Chapter Thirty Six: Disliking a Village

Warning: This chapter is a little short, I've had a lot of homework taking up my time but better a short chapter then no chapter at all, right?

Sango walk with her little brother into the camp just as Kagome finished her food. She looked over and noticed that both their eyes were a little red and puffy, but she didn't question it. If she had been reunited with a long lost brother, she would probably cry too.

"Your food is in the pot." Inuyasha said, "Does anyone have a plan for today?"

Kagome stretched her arms and stood up. "I'm going to the river." She tried to walk, but Inuyasha grabbed her ankle.

"What for?"

Kagome frowned. "I don't need a caretaker."

Inuyasha sighed, he hated how short Kagome's temper was now that she was pregnant. "I was just wondering. Last time you got lost."

"To soak my feet, they're sore."

"Fine." He let go of the ankle and watched her leave.

"Inuyasha." Sango quickly hugged him from behind, "Thanks for finding Kohaku."

He shrugged and stood up. "It was Kagome who found him, I just brought him here." Inuyasha picked Shippo up by his tail and started to follow Kagome.

"Hey Inuyasha! Where are you taking me?" Shippo tried to wiggle out of Inuyasha's grip, but it didn't work.

"You and I are going to the river with Kagome."

"Why?"

"You ask to many questions."

It didn't take them that long to catch up with Kagome. When she saw them coming she slowed down and waited. "Inuyasha, I'm not going to get lost. It's day time."

"I know." He set Shippo down and kissed Kagome on the cheek. "I thought you could use some company."

Kagome gave him a look of disbelief.

"And," he whispered in her ear, "I figured Kohaku and Miroku could use some bonding time. They're gonna be brothers soon."

Kagome squeezed his arm and smiled. She loved how thoughtful he could be at times. "Inu, do you think you could carry me?" she put on a puppy dog face, but it was unnecessary. Inuyasha would have carried her even if she didn't use it.

He carried Kagome bridal style and Shippo sat on his head, till they all reached the river. "Ok Shippo." Inuyasha said, "You can stop using me as a free ride."

"But Kagome gets free rides."

"That's cause I like her more then you."

"Hey!"

Inuyasha laughed at Shippo's reaction then shook him off. Shippo smiled and ran to the river. He dipped his toe in then pulled off his shirt and jumped in.

Inuyasha set Kagome gently on the ground so she could place her, already naked, feet in the water. He looked down at them in the clear water. He could easily see that they were swollen and had a few blisters on them.

"Does it hurt to walk?" he asked.

"Some times." Kagome mumbled.

"You know, I don't mind carrying you. If your feet hurt you could just -"

"I know." Kagome didn't feel like hearing the whole I'll help you' speech. She knew that Inuyasha was there for her if she needed it.

She lifted her feet out of the water and looked at them sadly. Inuyasha grabbed one of them and rubbed it while watching Shippo swim.

"So" Inuyasha glanced down at her. "is the baby gonna be a girl?"

Kagome closed her eyes and leaned back into the grass, "I'm not telling."

"Is it a boy?"

She laughed at his persistence; "It's a surprise."

Inuyasha tried several times to get Kagome to tell him, but she wasn't falling for any of his tricks. "I bet you don't even know." He tried a different approach, "I bet you just want to act like you're smarter then me."

"I am smarter then you."

Inuyasha smirked and switched to her other foot. "Sure you are" he mumbled.

"What?" Kagome asked. She had heard him, but was enjoying their little battle of the brains.

"Nothing."

Sango glanced over at Miroku before sitting next to her brother. Kohaku was eating his foot happily. "Who cooked this?"

"I did." Miroku said instantly hoping to impress Kohaku and Sango with his cooking skills, but they didn't fall for it.

"This taste like Inuyasha's cooking to me." Sango said.

Miroku blushed a little bit before mumbling an apology.

Kohaku finished his food and set the plate down on the ground. "Miroku. After you marry my sister, we're gonna be brothers aren't we?"

"Yeah."

Kohaku looked down at his feet. Neither Miroku nor Sango could tell if the look on his face was disappointment or simply boredom. "Is it ok that I'm gonna marry Sango?" Miroku asked.

Kohaku looked back up at Miroku, "Yeah, my sister is happy with you."

Sango smiled and hugged her brother, "I'm going to check on the others." She said before leaving. She wanted Miroku and Kohaku to have a little bit of time to really get to know each other. After all, it was true that they would be brothers soon.

She walked down to the river when Inuyasha, Kagome, and Shippo were. Kagome was still sitting by the river, but Inuyasha and Shippo both had their ears pressed to her stomach.

"I'm surprised that," Kagome said, "you aren't able to tell the gender Inuyasha. Can't most demons sense things like that."

"I'm only half demon." He reminded her, "And Shippo's to young to be able to tell. Why won't you just let us know?"

"Because I want you to be surprised."

"I still think it's going to be a girl." Sango said, making herself known.

Shippo shook his head, "I want it to be a boy."

"Why?" Kagome asked.

"Because then I'll have a little brother to play with."

All three of them looked down at Shippo. "Brother?" they all said at the same time.

Shippo slapped his forehead, he hadn't meant to say brother out loud. For a long time he had been thinking of Kagome as his mom and the baby as his little brother or sister. "S-Sorry." He mumbled.

"Sorry for what?" Inuyasha asked.

Shippo looked at the ground, wishing he could become invisible right now. Kagome sensed how uncomfortable he was and placed her hand on his back. "Shippo, do you want to be the baby's older brother?"

"C-Can I call you mom."

Kagome smiled, "Sure."

Shippo's face brightened up and he jumped into Kagome's arms. "Thanks mom." He loved being able to call Kagome that.

Inuyasha smiled at what was going on, then he suddenly realized something, "Sango, shouldn't you be with your brother."

"No. I gave Kohaku and Miroku some alone time. They should get to know each other."

"I guess your right."

Sango sat down on the ground in front of Kagome. "So, what should we do?"

"What do you mean?"

"Should we go back to Kaede's village."

"Yeah." Inuyasha said instantly. "Kagome makes me nervous."

"I do." She looked at him oddly.

"Yeah, what if something happened to you. We'd be so far away from Kaede's village and the well that we probably wouldn't be able to help you."

"You don't have to worry too much. This baby won't be coming from two more months." She glanced over at the mountains. "I think -" she tried to mentally measure the distance to them. "we should go to the nearest village and stock up on supplies before we leave."

Inuyasha sighed, "Fine."

Sango was the only one who noticed that she glanced over at the mountains when she spoke. It reminded her of the plan Kagome told her about. Kagome isn't that stupid is she? she thought instantly. She knew that if Kagome left for the mountains alone while seven months pregnant, something bad could happen to her or to the baby.

She would have to talk with her before they got any closer to the mountains.

They all spend the rest of the morning relaxing. Shippo would play in the water, Sango would walk to camp and back every now and then to check on Miroku and Kohaku, and Inuyasha and Kagome just laid in the grass.

Kagome spent most of her time using Inuyasha's stomach as a pillow while he ran his fingers trough her hair (being careful with his claws).

They didn't start walking again till after lunch. Sango cooked this time. She made a little extra for Kagome, as usual, who ate it quickly, as usual. By watching her eat, anyone would think that the others were starving Kagome.

She ate like she knew that she wouldn't get another meal. "I'm just really hungry." She said whenever someone asked her about it.

It didn't take them very long to see the nearest village though. It came into their sight sometime around sunset. Sango and Kohaku sighed happily. They had all decided to use Miroku to do a exorcism' and get them a free room.

Deep down they knew it was wrong, but they each really wanted a bed to sleep on (pardon Inuyasha, who couldn't care less where he slept.)

"There is it." Shippo said. They were all on top of a hill, Kagome and Inuyasha looked down it and, just as Shippo had said, there was a small village.

"Thank god." Kagome said, "My feet were starting to hurt."

They continued to walk down the hill, but Kagome stopped when she realized that Inuyasha wasn't following them. "Inuyasha." She turned around and looked up at the top of the hill.

The others stopped and turned around too. Inuyasha was staring at the town below while sitting in the position that always reminded Kagome of a dog.

"Inuyasha, what's wrong?" Kagome asked.

"I'm not staying there." He mumbled.

"What?" Miroku said, "It's the nearest village. The next one it a three days walk."

Inuyasha sighed. "I don't care, I'm not staying there."

Let's see if I got this right

Godmother: Lizzy p.r.

Godfather: AznPiro

Godbrother: up for grabs

Godsister: up for grabs

Goduncle: up for grabs

Godauntie: DemonKitty (hold crap, you need to make up your mind)

Friend: Eekolie

So the position of godbrother, godsister, and goduncle is still open. First come first serve I guess. I want 6 reviews.

Lots of love DayDreamer62386
