Chapter Eleven

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.

A.N. Hello. I asked Lil Kudo "What fanfic should I update?" and she said this one. So yeah. Here's chapter eleven.

One month after Yume's been born…

Kagome woke up in Kaede's hut. Next to her lay her one month old baby girl, Yume. She was crying again. Kagome sat up and picked Yume up and began breast feeding her. Yume ate gratefully and Kagome took the time to take in her daughter's appearance.

Yume had Kagome's eyes and hair. Her face was more like Kouga but not too much so. She also had a little black and brown tail. Overall, Kagome was glad that Yume didn't resemble her father.

Another person who appreciated that was Inuyasha. He had gotten very protective of Kagome and Yume since she was born. Kagome was very happy that Inuyasha didn't reject Yume even though it was Kouga's.

Everyone had sad how beautiful Yume was when she was born. Kagome let everyone hold her and had Shippo sit with her so he could hold Yume. Unfortunately, Kagome hadn't been able to return to her time since before Yume was born. She had gotten a small fever and Inuyasha wouldn't let her go home.

But Kagome was better now and planned on returning to her home today. She finished feeding Yume and rocked her to sleep. Kagome watched her baby girl lovingly before she too lay back down to get another few hours before sun rise.

Kagome awoke to Yume's crying at sun rise. She was still breast feeding when Inuyasha walked in. He had a bowl of soup from Kaede who staying in a different hut to give Kagome and her baby some privacy. He smiled slightly at Yume and placed the bowl in front of Kagome.

"Ohayo gozaimasu," Kagome said brightly. "Arigato.

"Ohayo gozaimasu," Inuyasha said smiling at Kagome. "Are you going back today?"

Kagome nodded. "Hai."

Inuyasha nodded. "Be careful."

He stood and started to walk out. "Inuyasha, wait."

He turned to look at Kagome. "Would you mind…coming with me this time, onegai?"

"Honto ka?"

"Hai, onegai ka?"

He smiled big. "Okay."

Kagome's smile grew. He turned to leave. "Arigato, Inuyasha."

"…"

He walked out.

Kagome waited until Yume was done eating before beginning her own breakfast. She wrapped Yume up in a warm blanket and held her while she ate. Kagome then stood up and stretched before getting dressed. When that was done she packed her things into her backpack and put her backpack on. Then she grabbed Yume and walked out the door, greeting the day.

Inuyasha was waiting for outside the hut. He waited as Kagome went to say good-bye to everyone before walking to the well. When they reached the well, Inuyasha took Kagome's backpack and jumped first. Kagome followed with Yume in her arms.

Inuyasha helped Kagome out of the well and they walked towards her house. She went in and yelled, "Mom! Souta? Grandpa?"

"Kagome, is that you?" Grandpa walked out of the nearest room. "Where've you been? It's been more than a month since we've seen you? And what on earth?"

He noticed the little bundle that Kagome carried. "You had your baby already?"

Kagome nodded and gently placed her daughter in to her grandfather's arms. "This is Yume. She's a hanyou, Grandpa."

He looked at his great-granddaughter with tears his eyes. "She looks so much like you, Kagome," he said.

Kagome blushed and her hand found Inuyasha's as she looked for support. Inuyasha gave her hand a little squeeze. "Where are mom and Souta?" Kagome asked.

"They went out to the store. They'll be back soon, I believe," he said as he returned Yume to her mother.

All of them went into the leaving room. Kagome sat down on the couch with Inuyasha while Grandpa sat on the love seat. There was an awkward silence. "What kind is she?" Grandpa asked, indicating Yume.

Kagome grimaced. "She's half…wolf demon."

He nodded. "Your mother told me what happened, Kagome. I don't want to bring it up, but you know that you can talk about it if you want."

Kagome's hands turned into fists as she refrained from crying. "It's okay, Grandpa. I'm doing better, now. My friends helped me with that."

She looked at Inuyasha as she said this. He smiled at her. It was true. After Yume was born, Sango and Kagome had done a lot of talking. Most of the time Kaede was there but she went to bed far earlier than the two younger did.

The front door opened and a voice yelled, "Grandpa! We're home!"

Kagome stood up at the sound of her brother's voice. Souta came into the living room. "Kagome, you're home! And you brought Inuyasha with you!" Souta ran up to Inuyasha, who decided not to strangle that should he get too annoying.

Yume started to cry when Souta yelled and Souta's attention was brought to the crying bundle in Kagome's arms. He walked over to Kagome with a puzzled look on his face. Kagome lowered Yume down so he could his niece. "Souta, this is your niece, Yume," Kagome said.

Souta looked at Kagome. "You're talking now? That's great! Mom will be so happy." He looked back at Yume. "Can I hold her?" he asked with such gentleness Kagome couldn't say no.

"Sure." She lowered Yume into his arms saying, "Watch her head, you've got to support it."

Souta held his niece with a look of delight on his face as she stopped crying. "She's so cute, Annue-san."

Kagome smiled. "Hai."

The door opened again and Kagome's mom was yelling, "Souta, I told you to help me with the groceries!"

Mrs. Higurashi walked in to the living room holding five bags all of which she dropped when she saw Kagome and Inuyasha. "Kagome! Honey, are you okay? You haven't been home in over a month!"

Mrs. Higurashi caught a look at the baby in Souta's hands. She was silent. "Mom," Kagome started as she took Yume back from Souta. "This is Yume, your granddaughter."

Kagome placed Yume in her mom's arms and waited for her mom's response. Minutes went by as tears ran down her face. "I don't know what to be more surprised about," she said a few minutes later. "That you're talking or that I have a granddaughter."

Kagome smiled and Inuyasha was starting to get bored. There was way too much crying and cheerfulness for him. Kagome's mom gave Yume back to Kagome and said, "We have a lot to talk about. Lets go sit down and I'll make us some tea, okay?"

Kagome and Inuyasha both nodded. They all headed for the kitchen for a very long talk.

A.N. Okay, That's not the last chapter. I'm thinking between three and four chapters before it's over, unless I leave it in a situation where over thirty people are asking for a sequel. Whatever, review and I'll be happy. This chapter was three pages long so don't complain. And another thing. I could've made Kagome reject the baby but i didn't so i'm not that mean after all! No flames!

P.S. The little button at the bottom is my friend and you friend. K?
