InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Unexpected Happenings ❯ Maybe... ( Chapter 4 )

Maybe it was for the best.

For his half-breed brother to end up with the undead miko, Kikyo. For Kouga to finally give up attempting to woo Kagome and instead choose the Wind Witch,

Kagura as his mate.

Even if she had killed most of his tribe so many years ago.

But then again, that had been after Naraku's control. And now he was dead.

And so she was free.

Maybe it was for the best that Rin had finally shyly recognized Kohaku's equally bashful attempts at catching her eye. Even if it still left a sour taste in his mouth that Rin no longer was completely his, he would always make sure she was happy.

Maybe it was for the best that Kanna was now living with him as Rin's playmate. Quiet as she used to be, everyday brought new wonders for her and she was increasingly reminding him of Rin's talkative self.

Maybe it was for the best that the Lady Sango had finally agreed to marriage with the over enthusiastic monk.

His eyes fell on the last 'maybe', the one yet thought of.

Maybe...

His wife kissed away his thoughts and brought him back with a simple graze of her lips. "Sesshomaru," she whispered. "Look at you, aren't you ready for the reunion yet?"

She brought out a comb from the nightstand and carefully ran it through his silver hair. Giggling as her husband tried turning around and nipping her skin, she slid off the massive bed and called for her husband's faithful servant.

"Jaken!"

Apon the arrival of the miniscule toad, she asked, "Are Ah-Un and Rin ready for the reunion?"

The green demon nodded his head.

Kagome smiled. "Tell Rin she'll be able to see Kohaku once we get there. Lady Sango will be bringing him to the picnic."

Nodding once more, the servant backed his way humbly out of the room. But not before stealing a second glance at his mistress.

Jaken's eyes grew round at the sight of his master's mate's round belly.

Something told him he was doomed as babysitter for life.
