Hey guys sorry I haven't updated in a while… I had what I called a writer rush for a book I'm working on basically it means I could write non-stop as in I couldn't do anything else until I at least wrote it. Now this weekend I reeeeeaaallly wanted to update on Summer of Betrothals because I haven't updated in like 3 months…then I realized my notebook only had a page and a half for the next chapter. So I decided to update this one since I have a notebook full of chapters. I also realized I have no big plot; this is like my first fanfic that has no villain or evil people. Just a nice cute romance for those who love demanding Inuyasha stories, well I've kept you waiting long enough so here we go!

Last time:

"We didn't decide the date Kagome." Izayoi said slowly as Kagome looked at them oddly.

"Who decided it then?"

"Inuyasha told us that you were fine with a date after graduation. And he took care of finding a judge and this date. He said he ran it by you and you were completely ok with it." Ai explained although had no idea what was fuming in her daughter's head.

Kagome's bangs hid away her eyes the two older women looking at her oddly. "Izayoi?" She asked as calmly as she managed.

"Yes?" Izayoi said watching her future daughter-in-law curiously. Kagome just looked up and smiled sweetly.

"Thank you for having me over today." She gave a small bow of respect walking away before the women could stop her. Going inside she made her way to the front door and opening it she stormed out onto the front grounds and now her expression had melted to reveal her peeved look. She started walking back the way to the gate on the dirt road her fists clenched at her side.

She should have known. He is on a roll for taking her life away. But what could she do? He was alpha, his way went. Even if she told her mother and Izayoi he was the one to come up with it, the wedding would still take place on the third. It made her sick how he was acting as alpha. Approaching the gate, the keeper was about to open it when a phone ring occurred. After the second ring he picked it up and was nodding and listening followed by a 'yes sir'. Looking over at Kagome he shook his head.

"Mr. Takahashi said to keep you here; he's on his way to give you a ride home."

Kagome's anger bomb was ticking until explosion as she could hear his car speeding up the drive and stopping right by her. Inside the driver's side he sat with that pleasant smug on his face. Kagome could feel his chuckle inside his head making her want to slap him. Muttering insults that she knew he could hear as she walked around to the other side. Buckling in she crossed her arms as the gates opened and he drove off.

"So did you have fun planning?" He joked chuckling as Kagome held out her tongue. "I hope you liked the date I picked out."

"Oh you were clever." She replied coldly. "To pick out a date hardly after I graduated."

"I thought you'd be happy with that."

"Sure you did." She said sarcastically as they both exchanged angry glances. Although Inuyasha's wasn't that angry.

They sat in silence through the drive. It wasn't long until he pulled up to the shrine and Kagome immediately got out. She muttered a small 'thanks' as she started walking up the shrine steps. Exhausted from her long day she entered the house.

"Kagome? Is that you?" She heard her grandfather call from the living room.

"Yeah Gramps," She responded treading upstairs.

"There's some take out on the stove."

Ignoring him, she walked up to her room not at all hungry.

Flicking on the lights, she sighed taking a seat on her bed. Before just giving up and going to bed.

The next morning as soon as Kagome was off to school she knew she had news for the others and a warning for Saiya. Walking into the homeroom they all had together she was not surprised to see Sango and Shia had already beaten her there.

"Morning," Kagome said gloomily as she approached them. The two looked a little concerned but put on a smile when Kagome walked up.

"Oh, good morning Kagome." Sango greeted with a smile as Kagome huffed.

"Yeah right, figuring out I'm tying the knot a few days after graduation last night and waking up today definitely felt like a good morning."

"WHAT!" Sango and Shia screamed before getting close up to Kagome's face.

"When did this happen?" Shia demanded pressing Kagome up against the wall.

"Apparently in-between the time I got engaged and yesterday." Kagome began pushing Shia off her as she crossed her arms. "So as soon as I'm out of high school my life is going to be a married pack leader life."

"Aren't you even gonna try and change the date?" Sango asked sadly.

"You know as well as I do he'll think I can come up with some loophole, besides him being alpha it goes his way." The two nodded solemnly as Kagome looked around.

"Where's Saiya?" She asked noticing his missing presence.

"He was called off today." Shia said leaning against the window sill.

"'Called off?' What do you mean?"

"He was called off for a meeting with Inuyasha today." Kagome froze up. Not good. She thought, feeling hesitant for the rest of the day.

As soon as Kagome got home she immediately ran to the wall phone and punched in Saiya's cell number. She had to check that she was alright. After five rings, she heard his usual message recording.

"Hey you reached Saiya, leave me a message." Slamming the phone in the wall she hit her head against the wall not knowing what to do.

"Kagome!" Her mother called as she entered the room. "Glad you're home; I think you and I should have a talk."

Kagome followed her mother out onto the grounds to have a few moments of peace as they stood under the old cherry blossom tree, full of pink blooming blossoms.

"What's wrong Mama?" Kagome asked looking over at her mother.

"Did you know this was where your father proposed to me?"

"Yeah, you told me after I turned sixteen. When we were having a party with the pack, and that was when Inuyasha proclaimed I was his future mate." Kagome rolled her eyes at the memory. Inuyasha standing up to wish her a 'happy birthday' and announced that she would be his future mate. Although him deciding they would be mates happened long before then.

Ai giggled. "Yes that was when a felt a little worried. You already having suitors, it reminded me of someone."

"Who?"

"Well, it reminded me of me. When I told you your father proposed to me under this tree, I was seventeen."

"What?" Kagome shouted startling a few birds.

"In my time I was able to drop out. And I did."

"Did you ever regret doing that?"

Ai sighed and took a seat on a bench as Kagome followed in suit.

"Sometimes I don't know. If I didn't I wouldn't probably be living here I might not have you or Souta. In all I wouldn't have had the life I had today." She sighed and looked over to her daughter. "I noticed you've been nervous and I know why. I know that you submitted under some circumstances that you would have never agreed to. I know how you never wanted to take in it and consent. But you should also know that it doesn't mean your life is being taken over."

Kagome sighed. "Mama it's not like that. It's the fact I haven't even lived out on my own. I'll admit I'm not like any of the other pack girls who dream to marry Inuyasha and have some high power in the pack. I haven't pursued any of my dreams yet."

Ai looked at her daughter with pity. It wasn't what she wanted to marry out of high school She could tell Kagome was afraid it would ruin her life. Getting up she gave her daughter a deep hug.

"It'll be fine," She comforted.

"Kagome!" Souta yelled out from the doorway. "Phone!"

Immediately dashing from her mother's arms she ran into the house for the awaiting phone hoping it was Saiya returning her call. Snatching the phone from Souta she held the device up to her ear.

"Hello? Saiya?" She answered hopefully. On the other end was a chuckle.

"I thought there was nothing between you two?" Kagome groaned as she leaned against the wall.

"Is it wrong to be worried about my friend when he was kidnapped by you?" She asked sarcastically. He chuckled again.

"I take that as a compliment."

"What do you want?"

"I was just calling to see how you were doing?"

"Oh dancing on rainbows…really! What did you do to Saiya?"

"You ARE my responsibility." Kagome felt her heart flutter and was happy this was a phone conversation and he couldn't smell her small arousal. "And you don't need to worry about your friend. I took care of him."

"Inuyasha," She growled.

"Wish I could chat, but I have a meeting." With that he hung up leaving Kagome growling as she slammed the phone into the wall in frustration.

Saiya returned to school two days later. When Kagome walked into homeroom she noticed he stood up with a greater amount of pride and confidence. Walking over she narrowed her eyes at him before punching him in the shoulder.

"Ouch! Hey!-"

"Where have you been? You had me worried!" Saiya looked down confused before smiling and giving her a small nudge.

"Sorry I was a little preoccupied."

"And what was so important that you were away from school for three days?"

Saiya stood up straighter, his chest puffed out with pride. "I was given a higher rank." Kagome looked dumbfounded and confused as Saiya chuckled. "I was bumped up to a level four." He clarified. Kagome knew in the pack they were listed in an order of ranks from one to five. One was of course the alpha male, Inuyasha. Two would be alpha female, which would be Kagome's rank. Third, the alpha's family. Fourth and fifth were the most common. Fourth contained troopers or fighters for the alpha's orders. Fifth was just remainder of the pack that followed after the upper classes.

Saiya always wanted to become a trooper level to protect the alpha family as well as the pack. There was only one way to pass up a level outside of Kagome's case. And that was by alpha's wishes. There were no types of tests to show skills of performance. If the alpha thought you worthy or wanted you up a level was the only way. But also Kagome was sure he would come in with cuts and bruises from being beaten by Inuyasha, not to be put up a level. Kagome knew Inuyasha was either being generous or hiding something. But right now, she couldn't decide which he was doing.

Ok I know that's a short chapter but I have other stuff to do. Also summer is nearing and last summer not only did I sign onto fan fiction but I did most of my stories.
