Chapter 48

Sesshomaru was watching both Rin and Shippo as Sarah slept, she had been sleeping for the past two hours and hasn't woken up once like she used to. He smiled and watched as Rin and Shippo played tag inside and then started tagging the other people in the house and they joined in chasing the two who were laughing.

"What will happen if Sarah doesn't wake up? I mean the wedding is only a few weeks, and if she's asleep the whole time nothing will get done." Sarah's grandma said.

"She will wake up; she did this a few months ago when she turned into a pure angel." Sesshomaru said drinking his tea.

"So do you know when she will wake up then?" Amaya asked interested now.

"I will wake up when I have my energy back, so please stop talking about me in first person…" Sarah said yawning. The three older women laughed at her as Sesshomaru walked over and lead her to sit between her grandmother and mother, she smiled at him and kissed him lightly they let her mom and grandma hug her.

"So Sarah tell us, what date have you planned for the wedding? I need to know so I can take some time off from work." Her grandma said.

"What do you work for?" Sarah asked.

"I work in my own craft store." Her grandma said.

"Wow I might have to come by and get some things, I love making crafts." Sarah said.

"What do you usually make?" Izayoi asked now interested.

"Well I used to design my clothing, but never could make the clothes right. I can also mend clothing; I fixed up a pair of really old jeans of mine and turned into jeans with leopard patches. I can somewhat loom knit, I am still on making hats and gloves, I made a few scarf's too." Sarah told them thanking one of the maids for bringing her some tea.

"Wow that's a lot, but you said clothing, what kind?" Izayoi asked.

"Well, I make different kinds, some are dresses, I know quite a few of them will be wedding dresses. Some are pant shirt sets, a few skirts. That's about all I do really." Sarah replied to her.

"Why didn't you make your wedding dress this time instead of buying one?" Amaya asked.

"Because dresses take forever for me to do, plus I don't have any material for me to use. Each of my dresses comes with very specific fabric and patterns." Sarah said sighing.

"Well how about before you leave for your honeymoon; make a special dress for the trip and something to make Sesshomaru look at you in a very special way." Amaya said, Sarah blushed immediately blushed deeply from the comment and glanced towards Sesshomaru and saw him blushing lightly.

"Mom that's gross to say with kids running around! What if they heard you then asked what you were meaning?" Sarah asked.

"Then I would shoot around the bush and tell a little lie to them." Amaya said.

"Sarah nee-chan? Will you play with us? The others are tired from trying to catch us." Rin asked. Sarah looked past Rin and Shippo and saw that the others were panting hard; Sarah smiled and nodded to them.

"You know, when I was with my other family, none of the kids could run from me in tag, I always caught them." Sarah giggled; the two squealed then ran away.

"Sesshomaru come on, let's have some fun." Sarah asked then ran off to get the two. The older women awed at her asking him to join her then started giggling and saying things about children in the future making Sesshomaru blush; but he got up anyways and bowed to the women then ran after Sarah who was running after the two up the stairs laughing, he smiled at her for having the fun she was even after using a lot of energy to kill Naraku. He followed her being faster than her he quickly caught up to her picking her up and helped her go after the two running away from her giggling.

"Sarah nee-chan can't catch us, we always know how to get away from adults!" Rin said to Sarah.

"You're going to eat those words Rin-chan! Sessho-kun run faster!" Sarah said laughing. He smiled knowing she was having fun and did start running faster and almost got the two when they switched directions and Sesshomaru saw that they did and tried stopping but ended up tripping making him and Sarah fall. He didn't see where she fell but heard her clearly swear and groan from the fall, he looked back to see the two kids poking their heads out from a door that was opened by a maid.

"You two are going to be getting it big time." He growled out, the two gasped and ran down the stairs away from them. He looked over to Sarah and saw her rubbing her head and arm groaning, he moved over to her and looked over her head seeing it was only a bump.

"Are you ok my tenshi?" He asked her.

"Yeah I'm fine, the floor isn't as soft as I hoped it would be." Sarah said smiling thru the pain. He looked at her knowing that she was lying about it but he couldn't confront her about it, he took her hand and held it out to look at her arm and saw a small bruise forming. He held back a sigh from her and then helped her up and held her to his side, she looked up at him wondering why he was silent now but couldn't ask him when she saw him frowning.

"Sessho-kun don't be mad at the two, they are only playing and they decided to trick us." Sarah told him touching his face.

"Then they should be more careful how they play. You have a head bump on your head now and it is slowly growing." Sesshomaru told her almost glaring at her.

"No glaring mister or I will say you are not allowed to see me for the next 3 weeks until our wedding." Sarah said. He looked at her surprised at her for even trying that, she only nodded to him and headed downstairs without him smiling behind his back knowing she got to him about it. She looked at the grandfather clock and saw it was getting late and should put Shippo and Rin to bed then head to bed herself since she had some things to do for the wedding.

"Shippo, Rin its bed time." Sarah called out, everyone in the house heard the double groan from the two and everyone laughed at them.

"Do we have to Sarah nee-chan?" Rin asked.

"Yes you do, you have a whole day of play tomorrow and a dinner I will be making." Sarah said taking their hands.

"What will you make?" Shippo asked.

"One of my specialties, spaghetti with meatballs in my special marinara and garlic bread." Sarah said smiling.

"Is what you made at your other home Sarah nee-chan?" Rin asked again.

"Yes, when I made it everyone was happy, though half the family wasn't always there and I had to always put the leftovers in the fridge where no one would eat it but me." Sarah said taking The two to their rooms.

"Well I'm sure that with everyone plus Inuyasha oni-chan eating almost half of it there won't be any leftovers." Shippo said. Sarah laughed at him and lead him to his room to change as she took Rin to a separate room, she helped Rin change into her night clothes then into bed. She turned on the nightlight for Rin so she can get to the bathroom without getting hurt. Sarah headed over to Shippo's room and found him having trouble with getting his shirt on, She smiled at him and helped him out.

"Thank you Sarah nee-chan." He said. She only smiled at him and helped him into bed for the night, she told him a small story after he asked her. Before she could finish her story he was falling asleep, she pulled his covers up and heard him say momma to her. She only looked at him and smiled lightly at him and moved her hands over his hair, she got up and turned another nightlight only for him then left the room, shouting that she was heading to bed Sarah went to her room and made sure no one was behind her. She went to her computer turning it on and waited for the internet to pop up for her as she changed into some night clothes, she looked over at her computer and saw her search engine was up, she typed in what she wanted and waited for it to print what she needed then shut down her computer for the night and shut her light off walking blindly to her bed. She felt like she had carried several pounds of bricks up a hill, flopping onto her bed she didn't notice Sesshomaru walking in as she started falling asleep, he watched her until she was fully asleep then laid with her for the night to make sure her head bump didn't get any worse.
