Chapter Ten

A.N.: I am soooo sorry! I know I haven't updated but it's not my fault! My parents had to paint the office. We had to move the computer out of the room and painting took a week. Then moving the stuff back in took another week and my mom took forever to call the Internet people. It was so annoying! Anyway, here is chapter ten! Enjoy!

Last time on Unhealable Scars…

"I don't want a mate."

9 weeks later…(hee hee.)

"Kagome, breath," Kaede said as she watched the young priestess wince in pain.

Sango watched in horror as Kagome started to bleed from…yeah. Kaede's face turned to that of a worried one. "This is not supposed to happen," she muttered to herself.

Outside, Inuyasha was sitting in a nearby tree. He wanted to be with Kagome but after what she had said a few weeks ago, he didn't think that she wanted him with her. Besides, Sango and Kaede would've kicked him out anyway.

When he smelt a lot of Kagome's blood, his immediate instinct made him run to the hut. Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara were sitting outside waiting for news and Miroku had to hold Inuyasha back to keep him from going in.

Inside, Kaede said, "I can see the head." (Yes, I know. This is totally unneeded; I guess I should just skip to the part where it's out already.)

2 hours later…

Kagome held her new born, asleep in her arms. It was a beautiful baby girl. She had dark black hair with wolf ears on top of her head and gold eyes (this way she inherits something from Inuyasha). Kagome was glad that she didn't look anything like her father.

"What are you going to name her?" Sango asked.

Kagome thought. " Yume."

"That's a very good name for her," Sango said, smiling.

Inuyasha walked in at that moment and Sango left, knowing the look on his face. Inuyasha sat down next to Kagome. "A girl?" he asked.

She nodded. "Do you want to hold her?" she asked.

He looked at her nervously and she chuckled. "Here," she said, taking his hands. "Hold her head with one hand and with the other hold her body."

He held Yume for a minute and Kagome noticed that he grew more relaxed. Then she had a memory of her conversation with Inuyasha a few weeks ago.

"Inuyasha," she said. "When I said that I didn't want a mate, that didn't mean that I don't love you."

He looked at her surprised. "It meant that," she took a deep breath. "It meant that I didn't want someone I didn't know to be my mate."

"Is she saying that she wants to be my mate?" Inuyasha asked himself.

"Inuyasha, I love you."

That did it. "Kagome," he said barely audible. "Will you be my mate?"

Kagome's eyes lit up with joy for the first time in a long time. "I do," she said smiling.

A.N. Cheesy, I know. My bad. But I'm ending it soon so what do you expect? I believe that there will only be one more chapter to this story. Maybe two chapters, if I do an epilogue. Who knows? I guess it all depends on fate. Anyway, please review and have a nice day.
