OH MY GOODNESS. DID I TELL YOU GUYS JUST HOW AWESOME YOU ARE AT REVIEWING?

I woke up so early this morning for an appointment, then to go to volleyball practice, then to dance practice! I WAS SO NOT GOING TO UPDATE BECAUSE OF HOW TIRED I WAS, BUT SINCE YOUR REVIEWS CHEERED ME RIGHT UP, I AM REWARDING YOU GUYS WITH THIS CHAPTER.

HOPE YOU ENJOY :]


InuYasha stared at the beautiful woman in front of him. Her long black tresses cascading down her body and her gray/blue eyes hiding behind her long lashes as she blinked.

"Think we pulled it off?" she asked.

"I know we did. Now we got what we both want."

The woman laughed sitting down on the bed next to him, "I know, I bet Sango's gonna kill us for this, but I wanted to so badly get her back for what she did to us."

InuYasha kissed the beautiful woman now in his arms, "I know. Nice acting on the whole "our engagement is off" ordeal."

"What can I say, I'm a good actress."

"You looked so pissed I honestly thought you were serious the first few minutes of the argument. What were you thinking about?"

"Literally you leaving me for another woman. More specifically, Kikyo."

InuYasha looked at her surprised, "you know Kikyo?"

Kagome nodded, "I remember doing some research about Higurashi Crop, which led to Takashi Corp, which led to you and your life and at first I didn't want to read about it, but it intrigued me how much the woman and I looked alike."

"Oh…" was all he could say to that.

Kagome looked at him and dragged him down onto his soft bed, "you know she's part of the reason why I decided to go to America."

InuYasha looked over at her. "What? What did she do to you!" he asked, his anger getting the best of him.

"She told me where you were… on the night of the banquet. At first when I saw the picture of her on the internet, I didn't recognize her, but her cold eyes is what got me to remember her. I actually feel a little soiled because I know I had my own eyes as cold as she hers when I first met her, if not colder."

InuYasha sighed, "I really don't want to think about her right now."

"Why?"

"I just don't. She's my past now and she's part of the reason why my heart broke so easily when you left, and it's memories I wish to leave behind and completely forget about…"

"What do you mean part of the reason?"

"I mean… it's hard to explain." He ssaid trying to think of the simplest words to form a sentence, "she broke my heart the day I first met you and I guess from then on my heart was already a little broken so… when you left it fell apart completely."

"She had that much effect on you?"

"We had been dating for 3 years prior to that break up Kagome, it's going to affect me…"

"I kinda look like her you know… am I… like her replacement or something?"

"What? No! Where the hell did that even come from!" he said, why was she being so overly sensitive about this. It's not like he ever mentioned Kikyo or ever thought about her. Hell, this was the first time he thought about her since the break up.

Kagome shot up, sitting on the bed then turned to InuYasha, "I'm serious. Am I her replacement? Is that why you decided to play with my heart that day? Because I looked like Kikyo you wanted to see her in pain and since I looked like Kikyo it was good enough?"

"Kagome. Honestly where is this coming from. You are NOT a replacement for Kikyo! I would never do that to you! Yes, I admit I wanted to see Kikyo suffer, but I never thought of you as Kikyo. Not once. If you honestly think I'm using you to replace Kikyo, then how can I know that your trust me?"

Kagome took a deep breath, "I'm just kidding." She smiled and stuck her tongue out, "told ya I'm a good actress."

"Shit Kagome. Give a guy a warning yeah? I almost lost it!"

"I know I'm sorry. But I trust you, I thought you would've seen through my façade and go along with it. But I guess I'm just that good."

InuYasha chuckled and dragged Kagome back down on the bed, "that wasn't very nice." He warned. He positioned her so that her whole body was now on the bed and him straddling her in-between his legs, "you know your gonna have to be punished for that."

"WHAT?" Kagome's eye widened as she felt a tickling sensation on her stomach. "NO! STOP INUYASHA PLEASE! YOU KNOW HOW TICKLISH I AM!"

"All the better reason to tickle you my dear."

"MERCY! MERCY!"

"NEVER!" he yelled childishly.


"I can't believe the wedding is off!" yelled the frustrated Sango, "I mean honestly! How can those two be so…so…CHILDISH!" she yelled in complete frustration as she paced around the living room.

"Calm down Sango… it's not like it's the end of the world."

"But our wedding is meant for TWO! It is going to look really stupid if the other couple isn't there."

"I know… maybe they'll work things out?"

"NO WAY! If you had seen how mad and serious those two were, you can tell they meant every word they said."

"Unless they were acting."

"Acting? Why would they be acting?"

He shrugged, "Just a thought. Maybe to pay you back for what you did them? I don't know how those two's mind works…"

"Miroku, you have such lousy thoughts." Miroku sighed, maybe he did, and maybe he didn't, either way Sango wouldn't listen when she was angry so he didn't understand why he even tried. Guess it's because he loves her so much.

"I'm going to get those two BACK together. Like last time."

"You can't keep meddling in their affairs Sango. And besides, you can't lock them up in a room like last time. If they are as serious as you say they are, they might rip each other apart."

"Ugh. I hate to say this but you may be right…"

"Aren't I always?" he asked hugging her from behind to stop her from pacing. He was getting dizzy watching her go back and forth and back and forth.

"Come on, I know what'll take your mind off of it." He winked. She blushed and hit him lightly, but they headed to their bedroom anyway.


"Seriously, I thought I was going to die." Kagome said out of breath.

"Stop being dramatic." He whispered nursing the small bump on his head, which Kagome had "accidentally kicked" or so she claimed.

"So when should we tell Sango?"

"At the end of the week, so… 2 days from now."

"Gee, I don't think I can handle sneaking around anymore. My fiancé is not going to like that."

"Well what your fiancé doesn't know won't hurt him. Besides my fiancée won't like me sneaking around either."

"What your fiancée doesn't know won't hurt her."

"Touché" the two laughed and enjoyed the rest of their time together. A lot has happened, and things were finally getting better.


Sango stared at the two sitting on the redwood bench that decorated the hall of the main entrance.

"Are you two going to make up or what?"

Kagome and InuYasha looked the opposite directions of the other and "humfed"

Sango sighed, "are you gonna let your hard work go to waste?"

"He's cheating on me! I have proof."

"What?" Sango said surprised, "InuYasha… could you?"

"How could I— I'm not cheating on anyone! Kagome's just a drama queen!"

Sango screamed in frustration coming her hand through her hair, "I DON'T GET YOU TWO AT ALL!" she said walking away from the two towards the kitchen.

The couple waited until she was fully out of the room then Kagome hopped onto InuYasha's lap giving him a passionate kiss.

Miroku, who had been called by Sango to pick up some handcuffs walked through the door and just so happened to catch the two in the act. "Ahem." He said loud enough for the two to hear. He saw the two separate and almost laughed at how quickly then got away from each other. "So you guys were acting. See? I don't have lousy ideas. I was right about Kagome spending time with InuYasha and I was right about this!" he said proudly.

"Sango you CAN'T tell Sango." Kagome pleaded.

"You want me to lie to my wife?" he asked pretending to be offended.

"Oh shut up, you know its not that offensive." InuYasha butted-in.

Miroku shrugged, "What do I get in return?"

"Me not ripping you to pieces?"

Kagome looked over at InuYasha and rolled her eyes, "That's not a good reward babe." She turned to Miroku and asked the dreaded question, "What would you like?"

He pondered for a moment pretending to stroke the invisible hairs of his chin. "I want… a new car."

Kagome and InuYasha looked at each other with suspicion, "that's it?" they asked in unison.

"I'll make a list and tell me what you see fit."

"Too good to be true," said Kagome shaking her head.

"Oh Miroku, you're here, did you bring the stuff?"

"Yup, got it right here."

"Stuff? What stuff?" asked the now nervous Kagome.

Sango got an mischievous glint in her eye as she walked over to them and somehow slipped the handcuffs on their wrists.

"WHAT THE—GET THIS STUPID SHIT OFF SANGO!" yelled InuYasha who was pulling on, slightly forgetting that Kagome's arm was on the other hand.

"Not until you settle things." She turned her heels and dangled the keys in the air as she walked out the door, Miroku following behind, "Behave you too."

Kagome looked over at InuYasha with wide eyes, "Great… not that I mind being stuck to you… but how the hell are we going to get out of this one?"

"What do you mean? We just tell her it was all a joke and that we made up."

"If we tell her it was a joke, she's going to make us stay in these longer!"

"Then we say we've made up."

"She won't believe us if she thinks we really truly mad at each other. It could take weeks to make her believe us."

"What does she want us to do? Get married with handcuffs on?"

Kagome knocked on the bench they were sitting, "there's no way in hell I'm being married with handcuffs on me."

"I think we just screwed ourselves over then."

"Yeah… seems she's always one step ahead of us and she's not even aware of it."

"So what should we do?"

InuYasha thought of a second, "Okay… we'll just wait a day or two. Then we can tell her some BS lie like how being stuck together made us realize how much we need each other."

"Excuse me?"

InuYasha slapped himself in the face only to realize Kagome's hand was on the other end of the cuff and she winched in pain, "I'm sorry!" he said genuinely. That sentence came out wrong and I'm sorry I hurt you."

Kagome pursed her lips, "It's okay… but InuYasha… how are we going to go to the bathroom?"

InuYasha's face paled when his phone began ringing.

"Hello?"

"Your leaving for a business trip for 2 weeks, you leave tomorrow. Just a reminder" then he hung up.

InuYasha ignored Sesshoumaru's blunt attitude, 'probably forced by Rin to give me a call' he thought.

"Forget the bathroom, we've got another problem."
