A New Love
NOTE: This is basically the same as it used too be just a new and better format, so I'll be changing all the chapters up to number 15 into this new format!
Disclaimer: InuYasha and the characters aren't mine!
Summary: This is the sequel to 'My Love'; this follows the story of Yoshi and Cho after 9 years after being separated. Have they found new love?
Last Time:
The girls reached the hot springs and got in when they heard a rustling in the bushes.
Chapter 8: Sleep?
Cho and Sango's heads turned to the area where they had both heard the sound.
"Mama, did you hear that?"
"Yes"
"Who or what is it?"
"Don't know, I'll go check"
Sango got up from the hot spring and wrapped one the towels they had brought with them around herself before she slowly began to walk towards where the sound had come from. Sango reached the bottom of a tree and looked up to see Yoshi perched on one of the higher branches. He wasn't facing the hot springs but his ears were twitching. Sango tried not to but she ended up laughing. Yoshi turned around at the sound and fell out of the tree in fright when he saw Sango there laughing and in a towel.
"You aren't peeking are you?"
Yoshi blushed but he shook his head and looked away.
"No, I was worried about Cho so I came to make sure she was safe but I wasn't peeking, I'm only listening for danger not looking!"
"I believe you, your father used to do the same for Kagome, Miroku on the other hand, well let's not go there!"
"Don't tell Cho I'm here she might think I'm peeking or something"
"I won't, I'll say it was a bird or something, just no peeking else you're in real trouble!"
Yoshi nodded and jumped back to his original watch spot. Sango headed back to the hot springs and sunk back down into the water.
"Who was it?"
"It was just a bird, nothing to worry about"
"I'm worried about Yoshi, well Yoshi and I"
"Why?"
"I don't know if he really loves me and if he really wants to marry me or if he's just doing this because he feels he has to"
"Cho I'm sure he loves you, he would risk his life for you, has he asked you to be his mate yet?"
"Mate? Do you mean friend?"
Sano couldn't help but laugh at her daughters lack of knowledge of demons, maybe she hadn't taught daughter enough.
"No a mate is kind of a dog demons version of marriage, Kagome told me about it. She said first he marks you by biting you on your shoulder which leaves a scar and it warns off other demons. It also means you are the one his chosen to bare his pups"
"No…he hasn't" Cho stared down into the water, she was disappointed and she could feel the tears coming already.
"I'm sure he will; give it time, he's probably just a bit confused. For all you know he might be wondering if you love and want to marry him"
Yoshi was still sitting on his branch, back to the hot springs but he could still hear them clearly. By now he was bright red and shocked at what he had heard. 'Cho is worried about if I love her or not? Well at least she does love and want to marry me'
"We'd better go back in a minute"
"Okay"
Cho and Sango got up and dried themselves off before getting dressed and heading back home with Yoshi following them close behind in the shadows.
"Miroku we're home!"
"I'm going to bed now, night"
"Night dear"
Cho ran up the stairs and quietly opened her bedroom door to find Yoshi sleeping. He was pretending and had only just made it through the window and into the bed before Cho had opened the door. Cho bent down and whispered into Yoshi's ear.
'You're so adorable!"
Yoshi opened his eyes and pulled her down so he could kiss her properly, Cho responded before Yoshi pulled away.
"I know and you're so beautiful"
"I already knew that"
Cho giggled before getting into her bed, turning over and falling asleep. Yoshi remained awake though, wide awake.
'Maybe I should wait awhile before I ask her to marry me, just enjoy being a couple for awhile. It would be fun, I've never been anyone's boyfriend before, and I wonder what it's like? I Hope she doesn't mind waiting awhile. I still have to ask her to be my mate and mark her; if I don't soon someone else might claim her'
Yoshi's thoughts were interrupted by Cho rolling off her bed and landing next to Yoshi. 'She must be a heavy sleeper' Cho murmured something in her sleep before hugging Yoshi like he was some oversized teddy bear. Yoshi was still lying in shock at the sudden arrival of Cho. Once he got over the shock he looked down at her too see she had her head on his chest and she was still hugging him, he smiled before falling asleep.
(Morning)
"Miroku go wake them up!"
"What happens if I walk in on something?!"
"I told you to get those thoughts out of your head!"
"Why don't you wake them up then?"
"…"
"Thought so"
"We'll go together"
:sigh: "Fine"
Sango and Miroku headed up the stairs to Cho's room and they slowly opened the door to find Yoshi and Cho lying together and Yoshi had his arm protectively around her.
"Told you so!"
"They're fully clothed you moron!"
Yoshi's ears twitched a the sudden noise, he opened one eye to see Miroku and Sango peeking through the door looking at him oddly.
"What the?!"
Yoshi felt someone move and looked down to see Cho, he blushes and wakes her up.
"Err…Cho, it's time to get up"
"What:yawn: Oh morning Yoshi"
"Breakfast is ready you two"
"Hehe"
"Papa, be quiet, it's not like that!"
Cho went to get dressed in the bathroom while Yoshi got dressed in her room, when they were all ready they headed downstairs to breakfast.
"Cho ready to go?"
"Yup"
"You must be tired after last night?"
"Miroku!"
"Um…nothing happened"
"Of course it didn't!"
Cho got up and slapped her father, she didn't usually but sometimes you had to go to the extreme with her father.
"Sorry Papa, but you took it too far that time"
"Don't worry I'm getting used to it"
"We better go, thank you Miroku and Sango for your hospitality and I'll see you again soon"
"So are you going to carry me again?"
"If you want me to"
"Yes, now let's go"
Yoshi smiled and picked Cho up bridal style and hopped into the trees and headed for the well.
A/N: Good old Miroku. I've been trying to make the kids a bit like their parents, Yoshi is shy but protective like Inu but he is also openly kind like Kagome. Cho is slightly perverted like Miroku but she is a good fighter and is also very caring like Sango. I tried my best to make them slightly like their parents but also let them have a little of their own personality. I have to say my favorite character would be Yoshi, I like the name and he is a mix between Inu and Kagome, so he is InuYasha on the inside but he isn't as afraid to be caring towards people like InuYasha is. Sorry if I take a while to update, I just had a bath and about a billion ideas came to my mind for more fanfics, some one fics, some mid length and some long so yeah but I promise I'll try, Also someone asked me what Inu's job was, any one got ideas? I was thinking of making him a dog trainer for the fun of it but I'm not sure. R&R
EDIT: Idea! I have decided InuYasha is a cop or body guard or something in that line of work. Think about it, he's a sniffer dog and policeman all in one.
