I don't own Squat
 
Reassurance…

Having left for the village the day before, Kagome and Inuyasha went to gather supplies and to deliver the news to Kaede and the younger version of Shippo. As Miroku and Sango had chosen to stay with the more adult version in the forest. The understanding, that the two Shippos could never meet for it could inadvertently, destroy any chance of his existence at the front of their minds.

So Shippo, who was rather adamant that he be allowed to go, was upset to find he could not…to say the least. But after a few minutes alone with Kagome and Inuyasha, who spoke to him about the reasons why he couldn't. The little fox demon understood, in the end, that in a sense he was going. But as the adult version from the future and not the child…

Hence as they were on their way back to return to where the other three wait. Inuyasha and Kagome began to talk about those who came from their future.

“Inuyasha…are you sure about this?” Kagome said softly. “Are you sure altering Shippo's future is the right thing to do?”

The hanyou hearing her questioning words, looks to his mate with such calm and a gentle wisdom about his youthful features, that she finds herself smiling as this side of Inuyasha. It is a side he shows to no one except her….

“Kagome…it isn't if we are altering the future by choice.” The hanyou said quietly as he gathered her into his arms. “We were dragged into this, according to Shippo, when our son was taken from us.”

“I like that…” The miko smiles softly as her arms wrap around him. Taking strength from his growls of comfort.

“Like what? The hanyou replies with a puzzled expression.

“I like how you said…'our son'.”

“Feh!”

Chuckling as she looks up, Inuyasha presses her lips to hers in a kiss of love and possession, that rocks her to her very core.

“You may not be pregnant with him yet, my Kagome. But looking at him and feeling something for the pup…he can't be anything but our son.”

Her hands caressing his cheek and her words warming his soul as she speaks, Inuyasha can't help but hold her tighter to him.

“So you felt it as well?”

“The need to hold him wench? Yeah I did…” Inuyasha murmured as he rested his chin on top of her head. “Whoever did that to him has to pay.”

“But at what cost Inuyasha?” Kagome whispers quietly. “What if he is supposed to do something great?”

“If he was do have done something great Kagome. It can't have been at the cost you and I have paid apparently.”

“You mean our deaths and Sesshomaru's murder.”

“Yeah.” The hanyou said in response. “One thing you have taught me Kagome, in the years we have spent together….there is always another way to achieve your desire besides death…”

Smiling at his words, Kagome just holds him close and as her lips find his, she kisses him as he did her. With all her heart and soul in it and only parting after a few moments to allow the other to breathe.

“What was that for?” The hanyou whispered breathlessly. His eyes drifting to the tears in her eyes, for a moment he had thought she was sad, but yet her scent belies the fact that she is indeed happy.

“You listened to me…you actually listened to me…”

“I've always listened wench. Even when I didn't show it. I always listened…”

Taking her hand within his claws, he nips at the flesh of her wrist with a gentle touch of his fangs. His eyes showing the pure and simple love for her as they gaze into her brown ones. She responds in kind to the silent admission of his feelings…

“I love you to Inuyasha…now lets go rescue our sons from that hell in the future he comes from…”

“That's my Kagome…” The hanyou laughs, as the expression of stubbornness that he knows so well returns to her delicate features.

“And don't your forget it Inuyasha. Oh and Inuyasha…”

“Yeah…”

“S it…”

THUD

“What the hell was that for!” Inuyasha said in mock outrage, as his eyes couldn't help but smile at her radiant and hopeful features.

“You know I hate it when you call me wench!”
