Chapter 8: Uh Oh, Morning Sickness!

It had been six weeks since she and Inuyasha mated in the Feudal Era, and their honeymoon. She was still pissed whenever someone mentioned her 'father'. Inuyasha was careful not to speak of him around Kagome, Kagome's mother still talked about the honeymoon they went on in Hawaii, truthfully it was started to irritate Kagome. Inuyasha shivered, the last time he irritated Kagome, he slept on the couch for three weeks without sex. And in his opinion that was the worst punishment in the world.

Lately he would find Kagome bent over a toilet bowl puking her guts out. He'd wake up in the middle of the night because Kagome wasn't in bed to keep him warm. He would go looking for her to find her in the bathroom. The smell was horrible, so he stayed out of the bathroom when she was puking her guts out. Kagome even though she knew she was pregnant from when Inuyasha had told her, she hadn't been prepared for morning sickness at every minute of the day.

Kagome growled, as she finished puking her guts out again. It always happened early in the mornings, when her mother was cooking, or in the middle of the night. She hardly got any sleep, except the occasional four hours she got of sleep. Kagome was really irritated, grumpy and extremely hard to deal with when she was sleep deprived.

Inuyasha sighed, he didn't know what to do. So he went to Kagome's mother.

"Mrs. Higurashi. I don't know what to do! Kagome is so irritable when she's sleep deprived! And she's sick almost all the time!" Inuyasha exclaimed with a groan as he approched Mrs. Higurashi who was busy cooking breakfast.

"Oh Inuyasha, it's just morning sickness. In another month or two she'll get better." Mrs. Higurashi replied to him, she finished cooking breakfast putting the food on plates.

"Inuyasha can you tell father, Souta and Kagome that breakfast is ready," Mrs. Higurashi said to him, he nodded and went off to find them.

He found the old man sweeping the shrine grounds, he found Souta in his room playing video games, and found Kagome in her room reading a book that looked overly boring.

He told each one that breakfast was ready, they all nodded, soon enough walked into the kitchen as Kagome's mother put the plates on the table. Kagome tried to hold back the bile at the back of her throat the moment she smelled the food. Slowly, very slowly Kagome started eating the food set in front of her.

As soon as Kagome was finished however, she wanted to rest. She went back to her room and laid on the bed sighing now relaxed she closed her eyes, and went to sleep. Inuyasha soon walked into the room, he saw his mate/wife laying on the bed fast asleep. He smiled as he pulled the blanket up to her neck, he walked out of the room closing the door behind him.

He told Mrs. Higurashi that Kagome was fast asleep. He looked at Souta and the old man with a warning look that told them they needed to be quiet so as to not wake Kagome up. They nodded their heads as they went to the living room to watch some tv. Mrs. Higurashi took the dirty dishes putting them into the dish washer she had purchased two weeks ago making it easy on her when it came to washing dishes. When the dish washer was full, she added a packet of soap into a small square spot that was on the door of the dish washer, closing the door. She set the dish washer on normal wash and steam dry. Pushing the start button the dish washer turned on.

Inuyasha never did get how some machines worked. But it did it's purpose he supposed, walking into the living room to sit with Souta and the old man who were watching some tv show on the flat screen tv, which Mrs. Higurashi also purchased a week before the dish washer.

They watched random tv shows for four hours, only for him to hear Kagome running to the bathroom and puking her guts out again. He sighed as he walked upstairs to see if Kagome was alright. When he got there Kagome was just flushing the toilet and walked up to the sink. She then rinsed out her mouth before she started brushing her teeth.

She groaned, minutes later she was finished brushing her teeth. "I just hate morning sickness," Kagome said in a mumble as she rubbed her stomach that was already showing a baby bump. He knew that because they were both demons, the baby would grow much faster then a human baby would.

"Your mom told me, the morning sickness would stop after a month or two. So just hang in there, okay?" Inuyasha said wrapping his arms around her waist.

Kagome nodded as she nuzzled her nose against his neck, purring as she took in his scent. He chuckled.

"Last time I checked, you didn't have a neko demon in you." Inuyasha said smirking at her.

"Last time I checked you didn't either, yet every time I rub your ears you purr." Kagome retorted back.

"I know. But don't compare me to a neko demon." Inuyasha said as he frowned when she mentioned his ears. He hated being compared to a neko when he was half dog.

"Sorry koi. I can't help myself." Kagome said as she giggled.

"Kagome! Hojo and your friends are hear to see you!" her mother's voice yelled from downstairs. Kagome groaned, she really didn't want to see Hojo. He was really nice and all, but he really annoyed her with all those health presents he'd give her.

The two of them walked downstairs to see Ayumi, Yumi and Eri standing with Hojo who stood beside them.

"Hi guys, what brings you here? Oh, where is Saotomi and Mai?" Kagome asked them.

"Oh, Mai and Saotomi had to go back to Cross Academy. They only stayed until you went on your honeymoon Kagome." Ayumi said.

Kagome nodded, yes she knew that they were vampires from Cross Academy. But for them to be gone when she got back without even saying goodbye or letting her know when they were leaving was a real bummer. Kagome frowned, she wanted to hang out with them more and get to know them.

"Will I see them again?" Kagome asked.

"I don't know. Maybe you should go visit the school, Kagome." Yumi suggested as she smiled.

"No, Kagome. You can't. We have to get back to the feudal era. The others would be worried because we've been in your time so long." Inuyasha said frowning as he looked at his mate who had stars shinning in her eyes at the mention of visiting the infamous Cross Academy. She frowned when Inuyasha declined right away.

"Awe! Come on, just for a couple weeks!" Kagome whined.

Inuyasha sighed, Kagome was making the dog eyes again, she pouted so cutely that it was almost hard to ignore. He sighed again but nodded his concent. He couldn't say no to his mate again or she'd throw a fit. He didn't want her throwing a tantrum, or crying because he displeased her by saying no. He couldn't do that, he was her mate and husband now; he aimed to please.

"Yay!" Kagome cheered. "I better go pack for two weeks. Inuyasha you go let Sango and the others know that we'll be a little longer then usual." Kagome said as she disappeared up the stairs to go pack. Inuyasha sighed but went back through the well anyways.

In the Feudal Era

Sango could be seen pacing back and forth with worry for Kagome and Inuyasha. Miroku and Shippo sweat dropped as they watched her pace.

"Come on Sango, they're fine." Miroku said reassuring her.

"How can you be so sure?" Sango said as she stopped pacing to look at him.

"They can take care of themselves, Sango. Mama will be back I'm sure of it." Shippo said.

As Shippo said that, Inuyasha walked into the hut. "Hey guys," Inuyasha said.

"Oh my gods! Inuyasha! Is Kagome with you?" Sango ranted when she first saw Inuyasha walk through the door.

"Um...no she's back in her time. She told me to tell you guys that we'll be two weeks longer then usual." Inuyasha replied.

"WHAT! Why?" Sango yelled.

"Because she wants to visit some place called Cross Academy." Inuyasha said as he shrugged.

"Okay, tell Kagome we'll wait patiently for your guy's return." Miroku said as he smiled. He placed his hands on Sango's shoulders placing her down between his legs.

"Sango stop pacing, you're making me dizzy," Miroku said while she struggled.

Inuyasha nodded and left back to Kagome's time.

"Why did you stop me! I could have stopped him from going back!" Sango yelled.

"Because it wasn't your place to do so..." Miroku said as he sweat dropped.

Sango gave up struggling as she sighed and nodded. "Okay. If you say so." Sango said and frowned.
