Disclaimer: i don't own Inuyasha

Last time:

"Shippo watch over your brothers and sisters while I tend to your mother" Inuyasha said as he kept moving with his arm around Kagome's waist while leading her up the stairs.

"yes father" Shippo said quietly as he watched Inuyasha lead a now dazed Kagome upstairs

This time:

Shippo walked over to the play pen and stared down at his brothers and sisters they were now sleeping as if nothing had happened. Shippo stared down at them more closely in a couple of weeks they would be almost as tall as him and then he would be there new chew toy to build up their strength on. Inu demons even at a young age try to build up their muscles without even realizing it the Inu breed can't stand feeling powerless that's why daddy gets angry a lot when Mommy won't get better, I promised not to tell daddy that mommy is really covering her illness up with perfumes and 6 hour medicines that way he won't worry, but why does mommy want to hide that scent she's allowed to be sick for a few weeks. Why? Shippo thought as he thought back to earlier today when he came to see how Kagome was doing.

Earlier today

"mommy are you awake?" Shippo asked as he opened the door to Kagome and Inuyasha's room.

"S.Shippo!" Kagome said surprised. Kagome had a bottle of her scent ((really it's just perfume)) in hand and was spraying it on while sitting at her vanity looking herself in the mirror.

"Mommy you should be out of bed? And what are you doing?"

"Shippo don't tell Inuyasha about this okay he doesn't need more to worry about with me, his only concern should be the pups and being a father. Okay Shippo you won't tell Daddy about this will you? Promise me." Kagome said as she turned towards him and stared him in the eye

"No mommy I won't tell I promise" Shippo said as he walked in more and closed the door

"good boy thanks Shippo, Your father doesn't need anything else to worry about now that things are calming down okay." Kagome said as she downed some Motrin with a glass of water and placed cream on her face to make her pale face healthy looking again.

"Mommy how'd you do that you look like your all better" Shippo said with a grin thinking his mother had actually healed herself

"I just made myself look like I did. The Motrin should lower my fever and the perfume should get rid of my sick scent from Inuyasha." Kagome said with a smile as she stood up but swayed a bit and grabbed her head with one hand and the the vanity with the other to steady herself.

"MOMMY" Shippo said in a worried voice as he held her leg

"it's alright Shippo just got up too fast is all come on I'll make you something to eat are you hungry?" Kagome said with a smile like it was nothing

"NO I'm not hungry but Mommy please go lay down Daddy isn't here he can't worry about what he doesn't see lay down and when he comes home then get up please rest" Shippo said with tears in his eyes as he hugged her ankle

"alright Shippo I'll rest till Inuyasha comes home." Kagome said as she picked him up off her leg and kissed his forehead "Don't worry Shippo everything will be fine but if I'm going to rest you have to watch your brother and sisters okay." Kagome said as she waited for his response. Shippo nodded vigorously and Kagome smiled as she placed him back down on the ground and walked back to bed and laid down and soon was fast asleep.

End of Flash back

Should I keep that promise mommy could make herself worse by acting like she's fine, she seems to take a turn for the worse with all this stress is probably being added to her illness. I don't know if I should keep this promise I'm gonna have to think long and hard. Shippo thought as he looked up the stairs to see Inuyasha and Kagome's solar lamps shine down the steps he could see Inuyasha and Kagome's shadows he was holding her tightly as she shook.
