Chapter 5: Pretense (I Promise)
------------------------------
Will I always be there for you?
When you need someone,
Will I be that one you need?
------------------------------
Birds were chirping somewhere to the north. Sesshomaru could hear them, feel them. He slowly opened his eyes. Sun was trickling into the large bedroom in which he lay. He felt unbelievably warm and content.
A soft breath moved the hair on his cheek.
Sesshomaru looked down and the warmth and contentment had a name. Kagome. She was curled up on his side, breathing gently. She gave a small shiver. He looked around to try and find the source of her discomfort. It was apparent fairly quickly. The covers were a tangled mess around the footboard (they were sharing a pillow, where the others had gone, he had no idea) and neither had a stitch of clothing on.
Kagome's right arm was thrown over his chest while her legs were scissored in between his own. Her left hand grasped a fist full of his silky-fine hair. He, in turn, had his arms wrapped around her tiny waist, her head tucked under his chin.
Sesshomaru allowed himself to smile as he gazed at her. She must've transformed sometime during the night because her appearance was now somewhat similar to his.
Kagome's hair reached almost to mid-thigh and was slivery white, like his own, but it still held a bluish tent. Her bangs had grown out so that they framed her face.
Sesshomaru carefully pulled her hair back from her face to look for his royal symbol. And there it was. A purple crescent moon lay in the middle of her forehead. It was a lighter color than his own and slightly smaller, but otherwise it was identical. This mark not only proved that she was his mate and belonged to him, as the bit mark on her neck did, but it also showed that she was the Lady of the Western Lands and royalty.
He stared at the emblem for a time, before continuing his gaze downward. Since they were still naked, appraising her body was not a hard task. Her skin had taken on a glowing translucency, making her look pale and fragile. Her lips were fuller and had turned a striking red-blush color. Her eyelashes were thick, long, and raven black; her eyebrows also remained black.
Kagome's breasts were larger, and that was saying something as they had been large to begin with. Though, her nipples were still the same shell pink. Sesshomaru looked at her stomach, hips, and thighs, they too had filled out more, making Kagome look like some kind of sex goddess.
Her curves were more pronounced and picturesque, though her weight and height hadn't seemed to change. Her arms and legs were more defined and muscular, but were still very feminine.
The Lord of the Western Lands was currently parsing every god he could think of for his good fortune. Now they only thing he wanted was to see her eyes, but he wasn't about to wake her. Not just yet any way. He had kept her awake most of the night due to his insatiable need for her. Not that was the only one who was voracious. No... The way things were going he was sure that Kagome would wear him out. Not that he was complaining.
Sesshomaru leaned down and was about to kiss Kagome's slightly parted lips when he heard the sound of running feet outside his doors in the hall. He snapped his head up just as someone came crashing into his room.
------------------------------
Will I do all my best to, to protect you?
When the tears get near your eyes.
Will I be the one that's by your side?
------------------------------
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken yelled, running through the large mahogany doors with a bang.
"What, Jaken?!" Sesshomaru hissed pulling up the blankets on the bed, they only covered so much because they were helplessly twisted together. But he was not about to let Jaken see Kagome in the nude; her body was for his eyes only.
Jaken was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he stopped talking to gawk. His Lord rarely had a woman in his bed. In fact, if he wasn't mistaken, he had never seen Sesshomaru with anyone. And then he saw the sliver-white hair poking out from underneath the silk sheets that Sesshomaru had attempted to pull up. Good Lord, he thought, had his master mated with someone?!
"Jaken, is their some reason that you charged into my bedroom in the early morning? Or, are you just asking for sudden death?" He had kept Kagome up a long time last night and he wanted her well rested for the day...and the night.
"Oh, I, ah, yes, Lord Sesshomaru," Jaken sputtered, snapping back to reality. "It's your half-brother, my Lord, he is at the edge of the western territories and coming closer all the while. His companions are also with him. Apparently he is coming to get his miko."
Jaken had obviously not grasped the fact that the woman in Sesshomaru's arms was Kagome, so he did not realize his mistake until it was too late.
Sesshomaru's glare could have frozen hell. "You mean MY miko. Kagome is my mate, Jaken. She is to be respected."
"You mean that's her?!" Jaken looked as though he was going to have a hernia.
"Don't sound so shocked Jaken, and for god sakes, tell me what news you have of Inuyasha so that you can get out of my room before I dispose of you once and for all." Sesshomaru growled in a low whisper.
Jaken gulped. "Well, ten minutes ago two sentries reported that your half-brother and his companions were approaching the castle. They should be arriving in the next few hours."
------------------------------
Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your life?
------------------------------
Sesshomaru remained silent.
'So,' he thought, 'Inuyasha is attempting to "save" Kagome, is he? Foolish whelp. I wonder what those friends of his will say when I tell them that he attacked Kagome and that is the reason she is with me. Well, one of them anyway. But, knowing Inuyasha, he no doubt has neglected to tell them this vital piece of information.'
"Ah, Lord Sesshomaru?" Jaken asked hesitantly.
"What is it now, Jaken?" Sesshomaru answered in a bored voice.
"W-well, my Lord, what is it that you would have me do?" He steered clear of the topic of Kagome, knowing that he would probably face a horrible death if he were to give his opinion.
"See to it that Inuyasha and his company reach this castle without any interference. I wish for them to be brought to me in the throne room when they arrive." He stated firmly.
"B-but, Lord Sesshomaru! They cannot come into the castle! They are not worthy enough to be—"
"Are you questioning me, Jaken?" Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes.
"N-no, my Lord, I will see it done right away, my Lord." And with that Jaken turned tail and ran from the room, shutting the door behind him with a snap.
------------------------------
I promise, I promise
I promise I will...
------------------------------
-Inuyasha's POV-
I can't believe that I hit Kagome. I actually hit her. Oh, god, she'll never forgive me! And now she's with Sesshomaru, who knows what he's poisoning her mind with! But...that look that Sesshomaru gave me before punched me and everything went black...
It was a look of rage and of possession...possession of Kagome...
I can't help but think that maybe Sesshomaru is in love with Kagome. Gods, I hope not. If there's one thing that I hate most about Sesshomaru, it's his ability to make people do what ever he wants. Out of fear, loyalty, love... And no one has ever said no to him before, bar me.
I don't think that Kagome would have the strength to say no to him even if she wanted to. But, still, there is defiantly something going on between those two. What she said when I yelled at her for helping Sesshomaru. It was almost like she was defending a lover or something.
That's why I snapped. The way she was talking—okay yelling—at me and how she was standing up for my brother just made me so jealous. Then I smelled his arousal scent on her. That was the last straw and I lost it. Just the thought of Sesshomaru touching Kagome is enough to make me want to kill something.
And it's not just Sesshomaru, either. I'm jealous over every male in Kagome's life. I get resentful of Shippo for god's sake! It's kind of hard for me to love her, but being in love with her is even worse. I can't think straight when I'm around her, so how the hell am I supposed to tell her that my feelings go deeper for her than just my 'shard detector'? I always end up saying the wrong thing.
Then there's the fact that Kagome never tries discourage anyone. I mean its one thing to be nice and kind and another to not stick up for yourself. Okay, well maybe she does know how to stick up for herself. But the only person she says anything to is me! I'm not trying to justify slapping Kagome, but it's not completely my fault. Is it?
Kagome...I'm so sorry...
"Hey, Inuyasha." Miroku called, shaking me out of my moping.
"Yeah...what?" I answer duly. I'm too depressed to even snap at Miroku.
"Ah, are you feeling alright?" he asks.
"I'm fine, monk. Just like the last time that you asked." I shot him a glare and that seemed to shut him up.
The only thing I told them before we set out was that Sesshomaru had kidnapped Kagome. I sort of forgot to mention why Sesshomaru took her, but all the same. I'll deal with all that once I have her back...
-End POV-
------------------------------
Will I take tender care of you?
Take your darkest night
And make it bright for you?
------------------------------
Sesshomaru let Kagome sleep an hour more before calling her name in honeyed tones. He just couldn't help himself, every time he looked at her he wanted to jump on her and loose himself in her curvaceous body. So, he gently lay her on her back and spread her thighs, positioning himself between them.
Slowly, he slid into her, not daring to go too far. Her body responded immediately, her hips lifting and her thighs parting to accommodate him. Even in unconsciousness, Kagome knew that it was Sesshomaru above her.
"Kagome..." Sesshomaru gasped. He felt her vaginal walls tighter in answer to his call and he nearly came of the bed.
"Umm...Sesshomaru..." It was barely a whisper, but Sesshomaru heard it.
He plunged recklessly into her, stealing himself for the amazing feelings that he got whenever their bodies and souls joined...but as always, it blew him totally away. He didn't think that he'd ever be prepared for anything Kagome threw at him; sexual or otherwise.
Sesshomaru kissed Kagome's neck, then traveled down to his mark; sucking and biting, making sure that the skin around it would be very visible for the next few days. His hands didn't stay ideal either, his left was running over one of her breasts while the other was intertwined in her silken hair, both tugging her closer.
Kagome was fully awake now, writing in pleasure, and panting right along with him. She rocked her hips, slowly at first, then faster as their peaks drew near.
She opened her eyes and met Sesshomaru's heated gaze. Her eyes were now a strange mix of blue and gold. They began flashing amber as her orgasm grew near. And Sesshomaru found one more reason to love her. The look of desire and passion in her eyes almost made him come right then.
"Ah!" Kagome screamed, she was at the edge, just a few more thrusts from Sesshomaru and...
Kagome and Sesshomaru screamed each other's names as they came together. Their climax was lavish and seemed to go on forever...
"I love you..." Sesshomaru grunted as his seed continued to spill into her.
"...Love you...too...Sessho...maru..." Kagome gasped and pulled him down for a kiss.
They had been kissing for no more than a few seconds before Sesshomaru pulled away and ended it. He carefully pulled himself out of Kagome's body and rolled over onto his back beside her.
"What...?" Kagome asked, puzzled. She sat up to look down into his face.
"If I keep on kissing you, I'm going to make love to you again." He explained. And he looked as though he would like nothing better.
"And what's the problem with that?" She raised an eyebrow at him suggestively.
"The problem is that the half-breed and your friends are about"—he looked out the window and squinted at the sun, trying to estimate the time—"an hour and a half to two hours away from here."
"That's a very big problem." Kagome said uneasily, picking up a candy out of the bowl on the nightstand. She stuck it in her mouth and sucked on it thoughtfully.
"Indeed it is." Sesshomaru agreed.
------------------------------
Will I be there to make you strong and to lean on?
When this world has turned so cold,
Will I be the one that's there to hold?
------------------------------
"Inuyasha, will you stop brooding for five seconds and listen to us?!" Sango yelled, annoyed.
"I'm not brooding! Who says I'm brooding?!" Inuyasha snapped.
Everyone let out a sigh. They were almost to Sesshomaru's castle and they had yet to be warned away, attacked, or otherwise and everyone was worried. Well, except Inuyasha who had the common sense of an acorn.
"Don't you think it's odd that we haven't seen anyone—demon or human—that would pose a threat? We are in Sesshomaru's territory and if he has Kagome then he would want to keep us far away from her, but so far I have seen no evidence of that." Miroku told them wisely.
"It's definitely weird, I agree. But still, what if there's a reason that he hasn't sent anyone?" Sango peered at Inuyasha expectantly. "Well?" she said after a minute.
"Well, what?!" Inuyasha glared at her. He didn't want to tell them what really happened until after he had Kagome back safe and sound. Plus, he thought grudgingly, he had to apologize to her properly first.
"You were the last one with her, Inuyasha. Did Sesshomaru say or do anything that would give you the impression that he didn't want to hurt Kagome? The lax in security around his castle means something." Again she looked at Inuyasha for an answer.
"Feh." He turned away. "Sesshomaru won't hurt her." He said finally.
"How do you know?" Miroku stepped up beside Sango.
"I...I think..." It was hard to admit to himself, let alone his friends.
"You think what? Hurry up dog-boy, I want Kagome back!" Shippo said.
"I think that Sesshomaru is in love with Kagome." Inuyasha admitted quietly.
Everyone stared at him, mouths gaping open.
"What?! You asked what I thought and I told you!" Inuyasha shouted, crossing his arms and looking at the ground.
"So that's why you've been so put-out!" Sango gasped softly in understanding.
"It's a wonder that we didn't see this earlier." Miroku said. "I knew that your brother felt something for Kagome, but I didn't think it went as far as love. But I guess that it is possible. Kagome is a wonderful girl and she has very big—" Miroku was abruptly cut off.
Inuyasha growled and Sango slapped him.
------------------------------
Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your life?
------------------------------
"So..." said Kagome slowly. "What are you going to do?"
"Nothing." Sesshomaru answered shortly. He rose from the bed, naked as the day he was born, and made his way too the wardrobe closet on the other side of the room. He stopped in front of it and started digging around for something.
Kagome stared at him, still half sitting, half lying on the bed. "What do you mean nothing? What, you're just going to let them come into your territory no questions asked?"
"Yes..." He replied absently as he continued to look in the closet.
"But, why?" she inquired, aghast. Was Sesshomaru sick or something? The Sesshomaru she knew would never let Inuyasha anywhere near his lands! He had to be sick.
"Because I did not think that you would appreciate it if I had your friends killed. Now, if I could just find—ah... Here it is..." Sesshomaru turned around with a woman's kimono in his hands. He glided over to Kagome, but stopped suddenly; there were tears in her eyes.
He instantly and carelessly dropped the beautiful and expensive kimono to kneel before her. He grasped her chin so that she'd look at him.
"What is it, what's wrong?" he asked her concernedly. " I promise that I won't let any harm come to your friends...or the half-breed. So please, don't cry."
Kagome burst into tears and fell onto him, wrapping her arms around her neck.
"Kagome!" Taken aback, Sesshomaru's eyes widened. "I promise that I won't let—"
"It's not that! It's just that if my friends come here they'll want to take me away from you! They probably don't know what happened between Inuyasha and I and will assume that you have taken me by force! Oh Sesshomaru!" she sobbed into his naked chest. "I don't want to leave you! Not when every thing is so wonderful!"
Sesshomaru eased her away so that he could look into her eyes.
"Hey..." He whispered softly. "Don't worry, I wont let them take you away. We'll work it all out as soon as they get here. Okay?" he brushed his fingertips over her cheek lovingly. "Now, no more crying, it breaks my heart."
Kagome nodded and sniffed as she ceased crying.
"And in any event, do you honestly think that I'd let you leave? You're my mate, so we belong to each other now." Sesshomaru couldn't help but notice that even through her flushed, tear-streaked face, Kagome was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
She smiled sheepishly at him. "Oops...I kinda forgot." She giggled nervously and ran a hand threw her hand. A clawed hand. "AH!" She looked down at her hands. "I have claws! And my hairs white! I have fangs! Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!"
Kagome jumped up to inspect herself in the full-length mirror hanging on Sesshomaru's wall. She pulled and plucked at all her new features with wide anxious eyes.
"Breath, Kagome, breath. I told you last night that this would happen remember? This is part of the mating process." He came up to stand behind her. And after a minute, in which he let her gape opened mouthed at her new appearance, took her hand and slowly led her back to the bed.
"Mating process...right..." Kagome sat down again, taking long deep breaths. "Okay, I'm alright now. I was just caught off guard."
Sesshomaru's eyes twinkled with amusement. "I could tell."
"Oh, shut up." Kagome crossed her arms across her chest with an indignant look on her face.
"Really, Kagome, is that any way to speak to your mate?" He quirked an eyebrow at her.
She growled at him.
"Fine, if you're going to act like that I guess I won't give you your present." Sesshomaru picked up the previously discarded kimono and started back to the wardrobe. 'One, Two—'
"WAIT! I want my present!" She pulled the white sheet off the bed, held it around her, and ran across the room. "Present, present, present!" She chanted.
"That's it, no more candy in the morning for you."
"But that's not fair!" She pouted. Then she smiled slyly and continued. "Now give me my present or I'll never have sex with you again."
Needless to say, Kagome got her present.
------------------------------
I promise, I promise
I promise I will
Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your life?
------------------------------
"Sesshomaru is in love with Kagome." Shippo seemed to be the only one who was completely shocked by this piece of information. He looked like he was about to faint.
"Who cares, anyway, I know that I don't! Stupid wench...stupid brother..." Inuyasha grumbled. No one believed him.
"Well," Shippo said, wanting to make Inuyasha eat his words, "I guess it would be okay if they got together. I know that Sesshomaru wouldn't hit me"—he shot a dirty look at Inuyasha—"he'd just ignore me. Which is way better than brutally lashing out at poor unsuspecting fox demons in my book." Shippo, Miroku, and Sango shared a conspiratorial look.
"He is very respectable." Miroku concurred, hiding his smile. "A very good trait in a husband, if I say so myself."
Inuyasha twitched.
"I do have to admit that he is very attractive, he and Kagome look good together since they both hold great beauty. He is also a very calm and collected person. I think he would treat Kagome right, don't you, Miroku?" Sango said with a wink.
Inuyasha was steadily growing redder in the face and all three of them were waiting for steam to start coming out of his ears.
"I bet Sesshomaru would give Kagome anything that she wanted!" Shippo exclaimed. "He's a lord so I bet he has lots of money!"
"Oh, yes, and don't you think that they would have beautiful children—" Miroku suddenly found himself at the end a death glare from Inuyasha. He shut his mouth quickly.
"Meow..." Kirara caught Inuyasha's attention.
Inuyasha stared daggers at her. "You going to give your opinion too?!"
She gave him an incensed look.
"Come on, the castle is just above this hill." Inuyasha said shortly. He turned and started walking up the hill.
Everyone followed, smirking behind his back. They had done a good job, just enough to get Inuyasha thinking, but not enough to overdo it. Well, with the exception of Miroku...
"I really do think that they would have beautiful children—" Miroku was cut off once again, but this time not by Inuyasha, but by Sango.
She punched him in the head. Hard.
"Why is everyone so violent today?" Miroku groused as he rubbed his skull.
"Will you just shut up?!" Inuyasha said impatiently. "I...I've got something I need to tell you all before we reach the castle. You see, the real reason that Kagome left..."
------------------------------
I promise, I promise
I promise I will, Yeah
------------------------------
"Oh, Sesshomaru it's beautiful!" Kagome squealed as she patted down the front of her new kimono.
"No, you're beautiful. This outfit merely compliments that." Sesshomaru told her with all honesty.
Kagome blushed and giggled. "Why thank you, but I do have to say that you are looking very fine this morning as well, my Lord." She peeked at his nude body shyly.
"Ah, so you are finally learning your place." He ran his fingers over the bit mark on her shoulder.
"Not likely." she grinned at him in the mirror.
His mouth curved into a smile as he looked back at her. "I would not expect otherwise, love." His arms slid around her slim waist.
"Are you trying to say that I'm disrespectful?!" She gave a false gasp of horror.
"Oh, my dear, I would on no account say that. I'd be too afraid that my little miko would purify me." Amusement lit his beautiful amber orbs.
Kagome turned in his arms so that she could look into his eyes. "I would never use my powers against you!" Her tone became strained. "Oh, Sesshomaru, believe me when I say that I wouldn't ever hurt you! I love you so much!"
Tenderly, Sesshomaru caressed her cheek. "I wasn't suggesting that you would, love. I know that you would never harm me, as I would never harm you. We share a strong bond, you and I, and I know that nothing will stand in the way of it."
"Not that you would let anything stand in your way anyway." The graveness was lifted from her as she smiled happily at her mate once again.
"Of course not. And that, my love, my mate, my life...is because I love you, deeply, passionately, hungrily..." He found himself hard again. He had to have her. As much as possible if time permitted it.
"We still have about an hour, you know." Kagome whispered seductively as though she had read his thoughts. She ran her hands up Sesshomaru's bare chest.
"How astute you are." He took her hand and led her back to their bed. "I always knew you were smart, even if you pretend otherwise." He said teasingly.
"Shut up." She said, turning and falling onto the mattress softly, then pulling him on top of her.
"Whatever you say, dear." It was that last coherent thing he said before kissing her.
------------------------------
And I love you more every day
And nothing will take that love away
------------------------------
Thirty minutes later Sesshomaru and Kagome were waiting in the throne room for Inuyasha and his companions.
Kagome was pacing in front of her throne nervously, wringing her hands.
"Kagome, please, sit down before you fall down." Sesshomaru said, trying not to smirk. She was so cute when she was anxious.
"Don't you dare laugh at me Sesshomaru, I'm worried! What if Inuyasha acts well...like Inuyasha?! What if he just barges in here no questions asked and picks a fight? What if he throws a tantrum and starts attacking you? What if—"
"Damn, Kagome, I'm not that bad."
Kagome flipped around. Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara stood in the doorway. Jaken stepped out from behind the group and started towards Sesshomaru's side. Kagome just stood there mouth agape.
"How long have you been standing there?" she asked.
"Long enough to know that I 'throw tantrums'." He replied with an eyebrow raised.
Becoming embarrassed, Kagome took a step back and reached for Sesshomaru's hand, looking for comfort. He clasped her hand in his and moved forward slightly, intending to bodily protect her from being in an uncomfortable situation.
In turn, Inuyasha's eyes followed the movement, locked on Kagome and Sesshomaru's intertwined fingers, then traveled up to look at them standing together. He growled slightly, but otherwise didn't move.
And for the first time since arriving, he took in Kagome's new look. And he was stunned.
In fact, every person in the room seemed stunned. Even Jaken had shut up for once.
------------------------------
When you need someone
I promise I'll be there for you
------------------------------
-Inuyasha's POV-
Seeing them standing there together, I can see why she chose him. They fit. As much as I hate to admit it, I can't lie to myself any longer. It had only been a feeling before, but now...now I know for certain...Kagome and Sesshomaru are in love.
And I hate it, and it hurts me...but I...I'm not going to do a damn thing about it. I'm going to stop being selfish for once. I want whatever that beautiful woman with the amazing heart wants. Because...I love her too.
I don't know how I'll cope with the knowledge that my own brother is married to the woman I love, but I know that I will. Because, if truth be told, I want to see him happy as well. I know that Sesshomaru hasn't been in my life very much, and every time he was it was negative, but I do know him well enough that I can tell that he was hurting.
Keeping up his stoic façade was designed not to let others in, but it also keep him bottled up inside. And somehow I know...deep down inside that Sesshomaru is a good man...and could be a good brother.
So that's why I'm going to let Kagome go. For her, and for my brother. Because I love them both, and it's about time I set this right.
-End POV-
------------------------------
Will I be there when you call me in the middle of the night?
Will I keep the rain from falling down into your life?
------------------------------
Inuyasha broke the uneasy silence by stepping forward and kneeling in front of Kagome and Sesshomaru. He hung his head so that his bangs covered his eyes.
"Kagome...Sesshomaru...I—I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. For—for everything." Inuyasha whispered shakily.
Kagome looked up at Sesshomaru with a meaningful gaze. He nodded in understanding and released her hand. She walked to where Inuyasha was kneeling and sank onto the floor before him. She reached out and placed her arms around his shoulders, bringing him to her in a hug. His arms hung loose by his sides as she gathered him up.
"Kagome." Inuyasha whimpered. "I'm so sorry about what I—"
"It's alright Inuyasha. I forgive you." Kagome told him soothingly, with complete sincerity.
And just like that the weight seemed to lift off of Inuyasha's shoulders. He placed his arms tentatively around Kagome, returning the hug. They stayed like that for a long while. Then Kagome moved back and they released each other.
Inuyasha helped Kagome to stand up and led her back to Sesshomaru.
Cupping her hand, he placed into Sesshomaru's as he reached out. "She's yours now. I know that you'll take good care of her...brother." Inuyasha looked Sesshomaru in the eye, and for the first time, he saw an emotion in them that was beside anger and hatred.
"Inuyasha," Sesshomaru said slowly. "Thank you." And then he surprised the room, by sweeping both Kagome and Inuyasha into an embrace. "I love you Kagome...and I love you also little brother."
Kagome, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara burst out crying.
Inuyasha tightened his hold on his best friend and his brother. He leaned back to look at Kagome's face. "I guess this means that you're my sister now, huh?"
She giggled and pushed both men away. "Oh, no, now I'll have to deal with both of you overbearing dog-demons!"
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru exchanged a glance before sighing, "Women..." in unison.
And then the room broke out into laughter.

Epilogue: Family Reunion (You Set Me Free)
"I'm pregnant?! But—but how?!" Kagome shrieked.
"The usual way, I would think." Sesshomaru grinned.
"How can you make a joke out of this?! I'm pregnant for god's sake! Well the hell is in your sperm, anyway?! I got pregnant way to quickly for you to have regular sperm!" Kagome was going into hysterics now.
"Kagome, calm down!" He tried not to smile again, but he couldn't stop himself. "Kagome, we're going to have a baby—a child..."
Kagome's eyes filled with tears. And then she jumped onto Sesshomaru.
"We're having a baby! I'm having your child! I'm going to be a mother!" And she promptly fell apart, sobbing. "We—we're s-so lucky...!"
"That we are, my love, that we are..."

A little something extra -Dialogue-
Sessh: Ali, I love you like a fat kid loves cake!
Ali: Raises an eyebrow Really now.
Sessh: Oh, yeah. The first reason is because you updated and the second reason is because I got some booty!
Ali: If you're going to refer to making love as booty, then you might as well just say nookie. Nookie is a way cooler word.
Sessh: Is not. I prefer not to sound like a bad Limp Bizkit song, thank you.
Ali: Hey, if your biscuit's limp that's your problem, buddy, not mine.
Sessh: That's not what I said!
Ali: Sure. Whatever, Sesshy. Cough Can't get it up. Cough
Sessh: Growl You want me to prove it?
Ali: Go ahead, limpy.
Sessh: Throws Ali-chan over his shoulder and proceeds to storm into his dressing room. Once inside he shuts the door with a snap.
Ali: Hey! We hear a loud ripping sound That was my shirt! No—no, what are you—Ahh...Oh, god!
Scene: Two hours later, Sesshomaru and Ali-chan reappear, both sweaty, tired out, and well satisfied.
Sessh: Never say Pant that I can't Pant get it up Pant ever Pant again.
Ali: Don't worry, Pant I won't.
Sessh: He gives Ali-chan a weird look
Ali: What?
Sessh: I just didn't realize how kinky you are until now.
Ali: Me? Kinky? Na... Feigning innocence
Sessh: Raises his arm and looks pointedly at his left hand,a set of handcuffs are dangling from his wrist. Not kinky huh?
Ali: Oh shut up.
Ali: Now who got the booty! Excuse me, nookie. Haha. See ya everybody! Oh, go me, go me! Brushes shoulders off.
