~*~My Heart Is Yours~*~
A/N: You know what the funny thing is? Between my two fics "You Stole My Heart & My Heart Is Yours" and "More Than What She Seems", a huge piece of my motivation keeps bouncing from one story to the other and then back and forth and so on…^_^ that's why I've been typing more for "More Than What She Seems"…I remember a that a little while ago, I was really motivated for "My Heart Is Yours"…so my motivation bounced. Don't worry ^_~ my motivation is going to bounce back to this story soon. I updated because I didn't want you all to be sad…and mad. Don't get me wrong. I have this story all planned out. *sigh* Well, on with the story.
Epilogue, Part 3: A Perverted Monk's Wedding
"It feels like déjà vu, huh, Inu Yasha?" Kagome asked her husband as they walked down the aisle, their arms linked around each other. "Except that Miroku and Sango are the ones getting married."
Inu Yasha had an amused look on his face, "All I can say is: those two are copycats."
He yelped when she dug a heel onto his foot.
"SH!" she hissed. "Don't make a scene!"
"You started it!"
"Did not!"
"Did to!"
Kagome stuck out her tongue at him before they split up at the altar.
Miroku sweat-dropped at his two friends.
"They still act like they're not a couple," he chuckled. He looked at his side. Kohaku stood stiffly next to him, holding tightly onto the pillow that held the rings.
"You better not be thinking anything perverted in that head of yours when Sango walks down," Inu Yasha nudged Miroku hard.
"Don't worry about it," Miroku cleared his throat. "I won't."
(A/N: The boys/men are wearing tuxedos and since Kagome is the only bridesmaid and also the maid of a honor, only she is wearing a strapless lavender bridesmaid dress.)
*****With Sango*****
Sango shifted from foot to foot nervously.
"Daddy, I'm so excited!" she whispered to her father beside her.
"Yes, I am too," he agreed.
She smiled at him. Miroku and she had decided on a small wedding ceremony…judging on experience from Inu Yasha and Kagome's wedding…which was pretty…wild, in her opinion.
She watched the couple walk down the aisle slowly and stifled a giggle when she heard Inu Yasha's barely audible yelp.
"Those two…" she shook her head.
She straightened up when the music changed.
"That's my cue," Sango breathed. She looped her arm around her father's and then, they both walked forward.
*****With Miroku*****
A princess. That's all Miroku saw when he spotted Sango in a thin-strapped white dress. Her hair was fastened up in the back of her head with a large clip…he couldn't see her face, not with that veil covering it. His breath caught in his throat as she walked down the aisle towards him in white high heels, an arm hooked around her father's and both hands clasping onto a large bouquet of blood red flowers.
"She looks so beautiful, huh?" Kagome asked, a few feet away from him.
Miroku nodded dumbly.
Inu Yasha watched as Sango loomed closer to them at every second.
'I know exactly how Miroku is feeling right now,' he thought, glancing at his best friend beside him. 'When Kagome walked down that aisle…all I saw in my vision was her.'
Inu Yasha sighed with a smile, 'So I guess Miroku only sees Sango right in front of him right now.'
*****With Sango*****
Sango and her father stopped at the altar. Her father took off the veil that covered his daughter's face.
"Sango, I love you very much," he said gently. "I hope you'll live a long and happy life with Miroku."
"I hope I will too," she hugged her father. "I love you too, Dad."
She pulled away.
Her father kissed her on the cheek, "My little flower. I wish your mother were here to see you getting married today. I know she would've been very happy."
Sango's eyes brimmed with tears and she gripped his hand.
She turned towards Miroku.
Sango blinked when something held her back from walking forward. She turned around.
"Uh, Dad," she sweat-dropped. "You can let go of my hand now."
Her father let go quickly, his face red with embarrassment, "Oh, right. Carry on."
*****^_^* Hehe…Later In the Ceremony*****
Miroku slipped the diamond ring onto Sango's finger and looked at her lovingly.
The priest said the final words and closed his book, "…you may now kiss the bride."
Miroku gathered his wife into his arms and kissed her.
Everyone clapped and cheered.
"I'm gonna cry," Kagome said beside Inu Yasha.
He put an around her waist and he chuckled, "You already ARE."
"Shut up!" she sniffed, wiping her eyes.
The two watched as Sango and Miroku pulled away from each other.
"We're finally married," Sango breathed.
"We're finally married…" Miroku nodded with a smile and at that moment his hands slipped…
"AAAAAH!" she screamed. "HENTAI!"
*SLAP!*
"You think they're going to get a divorce anytime soon?" Kagome sweat-dropped.
"If Miroku keeps up the groping, yes I do," Inu Yasha shook his head.
*****The Reception*****
Sango and Miroku sliced a piece of cake together.
Miroku took the piece and tore a small portion off, "Here you go, darling. I know you want some."
He put it to her mouth and she eagerly bit into it...biting the fingers at the same time.
"OW!" he screeched.
Sango chewed with an innocent look, "I'm sorry, honey."
Miroku sucked on his thumb and index-finger, "Itzz-ookay…"
*****
"What'd I say?" Kagome nudged her husband (is it just me, or does it make them sound old now? Heehee. Keep in mind that they're 20-something right now. Remember? I forwarded through to when they were all done with college…*gasp* they ARE old! But let's just say they haven't aged one bit ^_~). "It's déjà vu…they're even having the reception here at Higurashi Shrine…just like we did!"
"Big deal," Inu Yasha shrugged. "Your mother was the one that 'suggested' that they have the party here instead of at Sango's house."
"Well, my mother likes parties…especially weddings," she sweat-dropped.
"OKAY EVERYONE!" Mrs. Higurashi's voice was heard, exclaiming through the microphone. "TIME FOR OUR NEWLY WED COUPLE'S FIRST DANCE!"
Inu Yasha gave his wife an amused look, "So I've seen and heard."
*****
Miroku wrapped his arms around Sango's waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck as a slow song came on.
(Disclaimer for the song and lyrics: I don't own them. The song is called, "Endless Love".)
"My love,
There's only you in my life,
The only thing that's right.
My first love, you're ev'ry breath I take,
You're ev'ry step I make.
And I, I want to share all my love with you.
No one else will do.
And your eyes, they tell me how much you care.
Oh, yes, you will always be my endless love…"
"Everything they say in this song is true," Miroku smiled at his wife.
"I know," Sango smiled back.
*****
Kagome rested her head against Inu Yasha's chest and they slowly danced to the music along with everyone else.
"…Two hearts, two hearts that beat as one,
Our lives have just begun.
Forever, I'll hold you close in my arms,
I can't resist your charms.
And love, I'll be a fool for you,
I'm sure, you know I don't mind.
'Cause you, you mean the world to me.
Oh, I know I've found in you my endless love.
Oh, and love, I'll be that fool for you,
I'm sure, you know I don't mind.
And yes, you'll be the only one.
No one can deny this love I have inside.
I'll give it all to you, my love, my love,
My endless love…"
"I feel your heart beating, Inu Yasha," Kagome murmured, her eyes closed. She continued with a giggle. "And yup, I can't resist your charms."
"And I'll be a fool for you," he replied with a smirk, reciting from the song. "Because you know I don't mind…except maybe I will sometimes…"
She shot up her head and glared at him, "You baka! You call yourself romantic?!"
"Do you?" he shot back with a smug grin.
Kagome dropped her head onto his chest again with a grumble. He chuckled.
"But you mean the world to me," he said quietly with a smile. "…my endless love."
"Okay, you are romantic," she said back to him, muffled.
The two continued to dance in silence.
"I bet you 100 yen that Miroku is going to grope Sango in the next 30 minutes," Inu Yasha whispered.
"We~ll," Kagome looked up at him. "I bet you 200 yen that Miroku is going to grope Sango in the next 15 minutes."
They gave each other a competitive glare.
*****
"We both lost the bet," Kagome whined. "He didn't grope her at all!"
"I can't believe this," Inu Yasha shook his head. "During the whole reception, he hasn't groped her OR any other women."
They watched as Miroku and Sango got into Sango's BMW after putting their luggage in the trunk. They were leaving for their honeymoon (I know: already?! ^_^*).
"Well, I'm impressed," Kagome laughed. Inu Yasha nodded in agreement.
They turned to walk back into the shrine as Sango drove off (remember, Miroku is a reckless driver! ^_^).
The couple stopped in their tracks and turned around when they heard the echoing of three words that a familiar person's voice shrieked throughout the whole street…
"AAAH! You HENTAI!"
A/N: Well, next part is about…hm, I'm not sure yet…oh, wait, I do! Hey, several people asked about lemon…^_^ well, I'm not going to really GET into lemon, but there is going to be MAJOR fluff. ^_~ *sigh* I just want to make you people happy. ^_^
Next chapter: Reminiscences of Two Honeymoons
Other notes: (to Luna Chic799) "Ja Ne" means…see ya/see ya later. ^_^
And (to Starfire) I know that Inu Yasha can be spelled out in three ways: Inuyasha, Inu Yasha, and Inu-Yasha. When I first began reading the comic, it was labeled: Inu-Yasha. When I bought the DVDs, it was labeled: Inu-Yasha ^_^* hehe. I've gotten used to THAT way. I've never seen Inu-Yasha spelled as Inuyasha until I went onto fanfiction.net. But since I'm so used to Inu-Yasha and since I don't want to waste a second on adding that dash, I'm spelling Inuyasha as Inu Yasha (except I still have to space it…so I wouldn't be saving any time either…so Inuyasha WOULD save me a second). I know Inuyasha is the correct way of spelling it, and I thank you for telling me that, but habits are sometimes hard to change. -_-. Especially with me. You know, Kikyo can be spelled Kikyou and Shippo can be spelled Shippou and Sota can be spelled Souta and Koga can be spelled Kouga…yeah, I've been wondering about that…what's with the 'o' sounds? Is it 'o' or 'ou'? In the comics, it's 'o', but in the anime subtitles, it's 'ou'. @.@
Well, I have to admit. I've been lazy…mostly because I'm tired. I'm sorry for not updating sooner. I've been reading and doing homework and reading fics and typing fics. The good part is: I retyped two of my first three 'already typed but were deleted' chapters for "Shrine of Love" and they're LONG 0_0 I didn't really notice until I finished each chapter.
To TABI: I'm STILL thinking about you're request. ^_^ Don't worry. There's a high possibility that your wish will be granted!
People have noticed that the characters in all of my stories have the same personalities and all. ^_^ hehe. You're all correct. But it's easier this way because I don't get confused between my very OWN stories. Except…"Shrine of Love" might have some major differences with my other stories…but I don't know yet.
If they're any questions, just e-mail me or ask me in a review. ^_~
Ja Ne!

…This has got to be the longest author note I ever made ^_^* sorry about that.
