Chapter 18: Lover's Conversation

~~~~~~~~~~~~~-

"InuYasha," Kagome repeated, "What do you need to talk to me about?" InuYasha took a deep breath.

"Kagome I need you to listen closely." Kagome looked slightly impatient.

"Ok I will. But hurry. I need to tell you something too." InuYasha sighed.

"Actually lets keep walking. I brought some crackers and dried bread to feed to the ducks." Kagome sighed impatiently.

"Ok. But I want to feed the ducks too." InuYasha nodded. He thought about what he had in his pocket, and wondered what her answer would be.

They walked in silence for a little while when they came across the furious Sango and the unconscious Miroku.

"What happened Sango?" Kagome asked with a knowing grin.

"Well, we just passed by an underwear shop. Miroku saw some underwear that he thought would look good on him and so we went into the store. He went to go try it on and came out to show me. Imagine that. He wanted to show me!" Sango shivered. "But that's not the worst of it. Guess what he was trying to show me?"

Kagome started laughing. "I don't know."

"He tried to show me him in a thong! And he went `Well Sango how do I look?' And than he turned around! I went, `Damn Miroku I don't want to see your ass! It's probably as white as the moon!' He laughed and said `Do you want to check?' and I told him Hell no and whacked him over the head with a hanger." Sango took in a deep breath, and put her hands to her burning face. "That was so embarrassing!"

Kagome giggled and put her hand to her mouth to hide her smile. "No doubt."

Sango stuck her tongue out at Kagome. "You just remember that Kags." Sango thought about something she had been thinking about. "Kags, I need to talk to you privately." Sango pulled Kagome over to the other side of the walkway. "Kags do you know what an angelic miko is?"

"Yeah. Isn't that a female who has magical powers that are like a priestess'?"

Sango nodded. "Something like that. An Angelic Miko is a female who has very strong healing, enchanting, and midwife powers. They are usually extremely beautiful and are always happy. Or most of the time. They usually suffer terrible things in their lifetimes that just about kill them. Angelic Mikos are extremely rare, and appear only once every three thousand years. When they appear it means that something very huge is going to happen in the Universe. Angelic Mikos have a certain destiny, and if they don't fulfill their destinies the world dissolves into chaos." Kagome nodded.

"What does this have to do with anything?"

Sango shook her head. She couldn't tell Kagome, it was forbidden. She had to figure it out on her own. She just hoped she figured it out soon. "Nothing. But is there something you would like to talk to me about?" Sango asked.

Kagome looked around. Seeing that InuYasha was still on the other side of the walkway she took a breath. "Yes there is." She took another breath, and started. "Sango I'm pregnant."

"WHAT!"

"Shhh! I don't' want InuYasha to find out until I tell him!" Sango nodded.

"Whose baby?" Kagome took a breath.

"Hojo's."

"WHAT!"

"SHHHHH!" InuYasha looked over to where they were standing. He smiled at Kagome and she smiled back.

"Shouldn't you have been showing by now?" Sango asked, unable to believe this piece of news.

"I am." Sango looked closer at Kagome when she turned. There was a slight bulge in her belly.

"Oh, shit! You are!" Kagome shook her head.

"Sango, will you stand by me in my pregnancy, even if I am a cruel witch?" Sango nodded. It was impossible for Kagome to be mean, especially since she was an…

"Yes I will. Through thick and thin. Death and life." Kagome grinned.

"Thank you Sango. But please don't tell Miroku. I'll tell him myself."

"Ok, but when are you going to tell InuYasha?"

"When we get to the duck pond."

"And that will be….?"

"Soon."

"Don't keep it from him too long." Sango looked at her friend. InuYasha loved her so much. But did she love him…

"I won't. We're going to the duck pond as soon as we leave you." Sango grinned.

"In that case…" Sango grabbed the still semi-unconscious Miroku. "I'll be leaving you. Or I guess, we'll be leaving you." Kagome smiled.

"Thank you Sango."

"Its no problem." Kagome walked back over to InuYasha and they waved to Sango and Miroku together.

"Lets get going." InuYasha said to the now quiet Kagome. Kagome let InuYasha steer her in the direction they were going. They walked in quiet silence. They reached the hill before the duck pond and Kagome gulped. She didn't want to tell InuYasha but she owed it to him…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-

Kouga sat on the couch in his living room. He was once again thinking about Kagome. He stared at the phone for what seemed like ever until he got the courage to call. Someone picked up on the first ring.

"Hello."

Kouga gulped. "Hello. Is Kagome there?

"No she isn't. May I take a message?"

"Yes please. Can you ask her to call Kouga at 778-6119 when she gets back?"

"Sure."

"Thank you." Kouga hung up the phone gently. `Oh Kagome, I think I love… Hey wait, did I just think of Kagome and love…?' Kouga thought to himself. `Yes I did, that means…Holy shit! I love Kagome! But how? I mean I've never talked to her for long or even looked at her…' Kouga blushed. He had been looking at her lately… Kouga shook his head. Whatever power Kikyou had, it wasn't as strong as Kagome's. He'd just have to get to know Kagome a little better, and maybe just maybe, he'd ask her to marry him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Kagome and InuYasha arrived at the duck pond a couple minutes later. InuYasha gave Kagome a handful of bread and they silently fed the ducks.

"I need to…"

"I need to…" Kagome and InuYasha said in usion. InuYasha blushed. "You go first." Kagome breathed in deeply and began.

"InuYasha you have to promise not to hate me." InuYasha nodded. He couldn't hate Kagome if she were to kill him.

"I promise."

"Ok, well, uh, this is kind of hard to say." InuYasha silently fed the ducks, Kagome close beside him.

"Go on." Kagome swallowed. Why was this so difficult?

"InuYasha I'm, I'm, I'm… PREGNANT!" Kagome blurted out. InuYasha looked at her shocked. He realized why now she had made him promise not to hate her. But even if he hadn't made that promise he would still love her.

"With whose baby?" He whispered.

"Hojo's." InuYasha gasped and his amber eyes burned fiercely.

"Don't worry Kagome I'll get him…"

"InuYasha you have to promise me you won't go after him."

"But…"

"Promise!" InuYasha sighed.

"I promise." Kagome turned to him.

"Now what do you want to talk to me about?" InuYasha gulped. He looked into Kagome's eyes and got down on one knee. Kagome breathed in sharply. He couldn't be. No he wasn't…

"Kagome Higurashi, will you marry me?"
