“Naraku it’s been so long since I ‘ve heard from you.” His father said.
“You son of a bitch what the hell do you want?!” He hissed.
“I thought it was time that I came back to see my family. I’m looking forward to seeing Kagome.” He said

“I’ll kill you before I let you any near her.”He growled.

Kagome watched as Naraku’s aura grew dark. The more he talked to their father, Kagome walked over to Naraku. Laid her head on his shoulder. Naraku seemed to calm down some.

“Is that anyway to talk to your father?" he asked.
"Some Father you're, you left us. We needed you the most!" Naraku told him. "Don't call here again and don't come near us." Naraku said and hung up.
Naraku slammed the phone down breaking it. "Naraku." Kagome said.
"I'm sorry Kagome. He just grates my nerves." He said.
"We don't have to go. We can stay." She said.
"No, you go home. I’ll be fine." Naraku told her. "Sesshoumaru you know what he looks like don't let him near her." Naraku told him.
*********************************************************************

Sesshoumaru nodded his head and him and Kagome walked out of the house, getting into Sesshoumaru's car.
Once inside, they drove off to their apartment. They got inside and Kagome sat down on the couch, sighing. "I'm so glad to be home." Kagome said. Sesshoumaru walked over to the couch and sat down next to her. Kagome leaned on his shoulder and he put his arm around her shoulders.

“Do you really think Naraku will be alright?" Kagome asked him
"Naraku will be fine." Sesshoumaru assured her.
"I know, it's just I haven't seen him this mad since he saw me kiss Inuyasha when I was 12." She told him.
"12, you're fast." Sesshoumaru teased.
"Shut up!" she said hitting him with the pillow.
"I felt dizzy the other day." Kagome told him

“Why did you feel dizzy?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"I don't know." Kagome said. She stood up and got the ice cream out of the freezer and two spoons. She then walked back over to the couch and sat back down, handing Sesshoumaru a spoon. She then opened the ice-cream and started eating it. Sesshoumaru ate some as well. They sat back and watched a movie.

Kagome took the carton away from Sesshoumaru. "Have you called Rin, or your dad since you've been back?" she asked him.
"I talked to my dad on the plane, no one has heard from Rin, I have a feeling where she might be though." He said.
":Sess, Rin is 18,she and Kohaku are good for each other, why can't you accept that she's a big girl." She told him.

"Because, she is my little sister, I always protect her." Sesshoumaru said. He stood up and walked into the kitchen, getting a glass of water. He walked back into the living room and sat back down. "You need to talk to her." Kagome said, tossing Sesshoumaru the phone. He sighed. "There isn't anything I can do to make you change your mind about those two, is there?"

"Nope." He said.
"You're so much like Naraku." She told him. Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes at her. "Look woman I am nothing like Naraku." He growled. Kagome laughed at him.
"I beg to differ, you and Naraku both slept with Sango, only thing that's keeping you here is I promised you could have me even after I have your kid.' She said.

Sesshoumaru knew this was going to cost him but he had to. "You know your ass has gotten bigger." He said
Kagome growled and smacked Sesshoumaru on the forehead with her spoon. She then put the ice-cream away and went into her room to go to sleep, slamming the door behind her. Sesshoumaru smirked.
"I can always make her angry." Sesshoumaru said, watching tv. He then decided it was time for bed as well and he went to his room, changed, and went to sleep.
*********************************************************************
"Jerk, stupid dog!: she screamed knowing he heard her, she sat up in her bed fuming, her temper was no better than Naraku's. She got out the bed and walked over to the mirror and looked at herself.
"My ass is not big!" she screamed. Sesshoumaru's ears were ringing now.

Kagome walked out of her bedroom with bathing things.

"See if I come in your room!" she yelled and walked into the bathroom slamming the door behind her.
Sesshoumaru winced from the pain in his ears. He then stood up and walked into his room, getting some clothes to change into after his shower. Kagome stepped into the shower and said, "See if I make dinner tonight." Kagome washed her hair and got out of the shower. She then blow-dried her hair and got dressed in a black mini-skirt, not too short, not too long, and a white shirt.
She then walked out of the bathroom and walked into her room to get her shoes.

Sesshoumaru walked out his room and pass, her door, he opened her bedroom door and looked in. "Where are you going?" he asked her.
"Out!" she told him.
"What, come on Kagome I came back early just to be with you, you can't go out besides Naraku wouldn't approve of what you're wearing." He said.
"Do I look to you like I'm afraid of Naraku?" she asked him.
"I 'm sorry it was a joke." He said.

"Well, apparently it wasn't funny." Kagome said, walking past him and out the door.

Kagome rushed out of the building and ran into someone.
"I'm sorry, sir. You remind me of someone I know." Kagome said, looking at the man's face closely. "You look a lot like your mother." He said, looking at her. "Excuse me? How do you know my mother?" Kagome asked.
"Kagome, it's me, your father." Mikan said. Kagome backed away from him.
"You left. I never even knew you." Kagome said, hailing down a cab. Right as the cab left, Sesshoumaru came out of the building to see Kagome's father. "What are you doing here?" Sesshoumaru growled.
"I came to see my daughter." Mikan said.
"Well, you won't be so much as laying a finger on her." Sesshoumaru said.

"My, my you sound just like my idiot son." He said
"Leave and don't think I won't be telling Naraku you came here." He growled.
"Yes you two were always close, seems he did better than you, he owns his own company while you work for your father." Mikan told him.
"Keep away from Kagome, before you end up in the hospital." Sesshoumaru warned him. "Is that a threat?" Mikan hissed.
"No a promise.” Sesshoumaru growled.

Mikan smirked at Sesshoumaru and walked down the street.'At least I know where she lives now. Mikan said, walking down the sidewalk to find a bookstore.

Sesshoumaru walked back up to the apartment and called Naraku. "Hello?" Naraku said. "Naraku, it's Sess, your father was here and he talked to Kagome. Me and Kagome got into an argument and she left, running into your father. By the time I got out there, Kagome had left and he was still there."

"I'll kill him." Naraku said, his fist clenched

"Dare I ask what you said to make her mad?" Naraku asked.
"No, I don't think you want to know that." Sesshomaru said to him
. "Seeing as she is mad and didn't come here means you said something about her body." Naraku said to him.

"It was a joke, last time I said that to her we were naked." Sesshoumaru said.
Naraku growled. "I told you I don't want to hear about you and her i the bed. I got a front row view not to long ago."Naraku reminded him.

"Yeah, so did you call your mom and tell her about Mikan?" Sesshoumaru asked him changing the subject.
"She's away some trip she takes every year with her friends." He said.
"Look just make sure Kaggy get's back home." Naraku said and hung up.
******************************************************************
Kagome got out of her cab and walked into the flower shop. "Hey Sango." Kagome said. "Hey Kags. What's up?" Sango asked.

"My father came back." Kagome said, getting to work.
"That's not good." Sango said.
"Tell me about it." Kagome replied. She helped customers and was on her way to hail down a cab when Sesshoumaru drove up and said, "Get in."
"I don't think so. I'm still angry with you." Kagome said

"Kagome, Naraku said to make sure you got home, and that your father doesn't see you anymore, so get in." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome sighed and got into the car.


When Sesshoumaru and Kagome returned to their apartment, Kagome walked in and went straight to the kitchen. Sesshoumaru threw his keys on the coffee table. "Kagome about what I said earlier, I'm sorry, I just couldn't help myself." He said to her.
"Yeah ok." She said as she opened the refrigerator door.

"That's it, no yelling telling me what a jerk I am?" Sesshoumaru asked her.
"Not at the moment, I guess seeing my real dad through me off, I mean he looks so much like Naraku." She said.

Yeah, I know. But he left you guys, remember?" Sesshoumaru said. "Yeah, I know. But it's just... weird." Kagome said, pulling out some food for dinner. Sesshoumaru nodded his head and helped her make dinner. When it was ready, they served themselves and sat down at the table to eat. "Sess, I think I should go see the doctor." Kagome said.
"Why?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"In case I might be pregnant." Kagome said.

: "Why can't you just let me smell your stomach?" he asked her.
"Because you want to do everything the human way." She told him.
"It's too late to call for an appointment." He said.
"No, it's not you have connections and so do I." She reminded him.
"Correction, I have connections and so does Naraku, you have none." He said and flicked her on her nose.

Kagome wiggled her nose after Sess flicked it. "Alright, we'll make an appointment." Sesshoumaru said, eating more of his food.
"Thanks, Sess." Kagome said, finishing her food. She then waited for Sesshoumaru to finish and he helped her with the dishes. They then went and sat on the couch, watching a scary movie. Kagome kept jumping and she clutched onto Sesshoumaru.

Sesshoumaru carried Kagome into his bedroom and laid her down on the bed, he then got undressed and laid down in just his boxers. He then picked up his phone and called his own doctor, after making the appointment he laid down next to Kagome and went to sleep.

***********************************************************************

The next morning Naraku got up and went downstairs grabbing his cup of coffee he walked into the living room, and sat down when the doorbell rang. He growled as he walked over to the door and opened it to see his father.

"What the hell do you want!?" Naraku asked.
"I saw Kagome yesterday." Mikan said, walking into the house. Naraku growled as he closed the door.
"You need to leave, now." Naraku said.
"Why? I just got here, nice place you have." Mikan said, sitting down on the couch.
"Get out of my house." Naraku growled, setting down his coffee.

"Is that any way to talk to you father?" Mikan asked him.
"Father. You were the one who left when Kagome was just being born!"
"It was for the better, I must say your mother raised her well. " He said to Naraku. "We raised her. I had to be a brother and a father." Naraku hissed.
"And what a job you did, why is she living with that Tashio?!" Mikan yelled at him.
Naraku smirked. "If you must know, they are a couple trying to have a baby." Naraku told him, knowing that would make his father angry.

"What!?" Mikan yelled, standing up.
"You heard me, Kagome and Sesshoumaru are trying to have a baby." Naraku said, smirking. Mikan was furious. He walked out of the house, slamming the door, and got into this car, driving to Kagome's. He got out of his car and walked up to the counter. "Yes, how may I help you?" The lady asked.

"I'm looking for Kagome Taro and Sesshoumaru Taisho's apartment, please." Mikan said. "Room 481." The lady said.
"Thanks." Mikan replied and walked to the elevator. He got up to the floor and walked to the room number. He tried the doorknob to see it unlocked. He opened the door and walked in to see Kagome and Sesshoumaru on the couch, watching tv. "You shouldn't leave your door unlocked." Mikan said.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Sesshoumaru yelled.
"Saving my daughter from filth like you."Mikan growled.
"Filth?" Sesshoumaru growled.
"Yes, Naraku told me you're trying to have a pup with my daughter!" he yelled. Kagome was going to kill Naraku. "So what if I am, she's grown, and you have no say seeing as you were nowhere around, Naraku gave his approval." Sesshoumaru told him.


Kagome stood up. "I would like you to leave. You’re too late, I'm having a doctor's appointment to see if I'm pregnant." Kagome said, glaring at her so called 'father.' Mikan growled.
"Like hell you are going to get pregnant!"
"Why, so you don't have to abandon me again?!" Kagome yelled.
"I had to, Kagome." Mikan said, walking toward her.
"Whatever! Stay away from me!" Kagome yelled, walking into her room and slamming the door, locking it.

"This isn’t over." Mikan said to Sesshoumaru and left.
Sesshoumaru picked up his cell phone and called Naraku. "Yes Sesshoumaru?" Naraku said to him.
"Why did you tell your father about Kagome and me?"
Naraku sighed, “Because he was getting on my nerves so I knew that piss him off, had no idea the old fool would come and see you." Naraku explained.

"Well I'm taking Kagome to the doctor." Sesshoumaru told him.
"Have fun." Naraku said as he answered the door.

"Naraku I missed you." The woman said. Sesshoumaru heard the female voice. He knew who it was. Naraku was sleeping with Sango.

Sesshoumaru hung up the phone, his jaw hanging open. Kagome walked out of her room, knowing that her father was gone, to see Sesshoumaru holding the phone and his mouth hanging open.
"Sess, what's wrong?" Kagome asked.
"Naraku is seeing Sango. I heard her on the other line before I hung up." Sesshoumaru said, hanging up the phone.
"But she is still seeing Miroku!" Kagome said. "I guess she is done with him. But it seems like he doesn't know yet." Sess said.

"See that!, I thought I saw her when I woke up this morning." She said as she grabbed her bag. and the two left the apartment and went to the doctor's.
Kagome signed her name and waited for the nurse to call her name. "Are we ready for this, I mean you can be a jerk at times."She said to him.
"So can you." He said.
"I know, but this is a child we are talking about, not each other." Kagome said. The nurse came out and said, "Kagome Taro." Kagome sighed and she and Sesshoumaru got up and followed the nurse. They got into the room and waited for the doctor. "Relax. We’ll be fine." Sesshoumaru said, holding her hand. The doctor walked into the room. "Good morning, Kagome, Mr. Taisho." "Good morning, doctor." Kagome and Sesshoumaru said.

"Now, Mr. Tashio called earlier and told us what you need so if you will take this." He said handing her the cup.
"There is a nurse waiting for you." He told her. Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru and walked out and followed the nurse to the other room.


“How long will it be, before you have the results?” Sesshoumaru asked him.
“Half and hour, you two can go and have breakfast while it’s being done.” He told him.
Sesshoumaru nodded his head and waited for Kagome to come back in the room.

Kagome came back in the room and sat down beside Sesshoumaru. “Kagome the test will take about half an hour maybe more, so I was telling Sesshoumaru that you two can go and get something to eat and then come back by then the results will be in.” The doctor told her.

“That long?, okay we’ll be back.” She said taking Sesshoumaru’s hand and walking out the office with Sesshoumaru.

Sesshoumaru drove to a restaurant where they ordered breakfast. “So If I am we have to call Naraku.” Kagome told him while they waited for their meals.

“Of course.” He told her squeezing her hand some.
The waiter came back with their meals and set it before them. “Kagome have you thought of any names?” he asked her.
“Mmm, no we’ll have to buy a baby book.” She told him.
“I’ll have to cut back on my hours at work.” Sesshoumaru said. As he cut his food.

“Yeah, you will.” She told him as she stole a piece of his bacon.
“Our child better not take after you.” Sesshoumaru said to her
“What’s that supposed to mean?” she asked him.
“Your manners that’s what.” He said.
Kagome narrowed her eyes at him and went back to eating, she was going to make him pay when she started to get cravings.

After breakfast was over, Sesshoumaru paid the bill and the two went back to the doctors’ office.

“You’re back. The doctor is waiting for you.” The receptionist told them. Sesshoumaru and Kagome went back into the room the doctor walked in with a folder.

“I have the results.”
