Kagome the sequel: My mate!
Inuyasha awoke to the morning sun shining threw Kagome's thin curtains. He looked down and smiled at his sweet mate. She was snuggled in his chest with holding him like she was afraid to lose him. Inuyasha then looked around the room and smelled a change in scents and panicked. 'Where's Ichiro?' Inuyasha carefully got out of Kagome's grasp and ran downstairs. He smelt a faint scent of his pup in the kitchen as he got closer the smell became stronger and his panic turned to happiness.
"Hey there Ich." Inuyasha sat by Mrs. Higurashi and watched her bottle feed his pup. "Morning Inuyasha." She gave him a kiss on the cheek. "How's Kagome?" Inuyasha smiled. "She's asleep. I was just wondering where my pup was so I came down stairs." She smiled. "Would you like some breakfast? It's almost finished." Inuyasha smiled. "Thanks." She passed him his pup and went to go check on the food.
Inuyasha picked up his pup and ran around the kitchen. Ichiro giggled. He then threw him into the air and caught him again. Inuyasha did this until Mrs. Higurashi said breakfast was finished. Ichiro pouted. This made Inuyasha sad. "Sorry Ich after breakfast I'll play ok?" Ichiro smiled. So Inuyasha sat him on the floor with a couple toys to play with.
STOMP! STOMP!
Sota ran down stairs to the call of breakfast. "Wow where'd you come from? I never saw you last night." Inuyasha tilted his head in confusion while Sota took a seat next to him. "I was in my room. I had homework to do." Sota put his hand by his mouth and mouthed. 'I was actually sleeping' then his food was laid on the table next to him. "Enjoy boys!" She sat down next to Sota and ate some breakfast herself.
The boys were finished their breakfast and laughing about some video game. Sota felt some strange tugging at his pajamas and looked down. "Wow! Inuyasha is this kid yours?" Inuyasha looked down. "Yep!" He smiled proudly. "Can I teach him some video games?" Inuyasha laughed. "Sota I don't think he will understand. You can play but I doubt he'll pay attention." Sota jumped up in excitement. "Yes!" Inuyasha brought Ichiro over to the couch will Sota set up the game. "Now little man you be good for Sota." Inuyasha ruffled his son's hair. "I'm going to lie down with Kagome. Watch Ich." Sota made a sour face. "Don't try anything with my sister. I know you guys had sex and that's really gross!" Inuyasha turned around to blush and grabbed Kagome's breakfast on the kitchen table he smiled at the two boys then proceeded up stairs.
Once he reached Kagome's room he pushed the door open quietly then laid her breakfast on her desk and crawled into bed with her. "Mmm… Inu?" She stretched out her tired limbs. "Yeah it's me baby." She wrapped her arms around him then pulled up to give him a kiss. He smiled. "Are you hungry? I brought you breakfast." Her face lit up. "I'll eat it after. Thanks baby!" She grabbed his face and kissed him again. Inuyasha smirked then flipped her over. "Inuyasha!" Kagome gasped. He then felt his way down to her stomach and began to tickle her. "Hehehe Inuyasha." She laughed. Inuyasha tickled her harder and she began to squirm. "Inuyasha!" She squealed. He tickled her even harder then she started to squirm and kick. She kicked squirmed to close to the edge of the bed that the couple fell off with Inuyasha on top.
INUYASHA! BANG!
"What was that?" Sota paused his video game and ran upstairs with Mrs. Higurashi and Ichiro behind.
"Oh kami! Kagome are you ok?" Inuyasha pulled her into his lap. She giggled. "Inu I'm fine. Are you ok?" Inuyasha feh'd "I'm a man! Little things like that don't hurt me!"
Soat barged in the room with the two following behind. "Kagome are you ok?" Sota ran to the couple on the floor. "What happen?" Kagome's mom asked next. Kagome and Inuyasha burst laughing. "Mom, Sota I'm fine. Inuyasha was tickling me and we fell off the bed." Inuyasha helped Kagome up off the floor. Kagome got up and kissed him.
"Ok. I'm glad you're ok but EWW! GROSS!" Sota ran down stairs.
Mrs. Higurashi laughed. "Kids." She sighed.
Inuyasha dropped his arm to the side and noticed something was missing. "Oh kami! Babe I forget tetsusuiga at Kaede`s!" Kagome gasped. "Mom we have to get tetsusuiga we'll be back in a week to visit." Kagome's mom's face lit up. "Can I take Ichiro for the week? I know it's a big thing to ask but it will be his first official sleep over at grandma's house and that way I can spend some time with him." Kagome looked worried. 'Mate its ok. He's fine.' Kagome looked at Inuyasha. 'I don't know…' Kagome's mom looked bored at the two. She saw them giving each other strange looks. Inuyasha looked enthusiastic while Kagome a little less. 'Ok fine but I'm leaving a jewel shard here in case something happens.' Inuyasha smiled. "Mrs. Higurashi. We give you permission to take our son for the week." Mrs. Higurashi jumped in joy. "Thank you!"

Sango sponged the wet cloth and laid it on his forehead. 'I'm so sorry.' Sango thought to herself. Miroku came into their hut and kneeled down next to his wife. "Sango he's going to be ok. I promise." Sango looked up at Miroku with tears in her eyes. "Oh Miroku!" She fell limply in his arms while she cried. "Shh." Miroku kissed her forehead.

"Ok. I think we have everything!" Kagome laid her yellow bag on the floor. Inuyasha was rocking his pup to sleep while Kagome packed what they needed. "Babe I'm nervous." Kagome sat on the bed. Inuyasha sat down next to her and wrapped an arm around her waist. "It's going to be fine. I trust your mom. I know were doing the right thing." Kagome looked down at her pup about to cry. She took her pup into her arms and cradled him back and forth. Inuyasha grabbed the yellow bag and brought it downstairs. "Sota my man!" Sota paused his game. "Yeah Inuyasha?"
"Can you do me and your sister a favor?"
"What is it?"
"I want you to take good care of your nephew for us while were gone."
"You mean I get to watch him!"
"Yep."
Sota jumped up and down then in Inuyasha's arms. "Thank you Inuyasha. He then ran upstairs to go share the news with his sister.
"Kagome! Kagome! Guess what!" He pushed her door open and ran in her room. "Inuyasha said I could watch Ichiro while you guys are away!"
Kagome looked up at her brother's cheerful expression and couldn't say no. "Ok but you have to take good care of him."
"I will protect him with my life!"
Kagome smiled he sounded just like Inuyasha when he said that.
Sota grabbed Kagome's hand. "Come on! The faster you leave the faster I can watch my baby nephew!" Kagome held her baby protectively as Sota hulled her down the stairs.
Words couldn't describe Inuyasha's face when he seen Sota's happy expression.
"Can I take him now? Please!" Sota was jumping up and down. He couldn't wait to watch his baby nephew!
"Ok." Kagome passed him her child. Sota held her baby like it were a glass doll. Sota gently swayed the child back and forth in his arms.
Inuyasha seen Kagome's face and knew if he didn't take her now she couldn't leave. So he came up behind her and wrapped his strong arms around her waist. "Come on baby." Kagome and Inuyasha kissed Ichiro good bye before Inuyasha pulled Kagome away.
Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's yellow bag and swung it around his shoulder. Kagome's mom ran in when she seen them leaving. "See you soon!" She kissed them both on the cheek and waved good bye.
They stepped outside the house to the darkening sky. Inuyasha and Kagome hand in hand while walking to the well. Inuyasha picked Kagome up by the waist and jumped in. The well spun different colours of blues and purples until they reached the end. Never letting go of his mate's waist he jumped out of the well. He carried her bridal style as he jumped through the forest to a hot spring.
Inuyasha dropped Kagome`s yellow bag then the couple discarded their clothes. Stepping in to the steamy hot water felt so relaxing. Kagome sat in Inuyasha`s lap. He felt a warm trickle of water roll down his chest and knew Kagome was crying. "Baby it`s only for a week. We`ll see Ich soon." Inuyasha began to nuzzle Kagome`s neck. "I know Inu but I already miss him." Kagome sobbed into his chest. "I miss him too baby. But I know that he will be ok. It`s a lot safer in your time and I bet he`s having fun!" Inuyasha encouraged. Kagome snuggled into Inuyasha`s chest while he said soothing things into her fuzzy doggy ear to comfort her. Inuyasha held her in his arms while rubbing small circles in her back. Kagome grabbed Inuyasha`s fuzzy doggy ears, he emitted soft purrs in the back of his throat. His purrs always soothed Kagome. It was so soothing it began to make her drowsy. Inuyasha rubbed one of her fuzzy triangles in his hands slowly. He rubbed them in small circles. Kagome moaned she loved the feel of her ears being rubbed. Now she knew why Inuyasha hated it when she touched his ears. It turned him on.
"See this is what ear rubbing does to me." He purred into her ear. Kagome smirked and kept rubbing them. The couple lay in the hot spring purring. While enjoying each other's company.
Inuyasha`s ears twitched. "Did you hear that?" She ignored him and kept rubbing his ears. Inuyasha forgot about the sound and kept purring.
"Kagome…" A familiar voice sounded in a close bush next to the couple.
Inuyasha put her behind his back making sure she was covered in the water.
"Koga?" Kagome questioned.
Koga came out of the bushes looking hurt. "So I guess you chose dog turd? Kagome I thought we had something special…" Koga hid his head in shame.
"Koga I`m sorry but I love Inuyasha. Me and him are now mated and have a pup."
Koga`s eyes looked like they were about to water. "Kagome… You're my woman! I`ve been searching for you. Believe me I have."
"I believe you Koga but I`ve always loved Inuyasha, Koga I was never your woman. I`m Inuyasha`s woman and nothing. Not even death can separate us now."
Koga`s eyes were now glistening. "Kagome…"
Inuyasha actually felt bad for the mutt. "Look pal. You're only going to be hurt further if you don`t leave..."
"Don`t call me pal. Kagome I… I just can`t believe this."
"Well start believing it because she`s mine." Inuyasha was growing frustrated with him.
Koga frowned "Well Kagome I hope you and mutt face have a good life together." Koga aloud a tear to roll down his cheek and he ran for the forest.
"Koga…" Kagome whispered softly. Inuyasha turned around and held her close to his chest. "Inuyasha I thought Koga knew." Inuyasha looked down at her feeling her pain. "I thought he did to Kagome… It`s ok it`s better this way."
"Inu thank you." Inuyasha carried her out of the hot springs. He put on his hakama then got her dressed. "Let`s go home." Their fingers intertwined. Kagome rested her head on his shoulder.
On their way home they smelled Kaede`s soup and decided to stop by for something to eat. Inuyasha led Kagome to Kaede`s hut. "Inu baby I don`t think I can eat." She held her stomach. "Please mate try to eat a little bit… For me." Still holding her hand he wrapped his other hand around her waist and the couple walked to Kaede`s.
"Welcome back! Would ye like some of me soup?" Inuyasha nodded. Kaede passed them both a bowl of soup then went into her room. Inuyasha ate all of his while Kagome had a few spoons full. Inuyasha frowned. "Please mate eat a little more." Kagome stirred her soup around. She ended up eating a few more spoon fulls before Inuyasha said she had enough. Kaede came out to collect their plates. "Thanks Kaede. We`re gonna go home now Kagome`s tired."
"Miroku asked of me to tell ye that he wanted to see ye when ye got back." Kaede grabbed the two bowls.
"Alright then, come on Kag`s." He grabbed tetsusuiga then sheathed it. Kagome grabbed his hand and the two left for Miroku`s hut.
As the couple got closer Inuyasha smelled a familiar scent. Inuyasha pulled Kagome into his arms and ran at the speed of lightning. "Inu what`s wrong?" Inuyasha kept running. "There`s something wrong." In one leap Inuyasha was finally at the hut`s door. Inuyasha barged in with Kagome in his arms. The couple gasped.
Authors note: Cliffy! Muahaha! So what/who do you think it is? I know the Koga part is a bit depressing but don't worry! There's more to come! Please R&R
