Chapter Twenty

�Tadaima,� Kagome said wearily, pushing back the shoji and
stepping into the genkan. She was carrying Yukio
because his sling was still broken, and he was sleeping peacefully.
Inuyasha
closed the doors behind her and they both entered the house. Suddenly he
sniffed loudly, began to growl and raced towards the kitchen. She barely had
time to register what was happening before she heard his angry snarl and a
woman�s scream. Running to the kitchen, she found Inuyasha crouched on the
table, his hand around the throat of the good doctor who had hurt her. Her
mother was standing up, her eyes wide and frightened; a set of photographs of a
damaged car were scattered on the table.
�I told you
I�d kill you if you came anywhere near Kagome or my
son again, bitch!�
�Inuyasha!�
she cried.
Yukio, who
had begun to awaken the moment his father started growling, came to full
consciousness and wailed in terror. He�d been extremely on edge and sensitive
since the incident with Kouga, and Kagome feared he�d
been traumatized by it. He�d clung to her and started crying at the slightest
upset from either her or Inuyasha. It made for some very long and sleepless
nights of rocking and comforting him when he went into one of his fits. Both
she and Inuyasha were exhausted and on edge. Another altercation with the
doctor her mother had taken her to was the last thing they needed right now.
�What the
Hell are you doing here?� Inuyasha demanded.
�Inuyasha, let her go!�
He ignored
her and shook the woman roughly by the neck. �Answer me, bitch!�
�Inuyasha,
don�t make me subdue you! Let her go right now!� she threatened.
Still
snarling, he let the woman go, dropping her back down
to the chair she had been seated in. The doctor grabbed her throat and gasped
for air.
�Kagome,�
her mother said worriedly.
�What�s
going on Mama?� she asked, bouncing Yukio to calm him. He sniffled and let out
a whine. Inuyasha barked something back in inu-youkai
and the baby quieted, his golden eyes red and watery.
�Dr. Ishimoro came by with some photographs she wanted you to
see,� her mother answered guardedly.
There was
something in her eyes, a warning, and Kagome grew cold.
�What?�
Inuyasha growled, still on the table, his hackles still raised.
�You
damaged my car,� the doctor replied, picking up a photograph of a white car
with huge gashes across it.
�Keh! You�re lucky I didn�t do
that to your��
�Inuyasha!�
she yelled warningly, and amazingly Inuyasha heard the note in her voice and
stopped, his head coming around to face her.
�What?�
�Don�t say
another word,� she told him seriously.
He looked
at her, confused. �Why?�
The doctor
looked in the direction of Inuyasha and Yukio.
�The infant
is one of them too?�
She gave
the woman a tolerant look. �Isn�t it obvious? I would think the ears�d give ity.�he�s exaggerating, but she doesn�t need to know that.�
�Hah! You
think I don�t know a few priests? Things like you can be banished!�
�I�d like
to see any of your modern priests try, woman!� he countered.
�And you,
little girl, I�ll be talking with your high school administrator about your illness,�
the doctor sneered.
Kagome
blanched but did not reply. �If she gets
me kicked out of high school, my future is ruined. But� aside from telling the
truth or killing her, I don�t know what to do.�
�I warn you
again. Don�t make trouble for my daughter,� Mama said very seriously and very
calmly.
�Horny pig.�
�Damn,� he
said with a sigh. �Are we going back tonight?�
�Tomorrow.�
He sighed
again. �Okay.�
She reached
a hand behind her to pat him comfortingly. �I�ll make it up to you tonight.�
Inuyasha
brightened. �Promise?�
�Yes, I
promise.�
�Even if I want our our times?�
�We�ll see
if I�m still conscious.� �FOUR
times?�
He
chuckled. �I�m kidding.�
�Thank god.� �Good.�
�I�ll want
it five times,� he corrected, snickering into her hair.
�Horny
dog,� she chided.
�For you, always.�
Yukio asked
to be switched and she put one arm under him to lift him up so he could reach
the second nipple. She found that if she let him try to do it himself when she
was on her side, he would scrabble at her ribs in order to lift himself up and
he�d scratch her with his claws. She already had several healing wounds from
his previous attempts, and she found it easier, and less painful, to just prop
him up herself.
�You know I
am kidding, right?� Inuyashpan pan class=GramE>said, a hint of concern
in his voice.
She smiled.
�I know.�
�I love
what we do together, even if we only do it once.�
She nodded.
�Maybe twice.�

He nuzzled her ear. �I�ll make
them both good for you.�
lasslass=MsoNormal> She sighed,
wishing she could stay in bed with him. �You always do.�
�I do my
best.�
She tangled
her fingers with his and held his hand in silent response. He sighed and
cuddled up, resting his forehead against the back of her neck. It was amazing
how important touch was to him; even the slightest, simplest caress could make
him shiver.
�No one has ever touched him like I
do. Even before we... were lovers, I would touch him all the time. He�s never
said it, but I know he isn�t used to anyone being willing to touch him because
he is a hanyou. Horrible, prejudiced people. Makes me
so mad...�
�Oi, what are you thinking about that�s making you all
tense?�
�Just how
touch means so much to you and how I�m the only one who�s ever really done it,
and how horrible the people of your time are to shun you because you�re a
hanyou. They really don�t know what they�re missing.�
�Keh! Why bother yourself with
that? They aren�t worth your time. Besides, you said it yourself, you touch me.
That�s good enough,� he answered, licking her neck to soothe her.
�But it�s
so wrong. There�s nothing wrong with you. You�re good and kind and strong and loving.
It�s not right for them to hate you because of how you were born.�
�It�s just
how they are. No sense in worrying about it.�
�But...�
He stilled
her with a light nip at the nape of her neck. �Kagome... if they hadn�t hated
me, and if I hadn�t been shunned, and if things hadn�t happened the way that
they did, I would never have met you, and as hard and lonely it was, I wouldn�t
change a thing because I wouldn�t give up knowing you for the world.�
�But you
and Kikyou...�
He sighed.
�I would have become human for Kikyou, given up my hanyou powers and my
strength. And I would never have known what it�s like to be loved as I am, as a
hanyou. No Kagome, I don�t ever wish things had been different... no, that�s
not true. I wish I hadn�t said Kikyou�s name when Urasue made her clay body. I wish I hadn�t done that.�
�But then
you wouldn�t have her now,� she said.
�I don�t
have her now. Sometimes I think I never really did.�
�You have
me.� �For as long as we can stay
together.�
He nuzzled
her ear. �I know.�
Ayumi shook her head again. �No. I won�t tell anyone.
I promise!�
�Good.
Thank you.�
Yukio asked
to be switched so she moved him over, giving Ayumi a
good look at him. The girl gasped.
�Kagome�
the baby��
�Has puppy
ears, yes I know.�
She saw Ayumi gulp and knew her friend was just itching to ask. She
smiled to herself as Yukio took the second breast, mumbling a happy :Food.: in inu-youkai. She
barked back a soft, :Good pup.: to him and he sighed.
�Where did
you get him?� the girl asked timidly.
�About nine ri from Edo.�
�Nine ri from Edo? What?�
She
chucked. �It�s a long story.�
Ayumi bit her lip and stared at the baby. �Does he have a
tail too?�
Inuyasha
nearly choked on his food and coughed. �A tail??�
�Well�
yeah, if he has dog ears couldn�t he have a tail too?�
The hanyou
sputtered and Kagome held back a laugh.
�No, he
doesn�t have a tail. He does have claws and fangs though. Fangs he�d better be
careful not to use on his mother when he feeds,� she warned gently, tapping
Yukio on the back of his neck when he grazed her nipple with a canine.
:Sorry! Sorry!:
She cuddled
him and rubbed his back. :Forgiven.:
�Kagome�� Ayumi began uncertainly. �Kagome� is he� is he human?�
�No. Not exactly. But that�s obvious isn�t it?�
The girl
tittered nervously, but nodded. �Yeah.�
�Yukio is a
hanyou. An inu-hanyou to be exact.�
�Inu-hanyou?� Ayumi
repeated.
�His mother
was human, but his father was��
�A dog
demon?� the girl finished. �But Kagome� demons don�t exist��
�Inuyasha,
will you take off your cap, please?� she asked.
�My cap? Why? You spend all this time making me swear to
always wear it when I�m here in your blasted world and now you want me to take
it off?� he complained.
She gave
him a tolerant smile. �It�s okay, really. Go ahead and show Ayumi
your ears.�
He gave her
a confused look, but obeyed, taking off the hat. Ayumi
squealed when she saw his dog ears.
�OW!�
Inuyasha yelled.
�Inuyasha
is an inu-hanyou too,� she explained.
�Are they
real? Can I touch them?�
�Inuyasha?�
she asked.
The hanyou
bent his head so Ayumi could inspect his ears and the
girl rubbed them lightly.
�Be
careful. They�re really sensitive,� Kagome warned.
�They�re so
soft��
�Keh. What were you expecting?�
�Is this
why he�s so angry and violent all the time, Kagome?� Ayumi
questioned.
�Hey! I am
not,� he snorted, offended.
�No. He
just puts up a front so no one will figure out he�s just a big fluffy puppy
inside,� Kagome teased.
�Fluffy puppy!? I�ll show you fluffy puppy!�
Ayumi giggled then sobered. �Hey wait a minute! If you�re
an inu-hanyou and so is the
baby� is this baby yours? Are you two-timing Kagome again you big jerk?! And
then you ask her to raise it for you after you had a baby with your old
girlfriend? You�ve got some nerve buster!!�
�Eh?? What??!!� Inuyasha scrambled.
�Ayumi. Ayumi!� Kagome tried, but
the girl was off on a roll of indignant rage.
�You better
treat her right! Kagome�s too good hearted to tell you to stuff it, but I know
how much you made her cry!�
He looked
at her, aghast. �You�ve been talking about me?�
�Of course
she�s been talking about you! I�m her best friend. Who else is she going to cry
to when you cheat on her again? And now you bring her your illegitimate
half-demon baby to raise. You� you� Oooooo YOU
HORRIBLE, TWO-TIMING, VIOLENT, SELFISH JERK!� Ayumi
yelled.
Inuyasha
cringed and tried to hide behind Kagome.
�Kagom-e-e-e-e-e,� he begged.
She patted
his hand comfortingly.
�Kagome! How can you defend him after what
he�s done to you?!� Ayumi demanded.
�Because
the baby�s not his,� she said calmly.
�He�s not?�
�No.
Yukio�s parents are dead. Inuyasha and I adopted him after his mother died.�
Ayumi deflated, all her earlier ire disappearing and she
blushed with embarrassment. �Oh. Sorry, I just thought��
Inuyasha
snorted. �That�s right. You should be sorry to think I would do
such a thing to Kagome.�
�Inuyasha��
Kagome warned.
�What? I�m
not allowed to defend myself?�
�Of course
you are, but Ayumi doesn�t understand about you and
me. She made a wrong assumption, but now we�ve fixed it. It�s okay.�
�Keh!� he sniffed, but didn�t say anything more.
�I really
am sorry,� Ayumi apologized. �I shouldn�t have said
those things to you.�
�Feh! I�ve been called worse.
Don�t worry about it.�
Ayumi looked away, ashamed, but Kagome saw Inuyasha soften
and had to smile. �He�s so forgiving. He
wants everyone to think he�s hard and cold, but he isn�t. He�s so sweet. I love
him so much.�
Yukio
finished eating and she burped him, giving him a few extra cuddles because the
yelling had upset him.
�How much
time is left for lunch?� she asked.
Ayumi blinked then looked at her watch. �Umm� eight
minutes.�
�That�s
enough time,� she commented, taking one of the clean diapers Inuyasha had
brought with him and a cleaning cloth. It always amazed her just how much he
could carry stuffed in his haori.
She laid
the haori on the concrete floor and put Yukio on it
so she could change him, taking care not to dirty the red cloth. Then she put
him in the clean diaper and re-dressed him in his snap-on sweat pants, giving
his belly a little tickle. He giggled and kicked.
�It looks
like everything is quiet here. You should take him home,� she said, giving his haori back.
�I�m not
leaving you,� he refused, putting the garment on.
She handed
him Yukio when he was ready for him.
�I don�t
think anything is going to happen. Really, it�s okay.�
�I�ll
say when it�s okay, woman, and I�m not convinced. I�m
staying and that�s final.�
She sighed,
rolling her eyes. Ayumi looked to them.
�Is
something wrong?� the girl asked.
�Someone
else knows about Yukio and we were worried she would make trouble for us today,
but it doesn�t look like it.�
�Who?�
�A doctor
who examined me when my mom found out I was lactating. She came to the house
yesterday and caused a scene,� she explained.
�Oh how
horrible!�
She nodded.
�But it�s okay. My mom and grandfather took care of it.�
�Oh.�
�Anyway, we
need to get back,� she said, eating the last of her lunch quickly, then standing up.
Ayumi and Inuyasha stood with her. She leaned over and
kissed Yukio.
�I love
you,� she told the baby. He burbled back at her.
She kissed
Inuyasha on the cheek. �I love you too.�
He blushed
but gave her a small smile.
�I�ll pick
you up after school and take you home,� he told her.
�Okay. Be
safe, put your cap back on and stay out of sight.�
�Yes, yes,
wench, get going or you�ll be late.�
�And stay
out of trouble,� she warned as she and Ayumi headed
for the stairs.
�Me? You�re
the trouble maker!�
�Be lucky
you�re holding Yukio or I�d �s� you.�
�Feh!�
She giggled
as she and Ayumi went up the stairs.
��S� him?�
her friend asked.
�Long story.�
�Oh.�
The rest of
the day passed without incident and Inuyasha was true to his word. He met her
as soon as she was out of sight of the school and carried her home on his back;
leaping from building to building and making her laugh with the rush of
excitement and joy she felt whenever she was with him. That night she did her
homework, ate dinner with her family, played with her son and made love with
her man- twice as promised. In the morning they returned once again to the
Sengoku Jidai and resumed their hunt for the Shikon shards.
