Chapter 4

"Hi...Sesshomaru," Ashiko tried to undo her mistake. All that was happening sofar, was a starring contest. Why is this human staring at me? As he began to slowly turn away, Ashiko called out his name. "Sesshomaru." Shit! Why did I have to call his name out? What am I going to say if he asks why I did it? "What do you want?" Sesshomaru asked in a not angry, but aggitated tone. "Well..." Ashiko tried to explain, "I wanted to apologize for bumping into you." That's it? Why are mortals so complex? "Forget it even happened," said the annoyed demon lord as he turned to leave. "I never will understand humans," he thought. "That wasn't so bad!?" her innerself screamed with joy.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Inuyasha, will you help me go get more supplies?" Kagome asked, knowing the answer beforehand. " What's in it for me? Do I get my precious ramen?" Inuyasha tried to say manly, but sadly failed. The two began to walk to the well when Inuyasha began a conversation. " Kagome, what exactly are you getting besides my ramen? I really don't want to stay there too long! No offence, but your era smells terrible." Kagome ran through a check list before she answered. " Well, since sango's baby is born, I thought we could get some diapers, baby formula, some of the babies neccesities, snacks, hygene products; just the everyday needs." she replied trying to remember everything exactly.

"Feh, whatever," the hanyou mumbled while looking at the old well. He didn't enjoy wearing that hat over his ears. To be honust, they irritated the hell out of him. Kagome gave him a smirk, as if knowing what he was thinking. This only prove to piss the half-demon off more than he was. The two began to walk towards the well, when Kagome took off into a run."What the hell are you doing Kagome?' Inuyasha, confused and surprised shouted. "What does it look like I'm doing dumb-ass? Beat ya to the well.." she shouted while sticking her tougue out childishly.

The hanyou took the initife(sp) to take off after her. He beat her, even with the advantage she had-all thanks to his demon heritage. "Oh no fair Inuyasha!" Kagome pouted when she got there, "Just because you have super human strenght, doesn't mean you can cheat!" He just gave her his trade mark "I don't give a damn" smirk.

He wrapped his arm around her and jumped into the well. The all to familiar pink light engulfed them, as they traveled five hundred years into the future. In one leap they both were out of the well house and on thier way out the doors. Inuyasha stared in amazement at how Kagome's time looked. He wouldn't believe this was the future, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. "Inuaysha, go inside the house, and get your hat," she told him out of precaution, "I'll get my money and purse." she added more to herself than him.

Kagome came down stairs to find her mother and Inuyasha having a conversation. She couldn't exactly hear what was going on, but she knew it was about her. The only part she could catch was her mother saying she wanted many grandchildren. Maybe they're talking about the future...

-----------------------------------------10 minutes earlier, while Kagome's getting ready---------------------------------------------------------

"Inuyasha, what do you and Kagome plan to do in the future?" Mrs. Higurashi began. She had caught the hanyou off guard. He seemed in deep thought after the question was asked. "Well...I mean," he stuttered for the right words, "I plan on asking Kagome to be my mate." he answered honostly. Mrs. Higurashi gave him a warm welcoming smile. "I knew one day you two would end up together,"she happily replied, " and when you finally do ask her, you have my blessing.When do you plan on asking her?" Inuyasha's head shot up at that question, "Well, acually, I planned to do it tonight." "There's one thing though, I want lots of grandchildren," she then slitly whispered where only he could hear her, "with those adorable ears of yours!" Inuyasha gave a nod of understanding, when Kagome walked into the room.

-------------------------------------------------Present-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mama, Inuyasha and I are going shopping for supplies, we'll be back by dinner time," she annouced while hugging her. Her mom just smiled, knowing what would unfold within the next few hours. The two began walking out when Kagome slapped her forehead. "How could I forget," she groaned. She made her way back into the kitchen where her mother was sitting at the table sipping tea. "Mama, happy birthday!" she exclaimed. Her mother was now 40 years old, but she looked 30. With that done, she continued on her way with Inuyasha.

"So...what were you and my mother talking about?'' she insisted, poking him on his chest. "What do you mean?" he lied. "You were talking about grandchildren,'' she teased. "So what if we were? You'll find out later." he pushed the subject away like batting a fly. "Well fine," Kagome muttered, "be that way; don't tell me. " I won't," he mocked.

They were so on the verge of an all out fight when Kagome's friends, Eri, Yumi, and Yuka called her. Kagome turned around to see her best friends in the modern era walk up. "We haven't seen you lately," Yumi exclaimed. "Yeah, after your mother said you were going to be home schooled, we haven't heard from you either," Yuka added. "Is your rib cage doing alright? Your brother said you were going to school, but you fell down the shrine stairs." she worridly mentioned.

Kagome was about to die. So they finally had run out of excuses. "Umm, yeah, it was painful, but now it's only a little sore," she put their fears to rest. Inuyasha just stared in astonishment at how kagome had come up with those quick lies. He had to wonder if she's lied to him like this before. "Kagome, who's the guy?' Yuka asked. She may look like a nice, sweet innocent girl, but she was acutally a girl counterpart of Miroku. Sort of scary if you thought of the relations.

''Well, this is my boy-friend," she confessed. "Is this the two-timing arrogant bastard you talked about before?'' Eri teased. "Yeah..but he's not that way any more." Inuyasha was giving her a what the fuck is going on look. "Well sorry I have to cut it short, but I need to go get a few groceries and go to the doctor," she smoothly lied while giving each friend a hug good bye.

When they were far away, Inuyasha demanded to know,"what was all that about? Why do they think I'm a two-timer?" Kagome just gave him a look that said it was a very long story. Inuyasha hated long stories, so he dropped part of his accusations. "They don't know I go to the fuedal era, so my family tell them that I am sick. that's how I;ve been missing so much school. But apparently, they ran out of excuses, so they said I fell down and broke my ribs. A little to drastic if you ask me." He nodded his head in agreement. By the time Kagome had finished the half of it, they were entering a store.

Kagome went strait to the baby isle. She found new born diapers. They were the perfect size, so she grabbed three packs. Next she grabbed the formula. She only got two things, because they were heavy.She grabbed two bottles, one had little puppies on it, and the other had kittens. they were just to adorable to resist. Inuyasha just stood behind her holding the diapers and formula. She began looking at the clothes. When done she had a total of five out-fits. They had a variety of colors, and two were footies. She found the perfect little kimono with sakura blossoms lining the collar and bottom of it. The last items were two rattles and two blankets. She then paid for the items and Inuyasha carried them through the nest store.

In the grocery store, she found the ramen, water, chocolate, and drinks that every one liked. as she got them, she checked them off of the list. The walk home was alittle longer than usual, due to the stuff. "Kagome, is all of this stuff really necessary?'' Inuyasha began to complain half way to the shrine. "Yes," she replied. "You want your stuff to feel comfortable...right ?" After that there was no more talking between them. they kept their minds focused on the items in their arms. When Inuyasha walked through the door, he set everything on the table.

The sun would be setting in about fourty-five minutes. Kagome's mom was already preparing dinner. "Did you find every thing you guys needed?" she asked while stiring the beef broccolli sause. "Yeah, no trouble," Kagome explained. She was begining to put everything in a cordinated pile by the door for in the morning.

After she had finished, she went in the living room, to find Inuyasha watching tv on the couch. "Hey, mind if I sit here?'' she asked a little tired. "No, why?" he responded in a gentle voice. As she sat down, he put hisarm aroung her as they watched an anime on tv. It was one of Kagome's favorites, Black Blood Brothers. It was about vampires, and a divided blood thing. She hadn't seen the show in a long time, so she had forgotten some of it. What she never for got, was her favorite character. He was a vampire that wore a red over coat and a matching red hat, that looked like a witches. He had an adorable little brother, that didn't like to dop as he was told. He was troublesome.

Right when the show had ended, Mrs. Higurashi called everyone in for dinner. They ate in comfortable silence, when Sota began telling about his day at school. He had had a big math test today, and got a perfect score. It was hanging on the refrigerator. Everyone was so proud. He had planned on going to college to be come a doctor one day. Inuyasha then informed Mrs. H that he would do the thing they were talking about after dinner when every one was asleep. This only angered and frustrated Kagome to no end. She would find out eventually, but she couldn't wait.

Dinner had ended too slow for Kagome's liking. Every agonizing minute felt like hours. Her mom had out done her self, the meal was wonderful. Every one piled into the living room to watch a disney movie that was on. They were watcing Beauty and the Beast. Itwas one of Kagome's favorites as a child. She only hoped one day she could have kids of her own that would get to see it one day.

The movie ended and it was already 9:35. Every one was sleepy this night. Kagome gave her mom a hug and said good night, she did the same for Sota. Inuyasha told every one good night a n headed for Kagome's room with her in tow. Once they were in the room, Kagome went to the bathroom with her pajamas in hand. Inuyasha got undressed and put on a tank top and boxers. He was finished by the time Kagome had come out of the bathroom.

"Kagome...," Inuyasha tried to begin. She turned her head to see what he had wanted. "W..wi...will..you...be my mate?" he said the last part as fast as he could. ''WHAT???" exclaimed. "Did you just say what I think you said?" she questioned, unsure if she had heard right. "Will you be my mate?" he repeated with out stuttering this time. "OH INUYASHA I WOULD LOVE TO!" she screetched while jumping up and down. She ran over to him and gave him a sweet kiss on the cheek. "I can't wait to tell Sango!" she added as she stood embracing him. "I take that as a yes," he smirked. " Well yeah it's a yes!"

Mrs. Higurashi heard her daughter screaming in happiness. She would have to congradulate the lucky couple in the morning. I wonder if my grand children will have those cute doddy ears? she wondered before drifting off into dreams.
