InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Dreams do come true ❯ Baby questions and Rin's confusion. ( Chapter 17 )

Chapter seventeen, Baby questions and Rin's confusion.

It was now afternoon and the weather outside was getting a bit chilly, as the trio was shown the apartment. It wasn't large or grand, it even had some yellow wallpaper that made InuYasha feel sick to his stomach, but it was good enough for Kagome for she walked around with shiny eyes and a big grin glued upon her deep pink lips.

"I like it!" She exclaimed, taking InuYasha's hand in hers while beaming him a smile. He of course, thought she deserved better. Heck he wanted her in his damn house! But he knew that wouldn't be possible, at least not yet.

"Do you really?" He asked, wanting to make sure. It would be nice coming here for some 'alone time' with her, but at the same time - leaving her alone here wasn't as a pleasant thought.

Kagome nodded eagerly, like a kid who had just been offered a trip to Disney world or something similar.

The little flat wasn't more then a few rooms that could be divided into a bedroom, kitchen and living room. Of course also a small bathroom, with a tub-shower thing. Whoever had lived there before, wasn't the neatest person. The floors clearly needed some polishing and the windows some Windex. But other then that it was okay.

"Well let's go see what I have in my storage, and you can pick out what you want okay?" InuYasha smiled warmly at his woman who was shining like a Christmas tree. Sorano also was happy, it was obvious her daddy liked Kagome. And now maybe they could 'date' and then she could move in with them instead of here!

"Let's go sign some papers, before we go check out the things." InuYasha led his two women out of the little apartment, down to the car that was parked out front.

Sesshoumaru sat in his livingroom, waiting for Rin. She was in his bedroom getting into some other clothes, that he'd packed for her. He had no intentions of letting her return to that horrible place, it wasn't safe. Now he just needed to tell her that and also describe the mating thing for her. Knowing that would mean he'd have to say something about the pregnancy.

His dark-headed beauty soon emerged from his room, wearing a simple white dress that reached down to her mid-thigh. Her hair was loose, just the way he liked it. That braid of hers made her look so young, so innocent. While the free-flowing black-brown hair was reflecting her real age and a woman clearly reserved for him.

Barefooted she made her way over to him on the couch. He had yet again cast the conceal spell over his features, mostly out of habit than anything else. He motioned her to sit down on his lap, which she did - smiling.

"Sesshou..." her soft voice penetrated Sesshoumaru's mind, lulled his senses. He loved the way she said his name. For some reason it always made his stomach turn into a little knot that could easily be translated as need. He knew he'd never grow tired of her, not even after a thousand years.

After Rin noticed she had his attention, she continued. "Why do you hide yourself?" Her soft small hand caressed his smooth face, in a sad loving manner. She blinked twice when he shrugged and let the mask fall. How she a normal woman, no one special, had been blessed to be the only female in this mans life - she didn't know, nor question.

"Rin, we have to talk." His voice always somewhat cold and detached. But his eyes danced like molten lava, making her shiver as she gazed into them. She knew it was serious when he grabbed her free hand in his, intertwining the stubby nail graced digits with his clawed ones.

"I've mated with you." He confessed, not knowing if she'd know what that meant. Her eyes went wide, "Mated?" Rin was an intelligent woman, mating was something animals did. "W-what d-do you mean, exactly?" She stuttered,moving around in his lap.

Sesshoumaru took a deep breath before he answered, explaining the way demons bonded - but leaving out the whole "you're pregnant part."

The little female in his lap wasn't unhappy about the news, she was actually really excited. But also scared, living with a man like Sesshoumaru - for the rest of her life! Was just a bit to much to handle. It was enough that when the few times she saw him, he made her incredibly aroused by his mere presence.

How the hell would she be able to keep her paws of this hunk of male, seeing him on a daily basis - sharing his bed....'oh Kami.' Rin blushed prettily as a 'few' erotic images flashed before her mind's eye.

Sesshoumaru could sense her thoughts, and the scent of her arousal - which forced him to bite back a dark growl. He wanted her, but at the same time he couldn't do it until the whole truth was out in the air. It would be wrong to lie, keep it from her.

"Rin," he whispered her name softly while untangling their fingers, only to move his palm and rest it on her stomach. He noticed her eyes following his movement, slightly glossing over with confusion as he now drew small symbols of affection on her cloth covered skin.

She gasped when she heard him tell her something, something that couldn't be possible! Well technically it could, but she was on the pill, which of course wasn't 100%. "H-how?" She sputtered, this way to much! Was she ready for this?

Sesshoumaru chuckled darkly, he loved it when this woman displayed a million emotions in one second. Confusion, anger, fear, happiness and back to confusion.

"It's part of the ritual," he explained, as Rin's lip was now quivering. He hadn't meant it for her to start crying, never did he want to cause her sadness.

"So you're saying..." her voice but a whisper now, controlling the overwhelming emotions that erupted inside. "I'm going to be a mother, and live here with you? As your wife?" Sesshoumaru had almost forgot about the human tradition that was marriage, but of course that would be equal to mating. So he nodded.

Rin couldn't contain her excitement of being with him, til the end of time. So she threw her arms around his neck kissing him fiercely and passionate. Sesshoumaru wasn't late to follow the intentions of his mate, not now when she was there - safe with him.

He had already called his lawyer when she was of changing clothes. Now he'd have his revenge, deliver damage on those that had tried to kill what was his.

Sorano sat across the table from her father and Kagome, giggling. They had been to the storage and picked out a few things - if not all things, for Kagome's apartment. And then scheduled a meeting with Genteken, the owner of the hospital and Kirara's husband to be.

But right now, they were eating at a fast-food place. The reason why little Sorano was giggling was because she had just asked her daddy how babies were made. And the expression on his face....well it was priceless.

Sorano already knew how babies were made, Uncle Sess had told her. But he had also instructed her not to say anything to her dad, but instead ask him the same question. He had promised it would be fun, and it was - it really was. InuYasha almost choked on a damn fry when Sorano had opened her mouth and asked the question he had dreaded to answer.

Kagome in turn, had turned away blushing. Clearly letting the man beside her take care of that department. InuYasha moved in his seat that all of the sudden got really uncomfortable. He bet he looked pretty funny, a grown man blushing like he'd just been kissed for the first time, or something. His little eight-year old angel seemed to think so anyway.

"Can we talk about this when we get home?" He tried, after clearing his throat many times. Fighting back the redness on his cheeks, this was horrible! His little innocent sweetheart didn't need to know this sort of things.

"Sure daddy." Sorano saw his discomfort but at the same time thought it was hilarious. Uncle Sess had been right, she made a mental note to call and tell him that later. InuYasha in turn, let out a breath. Damn that had been close. He could distract her for the rest of the day, make her forget.

Kagome snickered at the duo, the glint in Sorano's eye was a hint that she already knew, and that made Kagome now almost burst out laughing. However, she kept it back, like the lady she was. Straightening her back in the plastic chair, she continued consuming the food on her tray.

Later that night...

InuYasha sat in his livingroom couch, Kagome tucked under his arm while they watched a movie. Sorano already asleep, never asking that question again, as he had kept her occupied all day. Clearly she must of forgotten. Mission accomplished.

Kagome wiggled a little, to get more comfortable under his embrace. Why the hell were they watching tv when they could do something way more fun?! That thought suddenly rushed into InuYasha, making him feel completely stupid.

He was about to advance on the beauty in the couch when suddenly an eerie feeling came over him, someone was close. Someone who he didn't know and were trying to conceal his scent! An intruder!?

Shooting up into a standing position, he startled Kagome so badly she fell out of the couch hitting the floor with a horrible crash sound. "Ouch!" She exclaimed, wanting to cuss InuYasha out for making such a sudden move without warning her. However, as she turned to face him she saw him standing like a statue - breathing hard. His muscles so tense and his ears rigid, he appeared like he was trying to listen.

The whole scene made her shiver, what was wrong?

Before she even had a chance to ask anything, the hanyou was out of the room with a blur - racing toward his garage. Kagome stood and bolted after him, killing the fear that threatened to overtake her limbs. She needed to see what was happening, be prepared to call the cops or protect Sorano.

InuYasha raced into the connecting car-building, ripping the door open. Not even bothering turning on the light, as his golden eyes could see clearly in the dark. The presence of another person was much stronger in here, and a foul stench of tainted demon blood. How dare a half-breed like this one, break into his house.

Wanting nothing more then to keep Kagome and his little girl safe, InuYasha didn't even try to stop his inner demon that now ripped through his skin. The stripes and colors of his blood beast painted his features. "Show your self" he snarled, flexing his steel-like claws, getting ready for some head rolling.

His scowling gaze caught a movement, before the person even had a chance to do anything further - InuYasha had him pinned up against the wall by the throat.

"What the fuck do you want?" He hissed, baring his fangs in an intimidating manner. Quickly noticing the creature he had before him was a spider hanyou.

But something wasn't right with this, thing. No fear or any scent of emotion came from it, just the putrid stench of dirty blood. The man didn't even seem to be able to speak, nor move - just allowing InuYasha to squeeze the life slowly out of him while questioning his presence.

"You're not here...are you" it wasn't a question, as InuYasha now swiped his claws across the mans torso - ripping him to pieces. The body slumped and landed in front of him, turning into something small and brown.

Kagome's soft hand on his shoulder, made him relax and turn back into his normal form. Her scent wrapped around his head like a cotton cloud, trapping his beast once again, inside.

"W-what h-happened?" She stammered, supporting herself against his back. It had all been a big blur, a mixture of colors. But the moment InuYasha had turned into his demon she had felt something literary pull in her soul, make her hands pulsate and glow. It was all so very confusion. But letting her inner voice speak and guide her way, Kagome found it was her hands that made his blood stop seething. Her touch that calmed him, how she knew she couldn't comprehend. Just that she did.

InuYasha didn't answer her, but instead bent down to pick up the object before him. "What the hell...?" flipping the wooden piece in his hand he kept staring at it with his amber eyes, "a doll?"

It appeared to be a little wooden figurine. A small body, carved from some sort of tree, blood stained and wrapped in a stand of black hair. What black magic was this? Why did someone want to hurt his family? It couldn't be Mr. Yung...could it?

Feeling Kagome still behind him, InuYasha spun around pulling her quivering body into a tight embrace. If this truly was that evil mans doing, he had just started a war - Sesshoumaru would know what to do.

His cold ass brother, would know exactly what to do...
