Short little update for you guys! As soon as this is uploaded I'll start on the next chapter so you guys won't have to wait so long :]
Sesshomaru sighed as he rubbed his sore shoulder. The treatment was not exactly as he thought it would be. It zapped him of all of his energy, it decreased his appetite, & the spot where Dr. Grey inserted the needle, right above his bicep, hurt like hell. "How many more treatments would I need?"
Dr. Grey threw the needle away into a bag by itself then grabbed some rubbing alcohol. "After three treatments you will be regularly monitored & tested to see if there are any hormonal changes. When a woma-uh, I mean, a body is ready for a fetus, your hormones will be elevated, your human chorionic gonadotrophin will start appearing & your birthing hole will begin to form"
All that information made the inuyoukai feel a little dizzy. "A human what?"
"It's also known as hCG. It's the chemical that lets a pregnancy test know that you are indeed pregnant"
"Is it normal to feel this tired?"
"Yes, unfortunately that is one of the side effects. After time it will wear off but for now I don't recommend operating a vehicle or doing anything strenuous"
Sesshomaru grimaced as his arm started to ache. It felt like maybe Dr. Grey had hit a nerve, pulling that needle out.
"Anything strenuous like maybe he should be on bedrest?" Inuyasha asked from the corner of the room, the sight of needles making him extremely anxious & wary.
Dr. Grey laughed. "It's not quite that serious, Mr. Inuyasha. He's more than welcomed to do as he pleases as long as he listens to his body & takes a break when he starts feeling strange"
She finished cleaning up her supplies then left after telling them she would return with his discharge papers.
"Why do we need discharge papers for a damn clinic?" Inuyasha mumbled, bouncing his knee impatiently.
"With discharge papers come instructions on aftercare & a prescription" Sesshomaru responded. He did hope Dr. Grey didn't take her sweet time though cause his stomach was already rumbling from hunger.
Thankfully she didn't take very long. When she returned, Dr. Grey handed Sesshomaru his discharge papers, prescription for the soreness in his shoulder & a list of things he should do to take care of yourself. "I cannot stress enough how important it is for you to not put stress on your body, emotionally & physically. When you are tired, please rest. If anything is stressing you out find a way to vent & let it go because your body is extremely vulnerable right now & disrupting what this treatment is designed to do can leave you sterile"
"Translation: you're on bedrest" Inuyasha said almost under his breath.
Dr. Grey chuckled. "Not exactly. He is free to do as he pleases as long as he rests & drinks plenty of water. Water should help with getting the treatment to your womb quicker & will make it a lot easier on your surrounding organs so that you won't get tired as often"
"Well how long will it be until we find out if I can have a baby again or not?" Sesshomaru asked bluntly.
"After three treatments we sample your urine to see if it contains hCG but if you want you two are more than welcomed to have sexual intercourse whenever you want. Just keep in mind not to overexert Mr. Sesshomaru"
"I do all the work anyway..." the hanyou muttered.
"Because you cum too quickly if I get on top" Sesshomaru growled through his teeth.
Dr. Grey cleared her throat. "Right. So please do not hesitate to give me a call if you have any questions at all & let me know immediately if you have any concerns"
The two stood, shook her hand & made their way back to the car so that they could be on their way home.
"Why'd ya have to call me out like that in front of the doc?" Inuyasha grumbled, only half annoyed as he crossed his arms across his broad chest.
"You've been grumpy all morning. It's still early enough for brunch. We should go grab a bite to eat" Sesshomaru said, adjusting the air conditioning.
Immediately, the half breed brightened. "Let's go get some wings!"
"Yasha we had wings last night. Let's have something a little different"
"Fine. Let's have chicken"
"Chicken what?"
"I dunno, chicken fingers or something. Let's go to Zaxby's"
"I don't really want chicken"
Inuyasha sighed & rolled his eyes. Here we go again with this "I dunno what I want to eat but everything you suggest I'm going to object". Why was it always so damn difficult?! "Fine then what do you want?"
"I don't know"
"Damn it, Sessh!"
"There's not exactly a wide variety of restaurants nearby!"
Inuyasha scoffed. "We have Burger King, that Italian & Greek restaurant, McDonald's, Zaxby's, Popeye's, Sonic, Dairy Queen, Ruby Tuesday, iHop, Denny's, Steak N' Shake & Taco Hell-I mean Bell. Now just take a pick"
"I don't want chicken or burgers or fast food period"
"Alright so we can either go to Pasta Bella, Ruby Tuesday, Ihop, or Denny's. Unless you don't mind driving a few more minutes to Chili's, Applebee's & Longhorn"
Sesshomaru gasped & slapped his hand onto his mate's thigh. "That's it! Longhorn!"
Inuyasha swallowed back his complaint as his thigh began to throb. "W-well, alrighty then"
.
..
Once the two got home, Inuyasha slid his phone out of his pocket as his notification ringtone went off.
"Who is it?" Sesshomaru asked as he put their doggy bag in the fridge.
"Miroku. Sango took a pregnancy test & they're pregnant again"
The inuyoukai raised an eyebrow. "That was really quick, considering May is just one"
"He really wants a boy. Hopefully this will be their last kid cause we ain't finna be babysitting three children with several of our own"
"Several?"
"Yeah. Like three"
"Two"
"Three!"
"One boy, one girl"
"& what if our first two are the same gender?"
Sesshomaru shrugged one shoulder. "Then we'll get a dog"
"The hell we are! I guess you forgot about the last time we got a fuckin' dog!"
"Yasha, not all male breeds are like that. Some don't actually want to hump my leg all the time"
"No dogs!" Inuyasha boomed.
Sesshomaru waved his hand dismissively. "We're not having anymore than three kids. That's it, I don't care if they are all the same gender"
The hanyou slipped out of his shoes & sauntered over to his mate, taking his hand. "Ya know...if we're to have a baby, we have to have sex..."
The inuyoukai seemed annoyed by that. "I'm not stupid, Inuyasha"
"I know you aren't but just a few days ago you couldn't stand for me to touch you, much les-"
Inuyasha was interrupted by a pair of lips on his, soft as rose petals & hands caressing his face & neck. For just a split second he even forgot what his damn name was. It'd been such an incredibly long time since he'd had the satisfaction of such a kiss & such tender touches. Before he knew it he had Sesshomaru's back against the wall of the dining room & his hands were busy unbuttoning his pants.
But then Sesshomaru pulled back. "Wait. Wait, Yasha"
The hanyou struggled to not show his disappointment.
The silver haired beauty smirked. "Let's go upstairs"
