The months passed and before either Kagome or Sesshomaru knew it, Rin had become nine years old and the two celebrated their third anniversary. It was now August 2nd and both Hatsumomo and Mrs. Higurashi had moved into the guest rooms already. The baby was due on the fifth and everyone was eagerly waiting for its arrival.
The sitting room that had been connected to their bedroom was transformed into the nursery and Kagome's unused bedroom at the end of the hall was where Sesshomaru kept his sitting room for now. As Kagome folded the last of the clothes into the hospital bag, she felt a pain in her stomach. She knew how to count between contractions and had been facing them for the past day or two but considering that this one had come only fifteen minutes after the last one told her it was time.
"Sesshomaru!" She yelled catching his attention from the bedroom. "I think it's time."
