I was going to make this chapter a quick one. Oh what fun it would have been to have only given all of my readers 500 words or less. But I know I am not a 500 word person despite the horrible sentence structure… Oh yeah I made Koga and Ayame the complete romantics of this one shot among the other things I did like Kagome and InuYasha…please don't be mad at me. As the imaginary glass plates fly my way…ok I'm done being an idiot happy reading.

Koga and Kagome

He hadn't spoken to her since he had seen her and Sesshoumaru in that office after hours. She needed to tell him about the unborn child growing in her belly because they were friends and she needed someone there for her. They were always there for one another when they were in high school but ever since that day he hasn't even taken a glance at her.

“You have to talk to me sometime I cut your checks” again she heard nothing as he took out the jammed photo paper out of one of the machines. “Koga I need you please just like in high school, I'm scared”

“If it makes you feel better InuYasha dumped me last month” she said getting his hopes up. It was a well known fact that Koga and InuYasha disliked each other with a passion. Koga wanted a shot at the Tashio business but InuYasha who had started dating her the first year of their relationship somehow found his application and shredded it.

Koga only found out when Manten a friend who also hated InuYasha happen to see it and told him about it. Needless to say for both men and her camera shop that day was ruined when InuYasha came by to see her while Koga was working.

The morning after that she went personally for her friend to see Sesshoumaru who said that he would look into it for her. At that time though she had no idea that Sesshoumaru liked her in another way than business and her dealings with a brother that he almost hated.

“Why did it have to be Sesshoumaru, Kagome?” he finally said as he perked up slightly at the news of InuYasha dumping her. He had always felt a connection with Kagome and at one point in his life wanted to be that boyfriend for her. But she had always thought of them as friends and he was always pushed to the background.

So he decided to stay in the background as a friend in high school and a friend now. He just hated the fact that she would consider sleeping with Sesshoumaru the man looked like he hated every living thing around him. His friend that he had one time loved…no still loved with never taking a chance on them.

“Who else would it be Koga you?” she questioned completely confused. But by the way he sounded he hated the fact that he wasn't the one in that room with her that it was Sesshoumaru.

“Never mind Kagome I have Ayame remember” he said smiling at her. “But you have to know that I do love you like a sister and I want you to know that I'm always here for you. So what is it my friend?” he questioned as Kagome held his hand and took him over to the chairs used by her customers.

“Well um you promise that you won't become too mad right” she said looking up at him with her big brown eyes.

It was enough to make him fold, “Yes Kagome I'll try not to become angry”

“Well it all started on New Year's Day a little after 12 am InuYasha was no where to be found and of course I had a feeling that he had shacked up with my old rival Kikyo” she stopped when he looked like he wanted to say something.

“You mean the Kikyo is married to Sesshoumaru at this moment, the same Kikyo that I just saw in the magazine, the same Kikyo who use to always to try and one up you by trying to steal all of your boyfriends. The same woman who hated you because everyone liked you even when you were a quote `loner' when they were suppose to hate you…” he trailed off when Kagome put a finger on his mouth to say that she knew what he was talking about.

“Yes Koga her, I had a feeling that they were together so Sesshoumaru came over that evening to confirm it for me. He didn't even have to say it for me to know because after all why would a married man be at my doorstep.

But he hinted at InuYasha sleeping with his wife which he was because later on I gave him the proof of them on one the guest rooms”

“So that why he came here that day for those photos and they heard nothing I suppose” he said.

“Well yes we talked about that and your job application that I gave him but for not that's not what I want to tell you. Koga on that night in my home I slept with Sesshoumaru”

“What!!!” he shouted. He was pissed again not only had she slept with him once but twice. He just looked at the woman who was now softly crying. What was it about those Tashio's that had women running to them was it their hair and eyes ugh he didn't want to think about.

His friend though needed him and he loved her enough to stay around and hear her out it was obvious that she was hurting. “It's ok Kagome I'm here I'll always be here for you even through this. Now what would possess you to sleep with him” he said placing two fingers under her chin and had her look at him.

“I don't know his words he made me feel good for once in my life. I had fun with him and I didn't even get caught of course there were questions from InuYasha but he never found the answers. Sesshoumaru expressed how much he liked me and for a while I kept denying him because I was starting feel something more from him.

After the first day of the year I would see him again at least three other times. When you caught us we had seen each other again for the fifth time. I knew that what I was doing was wrong so after you caught us I decided not to see him again to focus on InuYasha.

But I know that I'm starting to fall for Sesshoumaru as he has already fallen for me. We didn't just have sex all of those times either we spoke to each other, held each other, we were amazing when we were together those times. On top of that he is married although he claims that he is going to divorce her soon.

I'm rambling but what I want to tell you is Sesshoumaru and I weren't protected on New Year's Day. The reason why InuYasha dumped me was I'm pregnant and it's not his. I feel so horrible Koga about everything” she started crying again after her long speech and felt Koga's arms around her.

“Kagome we are going to get through this together ok just me, you, and Ayame alright” he said just holding her as she cried. He was going to protect her from those brothers they cause enough trouble for years. Until he heard his cell phone ring he took one of his hands from Kagome to see that it was Sesshoumaru. He sighed this was going to be hard especially if Tashio hired him. He wanted to be hired within the company but he had a feeling that this was more than that.

InuYashaand Sesshoumaru

“I believe that Koga and Miroku here will be good for this company InuYasha. Giving Miroku a promotion and Koga a job here is the best thing I could have ever done”

“Except I was supposed to be the one you promoted Sesshoumaru not him. You and father discussed this” she shouted at him.

“Were you eavesdropping again InuYasha and for your information I said that I would consider it I did not promise”

“You are a grade A bastard you know that”

“And you're preaching to the choir little brother like I said before they have the jobs you still work as the mail boy a fitting punishment for you I believe” that and Koga knew too much about him and Kagome. This job would give him the benefit of the doubt to check up on Kagome again.

Ever since InuYasha flaunted the fact he was single in his face he was a little perturbed. He knew that he couldn't just up and go see her, Kikyo could figure that out. He stood from his black leather chair and looked out the window to think. Then he smirked he could always drop off more of the footage he had on Kikyo his wayward wife. He was almost done with his plan but InuYasha was the problem with her, he always had been.

“I'm going to talk to father about this”

“Go ahead his decision doesn't matter anyway I'm the owner of this company now. Remember little brother he gave it all to me because he knew that both of us weren't responsible enough. Guess who that irresponsible person is InuYasha it's not me” he pulled out a manila folder from his side drawers and threw it over the desk for InuYasha to see.

“What the hell is this?” he said looking at the pictures of a slightly pregnant Yura. The sonograms and ultrasounds of the unborn child said it all.

“You're irresponsibility brother tell me why is Miroku taking care of Yura pregnancy tab when you are the father InuYasha”

“How the hell do you k-know about this” he stuttered half way as he just looked a little lost.

“I don't know but I do know that she came to see me and somehow had a change of heart towards Miroku. At least when it just comes to him and not his girlfriend do you want to know what she told me” he said flicking his long hair in back of him. His golden eyes his narrowed at his little brother, at how careless he was at this it made him wonder about how and why did he really dumped Kagome.

“No I'd rather not because the child is not mine and I stand by that”

“Are you really that heartless? That reminds me InuYasha what possessed you to dump Kagome? Did she finally see that she was too good for you?”

“No I'm not heartless I just want a blood test when the child is born then I'll take the proper responsibility. And you're still on Kagome I thought you of all people would know about her since you sleep with her all the time. No was she never too good for me I was too good for her because she fell for you” this time he growled at him and knocked the desk chairs over in his office.

“I haven't slept with her InuYasha” a lie of course he would do anything to protect his major investments and Kagome like the business he ran was one of them.

“You can't even keep a straight face when you lie can you Sesshoumaru. You wanna know the real reason why I dumped the woman I loved”

“Oh come off yourself InuYasha, you loved her give me a break you couldn't hold out on not cheating on her if it killed you at this moment. Kagura proved that fact for me at the fundraiser father had last year”

“You are still on that, ugh, I have no time for this I dumped her because I wanted to dump her. She was cramping my style” he tried to sound confident when he said that but he couldn't feel that way. He actually didn't know what was going on with Kagome he claimed that she cheated on him.

But to him it all made sense she was arguing with him about the smallest things just to leave the house. Now she was pregnant and the child could be his, he wanted the child to be his but he also knew about Yura.

Kikyo and Sesshoumaru

She had to find something on him Kikyo had to find out what was going on with her and her husband. Where was all of his attention going because it wasn't going to her? She was a cheater so she knew the game, she was no fool all those late nights, and eating dinner out with friends late something was wrong with this picture. At the moment she was coming up short on what she could find but she wasn't one to give up.

She threw his important papers on the dark brown wooden floors determined to find something. That and she really didn't want to give up this great life to some bitch. She had worked so hard for all of it, so if she found information on him first then she could dangle it in his face. The `great' Sesshoumaru wouldn't have a leg to stand on and she could keep living the life she always wanted to live.

When she could find nothing she threw the huge manila folder she originally threw on the desk on the floor, white, pink, and blue papers had flown everywhere but she didn't care. Her husband did though especially since he was leaning on ledge of his coffee door of his study.

“What the hell are you doing in my study Kikyo?” he said looking at his crouched wife in her all yellow button down spring dress.

“Trying to find out the woman you are cheating on me with Sesshoumaru?”

“I should be figuring out if you have been cheating on me wife” he already knew her verdict guilty as charged. Why did he still want to play with here he really should be checking on Kagome again. The videos as well as the numerous photos should be enough to give to his lawyers but he kept everything in a very safe place with his old friend Kagura and Bankotsu. He had months on her but somehow didn't want to give it all up yet, even he didn't know why that was.

“I told you before I'm not cheating on you, Sesshy I love you dearly don't you see that. Can't you see me your wife I love you with all my heart. Maybe I'm overreacting about this cheating thing but I just…never see you anymore it's like you go out of your way to avoid me” and then for the first time in their lives they saw each other at least for a moment.

“Good then you will like what I say next get some nice clothes on we are going to eat with InuYasha and my father tonight” he said watching her reaction. She looked slightly surprised when he called InuYasha's name.

“You seem skittish Kikyo may I ask what is wrong” he said eyeing his wife.

“N-Nothing I'll get ready” she said as she ran past him to their bedroom upstairs. Eventually he would change far left corner room into a guest room and make the center room his room when he divorced Kikyo. But for now…

“My dearest Kikyo try dressing up in something green and comfortable it is St. Patrick's Day after all” he said walking out of his study and into the living room. He already knew that it was going to be a long night he decided to dress in green. He then walked out of his study to his wet bar it was St. Patrick's Day and he was going to enjoy the rest of it.

Koga and Ayame

He loved Kagome but Ayame was completely faithful. He wanted to protect Kagome but his desire to protect Ayame was becoming stronger. He wanted Kagome but now he was starting to realize that he would always play second fiddle. His Kagome was in a huge mess but Ayame helped him get out of the mess of Kagome when they first started dating. His mind cried that he should ditch Ayame but his soul said that he needed her.

“Hey Koga I'm home. Can you believe Yura flaunted her pregnancy in Sango's face?”

“I'm in the kitchen sweetheart” he said as he took a look around the new furnished kitchen. Three months ago he changed it because of her it was all cream Ayame's favorite color, the counters, the cabinets, the floors all a beautiful cream color.

He did because at the time it was a new beginning for them, she was there for him when he was down, when he wanted to kill InuYasha because the asshole made him lose his shot, when every sentence was about Kagome. The kitchen was a symbol of them. He saw her approach him with one eyebrow arched some of her pretty red hairs poked out a little.

“You look forlorn Koga what happened? Was it Kagome again? What did she do I swear I'll kick her ass if she hurt you again? I mean I love her, she is a nice person and great friend to you but you are more important”

“No it's not really like that much, I kinda relapsed a little I thought of Kagome today when she forced me to talk to her”

“You weren't talking to her before why? You are always cordial when it comes to her even if you are pissed at her she is still your friend. So the question I want to ask her is why you weren't speaking to her” she said trying to get to the bottom line of things.

“Because on Valentine's Day she…I happened to see her and Sesshoumaru they were indecent. For a moment I wished it was me and her. I believe that's why Sesshoumaru gave me the job so quickly”

“Wait he gave you the job that's great” she wanted to ignore the first parts of the conversation but she knew she couldn't. “Koga I know that I will be first in your life but I understand to a point about your love to Kagome. In the end I will always be here even if you dumped me at this moment, I'll still be here” she said with a small smile. She took his hands and placed them in hers as a sign of caring for him always.

And that's how he knew that his heart belonged to Ayame she would help him with his friend because he needed help. “Ayame I know now that I don't belong to her for a moment though I did think about it. I will always love her but I believe that I'm starting to love you more.

So the thing I want to ask you and you can say no at anytime, is can you help me help her. I know that you hate her but she is been sleeping with Sesshoumaru and now is pregnant with his child, he is married mind you. She wanted me to help her but I think I need more help I need my girlfriend to help me with my best friend because she is confused. I wonder if you will Ayame…help me” then he placed a hand on the back of his head in frustrated manner to take out the annoying ponytail holder letting his long hair flow down his back.

This made Ayame blush two shades red for the man she knew in her heart she loved. She knew her answer at that moment, “Yes Koga I will help her and for the record I don't hate her I just…people just envy her and I happen to be one of those people. Three men are after her and she only noticed two because one will always be her friend. The worse part about all of this is that she could be in love with both of the men who are head over heel for her even though one cheats.

“Ayame I'm glad I met you”

“Same here now I wish to play St. Patrick's Day `strip twister' if you will have me”

“It's a date I'm sure I have the liquor, you set up the game” he said as she ran into the room. He looked at her lovely form with green eyes that always shined when she looked back at him for a tiny moment running to set up the game in the all green and blue home. Yep he made the right choice and for once he was happy that Kagome was now starting to become more of a friend than a girlfriend.

InuYasha and Kagome

He didn't know why he was here again at her door step. InuYasha rang the door bell to Kagome's home and waited for any response when he finally heard cursing he smiled a little. That was his Kagome the woman he loved no matter how many times he cheated on her he loved her more.

“Hey Ayame you're early I decided to---oh InuYasha what brings you by, you dumped me remember”

“Yeah and now I want you back”

“Why, you made a lot of things clear to me we are not right for each other InuYasha” she said his name with so much spite this time that he visibly flinched.

“I love you Kagome let me make things right between us again”

“I done that so many times that I actually don't know what to do anymore. I was pregnant for goodness sake and you couldn't even be there for me”

“I'm sorry for that”

“Then you had the audacity to tell me about you're past women who you impregnated. I-I don't know how much more I can take”

“You don't know much you can take what about me Kagome you are pregnant that is hard on me the father”

“I don't know if can take you back again, I don't want to be hurt again” she said solemnly. There was so much on her plate at the moment Sesshoumaru plus InuYasha she was starting to love them both more and more. But this time InuYasha was on her door step wanting her to come back to him. Kagome knew though that this was different she was different that's why for now she would not take him back.

“Oh Kagome, he said quickly bringing her into a hug, I love you more than you could ever know. Yura is nothing to me I'm sorry that I let her into my life I know now that I only want you and our child”

In a perfect world Kagome would have just accept this, accepted him. She had done so many times before the only problem was she was confused there was more than InuYasha on her plate now. She couldn't accept him but he felt so good just like old times. “InuYasha I love you too---”

“Good then you will go with me tonight for my father's party” he interrupted her holding her hands with his.

“Um I guess so” she didn't know why at that moment she felt

“Excellent let's go get dress I have our silver car just waiting for my woman and our child to ride in. I can't wait father will welcome the good news of our child”

“InuYasha” then she saw it the peaceful look of content on his face. She knew then that she couldn't ruin this for him not now above everything else she didn't want to see him hurt. Now she hated herself for such revenge against InuYasha because he was doing it too, so for now she would concede. “I don't want Yura near us she will not upset me and the baby. I don't really even know her but you can't cheat on me anymore InuYasha”

“Done” he said giving her a charming smile, the same smile that actually melted her soul again. He always hurt her yet his smile made her want to go back to him all over again. She quickly got dressed as he stood at the door. When she came back she was dressed in a soft light blue tee shirt with casual navy pants, navy pumps, and her hair in a high bun in the back.

“I think that you are lovely Kagome” this time he truly meant it all the other times he faked his concern. It was only at this moment when he saw her with a beautiful glow to her that he loved her so much more. For some reason he wanted to make this right for both of them. “I promise from this day forward I will be faithful to you and only you Kagome”

And yet again she believed him…

I know this chapter wasn't one of my strongest chapters I don't even have a lemon in this one but wait until you see Easter
