converse and then I walked over to the beach. My mind was spinning with hundreds of questions. Once I spotted the other, I stopped. I sighed in frustration.
"Hey, baby. What's your name?" A low and husky voice asked. I spun around and gasped at the person before me. "Is that you, Kagome Higurashi? My have you grown. Your much more lovely and have a much better body than when you were little. Do you remember me?" He asked. I narrowed my eyes.
"How could I ever forget a fucking asshole like you, Naraku?" I asked. "Why don't you go die or something," I suggested. He acted hurt and shook his head.
"Ouch. What did I do to deserve such words?" He asked.
"Broke my friends heart," I answered. He rolled his eyes and then looked at me confused. "Don't tell me that you don't remember Kagura. I know you do. You and her dated for two years and then she found out that the whole time you guys were dating you were off fucking some blonde bitch." I sneered. He narrowed his eyes.
"You have a good memory," He commented. I nodded.
"Fuck off asshole and leave me alone." I said and then started walking toward the others, who were splashing one another with water.
"Are you always going to hate me?" Naraku asked.
"Fuck off already, dude!" I yelled as I spun around and looked at him.
"Fine, but whenever you stop hating me, give me a call." He said and then walked off. I rolled my eyes and wrinkled my nose. Gross. I looked back at the others and watched as Shippo ran over and joined in the fun. I smiled and thought about how it would feel to play with a child as small as Shippo one day. I sighed and walked over to them.
"Yo!" I greeted. They all looked in my direction and smiled. Inuyasha walked over to me. "I actually came over here to talk to you for a minute. I won't stay long." I explained. Shippo and the other frowned. Inuyasha nodded. "Somewhere more quiet," I added. He rolled his eyes. We walked to a little deserted area of the beach.
"What did you want to talk about Kag?" He asked. I sighed and sat on an oversized rock.
"The doctor called me about an hour ago." I said.
"And? What did he say? Is it something bad or life threatening?" He asked. I shook my head. He looked at me confused. "Then what is it?" He questioned. I stood up and walked closer to him.
"I don't know how to tell you." I admitted. He arched an eyebrow as I grabbed his hand. I placed it over my stomach and gently placed my free hand over his cheek. "I'm pregnant." I said. His eyes shot wide open in astonishment.
"What?" He asked.
"We're going to be parents, daddy." I said with a small smile. I watched as his face brightened. A large smile spread across his pale features. He fell to his knees and placed both hands on my stomach.
"I'm going to be a dad?" He asked. I nodded. "Your having my kid?" He asked. I rolled my eyes and nodded.
"Who else, idiot?" I asked. He chuckled and then placed a kiss on my stomach.
"Our little baby, huh? I like the sound of that." He admitted.
"So do I," I added. He smiled up at me and stood up.
"I love you, Kagome Higurashi." He said. I smiled and nodded. He leaned forward and kissed me. He licked my bottom lip asking for an entrance that I was more than happy to give. My lips parted as I felt his tong slowly move into my mouth and play with mine. Our tongs wrestled with one another.
"Kagome?" A familiar voice called in an icy tone. Inuyasha and I pulled away and looked at who called me. Koga stood there with wide eyes. "Why?" He asked. I sighed and shook my head.
"We've been through this already, Koga. I love Inuyasha." I said. Koga clenched his teeth and violently shook his head. "Koga, I have proof that I love Inuyasha." I said with a wicked grin. Koga looked at us confused. Inuyasha gave him a dark smirk.
"Koga, Kagome is pregnant." Inuyasha said in a teasing voice. Koga's eyes grew wide as he looked from Inuyasha to me and then back to Inuyasha.
"Your joking, right?" Koga asked. I shook my head.
"Nope," I said with a smile.
"How?" He asked. I thought that over for a moment and then looked at him.
"Well, you see when two people are in love th-."
"I don't need to know that!" Koga cut me off. Inuyasha started laughing so hard that he actually fell on the floor. I giggled at how stupid he looked. Koga's cheek were as red as a tomato.
"You're the one who asked, Koga." I defended. Inuyasha straightened himself out and then stood up. He snickered a little more and then finally relaxed. I watched as his features went from a ballistic child to a serious teenager. I smiled and nudged him. He looked down at me and smiled. "I'm going to head back to the beach house. I'll see you later." I said. I was already walking off when Inuyasha pulled me back against his chest in a tight embrace.
"I'll go with you," He demanded. I nodded and then we left the blushing Koga behind. We told Sango, Miroku, and Shippo what happened and then Inuyasha and I headed to the house. Miroku and Sango were completely stunned, but still happy for us.
"And so begins the nine months of horrid torture, raging hormones, and disgusting cravings." I said as Inuyasha and I sat on the bed. He chuckled. "Actually it's ten months, doctors just tell you it's nine." I added. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and shook his head. He reached over me and snatched the remote. When he turned on the TV, it was still on the same channel I left it. I giggled lightly when I saw Bugs Bunny eating his carrot.
"You like this?" Inuyasha asked as he looked at me.
"Yup," I answered. He arched an eyebrow. "What's up doc?" I asked. He chuckled while I giggled. "Bugs Bunny is my favorite cartoon character and he always will be!" I exclaimed as I threw myself back on the bed.
"Wow. I never knew that. That's cool, because he's my favorite too." Inuyasha said. I sat up straight and looked at him.
"No lie?" I asked. He shook his head.
"No lie." He repeated.
"Awesomeness!" I yelled. Inuyasha and I laughed like idiots as we watched Looney Tunes. I looked down at my stomach and cocked my head. I had never thought of myself as a mother. To think that growing inside me was a small child. My baby. I felt a warm tear run down my face as I laid my hand on my stomach.
"Kagome, are you okay?" Inuyasha asked. I looked up at him and nodded.
"Inuyasha, I don't know how to explain it, but I'm not scared. I'm happy that I'm going to be the mother of your child." I started. I reached out, grabbed his hand, and laid it on my stomach. "Our baby. This is our baby. I love you, Inuyasha and I want to have this child. I want to stay with you forever and live together as a family. I don't care if people say we are to young. I want to feel the warmth of its small fragile body, I want to hear the beat of it's heart, and most of all I want to see it look upon us as it's parents. I want to have your child, Inuyasha." I finished. Inuyasha smiled and nodded. He pulled my onto his lap and looked into my eyes.
"Then I will grant your wish. I want you to have that child and I am going to stay with you forever." He said. I smiled and kissed him. We pulled apart once our lungs practically cried out and begged for air. I laid my head on his shoulder and tried to catch my breath. "I think we should start heading back home." He suggested. I nodded and moved myself off his lap. I stood up and sighed.
"Baby!" Shippo's voice rang out. All I saw was a small blur running in my direction and the next thing I knew Shippo had his arms wrapped around my waist and his ear to my stomach. "Why can't I hear anything?" He asked. I giggled and shook my head.
"Shippo, I'm not even sure if it has a body yet." I said. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and yanked the little boy away from me by the collar.
"Yea, now get the hell out of here!" Inuyasha barked. I sighed and shook my head in disappointment.
"Inuyasha," I called. He looked up at me. "Put Shippo down." I said. He frowned and put him down. Shippo ran behind me and then stuck out his tong at Inuyasha.
"Kagome, have you seen Ship-" Sango shut up as she scanned the room. Her soft brown eyes landed on the small boy behind me. "Never mind." She stated with a frown. "Shippo, you should have told me you were going to come back to the house instead of just leaving like that." Sango scowl. "What are you guys up to?" She asked as she looked from Shippo to me.
"Getting ready to start heading back home. I know we haven't been here long, but I'm pretty sure my little problem needs us to go back." I said. Sango smiled and nodded.
"I'll go call Miroku so we can pack our stuff." She said. "He is going to be so disappointed we never got to wear the clothes he brought for us." She said with an almost too happy voice. We all laughed for a moment as Miroku made his way up to the room. Once he entered, we all shut up. Sango and I still snickered a little, but he didn't seem to notice.
"We're leave in the morning," I said as I zipped up my last bag of clothes. Inuyasha nodded as he tossed himself onto the bed. "I'm going to go tell the others." I notified him as I walked over to the door. He looked at me for a moment and then nodded. I walked over to the others and told them what I told Inuyasha. After I told them, I went straight back to my room and went to sleep in Inuyasha's arms.
"Why do you have to leave?" Shippo whined. I sighed and kneeled down to his height.
"Shippo, I have to go. I have things to do back home. I'm positive that your dad is worried about you right now. Go home, kiddo." I said as I ruffled his red hair. He smiled, but a tint of sorrow filled his eyes. "I'll come back next summer and next time you see me I won't be alone. I'll have she/he with me as well." I said. I reached out, grabbed Shippo's hand, and laid it on my stomach. He smiled and nodded. "See you later, kid." I said as I stood back up. Inuyasha got a taxi to drive us to the airport.
"Nervous?" Inuyasha asked. I shook my head.
"No, not as long as your with me." I said.
"Forever," He whispered.
