A/N: Ok, this was ridiculous. I had to get the 4th chapter up at the library. What a pain it was to type this chapter. The computer was being extremely stupid and wouldn't let me do practically anything until just a few days ago. I've been working on this chapter for not very long before I finally got it done. Hope the wait wasn't too long for my reviewers... (hint to the non reviewers..) I love my reviews and I hopefully didn't make you wait all too long for this chapter, not like the last one.. I think that it's time for you to find out what Inuyasha was going to tell Kagome.. Reviews at end, like always. JA NE for now

Chapter 5

"Kagome... we need to go and visit Totosai." Inuyasha said, taking a hold of Kaogme's hand. "Is that alright?"

"Inuyasha, I thought– "

"We can go back to your parent's house in the next couple of days. If it's alright, I'd like to see him as soon as possible. I know that to an extent that you don't believe what I'm saying to you, so I thought it would be a good idea for us to go and see him." Inuyasha grasped Kagome's hand. "Together."

Kagome smiled warmly at her husband and knew that he was right. Part of her didn't believe that it would be 6 months compared to 9, but it was a good idea to go and check up on it anyway. "Alright. We'll go and see my parents the day after tomorrow." Kagome was eased onto Inuyasha's back, and they set off to go and see Totosai.

Totosai's home.(Don't exactly know what it is...)

"Totosai!" Inuyasha called into the cave where he had last received repairs on his Tetsusaiga. "Totosai! Are you here?" Inuyasha looked around and set Kagome on the ground gently. "Totosai!" She called. "Totosai!"

"What in the world are you both screaming at me for? I'm right here." Totosai said sneaking up on them. Inuyasha jumped into the air and Kagome had this shocked look plastered on her face. When Inuyasha managed to come out of his shocked state, he yelled at Totosai, "Why the hell did you just come up behind and scare both of us nearly to death like that!"

"It's good to see you both looking so energetic. I've not seen you since... oh what was it? 2 years ago?" Inuyasha nodded his head. "Yeah. Old man, my mate, and wife," indicating to Kagome so she wouldn't get so angry with him. She hated the term 'mate'. "Is pregnant. With my child of course."

"How long has it been?" Totosai asked with a look of seriousness in his eyes.

"Just about 30 days." Kagome answered. She became worried when she saw Totosai's eyes close. "Is there something wrong with that?" Kagome asked, not bothering to hide the nervousness in her voice.

"Kagome, are you sure a child is what you want right now?"

Kagome was confused by the question that Totosai had asked. "Of course I am."

"There will be much that you have to learn about this child Kagome. For instance, has your husband, Inuyasha, told you that the child will be a half demon child, and also that it will be born in another 5 months? Did he clearly explain to you that a demon birth does not last as long compared to a normal human one?" Totosai asked with a tone not to be taken lightly by any human carrying a demon child.

"Yes, Inuyasha told me all of that. I didn't exactly believe him at the time though." Kagome said turning her head towards the ground.

"There's no need to be ashamed, just as long as you understand that now. Did he tell you the dangers of the birth? Did he mention that the child might have defects or the mother might get some serious diseases that could kill her instantly!" Kagome's eyes widened. "Ah, I see. He failed to mention that part did he?" Kagome nodded her head slowly and tears welled up in her eyes. "Did he mention the fact that if a human mother is carrying a demon's child, whether be full demon or half demon, that the child is likely to be shun from both societies, and that the mother of the child usually is the one who has to feel the most pain, as the fact that the father is most of the time away?" Kagome shook her head and looked at the ground again. 'All those things can happed? What else can go wrong? Would Inuyasha leave me, as if not want to see the birth of his child? At first, I wasn't sure that I could get an abortion, but now, it seems like a better alternative. What am I going to do? How can I make it so that I'll feel less pain if Inuyasha wasn't helping me birth his child?' The sound of Totosai's voice filled the cave once again. "Kagome, now, are you sure that you want to have Inuyasha's child within the next months? Or do you not want to have the child and have someone go inside you to kill the child and bring it back out?" Before Kagome could answer the question, Inuyasha stepped forward. "As her husband and her mate, Kagome will discuss this matter with me before we make any rash decisions." inuyasha turned to his wife. "Is that alright?" With the answer of Kagome's nods, Inuyasha and Kagome set off from the cave.

"Kagome, I don't know exactly what you were thinking while we were back at the cave, but I do know that I want you to be happy. If you want to get the child out of you as soon as possible, I respect the choice, but in my mind, I'd love to raise our son or daughter with you. If you say that it's alright of course." Kagome remained silent. 'I don't know what I want to do yet. I know that I'll need time to think about it, but I know that in the end, I'll probably know that the choice that was made was made for the best.' Kagome closed her eyes and put her head on Inuyasha's back as he hopped from treetop to treetop towards home. Whichever home Kagome wanted to return to for good (or the next days at lest) and felt her fall asleep on her back.

Inuyasha's POV

'Kagome's asleep. What is she going to be choosing? Does she want to raise a child, my child no less, with me or does she want to have the baby killed before it's even brought into this world? I- I know that I want to have the child sleeping safely in my arms and I want to know the life of a father. One that doesn't abandon his kids like my father did. Miroku is a real father, but he also isn't half demon. And Sango never had to carry a demon baby inside her. I want to know the life of a father, no matter what the others say. I want to know that Kagome wants the child as much as I do, and that I'll try and convince her to keep the child, if she decides to get rid of it. I don't want her too.' Inuyasha closed his eyes for a minute in frustration. 'I want to keep the child! I want to... Kagome. The child means so much to me. I want to keep the baby that I've made with you.' Tears were rolling down Inuyasha's face as he made his way to the well. 'I don't want to kill the child. I want to raise it and see it grow up strong and healthy. I want to teach it so many things, and I want to keep it safe from harm. Is there something so terribly wrong with that?'

Kagome's POV.

'Inuyasha's crying. Why? Is he afraid that I'll want to keep the baby? He wasn't that excited about me being pregnant in the first place. I know that I want the baby, but what if he doesn't? Will he leave me so that he'll never have to see it's face? What if he wants the baby though? Is he going to be willing to take care of it and protect it from harm? I know that he would, but would he be happy about it? I want to keep the child safe and know that it has a father in the mix as well. That I'm not going to be a single parent and that Inuyasha will do all he can to keep the child and me safe at the same time. I wish for a world that people don't have to be single parents and that Inuyasha won't leave me. He wouldn't in the first place would he? If he really loved me, he wouldn't have even bothered to ask me to marry him in the first place. I want to stay with him and know he won't be leaving me anytime soon. I want to keep the child and see it grow to be healthy and know it was loved by both it's parents.'

Inuyasha jumped down the well and took Kagome into her old room and set her on her bed. Inuyasha lay down on the bed beside her and they fell into a peaceful sleep. One that both of them were going to enjoy the most.

A/N: Ok, I hope that you liked this chapter, for the fact that I had a hard time getting it done without having to all that many drafts. I did 3 drafts only on this chapter and I'm pretty happy with the way it panned out after I finished it. I dragged it out quite a bit, but I think that the chapter was my favorite so far. Think that I can get 3 reviews for this chapter? It's not too many to ask for is it? I love the fact that people seem to like this fic and hope that the wait for this chapter wasn't too long for you all. I want to thank my faithful reviewers and hope that you liked this chapter even though a lot of it may have been confusing... I know that it was in some ways hard to understand. Love to my reviewers and hope that you liked the chapter. I'll see you for the next chapter. Jane
