A/N: ::A young woman with curly brown hair and brown eyes walks out of a
door, carrying a box. On the box, in big, black, bold letters, it says
"Soap". She sets the box down and stands on top of it. She clears her
throat and yells:: Greeting all of the people in Internet land! I am
officially ungrounded! So in other words, ::Eminem's "Back Again" plays::
I'M BACK! I will be back to do my almost daily updates again and for all
of those people who stuck with me throughout this thing.....THANK YOU! I
have had a hard week. My boyfriend of a year and 15 days broke up with
me...::Cri:: But I have decided that all men suck monkee balls, and that
hey, I'm better off without them. (No offence to the guys reading this, of
course) Well, without any farther ado, on with the
fic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ::She bows and steps off her soapbox. Leaving
through the same door she walk in from::
The Other Side of the Mirror
Chapter 19: Fear Not
(Lets do a quick recap, since I haven't updated in a while.)
She laughed, oh; it made him feel so good when she laughed! "No! *He's* always hungry!" She corrected, placing a hand on her stomach.
Inu-Yasha's smile widened, he leaned his head to her stomach and swiveled his ear so that it pressed onto her skin. "He wants to know what you want to eat. He says that he doesn't care what it is, he just wants food."
She giggled, "Really?" She reached over and started rubbing his ear.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
He couldn't help his reaction, her touch sent a shiver through his entire body and a purr-like growl escaped his lips. (Like-like because I read all these fics that say he purrs, but dude! Inu-Yasha is NOT a cat!) He tried to hold the sound back as hard as he could, but his ears were just too damn sensitive! Her continual fondling wasn't helping the situation either! "Kagome," he growled softly, keeping his eyes closed. She didn't pay attention. "Kagome!"
She stopped, "I thought you liked that. Don't you?"
He pushed his head against her hand, "More then you know, but if you don't stop, I might not let you eat." Kagome's hand quickly moved away, and for an instant the scent of adrenalin was added to her smell. He opened his eyes; she was staring at him wide-eyed.
"W-what do you mean?"
He had to think fast, he hadn't meant for that to slip out. "Nothing...I...uh...lets go get something to eat!" He sprang to his feet and reached down to pick her up.
"Aren't I getting a little heavy?" She asked with a smile, the tense moment already forgotten.
"Heavy? You're light as a feather!" He scooped her up and cradled her in his arms. "I bet Kaede's cooking something delicious!" He could already smell the wonderful aroma.
"Mmm, what does it smell like?"
"Bliss!" He started to run to the village. Kagome snuggled against him. *This* was the girl he remembered. She was back. It surprised him how easily she trusted him, but he knew that it was mostly the baby. He was afraid of how she would act after the child was born. He was keeping her emotions steady. Would she go back to being afraid? Would she want the brother of the man who had hurt her and created the child around?
He sighed, he had a lot to think about.
Kagome's hands fisted in his shirt. "Inu-Yasha!" She gasped, pressing herself against the hanyou.
He stopped in his tracks, "Kagome?! What's wrong?!"
"Inu-Yasha!" Tears started to form in her squeezed eyes, "I-why-?" Her entire body tensed in his arms. "It...it hurts. Its not supposed to hurt anymore!" Sobs started to shake through her small form, "Help me," she begged weakly.
Inu-Yasha felt helpless, he always did when Kagome was hurt or in pain. He tried to send soothing bursts of power to the child, only to have them bounce back. Why wasn't it working?! She was supposed to be feeling better!
He started running again. The same way he had the night he found her. He ran into the old miko's hut and screamed her name.
A/N: Okay, what did you think? Don't worry, I'm going to put another chapter up today! Review please!
