Okay, so letting you know how many reviews I need is getting tough. I say 150 and when I have 155 reviews, I'm not even done with the chapter. Sorry, I shall try my best to correct this mistake.

Chapter Fourteen: Six Months

"I'm sorry... I didn't even think twice about it until this morning..." She admitted. Her mother hugged her tightly then let go.

"Now, I'm sure your boyfriend, or whatever, is waiting for you... You can tell him the news." She said. Kagome nodded then left the house and jumped back into the well.

When she pulled herself out of the well, she say a pair of golden eyes staring at her. Instinct told her it was Inuyasha, but she knew he was taken to hell with Kikyou. So, who was staring at her.

"You tell the truth about your time." He stated. He used his hand to help pull Kagome out of the well. She landed on her feet then looked at the demon lord. "You worried me."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to be gone so long." She stated. He nodded then looked at her for a while. "I assume you know that I'm pregnant."

"Yes, I do. But why are you so nervous about it?" He asked. Kagome looked down and scuffed her foot in the ground.

"Well, usually it takes a day or two to actually be pregnant and morning sickness doesn't start immediately... Not only that, but most men in my time leave when a girl is pregnant." She told him. The demon lord raised an eyebrow.

"Well, perhaps you are thinking of human pregnancies only." He said. She looked up at him and he could see confusion written all over her face. "Demons take six months to be born, and so do half demons. The process is much different... Not to mention demons are protective over the ones they love."

"SIX MONTHS? I thought it'd take nine months like humans did!" She yelled. The demon lord's hands slowly closed over his ears until the yelling subsided. Then he removed them.

"It's less time to be sick and to be carrying pups." He said. She glared at him and cleared her throat. Damn, he kept doing this. "Kids." He corrected. She smiled then they went back to the castle.

After five agonizing months, Kagome had officially given up on walking normal. She now waddled to wherever she was going. Anyone who snickered would get at least three bruises. If not, then more. As she lay in bed, she glanced out the window. It was probably around noon. Why was the day passing this slow?

By this time of day, she'd have thrown up. Not today, or yesterday. Perhaps her morning sickness had gotten better. That or it had started building up for one giant load of vomit. Her stomach churned at the thought. She stared at the ceiling until the door creaked open.

Normally, the creaking was annoying. But when she was pregnant, it made a wonderful alarm. Whenever someone opened the door, she knew it was time to start sitting up. Hearing the creak from the door, she sat up. Shippo and Rin came up to her. They were calm around her, but she could always hear them giggling in another room. At least they found entertainment.

"Kagome, can I feel your belly? Sesshoumaru says that the kids kick inside you and I want to feel." Shippo explained. Kagome looked at Rin, who merely nodded in agreement. They had become timid around her when she had a mood swing and nearly yelled at Sesshoumaru in front of them. At least they weren't too afraid to see her.

"Sure." She said. She hung her legs over the side of the bed then watched as Shippo came up and rubbed her stomach. Almost as if he hit a button, something inside her kicked. Shippo smiled then took Rin's hand and placed it on Kagome's stomach.

"Feel it! You can really tell there's someone inside her!" He claimed. Rin's hand rested on Kagome's stomach. Moments passed then something kicked again. Kagome smiled at the two giggling kids then slowly stood up. She hated waddling around, but she had to find out what Sesshoumaru was doing. Staring at the ceiling wasn't interesting at all. Obviously.

"Does it always kick that much?" Rin asked her. She shook her head then came to grips that her hair was most likely a mess. She hadn't brushed it yet.

"It only kicks when it knows there are people touching it." She replied. Rin and Shippo both smiled as Kagome ran the brush through her hair.

"Does it hurt?" Shippo asked. Kagome turned to him so he could see her smile.

"No." She replied. Even though it occasionally kicked hard enough to hurt, most of the time it felt just as normal as her own heartbeat. The two ran off to play with the crayons again as Kagome waddled out to find Sesshoumaru. She hated waddling so much, and walking normally would be such a relief for her. Just one more month of this.

Sesshoumaru sat at his desk, looking over papers that should have interested him. But they didn't. His mind kept reverting back to his pregnant mate... Damn it! When would he change that! His pregnant wife. Wife, wife, wife. Why was it so hard for him to remember to call her that?

Perhaps he should just stick to calling her Kagome. What would he call the pups. Damn. He did it again. What would he call the children if he didn't get used to not calling them pups? Perhaps he'd just refer to them with their names.

Sesshoumaru was snapped out of his thoughts as soon as Kagome's scent neared his door. The once pleasant scent was now accompanied by the scents of his future kid. She opened the door and peeked her head in. When her gaze fell on him, she sighed and walked in.

"There you are. I was wondering where you went." She said. She sat down in front of him. Sesshoumaru smiled at her as he noticed her hand resting on her stomach. It was almost as if her stomach was a magnet for that hand, as she would always rest it on her stomach.

"I was signing papers." He told her. He stood up then walked behind her and gave her neck a gentle nudge. Even the demon lord could not await the arrival of his child. As Kagome giggled, he took her hand from her stomach. "Does the child bother you much?"

"No... I'm just tired and bored now." She replied. He kissed her head as she looked over his claws. Nothing too interesting, so he wondered why she looked in the first place. "Hey... I know the kid grows fast inside me, but willit grow up faster once I actually give birth to it?" There was a pause. "Okay, that didn't make sense. Will it go from being a child to an adult faster?"

The demon lord shook his head, explaining, "No. It will grow just as fast as a human, but it will live much longer." She relaxed and nodded. Did she want the kids to grow at a normal rate that bad? He imagined that, if anything, she wanted it to take less time. He couldn't stand too much of Rin, so what made her so tolerant of her own children?

He helped her up and to their room before resting her on the bed. She relaxed completely, her mind wandering off to when the child would be born. Would it be a boy or girl? What would it look like? Perhaps it'd be like Inuyasha and have those adorable dog ears... Wait, did all half demons have dog ears or just Inuyasha?

She couldn't wait to meet her own child. Then showing her mother her child, her mother would be happy. She'd probably play with his ears just like she had done with Inuyasha's ears. Kagome closed her eyes and tried to focus on names. One for a boy and one for a girl... Depending on it's gender that is.

Kagome's eyes slowly closed as her mind swam with the questions. Would her grandpa try to stick sutras on her kid for being a half demon? She hoped not. What a horrible way to be acquainted with your great grandpa.

Gramps: Ahh! A demon! He'd throw sutras at it. Meanwhile, the child would be crying or cowering from what this old thing was doing to it. She could only pray that he wouldn't treat it like an outcast. He was fine with Inuyasha, so why should he not be fine with her child? Soon enough, she did fall asleep. A releif on her busy mind.

Next Chapter: 180 Reviews required to have it posted. I'm only going easy because I only got a few reviews since I posted this chapter... My ultimate goal is to get 200 reviews. If I get 200 reviews by the time the story is finished, I shall create a sequal. Just to let you know what you need to give me to get a sequal out of me.

- Kirarafourseasons: I have been getting a lot of brain farts recently. I am blaming my horrible memory on the accident. Before, I could finish my sentence before I forgot what I was saying. Now I get two words out and I don't know what is going on, what day/year/time it is... Takes me a while to regain myself.

- IYGU: What do those letters stand for, anyway? As for what I meant to type, you have helped me decide what the children will look like. A hanyou very much indeed. Hmm. Perhaps I should start looking into saying hanyou instead of half demon...

I keep making the mistake of letting some secrets slip into the chapter. Well, you'll have to wait a while before knowing what I mean, but I will post it in the beginning of next chappie... The next chapter will... Oh. Nevermind, I wouldn't want to give it away. So, here is what I want you to do:

Part One: Tell me how many you think she'll have. Whether you think it's one or ten, tell me.
Part Two: Tell me what gender the child (or children) will be.
Part Three: Tell mehow you think Kagome's family, Rin, and Shippo will react to the new child (or children).

I am just curious as to what my awesome readers are thinking. I won't eat you (or hurt you with pistachio shells) if you don't answer, but it'd be cool. Okay, enough babbling. Chapter must end NOW. But, not without my famous siggy!
