Authors note!

Okay, I think this is going to be my last chapter. So sad I know. I just don't want to make it continue for ever. I might make a sequel to it though. Any way, I don't have really have a plan for this chapter, so I am just going to wing it. I have decided not to bring Naraku or any others into this story, sorry if that's what you were hoping for! Review and tell me how I did.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kagome sat staring listlessly into nothingness. Her hair swayed gently in the breeze. Sakura petals swirled around overhead, the long grass swishing softly with them. A tear shattered the peaceful mood as Kagome burst into tears.

She had been crying a lot lately. A permanent depressing cloud had settled itself over her head. She slept either too much or too little, she either ate too much or nothing at all. When she did eat, she ended up throwing it up. She felt horrible.

She was pregnant.

She felt as if she was breaking from the inside. When she had first found out, she had panicked. Then she was ashamed. She couldn't bring herself to tell inuyasha or Sango. She spent most of her time alone now. She was afraid inuyasha would smell a change in her.

"I don't want to be like this!" she moaned, "I'm not ready for a child!"

Her muffled cries increased suddenly he felt a reassuring hand on her shoulder. She turned. Miroku stood there smiling.

"Cheer up Lady Kagome. It is indeed a fine day."

He plopped down beside Kagome and put a reassuring arm around her.

"Don't worry Kagome; I know what you are going through. I am here for you whenever you need to talk, I will help you through this. "

Kagome's eyes widened through her tears.

"H-how do you know?"

"My mother," his voice was bitter, and his smile faltered slightly, "My mother went through the same thing. All I could do was stand by and watch. I was helpless."

Kagome pressed herself into Miroku and began to sob.

"Oh Miroku, I don't even know who the father is! I-I don't want a child like this!"

"Hush Kagome, for I know something you do not," Kagome pulled her head from his shoulder and stared at him with anxious eyes. "Inuyasha loves you and no matter what the child looks like or who the father is, he will love it as much as he loves you. Now dry your tears and be happy."

Kagome, for the first time in a month, smiled. She hugged Miroku and he surprisingly did nothing lecherous. He simply smiled back.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inuyasha glared bitterly at the scene playing out before him. He watched as Kagome sobbed into Miroku's arms. He growled and almost threw himself at Miroku when Kagome smiled and hugged him. He didn't understand why Kagome could never talk to him, but could always seem to confide in someone else.

He turned slowly and walked away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kagome walked back to camp, being led by the hand by Miroku. She felt secure again. But her stomach fluttered at the thought of announcing her news. Miroku turned to face her. He gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.

"Don't worry about it, you'll be fine."

She just nodded as the entered the village. Inuyasha Shippo and Sango ran to meet them.

"Come on guys, we have to get a move on. I just got a really good lead on a huge shikon shard!" Sango announced.

Everyone turned to go nut Miroku yanked their attention back.

"Please everyone listen, Kagome has an announcement."

All eyes turned to her, she shifted uncomfortably. Miroku gave her hand another squeeze as if to say 'you can do it.'

She nodded, took a breath and mumbled in a soft tone,

"I'm pregnant."

It took a moment to register. Inuyasha stood with a horrified look on his face. Sango's face was impassive, and Shippo, he began to cry.

"But I thought you were my momma!"

She gathered Shippo in her arms and calmed him with soothing whispers. Inuyasha turned and fled. She looked after him wearily, she new it would take time to deal with the information she had just handed him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inuyasha sat high up in a tree, bathing in self pity. He was ashamed. He had claimed Kagome for his own and just look what had happened. Miroku appeared suddenly before him.

"Inuyasha come down here, we need to talk!"

Inuyasha didn't argue just jumped down and glared at Miroku.

"What?" he asked icily.

Miroku took a breath, "This might come as a shock inuyasha, but the child is yours."

Inuyasha fell over, anime style. (Is there any other way to fall over in an anime other then anime style? Think about it!) He quickly regained his composure.

"WHAT?!"

"Inuyasha, I saw the bite marks on Kagome, you marked her as your own didn't you?"

Inuyasha nodded ashamed. "What does that have to do with anything?"

"It has to do with everything. Kagome was pregnant with another mans child yes, but when you claimed her and she became yours, the child growing within her became yours also. This child will have demon blood running through its veins same as you."

Inuyasha just stood bewildered for a moment, and then a smile spread across his face. He burst out laughing.

"What's so funny?" Miroku asked.

"HA! I got someone to bear my child before you! HA! That's a good one you lecher!"

An evil grin slid onto Miroku's face, he shook his head,

"1.) You did not ask Kagome to bear your child, 2.) Kagome does not know she is bearing your child, and 3.) I wasn't supposed to tell, but Sango is currently bearing my child! In your face inuyasha!"

Inuyasha continued to laugh but stopped when Miroku pointed out that Kagome didn't know that she was bearing his child. Miroku must have realized this.

"Don't worry, I'll tell her. I'll explain all the details and answer her questions."

Inuyasha let out a sigh of relief. Miroku turned and headed back to camp. He whistled to himself all the way.

Authors note!!!!!!

Okay, so maybe this wasn't my last chapter. So what? Do you really care? Of course not. Since this is not a gruesome or sad or whatever chapter I won't put one of my normal songs up. I'll put a relatively happier one up okay?
