Chapter 9: Love Will Find a Way

A/N: I thought I had this chapter all written up already but I had to rewrite it again.  That's why it took a while to be posted up. Oh well to the story!

"What's up Sess? You seem mad?" Inuyasha questioned as he let his older brother inside.

"Mad? Mad? Do I appear mad! Because I'm furious!" Sess yelled slamming his fist on the table, which easily gave away under that great taiyokia's strength.

"Ummm ok! Jeez Sess calm down!" Inuyasha motioned his brother to sit on his couch. The living room was still messy as always. "What's wrong with you?"

"It's Yui … again" Sess growled. Inuyasha sighed heavily and sat on his new black leather lazy boy.

"Are you sure you didn't overreact like you always do?" Sess turned his glance towards Inuyasha, eyes a deadly red.

"I didn't overreact little brother." He said coolly, suppressing his anger.

"Of course you didn't." Inuyasha replied with sarcasm. They both sat in silence, each looking in different directions. "So, you planning to tell me what happened this time or not?" Sess turned his head slowly in the direction of Inuyasha.

"No, not any time soon." he replied and turned his attention to the city lights. Silence fell again.

"Oh man! I'm late for school!" Kagome yelled as she stuffed various objects in her schoolbag with light speed. Her brother observed the humorous site from the doorway.

"Hey onee chan! You know today is Saturday right?" he said with a mischievous tone. Kagome suddenly stopped stuffing random objects in her bag.

"Then why did you wake me up?"

"Because your boyfriend Daisuke called. He wants to meet you at some Yui's house."

"What! Wait, he's not my boyfriend by the way and did he say at what time?"

"At 2 o'clock." He smiled evilly. Kagome turned her head to her clock on the wall. The clock chimed notifying it was fifteen to 2 o'clock. Kagome's face turned pale.

"I'm going to be late!" Kagome quickly picked some jeans a shirt and sneakers and headed to the bathroom.

"Some people are meant to never be on time. She'll probably be late for her own funeral." Souta commented to the fat pet cat. Applying some lip gloss, Kagome raced out of her house.

"Damn these steps!" she cursed as she descended the long staircase. At the bottom, a familiar face standing near a car greeted her. "Inuyasha? I thought I was supposed to meet you at Yui's house?"

"Well I knew you were going to be late like usual so I was prepared." He said and smiled weakly taking notice of Kagome's stern expression.

"Aren't you very thoughtful Inuyasha?" She scoffed and entered the car. "I was joking but I knew you were going to be late since your brother told me you were sleeping like a tree." Inuyasha stated as he turned the engine on.

"It's sleeping like a log Inuyasha." Kagome corrected.

"Oh I see. But isn't it the same thing?" Inuyasha asked puzzled. Inuyasha drove off towards Yui's house.

"Why are we meeting Yui all of a sudden?" Kagome asked ignoring Inuyasha's previous question.

"It might have to do with the argument she had with Sesshoumaru last night." he answered seriously. Kagome was stunned to hear that they had an argument.

"That bad?"

"Yup, I think it's really bad. Sess stayed at my place. He didn't even want to talk about it. I mean sure they've argued before a lot, but this time it seems different. Sess is outraged and Yui sounded very worried and sad." Kagome took in all the information Inuyasha had told her, her mouth agape. Kagome leaned back into her seat and began to think about her own relationship. Would she and Inuyasha ever fight like that?

The thought brought upon a fear within her heart, a fear of losing her love, Inuyasha. "Don't worry Kagome. I think Sess just overreacted to something Yui said like he always does." Inuyasha said trying to cheer up his sadden love. Kagome turned to him and half heartedly smiled. Before she realized it, they had arrived at Yui's house. Inuyasha was about to ring the doorbell when Yui opened the door first. Her eyes were puffy and red.

"You've been crying." Inuyasha said caringly. Kagome stood beside Inuyasha observing Yui's current state.

"I'm so glad you guys could make it in such short notice! Please come in!" She escorted them into a living room where Inuyasha and Kagome sat by each other.

"Yui, what happened yesterday? Sess wouldn't tell me anything!" Inuyasha asked as Yui sat down across from him. Yui glanced at her fidgeting hands. "He never lets me explain myself. He misunderstood what I had said and he just started to yell at me." She half choked, trying to hold back her tears. "He said some terrible things to me and my attitude didn't help the situation." Her tears fled from her eyes creating tiny wet trails down her pale cheeks. "I shouldn't be crying like this, it's bad for us." She smiled thoughtfully looking at nothing in particular.

"US?" Kagome and Inuyasha yelled in unison. Yui closed her eyes and continued to smile.

"Yup, us. I guess all my hormones are acting up because of my pregnancy." Yui laughed.

"Yui, does Sess know about this?" Inuyasha asked. Yui's faced suddenly turned grim.

"I didn't want to bother him. He's been looking stressed and tired lately."

"Yui he needs to know about this." Kagome exclaimed.

"You have to call him and explain." Inuyasha advised sternly.

"You know he won't let me explain anything. He probably doesn't want to see me for a while anyway."

"Then meet with him here! I'll call for you if you don't want to talk to him over the phone." Inuyasha picked up his cell and dialed Sess' cell number. After two rings, the voice of his older brother was heard.

"Inuyasha, I have no time what?" Sess barked.

"Yui needs to tell you something important. You may want to hear this. Come to the house now." After that, Inuyasha hung up.

"He'll come, don't worry." Kagome said sitting with Yui.

Sess' POV

"Mr. Asakura, you have a new message from Shikon Enterprises." said Ms. Nariko Rayne, moving her black silky hair from her face while flashing her bright smile.

"Tell them I am not interested in merging with them and also remind them I no longer want to receive any calls from them." Sess said not even looking up from his paperwork.

"Yes Mr. Asakura I will call them and tell them your response." Nariko answered exiting the room not before looking at Sess' form. His mind wandered off remembering the event from last night. He had come home so stressed out from work and tired, all he wanted to do was sleep then. Did he really overreact to something he misunderstood? He regretted calling his love all those horrible things. His thoughts were interrupted. Inuyasha's name flashed on his cell phone.

"Inuyasha, I have no time what?" he barked.

"Yui needs to tell you something important. You may want to hear this. Come to the house now." Inuyasha said and then hung up. "Something important?" his mind wandered. He stood up, grabbed his coat and keys and rushed out the door. Finding his car quickly he drove towards his house. Along the way, Sess kept wandering what the important news was.

Yui heard Sess walking towards the door. Her heartbeat quickened as he turned the doorknob. Sess stood there, at the doorway, with his cold, emotionless face.

"Leave us." He said directing his statement to Inuyasha and Kagome. Rising from the sofa together, they each looked at Yui with encouraging looks before proceeding upstairs. Yui unable to look into Sess' eyes stared hard at the floor. "Yui, look at me." He said in an authoritive voice. She shook her head vigorously. He sighed in annoyance and walked towards her. He cupped her small chin in his large hand and lifted her face so that she was looking up to him. "I hate when people don't look at me. You know that better than anyone else."

"Sess ... I … ummm …. Need to tell you something." She stuttered out. Sess released her chin roughly and sat across from her quivering body.

"That I know Yui. Don't waste my time with your bullshit." He stated angrily.

"I'm sorry." She said meekly. "But I don't know how to tell you this." She continued to say.

"Tell me what Yui?"

"Sess, I'm sorry I acted the way I did." Yui said confidently. How his mind screamed to tell her that he was the one who should be apologizing to her, begging her to forgive him for his actions. "I haven't been myself lately." She said and paused to hear Sess' response.

"I haven't noticed." he replied.

"I knew you wouldn't." she sighed sadly and stood up. She confidently walked towards him and sat down next to him. Sees inhaled her sweet scent mingled with an unknown scent.

"Yui, what's going on?" Sess asked his mind confused.

"Sesshomaru, I'm pregnant." Sess' eyes grew wider.

"Why didn't you tell me this sooner!" he exclaimed and took Yui into a loving embrace. He buried his face in her neck gently planting kisses on it. Yui hugged him back with all her love as she wept happily.

"I didn't want to be a burden to you. You've been stressed and tired lately from work and …" she trailed off when Sess took her face into his hands and began to worship her lips with lustful and loving kisses.

"My love, what processed you to think that way?" he said in between kisses.

"I don't know. I guess I just didn't want to get you angry." Sess looked at her with loving eyes. "My little one, forgive me for my actions. I do love you. How's the baby?" he asked placing a hand on Yui's developing stomach.

"Well it's a little too early to tell if it's a boy or girl but I really want a boy." She replied truthfully. Sess brought Yui onto his lap and kissed her with all his love and passion.

Upstairs, Kagome had fallen asleep to next to Inuyasha. He laid awake watching Kagome's restful face. He laid thinking about his future plans, most importantly, his future plans that included Kagome by his side. The radio from the kitchen quietly played.

Goes & Goes the time goes on we are not alone

We live on together and we will find some precious things

Sometime we will smile sometime we will cry somehow

Don't forget believing yourself - Tomorrow's never die

There are the warm heart places on my mind

In my earliest day's there and it's so sweet

There are many stars they have talk with me so kind

They say yes always time's a friend of mine so shine
