"Why would I? I'm proud to be pregnant with your baby, and I want everyone to know." Kagome announced proudly.
Tony smiled and kissed Kagome, "I'm going to give you the greatest wedding you could ever want."
Kagome hugged Tony as well as she could, "I don't need all that, Tony; all I need is you and our son."
Tony cooed at his fiancee and hugged her. He kissed the top of her head and sent her on her way with her mother to find the perfect wedding dress. Unfortunately, Souta had to return to Japan for school but not before he was fitted for his tuxedo for the wedding.
Kagome and Aiko went to a bridal shop where Shippou and Shiori met them. They spent several hours trying to decide on the perfect dress. Each person would pick out a dress for Kagome to try on, but eventually, Shiori picked the best one. It was a white Organza Satin material, Sleeveless, Sexy V back, Pleated, Mermaid style, Floor-Length Wedding Dress, Zipper closure on the back with button decoration. The dress was the most beautiful thing that Kagome had ever seen.
The seamstress said that it could easily be adjusted for her growing tummy, so that was one less thing to worry about.
While this was going on, JARVIS and Tony were working on everything else. JARVIS had suggested the best caterer in town. The reception would be held in the mansion, and the wedding would occur on the beach below. Tony decided that he was going to ask Rhodey to be his best man. There was no other person that Tony wanted at his side for his big day.
When Tony asked Rhodey to be his best man, Rhodey teared up, "Tony; it would be an honor," Rhodey replied.
"Kagome and I talked, and we want you to be godfather to our son, that is if you want to."
Rhodey grinned, "Of course, I do, Tone; nothing would make me happier. Who is Kagome going to choose for the godmother?"
"A half-youkai named Shiori."
Rhodey stood there for a while, then shook his head, "I can't believe there are demons out there."
"They prefer being called Youkai; they're not the demons you were taught as a kid, Platypus. They are some of the nicest and most loyal people I have ever met."
Tony suddenly grinned, "If you want, I could set you up with Shiori; she's a beautiful and intelligent young lady."
Rhodey rolled his eyes, "No thanks, I think I can manage by myself."
Tony shrugged, "Suit yourself, but you're in for a shock when you see her."
Time went by, and all the wedding details were almost finished. Everything was going great until an unexpected and unwanted guest came to see Tony. Pepper Potts drove up the driveway that led to Tony's house. She was nervous; it had been a long time since she had seen Tony, but Pepper knew that Tony would still be waiting for her.
Pepper parked in front of the house and tried to use her code key to enter, but access was denied. Pepper thought that was odd and tried again with the same results. She knocked on the door, and JARVIS answered.
**May I help you, Miss?**
"JARVIS, it's me, Pepper. Could you let me in, please? My key isn't working."
**I'm afraid, Miss Potts, I cannot let you in without Mr. Stark's authorization.**
Pepper was startled that she needed permission to enter Tony's house, so she told JARVIS to inform Tony she was there. JARVIS stayed quiet for a moment as he explained to Tony, who was at the door.
Tony sighed, "I wonder what she wants? Go ahead, JARVIS, let Pepper in."
The door swung open, and Pepper stepped in. She immediately went to the lab where Pepper knew Tony would be. When she arrived, she found the lab empty. Pepper tried her password to get in, but **Access was denied.** JARVIS informed Pepper.
"What do you mean my access was denied, JARVIS, I'm Tony's girlfriend, and I've always had access."
**That situation has changed, Ms. Potts, and your privileges have been rescinded.**
"What?! Why?"
"Because you're not CEO of Stark Industries, and we're no longer in a relationship. There's no need for you to have access," Tony said as he came downstairs.
"But Tony, I've come back!"
"I can see that, Pepper. What do you want?"
"I was wrong to end our relationship. I thought about it, and I can tolerate you being Iron Man. I want to get back together."
Tony stared at Pepper in amazement, "You can tolerate it? Pepper, this is who I am. Either you accept me wholeheartedly, or you don't. Besides, what makes you think I want to get back together with you?"
Pepper crossed her arms and gave Tony a disbelieving stare, "Oh come on, Tony, you know you need me. You can't even remember your social security number, and you need me to run Stark Industries for you."
That's when it dawned on Tony. She didn't want him; Pepper wanted the company. Tony shook his head, "Believe me, Pepper, you're the last person I need. I admit that I loved you once, but that is over. And I know the only reason you want to get back together is that Hammer Tech isn't working out for you, and you think I'll let you be CEO again. Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I don't need or want you in my life. Besides, I'm-"
At that moment, Kagome walked into the living room, cradling her belly, "Tony, do we have any pickles? I need them for my ice cream."
Kagome paused when she saw the strawberry blonde standing a bit too close to Tony. She immediately knew that this was the infamous Pepper Potts. Tony turned around and beamed at Kagome; he walked towards her and kissed the top of her head, placing his hand on her rounded belly.
Pepper zeroed in on Kagome's stomach and scowled, "So is that why you don't want to get back together? Did you get some random girl pregnant? How do you know it's yours, Tony?"
Tony's eyes narrowed, and he let go of Kagome, "Don't you ever speak about my fiancee like that; you have no right!"
"You're getting married? So she manipulated you with a child to marry her?"
"Watch what you say, Potts; I or I won't be responsible for my actions," Tony growled and stepped towards Pepper.
Pepper's eyes widened, and she took a step back. Kagome laid a comforting hand on Tony's arm, and he instantly calmed down. Kagome waddled towards Pepper and stood in front of her. Kagome was shorter than Pepper, but it didn't matter. Kagome pulled her fist back and punched Pepper in the face, and she fell to the floor.
"How dare you think that I'm using Tony. I love Tony with all my heart, his faults included. And I would never try to change ty he is. If you suggest otherwise, pregnant or not, I'll kick your ass. Now, I think you've worn out your welcome, JARVIS; show this trash to the door."
**With pleasure, Miss Kagome.**
With that, the door swung open. Pepper stood and cradled her face; she looked at Tony one last time and scowled at Kagome. Kagome took a warning step toward Pepper, and Pepper hurried out of the Mansion.
Once Pepper had gone, Tony wrapped his arm around Kagome, "That was so hot, Kagome. Let's go upstairs."
Kagome laughed and let Tony lead her upstairs for a night of fun.
