Chapter 16


- Previously -

After the kabu was fed from Kagome, the bracelet with her name on it was placed on her little wrist, and was then taken away by the nurse to step aside. The second born was now placed into Kagome's arms, and was giggling happily. Kagome smiled softly and rubbed her nose against her kabu's to only be licked by the little one.

The kabu and red single stripes on both cheeks that were a little feminine, and her eyes were brown like Kagome's. Her hair was a silver white, with cute little inu ears, and a happy mood. She clung to her okasan and fed upon the milk that was given to her while Kagome smiled.

"Her name will be… Sato." Kagome smiled happily. (Name meaning: sugar. I plan to make her the hyper child; obviously.)

When it was time to remove Sato from Kagome, she created a big fuss, and didn't want to leave her okasan. Soon enough though, she stopped, and was placed in the bassinet like the other two names kabu as they came in. The first born was now given to Kagome to be fed, and it was Sesshomaru's turn to decide the name.

"Hidemi," Sesshomaru spoke, already knowing the name to call her. (Name meaning: excellent and superior…)
"You're going to favor her, aren't you?" Kagome laughed playfully in a light teasing way to the taiyoukai.
"…" He snorted.
She scowled at him and looked at Hidemi, "did you see what your otousan just did to okasan?"
"…" Hidemi snorted at her otousan and everyone laughed.
Sesshomaru growled, "Are you mocking this one?"
"…" The little one went back to feeding, completely ignoring her father.

- Now -


Kagome was told to stay at the hospital for two weeks and for two reasons even. One was that they wanted to make sure that all of the kabus would be okay since it was normally to lose one of the four quadruplets. The other reason was because they were so kawaii.

Right now however, it was night time, and it was the same routine as each night. Sesshomaru stayed the whole time while she was at the hospital, and wasn't planning on leave her and the kabu there alone. It was just as Kagome had said; it was his responsibility to watch over them, care for them, and be there for them. Though he couldn't, at least not now, things needed to be taken care of.

(For future information, Sesshomaru's armor and swords are at the Higurashi shrine in Kagome's room. Just letting you know this before anything starts to happen in the chapter.)

'This one should leave.' Sesshomaru told himself.

The taiyoukai was lying down silently on a fold up futon that the hospital had allowed him to sleep on which was unfortunately against a corner wall away from Kagome. For the past two weeks he was not given an ounce of sleep, and so all he could do was think the time away. He sat up on the bed and looked at the pups, then at Kagome, and he stood up to go to her side and woke her.

"Miko," Sesshomaru called out to her.
"Nh…" Kagome opened her eyes tiredly then jumped into a sitting position; afraid if something had happened to the pups, but saw Sesshomaru's standing form.
"This one must leave." He stated.
"Naze…?" The miko asked tiredly while rubbing her eyes.
"You had toldthis onethat things should back to how they were," he paused, "this one will do so by going after Naraku."
"Demo… the kabus…"

"You will take good care of them," the taiyoukai stated and began walking towards the door.
Kagome closed her eyes softly, "…iie…" she replied in a stern voice.
"…" He had his hand on the doorknob while his attention was on the door and not at her; hoping it would cause less conflict.
"Just one more night," Kagome stated, "we'll all leave tomorrow morning and go to my house."
His head shook, "this one should go now, it is best if this one leaves while the kabu are asleep."
"I demand that you stay," Kagome said sternly and he looked at her, so she softened and added, "…onegai… taiyoukai…?"

He looked at her eyes to see them look so hurt and abandoned that he looked away from her. Sesshomaru should have just left without telling her a thing, and then maybe he wouldn't have been in this predicament. Two cold and smaller hands lightly held his right arm softly, and he looked over to find Kagome out of her hospital futon to be at his side.

Sesshomaru looked away, "rest."
"Not unless you're here for the night," Kagome said irritated, "that kabus need a proper 'goodbye' from their otousan if he's just going to leave."
"After Naraku is slain, this one will return."
"We're all after him Sesshomaru, it's not just you! Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Kouga, and so many others are looking for him!" Tears began to fall. "It's not just you…"

Sighing with annoyance about the miko being upset, he escorted her to the futon he was provided with, and they sat down side by side. Kagome cried into his right shoulder and he did nothing about it. Sesshomaru only looked into the distance of the hospital room with distaste of it.

"This one will stay the night, since that is what you desire so greatly right now." Sesshomaru stated a little annoyed.
"Arigato Sesshomaru," she sniffled, "arigato."
"Once we arrive to the shrine, this one will take his leave."
"Wakatta…" Her arms around his right arm.
"Why is it you don't want this one to go?" He questioned while looking away.

"I've grown attached to you," Kagome whispered.
He chuckled, "do you cherish this one?"
"Why do you take other peoples' emotions so lightly teme…!" She yelled into his robe angrily.
His head nuzzled her to make her look at him, "this one was serious."
"Hai, of coarse I cherish you! I cherish everyone; you, Sato, Kichi, Hidemi, Chikako, Inuyasha, and everyone else too!"
"Ochitsuite," Sesshomaru demanded and she listened.

"I don't want people close to me, to just leave and go fight; most of the time they never return the same." Kagome whispered.
"This one is a taiyoukai; this one fights all the time." Sesshomaru stated.
"When this is over with Naraku, do you swear that you will return to see your kabus?" She asked softly.
"This one will come to check on them every now and then."
"Do you swear?" The miko asked again but with more stern.

"Hai, this one swears that he'll return to see the miko and kabus." Sesshomaru replied.
Kagome glared at him and released his arm to have her thumb pointed at him, "Puncture it."
"Nani?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Just do it," she demanded.
"…" Sesshomaru held her hand and bit her thumb with his fangs, causing it to bleed.
"Itte," she cringed and pulled away, "now, do the same to yours."
"…" The taiyoukai listened and bit his thumb.

Kagome took both of their bloody thumbs and placed them together to mix their blood with the other. The taiyoukai didn't quite understand what her intentions were since she entwined their hands after that and still had their thumbs connected. Looking at the miko, he found her already looking at him and gave a small grin on her face.

"Now I have you blood and words; I'm pretty sure you'll want them back when you return." Kagome taunted.
Sesshomaru grinned in a cold way that would always terrify Jaken and placed his lips to her ear and whispered with a growl, "ikeike."
"Arigato, I know I am," she winked.
"…" He growled and lowered her down to lay on the folding futon as he was.

Sesshomaru lied on his back and Kagome lied down on his left side with her head on his chest softly. It was just like those times back when he was injured, and she would listen to his heart rate. Kagome then frowned, and lightly clung to his robe.

"Oi," she looked at him, "you never told me why you rushed to the hospital, two weeks ago when I was going to through labor? It was barely ten minutes after I cried out for you." Kagome smiled lightly.

"This one heard your cry in the feudal era," Sesshomaru replied quietly while diverting his attention away.
"Nani…? Naze…?"
He mentally sighed, "This one isn't sure, but had felt an odd pain."
"Pain?" She sat up, "where?"
"It matters not."
"My butt it doesn't, where did the pain hit?"
"…"

Kagome glared at him as he still wouldn't give her any eye contact. Getting up tiredly, she got up for a minute, and sat on Sesshomaru's waist and straddled himwith her hands on his covered abs to keep her upper body propped up on him. The taiyoukai was a little surprised at what she do just to receive her answer; he was already aware that the gown she was wearing was the only thing she had on.

"Tell me now." Kagome glared.
The taiyoukai chuckled, "what could a ningen do to this one?"
"Are you tempting me now to do something?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Perhaps," he looked at her.
"Fine…"

She got up and walked around the room for something and Sesshomaru did not like the look in her eyes. The taiyoukai stood up and continued to watch her with keen eyes. Soon though, she grabbed a pair of scissors, and placed it at her wrist.

"Maybe I can't hurt you, but I can hurt myself." Kagome grinned.

Sesshomaru was at her side in a blink of an eye and removed the scissors from her hand with a growl. He tossed them away and looked at her angrily to find her still grinning at him. His hand asked for hers and she placed her hand in his, and he placed it on his robes.

"There," Sesshomaru gave her his answer.
Kagome looked a little confused, "your heart?"
"…" He nodded.
"I hurt your heart when I called out to you?" She frowned.
"Iie," the taiyoukai stated, "when you had called for me, this one felt sharp pain; telling this one that something had happened to you."
Kagome smiled, "I guess we know when we need each other."
"Hai," he bent down and kissed her.

Wrapping her arms around his neck, she lowered his head down so their faces would be close to each others. Kagome smiled softly to him and nuzzled against his cheek with her own. When she stopped, he looked at her, and saw that face of uncertainty that would always be there when he wished to touch her, or when she touched him.

"Gomen nasi," Kagome released him.
"This one will prove that he is better than the hanyou." Sesshomaru growled at her lightly to only see her smile.
"I know you are," she replied, "but I've been with him for so long, I can't just leave him."
"Hmm..." He licked her ear.
"Yamete-yo… onegai…"
He nodded, "let us retire, and leave in the morning."
"Hai," she replied softly.

Sesshomaru brought her over to the futon and they lied down tiredly together. The taiyoukai was again lying on his back while Kagome lied down on his left with her head –again- on his chest. Almost instantly, they two had fallen fast asleep, and the room regained its peaceful silence.


"Sesshomaru, stop being so overly protective, the kabus are going home to my room!" Kagome said annoyed.
"…" The taiyoukai growled.
"Okasan could only afford two baby carriages and their in the car! Souta and Jii-chan will hold the other two when she's driving. There isn't any room for us; we have to walk!"
"This one does not trust ningens." He scowled.

"I'm a ningen!"
"You're a miko."
"If it wasn't for ningens, the labor of the kabu would've been more painful and dangerous!"
"…"
"My family will take care of the pups on the way home, but it doesn't matter because you're going to the feudal era when you get there!"
"Fine!" He snarled; he had lost his patience with her yelling.
"…" Kagome looked scared and confused.

The kabus all began to whimper and cry at the fight between their okasan and otousan. Kagome walked away from Sesshomaru and went to the ones who cried while the taiyoukai stared at the tiled floor. He had not meant to yell so harshly at the miko, it just happened.

His gaze went over to her a little to see her okasan helping her comfort the kabus; both of them held two, and rocked them slowly for their cries to stop. Souta and Jii-chan came over and Kagome gave them a pup each. The three family members walked out of the room quietly and Kagome looked at him annoyed.

Her hand reached for his in the 'it's time to go' motion, he gave her his clawed hand, and they left silently. (Kagome's in regular clothes now; shirt and pants, yeah…) The two of them left the hospital and he felt Kagome's hand slowly slipping away from his, so he just released her, knowing that it was what she wanted. Still, there was an apology needed, and so he wrapped his right arm around her waist to bring her close to him.

"Gomen nasi," he whispered.
"…" Kagome didn't reply.
"Hontou ni sumimasen…" He nudged at her head.
"Yamete-yo," she removed her head away from his, but stayed in his arm.

"Kagome-chan!" Three girls yelled from the distance.
The miko sighed, "Shimatta…"
"Nani," he looked at her as she removed his arm away from her.

"Ohayoo Kagome-chan! Where are you going? There's school today!" One of the girls stated.
"Well, I just got out of the hospital, so I was going home for the day Eri." Kagome replied sheepishly.
"What happened this time!" Another said worriedly.
"N-nothing much Ayumi," she gulped.
"Miko, this one wants to leave." Sesshomaru demanded.
"Then go ahead and leave, but you better see the kabus before you leave." Kagome glared.

"This one will not leave you with-" Sesshomaru was interrupted.
"OH KAMI KAGOME-CHAN, WHO'S HE!" The last girl questioned loudly and the three crowded her. "IS HE ANOTHER BOYFRIEND! ARE YOU TWO-TIMING INUYASHA!"
"I-iie…" Kagome was getting a little nervous now. "T-this is Sesshomaru-sama… h-he's Inuyasha's older kyodai."
"HE'S SO KAWAII!" They screamed.
"Itte…" she covered her ears.

(They found out about Inuyasha's name in episode 159.)

"Kagome-chan, you should totally dump Inuyasha and go out with this guy!" Eri stated.
"…" Sesshomaru mentally smirked, 'at least they agree.'
"I should dump them both, their so troublesome," Kagome said sarcastically with a light sigh.
"Oi, he has weird close like Inuyasha, only different, almost like… feudal clothes…' Ayumi said curiously.
"Yeah… well… um… it's comfortable really, I wear feudal clothes sometimes." Kagome laughed.
"Hontou? I want to try!" Yuka teased.

"Miko, you need your parental vita-" Sesshomaru was cut off. (Vitamins…)
Kagome covered his mouth with her hand and shouted, "Baka!"
"…" He glared and licked her hand to piss her off.
"Yamete-yo!" She pulled away immediately.
"Now…"
"Wakatta-!"

"Kagome-chan, you're pregnant?" Eri yelled curiously.
"Iie," Kagome laughed nervously.
"The kabus will not feed themselves." Sesshomaru stated. (He's doing this all purposely so they can leave haha.)
"WAKATTA-!"
"You have kabus? When did you get an inu?" Yuka smiled happily.
Kagome blushed and yet was angry, "I'm not an inu; he is!" She realized what she just said, "shimatta…"
"…" They stared at her blankly.

The miko stepped back slowly and bumped into Sesshomaru's chest and looked up at him, "this is your fault."
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow and knew just how to win the last of their battle, "this one merely wants to say 'farewell' to his kabus as their miko-okasan said to."
"KAGOME-CHAN, WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT! IS HE EVEN A NINGEN!" The three yelled.
Kagome glared at him, "great, now I've probably lost my three closest friend, ikeike!"
"…" He glared and picked her up and hoisted her over his right shoulder.
"HANASHITE YOU DAMN BASTARD! IF YOU DON'T LISTEN TO ME I'LL-!" She then felt something. "Sesshomaru, ikimas! Kichi!"

Sesshomaru heard her say 'Kichi' and immediately used his demonic speed and arrived at the shrines quickly (they just left the three onnas, that's so sad). She was removed from his shoulder and they went inside. Kagome ran up the stairs and went into her room to see her okasan trying to comfort Kichi while the others were in the crib/play pen. (It's a two in one thing, I think.)

"Okasan, what happened!" Kagome rushed over.
"I don't know dear," Rei gave her the kabu, "she was just so upset so I thought rubbing her ear would satisfy her."
"The kabu will only allow that, from the ryoshin." Sesshomaru stated.
"Oh… gomen…" She apologized.
"It's okay okasan." Kagome stated.

Rei left the room for the two to be with their kabus since she knew Sesshomaru was going to leave. The taiyoukai stared at each kabu, one at a time, and went to Hidemi. His clawed hand went to her small cheek and caressed lightly with his finger.

Hidemi nuzzled against the finger then clung to it, but was forced to let go when it pulled away slowly. Sesshomaru then went to Sato who was fast asleep on her back, and poked her stomach softly; causing her to giggle in her sleep and place a smile on her face. Looking at Chikako, she was trying to crawl around but wasn't strong enough just yet, even so, he stroked one ofher ears and she shook her head and plopped her face into the futon with embarrassment.

The taiyoukai went over to Kichi who was in Kagome's arms, calming down from her crying. He placed a finger under her chin and she moved away and 'bit' him (no teeth yet). Kagome giggled lightly and saw Sesshomaru look at her intensely in the eyes, and so she placed Kichi down and looked at him.

He wrapped his arm slowly around her waist to bring her close to him and revealed –once again-, those hurt eyes of not wanting to leave her, and vice versa. Kagome smiled at him softly and brought her hands up and caressed his cheeks. His head lowered so that she could trace his face as she always did.

"Thanks to you, I won't be able to stay here so much; my friends might figure out that you're a youkai." Kagome whispered.
"This one doesn't mind if others know what he is." Sesshomaru stated.
She lightly laughed, "You don't live in this era, so of course you don't mind."
"Hai," he replied.

Kagome wrapped arms around his neck and hugged him as he hugged back. This wasn't a goodbye really, but they won't see each other for a while. What will the kabus think when they won't know their own otousan? Something gave her an idea and she pulled away softly; assuring him that nothing was wrong.

"I want to take your picture before you leave," Kagome stated and went to her desk to grab a digital camera.
"Picture?" Sesshomaru questioned at the newest word he learned.
"It's just something that stores memories of time," she grabbed it, "there's going to be a flash, just don't move." She requested.
"Hai," he replied and stood still.

The miko took a picture of him and smiled happily as she showed him the picture. More ideas filled her mind and went out of her room and called forth her okasan. When Rei came into the room, she curiously at the taiyoukai and her musume, wondering what's going on.

"Okasan, want to take a picture of me with Sesshomaru?" Kagome grinned with the digital camera in her hand.
Rei smiled, "I'd love to." (EVERYONE GOES INSANE WHEN TAKING PICTURES! ESPECIALLY PARENTS!)

Kagome told Sesshomaru to sit on the futon and he obeyed and she behind him with her arms wrapped around his neck, already smiling for the camera while Sesshomaru also turned his gaze to it and the flash again appeared. Rei took five more pictures, but they were with Sesshomaru hold a kabu in each, and one on the pictures was Kagome holding two as Sesshomaru held one and had Hidemi in his lap crawling to Kagome; trying to get away from her otousan.

When they were placed back in to the crib, Kagome stood up smiling happily at her okasan and was caught by surprise. Sesshomaru snaked his arm around her waist from behind and playfully nipped at the miko's ear, causing her to lean into his head giggling at how it tickled. Rei took a picture of that since Sesshomaru and Kagome were looking towards her direction and Kagome whined playfully at their cruelty. She left the two alone with the camera placed on Kagome's desk.

"Miko…" Sesshomaru called out.
"I want to take a picture of you with your armor and katanas." Kagome stated while looking at him.
He mentally sighed, "hai."

Sesshomaru placed the katanas at his side and placed his armor on as well as his mokomoko. Kagome took a picture and smiled happily then placed it aside, when she looked up to see him stand in front of her more closely. She blushed and took a step back to get some space.

"Well… I guess-" The miko was cut off.
"Kagome," Sesshomaru said sternly.
She looked at him confusedly. "W-what didn't you just say?"

The taiyoukai gave her a small kiss which soon turned into a passionate one. Kagome arms wrapped around his neck and he placed her against the wall. Their kisses were always slow and moving, like time could go as fast as it wanted, but the time they shared together was an eternity. After a while, Kagome released him and they stopped by her demands.

"What did you call me?" Kagome asked again.
He leaned over and kissed her forehead and whispered, "Aishiteimas, Kagome."
"…" Her eyes widened and looked at him.
"We willmeet again," Sesshomaru turned swiftly and left.


Lol, cameras! In Hidemi's mind, she was probably like 'ew! Tousan germs! Kasan! Save me!' -tries to craw desperately to her- lol.

I wonder who's going to be my 200th reviewer >> lol
