Chapter 16:

The rest of the night passed fast for the lovers upstairs and downstairs.

They now found themselves at the entrance looking at the party that was still going strong. "How about we go cruising?" Kagome asked from the warm comfort of Inuyasha's arms. Said person decided to agree with her, as not to get on her bad side, as long as they stopped for ramen.

"Sure, not much else we can do is there?" Miroku asked. Kagome smiled and began walking outside, dragging Inuyasha. Sango and Miroku walked next to each other, not far behind.

They all climbed into the limo, Sango and Miroku in the front and Kagome and Inuyasha in the middle. Kagome quickly turned on the radio. 'Hey Driver' by Lucky Boys Confusion came on. Kagome relaxed back into the seat next to Inuyasha and his arm slipped around her shoulders. Kagome sighed and looked around the limo and decided to try the wine.

"Anybody want to try the wine?" Kagome asked sitting up again, much to Inuyasha's disappointment. They nodded in agreement and each had a glass. Inuyasha tried to drink his fast and ended up choking. Kagome calmly pat him on the back. "You have to sip wine Inuyasha." She took a small sip of hers. Sango sipped hers and looked out the window while Miroku was trying to slip his arm around her, trying not to be noticed.
Inuyasha slipped his arm around her waist and gave up on the wine, while the others drank theirs slowly. He leaned down and whispered in her ear then Kagome reached over and turned the radio off. Inuyasha growled low in his throat but Kagome leaned back and kissed him, subduing the sound. It turned into a whimper as Kagome pulled away and turned the tv on. She grabbed the small remote then leaned back on the seat.

Inuyasha pulled her as close as possible. Sango sighed and stretched. She closed her eyes and the noises from the tv lulled her to sleep, her head resting on Miroku's shoulder. Kagome looked at Sango and Miroku. She smiled, happy they were together. Miroku had fallen asleep his head resting on Sango's now.

Inuyasha looked down at Kagome. Kagome snuggled into his warmth then turned around in his lap so she was facing him. He looked down at her confused. "What's wrong, Kago-chan?" he stroked his fingers through her hair.

"Nothing, I'm just tired." She looked over at Sango and Miroku again and gave a small giggle. Inuyasha raised his eyebrow and looked over. Miroku was mumbling in his sleep about 'Sango…children...and five.' He looked at Kagome when she sighed.

"Go to sleep, I'll wake you when we get there."

"Thanks Inu-chan." She fisted her hands in his jacket and kissed his collarbone in a thankful manner. She turned back around and snuggled back in his lap and flipped through the channels. She decided to watch. HackSign until she fell asleep…or till they got home. It was already 12 so she decided to head home. The driver nodded at her request and she looked up at Inuyasha. "The last day of our vacation."

"Feh, you have to go back to that school of yours don't you?" Inuyasha asked sounding sad.

"Yea… Inuyasha?" Kagome put her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Hmm?"

"Do you think I could stay in this time more? This is my last year of school and then if I pass I don't have to go." Kagome said reaching up and gently rubbing the closest ear.

"I guess." Kagome looked at the purring Inu Hanyou with mild shock then kissed him. Inuyasha let out a pleased growl. "I should let you come home more often." Kagome giggled then looked out the window as the limo came to a stop.

"Were here." She went over and shook Sango awake, then Miroku. "Were here guys, lets go inside." They all stepped out and walked inside. Everyone immediately changed into the pajamas from before and met back in the living room.

"Im heading to bed Kagome-chan." Sango said then walked upstairs to sleep on the futon they had moved up there. Miroku left shortly after, bidding them goodnight then went to the futon in Souta's room...supposedly. Kagome walked outside in the backyard and stared up at the stars.

She jumped slightly when warm arms wrapped around her then relaxed into the embrace. Inuyasha turned her around and looked into her eyes. 'Now or never.' He mused to himself.

"Kagome…" he trailed off getting lost in her eyes.

"Hmm?"

"Will you…will you be my mate?" Kagome looked at him through her teary eyes. She brought her lips up to his in a gentle kiss, which answered his question.

"Of course." Inuyasha picked her up and spun her around happily. Kagome giggled and kissed him again. He pulled her inside.

"You'll get sick." He walked her up the stairs and was going to let her go in her room but looked confused as she led him down the hall. They walked to a room near the back.

"It's the guest room." She said as an explanation and shut the door after them. He looked at her lost and Kagome held in a giggle. She walked over to the bed and laid down. Inuyasha cocked his head to the side in a quiet question. She couldn't hold in her giggle this time and got up. She pulled him over to the bed and got under the covers, then pulled him under to. She snuggled into his warmth and promptly fell asleep.

Inuyasha gazed at her face, bathed in moonlight. He sighed, more content then ever and let the sleep take him.

END!!

Okay…I changed the last 2 chapters here… I may or may not do a sequel…if I do it wont be for a while…I wanted all my attention on my newest story that I am just starting to write…I have like 20 pages of notes so that's coming first cause my brain is ready to break down from that idea not coming out…so look out for it!

Plus I didn't want to write anymore sad stuff or anything, lol.

Well that was my first story…wow…it was more of an experiment… it started out just funny and silly but I guess as the time passed that I was writing it I grew up a bit and took my writing more seriously. So I really learned something. Well I'll stop talking now.

Now I can write my new story at the family reunion on Saturday (yay…-scowls- …why me??) and not feel guilty.

I love all my reviewers!! Thanks! Byes!
