My story will have its own little twist. Basically this is how the serario would go if Tamahome and Miaka were to get married.
As the sun filtered through the curtains and onto the face of a certain miko, she growled at the offending light that broke her from slumber and turned her body away only to find herself a certain Suzaku warrior staring at her like his life depended on it.
"Ohayo" came his bright morning greeting.
She cuddled herself to his chest "Mm... mm....more sleep"
He chuckled at her "Since when do you sleep in?" "Since my fiancée decided to keep me up half the night" was her reply
"You weren't complaining last night"
"well my mind was preoccupied, now let me sleep in please" she said as she covered her face in the pillow. Just as Tamahome was starting to get up from the bed he was pulled back by a certain miko "Where are you going?"
"One of us has to get up and make breakfast, and since I 'cruelly' kept you up last night I was going to cook myself"
flinging back the sheets she relented and got up to make breakfast and start the day "Its no fun to stay in bed alone anyway" she stated,sulking towards her fiancée who gladly opened his arms to hug her. She always felt protected when she was in his arms, like the whole world faded away and only the two of them together mattered.
It seems like just yesterday when they were fighting Nakago and trying to summon Suzaku, when their love would be tested by all means even eternal separation. But Suzaku,seeing the band that they shared had granted one last wish to the priestess which was that she would be able to stay with Tamahome and the others in their world.
Tai Yi Jun had even been so kind as to give her an enchanted mirror so she could communicate with her mother,brother and Yui. True she did occasionally miss her family and her childhood friend but it was worth it if she got to be with Tamahome.
The priestess was cut off from her thoughts when she felt her beloved start to kiss her neck and that sensitive place behind her ear.
"So are you gonna get up like a nice little girl? Or am I going to have to use my powers of persuasion on you?"
"mm mm....OK I'll give in, I have to meet Nuriko to help with the wedding arrangements anyway." She said with a pout
"it wont be so bad, think of it this way the sooner you get the arrangements done,the sooner we can get married, and the sooner we get married....." he stated while running his hands along her butt
She swatted away his hands and said with a smile "down boy, we agreed after marriage" then walked towards the furo, swaying her hips just a little bit more to infuriate the warrior.
While Tamahome walked out of their bedroom towards the kitchen muttering something about ravishing and furos.

Later that day as Miaka was trying to decide what kimono she should wear for the big day, she asked Nuriko "Nuriko do you think that I should prepare myself for that night?" The purple-haired warrior only gave a confused look "what are you talking about Miaka?"
"I mean about the wedding night....is there something I need to do? Since I'm not from this world I was just wondering about it"
"eh Miaka I don't think I should be the one to ask advise about that subject." he mumbled with a blush.
Miaka tried to hold back her laughter " I never knew you were so sensitive about the subject"
"I am not sensitive!!! I do have a daughter you know...she didn't drop from the sky" he roared. "but even though I do I should not be the one to counsel you on such a matter"
"why not?" asked Miaka
"because even though I have the soul and appearance of a woman, I am a guy"he answered "and as one my desires are different from a womans....understand??!"
"oh yes I understand completely Nuriko....so shall I ask your wife then? asked Miaka
"oh NO NO NO NO NO...no you cant ask her!" shouted the warrior
"and why in Suzaku's name not? She is a woman and she has experience in such matters, why shouldn't I ask her how to please a man on my wedding night?"
The purple-haired warrior blushed a bright red at her question
"oh I see now Nuriko,since she is your wife she would know how to please you personally......(sweat drop)....eh you know what I think I'll just ask someone else instead" she mumbled while doing a fairly good imitation of a tomato.
Meanwhile....
Tamahome had been training with Hotahori in the palace dojo. Ever since the power of Seiryu had been defeated they really had no use for their skills other that practicing with each other.
"is something on your mind Tamahome?" asked the emperor. "well...i....uh..."mumbled Tamahome. "out with it man,I've never seen you keep your opinions to yourself for long, might as well tell me now"
sighing Tamahome asked "I'm just a little worried about the wedding is all" Hotahori looked shocked at his comrade. "are you saying that you are having second thoughts about marrying Miaka?"
"oh gods no!!" exclaimed the warrior. "Then what is it?" asked the emperor.
"I'm just a little concerned about the wedding night is all..."
"oh is that it! Well that can be easily remedied. You see when a man meets a woman a powerful feeling stirs up within him..."
"I know that part baka!!!" shouted Tamahome
"Then I don't see your problem" stated Hotahori
"what if there is something in her world that I need to do for that? She maybe expecting something that I have no idea about" stated the soon-to-be husband before he slumped to the floor.
"hey,hey don't get all depressed. This is supposed to be the greatest time of your life!" said the emperor ,leaning a supportive hand on his comrades shoulder.
"Ya I suppose your right...I just hope she wont hate me"
"trust me,Miaka could never hate you,then or now no matter what you did" he said reminiscing.
Tamahome put on a silly face "Your right she never did fall for you no matter how hard you tried"
"I rather not relive the past"
