Brewing baby
A/N: Hey! Thanks all for reading my story...I didn't think it would do so successfully! Well, after this chapter, I'm going to have I think about two more chapters, and than I'm done. I may be a little slower because after this story, I have also come up with another story, about Miroku and Sango...so...wait for that to come out soon!

Three months Later
InuYasha sat with Kagome and their soon to-be child. They were sitting on the porch of Kagome's home.
"InuYasha, feel, the baby's kicking!" she announced happily. InuYasha placed his hand on her stomach. She had got a dress that made her look nice, yet, that fit her and the baby. InuYasha stayed in his normal clothes, although, he didn't have his Tetsusaiga. Having a child was more important, and he didn't need his trusty sword with him in this era. He did, however, had to get dressed in a different outfit, because sometimes they would go out. But, he was comfortable with it. As long as he was with his beautiful Kagome, he was willing to do anything.
"Kagome, have you seen one of...what you call...doctors?" He asked her. His hand was still placed on her stomach, but, he looked at her. She too, looked at him.
"Yes, but, I haven't seen them to figure out whether it's a boy or girl. InuYasha, I'm afraid that they would figure out that I'm carrying a quarter demon baby...it's just...not natural." She stated. He wrapped his arms around her.
"Kagome, don't worry. If anything happens, we can go to Kaede." He told her. She looked at him.
"Yes, but, in your era, they don't have the technology that I have." She stated.
"Technology, mecnology." He told her, "Who cares...you don't need it. Just go with the flow. Kagome, in our world, and you know this, which child birth is something that just happens. There's nothing bad about the way the kids our born. Sure, sometimes, if it turns out wrong anything can happen, but, this shouldn't be bad. I'm not an expert...but, I have seen other women give birth. I have a secret to tell." He told her. To her, this was sort of nerve wrecking, nothing he said, but, the way he was sympathetic and how he knew all these things.
"Yes?" She answered him.
"Kagome, you are the first person I've ever told this...but, I have always dreamed of having children. When my mother and father died, I had no one else, no one to trust, and no one to be with. Everyone hated me...I had no friends...except for Kikyou, of which even I hated her for a period of time. Kagome, I know you don't want to hear this, but, really, if Naraku hadn't put Kikyou and me against each other...you might not be here. You might think that you're not the recarnation of her, but, you have the same face as her, and the same powers. Kagome, after these four years, you've grown so strong...and I'm proud of you." InuYasha said. He was so passionate about what he said; it made Kagome cry for him.
"InuYasha, you've never actually expressed yourself like that to me! I didn't even expect you to ever tell me anything about what you felt after your parents died." Kagome said, slightly calmed. InuYasha's arms were still around her body, and she had rested her head on his shoulder.
"I felt, that, well since I love you so, that I should tell you." He told her confidently. He was happy not to hear the word "Sit" within three months of time. But, he had forgotten about the spell necklace. The beautiful wind wrapped around them as InuYasha and Kagome's hair flew.
"Could we go for a walk? I feel that it should be good for the baby" She asked InuYasha. He nodded to her. He helped her stand up. Although she was only three months pregnancy, she still had quite a stomach. They walked a few steps when InuYasha stopped for a moment.
"Oh...I'll be right back." He said to her. He ran into her house very quickly, and got a scarf for her. It was September, and getting chillier. She didn't want to have to take care of the baby through the harsh winters, but, she didn't mind. As long as InuYasha was there to take care of her, and keep her warm. She stood there for a moment as InuYasha came behind her, placing a scarf around her.
"Thank you!" She said happily. He had never been so generous in his whole life. To InuYasha, life in this life was much different from his time. He turned human one night in August, of which, he enjoyed with Kagome, Sota and her mother out, when it was the Awaodori festival in August. It was very beautiful, the many different kimonos' and color, and not to mention all the dancing. InuYasha and the fellow members of the family enjoyed it very much. InuYasha had never enjoyed being human in his life. He realized that being human was the greatest thing. He had decided a long time ago that he didn't want to be full demon, and. But, being human in his world, he wouldn't be able to explain it. He had realized the joy and happiness of being around other people like Kagome. (A/N: Yes...this is a real Japanese festival...I even looked it up.)
"Anything, Kagome, name it." He said. They walked along a beautiful park, where it had many trees with many different color leaves. She felt the baby kicking again.
"InuYasha, I think this baby will turn out to be a fighter, just like you." She laughed and looked happily at InuYasha. He took her hand, as they walked a bit more of a distance before turning back.
"I guess so." He finally replied to her. They walked back to the Higurashi shrine, where they saw Sota and Kagome's mom outside. Her mother was sweeping the steps as Sota was running about bouncing the soccer ball on his head. Kagome sat down on the steps, and InuYasha ran off to chase Sota. He was testing out Sota's running skills as a soccer player.
Kagome's mom sat down next to her. "He'll be a great father." She said, not looking at her, but watched InuYasha and Sota. They came rushing towards Kagome.
"Kagome, if it's alright with you, can I show Sota the Tetsusaiga in its true form? We'll stay on the property, and I won't use any of the real power because it's dangerous." He asked her as if he was a child.
"Mama?" Kagome looked to her mom.
"Sure...be very careful InuYasha!" Her mom shouted as they ran into the home. They than turned around to see InuYasha using the Tetsusaiga...Sota off to the side. He had seen it in action before, but, never actually saw it when he wasn't scared.
"Mama, I'm very happy. I have to tell you something." Kagome said. Her mom looked at her. "I'm going to raise the child in InuYasha's time. The child would feel more or less comfortable being with other people like him. I've personally never seen a quarter demon before, but, I'm sure he or she'd be welcome with the humans. InuYasha feels that his home is where he's most welcome. But, I feel more comfortable and safer living here until I give child birth. Sure, there would be false alarms and things like that, but, to save a lot of people for going wild at me about having a quarter demon children. Come to think of it...it may not even be quarter demon. It could be something else! Like, all human." She said, and than sighed. "How disappointed InuYasha would be." She said, as she turned to see InuYasha and Sota. Her mom held onto her hand, and placed her free hand to touch her chin, and Kagome turned her neck to face her.
"Kagome. Understand that whatever you do, do it for you. Some things you can't predict or prevent from happening. Whether it's full demon or human...you have to realize that, whatever happens...happens for a reason." She told Kagome, and than hugged her. When she released her, her mom stood up and picked up her broomstick, and continued to sweep the floor. Another swift breeze of wind went by, and she shivered for a moment. She tried her best to stand up, but failed at the attempt. InuYasha saw her struggle, and quickly sheathed his sword, and rushed to help her up. Sota didn't mind that his sister was pregnant. He was actually pretty amused that he would have a quarter demon as a nephew. Sota ran off and found something else to do. Kagome and InuYasha went inside. They headed into the kitchen, and Kagome grabbed a bag of chips.
"oh-my-god!" She said as she stuffed chips into her mouth. InuYasha was amused and deeply confused. "I-habve-sluch-a-crawving-hore-hes!" She said as she stuffed more chips into her mouth. Kagome had been eating chips, and a certain kind for the matter of fact, for the past three months. Kagome than put away the bag when she was done and they went to sit down. He kissed her on the cheek.
