Chapter 23: Another day gone by (Part II)

Inuyasha began to smell the salty tears and what she was feeling. She was panicking and he smelt fear on her. She was afraid? What was she afraid of?

Kagome leaned down and pulled on her robe. She then reached into her dresser and drew out Inuyasha's haori. She didn't bother to face him as she through the red clothe at the bed.

"Here." Kagome said. Inuyasha winced. Her feeling's showed in her voice, but now there was anger there as well. The game was up.

Kagome felt arms around her and Inuyasha kissing her neck profoundly.

"Come to think of it... maybe your idea is better then a nap, much better." Inuyasha smelt all her panic, fear, and anger dissipate. He picked Kagome up and brought her to the bed.

So they made love for hours. (A/N: Sorry I didn't put in a LEMON, but if you want one you'll have to ask.) When they were finished the sun was setting. By the end Kagome had reached her climax much more then once and so had Inuyasha. They had stopped short periods at a time, but had to continue because neither of their urges were settled.

Inuyasha was a half demon, so he didn't get exhausted quite as soon as Kagome, but her on the other hand... she had been tired from that medicine already, but now she was almost fully out of energy. That settled her urge for now, and that was because she was to out of breath and tired to think about it. She was breathing heavily and had sweat dripping from her head. Inuyasha was also breathing heavier than usual, but not as badly as Kagome. He held her against his chest and then rubbed all the hair out of her face with his claw and then whipped her forehead to clear the sweat. He sighed and then pulled her in closer.

"So, that good enough for you?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome didn't answer. Inuyasha looked down at her and noticed she was sleeping. "Oh, it's TO good." Inuyasha grinned and followed her into sleep.

The next morning

Inuyasha and Kagome were still sleeping and exhausted, they would need a little more rest that morning.

"So one kid isn't enough?" asked a voice. Inuyasha and Kagome both awoke. They looked up at the old man staring down at them. Luckily they were both covered in blankets. Inuyasha glared at Kagome's grandfather.

"What the hell! Get out!" Inuyasha yelled as he pulled Kagome as close as she could go and her blushing face was forced into his chest.

"What's all the commotion about?" asked Sota as he entered. He looked at Kagome and Inuyasha and blushed. "Oh." he left without another word, but gramps just glared.

"You two can't just do THAT all the time!" gramps bellowed.

"What has your old age effected your hearing! Get out!" Inuyasha bawled. Gramps noticed Inuyasha's threatening gaze and hurried out of the room, shutting the door behind him. When he was gone Inuyasha pulled Kagome away. "Ready for another go?" Inuyasha's hopeful glance turned to a pout when Kagome answered with a no.

"No. I'm tired. Let's just get back to the feudal era. Mom should have some breakfast made. Go and eat. I'm sure your starving. You didn't eat anything yesterday."

"What about you?" Inuyasha asked.

"I forgot to take my medicine, so I'll just eat lunch later, breakfast doesn't work to well with me." Kagome was smiling, but Inuyasha wasn't. He felt sorry for her. She couldn't eat breakfast at all and when she could she had to take nasty tasting medicine. He would, and knew she would as well, be glad when the pup was finally born.

Inuyasha laid Kagome flat on the bad and then kissed her stomach and growled affectionately as he rubbed his head against it.

"There's still a long way to go." Kagome said as though she could read his mind. He sighed and moved up and kissed her cheek. "Go and eat."

"I'll hurry." Inuyasha said. It was true he was starving, he had, had no objections to eat. He got up, dressed, and headed downstairs to eat whatever was made. Kagome sat up and tried to get dressed as well, but found her legs almost totally immobile. She sat back. Inuyasha was gentle at first, but just as she had gotten lost in him, he got lost in her and forgot about being gentle half way through, now she was soar. She sat back and rested her legs. She'd just wait as long as she needed. Inuyasha would be to busy eating to even mind, so why should she. She let out a deep sigh and closed her eyes. More rest would do her some good any way.

Later

Inuyasha was finished with his breakfast meal and was headed into Kagome's room, shutting the door quietly behind him. He noticed her sleeping and sat on the bed watching her.

In her sleep she was at such peace. She was vulnerable in her sleep. Inuyasha would always protect her, no matter what. Her and the pup would not get hurt, he would sacrifice everything for her. It didn't matter whether it was a fang, a claw, or his own life, none of it mattered compared to what Kagome mattered to him. She had done what no others had done. Not only had she excepted him for what he was, but she also gave herself to him, put her life in his hands, her trust, her love. He could never ask for more, and didn't know what he had done for a life with her, a life with his mate forever.

He leaned down and kissed her on the lips softly. She moaned and then opened her eyes.

"Done eating so soon?" Kagome asked with a smile.

"Why aren't you up yet, wench." Inuyasha asked.

"Well..." Kagome blushed. "I would if I could."

"What do you mean, 'if you could'?" Inuyasha asked with suspicion clogging his gaze.

"Um.. well... Inuyasha, it was a LONG day yesterday." She said, trying to get him to catch a hint, but he was to dense.

"What the hell does that have to do with it?"

"Inuyasha... I can't really walk.'

"What are you.." Inuyasha then caught what she meant and blushed along with her. "That long, hah? So I really am that good." Inuyasha smirked.

"Great another ego booster." Kagome mumbled.

I should be praised. Lol. Just kidding.
