Bwahahaha. Another Chapter. Whoo-hoo! I should redo Chapter 1, but I'm being a bit of a procrastinator right now. So spare me.
Chapter 46 - Walking Down the AisleKagome smiled cheerfully. It was a beautiful day, not too hot, but not too cold. It had a fair amount of wind as well, making things look so peaceful and calm. They were at the chapel where Sesshomaru and Rin were holding their wedding. She wore her bridesmaid kimono, and her hair was up in a bun with curls hanging from the sides. A glass clip was fastened into the bun, keeping it in place. Sango stood beside her, wearing her own bridesmaid kimono, her hair in a similar fashion.
"I guess... this is it." She could hear Inuyasha say to Sesshomaru. He wore a traditional wedding outfit, with an uneasy expression.
"You're going to die." Was all Sesshomaru could make out. Inuyasha snickered. With Miroku as the priest, what else could go wrong? Well, for Inuyasha, he could name only a few. But with Sesshomaru, he had a whole book. Literally.
"Ah, he's joking, Sesshomaru. Oh, here she comes now," Miroku straightened his posture and looked straight ahead. The music started playing the original song when the bride comes. The doors burst open and there stood Rin, looking as beautiful as ever.
"Isn't she stunning, Sango?" Kagome whispered. Sango nodded.
"That kimono looks great on her!" The kimono Rin wore was the color of pure white. It made her have the appearance as if she were a goddess here to bless everyone... or she was a devil in disguise here to send everyone to hell. (Ah, I'm just kidding.)
Half her hair had been weaved into a braid, which was now into a bun. The other half, which was the lower part, was left down. Diamond dangle earrings hung from her ears with a matching necklace. She didn't have much makeup on, just because she was beautiful enough already.
Rin walked down the aisle, grinned radiantly. She was practically beaming. The people sat in awe as she walked gracefully toward the altar.
Sesshomaru smiled as she linked his arm with hers, her bouquet of flowers on the other. Miroku cleared his throat and started preaching. After they took their wedding sake, it was time for the vows.
"Do you, Sesshomaru Taisho, take Rin as your lawful wedding wife and have kinky sex just because you feel like it?" Sesshomaru hit Miroku on the head with his fist after he said 'I do'. Miroku grinned and turned to Rin.
"Miss Rin, would you like to bear my children?" This earned a double teamed hit from Sango and Sesshomaru. Miroku cleared his throat. 'Geez, crack a joke and they go after your head...'
Miroku coughed and started again. "Do you, Rin Yasashisa, take this particular Sesshomaru who hit me in the head as your awful," Miroku coughed and nearly died on the spot after seeing their glares,"I mean as your lawful wedded husband?" Rin gave Sesshomaru a smile.
"I do."
"Then I now give you permission to go forth and have as many kids as you want, regardless of the kinky, hot sex you'll be having, and so on and so forth." This earned Miroku a few minutes on the floor, knocked out by Sango.
The crowd applauded and congratulated the newly weds, took a couple of pictures, and left to go meet up again at the reception. Inuyasha had a smirk on his face as he went up the the couple.
"What did I tell ya? Told you Miroku was going to screw up," Inuyasha said. Sesshomaru sent a killer glare.
"So? Now he's knocked out."
Kagome gave Rin a big hug. "I want to congratulate you! I hope you two be very sucessful in life." Kagome grinned. "Your limo awaits you! See you at the reception!" She turned back to Inuyasha as soon as Rin and Sesshomaru left. Inuyasha gave her a wicked grin.
"Our wedding will be better than theirs," Inuyasha said out of the blue. Kagome stared at him. 'What did he mean by that?'
&&
The night passed by quickly, and Kagome found herself exhausted from dancing. Sesshomaru and Rin had probably already left for their honeymoon, and from what she heard they were going to America. She rolled over on her side and snuggled futher into Inuyasha's chest, shifting around until she found a very comfortable position.
She put her hands over her stomach, wondering if it'll be a boy or a girl... She slowly drifted off to sleep, dreaming about her life with Inuyasha.
Inuyasha opened his eyes. Kagome had just fallen asleep minutes ago. He nuzzled his head deeper in her hair, his tight and firm grip on her body getting tighter. He inhaled her scent like always, and it always made him fall asleep better. 'Kagome... Will you marry me?' He pushed that thought out of his mind, wondering what her answer will be. He summoned up his courage and finally decided that he would get a ring and propose to her when he gets home.
He closed his eyes to think about what will happen next on the day to come.
Kagome snapped her eyes open, the morning sickness already going up her throat. She pushed herself up out of bed and into the bathroom. She groaned when it was all over. Taking out the toothpaste and grabbing her toothbrush, she brushed her teeth and washed her face. She ran a quick brush through her hair and headed back to bed. She immediately found the bed empty. She headed downstairs, only to find Inuyasha cooking omlettes on the stove.
"'Bout time you woke up," Inuyasha said to her as she made her way to the table. Kagome sat down and sighed.
"This morning sickness thing is evil," Kagome groaned. Inuyasha put an omlette on her plate and put the pan he was using in the sink.
"You should eat. You didn't eat anything at all yesterday," Inuyasha replied, ignoring her statement. Kagome stared at her food.
"I didn't know you could cook." The silence that came after that was alarming.
"Well, neither did I, and we'll just see if it's good or not by telling if you're not dead by tomorrow." Inuyasha said. "Well, I'm going out. Sango called and said that she'll stay here with you so you won't do anything stupid." Inuyasha grabbed his car keys from the table that was next to the door. "See ya!" And with that, he disappeared from behind the door.
"See ya my ass..." Kagome muttered. She took a few bites of the omelette and hoped that he didn't slip any sleeping pills in it. There was a knock on the door and Kagome got up and answered it. There stood Sango, with a big grin on her face. "Good news?"
"Great. We're getting married at the end of this month. Since I have inherited my father's wealth, I don't need to have a job, especially when Miroku expects lots of kids," Sango informed Kagome as Kagome let her in. Sango took her shoes off and placed them by the door.
"Miroku left?"
"Yeah. Inuyasha left?"
"Yeah. You wanna go raid their stuff?"
"Yeah. Let's say it was the dog."
"What dog?"
&&
Inuyasha frantically searched around the jewelry stores, looking for a proposal ring. It had to be perfect. Miroku hummed casually behind him, looking at the glass cases.
"Where'd you get Sango's ring?" Inuyasha asked Miroku. Miroku shrugged slightly.
"A store not far from here." Miroku continued humming. He was in a jolly mood...
"Oh." Inuyasha's eyes caught a flash of diamonds. He did a double take and stared at the ring. It had a gold band, with a large diamond in the center. Small amber colored ones surrounded it, followed by even smaller diamonds. It glittered in the sunlight, and it practically glowed. It was beyond perfect. He asked a salesclerk how much it was and bought it. The salesclerk happily put it in a black velvet ring box and handed it to him after he paid for it.
"That ring was pretty expensive," Miroku commented. Inuyasha shrugged.
"It was worth it."
When the two entered the household of Inuyasha, they were met up with two very angry women. It seemed that the found out about something that wasn't supposed to be found out.
"Can I help you ladies?" Came Miroku's smart reply. Sango screamed.
"When we get home, Miroku, I am going to teach you the meaning of PAIN. Who the hell is Mizumi, HUH?" Miroku's smile faded quickly as Sango grabbed him and nearly threw him in their car. Inuyasha couldn't help but smirk, but it soon went away when Kagome slammed the door shut.
"Why didn't you tell me before that you went out with Kikyou AND Masami? God, I don't even know who Masami is, but I'm sure as hell I know who Kikyou is!" Kagome shouted. Inuyasha stood his ground.
"That was all the way in middle school!"
"Then why does this say that relationship lasted all the way until I entered the same high school as you?" Kagome shoved a piece of paper into his face. He grabbed it out of her hand and read it. It was an old letter from him to Kikyou, but he never delivered it. "Oh, come on Kagome! That was a long time ago!" He crumpled up the paper and took Kagome's hand. He gave it a small squeeze. "C'mon, Kagome. You know I dumped her for you!" Kagome's anger didn't falter.
"I didn't even know you back then! Well, maybe if you were stalking me!" Kagome gave him a shocked expression. "You didn't stalk me, did you?"
"No, you idiot! I'm not crazy!" Inuyasha said.
"Keep telling yourself that," Kagome muttered to herself. She pulled her hand out of Inuyasha's and went into the kitchen to start dinner. "Does raw ramen sound good?"
Inuyasha snorted. "No."
"Too bad." Kagome got out a pot and filled it with water. She turned on the stove and started to open the bags of ramen. The silence was eerie and harsh. "Who's Masami, by the way?"
"A moron?" Inuyasha said bluntly. He put his hand on the box that held the ring. He didn't feel like right now was the right time. 'When her anger dies down...' He thought.
After they had eaten dinner, Inuyasha didn't know what else to do. Kagome sat next to him, staring blankly at the TV screen. Her expression still looked a bit angry. They hadn't talked since.
"I'm sorry." Kagome said out of nowhere. Inuyasha looked at her as if she had just announced that she had grown another arm.
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry for snapping at you like that... It's just that Kikyou and I always get off with the wrong foot..." Kagome said. She really meant it. She didn't want to give Inuyasha the silent treatment anymore.
"S'okay. Look, Kagome-"
"No, I'm serious Inuyasha. I'm really sorry and-" Inuyasha put a finger over her lips.
"Shut up... and marry me." Inuyasha pulled out the box from his pocket and opened it to her. She gasped at the sight of it.
"Inuyasha, I-I don't know what to say!" Kagome blushed as he slipped the ring over her ring finger.
"Well, you're talking right now, aren't you?" Inuyasha mumbled. Kagome giggled.
"Yes... I'll marry you." She grinned as she leapt on Inuyasha, startling him, and planted her lips on his. He deepened the kiss, his tongue entering her mouth. She gave in and put her arms around his neck, bringing him even closer. Tears of joy silently fell down her cheeks as he lifted her up and carried her to the bedroom.

"Kagome! I'm so proud of you! Where do you plan on marrying him?" Mrs. Higurashi beamed at her daughter. Kagome smiled back at her.
"We plan on doing it near the Goshinboku tree, just because it has magical powers." Her mother laughed at that. Grandpa had always told stories about the sacred tree.
After Inuyasha's proposal and the very busy night, they decided to tell Kagome's mother first thing in the morning. They would eventually tell Sango and Miroku as well. Inuyasha was inside, trying to beat some sense into Souta in video games... but he didn't suceed.
"When is the marriage taking place?" Mrs. Higurashi went back to washing the dishes. Kagome sat herself down at the table. It was hardly two weeks and already she was having these tantrums and a weird want for weird things.
"I hope maybe when our baby is born," Kagome answered. Her mother nodded approval.
"Have you thought up a name yet? I have a few books if you want to borrow it," Her mother asked, rinsing off the last porcelain plate. Kagome shook her head.
"I want the name to be original, but thanks anyway," Kagome said. She got up and yawned. If it wasn't for the fact that she was so tired, she would have stayed longer. "We better get a move on. I can't keep Sango waiting." She went off to go find Inuyasha and they bid their goodbyes. As soon as they got in their car, Inuyasha drove off, heading toward's Miroku's house.
Sango had moved in with Miroku days ago, though it never occured to Kagome that the two had waited for so long. At first, seeing as Miroku was twenty years old and Sango was a few months older than her, she would have guessed that they were already living together since they were always seen either flirting or driving the other one to complete insanity.
Kagome let out a small snort. When Inuyasha and Miroku had left, leaving Sango and her free to go through their stuff in record time before they came back, Sango had informed her that she and Miroku were going to get married in a month. They had already arranged the invitations, the food, and of course, the outfits. Sango and Miroku was all set, especially when the two of them were very rich.
Inuyasha glanced over at Kagome. He didn't have much to say... which was awkward. (Or maybe it's because the author has a sudden case of writer's block...) He knew Naraku would be back... but he didn't know exactly when. In that time, Kagome would still be probably pregant... seeing as it takes at least nin or ten months for a baby to grow. Or maybe Naraku was waiting for the baby to be born so that he could kidnap the baby and make it one of his evil spawn or something like that. He wasn't sure what Naraku was up to, but he sure knew where to get some damn answers. Seeing as Sesshomaru had a connection to that certain Kagura woman, Inuyasha grew suspicious of what had conspired between his brother and that woman. Inuyasha shook the scary thoughts of what might of happened between them out of his head as he parked his car in front of Miroku's house.
Inuyasha stopped Kagome before she got out of the car and looked into her eyes. "When we step out of this car, there is a good chance that Sango would bombard you with questions and comments... and that's when we shoot them with these tranquilizer darts!" Inuyasha rumaged through his pockets as if looking for something. Kagome nearly choked while Inuyasha laughed.
"Inuyasha!"
"Look, woman, I'm just joking." Inuyasha held up his hands in a defensive manner. Kagome eyed his pockets suspiciously before stepping out of the car and up the front steps of the house. Inuyasha let out a chuckle before following her to the door.
Well, well, well. Sorry I didn't make Sango pregant in this chapter, but it'll come. Oh yes. And when that time comes, oh yes. I already picked out names and such. Hee-hee. What DID Sesshomaru and Kagura do? What is Naraku planning?! Will Sango bury Kagome in questions AND comments?! Will Inuyasha really shoot them with tranquiizer darts?! Am I going insane?! Apparantly, I am. Review and you get even LESS moldy cookies. :D
