. .. . . .. .
She's running through a forest clearing but at the same time she's also jumping fallen tree branches. The wind make her beautiful white veil move wildly along with her tousled black hair, yet that doesn't stop her from running. There is a fear and a pressure that doesn't let her stop running. Her hands hold her dress up allowing her to keep running. There's blood smeared on her pure white wedding gown. Yet with each step the pressure, the fear and desperation increase...
"*Gasp!*" Suddenly Kagome sits up in her bed as she wakes up from her dream; she's startled and a thin sheet of sweat covers her face. Blinking the drowsiness from her eyes she holds in her arms one of her pillows in the darkness of her room. "Such… A strange dream…" She whisper as she shakes her head, trying to dismiss that odd dream and get some more rest since the next two day were bound to be hectic.
. .. . .. . .. . .. .
"I'm telling you, mom, it was such a crazy dream!" said Kagome from inside the dressing room, "Yet it also felt so... real! Like if I was really running. I-I didn't know why but I just knew I had to run. Oh! And my dress-! It was cover in blood…!"
"*Gasp* Kagome, what non sense is that?" asked her mother, Ai.
"I'm… Not sure." Confessed Kagome.
"Maybe you should take as a premonition," Stated her sister, Kikyou, with a wicked smile as she pridefully turned the page in a bridal's magazine. "Maybe you should consider not getting married at all." She added. Her mother, who was standing next to the couch Kikyou was sitting on, quickly turned to her.
"Kikyou! You shouldn't say such things to your sister!" she scolded. Kikyou rolled her eyes.
"Mom, it was just an opinion. Relax."She said dismissing her mother's scolding.
"It must be the pre-wedding jitters, that's all." Reassured Ai to her daughter Kagome, who gave a small laugh.
"I thought so too." She confessed. "Well, anyways, here I come!" She announced happily as she open the dressing room door and walked out for her mother and sister to see her. "Tum tum tutum tu tutum tu turururu tutu turuturu." Added Kagome with a smile as she sang the traditional Wedding March song. Her mother clapped her hands over her mouth with a tissue, happily crying at the sight of her daughter in a bridal gown. Kikyou only stood up and crossed her arms as she frown. "Well, what do you think?" asked Kagome eagerly. She twirled so they could get a better view of her dress. It was a halter type dress, mermaid style; while the back of the dress left her bare back open in a diamond shape area.
"Oh my beautiful daughter!" exclaimed Ai crying, fusing over Kagome. "It looks perfect on you!" Added Ai.
"Perfect?! It fits bigger on me than last time! I've lost weight from all these nerves!" Exclaimed Kagome with half a laugh. Ai dismiss that sentence with a wave of her arms.
"Oh of course not, Kagome! You look breath-taking!" Repeated her mom as she begun to tear-up again.
"Oh, mom, please! Relax and stop being so melodramatic!" exclaimed Kikyou frustrated. Ai turned to her daughter and glared at her un-approvinly.
"You won't know this feeling until you get married and have children of your own." Snapped Ai. Kikyou let out a cynical laugh.
"As if that would ever happened. Why settler down and get tied to a men when you can take pleasure in many?" Asked Kikyou looking at her mother, who gasped and looked at her with a reproachful glare.
"Kikyou! What kind of talk is that for a decent girl?!" She scolded once again. Kikyou raised one eye brow.
"It's the talk of a smart women!" Declared Kikyou upset at her mother's outburst against her. "Why would I want to be tied down to one men and bare children from then onward as my biggest expectation of life? Huh? Or at least, why would I do that when I can have many rich and powerful men that can give me the life I truly deserve?" Said Kikyou with a small cynical laugh. "I will not follow your life as an example." Added Kikyou looking at her mother. Ai narrowed her eyes.
"Exactly why I'm worried about your way of thinking!" She exclaimed. "I do not want you to follow my life as an example," Declared Ai, "for I have been very unlucky where love is concerning." She admitted. "Instead I want you to learn from the mistakes I have made." Kikyou only rolled her eyes at her mother, ashamed of her mothers three failed marriages.
Kagome paid no mind to her sister's way of thinking, being use to it. Instead she smiled fondly at her older sister.
"Tsk tsk tsk. You think that way now, Kikyou, because you haven't found the right guy yet. Just wait until you find the guys that will make you fall head over hills for him and then we'll see what you think about this subject once again." Laughed Kagome warmly as seamstress begun to fit and make adjustments to her wedding gown.
"Like it happened to you?" Asked Kikyou bitterly at her sister. Kagome was facing the mirror but nodded anyways.
"Yes. Like it happened to me."Admitted Kagome ever so proud and happy about it.
. .. . .. . .. . .. .
"So, then, you aren't nervous at all?" Asked Genesobe, as she fanned herself, sitting on a very comfortable and luxurious couch, waiting.
"Why would I be?" Answer her son from the dressing room.
"Well, well, well. When I was getting married, I was as clumsy as they come. Dropping everything and tripping over air, per say, thanks to my nerves. " She exclaimed but inwardly smiled. Her son was always cool and collected. Her son laughed from he's dressing room.
"You do tent to over react." He teased her mother from the safety of the locked dressing room. Genesobe gasped.
"Sesshomaru!" She scolded looking away, "Those are the types of things your should lie to your mother about and just, and simply, agree with me." She added with a soft smile. She heard him laugh, and she was happy. Her son deserved to be very happy after everything they had been through; the smile disappeared from Genesobe's face as she relived their hardest moments.
First her husband- her abusive husband actually. He had mistreated her every time he could! He was a good for nothing men, yet sadly enough she had been too young to see he's true colors at the time they got married. Luckily once she had found out that she was pregnant with Sesshomaru she muster the courage to leave him. She left Spain and never turned back. Yet, of course, the fact that they were suddenly out of that men's grasp didn't mean their lives change from night to day. Oh no, she was alone and pregnant. There were times where she didn't have a shelter over her head at night or on rainy days. Yet she persevered and by the time Sesshomaru was born they had a little but cozy apartment to live in. Afterwards, when Sesshomaru was older, he begun to help her out in the economic aspect of their lives. It had pained her deeply to have her son help her out so fresh out of high school -for she had dreamed that maybe just maybe she was going to be able to help him with collage- when other young men he's age were out with the friends, having a good time and looking for girlfriends. Instead her son was working hard for them. Luckily her son was born with luck on he's side- or so she had always thought.
A smile graced Genesobe's lips at that last thought but suddenly her thoughts wonder far away; she begun to wonder if he ever got the chance to meet the land she loved the most -Spain- if he would love it as well?
Truly she had to admit that she still loved Spain and that she would love to be able to set foot there once again! Her most beautiful memories had been created there…
Including Sesshomaru himself.
She giggled as she continued to dwell on her memories, she was so lost in them to hear the dressing room door open and be followed by couple steps, stopping behind her sitting position on the couch. "Well, what do you think?" Asked a very deep yet warm voice she knew too well. Swiftly she turned around and her eyes widened.
Before her, standing tall and proud and regal was her son, Sesshomaru, dressed in a groom suit. The black suite, the white dress shirt and the golden vest and tie fitted him perfectly! He's brows suddenly furrowed as he knelt down and leaned a bit in front of he's mother; with one hand caressing the side of her face tenderly. "Why are you crying?" She blinked a bit dumbfounded at first for she had not realized she was crying. Looking into he's honey glazed eyes she waved her hand dismissing he's question as something important.
"Oh you know me! I am such a crier!" Laughed Genesobe softly, yet truth be told, her heart was too overwhelm with happiness and everything just burst out as soon as she saw him. " I am just so happy to see you dress like this…" She whisper looking at him. Sesshomaru deserved to be wearing that suit for he had fought tooth and nail for he's love. He had overcome every obstacle her family had thrown at him; yet he had even gone as far as setting up a business of he's own to earn enough money for her, so her family could see he was cable of caring for her and keep giving her the life style she was used to. He had accomplish everything wonderfully, so much that Sesshomaru and herself could afford to live more than comfortable now. But most of all… He had had the courage and bravery she had lack back then, "Maybe, just maybe, if I would of…" She whisper as an after thought. Sesshomaru looked at her inquisitive.
"If you would of what?" He asked curious. Genesobe smiled waving him off so they could stand up.
"If I would of gotten the other dress I would of matched with you." She said laughing. Sesshomaru rolled he's eyes standing up, Genesobe did so as well. "You look perfect, my son." She finally stated. He gave her a sincere smile in return; and as she hugged him she saw through a window someone familiar approaching. "Oh! Look who's coming!" And Sesshomaru turned around, smile and without a second thought walk out of the store.
. .. . .. . .. . .. .
"*Gasp!* Looks who's there, Kagome!" Exclaimed Ai interrupting the conversation between Kikyou and Kagome as they walked out of the bridal store. Kagome spun around and her surprise turned into a big wonderful smile as she ran and jump into her fiancee's hug.
. .. . .. . .. . .. .
Sesshomaru embraced the women in he's arms as she twirled her around, and once he settle her down he looked into her chocolate brown eyes that seemed to unarmed him every time.
And gently, ever so gently, he kissed her…
Kagura.
. .. . .. . .. . .. .
"Takashi!" Exclaimed Kagome happily as she heard her fiancee chuckle.
