Tears of Blood

DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!
Sorry I’ve taken so long on updating, but I’ve been sick for the past two weeks!
Also, I recently watched the english version of episode 148 of InuYasha, and I am quite ticked off at Naraku right now.
Ninka: What did he do?
Youka: Yeah, what?
Setsuna: He broke the biggest rule in the rule-book for InuYasha Fan-girls!
Both: Which rule is that?
Setsuna: Never diss InuYasha’s ears!
Ninka: (Out-raged) NARAKU DID WHAT?
Youka: HE DISSED THE EARS?
Setsuna: (Nodding) Yep, he said, and I quote; “Ugly dog ears…”, while disguised as Kikyo. Though I have a deep hatred for Kikyo, it was wrong of Naraku to say that while disguised as her.
Further notation; she died hating him, and even though Kikyo betrayed InuYasha, by sealing him to the tree, he “died” still loving her. That is why he looked so peaceful sleeping under Kikyo’s spell.
Ninka: Review-box time!
Youka: This review is from ‘Pure Shikon’, it says:
Thank you. I would like to hear your theory, not because I doubt you,
but it would be interesting to know. How did you find out Inuyasha's 202
yrs. old! Also, do you know how many chapters are left? I love your
story, and thanks again! Don't forget to update!

What is your response, Setsuna?
Setsuna: I don’t know how many more chapters are left, but as for me knowing InuYasha’s physical age.
By watching the third InuYasha movie, I found out that InuYasha is 200 years old (150, not counting the 50 years spent under seal-ment), and for the story I added the 2 years that had occurred in story time from the start of the series (One year spent hunting down Naraku & killing him, and one year spent on Kagome’s morning InuYasha’s “death” and his returning to her). That is how I figured that InuYasha is 202 years old!
In other news; for those who are waiting on me to e-mail my ‘InuYasha is the reincarnation of Midoriko’ theory to them, you’ll have to be patient with me because I have to type it up first, and my brain is farting on me, again. So it may take some-time to type it and e-mail it to those who are waiting.
Now, without further delay!
Here is Chapter 44!
Please Enjoy!

Ch. 44
Back to Normal, Or Is It?
-------------------------------------------
The Next Morning…
“Hey Kagome, how is he…?”, Sango asks as she walks into the hut, but suddenly stops walking.
“What’s wrong, Sango?”, Miroku questions.
“Look!”, she says, pointing.
Her husband looks at what she was pointing to.
InuYasha lies on his side with Kagome tucked in the curve of his body; his arms embracing her, he was wearing his fire-rat haori and hakama.
(A/N: Yah! He’s back in his normal clothes!)
“They’re so cute! I’m happy for them, that they got together!”, Sango coos.
A golden eye opens up and glares at them, “Do you mind! We’re trying to sleep!”, InuYasha growls.
“You’ve been engaged for only two months, and you’re already sharing a bed”, Miroku snickers.
InuYasha quickly, yet carefully sits up, his ears laid back against his skull, “It isn’t like that, you lech!”, he loudly growls, anger flaring in his eyes.
“What is going on?”, Kagome yawns, as she sits up.
“There goes precious cuddle-time…”, InuYasha groans.
“So Kagome, when are you and InuYasha going to have your first child?”, Miroku asks.
Kagome darkly blushes, including her ears.
“I’m going to kill you for that comment, lecher!”, InuYasha growls, his face equally as red as Kagome’s.
Miroku dashes for the door with InuYasha close behind; swiping his claws at him.
“I hope InuYasha doesn’t hurt Miroku too badly, I still need him to take care of his children”, Sango says.
“InuYasha is just flustered”, Kagome laughs.
“Aahh!”, Miroku screams.
The girls look at each-other, before rushing out the door to find out what happened.
In a nearby tree, they see Miroku with his hands tied behind his back, hanging from the tree like a piñata, with a large lump on top of his head, a spit-lip, and a swollen, black eye; knocked unconscious.
InuYasha sits cross-armed against the tree, his eyes closed, a scowl on his face, and one of his ears was twitching in annoyance.
Kagome starts giggling.
“What’s so funny?”, he growls, opening his eyes.
“It’s good to have the short-tempered you back!”, she coos, sitting beside him.
“The lech was asking for it”, he says.
“I know”, she replies, “I’m just glad you defended me, like you used to”, she whispers in his ear.
Sango cuts her husband down, while muttering to him, how he shouldn’t piss off InuYasha. She then drags him back to their hut, leaving the young couple alone under the tree.
Kagome rests her head on her fiancé’s shoulder.
“Hey, InuYasha?”, she asks.
“Yeah?”
“Do you remember that time, when we were in your father’s grave, getting your tetsusaiga?”
“Yeah, why?’
“Do you recall what you said to me before the tetsusaiga awakened?”
“Not really…”, he blushes.
“You told me to shut up and let you protect me”, she continues.
“Now that you’ve mention it, I did say that”, he blushes darker, ‘I know where this is heading!
“Then when I came to you later, to tell you the secret of using the tetsusaiga and I asked if you would use it to protect me”.
“Yes?”, his blush darkens.
“Why did you blow up on me when I said that?”
I knew it!’, he thinks, his face and the insides of his ears becoming dark red, “Well…”, he began, avoiding eye contact.
“Hmm? Why did you?”, she asks.
InuYasha begins to fidget, “Well… um… when a man tells a woman that he’ll protect her…”, he gulps.
“Yes? What is it?”
“It’s how he… prepossess to her in this era”, he finishes, swearing his face was steaming from how hot it was.
“I see!”, she gasps, starting to blush, “That’s why you blew up”.
“I… didn’t know you well enough at the time…”, he stammers.
“Yet, I let you protect me”.
“Yeah, you did. You even protected me”.
“So in a way, we were engaged longer than we thought”, Kagome states.
“Yeah, unofficially engaged for two years, officially engaged for two months”, he laughs.
“So you did remember the whole incident, when we ran into Koga two days ago!”, she shouts, sitting up.
“Why do you think I said, what I said?”, he smirks.
“I thought you said that, to get him off our case!”
“Your fault, for not realizing it”, he mocks.
“Sit!”
InuYasha flinches, the color draining from his face as he tenses up. Then he puts a hand over his heart to try to calm his pounding heart.
“That won’t work anymore, Kagome!”, he growls.
“I know, but you still react like it does!”, she giggles.
InuYasha loudly growls at her, sounding like an angry dog.
The growling suddenly stops; when Kagome gently grasps his ears and begins rubbing, only to be replaced by a dog-style purr rumbling deep inside his chest.
His eyes close in bliss, and he becomes limp in a bone-less matter.
Suddenly, she stops rubbing his ears and pushes him over, causing him to land flat on his back.
“Why did you do that for?”, he shouts, snapping out of his blissful-mood.
Kagome crawls over to him and saddles his abdomen, “No reason”, she coos, leaning forward, kissing him on the nose.
He blushes at her actions.
“We can get married next year, after I turn 18”, she says, changing the subject.
He grasps the back of her head, bringing her face closer to his, kissing her fully on the lips. He rolls over, taking her with him, until she was underneath him; never breaking the kiss.
“You’re… teasing me…”, he pants, breaking the kiss.
“Huh?”, she blushes, realizing what he meant.
“We’re not ready for that step of the relationship yet”, he says, climbing off of her, “I need to cool off, see you back in the hut in an hour”, he adds, heading towards the river.
“Okay”, she nods, ‘Will we truly be happy?’, she wonders.

DemonGirl-Setsuna: Well? What did you think? Please review!
It seems InuYasha’s hormones are starting to rise up!
When will they be ready for the next step, will it be before or after they’re married?
Only they know!
The next chapter is called; ‘Here Comes the Bride, But Where’s the Groom?’.
Catch you readers next time!
I wonder when they will be ready for the sexual relations step of their relationship.
