Chapter Twenty-Five

"Kaguya," said a man.

"Yes, sir," said the woman locking the door to his office and walking over to her boss.

"Has my future wife Kikyo been unfaithful to me," said the man.

"If she wasn't?"

"Then I would drop her like yesterdays news."

"And what if she was being faithful?"

"Well then I will be marring her and we will still be having these private meeting. Even if she was caught cheating these private meetings will still continue as always. So has she been faithful bitch to me," he said patting his leg for her to sit.

"Yes she has sir," said Kaguya. "She is planning to meet up with her two girls, Yume and Kagura, I think they were called. Every now and then she will spend your money and flirt with men around her. She hasn't yet had any sex with any of them. And if you don't mind sir, just on the safe side maybe you should have her sign an agreement. That way if she ever thinks of divorcing or cheating on you, she will get nothing."

"You my lovely have a wonderful mind." She smiled. "Now I think we should get on to better business." He then proceeds to take of her shirt to admire her breast better.

"Hello Mrs. Moni what brings you by?" ask Sango opening the door for her.

"Well I came here to check up on you and my son. So how are things going?" said Maya coming into the house.

"We're doing well. Would you like anything?"

"Do you have any tea?"

"Yes, I've just made some. It should be ready soon," said Sango heading to the kitchen with Maya.

"I also came to congratulate you and my son's engagement, and to thank you for inviting me to the baby-shower coming up in a week."

"No problem. Besides you're my future son's grandma. Why should you not get to know him? I know we were at odds for a while in the beginning, but it's turned out for the better in the end." Sango then sat down at the kitchen table. "Sure it took a while for the truth of it all to be out."

"That's how I see it too. I didn't know what to do when Yume all of a sudden showed up at my door that day. We were told thing and we decide to confront our son here. Once we found things out, we knew Yume had lied to us. We then didn't know what to believe until after returning home that day. She had played us. After that day we both knew we couldn't force our son to marry her or put him in an arrange marriage like me and my husband.

"I guess we just wanted what was best for him and in the process we couldn't realize it would hurt him and you. We also should have realized that some things that worked for us might not work for him. Things change to work in the future," said Maya.

"Don't blame yourself for something that anyone could have done in yours or Mr. Moni's foot steps. I understand what you both done, even my parents wanted too at one time wanted things done for the good for me and my brother before they passed on," said Sango almost getting up to get the tea.

"Here let me get it. You should be relaxing since the baby is so close to the do date."

"Thanks," said Sango. "Things have been hard to get done, but we manage. Miroku's not very good with the chores, but he does his best along with my brother. I know that it will get a little harder when this little one comes, but we'll manage. You never know some of the thing will become easy, while others hard. Plus we have the help of some of our friends and family." As she said that, she started to rub her belly.

"That's right and you should know that if you or my son or even your brother need help me and Miroku Sr. will be their for you all," said Maya setting two cups of tea on the table. "So where is my son and you brother at anyway? He shouldn't have left you here by yourself."

"He and Kohaku had to go shopping for clothing. Kohaku has out grown most of his clothing and Miroku offered to take him. I thought it better that he went than me because Kohaku is at that stage where he doesn't want me to pick out his clothing."

"I know what you are talking about. Miroku too got to an age, where I had to force his father to take him. I swear it took that man hours to agree to go. That wasn't the half of it. I later had him take our son out again because it had turned out that my husband had just gave some cash to my son to by the clothing. The clothing my son was to get turned out to be candy, games and magazines.

"I even asked my husband where he was during this whole time. He replied that he had been in the food court reading a book and having something to eat. I was so mad at my husband for weeks and forced him to sleep on the couch for a week. After I yelled at him about it, lets just say that he didn't slack off ever again. Then I had a talk with my son about him taking advantage of his father. Miroku of course learned his lesson."

"Boy now I hope Kohaku doesn't do that," said Sango trying not to break out laughing but it was no use. Maya too started laughing.

"You do know Kohaku, Sango won't like it if we don't return with new clothing for you," said Miroku playing a race car game with Kohaku. "How about after we finish this game we go and pick you up a couple pants, shirts, and etc. Then we come back here or go to the food court. That way Sango won't scream at us for not doing anything."

"Okay."

"So do you know what you want?"

"Yup, something Sango wouldn't consider cute. Some things she gets me are usually something dorky. I want something cool to wear. I don't want anything with teddy bears on it. Does that help much," said Kohaku, florin the car to the finish line.

"Yes. I got some ideas," said Miroku. Then he made his car race to the finish line, but it was no use, Kohaku had just won. "Remind me to stop at the game shop to pick up a similar version of this game and maybe a few other games." They then got up and left.

As they look at several shops, Miroku noticed someone or more prissily Yume. She wasn't alone, but with her two friends Kagura and Kikyo. He was hoping to god she didn't notice him as he quickly looked to Kohaku, who seemed to notice what was going on. They then both quickly rushed into the nearest store to hide.

It turned out they had rushed into a candle shop. While Miroku got Kohaku to pick something out for Sango, he went to the front of the store to look out the store window to check if the coast was clear. He notice that the three women were heading for an exit. He was thankful he wasn't noticed. So Kohaku came back with a couple of candles. Before leaving Miroku went and paid for them.

"Are you going to tell Sango?" asked Kohaku.

"No it really isn't important. She doesn't need to know because nothing happened. If something did, I would tell her. Plus with her mood swings, she might hit me for not doing anything and not facing that woman," said Miroku running a hand through his hair. "Come on lets get you your cloths and some for me too."

"Then we can eat and go back to the arcade," said Kohaku.

"Yup, but also remind me to pick up some games."

"Oh god, remind me to never drink again," moaned out a hangover Ayame in her bed. She had awoken to the sun pouring into her room. She couldn't exactly remember what had happened the night before. All she could remember was her and Inu going clubbing and having many drinks. What she didn't remember was how she got home.

"Dido for me," said Inuyasha from her right side. He moved a little and then pulled her to his body, his nude body.

"What happen to our clothing," she asked becoming fully awake.

"I don't know and don't care. Personally I like seeing you this way. Besides its not like we haven't seen each other like this," he said nuzzling her neck.

"Inu quit it….mmm," but she ended in a moan. With his treatment on her, it was causing her to become aroused. It in turn caused him to become more aroused than he started.

As they continued their activities from last night they weren't going to worry about what had gone on the night before or what it might hold for the future.

She woke up to a peaceful morning. The first thing she did was turn to her mate, who continued to sleep on. She was lucky to have him. He was her shinning light. As she continued on, she didn't notice he had woken up and was watching her. To him she was a goddess of pure beauty that was all his and no one would take her away.

"Come," he said raising from the bed and stick out his hand. When she felt him move, she came out of her thoughts and looked at him. She then took his hand. He brought her up from the bed and then led her to the balcony doors. "Close your eyes," he whispered into her ear. She followed his wishes. Then she heard the doors to the balcony open and then she was pulled out onto the balcony. Then once more he whispered into her ear. "Now open them."

What met her was a magnificent site. There below the cliffs and beyond the beach was the big, blue ocean. To the side of them was the most beautiful lushes trees and flowers. There were no words to really describe the surrounding area around them. Even the sounds enhance the beauty. The birds were singing, the wind blowing in the trees and the ocean crashing into the rocks in the distance.

They didn't even notice the storm that was starting to come in. It was too beautiful, even with the clouds forming. "It lovely here," said Kagome. He held her closer to himself. She knew in some way he agreed. "Can we go walk out along the shore, later?"

"Yes." Then all was quiet between them for a little bit longer. "Do you want to eat here or go out?"

"Are you cooking?" she asked.

He stared at her for as second and then said, "Fine, but your going to help."

"You know I won't leave you to do it all alone."

Then they went back inside and got dressed. Once done, they went downstairs and made something to eat. As they ate it began to pour outside. After they finished dinner, they went to clean the dishes. That's when Kagome heard a noise. It didn't sound like the rain hitting the ground, it sound like a cat meowing. She quickly stopped what she was doing and went out into the pouring rain.

Sesshomaru at first didn't even notice his mate had taken off until he heard the back door open. He then too heard the meowing. He now knew why his mate left in a hurry. A minute or two had pasted before she returned with the cat. No kitten. As he looked closer at it, he notice the animal hadn't been feed in some time.

"Why would someone leave you in a box in the middle of nowhere?" she spoke to it. She then grabbed a towel near by and proceeds to dry the kitten off. Then once she was done, she spoke to it again. "You must be hungry? Maybe Maru will let you have some of the leftover chicken?"

"No, I will most defiantly not give the cat any and by morning it will be taken to the nearest Animal Shelter."

"But Sesshomaru, she's hungry. We don't know how long she hasn't eaten. We have more than enough to feed her. And why should she be taken to an animal shelter, when she been abanded. Plus if she goes to a shelter, what's the chances she will get adopted by someone, who wants her." said Kagome. "So can we please keep her." Then Kagome gave him one of her famous pouts.

Sesshomaru knew it was no use in telling her no. He looked at her and then sighed. When she heard him do that, she knew she had gotten her way. She then looked down at the kitten and smiled. "So what do we call you?" she said looking at the kitten.

The kitten was almost completely white except for several spots. One spot was dark brown making her right eye look like it had a tear drop in it. A bigger spot was black and was on her ear. The kitten also had bright blue eyes. "How about Tear Drop," said Kagome. The kitten just gave her a look that told her no.

"Why don't you just call it Buttons," said Sesshomaru and that got the kitten to start meowing her approval of the name.

"Well we can tell she like you," said Kagome.
