Chapter 5

Sesshomaru looked around his apartment, the area still as clean as he had left it besides dust. Staying at Inuyasha's was nice and all, but he had to get some stuff from home. He had moved in a year before, working his way through the new world with great difficulty. To others it might have seemed flawless, but being stuck around humans in such quantities he had never heard of.

He got out a suitcase and packed some clothes, looking around for another pair of shoes. He didn't know how to get a job, and he didn't plan on getting one. Because he slept till now, all his riches were still safe. He was helped by a woman to turn his riches into money, Sesshomaru probably richer than Inuyasha and the emperor combined.

He had a lot of books in which he read to keep up with time, and was not surprised when he didn't find demons in them. He found one book full of demons, and it almost saddened him that they were all gone. He met a few here and there, but they all had interbred or were dying off. It was what they faced today.

He had found a child demon that was no more than fifty, the small child following him everywhere. She lived in Sesshomaru's apartment, and Sesshomaru supplied her with money to help keep her alive.

"Sesshomaru-sama, when can I go with you?" Sesshomaru frowned slightly, looking to the little girl. She was no longer only skin and bones, but she ha a lot to make up for her years of starvation. Sesshomaru wasn't sure he wanted to introduce her to Inuyasha just yet, but he also knew he couldn't just keep leaving her alone.

"Pack some of your things," Sesshomaru ordered, the girl running off with a giggle. Sesshomaru froze at the sound, his eyes staring down at his full suitcase. She sounded just like the Rin from before. Sesshomaru had wondered what Rin would be reborn into, but he had never guessed a demon. Her name wasn't Rin in this life, this time it was Kyo.

Sesshomaru would protect her either way.

When they were all packed Sesshomaru called a taxi, his own car left in the garage. It was not big or fancy, but it got the job done. But he never liked driving it because he got restless. It took a long minute to get to Inuyasha's home, but when they did Sesshomaru could feel the sadness that lurked inside. He stepped out of the car, Kyo getting out with him.

"Wow! This is bigger than the entire apartment building!" Kyo exclaimed, Sesshomaru shushing her. They walked inside, the door left wide open. Sesshomaru sat Kyo on the couch; the little girl turning on the TV and watching cartoons. Sesshomaru went to Inuyasha's room, pushing open the door slowly. The room was torn apart, but in the middle of it all Inuyasha sat there. He held a bottle of sake in his grasp, the thing almost empty. Tear streaks ran down his face, but his tears have seemed to stop falling. Sesshomaru walked inside and closed the door, Inuyasha looking to him with hollow eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Inuyasha asked, Sesshomaru stepping over a broken vase.

"Why is the room a mess?" Sesshomaru combated, Inuyasha snorting softly as he took another swig of his sake. He dropped the empty bottle, rubbing his eyes with one hand.

"She moved on you know. Kagome." Sesshomaru frowned at the name, Inuyasha chuckling softly as he rested back against his flipped bed.

"She married Naraku, she said she was happy." Sesshomaru took a couple more steps forward; deciding not to mention Kyo was here with him at the moment. Inuyasha was a mess, more than Sesshomaru had ever seen him. Being pregnant hardly affected him, but something must have happened for him to be so broken.

"I loved her, but she didn't love me back." Inuyasha kicked the bottle away, his eyes looking to the floor as Sesshomaru kneeled down in front of him.

"After all of this time I wasted my life waiting for her, and she didn't even love me back." Sesshomaru touched a hand to Inuyasha's face, raising his eyes so he looked at him.

"I'm here." Inuyasha's features hardened, his eyes filling with tears again. Sesshomaru kissed away Inuyasha's sadness, his anger rising at the fact someone had made his mate cry. He also grew angry at Inuyasha for drinking while he was carrying his offspring, but he would save that argument for later. He pulled away slowly, Inuyasha's features softened. Inuyasha leaned forward and kissed him again, wrapping his arms around his neck.

Sesshomaru pulled him into his lap, his eyes closed as he tried to kiss away Inuyasha's sadness. Inuyasha pulled away after a long second, taking off his shirt before returning to the kiss. Sesshomaru traced his fingers over Inuyasha's back, feeling a small scar just above his tailbone. He undid his belt, Inuyasha getting off his lap to stand up. He took off his pants, Sesshomaru rising onto his knees to kiss Inuyasha's stomach.

Inuyasha put a hand on his head, his eyes closing when Sesshomaru's lips moved lower. Sesshomaru had never given head before, but he was determined to do whatever it took to cheer Inuyasha up. He thought back to his first encounter, grabbing Inuyasha's member and putting it into his mouth. He didn't have a gag reflex so just went all the way down, Inuyasha gasping in shock at the feeling. Sesshomaru pulled back before sucking on the head, Inuyasha's legs starting to shake. Sesshomaru went all the way down one more time before moving away from Inuyasha's member, not wanting the half breed to come just yet.

Inuyasha was panting as he pushed Sesshomaru onto his back, straddling his thighs. Sesshomaru let him take off his shirt, Inuyasha looking over his chest and torso. Sesshomaru was covered in scars from the wars he had encountered, Inuyasha touching each one with gentle fingers. He kissed one just by Sesshomaru's collarbone, moving down slowly. He took off Sesshomaru's jeans, his tongue playing with his member. Sesshomaru pushed him away gently when he craved more than just his mouth, slicking his fingers with saliva. Inuyasha didn't get off of Sesshomaru, rising up to his knees so he could prepare him.

Inuyasha gasped when he put in two fingers, Sesshomaru stretching him gently. Inuyasha arched when he slipped over his sweet spot, placing his hands on Sesshomaru's knees as he pressed down against his fingers. Sesshomaru pleasured him till he couldn't take it anymore, pulling his fingers free.

Inuyasha gasped when Sesshomaru lined himself up and pushed inside, Inuyasha looking down to the older demon. Sesshomaru pulled him down by the hips roughly, Inuyasha crying out in pleasure. Sesshomaru groaned in pleasure, his eyes meeting Inuyasha's.

"Make me forget."

Sesshomaru was only so glad to indulge.

Inuyasha gasped when Sesshomaru moved their positions, Inuyasha's back against the floor as Sesshomaru loomed above him. Inuyasha gasped when Sesshomaru took him roughly, his eyes burning with tears as he clung to his mate. Inuyasha threw his head back with a cry when Sesshomaru slid past his prostate, Sesshomaru kissing his lips as he used some of his power to fuck Inuyasha into oblivion.

Inuyasha moaned into his mouth, his claws racking down Sesshomaru's back. Sesshomaru pulled away from the kiss, Inuyasha gasping when he pulled his hair and forced him to arch. Sesshomaru placed his other hand on the floor, using it to give him more strength behind his thrusts. Inuyasha moaned brokenly, his eyes closed as he felt everything at once.

Sesshomaru was an animal, his thrusts brutal as he released low growls of effort. Inuyasha moved his hips, slamming down every time Sesshomaru thrusted up. The act intensified his pleasure, Inuyasha moaning loudly. Sesshomaru wanted to hear more, his eyes flashing red.

Inuyasha nearly screamed when he thrusted harder, Sesshomaru's claws digging into the floor as he used every ounce of his being to pleasure Inuyasha. Inuyasha wrapped his legs around Sesshomaru, locking his ankles against his back as he took everything Sesshomaru gave. He dug his hands into Sesshomaru's hair, pulling him down into a kiss. Sesshomaru devoured him, Inuyasha barely able to keep up.

He pulled away with a cry when Sesshomaru slammed into his prostate, Inuyasha growling in pleasure as he reached a hand down to stroke himself.

He thrashed when Sesshomaru slapped his hand away and took over, Inuyasha gasping for breathe like a fish out of water. All it took was a few strokes and Inuyasha came, his back arching as he flew up into the clouds. Sesshomaru stilled inside of him, Inuyasha's breathe taken away when he felt the warmth inside.

"Sesshomaru…"

:::+:::

Inuyasha laid down next to Sesshomaru on the floor, unable to feel his legs at the moment. It didn't matter though, his head lying on Sesshomaru's broad chest. His heartbeat was steady, Inuyasha closing his eyes as it helped him relax. Sesshomaru lifted his arm around his waist, running his fingers through Inuyasha's hair. Inuyasha sighed softly, suddenly very tired. He looked up at a knock on the door, a small voice coming from behind it.

"Sesshomaru-sama, I'm hungry." Inuyasha frowned, looking up to Sesshomaru who was looking to the door as well.

"There's a pizza in the fridge," Inuyasha replied, the little voice thanking him before footsteps signaled her departure. Inuyasha rose up onto his elbow, looking down to Sesshomaru who was still looking at the door.

"Sesshomaru-sama? Who the hell was that?" Inuyasha asked, a tad peeved that she probably heard everything that just happened only minutes before. Sesshomaru looked back to Inuyasha, clearing his throat.

"Her name is Kyo. I took her in shortly after I woke." Inuyasha frowned, suddenly wondering where the hell Sesshomaru lived. Sesshomaru seemed to read his mind.

" When I woke up I had to fit into society. I turned my riches into money, got an apartment and found that little girl starving. I have taken care of her since." Inuyasha's features softened, laying his head back on Sesshomaru's chest.

"I wonder if maybe you became too kind for your own good," Inuyasha whispered, Sesshomaru grunting softly as he ran a hand through Inuyasha's hair once again. He frowned when he saw the sake bottle, lightly pulling on Inuyasha's hair.

"No more drinking, you'll harm our child," Sesshomaru told him, Inuyasha chuckling softly. He wouldn't tell him he threw up most of it due to morning sickness, the small portion he just drank barely staying down. Inuyasha hummed softly, closing his eyes. He moved closer, kissing Sesshomaru's chest.

"Thank you, for being here for me." Sesshomaru frowned, looking down to his mate. He pulled Inuyasha's head back by his hair, Inuyasha looking into his eyes.

"You are mine, Inuyasha. I will always be here for you." Inuyasha smirked a little at that, slowly sitting up and looking down to Sesshomaru with a smile.

"I can't say I love you, but I will say I don't hate you anymore." Sesshomaru smirked, getting to his feet and offering his hand to Inuyasha.

"Come, Kyo wants to meet you." They showered and dressed before leaving the destroyed room, Inuyasha following Sesshomaru to the kitchen. A little demon girl sat there, a piece of pizza in her mouth. She looked to them, her eyes lingering on Inuyasha. She chewed her pizza before swallowing, putting the rest of it down.

"Sesshomaru-sama, is this Inuyasha?" Kyo asked, Sesshomaru nodding once. Inuyasha was surprised when she ran up to him and hugged him, a small giggle leaving her lips.

"Are you going to be my mommy!?" She asked eagerly, looking up to Inuyasha with big green eyes. Inuyasha didn't know what to say, his lips parting slightly. He nodded after a long moment of silence, Kyo laughing happily as she hugged him tightly. Inuyasha raised a hand up, resting it on her small head. He looked to Sesshomaru for answers but the demon was just staring at Kyo.

"Kyo, finish eating," Sesshomaru ordered, Kyo looking to him. She nodded with a smile, going back to eating her pizza. Sesshomaru walked to the living room, Inuyasha following.

"Why am I her mommy?" Inuyasha asked, Sesshomaru looking to him with a raised eyebrow.

"Because you are my mate."

Inuyasha sighed softly, touching a hand to his stomach. He couldn't really argue with that. He sat down on the couch, looking up to Sesshomaru.

"Why doesn't she call you daddy then?" Inuyasha asked, Sesshomaru frowning slightly.

"She knows me as her father, but she says my name. If you wish, she will call you by your name." Inuyasha looked away from Sesshomaru, his heart mending itself together slowly.

"As my mate, move in with me Sesshomaru. Along with Kyo."

Sesshomaru got to his knees in front of Inuyasha, kissing his lips. Inuyasha closed his eyes.

Inuyasha would move on.

Without Kagome.

This was his family now.
