InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Baby Love ❯ Mirror Image ( Chapter 10 )

A/N: It was awesome!!! Matt is absolutely by far the best guy ever. Felina, I took your advice on the food and it went great, we went to this little eatery where they served the best three cheese ravioli then afterward, I know this will sound corny but he took me on a gondola ride around the town we're staying in. Then he…*blush*… put his arm around me, because I was cold. Ahhhhhhh, I feel so happy.

 

Chapter 11

 

Miroku and Sango sat watching as Inuyasha went silently about laying out a plan for what seemed to be a house, a rather large one at that.

“What do you think he's building?” Sango questioned softly

“Who knows, it looks like a house, but who would he build it for?” Miroku responded just as quietly. The last time anyone had dared talk to Inuyasha they had found their lives threatened by the crazed hanyou. It appeared that the demon instincts in Inuyasha held control over him now, despite the very real presence of Tetsuiaga hanging limply at his side. The sword was still doing its job by keeping Inuyasha reasonable but other than that was of little to no value in the situation.

“The only way I can think of to get him back to normal is to bring Kagome back, but it does not appear that that will happen anytime soon, if ever.” Sango said feeling the weight of her lost friend on her heart.

“Do not worry Sango, Kagome will come back in time, it is not in her heart to stay away from Shippo, or Inuyasha for so long, she cannot do it.” He said reassuringly. Sango felt comfort at his words, that is until she felt the familiar discomfort of his hand on her bum.

“Miroku remove your hand and prepare to run for your life.” She said, her right eye twitching sporadically with each word. Miroku quickly hastened to his feet and made his get away. He was followed ten seconds later by an irate demon-slayer riding a large fire-cat through the skies.

Finally they are gone. I can build this house for her in peace now. She must come back when she sees what I have made for her and the pup. These thoughts were coming from Inuyasha's barely restrained demon side. The feel of that irritating monk, and the slightly less irritating demon-slayer sitting on the fallen logs had bothered him to no end. How was he expected to finish his mate's house without solitude? It was impossible.

You have got to snap out of it man. If she wants to leave you in the dust then go ahead and let her. She's right, you'd be better off with Kikyo and at least you could count on her being there for you.

There was that wimpy human voice of his again. The inu-youkai released a heavy sigh. That side always thought it knew what was best for it and the rest of the world. It had no clue. If it had just listened to him in the first place none of this would have happened and his mate would still be wrapped safely in his arms. Ruthlessly shoving it back into its submissive role he returned to work on the house he planned to build for her. It had to be bigger than most because they were to fill it up with little children running and laughing and besides, she deserved more.

OK, now all we have to do is raise the sides and we will have ourselves the beginning of a house.

Satisfied that the human side of him would bother him no longer he went back to work, blocking out all but the important sounds and thinking of what kind of furniture his mate would like best, classical or handmade?

 

Waking in the well house was one thing, but to wake up in a well house with a wailing baby was even weirder.

“What's going on?” Kagome muttered to herself, picking up Alexei, as she recalled everything she'd said and done. Nosing into her neck Alexei's breathing evened out, comforted by the smell of his parents that was entwined in her body. His small pudgy little body stiffened with outrage when she held him away from her, taking away the scent that was so sweet to his nose. Once again opening his mouth, he prepared an all out scream war with this woman who looked, sounded, and smelled like her but couldn't possibly be her. His mother always knew what to do, this woman obviously did not. All of a sudden a nipple was plopped into his mouth, and his rage was momentarily diverted as he sucked happily and a small smile formed on his face. But the war was far from over he told this woman silently, I will find out what you have done to her and then you shall pay.

The small inu's thoughts went unnoticed by Kagome who was too enthralled with her reflection in the entrance way mirror. She had been walking into the house, looking in confusion at the various emotions crossing Alexei's face, all of them seeming to be a form of anger, when a bright kanji had caught her eye. Looking up to see why there was a kanji on the mirror, she'd immediately gone ramrod straight when she noticed that it was on her not the mirror. Reaching up to her neck she jerked her fingers back in stunned surprise as the kanji warmed beneath her fingers. A sudden swirling in the mirror had her peering closely at it once more. The swirling fogs appeared to be clearing to a scene from Feudal Japan, wait was that Inuyasha? All of sudden he lifted his head sharply and looked directly her way. The shock of seeing his golden eyes so close and yet so far away made her drop her hand quickly from her neck. Helpless she watched as the mirror image faded from her view.

 

Ha I told you she wants us! Why else would she be calling us with the kanji? The demon in Inuyasha was challenging the human once more.

She didn't know what she was doing, knowing Kagome it was an accident, you moron. He delivered back scathingly

Fool you know not of what you speak, she wants us to come get her, but she will have to wait, it is her punishment for running away from us last night. The demon thought, proud of itself for his clever punishing methods.

You idiot. The human Inuyasha replied. Knowing it was useless to argue; he simply sat back and wondered why his demonic side sounded so much like that rat bastard Sesshomaru.

 

Morning, Tokyo 1998

 

Kagome awoke to the familiar smells of coffee, rice and egg. Getting out of bed eagerly, she checked on chibi….. Alexei before flinging the door to her room wide to face her first official Inuyasha-less day. Immediately the door was slammed shut as Kagome rushed to the bathroom to empty her stomach. Leaning over the toilet she was grateful to see that it was just dry-heaves and nothing serious because she hadn't eaten last night. Ready to head downstairs once more, the sickening smells that she usually loved forced her back to the toilet bowl.

What's going on with me? I love breakfast. Am I really that scared of life without Inuyasha?

A sudden swift barely noticeable movement in her stomach made Kagome gasp in shock and denial. Pressing her hand to her mouth, she shook her head no.

It can't be. Not after one night. No. Mom is going to kill me.

Removing her hand from her lips and placing it over the new life in her stomach, Kagome wondered solemnly what she could do.

 

What do you guys think? I know babies don't start moving that fast but I kind of had to put that in there. We all know Kagome can be a little dense sometimes, so I gave her an impossible to ignore hint.

Responses to reviews:

Fluffyrachel: Kikyo strikes me as a really sad person. I do not like how she is always interfering with Kagome and Inuyasha's relationship. If not for her they would have been together a long time ago.

Si-chan4051: Thanks please keep reading and reviewing.

DragonMistress325: You spelled it right. Don't worry they will be together again in about two chapters.

Kagomesdance: She's really going to freak in the next chapter, because she thinks Inuyasha won't take care of them and for other reasons to be revealed next chapter.
