Kouga sat with Rosaline asleep against him for another ten minutes before Kagome and Sango entered the room quietly. "How is she?" Sango asked.
"Sleeping."
"No, I'm awake," she whispered, her yellow eyes fluttering open as she shifted slightly, moving becoming easier then it was before. Both girls sat on the bed beside her, Kagome taking her hand gently. "You…should see the other bitch," she whispered weakly. "What I wouldn't give for just morning sickness right now. That I can deal with." Kouga chuckled. Even after being sliced open by a demon, she was still a smart ass. Inuyasha and Miroku came in then, Inuyasha barking at her about getting her skinny little ass in trouble all the time. Miroku smiled and rolled his eyes at him and sat down beside Rosaline on the bed.
"Are you sure you're alright?"
"I'm tough, Miroku. Me and the baby are both tough." Kouga smiled and nodded in agreement, kissing Rosaline's cheek.
"My girls are tough," he whispered.
"Girls?" Inuyasha snapped. "How do you know that the baby's a girl. It could be a boy for all you know."
"Because a mother knows, Inuyasha," Kagome snapped.
"Right Kagome," Kouga said. "And a father knows not to disagree with a pregnant female if he knows what's good for him."
desperate for changing
starving for truth
closer to where I started
chasing after you
Kouga was lying awake long after the others had gone to bed. Rosaline was sleeping next to him, her head on his shoulder and her hand resting on his chest her breath warm against the skin of his neck. He kissed her forehead and she shifted slightly but otherwise ignored the action. He was glad. She needed her rest.
I'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
He kissed her again, his hand resting on her belly, feeling the slight movements of his baby daughter under her skin. He found himself worrying again, thinking about what would have happened if the cut across her abdomen had been deeper. Rosaline had told him not to dwell on that, but he couldn't help it. He told her his intentions of staying with her for the rest of the pregnancy. They would make the decision of what to do after the baby was born later. After all, they still had five months.
forgetting all I'm lacking
completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
you take all of me now
I'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
and I don't know what I'm diving into
just hanging by a moment here with you
"I love you," he whispered to her and her eyes fluttered open.
"I love you too," she whispered back and he chuckled.
"I thought I told you to go to sleep."
"I was asleep. You woke me up."
there's nothing else to lose
there's nothing else to find
there's nothing in the world
that could change my mind
there is nothing else
there is nothing else
there is nothing else
desperate for changing
starving for truth
closer to where I started
chasing after you
He smiled gently at her. She closed her eyes, falling asleep once again. He watched her sleep, until he himself was asleep. Things would be fine. They loved each other and that was all that mattered.
