Chapter XIII
Finally
Once again, the silverihaired boy and the black-haired girl find themselves in each other's arms at long last. So blissful, so serene. The winds that had seperated them had vanished. So peaceful...so serene...
Kagome awoke the next morning in Inuyasha's arms, and the night before returned to her in a wave of utter contentment. She was his, belonged to him, the only person she'd ever loved. And soon they would be man and wife, bound together by a solemn oath.
She felt Inuyasha stir, and smiled down at his sleepy golden eyes. "Ohayou," she said, smiling.
"Ohayou," he said drowsily, yawning sleepily. "Kagome..It wasn't a dream?"
"Iie," she answered, eyes sparkling with delight. "Not a dream. Reality is so much better. It's still early..I might be able to sneak back into my room..Imagine what Sango-chan and Yamaneko-chan would say.."
"Do you have to leave so soon?" Inuyasha pouted.
"Gomen," she said, twisting a lock of his silver in her fingers. "But yes, I do have to go. And we can tell your parents...They'll be hapy, won't they?"
Inuyasha smiled, remembering that they were to be married. "Aa. Chichi-ue and Haha-ue will be pleased."
Kagome reluctantly left the comfort of his embrace and threw her yukata on, kissed Inuyasha on the cheek, and snuck to her room, silently opening the door and slipping in...
And was met with two pairs of very wide, very scared eyes.
"Ka..Kagome-chan.." Sango uttered.
"You..You didn't sleep here last night.." Yamaneko squeaked disbelievingly.
"WHERE WERE YOU?!" they screamed simultaneously.
"Eh?" Kagome's eyebrow twitched nervously. She was caught red-handed.
"Don't tell me," Sango said, screwing up her face in .
"You didn't.." Yamaneko gasped.
"Oh don't say it," Kagome said, ducking under her bed.
"KORA!" Yamaneko shouted, dropping her head to look under the bed. "Get back here! You are not leaving until you tell us everything! Every little detail!"
"Ecchi," Sango said, whacking the neko off of the bed. "You and Miroku belong together."
"Nah," Yamaneko replied after sitting up, licking her paw innocently. "You two are quite adorable. The way he looks at you.."
"The way he prefers your butt over everyone elses.." added a voice from beneath the bed.
Yamaneko dove under the bed, and with great difficulty, dragged Kagome out. Sango helped Yamaneko hold Kagome down. "Now you're going to tell us everything," Sango said while Yamaneko bared her teeth.
"A..Anou.." Kagome stammered, mind racing to think up a suitable lie. Sango and Yamaneko leaned closer. "You'll have to wait till after breakfast. Ja ne!" Kagome broke their grip and ran for the dining room.
"M-MATTE, KAGOME-CHAN!" Sango and Yamaneko cried, chasing after her.
~~~
During breakfast, Sango and Yamaneko kept finding excuses to not leave the dining room, not wanting to miss Kagome's confession. They noticed Kunshi and Miroku were also at the table, something rather unusual.
"She's sitting next to him," Yamaneko hissed behind her hand to Sango.
"Something's definately up," Sango said, nodding.
It came as they were finishing. "Anou..Chichi-ue, Haha-ue," Inuyasha said slowly. "Kagome and I..We're.." Kagome took Inuyasha's trembling hand under the table. We want to..Get married.."
"That's right," Kagome said, smiling nervously.
King Tsuyoi smiled broadly. "We're very happy for you."
"KAGOME-CHAN!" Sango and Yamaneko cried, glomping their friend very suddenly.
"Why didn't you tell us?" Sango sniffed, crying happily, while Yamaneko blew her nose.
"Kagome-chan's getting married!" she yelled happily.
The two serving maids suddenly remembered their place, and backed away, sweatdropping.
"Well, we'll have to make arrangements," Queen Hana said happily. "Kagome-sama and I will take care of everything, don't you boys worry."
"We'll help!" Sango and Yamaneko chorused.
"We are Kagome-chan's best friends, afterall," Sang said, twinkling.
"Un!" Yamaneko chirped.
"She and her mother did the same thing with our wedding," King Tsuyoi whispered to Inuyasha while Queen Hana and Kagome were eagerly discussing dates, kimonos, and what not. "What is it with women and weddings?"
"Congratulations, Inuyasha," Miroku said, clapping his hand on Inuyasha's shoulder, smiling brightly. "You and Kagome-sama deserve nothing but the best." Kunshi was very quickly filling wine glasses for everyone.
"Cheers to Inuyasha and Kagome!" Kunshi said, raising his glass.
"To Inuyasha and Kagome!" everyone said in unison, raising their glasses and drinking to the new happy couple.

WAI! Wedding! Next Chapter! n.n! The end is drawing closer, but we're not quite there yet.
ALSO: I do NOT know how weddings were like back then, so everything you see in the next chapter is all in my imagination. Now that I'm thinking about it, I might write a oneshot where Inuyasha and Kagome get married in Kagome's time..-sparkles- Waiii..Weddings are so much fun. n.n
