Midnight Stalker

Chapter 8

Kagome's Promise

~*~*~*

After cleaning up the mess and convincing Inuyasha to finally let her go to work, She arrived. The doctor's office she worked at didn't open till 10am but she wanted to run some errands before work but because of Inuyasha she had 2 minutes to spar.

Nothing happened at work because most of her patients had to cancel or reschedule their appointments. She was going to go home but before she did she had one last patient to see.

KNOCK KNOCK

"Hold on ~Cough, cough~ I'm coming"

An old women opened the small wooden door and put on a huge smile for Kagome.

"Ah child, just who I wanted to talk to."

"Hello Kaede how are you feeling today?"

"I am feeling better my child ~Cough~ why don't you come in."

Kaede move from the doorway and Kagome entered and moved to sit on the couch where Kaede left knitting needles and yarn. Shippo was sitting on a red cushion in front of the T.V. watching a little kid cartoon teaching them about numbers and letters. When Shippo looked behind him he noticed Kagome and jumped up and ran to her.

"KAGOME!!!!!!"

"Hi Shippo… I got something for you…."

Kagome pulled out a big red lollypop and shippo snatched it up and went back to his cushion to finish his show.

"Thanks Kagome!" He said over his shoulder.

"Your welcome … Kaede I wanted to drop off some medicine. Sango said you've been sick for a while now."

"Thank you child but medicine will not help, I am just getting old and my time in this world is ending."

"At least let me give you some cough medicine."

"Thank you … Kagome I would like to ask you a question."

"Alright …"

"Shippo can you please go play with the toys in your room?"

"OK!"

After Shippo turned off the TV he ran to Kagome and gave her one last hug before running into his room and shutting the door.

"I wanted to talk to you about Shippo … When I leave this world he will need a place to live and I was hoping he could live with you and Inuyasha?"

Kagome couldn't speak for several minuets then finely she said

"I will have to talk to Inuyasha before I answer you Kaede"

"I understand child, please call me when you've decided."

"I will, Kaede. I must be leaving now but I will come back next week to see how you are."

Kaede and Kagome said there good byes and Kagome left to go home.

~15 Minutes Later~

Kagome walked into her apartment building and up to the mailboxes on the wall. She took out a small bronze key and put it in box 14 and turned it. She grabbed a few bills and a magazine full of furniture. "What a waste of paper." Kagome pouted. She turned around and headed upstairs to her apartment.

Kagome unlocked her door and walked in then shut it with her foot. She put the mail on the little table by the door along with her keys. She walked up to the phone and looked and the answering machine and saw that there were no messages while she was taking off her coat and shoes. Kagome walked into the kitchen and started the coffee machine when she felt two strong arms wrap around her waste pulling her to a strong chest. Kagome stiffened and couldn't think of what to do when she suddenly felt light kissing on her neck.

"FOR CRYING OUT LOUD INUYASHA YOU SCARED ME HALF TO DEATH!!!" Kagome screamed while turning around.

"I'm sorry Kagome but I couldn't resist, you are just so beautiful!" Inuyasha replied while laughing a little bit.

Kagome smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck while Inuyasha wrapped his around her waist.

"Inuyasha… Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"Do you remember Shippo? The little boy that lives in Sango's Apartment building?"

"The one who lives with the old hag?"

"INUYASHA!!! That is not very nice!! And yes he lives with Keade"

"What about him."

"Well… I went to their apartment after work and talked to keade, She isn't doing to well these days and she asked me… she asked me… um…"

"What did she ask?"

"She asked… if we could… um … if we could adopted Shippo"

"WHAT!! ADOPTED THAT BRAT!! No way am I going to adopted that, that monster!!"

"HOW COULD YOU BE SO MEAN!" Kagome yelled while pushing Inuyasha away then walked over to the coach and sat down crossing her arms.

Inuyasha watched Kagome scowl at him then turned her back on him huffing.

"Come on Kagome don't be mad"

"…"

"Kagome…"

"…"

Inuyasha walked over to Kagome and Knelt in front of her.

"Kagome… I wanted us to have our own kids."

Kagome snapped her head at Inuyasha and gave him a look that scared the birds on their window to the other side of town and Inuyasha gulped very loudly.

"INUYASHA, HOW COULD YOU BE SO SELFISH!!! Of course we'll have our own children but what about shippo… who will he have?

"…Kagome…… you do have a point and I'm sorry I yelled, If it means that much to you then we can adopt shippo… we will have more then enough room in the new house." Inuyasha replied smiling

Kagome jumped off the couch with tears in her eyes and hugged Inuyasha.

"Thank you so much Inuyasha,… I have to call Keade!!"
