After two weeks.
Kelly was lying on her bed. It has been a while since she felt this strange sensation. She didn't want to eat anymore and had her head spinning. She reached her hand to her drawer and took the pregnancy test. Her eyes were filled with tears as she checked the result again. Pregnant, she was one month pregnant. What was she going to do? How was she going to deal with this child? Abortion. The word crossed her mind but she immediately shoved it off. She could never kill her child. Her thoughts died when her cell phone rang. Her heart prompted in her chest. Was it Naraku? She flipped it open and responded with a shaken voice.
"Hello?"
"Kelly, it is I, Sango. I am just calling you to see if you are okay. You didn't come yesterday to college and you're not answering your phone."
Kelly bit her bottom lip. She couldn't tell her that she was pregnant, and with the child of a man who didn't even love her. Naraku.
"I am okay." She simply responded, looking at her hands. "I am just a little bit tired."
"Please tell me that you are over the inuyasha thing."
Kelly smiled bitterly. Inuyasha was the least of her worries. Her heart desired, no, craved for Naraku. And her lover didn't contact her personally since the last time they slept together.
"Kelly? Are you still there?"
"Oh yes Sango. I just don't feel like talking right now. I need to gather my thoughts, please."
Sango sighed on the phone before hanging up. Kelly put her cell phone next to her then grabbed it and dialed the familiar number.
"What do you want?" came the immediate response of a very pissed Naraku. Kelly felt like dying on the spot but responded anyway.
"I need to talk to you Naraku, I…"
"I don't want to talk to you. You have a job to do and as far as I know Taisho is still attached to this girl. You have been very disappointing."
"I…" she couldn't finish as tears gathered in her eyes, threatening to fall.
"What? You need to talk?" He snapped with a disgusted voice. "Then talk. What are you waiting for? I don't have the whole day to listen to your crap."
Kelly put her hand on her stomach, taking the courage to face his rejection.
"Naraku, I love you, I need to talk to you."
"You love me?" He asked with a mocking voice. "Really? Did I ever ask you to love me? I just slept with you; I had sex, not love but sex with you. You were fun for awhile then I got bored and moved to another. Is your head to thick to understand that I am no more in need for your body to please me?"
Kelly was in shock. How could he say that? She loved him, she gave him everything.
"But…"
"I will give you one last chance Kelly. I will meet you tonight in my apartment and we will talk."
"Thank you." She murmured in a hopeful voice.
"Come at eight and don't be late, girl."
"I won't."
Kagome rested her chin on Inuyasha's bare chest as they rested together on the messy sheets. She kissed his chest and smiled when he groaned.
"Can we talk now?" She asked as she looked at his golden eyes. He looked back before talking.
"What did your mother say about us Kagome?"
"Well, she said that you are not convenient for me and that I should leave you, and go back to Hojo."
Inuyasha's eyes darkened as he pulled her so that her face was just above his.
"And how did you answer her?"
"I told her that we were getting to know each other and that I was the one that should judge who is best for me."
"Did you tell her about, you know, our activities together?"
Kagome blushed when Inuyasha rolled her under him and stared at her.
"No." She whispered in a little voice. "I cannot tell her, she would kill me if she knew. She thinks that I am sleeping in my friend's place. She will have a heart attack if she knows that I am in this hotel with you."
"Do you regret coming here?" He asked as he started kissing her neck. She placed her hands around his neck, enjoying his touch.
"Never." She said against his lips before deepening it. They were starting to go deeper when Inuyasha's cell phone rang. He ignored it and continued to kiss her insanely.
"Inu…ya…sha…" She moaned under him, "your phone."
"I don't care." He answered as he worked his way towards her shoulders. She wrapped herself around him, melting in his lovemaking. However, he started to get annoyed when his cell phone didn't stop ringing.
"Fuck!" He cursed as he released Kagome and grabbed his cell phone. She groaned in disappointment, making him look at her, desire burning his eyes.
"Come Inuyasha." She said. He smiled and climbed again on her, this time, his cell phone in his hands. He flipped it open, put it on his ear. He then rested next to her as she stared to kiss his face.
"Hello?"
"Inuyasha?" came the voice of Miroku.
"Ye…s" he murmured as Kagome hit a sensitive spot. She looked at him, amusement in her eyes before kissing him over again.
"Inuyasha, are you okay?"
"Yes I am. What do you want?"
"Look man, I know that you don't talk to me this much after our quarrel, but I want to remember you that you will always be a part of our group and we want you back."
"I cannot take you back, not after the way you talked about my girlfriend."
Kagome ceased her actions, her face serious. She looked at Inuyasha who was now caressing her hair while talking.
"We're sorry okay?" shouted Miroku. "I know that we made a mistake. We will be more respectful with her, we promise.
"I want you to apologize from her," responded Inuyasha in an icy tone.
"What! No way! We will not apologize to a simple girl just because you're fucking her. I bet that she was with you right now! How could you do that to us! You're letting that girl way deeply into your skin."
"How dare you?" countered Inuyasha back. "You will not talk about her that way."
"She's such a whore that she made you like her. Is she that good in your bed?"
Inuyasha's face was so angry that Kagome felt terrified. She needed to calm him down so she kissed him on the cheek lightly and murmured in his ear.
"That's okay love. They will be my friends too, just give them some time."
He hugged her tightly before answering.
"Fine Miroku. I will go back but you will have to watch your tongue with her. I love her."
Kagome freed herself from his embrace and looked at him, surprise all over her features. As for Miroku, he went silent like dead.
"I really do," continued Inuyasha while looking lovingly at her."
"Man, I am sorry, I didn't know that."
"That's okay Miroku. I will see you later, okay?"
Inuyasha hung up and looked back at Kagome who was still in shock.
"Did you mean it?" she finally asked. "Do you really love me like I love you?"
"I am completely and totally in love with you."
Before Kagome could respond he went to the drawer and took a big black box.
"Before you came tonight, I prepared this gift for you, for us."
Kagome took the box with trembling hands and opened it. She took from it a beautiful golden necklace that ended in a shape of a semi-heart.
"That's beautiful!" she said, looking at it with tears in her eyes.
Tthat is not all." He took the box and opened it from the inside. Kagome was amazed to see another necklace similar to the one she had between her fingers but that ended with the other half of the heart.
"When I found you Kagome, I found the other part of my heart, that's why we will put theses necklaces to remind ourselves that we belong to each other."
He was not able to finish as Kagome threw herself in his arms making them both fall on the bed, their lips meeting in a hungry yet tender kiss.
Sesshumaru was still in his office although it was late in the night. He had returned from his travel two weeks ago and he had to stay late in his office since then so that the company will not endure any economical crisis. His father had decided to stay in the main company with Anne Higurashi to secure the stability of their status. Sesshuamru suddenly smiled. His father and Higurashi were starting to become close friends and he knew that his father was intending to be more. He shook his head and looked at all the paper work in front of him. It was a good thing that his father, his brother and he still owned 51% of the company.
Since he came back till now he didn't even have the time to talk nor did to see anyone and he had begin to feel tired and alone. He found out that his brother and Kagome became close and he was happy for them, especially for his brother who had matured thanks to Kagome.
A knock on the door diverted his attention.
"Mr. Taisho?" his secretary asked as she entered his office.
"Yes?"
"I will be leaving. Do you need anything from me sir?"
"No. You may go."
She smiled politely before leaving. He stayed in his office, late as usual. He could see the other buildings around him turn off their lights. He sighed deeply before looking at the paper in his hands. He suddenly felt a presence in his office and lifted his gaze to meet that of Rin. He hadn't seen her since that day and he wondered how she had been doing, away from him, perhaps she had forgotten about him.
"Good evening." She said with a very deep voice. She was still standing at the door so he invited her in. she smiled and took the place just in front of him.
"So," she started in a very formal way. "They told me that you were working late, that's why I decided to come and check you."
"How thoughtful of you." He answered with an ironic tone. "How is your brother doing? I suppose that he is happy that our income has decreased."
"I am not here to talk about my brother. I am here to talk about me."
"Then go ahead."
He leaned in his chair, contemplating her with his burning orbs. She looked absolutely stunning; with her new look of smugness.
"I believe that you know by now that Kagome is involved with your brother."
"Yes, I do." He answered with the same overconfident way. Rin looked at him before replying.
"Then you are not with her anymore."
"No."
"That is good to hear."
"I am happy that I have been able to please you, Rin."
She bit her lips so that she won't smile when she heard her name coming from him, from those lips that tortured her for nights. Silence stretched between the two, neither of them dropping his gaze from the other. Rin was the one who talked first.
"So, where does this put us?"
"There is no 'us'." He simply stated, looking at her coldly. "I do not want to get in a relationship with you. We are not meant to be together, I thought that I have already cleared this point."
He was surprised when she stood up, looking at him with a little smile.
"Is this your final answer, Taisho?"
He gulped before nodding once. She smiled wider as she walked to the door.
"Then I will have to forget about you and find another man who will suit me better."
Sesshumaru felt his heart drop to his knees. Another man? Another man will have her, her who was his? He took a deep breath as she opened the door. She gave him a last glance.
"Good bye Taisho."
"Wait!"
He didn't intend to shout but he did. She looked at him, studying his face but couldn't see anything as motions rushed in his eyes.
"Do you mean that there is someone in your life Rin?"
"Why would you care?" She asked with a very low voice. "I mean that there is nothing between us right?"
Sesshumaru looked at the window before replying.
"No, there isn't."
She didn't say anything, she simply left.
Kelly was waiting in Naraku's big living room. It was exactly eight o'clock when he finally emerged from his bedroom. He eyed her before sitting in front of her.
"You wanted to talk, then talk."
She was about to speak when a woman, dressed in only a big masculine shirt made her appearance.
"Would you like me to stay for the night, or should I go?" she asked, a seductive smile on her lips. Naraku motioned to her to get closer, then went to her and took her in his arms.
"I don't know. Convince me."
She wrapped herself around him; her body directly pressed to his and kissed him passionately. He responded to the kiss, leaving a heart broken Kelly, looking at them with pure agony. When they finally broke up the bruising kiss they were both panting for air.
"Go." He ordered. The girl who expected him to let her stay went to the bedroom to change herself. Naraku set in front of Kelly again. He smirked when he saw her pale expression.
"Are you convinced now that I don't love you little girl? I just toyed with you. You were nothing else then a pleasant night or maybe more."
Kelly started to sob as Naraku looked at the picture of himself clung on the wall. He was too attached to her. He needed to be away from her, to hurt her, to stop desiring her. Her sudden words shocked him to no end.
"I am pregnant with your child."
