Chapter 27 Hospital Visit and Inuyasha's worries.
The demon lovers were at the hospital the next day for Kira's ultrasound. Her maternity doctor, Tatsuro, was glad to hear that the twins started kicking yesterday.
Tatsuro lead the two to a room and had Kira lay down on the bed and lift up her shirt.
"Now this is going to be cold." The doctor said as she smeared a gel onto Kira's belly.
Kira shivered a bit and held onto Sesshomaru's hand.
Tatsuro then turned on a monitor and placed the scanner onto her stomach. After rolling the scanner around to get it lubricated, she stilled the device and started the ultrasound.
"Now lets see here." Tatsuro stared at the screen as she moved the scanner slowly across Kira's belly. "Ah yes. There they are."
"I can't tell them apart." Kira said as she stared at the screen. "They just look like white blobs to me."
Tatsuro just laughed. "That's what they all say. But I think this blob right there...." She said as she pointed at the blob at the bottom of the screen. "....is your baby. Possibly....." She moved the scanner down to get a better image. "...yes. That would be your son."
"Kenji." Sesshomaru whispered softly as he smiled at the screen.
"And it looks like the other blob above him is.....your daughter." Tatsuro said as she slid the scanner to above Kira's belly button. "Yes that is your daughter."
"Hoshimaru." Kira smiled and then looked up at Sesshomaru. "That's her Sesshomaru."
"Yes i know dear." He just couldn't stop smiling. He was so happy to see his heirs.
"Well they look happy and healthy. And it looks like the boy's umbilical cord is safely away from the girl. If things stay the way they are in you Mrs. Taisho, you might be able to do a normal birth instead of a C-section." Tatsuro said as she scanned Kira's a little more. "Though a c-section might be easier for you in my opinion. But the decision is up to you."
Kira nodded as she smiled at the screen. Sesshomaru was so proud of his mate and heirs. He didn't even care if Naraku somehow manage to come to the modern era and did something, nothing could ruin this happiness for him.
Tatsuro soon finished scanning and turned off the screen and the scanner. She then cleaned off the gel from Kira's belly and helped Kira to sit up. "All done Mrs. Taisho."
Kira nodded and smiled at her mate.
Sesshomaru smiled and moved closer to her, picking her up and holding her in his arms, bridal style. "I love you."
Kira giggled and kissed him on the cheek. "You are such a goofball."
"Only for you my love." He said as he smirked at her.
Tatsuro just laughed at the two of them.
Once Sesshomaru carefully placed Kira on her feet, the doctor showed them out to the lobby so they could schedule another appointment. After that, they headed outside where the demon lord took Kira into his arms again and carried her to Koduku's car.
"Three more days." Inuyasha said as he stared at himself in the bathroom mirror. He was looking at his right eye and had noticed how dark and big the pupil was. The pearl was diffinately coming close to the surface of his eye. "Three more days until my old man comes."
"You okay in there?" Came Kagome's voice from behind the door.
"Yeah. I'm fine." He said as he unlock the door and opened it. "I was just checking out my eye again."
Kagome smiled as she greeted him in the hallway. "You're eye looks fine."
The half demon smiled back and kissed her on the forehead. "It stopped hurting a few minutes ago. I just wanted to see what was going on."
She nodded and then held him. "It's almost time....isn't it?"
He was silent for a moment and then wrapped his arms around her. "Yeah. In three days my old man will be alive again. And i don't know what to do about it."
Kagome stayed silent as he continued.
"I've never seen my father at all. I don't even know what he looked like. I don't even know if he knows what i look like now."
Kagome smiled and looked up at him. "You're worried if he'll accept you and our daughter. Aren't you?"
Inuyasha stared at her for a moment and then relaxed. "Yeah. I guess i am."
"Don't worry. I'm sure he'll be proud to hear that I'm carrying your daughter." She said as she kissed him on the lips.
Inuyasha deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around her. He soon broke for air and looked into her eyes. "I hope your right Kagome."
She giggled and pushed her forehead against his. She then took his hand and placed it on her belly. "Have i been wrong before?"
Inuyasha smirked as he felt Sukimaru squirming around in her mother's belly. "No. You haven't."
They stayed like that for a few more minutes until they heard the front door close down stairs.
"Kira and Sesshomaru are home." Kagome said as she smiled at him.
"I know." He stayed where he was, just staring into her eyes.
"Kags! I got a picture of the twins!" Came Kira's voice from downstairs.
Both smiled and then headed downstairs to see Kira's ultrasound picture.
