" Kanru!" Kagome screamed making the demon turn from trying to kill the wounded Inuyasha. As soon as he turned an arrow collided with his heart.

" No how can a human defeat me!" He cried as turned into dust. Shippo was cheering for another victory Kagome fell to her knees holding her left shoulder that was dripping crimson tears of blood.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha coughed as he pulled himself to Kagome as she shuttered from the pain.

"Did we…. win?" Kagome whispered painfully as she lifted her head to look at him, she had a cut on her check as tears ran down her cheeks.

" Yes but you are hurt wench!" Inuyasha muttered looking at her blood stained shirt with a cut that revealed a gash in her shoulder as he hand clutched the full jewel in her hand.

" It won't hurt much long…. here it's finally whole Koga gave me the last two!" Kagome smiled in front of the pain that was slowly disappearing. Then with one more cough and shudder of pain she closed her eyes and whispered," I…love you…Inu…." Though she didn't fish as she fell to her side as her grip weakened on the jewel.

"Ka…gom…e? Kagome!" Inuyasha muttered as he felt her still warm body.

"No!" He screamed long and loud tears running down his face.

"Shit!" Inuyasha cursed as he sat up in his bed sweat running down his face, with a sigh her got up and went into the bathroom washing his face as he let the water run he looked at his refection. It had been a whole year since that happen Kagome had just turned 18 and he was going to ask her to be his mate then Kanru the forest demon attached them.

With another sigh he stopped the water he left the bathroom and walked down the stairs.

He fell down on the couch as he grabbed a book from the table.

"Your awake?" Someone asked from the kitchen.

"Yah! What are you doing up at this time of night?" Inuyasha muttered never letting his eyes leave his book.

"I was having a hard time sleeping!" She answered as she walked over to the couch and sat next to him it was dark in the room though Inuyasha could see jest fine.

"Was I muttering in my sleep again?" He asked looking up at his mate how wore a kimono that was just Kikyo's though instead of red it was pink.

"Yes though Shippo was whining in the other room so I went to check on him." She answered as her chocolate eyes tried to study his face with no success.

"Oh it seem no one in this house can sleep peacefully how are Sang and Miroku doing?" He asked as he studied her waist brown hair. She looked just like she did when he met her though she wasn't a kimono person.( He he I will not tell you how she is yet!)

" Well me and Sango both couldn't sleep so we talked. She has now been pregnant for a few month and having hassles with the twins!" She giggled.

" Man if she get pregnant every year she will need to add to their house! I hope she doesn't have twins again!" Inuyasha grinned.

"I know her two boys are enough though her oldest is sweet she just turned three!" She laughed.

"What are their names again?" Inuyasha asked as he set his book down he wore his normal kimono though he didn't have his shirts on.

" Well the oldest is Kanna and the twins are Yasha and Hanu!" She answered as she turned to him her grin though her giggles met him.

"Why did Miroku have to call his oldest of the twins after me!" He groaned.

"Well he had a bad temper like you though he decided to leave off the Inu part!" She giggled as she remembered that day as if was yesterday Inuyasha trying to kill Miroku for naming Yasha after him.

" Well he is a demon by heart he bit me yesterday so I hit him over the head! To make it better he already has the girls running from him. By 15 he will be grouping any cute girls in sight!" He answered as he shuttered at the thought of Miroku teaching him his ways!

" It's not that bad one of them got that!" She smiled.

" So talking about kids when do I get to have kids of mine?" Inuyasha asked as he studied his mate.

" Well since to day I'm officially 19, I will say I'm ready!" She answered as she took a second to think. When she looked down she saw Inuyasha grinning.

"Don't even!" She ordered as she got up and started to back up though he followed, soon she was cornered to a wall.

" I love you K…"
