Keeping Secrets Is Futile
Chapter Nine) New Ideas

Kagome didn’t know how long she stood there, staring at nothing with a shocked look on her face. Sesshomaru had disappeared after of informing her of that…but Kagome couldn’t move. She took notice of the fact that it was a full moon and something inside her changed. A piercing pain went strait through her body, but she ignored it, too shocked at everything else to notice. She took a note of the fact that it was getting late and it was hard to see in front of her. But she didn’t move. She didn’t say a word as she stared in front of her at nothing in particular.


She could be carrying the most deadly youkai alive child.


She really hoped she wasn’t.


****

Inuyasha stared down at Kagome from above for almost an hour. He noticed she didn’t move a muscle, barely even took a breath. But he continued to watch her. He was worried as well. If she was carrying a hanyou pup…. She could die. The people and youkai around her would hunt her down and kill her. It was disgusting in both creatures’ eyes if she were to bear this child. That was the scariest part of all.


He had come and sat above her when Sesshomaru left. He had no idea why Sesshomaru would want to talk to Kagome, didn’t stay around to find out.
But with how shocked Kagome was at the moment….he bet it was good.


Realizing it was getting late and they had yet to finish their talk, he jumped down from the tree and landed behind her.


“Kagome…” he whispered delicately and watched with a frown as she flinched and took a step foreword. Inuyasha sighed and reached for her wrist, turning her to look at him. She was crying again and Inuyasha’s ears flattened in guilt unconsciously.


Kagome wiped her eyes with the hand Inuyasha didn’t have and looked up to him. She sobbed and closed her eyes, whispering pathetically in her eyes, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”


Inuyasha closed his eyes and put his arms around her, crushing her to his chest, “Don’t Kagome.” he pleaded in her ear, “ Don’t cry. Please don’t cry. You know I hate it when you do...”


Kagome sniffed and buried her face in his kimono, trying to hide from everything. Trying to hide from her future. Trying to hide from Sesshomaru, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kilala, Inuyasha…. Trying to hide from the truth she had to live with.


Inuyasha sighed and picked her up, jumping into the nearest tree. He held Kagome in his lap, waiting for her to pull herself together. She was strong, he knew she could get over this initial shock of whatever Sesshomaru said. Oddly, it started to rain, so Inuyasha decided to stay where they were for the night. It would probably take him at least five minutes to get back to the village and by then they’d both be soaked.


Kagome took deep, shaky breaths to get herself under control. She wasn’t usually like this, so it was nerve wrecking. She kept a death grip on Inuyasha’s kimono as she looked around. Her eyes widened as she noticed she was in a tree. She let out a squeak of surprise and crushed herself to Inuyasha’s chest. No need to die anytime soon. She heard Inuyasha let out a grunt and Kagome noticed she had grabbed Inuyasha around the neck, crushing his throat to her shoulder.


“Oh my god, I’m sorry!” she said and let go of him, letting him move his head away. “Why are we in a tree, Inuyasha? Shouldn’t we go back to Kaede’s?”


“if you want to get soaked. We’re in a tree because it’s the only place we can be that won’t be wet.”


“Oh….okay, I guess.” Kagome mumbled and leaned back against his chest, resting gently. She closed her eyes and sighed.


“Kagome, we need to continue.” Inuyasha said and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her protectively closer.


Kagome snuggled further to him, “I know… but what I am I going to do?”


You’re going to do nothing. You’re going to stay in Kaede’s hut. No leaving without me. The villagers will want to kill you, you know. I mean, you’re not even seventeen. Most girls your age have pup- I mean, kids by now.”


“What are we going to tell everyone?”


“…I… I guess we won’t let anyone know.”


“How?”


“You̵ 7;re not leaving Kaede’s hut. You don’t really have much of a choice.” he mumbled.


“You know I can’t do that! It’ll kill me!” she yelled and leaned back so she could look him in the eye.


Inuyasha sighed, “There’s only one other way.”


“What’s that? And don’t tell me I can just stay in my time. There’s NO way I’m having a hanyou baby in my time. What would the doctors think?”


He shook his head, “No, not that. A fake marriage. You can decide who, but it’s the only way the villagers won’t completely shun you.” Inuyasha explained and looked away from her.


“A fake… marriage? Are you kidding? I’d have no choice, but to marry your brother or you! The baby’s a hanyou, remember?”


You’re not marrying my brother, Kagome. Even if it is fake, I would not allow that bastard to even look at you.” he stated with a growl, moving her even closer to him.


Inside, Kagome was jumping with joy. She was going to marry him! Even if it was fake! It was so exciting! Holding back her happiness, “Then we have to get married, Inuyasha. WE don’t really…have a choice.”


****


“You’re what?!” Sango screamed the next morning.


“It’s only fake, Sango. Nothing’s going to change. We’ll have Kaede announce us, but it won’t be real. Anyway, the baby’s a hanyou, so I’ll need his advice on it. I can’t do this myself.” Kagome reassured her best friend.


Sango stomped out of the hut, Kagome quickly following. If Kagome didn’t know better, she’d say Sango was acting jealous. But that was crazy. Sango loved Miroku. It was obvious.


“Sango, what’s wrong with it?!”


“You can’t get married, Kagome! You’re seventeen! What will your mother say?! He’s so horrible to you, he makes fun of you whenever he can, he’s rude, arrogant, violent, and so disrespectful!”


“I don’t have a choice, Sango! It’s either him or Sesshomaru! And one, Sesshomaru would never agree, two, neither would Inuyasha, and three, if I’m married to Inuyasha, no one will question me while we’re traveling! It’ll work out fine!” Kagome yelled. This really wasn’t like Sango. She wasn’t being reasonable in any way!


“Fine! Do what you want! But he’s going to hurt you even more than he does now, Kagome!”


“Hey! I do not, Sango!”


Both girls looked up to see Inuyasha sitting in one of the trees close to the hut. He was glaring daggers at Sango and growling quietly.


“Stay out of this, Inuyasha!” Sango yelled to the irritated hanyou, “This is probably all your fault, anyway!”


“My fault? My fault?! How is any of this my fault? It wasn’t MY idea for her to get drunk! It wasn’t MY fault she went to the nearest youkai and got pregnant! It wasn’t MY fault-”


“Alright! I get it! But I bet it’s YOUR fault this happened to her in the first place!”


“I didn’t fuck her!”


“Yeah, maybe, but it is your fault she wants a life that doesn’t include this era because you’re so mean to her! Maybe if you were civil, she wouldn’t want so much freedom!”


“Shut up, you guys!”


They both turned to a very unhappy Kagome.


“It was MY fault! Now shut up!” she yelled at them both.


“See!”


“Inuyasha, sit!”


*thump*

“Augh! You baka, you never shut up! We have to do this, Sango, we don’t have a choice.” Kagome had calmed down and was staring at the hanyou in the ground. Inuyasha picked himself up and glared at Kagome.


Sango suddenly sighed and her whole profile changed in a second. Her eyes were drooped in sadness and her body slumped, “I’m sorry, Kagome. It’s just….I never thought you would get married before me… Especially to that idiot. I figured you’d get the idea that he’s not worth your time” Inuyasha started growling at her again, “You’re like my little sister, it’s not right for you to get married.”


Kagome rolled her eyes and smiled, “Is that all? Sango, it’s not a real marriage, I just need some sort of protection. I don’t wont to hide for the five months of my pregnancy. I need some sort of freedom and going back to my time is out of the question.”


“If you say so, Kags”

Alright! That’s all! Hope you all liked this chapter…. Quite the turn of events… hehehe….

*Important* I’ve made my decision! After reading about 20 reviews, it seems that it is about equal for both guys… so this is what I’m going to do.

To all of those who chose Inuyasha, the side of the story where he is the father will be on Media Miner only because there was more votes for Inu on Media. I’ll have the url on my bio page.

To all those people that chose Sesshomaru for the father: That story will be on FanFiction. I repeat, for the people that want Sesshomaru to be the father, it will be on FanFiction.

Note! If you are going to read the story where Sess is the father, it will be MUCH longer. I’ll have to go into their relationship and stuff, so it will be A LOT longer. And it will be only two parts. The story where Inu is the father, the first two parts will be shorter, but I’m going to add in a Part Three. I hope that’s not too confusing! Alright! That’s all from me! Read and Review!
