Epilouge- A Lifetime With You

Kagome smiled at Sesshomaru as Kikyo came down the aisle. Kagome had insisted on having a wedding like she was used to and when she told Kikyo how they worked she agreed.

It had been six months since Kagome made her wish. Sesshomaru and Kagome had gotten much closer. When they got back Sesshomaru and Inuyasha had built a house for Kagome and her family and one for Ayuko. After awhile Kagome moved into Sesshomaru's home telling her mom that in this era 16 years old wasn't too young and that she needed to ajust to the customs. Kagome's mom agreed despite the fact Kagome was sure she would say no. Shippou then moved in with them too and they were a little family.

Sesshomaru however knew Kagome's fears were keeping them from getting as close as they could be. She had told him of her worries about her dying and him being alone. He had never thought about until she said it and now it bothered him too.

Kagome watched and listened as Kikyo and Inuyasha said there vows. Since her grandpa was the only one that actually knew these he was the one that was marrying them.

Kagome had never seen Inuyasha look so happy. She was still getting used to Kikyo looking happy. The day they were in her 'dream' was the first time she had ever seen Kikyo look happy.

They started the reception and everyone was dancing happily to the music out of some weird instruments Kagome had never seen before. Sesshomaru held out his hand and they swayed together to the music.

"Kagome this is not the time to worry. It is a happy day. So be happy."

"How can I?"

"Because we will have to worry about those things later, but not now."

"Why are you so calm about it?"

"Kagome now is not the time for this, so lets just have a good time."

"Okay, we will talk later then."

"Thank you." he kissed her forhead and the song ended. Her grandpa then took her to the dance floor.

"Kagome, I wish you would be happy. Everyone can see the sorrow in your eyes."

"Sorry, I'll stop while I'm here."

"Okay, child, thank you."

"May I cut in?"

"Of course Inuyasha. I am sure my granddaughter would enjoy a dance with you."

Kagome's grandpa moved out of the way and Inuyasha took his place.

"How are you Kagome?"

"I am fine."

"Your lying."

"Maybe, but my troubles are not yours. Don't worry about them."

"You know Kagome you are my best friendand you always will be."

"Your my best friend too. Now what are you doing fretting over me? Go dance with you wife."

Inuyasha obeyed and Inuyasha went and sat down at a table.

She watched all the happy people and wished she could be happy too. She did however mask this feeling because more people told her she looked better than she had earlier and that it must have been because she was nervous something would go wrong with the wedding.

Kagome sat down on her and Sesshomaru's bed looking at her hands. They slept in the same bed but nothing more than that. Even when they said they loved each other. Kagome said she wanted to wait until she was married before anything else happened.

Sesshomaru watched her from the doorway. He wanted to marry her but knew she was too worried about what would happen when she died. He came and sat beside her on the bed.

"Kagome, there is a ritual. That will solve our problem."

"What is it?"

"I can become a mortal. Your grandfather told me I'd still be a youkai, but I wouldn't have the life sapn nor the healing powers."

"But you are so proud of all of that. I could never ask you to give anything like that up."

"I know you won't, but I want to. I would rather live one lifetime with you than go on centuries alone without you when you were gone."

"But I can't let you do it. You only want to do it to make me happy."

"I want to do it for that reason, yes, but i want to do it for me too. For us. So we can move on and we can get married. I have been waiting a long time for you to marry me."

"I know, but are you sure?"

"Yes, I am."

She looked at his serious eyes and started criying.

"I love you, so much. Thank you."

"Why thank me? You saved me."

She kissed him passionately and as much as she wanted to do more she held back. Soon they would be married and she could wait until then.

"Mama, come here. Look at the pretty picture I drew for you."

"It is so beautiful, my baby. Thank you." Kagome patted her baby girl, Ayumi on the head. She looked like Inuyasha in girl form even though the baby wasn't his. They had guessed it was because she too was a hanyou.

"Yes it is, uh, good." Shesshomaru added putting his arm around his wife's waist.

The ritual hadn't went the way they had expected. Instead of making Sesshomaru mortal it made Kagome immortal. For once they had all been glad for her grandpas mix up.

"I can't beleive we've been married for five years. It seems like just yesterday that you just saved me."

"I'm glad all of that happpened. I love you and our daughter. You know she acts just like you. She is just so caring."

"Yes, well she is stubborn like you."

"Oh, really?"

Kagome knew that look and grabbed her three year olds hand.

"Come on before daddy get us!"

She ran off through the mansion with Sesshomaru chasing them. Sesshomaru knew he could catch them instanly but knew how much his daughter enjoyed the chase, so let it play out longer acting as if he had no idea where they had run off too.

Kagome of course knew this, but went along with it too. They were so happy with their life together and they lived many centuries after that. Their happines never went away as long as they both lived and even then it still lived on.
