Inuyasha stared at the phone in his hand. What is his problem? he thought as he went to tell Kikyo that he was going to his parent's house. As he walked into their room he didn't see her. Where'd she go? i was only outside a few minutes. he thought as he walked out and into the living room, when he notice that Kikyo never left the spare bedroom. They had been moving things around in their to make the new guest bedroom more 'inviting'.

"Kikyo I have to go to my parent's house. I should only..." he started to say when he saw how pale she look. "Is something wrong? Why do you look like, you've seen a ghost?" he questioned her, worried that something was really wrong with her, when he saw a small box sitting next to her. "Inuyasha" she whispered, "What is this?" She walked over to him and handed him something that looked like a picture. Taking the 'picture' from her he looked at it and paled instantly when he saw what it was. He saw that it wasn't no 'picture' but a sonogram from about a year ago. It was Kagome's... Inuyasha couldn't believe it. That was our pup, that one I never knew of. The one we lost... No not we... she lost. It's not my fault she lost the pup, he thought on an end note.

When he finally spoke Kikyo was shocked. " Kikyo, today when I went to go talk to Kagome I found out about this." he said sadly. "What do you mean Yash. I don't understand. I know it's hers, but she never looked pregnant even that first time a really meet her." Inuyasha looked at Kikyo and knew he couldn't lie to her. she was everything to him. "Kikyo listen, I'm going to explain this to you , but my father wants me at his house in 20... " he look at his watch "... well in 15 minutes. Something is up the old man's ass, and I'm on his shit list, but as soon as I'm done with him I'll come right home. ok?" he questioned her. She just shook her head. Thats when he got up and walked out of the apartment, and headed to his father's house.

Kikyo sat on the couch feeling only Kami knows. She didn't know Kagme was with child. That would explain why she over reacted when she found us 'together' about a year ago. We can't keep this. Even if it was Inuyasha child. she went through that all alone. She was most likely too stressed and lost it. I feel bad for her. Maybe I should call her so I can let her know and bring this back to her. If I was her I'd still want it back. Kikyo thought as she went to her phone and called Kagome's number.

The phone rang several time before someone answered with a groggy hello. "Kagome, I know its late but, can I talk to you? Even only just a few minutes, and I know that I'm not your favorite person right know but, please? she asked hoping that Kagome would just hear her out. When she heard someone n the other line ask who it was, and Kagome telling that person who was on the other line, and that she'd be right back. I must have woken her up, Kikyo thought.

After a few moments another hello came through the phone. "I'm sorry Kagome, I didn't know that you'd be asleep." she said. Kagome just sighed, "What is it you need Kikyo? I doubt Sesshomaru is gonna allow this for very long." Kikyo was surprise there was no anger in her voice. "Well I was cleaning up your old room here and ... well I found something I think you might want back. I know if I where you I'd want to keep it." Kikyo said. "I left somethings there? I thought I grabbed everything." she said a little surprised. Kikyo smiled a little, "Well its a box. I opened it not knowing if it was something important but, I think you'd want it back." she said in a rush. Kagome thought for a second and gasped ohh, "Yes Kikyo, I do want that I thought I had it with me. I would say I'd come get it but I can't deal with Inuyasha right now. I need..." Thats when Kikyo interrupted her. " I understand. I'm off tomorrow and Inuyasha has work if you want to come by around 11am just to make sure there's nothing else here thats your that you want?""Ummm... ok as long as Inuyasha is not gonna be there then ok." Kagome said "Ok, I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight." she said and Kagome whispered goodnight as well. Kikyo decided to go to bed even if it was only 10 o'clock.

Taisho Mansion

Inuyasha walked up the stairs to his parents home dreading every step knowing, just knowing he was in trouble. Just not sure what he was in trouble. I better get this over with, he thought as he opened the doors. He was greeted by one of the maids, that told him that his father was up in his office waiting for him. He walked up the stairs and went to his fathers office looking at the door for a few moments when he heard his fathers voice through the door, telling him to get in there. He sighed and walked in anyway.

"Inuyasha would you like to tell me why Sesshomaru left the office earlier this morning? You know it was funny Inuyasha, I never dealt with Sesshomaru's beast while talking over the phone, the way he was talking it sounded like he was ready to kill you like to tell me what you did to his Intendant?" Toga ask as calm as can be. Inuyasha just looked at him like he had a third arm or something. "What are you talking about? He doesn't have an intendant." He said a little confused. Toga just looked at him, with that look. The look of all looks that parents give their kids, when there mad. "Really now Inuyasha? He says different says his intendants name is Kagome. Isn't your girlfriends name that? And how would you know his intendant, but if its the same girl then we have a problem! What did you do to that poor girl for her to run from you!" he growled out.

Inuyasha just looked at his dad, Still trying to figure out what to say. "Tell Me Inuyasha did you get her pupped up?" he asked in an extremely calm voice. Inuyasha looked down at his shoes then looked back at his father. "I only found out this morning when I went to go see her. She never even told me when she was..." Inuyasha mumbled to his father. If it was't't for his demon hearing he would have never heard him. Toga just looked at him with disappointed eyes. "How did you not know your own girlfriend was pregnant? or better yet when she miscarried! Inuyasha I want you to tell me NOW what you did to that poor girl, and what you did to her this morning to scare her so much!" Toga yelled at him. Inuyasha kept quite and just looked down towards the floor at nothing in particular, not knowing how to tell his father all that he's done to her. Looking back at it know, he knew he hurt her terribly by the way he treated her and then cheated on her, only to continue to rub it in her face by bring Kikyo back to the apartment.

"Well Inuyasha, I'm waiting!" Toga yelled at him. Inuyasha flinched, then proceeded to tell his father everything. Toga kept quite while his youngest pup told him, only growling a little about the part about this morning. No wonder his beast started to come out. That poor girl probably told him what happened with Inuyasha. That stupid fool lost a great woman. Well at least my oldest pup knows how to take care of her. He thought after Inuyash finished. He looked up at his stupid foolish son. "Well Inuyasha..." he said in a clam voice "... you are going to stay away from her, and don't give me that look she didn't lie to you. You where just too 'busy' to see the clues or even sense what was wrong with her when she started to get 'sick'! You will not call her, follow her, have that woman your with bother her either. Do I make myself clear pup?!" he said angrily. Inuyasha just shook his head yes until his father yelled at him to answer him. "Good. Now Inuyasha go home before I do something you'll regret." Toga growled at him as he walked out of the room with his head down. Inuyasha walked back to his car and then proceeded to dive to the closest bar from his home.

Sesshomaru and Kagome's

"Kagome what did that woman wan't?" Sess asked Kagome calmly, but he didn't feel calm that his brothers new wench all his intendant. What he didn't understand was that his Love, his Kagome was calm. It worried him that she wasn't telling him something. All Kagome did was smile. " Well she found a few of my things there. She thought they were important. So she called me to see if I wanted to come take a look." Then she shuttered. "I left my BOX there. The one from... you know... before..." she whispered. Sess looked at her worried that this might be a bad idea for her to have that box. He pulled her into his chest to try to sooth her. After a few minutes, she calmed. Looking at her, she was sleeping in his arms... just like that first night...

**FLASHBACK**

Why did I agree to this? Why Kami, why? Sesshomaru thought as he saw Rin run to the playground a little farther up. He was walking a little faster to catch up with Rin when he saw her nearly run to get to the playground. Thats when he saw his brothers wench sitting up against the big tree in the park. "Rin I'm going to sit over there by the tree don't wander off now." he told his adopted daughter who was overjoyed to be at the park but, just smiled and nodded her head. She ran to the slid and started playing with the other children there, yokai, hanyo and human alike.

He walked over to the tree, and looked down at her. Her eyes stayed on the children playing there in the park, like she was longing for something. "Don't you have somewhere else to be!" Sesshomaru asked annoyed. She then turned her head to where he was standing. Thats when he saw her eyes. They held such sadness in them, it took him by surprise. Was this the same girl I saw at the super market? The HALF-BREAD'S wench? Her eyes they look so sad, like she has nothing left to live for. Thats when she spoke. "I'm sorry. I did know you where going to be here, I don't want to bother his 'HIGHNESS'. " she said as she slowly got up.

How dare she talk to me like that! A HUMAN! He thought as he was about to growl at her he noticed how slow she was getting up. I've never seen a woman thats pupped look this... unhealthy. What is that HALF-BREAD doing to her. He thought then the winds changed and her scent reached his nose. He looked at her, at that moment and wondered where that stupid HALF-BREAD really was, to leave his wench when she lost his pup.

When she started to walk away slowly as if she was in pain. He growled at her,"What are you doing?" She turned and looked at him as if he had two heads. But she turned right back about around and continued to walk away from him. "I asked you a question wench! And you will answer it!" Sesshomaru growled at her. She turned to him again, "I'm going home stupid!" she yelled back at him.

How dare she talk to me like that!
What are you talking about she's the only female EVER to talk back to us and not be afraid of us.
I thought I told you to stay in your cage Beast?! He mentally growled at his beast.
Just think we could have her for a mate she is strong. We can feel it. And you know I'm right. We shall make her ours! OUR MATE! his beast growled at him.

Sesshomaru growled at his beast but knew he was right the girl was a MIKO a very powerful one at that, so why hide your power? he wondered. He forced his beast back into it's mental cage, just as he saw Rin run up to the wench.

"Kagome!Kagome!Kagome!" Rin screamed as she ran towards the wench. So thats her name. Kagome, he thought. He looked toward Kagome as she turned her head to see who was calling her name, when she saw Rin. "Oh My Kami! Rin is that you? Look how big you got?" she said with a small smile. And that was all it took for Rin to start her talking spree, asking everything and anything. Sesshomaru resisted the urge to roll his eye while his adopted daughter started her talking spree.

"Daddy,Daddy! Look its Kagome for the Orfange! Shes the one that always took me to lunch with her." Then Rin turned to Kagome. "Did you come to see me?" she ask with a huge smile on her face. It looked like Kagome couldn't help but smile back. "No sweetie I didn't know you where gonna be here. I was just about to go home when you called my name. But I'm glad I did see you. I've miss you." she said with a sad smile. Sesshomaru couldn't believe his ear. He just couldn't. Rin really doesn't talk to a lot of people and the only ones she does talk to is Father, Izayoi (My Step-Mother), Sora the maid, and Myself. "Rin its called Orphanage." He corrected her. She just smiled at him and nodded her head...

"Daddy can she come to dinner with us? Please, please, please." Rin begged, with those puppy eyes. How could a father resist? You can't, so he just shook his head yes, while she ran with delight. "I'm sorry. She's always like that when she seen me, at the Orphanage. You know she pulled that with a few of the other guys that work there too... She just pulled that look and pretty much got her way with them." Kagome said on a laugh. Sesshomaru looked at her... "I'm assuming your 'that' Kagome she always talks about." he said boredly. "Oh I guess. I didn't know I made that big of an impression on her." Kagome said.

"Are you ok with Domino's? Thats all she likes to eat on the weekends when I'm home all day." He asked of her. She made a face. "Domino's is not such a good idea for next few day. Certain foods still make me sick" she said sadly. "But I was gonna make my Home made Pizza, the smell isn't as strong as Domino's. If you like I don't mind cooking for 2 more. And besides Rin used to love it when I used to bring my Pizza in when she was at the Orphanage." Kagome said, but all she got from him was a 'Hn'.

"Kagome I don't want the HALF-BREAD around Rin. I don't need her to catch his stupidity. So you'll cook in my house." he stated to her, she just nodded her in agreement. "Ummm... I just have to grab the things I'll need back at the house I'll be back in 10." she stated and walked off.

Strange girl! She's walking to her home? I thought she lived 20 minutes from here. he thought as he watched Rin play.

Sure enough she was back in 10 minutes, with two bags in her hands walking slowly still. Sesshomaru thought it was weird but let it go.

Sesshomaru's

"Kagome can I help?" he heard Rin ask, as he walked up to his office to see if there were any calls from the office, which there weren't. Walking back down to the kitchen, he saw Kagome putting the pizza in the oven. "Now Rin how do you want the crust, crunchy or soft?" Kagome asked. "Soft" she smiled up at her. They then put the timer on.

They sat down to watch Tv while they waited...

"Here you go. Hope you guys enjoy" Kagome said while she cut herself a piece. They as Rin told Kagome all the thing she was doing now. Kagome as a way with kids it seems. I wonder... Sesshomaru thought. After dinner they sat back on the couch to watch TV. Rin asked to watch Spirited Away but, half way through the movie she fell asleep. Sesshomaru carried her up the stairs to put her to bed. When he came back down stairs to take Kagome home he saw her on the floor.

Running to her and helping her off the floor and on to the couch. "Whats wrong with you now?" he asked. She gave a pained smile. "As you can tell I-i-i lost the b-baby. But it took a lot out of me. I was in the hospital for 2 days unconscious before I woke and another 2 days before I was released but I guess I just pushed myself a little to much." she said.

This girl.. no woman she could have die from losing a pup but, yet she has the will to live on, Sesshomaru thought.

Thats cause she was meant for us not that half-bread. He would never treasurer her like we can. his beast said

I thought I told you to stay in your cage! Sesshomaru growled.

Yes but WE need to help her.

yes I think that would be wise.

Take her up our... the beast stopped.

Sesshomaru looked down to see her crying.

Shes crying. Why? Is it cause she lost that HALF-BREAD's pup?

Better yet why was she alone in the park with that HALF-BREAD?

Sesshomaru started to growl. what a strange woman,he thought. After a few minutes she was asleep. She'll stay here, with me in my room. Sesshomaru thought. He brang her into his bedroom, and slipped off her pants and laid down with her. Pulling her closer to him he growled, but then he heard her whisper thanks as sleep took them both.
