Inuyasha POV:

She did it...she really fucking did it! I stood there staring blankly at my bedroom door, which was locked with a sign taped on it reading:

Come in and your dead meat Inu-baby, If you think i'm kidding try me...I DARE you.

- love Kagome

I growled at the neatly written note on my door before knocking, "really Kagome open the door!"

Kagome's sent wafted from the bottom of the door flooding my senses, I was so lost in sakura blossoms and vanilla spice I almost missed her reply, "Cant you read? I told you that you where in the dog house, this is what you get!"

I felt my eye twitch and a half growl half whine escape my throat, My demon parts wanted nothing more than to break down the door and punish my naughty disobedient bitch while my human side knew that it was entirely my fault she was angry in the first place and I probably deserved this. I sighed "Seriously babe unlock the door and lets talk."

"No Im teaching you a lesson!"

Feh. Ill teach you a lesson..I did nothing wrong your my bitch. If I want to touch you I will and no one can stop me from saying what I want about your body. your mine and Im yours. I wont let you forget that. I growled and shook the thoughts away, not wanting to let my instincts rule my judgement and upset Kagome more, "Baby please lets just talk for five minutes then ill leave you alone if you want."

I smiled when I heard the click of the door unlocking but I exchanged it for a look of shock when I took in her appearance. she was wearing nothing but a towel, her hair wet, her face flushed red in anger, and gods her sent was coming off her in waves, unblocked by the thin fabric of the towel. She glared up at me, "well?"

I gulped and tried not to focus on the water dripping down her hair and disappearing into the valley of her breasts, "can I come in first? its a private conversation.."

She stepped back and opened the door wider, "fine."

I walked in and waited for her to shut the door behind us to speak, "look I know I have said this like a hundred times Kagome but Im sorry. I know I should not have said those things and I defiantly should have locked the door. But babe c'mon aren't you overreacting just a bit?"

"Do you know how embarrassing it is having you talk about our sex life in front of my two best friends, your brother, and your father!"

I mentally flinched, knowing fully that it was embarrassing to her. hell its even embarrassing to me whenI really think about it. I felt my ears flatten against my head as her sent became clouded with the salty smell of sadness amplified by her unshed tears, the entire thing was clearly extremely upsetting to her. Mate. I upset my mate.I couldn't help but agree with my inner demon and whine, "Kagome...Please don't be so sad Im so sorry I didn't mean to upset you, I love you and I never want to see you like this. The fact that its my fault makes me a horrible mate."

I mentally panicked when her sent changed and a tear slipped down her face, I didn't have time to figure out what the new sent was before she spoke, "r-really? you mean it? you love me?"

I looked at her dumbfounded, "well no shit sherlock!" I growled a little and used my demon speed to have her in my arms and on the couch in seconds before nuzzling and licking her neck affectionally, "Your going to be my mate, your meant for me and I for you, your my life Kagome. I thought we went over that."

She wiggled a bit in my arms to make me look up at her, "Well...yeah we went over it but...you said a demons mate was the only person they could love...Hearing what you said today made me worry that maybe your emotions didn't run as deep as I thought.."

I blinked at her once. twice. then I growled, "what the hell! you doubted me?!" I felt my ears fall in depression, have I not been good enough to her? is there something I'm missing? something she needs that I have yet to give her?

I was shocked out of my thoughts when I felt her run a hand through my bangs and travel through my hair to my receded ears. I looked up to see her scanning my face worriedly, "Oh Inu...don't worry your an amazing boyfriend, an amazing mate, hell baby your just amazing. You have given me everything I need and more, please don't doubt yourself because of my insecurities."

I looked down at our laps, "how-"

"Inu, It was written all over your face." She cupped my face in her hands and forced me to look at her -not like I was resisting, I was putty in this women's hands and would do anything just to see her smile- when our eyes met she gently stroked my cheek, "I love you Inuyasha Takahashi, Im sorry I overreacted It was upsetting but no reason to get so mad, Im just worried about everything going on and hate that you tried to keep me out of the loop."

I felt my eyes widened in shock, "I didn't try-"

"Baby, your my over protective mate-to-be and I was almost kidnapped, raped, and murdered last time I was near these...terrorists...Then we stay here and you insist on me staying with you even in your own home, you honestly expect me to believe you didn't go to your father when I fell asleep watching movies after my family left and request that I was kept out of this mess?"

"...you woke up didn't you.."

"mmmhhhmm there I was sleepy and cold trying to snuggle deeper into your very warm, toned, comfortable, safe..." her sentence trailed off and her eyes drifted over me.

I couldnt help it, I smirked a bit, "Baby your getting off track."

Her eyes snapped back up to me and her face rapidly turned red, "s-sorry! I was sleepy and I tried to snuggle into your chest and...well didn't find you there I opened my eyes and found myself In bed alone. I didn't get back to sleep until I felt you wrap your arms around me again try as I did."

I felt my chest swell with pride and my demon purr at the knowledge that not only did Kagome find me attractive but also found safety in my arms and needed to feel me close to fall asleep. She didn't realize it but thats how she should be, she subconsciously sought out my warmth and protection while she slept just as a female InuYokai mate would. I shifted her in my lap and buried my face in her neck again, breathing in her sent, "God's Kagome I love you so much."

She absentmindedly ran a hand through my hair, "I love you too Inu-baby...but can I please put on some clothes.."

I looked at her towel clad form, the soft white fabric had fallen significantly revealing her the tops of breasts and had opened up on the bottom leaving a clear view of her thighs stopping just at the heavenly junction between her legs, teasing me. I growled in delight at the idea of how close she was to being bare before me, "Id rather you didn't."

she swatted me and stood before making her way to the bathroom to change, I watched her hips sway seductively as she walked and quickly decided it was one of my favorite returned moments later fully clothed -much to my dismay- when she reached me she held up one of my files, "Baby I found this on the bathroom counter by your sink..."

I looked at it and recognized it instantly, oh shit thats where I put it..."Kag's don't freak out okay? I was going to tell you tonight."

I Instantly stood and wrapped my arms around her when I noticed she had started shaking, She buried her face in my chest, "Why...why would those people threaten the orphanage? those kids didn't do anything wrong!"

I sighed, "Just like we where the first school to be integrated they where the first orphanage. they probably want to use those kids to hurt what my dad has tried so long to achieve." I stroked her hair, "I know its hard to hear but me and my dad are moving them, Miss Rose, and even Hobo to a safe place okay?"

Kagome nodded and then gripped my shirt, "Oh my God's Inuyasha!"

I looked at her alarmed, "what?!"

"SHIPPO!"

Her scream made my ears receded to my skull, oh yeah Kagome's especially fond of the kit huh? I growled lowly and gently, remembering that the sound tended to calm her, "Don't worry bitch he's fine."

Kagome looked at me hopefully and in that moment I was suddenly very thankful for my instincts, I never understood why but Kagome had always taken better to demon ways of affection than humans. I had always figured it was because we couldn't fake instinct like humans could fake words of love. I pulled her closer and was about to speak when she beat my to it, "Promise?"

"mmmhmm I promise." My words did nothing to calm her further and I frowned, "Kagome. is something else wrong?"

She pulled me even closer and nuzzled into me, "He had just lost his family! he wasn't used to being without them, then he was sprung into an orphanage full of humans, and now he has to change environments and worry for his life!"

I rubbed her back gently, "I know Kagome but its the best we can do."

She stayed silent for a moment, "No Baby its not..I cant stand the idea of him being so alone he's only six. plus I adore that little boy! I feel like he could be my own child."

I let myself stop and imagine Kagome with children, my pups in her arm with her stomach starting to swell with another on the way before freezing, wait what? "Didn't you tell your mother you didn't want pups right now? the idea that you think of Shippo as your own contradicts that completely."

She looked up at me and blushed, "well uh..its more of the high school pregnancy thing than the idea of children...you know I adore children and take care of them when I can but I am awfully young...so yeah I guess your right.."

I raised a brow, "right about what?"

"It was a stupid idea anyways don't worry about it."

I gave her a pointed look, "Kagome."

She bit her lip nervously, "well I was actually going to ask if maybe we could...be foster parent or adopt Shippo or something I know we're...well I'm young but its not like we couldn't provide from him and Im sure our mothers would be happy to help..." She blushed even harder, "wow it sounds even dumber when I say it out loud...just forget I ever said anything It was a stupid idea.."

I kissed her on the forehead and then swiftly walked out of the room.

Kagome POV:

Oh my Gods I knew I shouldn't have said anything! did I offend him? he will be back right? should I go after him? is he angry? I frowned and then collapsed on my bed trying to Ignore the worry gripping my heart.

I didn't move for a few hours, not until Rin and Sango burst into my room speaking at once, "OH MY GODS KAGOME COME DOWN STAIRS NOW!"

They ran over and dragged me out of bed and down to the main entryway, "Guys what's going on."

Rin squealed, "Oh my gods Kagome Im soooo Jealous of you! that has to be the sweetest thing ever!"

Sango nodded in agreement and grinned, "I was so surprised but its adorable."

I looked at them confused, "What is?"

They just grinned at me again, leaving me totally confused. even more so when I saw Inuyasha's family along with Miroku, Kikyo, and Sota already there. Kikyo glared daggers at me when I walked in practically hissing, I ignored it when I heard Inuyasha's voice, "Kag's come here I got a surprise for you."

Sango and Rin squealed, Inuyasha mother joined them in as I walked to the center of their little crowed and noticed Inuyasha, papers in hand and a small creature huddled on his shoulder. a small orange haired creature. I gasped, "OH MY GOD'S SHIPPO?!"

The young Kit Instantly unfurled itself from its ball and looked at me with wide teary eyes, "K-KAGOME!" the little boy screamed and jumped off Inuyasha's shoulder, naturally I met the boy halfway there and wrapped him into my arms. He gripped his tiny claws into my shoulder as he hugged me, "Is it true Kagome are you really gonna raise me?!"

I froze and looked from the boy to Inuyasha who smiled smugly at me before handing me the papers he had, adoption papers. already signed by Inuyasha as Shippo's new father, all that was left was my signature. I blinked away the tears that had started to form and looked at Inuyasha, "I-is it?"

Inuyasha simply nodded.

I looked down at the papers, "but how? Im only 16, your 17 by human standards..how can we.."

I faintly heard him 'feh.' at me, "wench It helps to be the son of the demon sides ruler. you said so yourself, you worried about him and considered him your own. this is what you wanted right?"

I let the first tear fall and then gently set Shippo on the floor before charging at Inuyasha. I jumped on him, wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck, successfully taking him by surprise before making sure I thoroughly kissed him, not even caring that his family, part of my family, our best friends, and my new son was watching us. When I finally pulled back for air he looked up at me surprised, I couldn't help myself I tightened my grip around him and went in for another kiss, which he happily allowed. The moment I pulled back again I grinned, "Yes Inu-baby! this is more than I could ever ask for...I cant believe you did this!"

He set me down, "feh." I leaned into him and sighed happily, not missing the small content purr he released, "Anything for you wench its no big deal."

I softly kissed his clothed chest a few times happily before turning back to Shippo, "So Shippo...would you mind me raising you?"

Shippo grinned, "are you kidding! I would love it! even if it means sharing you with that Baka!" he pointed at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha growled and bared his teeth at the young boy, I sighed and smacked him on the arm, "Inuyasha! be nice!" I smiled at shippo, "Shippo sweetie you be nice too, Inuyasha did go through trouble to adopt you okay?" Shippo nodded and I winked at him, "Now what do you say we raid the kitchen for some candy to celebrate ne?" Shippo nodded excitedly and I picked him up before turning and giving Inuyasha one last kiss, "love you babe. and thank you." with that I walked out of the room with Shippo in my arms and Rin, Sango, and Izayoi following behind cooing at how cute the young fox demon was.

Inuyasha POV:

Okay should I be happy or pissed? I made Kagome happy and got one hell of a hot kiss from her but also got hit and left here with my brother and dad...at least Kagome's family and miroku had already gone to either follow her or go back to their rooms. I looked up at my dad, "can you explain what the hell just happened?"

Sesshomaru looked at me coldly, "You so called mate left in favor of a demon child thats not even your own." with that he spun on his heels and left the room.

I growled at him and my father spoke up, "She has such wonderful Instincts for a human...most Yokai women get extremely protective of their pups and will chose them over their mate while the pups are still young. she seems to have some of the same qualities"

I felt my eyes widen at that, "whoa wait...so Kagome's gonna ignore me for the brat?"

My father smiled and nodded, "it seems that your Miko will be quite the mother."

I sneered, "what the hell!"

"dont you want her to be a good mother to your pups? Instinctively you should enjoy seeing her with a child in her arms"

"well yeah...Kagome's great with kids...she's going to be amazing at raising Shippo with mom and her mother.. and Im thrilled shes happy. I would adopt a million more brats if she wanted but I still kinda hate the idea of her with the kid over me...we haven't even become official mates yet and it gets harder not to seal the deal...seeing her with a kid makes it harder."

My father nodded, "good luck son." he smiled at me slightly and then walked from the room.

I stood in the entryway dumbfounded, "seriously? well that was helpful." I growled under my breath and walked into the kitchen, everyone but Kikyo and my father was already standing there saying their hellos to Shippo who was still in Kagome's arms. when she saw me she looked up and smiled softly I smiled back, "The runt happy?"

She glared at me playfully, "Shippo's delighted, huh sweetie?"

The young kit grinned up at Kagome, lollipop in his mouth, and nodded. She patted him on the head before handing him to my mother and leading me out of the room, when we where a safe distance away she stopped. I furrowed my brows, "whats up?"

She turned to me and yanked me down by the shirt, sealing her lips over mine. It was rare for Kagome to be so aggressive, even when she took action she always seemed shy, I growled happily and pulled her hair back, taking control of the situation. I pulled back and grinned, "Now now. Ka-go-me what was that for?"

She blushed before kissing me along my jawline and down my neck, "for being you, for doing something so sweet, and a thank you for being mine."

I pulled her up for another kiss sinking my tongue past her lips savoring the sweet flavor of her mouth, only pulling away when I knew she would need air, "your my future mate, baby if you want something you will have it. the urge to spoil you comes with instinct, Ill give you everything you ever dreamed of."

She tucked her head under my chin, "Inuyasha..when will I stop being your future mate and become your actual mate?"

I froze at her question and looked down at her small blushing form, My demon purred happily My sweet little bitch wants me to mate her, such a good girl...she wont have to worry ill have her under me screaming in pleasure soon, very soon. I ran my claws gently over her cheek and neck causing her to shiver, I could hear the lust in my voice when I spoke next, "Now if you want. The only reason I haven't had you yet is because you had told me you wanted to wait."

She blushed even harder, "N-now?"

I grinned mischievously and growled lightly at her, "mmmhhhmmm Im sure you would rather I take you in my bed instead of the hall though huh?" she looked up at me wide eyed and I chuckled before pulling her body flush against mine and running my tongue over the shell of her ear, "so what do you want bitch?"

Her response came out in a breathy sigh, "I-I want to become your mate."

I grinned and flicked my tongue over her hear before pulling away and picking her up, "I wont be gentle, I couldn't even if I wanted to be. you know that right?"

She nodded.

I started walking, quicker than usual but restraining myself from running straight to my room and taking the moment the door shut behind us, giving her a chance to back out. "I wont stop once we have started even if you beg you know?"

She looked at me, her blue eyes clouded with lust as if asking me why she would ever ask me to stop.

I growled in pure desire as we reached the door to my room, "you will come face to face with my demon side."

She bit her lip and rubbed one of my ears between her finger, "Its still you Inuyasha, as long as its you Im willing."

Hearing her desire filled words and feeling her fingers working at my ear pushed me over the edge, I swiftly kicked the door open and darted inside making sure to lock it as it slammed closed.

finally Im getting to the point where the actual plot starts coming together..almost oh and haha theres a lemon next chapter incase anyone actually thought I would leave it at that HA AS IF!
