Kag/Inu, one-shot. I don't own InuYasha! Based on the song "Suds in the Bucket" by Sara Evans.
Handsome Prince of Mine
He walked out of the well house and found her hanging up some laundry on the line.
"Hey..." He called. She turned around, and, upon seeing him, gave a smile so bright that her handsome prince was positive that the sun was jealous.
"I know that it's...been a while, but I've been really busy. I said I'd come though, and I did, didn't I?" She asked. He felt that his insides were practically boiling with joy to see her again, though he'd never admit it.
"But you're late." He replied tersely.
"I know, I know...I'm sorry..." She reached up and placed a tender kiss on his cheek. "Forgive me, please?" She gave him the puppy dog pout.
"...Fine." He almost blushed when she hugged him tightly.
"What are we waiting for? Shall we go?" She nudged him, turning red when he picked her up, bridal-style. "I-I can walk..."
He was smirking.
"No need for you to wear yourself out. Thank Kami that you aren't toting around that heavy backpack anymore." He said.
"That's because I'm not in school anymore. I graduated a couple of weeks ago, remember?"
"...I think so. You made me wear a hat and your 'modern' guys clothes."
While all this was being exchanged, he'd jumped through the well and landed on the other side.
"I hope Kaede's up to doing this." She sighed.
"Don't worry...She will be. I promise." He patted her hair.
Meanwhile, her absence hadn't gone unnoticed.
"After eighteen years...I treated her right...Why'd she do this?" Her mother fretted. "And with that boy, too..." she added softly.
"He must've just swept her off her feet..." A boy said. "Literally and emotionally and romantically."
"My poor, poor daughter..."
"I don't pity her! I think she liked him more than you'd know!" A second boy piped up.
Kaede looked between the two young lovers, and sighed.
"Ye are pronounced husband and his wife." She said.
The girl leaned forward on an impulse and kissed her new husband.
"Keh. Now that I've had to suffer through YOUR culture, you've got to deal with mine..." The boy's smirk was mischievous as he carried her through the night.
"I'm yours, Lord InuYasha." The girl, Kagome, teased.
"Don't
tempt me anymore than you already have, Kags." InuYasha warned
teasingly.
Needless to say, with Kikyou out of the picture and
Naraku dead, this couple lived happily ever after. Until a bunch of
little InuYashas were running around. Then it was mayhem. What about
Sesshoumaru? He's not in this fic, but I've heard that he's
recently purchased his own private island.
