"It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together… and I knew it." – Tom Hanks,Sleepless In Seattle

The two had made their way home though Kagome being overly excited had made her that much more queasy. The duo quickly bought the root prescribed to her and went home. It was a fairy-tale for Kagome and she had once again fell into illusion that there was nothing wrong, that there were no big bads in the universe; she was content with being pregnant with her husband at her side. That night the two made love, sensual and sweet. Kagome laid her head on her husband's bare chest his braid resting on her head as the two had basked in each other's presence, engaging in the sweet aftermath. Kagome's lips pressed against his chest, hearing his heart thumping away beneath his skin. Closing her eyes she would have wrapped her warm leg around his waist, and drifted off into a blissful sleep. Morning had came peacefully as the couple remained in each other's arms, Obi-wan would have been the first to wake as he looked down at his angelic wife. Laying his head down on the plush pillow, Obi-wan would look towards the ceiling. He was going to be a father! Happiness coursed through him, but as he followed his thoughts to conclusion he would have realized that he would have to return to Coruscant at some point. He could make it seem like they had died and would have a life with Kagome and their child, but that seemed to be overrode by the fact that he had made an oath to the Jedi Temple. Groaning he would come to the realization that he had also made an oath to protect Kagome. Looking back down at his wife he would have realized what she had meant all those years ago about living a lie; mentally groaning once more he would have silently slipped out of bed covering his naked wife, keeping her warm in his absence. The man would have grabbed his robe and attire, he took a look back at his wife before going into the bathroom to shower.
Kagome had awoke perhaps two hours later to find her husband not at her side. Sitting up in their bed she allowed the brown sheets to slide down her body to pool at her hips, "Obi?" She whispered out, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Shaking her head she would have got up feeling slightly queasy, battling her bodily reactions to her pregnancy she ventured over to her dresser and pulled out a sun dress, bright and red she would have grabbed a bra and panties. The female would have showered, enjoying the warmth of the water massaging her awake. The shower ended within 45 minutes and with that she got out, dried off, and dressed. Kagome had started a new routine which consisted of her making her drink out of the root and sitting down outside. Kagome shielded by the balcony over looking the back of the homes would sit watching the clouds pass by in the blue skies in the distance. "How are you feeling?"

Kagome turned her head to see Shimi smiling over at her. "Good morning Shimi, I'm great. I can't believe I never thought the Kalamnasai root would be good for morning sickness, silly me! I want to thank you for yesterday, as well as apologize. You did not need to see a grown woman throw up." Kagome grimaced at the memory.

"It was no big deal, I am glad you just found out you were pregnant and it was nothing serious." Shimi smiled sitting next to Kagome who was bewildered for a moment.

"Did Obi-wan tell you?"

"No, but it was fairly obvious. I am sure that you two didn't just play chess on your honey-moon!" Shimi said with a smile that made Kagome flush with embarrassment. It was then that Kagome rested her palms on her tummy, "Obi-wan and I are going to be parents!" Kagome chirped softly, her eyes softening as she looked at her flat stomach. With a soft silence between them Kagome would look at Shimi at the corner of her eye. "Shimi can I ask you a question? A personal one?" Kagome said as she closed her eyes as a sweet breeze rushed over them.

"Of course!"

"Who is Anakin's father?"

Kagome would wait a moment before looking at Shimi who had merely looked forward towards the skies past the buildings and mountains, "There was no father. This is going to sound ludicrous but...I just awoke one day with a large belly and a few days later...I gave birth. I carried him, I bore him, I nursed him...I can't explain what happened." Shimi whispered.

"I believe you. Sometimes, things happen to us and we haven't any idea why. But Anakin is lucky to have you, a loving caring mother like yourself." Kagome whispered, "I just wish i'll be as good of mother."

"I'm sure you will be, you will have Obi-wan beside you. You two can accomplish anything."

Kagome would have nodded her head as she saw Obi-wan walking up the back steps looking at the two women, "Well good morning ladies. How are you feeling?"

"I am doing fine, but I think that the baby definitely wanted more sleep." Kagome grinned as Obi-wan reached over and touched her stomach.

"Shimi do you want something to drink?" Obi-wan questioned as he opened the door to their home.

"O-Oh no thank you. I probably should be waking up Anakin. See you two soon, perhaps we'll have dinner together tonight?" Shimi suggested which earned a smile from Kagome and Obi-wan. With that the mother of Anakin would have left the couple.

"Kagome are you going to stay out here for a bit?"

"Mhm."

"I love you."

"Aishiteru."

"W-what?"

"It means 'I love you' in Japanese. The land where I am from!" Kagome said as the man attempted to say it back but had failed. Grumbling the padawan learner would have left his wife to sit in the shade. Closing her eyes Kagome would relax her mind to the point where she could hear the ocean in her mind. The waves crashing to the shore-line. Kagome was happy, content, and most importantly in love. It was if they both were giving the rest of the world no second thought. Happiness. Warmth. Her memories went back to their moments on that beach. With her fingers still radiating on her stomach she thought of a millions ways that her child girl or boy would look. Would the child look like her? Or Obi-wan. Kagome hoped their child would look like him, had actually prayed.

When Kagome reopened her eyes the sun had been already past their home, which would soon set within a few hours time. "How did you sleep?" she heard a voice come from her side she had to blink for a moment until she realized it had been Obi-wan who was reading a book.

"How long have I been sleeping?" She murmured as her fingers wiped the sleep from her eyes.

"Well a good 7 hours. Are you sure that's not going to mess with your sleeping schedule?" he questioned as he leaned over kissing his wife's cheek. "Here I made you some more tea." he said as he pushed over the glass that tinkled as the ice clanked against the glass.

"7 hours?" She questioned as she pulled the glass into her hands. "Why did you let me sleep that long?" She grumbled as she half-glared at the man who had set down his book.

"Because any time I tried to wake you, you had smack my head. Jerk-reaction?" He questioned as he placed his hand on her knee.

"By the way Shimi is making dinner tonight since she didn't know if making things today would be the best for your over-sensitive body." he said chuckling as she rubberdher throat as she took a drink of the cold liquid. "When is dinner going to be?" She questioned as her eyes had watered as the cool water rested within her stomach which made her shiver slightly.

"In about an hour. Did I ever tell you how beautiful you look in red?" He flirted tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

"You always tell me i'm beautiful." she reminded him as he merely grinned reaching out for his wife's hand. "Shall we milady?"

"Milady? You haven't said that in forever." She breathed as she was instantly reminded of how the duo actually met. "You know you looked so surprised to see me walk off that ship." She said as she giggled at the memories, taking her husband's hand as he helped her up.

"Well you were so beautiful, there was something about you that I just couldn't take my eyes off. I think it was something in your nose." He said as he had a facial expression as if he were trying to remember the day, "Ah yes, you had something hanging from your nose!"

Kagome flushed in embarrassment as well as bemusement as she smacked his chest lightly, "There was not! The main reason I couldn't take my eyes off of you was because you had the start of stubble and I imagined an insanely hideous beard!" Kagome grumbled as she made her way inside their home.

"You truly hate beards. So are you saying I can't have one?" He grinned as he watched his wife walk over to their room.

"If you want a wife that will kiss you good morning and good night, you better have only stubble, and even that sir is pushing it!" Kagome called from the other room as she slipped on her red flats. Obi-wan would have grinned, "I honestly had thought you were an angel." Kagome heard from the door way as she saw him leaning onto the door-frame watching her. A blush rested upon her cheeks as she stood up straight, "And I thought you were a decently handsome man." She admitted as he simply walked over to her, his index finger and thumb softly pinching her chin to make her look up at him. With her heart beating erratically she would feel her husband lean down and kiss her, without any delay his tongue slid against her lips. "God you always taste so amazing." he whispered against her lips as he felt her rest her arms on his shoulders, her fingers locking together behind his neck. Obi-wan grabbed at his wife's thighs and carried her over towards a nearby wall, pressing her against it. With her legs wrapped around his waist he would pull away and look at the raven beauty in front of him. "We can get a quick one in huh?" he whispered nuzzling the soft curve of her neck.

"Quick? Obi-wan! You-"

"Pervert? For wanting to indulge in my wife's sweet body? Before she smacks me away telling me not now?" he grinned as his head rested against the curve of her breasts. Within a few moments he would look up to see his wife staring down at him with half-lidded eyes. It was then that Kagome felt his erection pressing at her mound, and without a second to spare she felt Obi-wan slightly grind into her body. With a breath Kagome's hand flew into his chestnut brown hair, her trembling fingers accidentally pulling out his hair tie that held his hair back. With a moan Obi-wan would have brought his wife back over to the bed. Looking down at Kagome he would have felt his body aching, begging to ravish her. Leaning down he would have kissed her softly before kissing down her throat, and down to her breasts.

"So that's what Watto meant about being like rabbits?" a small voice chirped through the room. Kagome and Obi-wan turned their heads in unison to see a horizontal view of little Anakin Skywalker.

"OH MY GOD!" Kagome cried out as her husband pulled away from her and took Anakin outside of the room. Within those seconds Kagome stood up on wobbly legs, adjusting her dress as Obi-wan would have shut the door in front of Anakin as his chest had heaved up and down.

"Anakin?! What are you doing in here?" Obi-wan called out as he realized his erection had been painfully hurting. Cock-blocker.

"Mom told me to come get you guys for dinner." he replied through the door.

"O-Okay honey...we'll be right over..."

"Are you guys going to do it again? Cause' I'll just tell mom to keep it all in the oven." Anakin said.

As the two had furiously blushed Kagome would take in a deep breath, "I'll go. You go take care of this one okay?" Kagome whispered patting at his obvious erection, before opening the door. Watching as Obi-wan scowled, she walked past him to lead Anakin out of their home. Obi-wan frustrated would have bounced from heel to toe. "We need to get a damn lock on that door." He grumbled, missing the honeymoon location very, very much.

Obi-wan would join his wife at the Skywalker home several minutes later. Walking in he would have kissed Shimi's cheek before walking into the kitchen to see his wife helping Shimi put the food upon the table. With a soft smile he watched his wife, obviously entranced by her beauty. Kagome would have noticed moments later that he had been watching her intently, and had blushed. The dinner between the four was sweet and relaxing. Anakin had talked about jokes he heard within the market which earned a scolding tone from Shimi. After dinner and after everything was cleaned up, Kagome and Shimi sat outside talking to one another while Obi-wan and Anakin had been working on their latest project, a protocol droid. It was then that Anakin had told Obi-wan that Watto wanted him to work in the shop with him, help him repair things. Obi-wan would have listened and had immediately smirked when he heard Anakin bringing up the angel looking girl at their wedding. Obi-wan merely chuckled, "Don't try to grow up to fast Anakin. You'll have plenty of time to chase after the girl you love." Obi-wan whispered as his thoughts were brought back to his wife.

"Do you know what you guys are going to have?" Anakin questioned as he properly installed the wiring to the droid's head.

"No it's too soon for that buddy."

"I hope she has a son. So she can have a son just like me."

Obi-wan would have chuckled as he ruffled the boys hair. It was then that Kagome stood in the doorway watching Obi-wan help Anakin build his droid. Her bubblegum lips tugged up into a smile as her heart string's tugged in unison. With her hand on her stomach she would imagine the day that Obi-wan would be doing this with their son or daughter. With a soft groan Kagome would feel her stomach was tender. Pursing her lips she would realize her husband had heard her as he had turned around looking at her.

"Kagome are you alright?"

"Mhm, just a bit tender is all." She answered him as he looked at the clock hanging in Anakin's room.

"We should get home anyways, it's already getting late." He said as he ruffled Anakin's hair again to earn a frustrated 'HEY!' "Night kid. Go to bed early, don't give your mom any issues!" Obi-wan warned as he and Kagome had left the room to say their good-night's to Shimi who was standing outside of the house.

"You two better bundle up, there's a sandstorm coming. Good night dears, sleep good tonight." Shimi said hugging the two before they ventured into their own home.

"You too Shimi," Kagome would smile as her husband had shut the door behind them.

Taking in a breath Kagome would look to see Obi-wan leaning against the door, looking at her with grin. "Oh no mister, don't even-" She decided at the last minute that her husband wouldn't be persuaded, and with this conclusion she attempted to run towards the bedroom to hide from her lustful husband. With her attempts to flee Obi-wan merely grabbed her from behind and carried her towards their couch. "O-Obi-wan!" She gasped as she felt him lay her onto the couch, before turning on the lights. With a grin still etched on his lips she couldn't help but grin herself as she watched as her husband slid close to her to where her legs were. "But Kagome." He mocked her voice. Sucking in a breath she would feel her husband rubbing her thighs. She would bite her bottom lip as she felt him pushing up the fabric of her sun dress to where it was above her abdomen, Kagome then took the initiative to pull off the rest of her dress, and her bra. Nearly naked Obi-wan strip himself of his robe tossing it aimlessly to the floor as he removed his belt while Kagome kicked off her panties to join the messy heap of clothing amidst the floor. No interruptions this time. Obi-wan kept his eyes on his beautiful wife as he pulled off his shirt, allowing his bare chest to mesmerize Kagome. With her eyes on his chest, he would have pulled down his trousers making it so they were both completely naked. Sucking in a breath Kagome would feel Obi-wan lean down on top of her lightly kissing her lips as her eyes would shut slightly, leaving them half-lidded as she brought her left hand to drag over his muscular flesh. One breath was all it took before the couple engaged in what would be another night of passion. The couple hadn't the strength to move so they had fell asleep on the couch, with Kagome laying on top of Obi-wan.

As morning came, Kagome had been the first to rise, looking down at her husband Kagome couldn't help but let out a soft giggle as she got up from on top from her husband. Wrapping a robe around her body she would would go to the bathroom to brush her teeth until she heard a soft knocking at the door. Grabbing a big blanket she placed it over her naked husband before running to the bathroom to rinse her mouth and face, "One second!" she called out as she then opened the door to see a bright light.

Seconds later Kagome would see an all too familiar person in front of her. "I told you I'd see you again Miko." With that simple phrase Kagome froze with fear as a crimson ball of light grew in front of her about to viciously barrel towards her in the small distance between them.
