Chapter 12





A few days after they had come home from their honeymoon Kagome had gone to speak with her teachers at school and explained everything that had happened. They had agreed to let her make up her classes, but she was unable to graduate with her class. Sesshomaru had wanted to throw her a huge party, but Kagome reminded him of every huge party that they had attended. He settled for taking her dinner with some friends.



Sesshomaru had finally finished with college and was now working with his father. A lot of people didn’t think that he had to work very had if he was the boss’s son. So he had made it a point to prove everyone wrong. He was normally the first one in the office and the last one to leave.



Kikyo and Inuyasha had been sent away until the baby was born. Naraku had started threatening Kikyo if she did not return to him. It had started to effect her pregnancy. Toga knew that there was only so much the police could do and hoped that he would be in jail by the time of the baby’s birth.



Sango and Miroku had recently become engaged. That really was not all that surprising to their friends. However, when Koga and Ayame should up after a vacation to Las Vegas and said they tied the knot you could have heard a pin drop. Everyone else had stayed on the same path they had before.



The months moved on and Kagome was now in her eighth month of pregnancy. She hated the way she felt in this large awkward body. Always bumping into things and always so tired. Rest was hard to find when she could not sleep on her stomach or her back. Sleeping on her side made her leg fall asleep and she had to keep rolling back and forth.



Sesshomaru was hardly around and she had to get all the baby things together herself. Of course her family and friends where at her side, but it was not the same. She often tried to stay awake to greet him but he would be too tired to talk. She was starting to think that he was repulsed by the way that she looked. Now she all together avoided him so he wouldn’t see her.



It was early evening when Kagome settled into the couch to watch a show on the television. A noise in the back of the house drew her attention. Making her way to the noise she noticed that the back door was open. Starting to get scared she turned to get her phone and call the police. As soon as she did she came face to face with Naraku and the barrel of a gun.



“Don’t scream bitch. Pick up the phone and call Kikyo.” He said calmly.



“I don’t know where she is I swear. I don’t.” Kagome said frantically.



“Then call the asshole husband of yours. Tell him to get Kikyo here as soon as possible. Inform him that if I even think that the cops on their way he will have a hell of a mess to clean up.” He said shoving the phone into her hand.

Kagome dialed with shaky hands and tears running down her face. Naraku didn’t even seem to notice or care about her fear. She heard Sesshomaru pick up on the other end of the line.



“Sesshomaru it’s Kagome.” She said choking back sobs.



“Kagome I will be home later. I can’t talk right now.” He said not paying enough attention to hear her cries. He had quickly hung up the phone on her.



Kagome couldn’t believe that he had done that. As a matter of fact Naraku couldn’t believe he had just done that. Both looked at each other in shock. She started to cry harder and beg for her life. Naraku handed her the phone again.



“Call your father inlaw and hope that he wants to talk to you.” Naraku snarled



Kagome was still so upset with Sesshomaru that she could barely breath. She heard Toga pick up the phone and prayed that he would give her at least five seconds of his precious time. If she ever saw Sesshomaru again she lay into him good for being such a bastard.



“It’s Kagome. DON’T HANG UP!!” She screamed frantically.



“Kagome calm down I wouldn’t hang up on you.” Toga said trying to calm the near hyperventilating girl.



“I need your help. I need Kikyo here. Naraku has a gun to my head and if he thinks that someone has called the cops he will kill me.” She choked out.



“Kagome don’t worry. I promise I will get you out of there.” Toga said hanging up the phone.



Naraku and Kagome were sitting at the kitchen table waiting for Kikyo to show. Kagome didn’t know if she was more upset by the gun or the fact that her husband had done what he had.



“I have nothing against you Kagome, but I’m desperate here.” Naraku said starting to calm down from the drugs. Kagome only nodded.



A car door alerted them someone had arrived. Looking out the window Naraku could see Toga with a hooded woman he had guessed was Kikyo. As the two walked into the kitchen Naraku lowered the weapon and moved to the cloaked figure. As he got a foot away from the cloaked figure a gun was thrust into his face.



“Drop your weapon and put your hands behind your back!” A male voice rang out.



She was crumbling in Toga’s arms as they led Naraku away in handcuffs. So angry and hurt by what had transpired that night that she packed a bag and left with Toga. She hoped that Sesshomaru got a good taste of what it was like to be alone, because he was going to stay that way till she calmed down.



When Sesshomaru finally arrived home he found that police where there. He ran to the house in fear that something had happened to Kagome and the baby. He recalled the phone cal from her earlier in the evening and his heart jumped to his throat. When the police informed him of what had happened he raced to his father’s house. Only to find that Kagome was refusing to see him.



“What do you mean she doesn’t want me here!” Sesshomaru yelled at his father.



“She had a gun to her head and you hung up on her. You would be lucky if she ever spoke to you again. She cried in my arms saying that you were sickened by the way she looked.” His father said sitting back behind his desk.



“What? I never said anything like that. I have been busy with the office and maybe she took it the wrong way.” Sesshomaru sighed



“She is pregnant. Of course she took it the wrong way. I don’t know how you are going to get her to talk …” Before he could finish Izayoi rushed in. “Kagome’s water just broke. She needs to get to the hospital.” She said and rushed back out of the room.



Sesshomaru jumped from his seat and rushed up the stairs. He found Kagome sitting on the side of the bed holding her stomach. She gave him an angry glare and what sounded like a growl. He moved to her side to touch her, but she hit him in the arm.



“What the hell do you want? Get out I don’t want you here!” She yelled as he flinched from the tone in her voice.



“Kagome, you can be angry with me later. Lets just get you to the hospital.” Sesshomaru said helping her to her feet.



The trip to the hospital had felt like hours even though it was only fifteen minutes. She had been settled into her room as the doctor came in and checked her. Being a month early the baby had not turned yet. She would have to have an emergency c-section to remove the baby.



The only nice thing was that she had not had to go through hours of labor pains. Sesshomaru was at her side in the operating room giving her sweet reassuring words and apologizing for being such an ass. He promised to cut back from working so hard to spend time with his family.



She gave him a smile and accepted his apology. The next sound that they heard was the cry of a little girl. The doctor handed the baby to Sesshomaru who stood stunned at the tiny creature in his hands. He leaned down and let Kagome see her. Happy tears as she looked at her daughter for the first time.



“Rin” Kagome said looking at her husband.



“Rin. It is a good name for her” He sighed as the baby opened her eyes to him.
