Ok, for you guys who don't like mushy stuff. you might wanna skip this chappie!

Chapter 9:

Kagome bumped into Inuyasha on her way back to her room.

"So, Angel, exactly what kind of relationship do you have with Sesshoumaru?" he asked suspiciously. (Does Inuyasha even know what suspicious means?)

"Um, well." Kagome trailed off not really sure what to say.

"She is my mate," came a cold voice behind them. They looked to see Sesshoumaru. "If you have a problem with that, half breed, I suggest you get out of my lands," he added tugging Kagome toward his bedchambers.

(I don't usually write fluff. so don't yell at me if its bad!)

When they were in Sesshoumaru's room and out of Inuyasha's hearing range she glared at him and asked, "Why did you tell him I was your mate?" Kagome asked.

"I. I. I don't know!" he exclaimed frustrated that he couldn't control his big mouth. Then a thought struck him. "Maybe I said it because I wished it were true?" he said still not really sure.

(Ok, so I'm not the most romantic person on earth.)

Kagome sat down right where she stood thinking about the whole thing.

She looks really cute sitting there like that. Why DID I tell Inuyasha we were mates? It doesn't make sense. Wait. Does anything make sense anymore? Why am I being so nice to my idiot of a brother and his friends? Why am I helping her?

(This is hard.)

Sesshoumaru was snapped out of his thoughts when he smelled salt mixed with Kagome's wonderful scent. Sesshoumaru stepped forward and tilted Kagome's head up with his hand. "Why are you crying?" he asked.

(Now I gotta come up with a reason for her to cry. think magic think!)

"I. I'm not sure anymore," Kagome sobbed. Sesshoumaru pulled her into his lap and hugged her making soothing sounds as his mother used to do when he was small.

(Easy way out! ^.^)

Kagome soon calmed herself and realized where she was.

Sesshoumaru chuckled at the violently blushing girl. What would happen if I just tightened my grip a bit.

Sesshoumaru pulled Kagome closer and tightened his grip, making the girl gasp in surprise. "Sesshoumaru, why do you hold me like this?" Kagome asked.

"Because, I love you, silly girl," Sesshoumaru said not really thinking about it. He then realized what he had just said. He was surprised to find Kagome hugging him back.

"Love you too Sess-chan," Kagome said looking up into his golden eyes. Sesshoumaru couldn't stop himself. Every fiber of his being was telling him to make her his mate, to love her, be gentle with her, make sure she was happy so that she never cried again.

Sesshoumaru kissed his Kagome passionately then lifted her to the bed..

NEXT MORNING

Kagome awoke in her mate's arms.

"Kagome, how do you feel about having 3 children?" he asked.

Blushes Did I write that? Well catch'ya next time I update! Tomorrow morning probably.
