Daises in my Hair and Butterflies in my Stomach: Ch10
Gifts

Sesshomaru turned over in his bed to switch sides before he happily snuggled back into the feathery softness that was his bed. That was till he felt the edge of the bed give way as some one sat down. He faked sleep till a gentle hand brushed threw his hair and a soft female voice spoke.

"Sesshomaru, wake up we brought back some gifts for you and Inuyasha." Kegome's sweet voice said gently. She had become a caring sister to him and he was happy that she had become his friend just as Sango and Miroku had. He opened his eyes and looked up at her.

"Where's Inuyasha?" he asked.

"I've weaseled him into helping Oji Talka and the rest in unloading Kirara's cart." Sesshomaru looked up at her confused.

"Why would she have a cart?" he asked as he sleepily sat up.

"We went back to my time and got you some necessities for the baby and you. We even got Oba and Oji and their children some nifty little pieces to help out." she gave him her patented warm smile and pulled him into a warm hug.

"I'm so happy for you two." She whispered. She had had a lot of time to think everything over when they had gone shopping, and she had come to the conclusion that as long as the both of them are happy together and their children are as happy as their parents that he could be just as glad. Sesshomaru returned the hug happily.

"Come on, you'll love all we got for you guys."

"Kagome, thank you." She knew he was not just thanking her for the things that she had brought but for being a friend to his brother and to him. She smiled softly and helped him stand. "No problem. Let go before Inuyasha starts complaining."

Sesshomaru tossed and turned in his sleep as he tried to get settled. His abdomen hurt and he whimpered but soon it passed as he sighed. It had done that two times now and Inuyasha was becoming worried as he watched over Sesshomaru. He had to admit Sesshomaru had been doing very well considering how often the pup kept him awake at night. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Sesshomaru and pulled him close. The other Inu snuggled to his chest and sighed in perfect content.

Inuyasha cracked a smile. It was hard not too. Sesshomaru looked like an angle when he slept. Inuyashas' look of endearment turned to one of worry as Sesshomarus' face became pained and his brows scrunched together. Inuyasha grabbed his shoulder and shook him gently.

"Sesshomaru, come on lovely wake up." He whispered gently. Sesshomaru opened his eyes and looked at his lover.

"Are you alright, you have been whimpering and looking like your in pain for the past few hours." Inuyasha asked concerned for him and the pup. Sesshomaru nodded sleepily.

"I'm fine, but, could you please get me some water?" Sesshomaru asked. Inuyasha only nodded before he got up and went to the kitchen area after finding the water pitcher empty. He stopped by the room Kagome had been given and woke her up.

"Mmmm, what is it Inuyasha? Is Sesshomaru alright?" she asked sleepily as she rubbed a eye.

"I'm not sure, he asked me to go get some more water, could you go watch him?" she nodded. She found it so cute at how Inuyasha was so protective over Sesshomaru right now. Especially considering that Sesshomaru was do at any time now.

Kagome knocked on the door before she entered and moved to sit next to Sesshomaru on the bed. He turned over and regarded her sleepily. He moved so he could curl around her. She remembered the day that he had confided in her that he didn't like being left alone, and he couldn't blame him. It didn't matter what it was but he had grown to appreciate any safe contact. A warm hug, a hand on his shoulder, some one playing with his hair, it didn't matter.

She was brought from her thoughts when Sesshomaru gave a sharp gasp and clutched her tightly. She felt something wet warm her back. She turned to see a very large wet spot forming threw the blankets. Sesshomaru began to whimper till he barked then all the sudden it was over and Sesshomaru was panting and whimpering. She scooped him up.

"Shhh, it's ok." She cooed but she new it wasn't, Sesshomaru's water had just broke, he was in labor, and she knew that here shortly he would be wanting his Oba and Inuyasha. That was till Sesshomaru started to growl. She looked behind her just in time to see the wall explode and Naraku standing there, tentacles wiggling.

"You have something of mine and it looks like it is time I collect what's mine" The only thing Kagome could do was hold tightly to Sesshomaru as he began to hole in pain as another contraction hit and he gripped on to her as one of Narakus' tentacles wrapped around them and took them away.

It was just as they were pulled out threw the hole in the wall when Inuyasha walked in. He dropped the jug and ran to grab them but it was too late. He howled wildly as he watched Naraku take away his family. The others ran in to see the damage. Horror striking them still.

"Get dressed, we have a demon to hunt." Inuyasha said in a too calm voice, his eye's turning red.
