Chapter 14: Successful?
"Kagome? Love, wake up." Naraku whispered in her ear.
"Just a few more months Naraku." Kagome rolled over slowly.
Indeed, three months had passed, and a bump easily took up on her stomach.
"I wouldn't disturb you, if I didn't know you had to eat, for the child and yourself." Naraku chuckled, a hand brushing through her hair.
"Mmm." Was all Kagome replied.
"Come on Kagome." Naraku said, still calm.
Kagome smiled as she felt him kiss her neck.
"Wake up." Naraku said, kissing her neck again before lightly, very lightly nipping at it.
"Ok, ok, fine." Kagome said, and she sat up.
The love bites didn't hurt her, but the nips were annoying.
"Here." Naraku turned and grabbed a tray, and presented it to her.
"I'm not a princess, y'know." Kagome said, smiling as she took the tray.
"No, but as my mate, you are treated with the greatest respect." Naraku said.
"Hmm, well now that you have me awake, what are we going to do today?"
"Whatever you want. Spend time with your friends, spend time with family...Or spend time with me." Naraku said, preparing to put an arm around her.
"Uh-uh, not while I'm eating, and not while the child is watching." Kagome put on hand out to him, to stop his actions, and she smiled down at her stomach as if she could see the child.
"Well, you can't blame me, you're the one that got me into all that." Naraku said.
"Aww, I know. We can do it again soon." Kagome said, giving him a sarcastic pity look.
It went quiet then as Kagome continued to eat.
5 and a half months later
"Already?" Kaede asked, as Kagome was escorted by Naraku to her hut.
"It's almost been nine months, yes!" Kagome growled out.
This birth was true, she was about to have her first child!
Kagome laid on a bed as Kaede moved to Kagome's legs, Naraku began to leave.
Kagome put a death iron grip on his hand, "Don't you dare leave me!"
"Jeez Kagome, do you have to try and break my hand?" Naraku asked, although he sat next to her, ignoring most of the pain, being a demon.
"Yes! This feels worst that the miscarriage!" Kagome managed to growl through ragged breathing.
"Ok Kagome, ye need to push now." Kaede said.
Kagome took a deep breath and did as she was told, and was overcome by pain.
Naraku's hand almost began to start snappin, if she were to squeeze any tighter.
"Ye need to push more." Kaede said, noticing Kagome stop short.
"You think this is easy!" Kagome snapped at her.
"Come on Kagome, you can do it." Naraku knelt down, lightly pressing his lips to her forehead.
Kagome did try, but another jolt of pain made her cry out, making her lose her strength again.
"Keep trying Kagome." Kaede said.
"I can't." She cried.
"Yes you can Kagome. It will all be over soon. Then you can hold your child." Naraku whispered in her ear.
Kagome took a deep breath, and clenched her teeth as she attempted another push.
"That's it Kagome." Kaede said.
Kagome breathed again, her breaths coming in pants.
Naraku continued to whisper to her, some of his words didn't make sense, but they comforted her.
After about an hour of pushing, breathing, pushing, breathing, a cry filled the hut, and Kagome let out a deep breath of relief.
Kaede wrapped the baby up after cleaning it.
"Well, it looks like you got what you wanted Kagome, a girl." Kaede said.
Kagome gasped as Kaede set the baby in her arms.
The baby was asleep, and to Kagome, it was the most beautiful thing to see, her baby sleeping in her arms.
"She is beautiful." Naraku said.
"Yeah. What should we name her?" Kagome asked.
"That is your choice." Naraku said.
"Well, she is beautiful... Naomi." Kagome said.
"Naomi." Naraku said himself, as if to agree.
"Sorry about breaking your hand." Kagome said.
"You didn't break it. Just a couple cracked bones, nothing I can't fix." Naraku said.
Kagome smiled, "I am so happy now, everything is complete."
"You're friends are going to go crazy over Naomi." Naraku said.
"Yeah, I'm going to wait a while though, I want some time between us, as a family, you know?" Kagome said.
"I understand. Only one other will know of Naomi for now, and that is Kanna." Naraku said.
Kanna had stayed with Naraku since they moved.
"I've already talked to her about being a big sister." Kagome said.
"Ah." Naraku nodded.
"Well, I think I'm going to sleep here for a while, we can go home tonight." Kagome said.
"Of course." Naraku said.
"Here, would you hold her?" Kagome asked.
"Of course." Naraku repeated, and Kagome handed him the small baby wrapped in a warm blanket.
Naomi still slept, seeming to like her father's comfort too.
"Naraku, thanks." Kagome said as she turned on her side.
"For what?" Naraku asked.
"For what? You helped me restore the Jewel shards so I could be happy with my family, you gave your love to me, you gave me Naomi. I feel so...Complete now. And I love you, so much." Kagome said.
Naraku smiled lightly, his heart racing, "I love you to Kagome. Get some rest. As much as you need."
Kagome nodded and went to sleep.
1 Year Later
"Papa." Naomi giggled as she attempted to stand, but fell forward, only to land in his arms again.
"You're getting there." Naraku said.
They hadn't even tried to teach her how to walk yet, and she was already trying to walk.
"Ok, are we ready to go visit Aunt Sango?" Kagome asked.
"Sangi!" Naomi giggled hapilly.
"Maybe we should teach her more to talk than walk." Kagome said.
"Why? Does it matter? She talks all the time, and she won't give up trying to stand." Naraku said as he once again caught Naomi from a failed stand.
"All ready to go Mamma." Kanna skipped into the room.
"Ok, let's go." Kagome said, picking up Naomi.
The four headed out.
Yes. Kanna had aged a little and was also more responsive and open to others, and thought of herself not as a servant, but a daughter.
And daughter she was.
Naomi was a half demon, and had Kagome's eyes, but Naraku's hair.
All was right with the world.
InuYasha had asked tracked down Kagura and asked her to stay with him.
Miroku and Sango had there children.
Shippo was mainly with Kohaku who was rarely seen.
Rin had made her decision to stay with Sesshomaru and understood she would never return.
"mama." Naomi said.
"Yes?" Kagome looked down at her.
"We...We always together?" Naomi asked.
"Yes we will be. No need worry about that." Kagome said, kissing Naomi on the forehead.
"Good." Naomi smiled.
That night, when Naomi was asleep, Naraku and Kagome were still awake.
"Have I told you that I loved you?" Kagome asked.
"So much that I've lost count." Naraku said.
"Well, don't count... Know. That I love you. I can hardly believe you were some psychotic demon that desired a jewel." Kagome said.
"Well it's all thanks to you. You opened my heart up." Naraku said.
"All you needed was a friend, someone to make you feel, someone to open your soul." Kagome said.
"That's me. The Enigmatic Soul, the one only YOU understand." naraku said.
Kagome smiled and kissed him, "I love you Naraku."
"I love you too, Kagome." Naraku said.
Kagome rolled over, burying into the sheets, and Naraku's arm wrapped around her, and pulled her close.
The two fell asleep.
A/N: Well this is the end. Notice that I made this sequel the same chapter count as my "heartless enemy with a strange desire"!
