Recap:

A nurse ran in. She pushed Kagome away from him and tended to Inu-yasha. Soon Kagome was alone in the now bright room. Inu-yasha, his bed…were gone. To the OR. (Operating Room) They had to sow the wound shut or it would kill him…a second time.

Chapter 26:

Rin took in a breath of fresh air. She had just finished eating lunch with Sesshomaru and now they were walking through the park hand in hand. Sesshomaru was deep in thought and so Rin was silent. The silence was annoying her though.

Suddenly Rin felt warm, soft arms wrap around her legs. She giggled as she turned her head to look at the small boy hugging her legs. "Rin!" "Hi! My gosh you've grown!" The little boy giggled as he let her go so she could kneel down. Rin kneeled down and gave the boy a hug.

"Who's that?" The boy quizzed as he pointed at Sesshomaru. Rin had almost forgotten. "Oh that's Sessy!" Rin said as she picked the boy up and stood. Sesshomaru looked at the boy in her arms then at Rin's face. She really cared for the boy.

Kagome brushed his silver hair to the side. He hadn't woken up from the surgery but he was going to be ok. Sighing she looked out the window. The nurse had just left. He would wake up any moment now. It was an hour after the surgery. His body shifted. She could tell he was in a lot of pain.

His muscles tensed as he opened his eyes. "Hey…" Kagome whispered as his eyes closed in pain. He didn't respond…Most likely because he was in to much pain. "Do you need anything?" Again no response. "I will ask the nurse to bring you some pain killer…ok?"

Inu-yasha didn't move. As Kagome's hand reached for the button to call the nurse. Inu-yasha's hand softly grabbed her wrist. "I…don't need…it…" He whispered. She could tell he was doing his best to stay strong. She thought he needed it but if she argued it would only stress him and give him more pain…

Kagome gave him a kiss on the cheek and held his hand. Inu-yasha tried to sleep but the pain wouldn't let him. The pain restricted him from doing anything other than laying there and waiting out the pain. His throat was throbbing. It was so dry. He needed a drink. Slowly lifting his only hand able to move slightly he tried to find the tray where a cup of water awaited him.

Kagome looked at Inu-yasha's slowly rising hand. It was heading towards the water. IT was shaking uncontrollably. Kagome gently put her hand on his and pushed it back on the bed. "You want the water?" She whispered. Inu-yasha was disappointed. He had wanted to get it for himself…He slowly nodded.

Kagome lifted the cup. Slowly she lifted his head so his dry lips met the cups rim. Slowly tilting the cup, the liquid poured down his aching throat. Pulling the cup away so he could take his time before another small sip, Kagome cried.

Inu-yasha's hand tightened on hers. Trying to hold the tears back she moved the cup towards him. The cup met his raised hand. Kagome slowly put the cup back on the tray. She was about to wipe the tears away but Inu-yasha was already wiping them away. His warm hand took away the cold tears.

Kagome smiled under his touch. He was in so much pain…She wished that everything was as it was before. Simple. But she had to be happy for all she had now…Inu-yasha, her loving boyfriend, Sango and Miroku, her best friends for life, Yura, Yuka, Eri, Ayame…all her other friends. Her little brother, Sota, her caring mother, her humorous grandfather…She really did have a lot…Including…

Inu-yasha's body stirred. Tensing up he attempted to sit up. Kagome placed her hands on his chest and gently held him down. "You aren't going any where in this condition." Kagome informed him. Inu-yasha sighed. This must've been the longest he just laid still with out talking, crying, or doing anything…

Kagome brushed the silver strands from his face so he could look up at her. His amber orbs were pleading to let him do something. Kagome closed her eyes before speaking. "Inu-yasha…The more you rest the quicker you will be healed…I understand your bored and want something to take your mind from the pain but there is nothing that wont cause you more pain. Don't bother arguing." She added the last sentence when he opened his mouth.

Inu-yasha stubbornly closed his mouth. Pouting at Kagome he thought of a way to get what he wanted…He held her hands in one of his before sitting up. Kagome couldn't pull her hands from under him, seeing as he was putting a lot of his weight on his one hand. Once sitting he leaned back and let Kagome's hands go. Kagome glared at his smirk as he closed his eyes in pain and relief.

"You want to injure yourself further?" Kagome scowled him.

"I have a tendency to endure pain better than most…I'm fine." Inu-yasha attempted to assure her. She wasn't convinced. Eyes closed she thought of a way to make him understand he needed his rest, that she needed him to heal quickly, that she loved him…

Kagome was blank. No ideas came to her. All she could do was await his recovery, and hope it came soon. Reaching for his hand Kagome opened her eyes. Inu-yasha was swinging his leg over to edge of the bed. "Inu-yasha!" Kagome hissed. It was the middle of the night so she knew not to scream. Kagome stood up and ran around the bed.

Inu-yasha let out a painful breath. Now all he had to do was stand up…Easier said than done. Just moving to the edge of the bed had hurt him…And had drained a lot of his energy. "Inu-yasha!" Kagome's harsh whisper met his ears.

Damn! Inu-yasha thought as he slid off the bed and stood. Leaning on the bed he came face to face with Kagome. Her chocolate eyes were weary but fierce. She was obviously mad that he had stood. "The pain is on my shoulders…my legs are fine." Inu-yasha whispered. Trying to find something to say…something to do to assure her.

Kagome stared at him. She just wanted to hug him. To feel his strong arms around her. But she couldn't. It would pain him. She let her eyes show it. How much she wanted his warmth on her body.

Kagome closed her eyes. A tear was threatening to burn down her cheek. Blinking away the tear and the threat she reopened her eyes. Inu-yasha smiled at her before pulling her into a tight, loving embrace.

Inu-yasha saw her eyes. Her yes pleading for him to hold her. He wanted nothing but to hold her. That she wanted him to hold her destroyed any doubt he had about it. He wrapped his burning arms around her waist and pulled her to him. Her body was cold against his. He tilted his head on hers as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Inu-yasha lifted his head. Taking one arm from her body he tilted her head up.

She was crying. She smiled as she looked into his confused, amber eyes. "Inu-yasha…Forgive me?"

Inu-yasha leaned down and softly kissed her tears. Once no tears streaked her face he kissed her warm lips. Pulling away he responded, "For what?" Kagome just hid her face in his chest. There was something she wasn't telling him…He would let it pass for now. All that mattered was that she was in his arms…A knock on the door broke them apart. Kagome helped Inu-yasha sit back down.

"Lay down. I'll be right back…" Kagome whispered into his ear. Inu-yasha nodded before leaning back and watching her leave him. He just realized how dark it was…

(A/Q/N authors quick note I going back to right after lunch with Rin and Sesshomaru!)

With Rin and Sesshomaru…

(Mini recap: "Who's that?" The boy quizzed as he pointed at Sesshomaru. Rin had almost forgotten. "Oh that's Sessy!" Rin said as she picked the boy up and stood. Sesshomaru looked at the boy in her arms then at Rin's face. She really cared for the boy. )

Sesshomaru looked into the boy's small hazel eyes. Rin looked over to the ice cream stand. "How about an ice cream?" Rin suggested. The boy grinned.

"Please!" Rin put the boy on the ground and let him run ahead to the stand. The man behind the stand smiled as the boy ran up to him and asked the flavors of ice cream he had. Rin took Sesshomaru's hand and pulled him to the stand.

"Hey…What's his name?" Sesshomaru asked as he was pulled to the ice cream stand where the boy laughed as he pondered which flavor he wanted. Rin stopped. She hadn't told him his name!

"Oh! Oops…His name is Shippou." Rin informed him. Sesshomaru nodded.

"What would you like?" The man asked. Rin looked down at Shippou. He smiled at her and Sesshomaru. He pointed at the vanilla ice cream sign. The man nodded and gave him a scoop on a cone. "And what can I do for you two?" He asked Rin and Sesshomaru. Rin was about to decline until Sesshomaru gently pushed her forward.

"Get her what ever she wants." He said simply. Shippou was happily licking his ice cream while he waited for Rin to decide what she would have.

"What about you Sessy?" He asked. Sesshomaru seemed to think about it for a little. He bent down and whispered something to Shippou. Shippou laughed and smiled at Rin.

"Are you two sharing secrets?" Rin pretended to be surprised. Sesshomaru stood up and turned her head back to the ice cream stand. "Fine…I'll have…a vanilla scoop just like his." she said winking at Shippou. The man nodded and got her what she had asked for. She was pulling out her wallet from her purse when Sesshomaru turned her around and pushed her towards a bench. He turned back to the man and handed him a five dollar bill.

"that should cover it." He said before turning back to Rin and Shippou.

"Sir! You forgot your change!" The man called as he rushed to get out Sesshomaru's change before he left. Sesshomaru waved a hand over his shoulder.

"Keep it." He said simply as He sat beside Rin on the bench. Shippou sat on the other side of Sesshomaru.

"Why didn't you get anything?" Rin asked Sesshomaru. He smiled at Shippou. Shippou covered his mouth so he wouldn't laugh. "What are you two hiding…?" Rin quizzed. Taking another lick from her ice cream she felt Sesshomaru's warm hand cover hers. She blushed as he pulled it to his mouth and stole some of her ice cream from where she had just licked it. Rin stared at him in shock.

"Because…You are going to share." He stated simply. Shippou burst out laughing. Rin looked at her ice cream then at Sesshomaru.

"I knew it was too good to be true." She joked. Sesshomaru smiled as Shippou calmed himself from the outburst. Soon they had finished their ice cream cones and Shippou had to go home and wash up. When he said bye he gave Sesshomaru a big hug, leaving some ice cream on his cheek. Shippou giggled as he gave Rin a second hug before running off.

Rin smiled at Sesshomaru. "Oh…you have some ice cream n your cheek…Maru-chan!" Rin exclaimed evilly. Sesshomaru smiled. Rin took a step closer. "Here. Let me get it off for you…" Rin wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. Satisfied that the ice cream was off his cheek she moved to his lips. "Looks like you…have some on your lips to…" giving him a big, passionate kiss she licked his lips for entry.

She felt his strong arms wrap around her waist. His lips opened for her tongue. She kissed him with all her feelings for him. There they stood. A couple. In the park. One November day. Saturday to be exact. In each others arms. It was around 5 in the evening.

Rin pulled away for air. Sesshomaru smirked down at her. Rin blushed and turned her head. Noticing the park was empty and the blue sky was shading. "Do you want to go back…to Inu-yasha?" Sesshomaru shook his head.

"I think Kagome wants to be alone with him right now." He whispered. Sesshomaru looked down. Rin was looking away. Her black hair was tinting bluish purple in the moon's new light. Hey body was shaking ever so slightly. She was fighting back the coldness. Sesshomaru smirked. He wrapped an arm around her shoulder. Slowly moving his arm to the middle of her back he swiftly placed his other arm behind her knees and pulled her from the ground.

Letting out a small scream of surprise as his warmth swarmed her. Rin was about to object to his sudden action. "Don't argue." He whispered as he walked back towards their college. Rin nodded and closed her eyes, listening to his soft heart beat.

With Sango and Miroku

They had spent the day at the hospital…In case of any emergency. They had spent the whole day speaking of when they wanted their wedding. They both agreed in the winter. "Late January? Or Early February…" Miroku yawned. It had been a long day…planning the wedding and worrying for their friends. Hoping they could find happiness as they had…

"Late January is best…" Sango said as she leaned her head on his shoulder. They were sitting in Kagome's old room. They needed to leave Kagome and Inu-yasha alone. "Let's go get some food for dinner." Sango whispered as she stood up. She offered Miroku her hands to help pull him up. Miroku didn't take her hands.

He stood on his on and looked out the window. "I have a bad feeling…Something bad is going to happen…soon." Sango gave him a worried glance before following his gaze out the open window. The forest behind them seemed…different. An unexplainable feeling sent a shiver down their backs as they turned and walked out of the room…

With Inu-yasha and Kagome…

Kagome stood and walked to the big, wooden door. Opening the door, she let some light flood into the room. No one was there. Kagome shrugged and turned back to Inu-yasha. She turned on a lamp to see Inu-yasha pulling on a new t-shirt. He had gotten on a clean pair of jeans and a new t-shirt from Miroku. He was fully dressed. Clutching his shoulder he smiled at Kagome.

"Let's go." He whispered to her from across the room. Kagome stared at him stunned. She looked from him to the bed.

"What…? Where…? You should be in bed." She attempted to organize her thoughts.

"We should get some dinner and go back to the dorm of course. We do have classes to go to." Kagome's eyes widened. Class. She had forgotten. She wouldn't pass this year if she kept this up.

"No. You should rest." She fought the urge to agree and walk out of the depressing hospital with him.

"I know you want to leave. This place is SO boring!" Inu-yasha complained. "You know what? You can stay here if you want…I'm leaving!" Inu-yasha turned and opened the door.

Kagome cursed. She hadn't noticed him edging towards the door. With a sigh she ran after him. "Inu-yasha!" She hissed as she ran into the hallway. Inu-yasha's warm arms wrapped around her and pulled her to his body.

"Sorry. I couldn't stand it in there any longer…" Inu-yasha smirked. Kagome sighed. She couldn't stay mad at him…For long. "Fine…Let's get out of here." Kagome mumbled as she turned and broke lose from his embrace.

Inu-yasha silently followed her. Something was different. She was probably just tired…But still…He would ask her later. For now he wanted to enjoy his time.

Kagome took a deep breath. With Inu-yasha behind her he couldn't see the tear streak down her cheek. Praying everything would turn out right. BVut she knew it wouldn't. If only she could be lucky enough to have one of her wishes come true. For everyone she cared for to be happy. Sango, rin, Miroku, Sesshomaru, Souta, her mother, all her friends, and Inu-yasha…If only Inu-yasha could be happy. But he wouldn't after she told him the truth…
