Sesshoumaru watched as the cook prepared food for Kagome. "Hey why did you let that old hag live?" Inuyasha asked Sesshoumaru.

"Not that I have to explain myself but her grandmother may be of some use to me." Sesshoumaru told him.

"Do you know who killed Kagome's parent's?" Inuyasha asked him.

Sesshoumaru smiled at his brother."Of course I do." Sesshoumaru said as the cook finished making the breakfast.

"Who?" Inuyasha asked.

"I did." Sesshoumaru told him.

"Wait, how does she not remember?"He asked.

"Kagome and Rin were young, they must have blocked it out." Sesshomaru told him. "Understandable." Inuyasha told him. The cook handed Sesshomaru Kagome's breakfast and Sesshomaru walked back up the stairs and into their room. Kagome had done showered and was now dressed. She was sitting in front of a mirror, brushing her hair. Sesshomaru sat the plate down on the table in front of her.


"Eat and then we can leave." Sesshomaru told her. Kagome placed her brush back inside the drawer and began to eat her breakfast while Sesshomaru showered. When Sesshoumaru was finished showering, he got dressed and walked back out into the room. Kagome was done with breakfast, the only thing that was left was a half piece of bacon.

"Let's go Kagome." Sesshoumaru said to her. Kagome stood up and followed Sesshoumaru out the bedroom . She didn't say anything as they walked down the stairs.

"Leaving?" Inuyasha asked.

We'll be back in a few hours." Sesshoumaru told him . Kagome kept her head down.

"Ok I'll call you if something comes up." Inuyasha told him.

"Where are we going?" she asked once they were in his car.

"Shopping for baby items." he told her.

"But I'm not pregnant." she told him.

"Not yet." he said as he drove down the street.

Kagome looked at the many buildings and humans on the street. "Thank you for not killing the humans.": she said to him.

"I did it for me not you." he told her as he saw the baby store come into view. He parked in the parking lot and got out. Kagome got out as well.

"Don't try anything." he warned her.

"If I behave, will you try to be a little bit more nicer to me?" Kagome asked him. "Yes." Sesshomaru told her as they entered the store. "You better put on a good show." Sesshomaru warned her. "What do you mean?" Kagome asked him. "Act like we love each other, it is a family store." Sesshomaru told her as he grabbed her hand. Kagome removed her hand from his, only to wrap her arm around his. Sesshomaru gave a slight nod to her actions. "What room is going to be the nursey?" Kagome asked him. "How about Rin's old room?" Sesshomaru asked her. "That's perfect, it's right across the hall." Kagome told him.

"Can we look at cribs and bedding first?" Kagome asked him.

Sesshomaru nodded his head. "Maybe, if he stays nice to me and I behave, things wont be as bad as I thought."

Kagome thought to herself as Sesshomaru and her started to walk down the isle with the cribs. "They don't come with a mattress?" Kagome asked him. "No, just the crib it's self." Sesshomaru told her. "The mattresses are on the other side of the store." Sesshomaru said to her. "So what are you wanting? A boy or a girl?" Kagome asked him.

"I could care less, I just want one." Sesshomaru told her as he looked at a dark oak heavy adjustable crib set.

"Um, Sesshomaru why didn't you tell me that you wanted one, all those years ago?" Kagome asked him. "I didn't get the chance." Sesshomaru told her. All of a sudden, Kagome started to feel bad for leaving him in the first place, she shock the nasty thoughts out of her head. "What if I would have stayed?" Kagome thought to herself.

Kagome looked at the crib Sesshoumaru had picked out. "I think this will do just fine whether it is a girl or boy." she said to him.

"You like this one than?" he asked her.

"Yes." she said.

Sesshoumaru waved one of the sales people over. "Yes sir?" The man asked him .

"I want this delivered to my home no later than tomorrow." he told the man.

"of course sir why don't you finish getting what ever you need and I will start the paperwork." he told them.

"One thing I am sad about is that my kid will grow up with out a mom like Rin and I did, but least they still have their daddy.

"Kagome said as she looked at some lamps.

"I'm sure Naraku wont let them forget you." Sesshomaru told her.

"You really think so?" Kagome asked him.

"Yeah, I would never let my children forget the person who ran out on them." Sesshomaru whispered into her ear. "It's really hard for you to be nice, isn't it?" Kagome asked him. Sesshomaru smirked. "No mater what he says, it will not get to me." Kagome thought to herself.

Kagome walked away form him and over to the stuffed animals. She watched as a young girl no more than 16 was looking for things to buy Kagome could tell the girl was alone. Kagome walked over to her.."Hi you need some help?"Kagome asked.

"Oh I do I'm rasing her by myself."she told Kagome.

"Oh well then how about this pink bunny."Kagome suggested as she handed it to her. "What's your name?" Kagome asked her.

"Eva." she said.

"Well Eva, I'm Kagome." she said as Sesshoumaru walked over to them.

"What are you doing?" he asked her.

"I'm helping Eva she's having a baby girl." she told him.

"I didn't come here for you to help a pathetic human." He growled. Eva backed away.

"I'm sorry, I was just trying to be nice." Kagome told him.

"Lets get something straight. We do not talk to humans. If I catch you talking to a worthless human again, you will be punished." Sesshomaru told her.

"Yes Sesshomaru." Kagome told him.

"Good, lets finish up here, I have to make a few more stops before we go home." Sesshomaru told her. "Okay." Kagome responded

Kagome smiled at Eva before leaving. After picking out everything for the nursery Sesshoumaru and Kagome left. Kagome rubbed her eyes how was she not suppose to talk to humans and they were in the house as servants, her grandmother was a human for god sakes. Kagome looked at her hand she realized she still had her wedding ring on .she smiled when she thought about how nervous Naraku was when he had asked her to marry him. Sesshoumaru smelt the change in her scent and he looked out the corner of his eye to see what she was so happy about, he looked at her left hand and saw the ring.

"Take it off." Sesshomaru told her as he handed her a thin silver chin necklace. "Put it around your neck." Sesshomaru told her as she took her wedding band off. Kagome took the necklace and slid the ring through it. She then brought it up to her neck and clasped it. "The only time you are not allowed to wear it is when we have sex." Sesshomaru told her. "I think that is only fair, thank you." Kagome told him.

"Are you going to keep me in the bedroom forever?" she asked him

"No but for now that is where you're to stay. he told her. Sesshoumaru stopped in front of the jewelry store and got out . Kagome sighed she had a feeling this was going to happen sooner or later. ""We're not married." she said before they walked in the jewelry store.

Kagome only rolled her eyes. "And what makes you think that I want to go through an actual wedding?" Sesshomaru asked her. "I just thought that since you stopped here." Kagome told him. "If we were to get married that means that you would have to file for a divorce, means more paper work, and people we get into our business." Sesshomaru told her. Kagome sighed.

"Pick you out any ring you want, I don't care about the price, but you have to were it on your left ring finger at all times." Sesshomaru told her.

"Any ring?" Kagome asked him. Sesshomaru nodded his head.

Kagome looked at the rings she saw rare blue diamond ring.

"Can I see that one please?" Kagome asked the lady. The lady nodded her head She handed Kagome the ring kagome looked at it,

"How many carats? she asked.

"24 carats." The lady told her. Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru.

"Is this the one you want?" he asked her.

"Yes." she said. Sesshoumaru handed the woman his credit card. Sesshoumaru took the ring and placed it on Kagome's left ring finger. The lady handed Sesshoumaru his card back the two left the store. Sesshoumaru held the car door open for her. Kagome got in and sat down. Sesshoumaru got in the car and drove back home.


Inuyasha and Yura were sitting on the sofa. "I'm hungry Yura said.

"Go down in the basement their are plenty of humans in the basement." Inuyasha said,. Kagome gasped ."You're still killing them!" she yelled

Sesshomaru cupped his hand over Kagome's mouth and carried her up the stairs kicking and mumbling. He carried her into their room and sat her down on the bed.

"Why do they have to die?" Kagome yelled. "It's just the way the world works!" Sesshomaru yelled back. Kagome walked over to the desk that still sat on the table in front of the mirror. "Yea, well your world is so fucked up!" Kagome yelled as she picked the plate up and bashed it over is his. Sesshomaru growled.

Sesshoumaru grabbed her by the arms and threw her on the bed. "Stop acting like this your own father was a vampire how do you think he survived!" he yelled at her. "You're not my father, and my father didn't hate humans you do, you don't love me you only want me because of my bloodline!" she screamed.

"You didn't give me the bloody chance to fucking fall in love with you!" Sesshomaru yelled. "But I do have strong feelings towards you." He calmly told her.

"Your a liar." Kagome told him. "You do nothing but hurt me and take me away from my children." Kagome whispered.

"I will make you a deal. If you promise not to break any more plates on my head, control your temper, and to act like you don't care about the humans that are in the basement, then I will let you see your children in a few weeks, but you have to obey." Sesshomaru told her.

"Are you serious? That's all I have to do to see my children?" She asked him. Sesshomaru nodded his head. "Oh, then you got your self a deal." Kagome told him
