Okay I've decided to write all :) I'll start off with his one, then a few chapters in I'll write I like my Noodles (Although I'm not loving the title...might change) then I don't think I can handle writing two similar stories at the same time, but I eventually will write Show me Love.

The Perfected Arranged Marriage
By: Anime Girrrrl
"Tell me Inuyasha..." I look at her from the other side of the room, she seems to notice my attention on her.
"What were your parents like?" Kagome's question catches me by surprise.
"I'm not too sure about my father. People say he was courageous and brave and strong but pretty humble but I personally don't know." I'm not sure why I answered her question, truthfully. I would usually reply with a 'Keh' or something like that. Maybe I was wondering also?
"And your mother?" She asks quietly, obviously she knows how sensitive about this topic.
"She was...kind. She tried her best to protect me but it must've been hard for her to be alone with a hanyou child." Now I know I'm showing too much sensitivity by the way Kagome's eyes show pitty.
"Keh. But whatever I know now that she also pittied herself raising a hanyou child." Kagome gasps and mumbles my name. The sweet way she stumbles together my name she has her own tone to it, I can't help but to inwardly smile everytime my name graces her tongue.
"But Inuyasha...don't you think she wouldn't have mated with your father if she didn't want a child such as yourself? Don't you think she would have abandoned you? Don't you think she'd be like the others?" I look away now. She's right. She always is.
"I guess." She smiles and sits down in front of me.
"You must really love and miss your mother." I arch an eyebrow. I wouldn't mind seeing my mother again. Or meeting my father. I wouldn't mind at all.
She touches my cheek, with her soft ,warm hand and smiles.
"Goodnight Inuyasha."

(No POV)
'The day has finally come has it? The day when we collect the final piece of jewel shard?' Inuyasha smiled at the thought. It is now just Kagome and Inuyasha on this long journey. It's been a little over a year since they had started, Kagome and Inuyasha now sixteen. Sango went back to her village, alone. Miroku to his master. And Shippo to Keade's. Kagome hadn't been home since they defeated Naraku over 4 months ago. They all agreed to reunite after Inuyasha and Kagome's quest was over. Which would be today.
"Are you ready Inuyasha?" Kagome smiled to Inuyasha who seems to be in deep thought. Inuyasha nods but doesn't look up.
"What are you going to use the jewel for?" Kagome lightly tugs on her necklace which holds the jewels together.
Inuyasha snapped his head up to the beauty before him but quickly averted eye contact.
"I'm not sure anymore." Inuyasha remembered last week when Kagome asked this very same question.
She sighs, again.
"What's on your mind, Kagome?" My voice comes out a little hoarse. That's what happens when I don't talk for a long time and me and Kagome haven't talked in a little over three hours, only sighs and "mmm"s could be heard.
"Kagome?"
A final sigh is drawn from her mouth.
"What are you going to use the jewel for?" I think for a second.
"Your not going to kill me are you?" Kagome makes eye contact when I really wish she wouldn't. Why would she ask this?
"Why the FUCK would you say something like that?" Kagome looks near tears.
"I know you were thinking, a few months back about using the jewel for Kikyou to live."
"That was a while back but yes I was." I suddenly feel nervous.
"Well...if you do it's okay." A few tears slip from her eyes, her bright blue eyes that only she has. Not Kikyou. Kagome.
"I don't need your permission wench." My tone doesn't match my words.
"Well I'm giving it to you. You do realize that if you decide to bring Kikyou back to full life again, then she needs my soul. All of it. I will die. And I'm letting you know that if that what makes you happy then it's...it's alright with me."
I didn't know. How could I? Nobody told me! I wouldn't even think about it if somebody, anybody had told me. I'm panicking and I'm sure it shows.
"You're...you...You would give your life away for my happiness?" I feel stunned when she laughs slightly.
"Of course." Her voice comes out in a whisper.
"I won't." She looks curious, when this suddenly tumbles out my mouth, with so but sincerity.
"Won't what?"
Now the sigh come from me.
"I won't use the jewel for Kikyou! I didn't know. That you would die... It really really isn't worth...losing you over."
"It isn't?" I know it's what she wants to hear, and I know it's what I want to say, and then some but all I can do is shake my head vigorously. Suddenly something overcomes my fear of rejection, I probably let a little more out than I should.
"No. You are the most important thing to me. I promised I would protect you, even if that means from myself."
"What about Kikyou? Don't you love her anymore?" There is a silence.
She smiles and laughs.
"Thank you."
Reality brought Inuyasha back when Kagome held out her hand to help him up.
Inuyasha took it, loving the warmth that it brings to him, but is disappointed when her hand slipped away.
"Well we already know where the jewel shard is so let's get movin!"
"Somebody is enthusiastic so early in the morning." Inuyasha grumbled. They had heard a rumor of a jewel shard in a far away town three days ago, today they would make it there by sunset.
She furrows her eyebrows. "You have to admit, this is pretty exciting." he shrugged off her comment, knowing it was true.
He then squated down for her to hop onto his back, soon they're flying in the air, by the time it is sunset they arrive to the city as planned.
Inuyasha sniffed the air. "There's no sign of any demon..."
Kagome looked at Inuyasha in disbelief.
"Really? Because I sense a jewel shard rather close...unless it is a human?"
Inuyasha shook his head. "What would a human want with a jewel shard."
Kagome thought for a second. "Miroku-sama had a jewel shard."
"But he didn't know." Inuyasha reminded her.
"Maybe the person here doesn't know either?" Inuyasha sighed to this, getting rather annoyed.
"Don't you remember the rumor? 'The jewel shard is creating a lot of disturbance in the quiet town.' and only demons can use the shards remember?"
"I gue-what are you doing?" Inuyasha was on all fours sniffing the ground.
"I smell a demon, but it's almost like...it's trying to hide it's scent."
"Heh. You've got a nice nose puppy." Inuyasha stood up and turned to find a human looking man, but now he smelt of demon.
Inuyasha glared "Give us the jewel shard." Inuyasha took out his trusty sword "or I'll have to take it by force."
"uh uh uh" the demon man wagged his finger at Inuyasha. "Introductions first, I'm Kagnotito. And you?" Inuyasha glared and the man with long brown hair tied into a pony tail with normal brown eyes, wearing normal citizen clothes. The only trace of demon was his smell.
"Inuyasha, nice to meet you." Inuyasha spat.
"What about you girl? What are you to this man?" Kagnotito smiled at Kagome.
"We're allies." The demon smiled.
"That is all?" Inuyasha raised his eyebrow at Kagnotito.
Kagome nodded nervously.
"Well then," In one quick step he had Kagome around the waist with one arm, the other picking up her chin to look at him.
"Inuyasha, if you give me this beautiful girl, I'll give you the shard. She is truly beautiful with curves in all the right places." Inuyasha felt heat burning inside when Kagnotito went to grab one of Kagome breasts.
"Dint you fucking dare!" Inuyasha growled punching Kagnotito in the jaw, right before the demon's hand made it's way to the destination.
"Hmph." The demon on the ground smiled to Inuyasha. "The girl said you were but allies. Why would it matter to you if she is in my hands? Unless.." he started to find something extremely funny, he was laughing to tears. "N-No way! A pitiful half demon like you is in love with a woman like her?" Inuyasha felt lowly, lower than scum and dirt, his ears started to droop.
"Shut up! I'd rather be with Inuyasha than with you any day!" Kagome was holding a bow and arrow and pointing it to the demon on the ground.
Inuyasha was puzzled, but he knew she must have meant it since she hated demons that thought of him as low.
"Wench, you think you can defeat me with a simple bow and arrow?"
Kagome shot the arrow, and didn't miss. Kagnotito's eyes widened.
"Purification arrows?"
"Kaze no Kizu!" Inuyasha swung his sword, only once and the demon was gone.
"Wow! That was fairly easy! I was expecting some great big demon but that demon didn't even try!" Kagome picked up the jewel shard from the ground.
"Last jewel fragment." Inuyasha commented, almost sadly.
"Weird huh? I never thought this day would come and yet..." Kagome let Inuyasha finish her thought.
"And yet you wished it didn't." Kagome nodded taking the rest of the shards and gathering them all into her hands. There was a light much like the light in the well but it seemed brighter, and more pure. When Kagome had finished it was just like before only this time it there was no necklace with it (A/N: If you remember in the first chapter/episode the complete jewel came along on a necklace) Kagome placed the jewel into Inuyasha's hand but didn't take her hand out of his.
"Inuyasha, I'm glad I went on this journey with you." Kagome looked into his golden orbs and Inuyasha heart raced. She closed her eyes and went onto her tippy toes.
Inuyasha was almost paralyzed when Kagome's lips hit his, gently. It took him a little while to fully comprehend what was going on but when he did he immediately kissed back. But Kagome took her hand out of his stepped back and let there lips part with a little popping sound that made Inuyasha blush.
"Inuyasha," Inuyasha's blush deepened.
"Yes?" Kagome smiled. "Make your wish, Inuyasha."
'Ah yes, the wish. What to wish for? I just got the one thing I really wanted.' he smiled. 'And man was it worth it.' Suddenly remembered the night when Kagome asked about his question. And blue light surrounded him and the jewel disappeared.
"Huh?" Inuyasha looked around for a second. Nothing had happened, nothing had changed.
"What's the matter Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha looked back at her a shrugged.
"Nothing happened." Kagome smiled.
"What do you mean? I saw the light just a moment ago..."
"Mmm...But...I didn't even wish for anyth-"
They were both stopped by a blazing light and a harsh wind. Inuyasha pulled his arms around Kagome, making sure she didn't blow away.
When Inuyasha looked up he was stunned, Kagome knew the face from when Inuyasha gave a little 'visit' to Inuyasha way back when.
"M-mother?" Inuyasha was stunned, obviously the man next to her was his father. "Father?"
Inuyasha's Mother and Father were smiling to their son, who at the moment was still, what looked like, embracing Kagome.
"Hello Inuyasha." Izayoi said smiling.
"Yes, Hello, And I guess I should say nice to meet you too aye Boy?" Inutaisho (A/N: That's what I'm calling him since nobody knows his name) walked next to Inuyasha and slapped is back harshly, causing Inuyasha to clutch onto Kagome tighter. Inutaisho then walked next to Izayoi. "Ah, and who is this gorgeous woman Inuyasha?" Izayoi asked smiling. "This..." He cleared his throat letting Kagome go, but her arms were still brushing against his. "This is Kagome." Inutaisho smiled brightly. "Nice job son! I most definitely approve!"
Inuyasha was dumbfounded. "Approve...?" Inutaisho and Izayoi exchanged looks.
"Isn't that why you called us from he dead? Because you wanted us to approve of your mate?" Inutaisho seemed to be confused.
Inuyasha and Kagome blushed. "No! No way! What makes you think that?"
"Well you were just embracing her..." Inutaisho mumbled with a bright smile on his face. "That was-"
This time Izayoi giggled and ignored Inuyasha's discontinued comment. "Yes and you blushed when your father asked that to you...you both did maybe...you two are fiances'?"
Inuyasha blushed some more. "No!" Izayoi looked disappointed? "Lovers? Friends with benefits? Anything?!"
Inutaisho put a hand on her shoulder "Calm down Izayoi." Izayoi sighed. "I know I know. But the two of them would make such adorable children!" Izayoi pouted.
"Children? With this ugly girl?" Kagome glared him. "Inuyasha..." Inuyasha gulped. "Ohhh son your in trouble now."
"SIT BOY!" With that Inuyasha's face met the dirt.
"Inuyasha? You let your bitch control you?" Inuyasha let a big 'HA' "No way! Kagome doesn't control me, she just put this stupid rosary on me so I don't misbehave."
Inutaisho smirked "But she is your bitch?" Inuyasha blushed but then regained form and snarled "Bitch? This annoying girl? She sure bitches and is a bitch but not my bitch!" Kagome glared daggers. "Inuyasha-SIT" After Inuyasha regain composure he growled.
"Urg. 'Gome!" Inuyasha was clenching is teeth. "KAWAII!" Inuyasha and Kagome snapped their attention to Inuyasha's mother.
"Wha?" Izayoi was smiling brightly. "Did you hear that honey? Inuyasha called her 'Gome that is so cute."
"Keh." After a few seconds of Inutaisho whispering to his mate and 'uh huh's and 'oh yes' and 'of course of course' Izayoi was smiling.
"Kagome sweety," Izayoi started, getting everyone's attention. "Yes?" Izayoi continued, "Tell me, where does your family live?"
Kagome looked at Inuyasha for suggestion but he just stared at her. "Far far away." Kagome exclaimed. "Exactly how far?" Inutaisho asked.
"uh...it'll take 500 years to get there." Inutaisho and Izayoi looked at eachother.
Inuyasha sighed in defeat. It wouldn't hurt to tell them. After all it's not like it was a secret.
"I know this will sound a little crazy but...Kagome comes from, another world I guess you could say...500 years into the future." Inuyasha felt crazy explaining this.
Inutaisho laughed loudly. "Oh is she now? And I'm sure people in her time travel to the moon." Kagome opened her mouth to speak but decided against it.
"Why else do you think Kagome would wear such a flimsy getup? Everyone in her time wears this sort of stuff." Kagome wasn't wearing her normal school outfit, it was summer and extra hot today she was wearing a pink tank top and a black skirt, to this time this was 'revealing'. "I just thought we caught the two of you in the mix of an intimate moment." Izayoi said with a tint of confusion in her tone as Inutaisho nodded in agreement.
Inuyasha groaned, "How many times to I have to explain we're no like that!"
"Well, maybe you should 'be like that', psh kids these days." After Inutaisho spat this Inuyasha was about to go off on him, Kagome knew this from traveling with him for such a long time.
Kagome wrapped her arms around his arm a tugged him away. "Um Ms...Mrs..." Kagome didn't know how to address Inuyasha's mother- in fact she didn't know either of their names. Still enlocked arms with Inuyasha, Kagome frowned lightly "I'm sorry I didn't catch you names..."
"Just call me Izayoi and and my husband Inutaisho."
"Ah yes so Izayoi...what were you saying earlier- about my family and all?" Kagome asked awkwardly.
"Oh of course! Me and my husband would love to me your family! Say Inuyasha will you take all of us back to 'Kagome's time'?" Izayoi gave her son a smile.
Truthfully, Inuyasha was about to say no- but he was a mama's boy. And he actually missed her quite alot- and he definitely did not want to disappoint her.
"Yes of course but...why?"
"Secret." Inutaisho and Izayoi said together.
"Well, if we want to make it there in 3 days we better start get going now so we can settle somewhere." As they agreed they walked to a small clearing in the woods.
Inuyasha was wrapped up in some idle chat with Kagome as Inutaisho and Izayoi whispered to eachother, thanking the gods the Inuyasha wasn't paying attention to their conversation- he didn't even notice they were there, let alone whispering. He was staring and smiling at Kagome looking like a dumb fool in love, with his back towards his parents.
"It's nice to see our son being treated in such a kind way with him being a hanyou and all, I'd never think he'd find a woman who can love him equally." Izayoi was gazing at the couple in front of her.
"Yes, it's so obvious their in love with eachother. Why can't they tell?" Inutaisho replied in a grumbled whisper, obviously aggravated.
"Maybe our son just needs a little push?" Metaphorically speaking of course.
"Ah, I know exactly what you mean." Or maybe not.
Suddenly Inuyasha was being tumbled into Kagome's body, grasping anything he could to become stable once more. His left arm swerved around her waist and his right landed playfully on her right breast.
A little "Eep!" escaped from Kagome's mouth, but seeing his struggle she quickly wrapped her arms around him muscular waist.
Once stable Inuyasha turned on his heels glaring daggers, mentally wishing his eyes really could shoot out daggers so it could hit his target, his Dad.
But Inutaisho just grinned at his son. "Wow son you get to work fast, groping her suddenly like." Kagome in the background covered her chest and blushed.
"Why the fuck did you-" Inuyasha was about to tell his Dad off, but his mother interrupted "It's been forever since I took a bath, Kagome dear will you come along with me?" Kagome's head turned to see Izayoi, obviously not waiting for her answer since she was halfway out of the clearing, so Kagome had to run to catch up. Once they were out of sight Inuyasha went to thinking.
Yes he had already figured it out, because his heart really wanted to meet his parents there they came. But he really wasn't expecting them like this, he was expecting his Mom to be sweet and kind hearted, which sure she was but her personality changed, Or maybe he was too little to remember, actually now that he thought about it on rare moments when his Mother was with some village women he could vaguely remember that this was how she acted.
And his dad, wasn't at all what he thought he would be he was loud, and kind of kiddish, and pretty perverted, not Miroku perverted but close...ish.
But he had to admit he still loved them and was pretty happy he got to see them for, for how long? He didn't know. He doubted forever because Kagome once told him that the even the jewel want strong enough to make something come back to life forever.
"Hey," Inutaisho started, catching Inuyasha's attention, "Wanna go spy on the girls." Inuyasha arched an eyebrow. For a second he was seriously considering it, he hadn't seen Kagome naked in a while and he had an urge to every now and then...or maybe every second.
"No." Inuyasha said simply. He decided to keep his answers short just in case he might change his mind.
"Why not? Don't you want to catch a glimpse oh those big boobs you got to grab earlier?" Inutaisho had a smirk on his face and Inuyasha was about to tell him that the only reason he touched her there was because he'd aggressively pushed her into her.
"I've already seen Kagome naked." Inuyasha mumbled slightly.
"Oh ho ho! And did you like what you saw?" Inutaisho had a perverted smile on his face.
"She..." Inuyasha cleared his voice, saying something like this to his father was quite uncomfortable but he knew he would continue to press the question if he didn't answer.
"She has a very...very...very nice body, I'm not going to lie." Inuyasha's face had a pink tint, he was obviously thinking about her naked body.
"Is that why you love her?" Inutaisho asked teasingly. Inuyasha sighed, he knew that he was madly in love with Kagome, but they were just friends really really good friends, in fact he considered her his best friend but that's all they were, why tease his heart by admitting he loved her? He knew his father would just convince him that they were meant to be together, and that would just hurt.
But... wasn't the bond between father and son supposed to be unbreakable? Shouldn't the son share everything with his father?
"I'm in love with her, but I love her for her, not her body. But she only thinks of me as her protector."
Inutaisho laughed out, "Of course she thinks of you as her protector, that's all you lead her on to be. But, I didn't know she was the one you were protecting. Although who else..."
"Yes, she was the one who pulled Tessaiga out." Inuyasha lightly clutched his sheath.
"Mmm I see."
There was a silence for a few minutes before Inutaisho spoke again, "Inuyasha, you have lead a good life- I'm proud." He seemed serious and Inuyasha was about to reply when there was a scream coming from the hot spring.
With the women
"Doesn't this feel just great?" Izayoi asked spreading out her arms against the rocks.
Kagome usually ties her hair up but she felt the need to let it hang down to her waist. "Definitely, heaven for sure." Kagome almost drifted off to sleep when she heard a rustle in the trees, obviously Izayoi heard it too by the way she called out, "Anyone there?" Now both girls covered up.
"I...Inuyasha?" Kagome voice stuttered out his name.
Then realizing it wasn't Inuyasha not Inutaisho they both screamed.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed for his Savior.
YES twelve pages New record for me :)
Well yes, I've enjoyed writing this- but actually...I already wrote this on Thursday (today is Saturday) but everything got erased. I was so pissed. I took a break from it but I guess it was a blessing in disguised because I re-wrote half of it and it sounds much better now :)
Next chapter coming..Soon? Maybe? Who knows with me.
