What If

Kagome paced in the middle of the bathroom while waiting for the dreaded truth. The little white stick mocked her silently. She was afraid.

"Am I pregnant?" Kagome asked herself.

No she couldn't be, she was only half way threw her sophomore year in college. She can't take care of a baby now.

"Come on hurry up you…you stupid…THING!" Kagome said as she picked up the pregnancy test only to place it back down on the counter.

She wouldn't have ever worried about this if Sango didn't bring it up.

Everyone was at Miroku's birthday party at her house. The party didn't really seem to be getting anywhere so Miroku, Koga, and Inuyasha made the suggestion to play 'truth or dare.' Sango could already tell where this could head as long as Miroku was in this but decided to let it go seeing as things were a little dull.

They all sat in a circle in the living room. Kagome was sitting on Sesshomaru's lap on the couch, not because she wanted to, he just wouldn't let her go. Kikyo was sitting on side of him with Inuyasha sitting on the floor between her legs and stroking her thigh. Sango sat on side of them on the floor using Ayame and Koga to separate her from Miroku.

Since it was Miroku's birthday, she went first. He put on a wicked smile as she looked at Kagome who cringed knowing that something perverted was being concocted in that little head of his.

"Kagome…truth or dare."

Kagome sighed, she had to think. Either one would be a bad choice in her case but she had to figure which was the worse of the two.

"Truth." She said in an almost questionable fashion.

Miroku's smirk widened even more. He wanted to ask this question for a long time now but could never find the best way to do it.

"Kagome, how many times have you and Sesshomaru had sex."

Her eyes open so wide that she thought that her eyelids flew off. She looked around nervously cursing the pervert under her breath.

"Dare, I pick dare!"

"To late to change now."

Kagome looked back at Sesshomaru, silently pleading him to force Miroku to either let her pick dare or ask another, non-sex related question. He just sat back with a wide smirk. It was clear that he wasn't ashamed. Men.

"Well Kags, oh and you better not lie, I'm sure Sesshomaru would let us know if you were." Miroku said with a smirk of his own that she wanted to wipe clean off his face.

She looked back at Sesshomaru pleading again but he said, "Go on Kagome, say it and make the pervert jealous."

Everyone had their eyes wide, listening intently, it seems that this was a question on their minds as well.

Kagome's eyes darted from place to place, her mouth opened to say something only to close shut once again. Finally, she sighed before saying, "I think…I believe it was…I don't know, I lost count."

She gasped as she put her hands over her mouth realizing the mistake she made. Miroku choked on air while Koga patted him on the back. The other girls in the room looked in different directions. The only one who wasn't surprised was Sesshomaru whose smirk got bigger to where he was showing his fangs and Inuyasha who witnessed on mistake half of the times they were together.

"Uh, Kagome, how long have you two been…intimate?" Koga asked trying to pick his words carefully.

Kagome whished she was non-existent now as she mumbled something that the other humans in the room couldn't hear but every demon and Inuyasha did.

"Since second semester? It's not second semester yet..." Koga said but then was interrupted by Sesshomaru who said, "She meant earlier this year."

She glared at Sesshomaru who was going to be in so much trouble when they got home.

The day after, the girls got together like usual at the food court to have lunch. They sat in an awkward silence as they slowly ate their meal that was until Sango broke it.

"So Kagome, don't you ever worry?"

Kagome put down her burger to look up at her. "Worry about what?" She then whished that she didn't ask.

"You know, getting pregnant."

Kagome choked on her food before looking back up at her once again.

"Sorry I asked…"

"No…no, it's okay."

It wasn't okay. Don't get Kagome wrong, she was careful, she made sure that they used protection…most of the time, hey when she had urges, she just had to make due. She tried to push the thoughts aside thinking that they've gone this long with out a problem that was until now.

Kagome had been feeling a little sick and her monthly cycle haven't come on for two months. She started to panic. She quickly rushed to the drug store while Sesshomaru was out and bought the test.

At last, the five minutes that she had to wait were up and she looked at the dreaded truth.

At this time, Sesshomaru came home and was looking for her. He followed her scent to the open bathroom where he saw her looking at the white stick in her hand. He tilted his head, unknowing and uncaring what it was. It was just a white plastic stick to him. Then he really thought about it. Suddenly realization struck him, he remember seeing something like it when Izayoi found out that she was pregnant with Rin.

"K-Kagome…" He said startling her a bit. "Is that…what I think it is?"

Kagome looked back to the stick and just nodded.

"W-what do-does it s-say?"

His face was expressionless and his voice was shaky. It almost sounded like he was excited but she couldn't really tell.

"It's negative."

Sesshomaru sighed and let the doorframe support his weight. She could see relief in his eyes as well as feel it in his aura along with a slight tinge of disappointment. It made her feel a little better on how things could have turned out if it was positive but happy all together at the results.

Soon after she threw away the cause of her problems, both she and Sesshomaru walked to the front to sit together and try to find something to watch on TV. As she snuggled into Sesshomaru there was a question nagging in her mind.

"Sess?"

His eyes were glued to the screen but hearing him "Hn" let her know that he was listening.

"What would happen if it was positive?"

His arms closed around her more and he let his thumb make lazy circles on her shoulder.

"What would you want me to do?" Was all he said still not looking at her.

"Well that's why I'm asking."

He finally looked at her and shook his head with a small smile. "And I said, 'what would you want me to do?' If you wanted me to hold them, then I would. If you wanted me to play with them then I could do that too. If you wanted me to feed them, clean them, buy them things, take them places, or anything, it would be done. I would do anything for my children…and for the mother of my children."

Kagome felt tears sting her eyes, she really did have the best boyfriend in the world. She snuggled deeper into him before saying, "That's good then because I didn't know how you would really feel, the test was positive."

Sesshomaru shot up with a smile, "Really?!"

Kagome giggled and shook her head. "No, I just wanted to see your expression."

Sesshomaru growled playfully at her before lying back down to resume watching TV.
