35- Shocking Surprise

"Kagome, calm down. It's over now." Inuyasha said softly as he sat with her on the soft couch in her living room. Tears were in her eyes as she thought about what both Naraku and Inuyasha looked like during their fight. They had been terribly bloody and Inuyasha would not stop his assault.

"No!" She shouted, clearly angry with him. Sure, she was extremely grateful that he had saved her from being taken once again by Naraku, but she had told him to wait before beating him up. The truth was, she was afraid. She was terrified of the thought of Inuyasha being hurt, and possibly killed, by Naraku. And she was also scared that he might beat Naraku up so much one day and that you wouldn't be able to stop himself and accidentally kill him. "Don't tell me to calm down!"

Inuyasha sighed. "Look," he said tenderly, placing a bloody hand on her shoulder. He had not had much time to clean himself up since Miroku had just dropped them off. "I know you're worried. But I have everything under control. You just need to trust me."

"Under control?" Kagome practically shrieked. She had stood up and was glowering down at him. But he could see the fear in her eyes. "Oh, yeah, you sure had it under control back there, didn't you?"

"Yes, I did." Inuyasha answered, thinking that she meant the whole 'Naraku isn't going to hurt me' thing.

"No, you didn't!" Kagome shot back, confusing Inuyasha. His questions were soon answered when she said, her voice much softer this time, "You wouldn't stop. You just kept hitting him. Over and over, even when I told you to stop."

He saw that a shudder coursed through her body and he rose to his feet and wrapped his arms around her. "It's all right, Kagome. I was just really pissed off because I kept thinking about how bad he hurt you. I didn't want him to do it again. I don't know what came over me, but I'm sorry about it, ok?"

Kagome nodded her head where it lay, against his muscular chest. "Yeah. I…guess I understand."

He placed his bloody hand on her chin and brought her face up so he could gaze into her eyes, which were full of skepticism. His lips met hers in a passionate kiss that lasted for only a minute before Kagome felt a searing pain in her ribs and winced.

Inuyasha, feeling her sharp movement, instantly pulled away, concern etched in his face. His voice was soft when he asked, "Is something wrong?"

Kagome said, "My ribs are still a little sore."

"Oh. Did I hurt you?" He wanted to know. He looked so cute when he had guilt in his eyes.

"No," she said, managing a giggle. "You didn't do anything. They just hurt me like that sometimes. Don't worry, I'm sure it will pass."

"Yeah." He murmured, entranced by her beauty. Then he remembered how bloody he was. "Oh. I better get home and get cleaned up and do homework. Sorry." He smiled sheepishly at her.

"It's ok. Don't worry about it. I need to do homework, too." She informed him as he gathered his book bag and headed for the door. She was right behind him, planning on watching him walk out of the door.

He stepped out into the bright sun shining day and said bye, kissed her on the forehead, and turned and jogged away hastily so no one would see a bloody teenager walking down the street.

She closed and locked the door behind her and went off upstairs to do homework before going to bed.

Kagome got up like normal the next day for school and was getting ready when she suddenly felt terribly sick. She rushed to the bathroom and bent over the toilet and…I bet you can guess what she did. (She threw up, for all of you that still do not understand. Haha.)

Kneeling down on the tile floor, Kagome held her stomach. Why, she wondered, was she throwing up like that? She had not shown any signs of having some type of illness, so why was she barfing?

She threw up some more and leaned against the wall.

"I'm not going to school today," She told herself aloud. "I don't feel much like moving right now."

She managed to get up and go down to the living room where she laid on the couch and watched some television for a while, letting her aching stomach feel better. She even drank some water and took a nap.

When she awoke, it was about noontime and she realized the possible reason for her sudden throwing up. Quickly, she got fully dressed in warm clothing and headed out to town.

At School

Inuyasha was worried sick. He was so nervous, in fact, that he had not gotten anything to eat and was instead sitting at the table beside of Miroku, drumming his knuckles against the top of it. "Where is she? Do you think something happened?"

Miroku shook his head while Sango shrugged.

Inuyasha growled in annoyance. "God! I wish I knew what happened. I'm thinking about leaving school to go check on her."

Miroku swallowed his food and said, calmly, "Relax, Inuyasha. Maybe she simply got sick."

"Sick?" Inuyasha demanded, "She was fine when I last talked to her!"

"And when was this?" Miroku wanted to know.

"Last night." Came his friend's reply.

Miroku drank some of his water. "Point proven. She might have gotten sick sometime this morning, Inuyasha. Don't worry so much."

"Yeah," Sango piped in, "He's right. You shouldn't worry about her. She's tough."

Inuyasha sighed. "Whatever." Clearly, he did not believe his two friends. Well, he had a good reason not to. Naraku wasn't in school that day. Maybe it was because of the beating he had suffered the day before, much to Inuyasha satisfaction. But Koga was not there, either. A number of things could have happened to Kagome. And Inuyasha was worried sick.

As soon as school was released for the day, he ran all the way to Kagome's house and knocked on the door a couple times, tension thick around him. He tried turning the doorknob and found that it, much to his astonishment, was unlocked.

He opened the door and walked in, sure that Kagome, if she were all right, would let him barge in. At least he had knocked first.

"Kagome?" He called, a little quietly. "Kagome, where are you?"

He turned and headed up the stairs, almost certain that she'd be in her room if she was away from school.

"Kagome?" He looked in Sota's room, then her mother's room, and next came the bathroom. She was not in any of those rooms, though, and he finally came to her closed bedroom door.

He gulped a little, not sure of what he'd find waiting inside, and he pushed the door open and found Kagome sitting on her bed, tearstains on her pale face. She did not even flinch as her door creaked annoyingly when he opened it.

"Kagome!" He shouted, practically diving at her. He grabbed her upper arms gently and looked into her eyes. Her gaze seemed to look off into the distance. "Kagome, are you all right? What's wrong?"

She snapped out of her daze and wrapped her arms around his neck, sobbing pitifully into his shirt. "Inuyasha!" Her shoulders shook violently.

"What is it?" He asked as she still embraced him tightly.

"I-I…" She had trouble talking.

"Go on. You can tell me." Inuyasha urged.

"I'm…I'm pregnant."
