A/N: Konichiwa, minna-san!! It's me, B-chan. I know I said C-chan would be
handling this chapter... but she decided not to... so I'm on my own on this
one. *sigh* She didn't even give me any suggestions as to what to do for
the shopping trip for decorations or anything. Oh well, I suppose she's
just being tough on me so I won't get lazy...
Okay, here's what's goin' down this chapter. We've got the decorations shopping, and the wedding rehearsal. There will be quite a bit of humor in this one, so be prepared to laugh, and swallow your soda before you read. That is, if you're drinking a soda... Well, at any rate you should swallow anything you might be eating or drinking before you start... or else it might end up all over your computer desk/table/whatever your computer sits on.
Well, now that that's settled... I have no review shoutouts, 'cuz nobody reviewed, but I'm updating anyway. Okay, Neko, let's get the disclaimer and get goin'.
NK: She owns no part of Inuyasha, but she does own me, Enzeru, Iruka, and J.D.
Me: Domo arigatou, Neko! Here's the story, minna-san!
C-chan: *walks in* *looks around * *glares at walks out *
Hmph.

Chapter 5: Preparations For the Wedding, pt. 2: Decorations and Rehearsal
After leaving the jewelry store, they were all in Neko's car, and she was explaining what needed to be bought at the decorations store. "We need to get ribbons and bows, and bouquets for you and the bridesmaids, Kagome. We'll get the flowers at the florist. What color scheme do you want for the decorations?"
"I thought blue, since the bridesmaids' dresses are a blue color. Maybe the same color as the dresses." Kagome replied.
"Ah, yes. Blue is a lovely color, and the old saying is, 'You marry in blue, you'll always be true!'" Neko exclaimed happily.
"I don't think it matters what color, we'll always be true anyway." Inuhanone says, gripping Kagome's hand and giving it a light squeeze. She just smiles over at him.
"That's just so sweet." J.D. comments from the driver's seat. (He has been their chauffeur for the whole day.)
"Okay, now we need to discuss dates and times. I also want to have a rehearsal the day before the wedding." Neko says.
"Well, we want the wedding to be on this Saturday, so the rehearsal should be on Friday." Inuhanone adds.
"Okay, I'll get the invitations made out as well." Neko says, "I'll drop them by your house tomorrow morning, Kagome."
"That'll be fine." That's when J.D. pulls the car into the parking lot. The other three step out of the car.
"What time do you want me to be back?" He asks. Neko glances at her watch.
"Hmm... It's three-thirty now... Probably about fifteen after." she replies, "I'll call you on your cell if we need you sooner."
"Alrighty then, see ya later!" J.D. waves as he drives off.
"I can't believe you trust him driving your car." Kagome says, giggling.
"Well, he's always been good to me, so I trust him. He may seem like the un- romantic type, but he's a really sweet guy... Once you get him alone..." Both girls start all-out laughing. Inuhanone was getting annoyed.
"Are we goin' in or not? Did we come to shop for decorations, or swap boyfriend stories?"
"Sorry Inuhanone. Let's go in now." Kagome apologizes. So, they head on into the store.
After looking around for a while, Inuhanone calls out to the girls, "Kagome, Neko, come over here!" Both girls oblige.
"What is it?" Neko asked.
"Look." Inuhanone holds up a big beautiful sky blue velvet bow with darker blue rhinestones glued in the center of it. The girls 'Ooh' and 'Aah' at it for a moment.
"Wow, their gorgeous! Their perfect!" Kagome exclaims, "And we can have ribbons the color of the rhinestones strung between the bows! Oh, it'll be wonderful!" She was so excited about this whole thing.
"Okay, now we need to look at arches." Neko says.
So, they walk around and look at all the arches together. "What do you think about this one?" Kagome says, pointing to a heart-shaped arch with small flower holders all along the top of it.
"I like it." Inuhanone says.
"Alright, looks like we've found all the stuff. Let's get this paid for, then we'll head off to the florist." Neko says, "Since we picked this arch, we need to get flowers for the flower holders on it. I suggest synthetic flowers, seeing as how real flowers are just a little bit over the budget to buy that many. But we will use real flowers for all the bouquets, though."
So, they went up to the register. "Yes, what will you be purchasing today?" the cashier asked.
"We want that heart-shaped arch over there, 12 of the sky blue velvet bows, and a spool of royal blue ribbon please." Neko replied.
"Okay, thank you." Neko paid for all the things, had them loaded into the car, and they all headed off to the florist.
* * * * * * * * * * * * *
After purchasing 5 small bouquets of sky blue roses, 1 larger bouquet of sky blue roses, and 10 tiny bouquets of synthetic sky blue roses, they left the florist and Kagome and Inuhanone were dropped off at Neko's office to pick up their cars.
They waved to Neko and J.D. as they drove off. "Well, see you Friday at the rehearsal, Kagome." Inuhanone said. She came up and gave him a hug. A blush spread across his face. She looked up at him.
"All this time and I can still make you blush..." She commented with a shake of her head.
"I wouldn't talk, you're blushing too." He replied with a small laugh. "Just think, Kagome. After Saturday, we'll be together forever." They smiled at each other, and Inuhanone leaned down and gave her a quick kiss. "We'd better get going, It's almost dinner time, and besides, our parents might worry about us."
"Okay, bye."
"Bye." With that, they both entered their cars and drove towards home.
* * * * * * * * * *
Friday came, and the entire wedding party was there. Neko and J.D. were there also. Neko because she wanted to be sure everything was going to run smoothly. J.D. because he was running the sound. (Meaning he's the one who plays Enzeru's music. She wasn't going to have a microphone because it was going to be such a small wedding.)
All the decorations were set up, with the exception of the bouquets. Also, everyone was dressed in their normal clothing. After all the other wedding procedures were practiced, it was time for Enzeru to practice her song.
The music for the song started to play, and Enzeru began to sing, "It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart." But when the next line came, she couldn't remember it, so she sang this instead,
"I've forgotten the words,
can someone help me out?"
Everyone burst out in laughter, including Enzeru.
Neko motioned for J.D. to stop the music.
"I thought you said you knew the words!" She exclaimed.
"I do... but I just went blank for a minute." Enzeru replies with a nervous laugh.
"Alright let's try this again, and this time, DON'T mess up!"
