dreams but hey those are my dreams and no one else's. So.there. Sticks
tongue out, on to the story.
Chapter 17: Say What?
By InuShemeeko
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow as he looked over at Leiko.
"You mind telling me what the hell you're talking about here."
Leiko looked over at Inuyasha with a confused looked on her face.
"You're half dog right?"
"Yeah, so what if I am"
All the members of the once small groups just watched, as the two half demons talked.
"Then you should be able to smell the difference in your mate's scent."
Inuyasha's anger was starting to build as he took a step closer. Then suddenly the wind seemed to shift a bit, picking up Kagome's flowery scent and blowing it right at him. At first he didn't smell anything different about Kagome's scent. Inuyasha sniffed the air again, there was Kagome's along with his forest scent, however mixed in with the two smells was the smell of wild flowers and pines.
Inuyasha shook his head, as he thought to himself.
'Wait a minute if I smell something that is similar to mine and Kagome's scents, then that would mean that Kagome is..'
Inuyasha's thoughts trailed away as the last word on his mind slipped through his lips.
"Preg..nant."
The next thing that the hanyou did next was a surprise to the whole group. He fainted. Kagome gasped as she watched Inuyasha fall backwards to the ground.
"Inuyasha!"
Leiko couldn't help but smirk at Inuyasha's limp form that was lying on the ground.
"Well that wasn't the reaction I had expected out of him."
She then walked over to Shimiko.
"Did he faint like that when you told him that one of the pups you carry could be his?"
Shimiko shook her head.
"No he didn't? We're not very sure if he is the father, or not."
Leiko nodded her head. She then made her way toward the unconscious Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippou, Miroku and Sango. Leiko giggled lightly to herself as she glazed down at the @-@ eyed inu-hanyou. She then pulled three leaves out from behind one of her spotted ears. Leiko then gave her fingers a snap and the three leaves grew big enough to hold three people upon them.
Shippou's eyes widened, as he looked at the leaves he then scurried over to Leiko's side.
"Wow, you have fox demon in you don't you?"
Leiko smiled down at the little kit. She could see his little nose smelling at her. Shippou's green eyes looked up at her one more time.
"Is there dog demon in you too? Cause you kind of smell like Inuyasha and Shimiko."
Leiko decided that it wouldn't hurt to answer the kits questions now.
"Yes, to both of your question. It comes from my fathers side."
"Wow, you mean your dad was half fox and half dog demon?"
"Yep he sure is."
She then went and knelt down beside of Kagome.
"Come on I'll help you carry him over to our ride. It's going to get dark before we know it. So I want to made sure we're safe."
Kagome nodded as she wrapped Inuyasha right arm around her neck, while Leiko got the other side. Once they reached one of the leaves Kagome frowned at it.
"I don't know if all three of us will fit on it."
Leiko smiled over at her as she lay Inuyasha down on the leaf.
"Hey, don't worry I'm sure Inuyasha will be fine."
Kagome bit her lip as she looked at Leiko before she spoke.
"Is it true that I really am pregnant."
Leiko tapped her nose.
"Hey, this nose has never let me down."
Leiko's eyes widened as she looked at Kagome and then she gasped.
"You didn't know? I thought that it was only your mate who didn't have a clue."
Kagome smiled sheepishly at her.
"Well, I was just starting to wonder if I might have been. I just never had anytime to think about it."
She then looked down at Inuyasha.
"Do you think Inuyasha will be ok?"
Leiko nodded.
"I'm sure as soon as the shock wears off. He will be up and doing whatever he does best."
Kagome then smiled as she was helped up on to the leaf. Once everyone was seated on a leaf, Leiko gave her right hand a wave and the three leaves soared into the air. Miroku and Sango followed behind on Kirara's back.
*****************************
Inuyasha blinked his eyes as they adjusted to the dim light that was coming from the fire.
"Where the hell am I?"
Inuyasha spoke as he slowly sat up.
"What happened any way?"
His memory quickly returned to him. Making Inuyasha look quickly beside him and there cuddled next to him was Kagome's sleeping form.
'Was it all a dream?'
Inuyasha sniffed the air around both him and Kagome. Nope not a dream the same flowery-pine scent was all over Kagome.
"Does Kagome being pregnant bother you that much Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha turned his golden orbs toward the voice to see Shimiko staring at him.
"No, why would it? I was just a little surprised that's all. I just have a lot to think about and a choice to make."
"What choice is there to make Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha got up from where he sat, and walked toward Shimiko. His eyes soon fell on Shimiko swollen abdomen.
"Well, now that you and Kagome are expecting pups. I have a choice to make."
Shimiko shook her head at him.
"Are you really that brainless? You've made your choice stupid, you did that the day you asked her if you could mark her."
Inuyasha looked over at her with his two confused golden eyes.
"But what about the pups that you are carrying?"
"They will have Kiyoshi and I."
Shimiko smiled when she noticed the look on Inuyasha's face.
"I'm not saying that you can't be a part of the child's life."
Shimiko reached out and placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder.
"We aren't even sure if you are the father."
"And if I am?"
Shimiko looked over to where Kagome was sleeping, then back at Inuyasha.
"If you are then we will work something out. However, I would prefer it if you would not worry about it. Kagome will need you more then I do."
Her amber-green eyes held with his golden orbs.
"Besides Inuyasha, you never declared your love to me but to Kagome."
Shimiko took several steps away from Inuyasha. Before she spoke to him again.
"The next couple of months and going to go by fast. Trust me I know. Kagome will be going through a lot of changes and she will need you to be there for her. Are you sure you can do that?"
Inuyasha frowned at her.
"What are you talking about? Of course I'll be there for her."
"Are you sure Inuyasha? She'll be happy one minute, sad the next. Kagome is going to need you to be there for her emotionally as well as sexually."
Inuyasha's mouth fell open at the last one.
"Did...diid you just say sexually?"
Inuyasha then swallowed hard.
Shimiko smirked at him when she saw his reaction.
"Yes, Inuyasha pregnant women can be very horny at times, during the first couple of months. However, I never heard Kiyoshi complain about it."
She giggled as she walked away from Inuyasha and toward Kiyoshi. Inuyasha then made he way back toward Kagome.
'Man, can I really handle these changes Kagome will be going through? I have too for Kagome she'll be needing my support more then ever.'
