Beside You Chapter 28
:Beside You:
"Are you sure that you are going to be ok?" Sango said in a worried tone as she watched Kagome who was sitting in front of her vanity mirror.
"Yes" Kagome said as she smiled as she recalled the memory that was making her friend run around like a chicken with its head cut off.
FlashBack: 3 1/2 months ago
"Kagome you know I love you right?" Inuyasha said as he watched Kagome nod her head in reply. " I don't want anything ever to come between us, Kagome, I don't know what I would do if you weren't in my life...but you have to know I don't want to be your boyfriend, anymore. Because if we break up I may never see you or Sakura again, and I don't know if I could live with that because I want you in my life forever, that why I wanted to ask you..." Inuyasha said as he got down on one knee and took out a little black box out of his pocket as Kagome's eyes widened.
"Kagome will you marry me?"
Kagome stood there stunned she didn't know what to say; she didn't know what to think, so she did just what her feelings were telling her to do.
"Yes" Kagome said a smile breaking out on her face as Inuyasha put the ring on her finger and kissed her, before embracing her tightly.
"I love you" Inuyasha whispered in her ear.
"I love you too." Kagome replied hugging him back tightly.
End Flashback
"Kagome...Kagoooommmeeee" Sango said waving a hand in front of the young girls face, bringing her out of her memory.
"What?" Kagome asked turing to Sango.
"Finally, you spaced out on me! I was worried." Sango cried
"I'm fine, I'm just thinking." Kagome said as she looked at herself in the mirror.
"Are you nervous?" Sango asked sitting on the stool next to Kagome.
"Of course I am nervous! I am getting married the day after TOMORROW!" Kagome said frantically.
"It's going to be okay though I know it is." Sango said cheerfully
"How can you say that! What if at the last minute he decides that he doesn't want to marry me? Or he calls off the wedding because he thinks that he is making a mistake?" Kagome replied
" Inuyasha would never do that to you, how could you even think that? He loves everything about you, and in more ways then one you changed him for the better. " Sango answered firmly.
"Thanks Sango that helps." Kagome said softly.
"Now that I think of it, he's not as much of an ass anymore." Sango joked as she and Kagome started laughing.
"But all-in-all I think everything will work out fine, lets just call it a best friends intuition." Sango told Kagome happily.
"I hope so." Kagome replied cautiously.
"It always does, but I got to go, I'm meeting Miroku at a cafe' in half an hour." Sango said looking at her watch.
"So are you two an item now?" Kagome asked suggestively.
"In that perverts dreams, bye." Sango said as she left.
"bye" Kagome called after her, before going down the stairs to the kitchen to get a glass of water. That was when she heard the front door open and close. "Kagome you here?" She heard Inuyasha call.
"Yea I'm in the kitchen!" Kagome answered back.
"Hey." Inuyasha said as he walked to Kagome and gave her a quick kiss.
"So are your parents coming to the wedding?" Kagome asked Inuyasha.
"Yea they are flying out tonight, they said that they have to come to my wedding because they already missed Sesshomaru's wedding and they weren't going to miss mine to." Inuyasha said with a soft smile gracing his face.
"I'm glad they're coming I know how much you wanted them to come." Kagome said
"I know, but I need to talk to you about something." Inuyasha said as he led Kagome over to the table to sit down.
"Ok, what's wrong?" Kagome said with fear clouding her eyes. 'Is he going to say that he doesn't want to get married anymore?' Kagome thought frantically.
"Kagome, I know that you really do not like your mother at all, but I think that you should invite her to the wedding or at least tell her you are getting married." Inuyasha stated seriously.
"No, I'm not talking to her I don't care what she thinks nor do I care if she knows that I'm getting married." Kagome said coldly as Inuyasha sighed.
"Come on Kagome, do this for me, I don't want you to go the rest of your life hating you mom. I know when she kicked you out it was wrong, but don't you think that by holding that grudge that you are just stooping down to her level?" Inuyasha asked.
"I'll send her a letter, is that good enough?" Kagome replied somewhat defeated.
"No..I think that you should go see her, tell her face to face that you are getting married and you wanted her to know, and you don't even need to say you wanted her to know just tell her that you are." Inuyasha said seriously.
"I don't want to see her again, it's too painful." Kagome answered softly.
"I'll come with you Kagome, but please do this for me?" Inuyasha said calmly.
"I don't want too, but as long as you come with me, I-I don't wa-want to go by myself." Kagome told Inuyasha in a shaky voice.
"Thank you." Inuyasha said as he pulled Kagome on to his lap held her.
"When do we have to go?" Kagome spoke as she rested her head on Inuyasha's shoulder.
"How about we go now, that way we can both get this over with, and I promise I won't let her hurt you mentally or physically." Inuyasha said.
"Alright we can go now." Kagome said defeat evident in her voice.
"We can take my car, I'll drive." Inuyasha replied as Kagome got off of his lap and headed to the door with him.
"Wait! Where's Sakura?" Kagome asked frantically.
"Oh she's with Rin and Sesshomaru. Rin wouldn't let me take Sakura because they were baking cookies." Inuyasha replied.
"Oh ok." Kagome said as she quickly grabbed her coat and headed out the door with Inuyasha.
Two hours later Inuyasha and Kagome arrived at her mothers house, The Higurashi Shrine. Parking below the steps they both got out of the car, as Inuyasha watched Kagome stare nervously at the stars.
"It's ok, I'm right here I won't let anything happen to you." Inuyasha said as he put his arm around her waist and walked up the many stairs with her.
Finally they reached the door, but just as Inuyasha was about to knock, Kagome stopped him.
"Kagome what's wrong?" Inuyasha asked as he tightened his grip on Kagome.
"I'm scared." Kagome whispered gently.
"It's ok, I'm right here." Inuyasha said as comforted Kagome, as he knocked twice on the door.
A second later a boy with brown hair, about the age of 13 answered the door and gasped.
"Ka-Ka-Kagome! Is that you?" the boy asked surprised.
"Yes it's me, hi Souta. I missed you" Kagome replied as she gave the boy a sad smile, while he hugged her.
"Oh Inuyasha I forgot to tell you, this is my little brother Souta." Kagome said quietly as Souta let go of her.
"Who is that." Souta asked gesturing to Inuyasha.
"This is Inuyasha, I will tell you more later but now I need to talk to mom, is she here" Kagome asked.
"Yea she's in the kitchen washing dishes, I'll go get her." Souta replied as he dashed off into the kitchen.
"How come you didn't tell me you had a little brother?" Inuyasha asked
"I didn't want to think about any of this, I tried to forget." Kagome said sadly.
"Alright" Inuyasha said as they stood by the door waiting for Kagome's mother to come. After a small crash of something plastic being dropped, Kagome's mother approached them both from the kitchen.
"Hello Kagome, what are you doing here." Her mother greeted coldly as Inuyasha wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist tightly.
"I came here to tell you that I am getting married the day after tomorrow and I didn't come here to receive your blessing, and no matter what you say to me or what you try to do I'm going to go through with this no matter what." Kagome stated boldly while Kagome's mother looked at her in shock.
"Is that so..." Kagome's mother trailed off.
"Yes" Kagome answered fiercely
"If I recall correctly Kagome, it does matter if I approve your marriage or not because the law states that, a person who is under 20 years of age cannot get married in Japan without a parent's approval. " Kagome's mother stated snidely.
Kagome's eyes widened in fear at hearing this 'No this can't happen..' Kagome thought fearfully. As if sensing her fear Inuyasha calmly said.
" I may not understand completely why you still hold a grudge against your daughter, but let me say that you may not realize this but it took a lot of courage for Kagome to come here and tell you this and we are even offering to let you and Souta come to the wedding. But it is childish to hold such a grudge for one mistake which gave YOU a granddaughter and Kagome a daughter, and even knowing exactly what happened I still love Kagome regardless of her child or her flaws." Inuyasha said coldly.
"Inu..." Kagome started but Inuyasha cut her off.
"No it's okay Kagome...you don't have to say anything." Inuyasha said to her softly as he watched Kagome's mother.
"I see that you have found someone who cares for you Kagome, I shall approve of your marriage, on two conditions." Kagome's mother said a small smile gracing her face.
"What are they?" Kagome asked almost in a harsh whisper.
"I want you to forgive me for what I put you through, and the other one is I want to see my granddaughter." Kagome's mother said happily.
"I can not forgive you right away." Kagome said as she watched the smile disappear from her mothers face. "But I can try." Kagome added quickly.
"Thank you that is all I ask." Kagome's mother said giving Kagome and Inuyasha a half smile.
"Will you and Souta come to the wedding?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, it's short notice, but of course." Kagome's mother answered.
"Thank You." Inuyasha said happily.
Two Days Later: The Wedding
The church was decorated with beautiful flowers of every color, shape, and size. People were quickly finding their seats waiting for the ceremony to begin. Inuyasha took his place next to the priest as the music began to play as Sakura walked down the aisle tossing flowers, she dressed in a light pink dress that was decorated with little white and red flowers, with a small flower headband.
Kagome then walked into the room. Her wedding dress was a white off the shoulder dress with a silvery vine pattern at the bottom of the dress. The top half was decorated with small white glitter beads, and Kagome also wore her hair up with two strands down near her face. Her hair was held up by a headband that connected to the vail. 'She's so beautiful.' Inuyasha thought as he saw his father lead Kagome down the aisle. (It was decided that Inutaisho would lead Kagome down the aisle since her father was deceased.)
Finally Kagome had reached the front of the church and turned to Inuyasha as the priest began the ceremony.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here to join together this woman and this man in holy matrimony which is an honorable estate. If anyone should show just cause, why they may not be joined together in holy matrimony, speak now, or forever hold your peace. " The priest started before glancing at Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, will you take Kagome to be your wedded wife. To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness or in health, to love and to cherish 'till death do you part?" The priest questioned
"I do" Inuyasha replied looking at Kagome intently.
"And Kagome, will you take Inuyasha to be your wedded husband. To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, 'till death do you part. " The priests questioned
"I do" Kagome said as a smile covered her face.
"Then by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
You may now kiss the bride." The priest declared as Inuyasha lifted Kagome's wedding vail and kissed her causing everyone to break out in applause and cheer.
"I love you." Inuyasha whispered against Kagome's lips.
"I love you too." Kagome answered smiling.
"Now no one can tare us apart, and I'll be beside you forever." Inuyasha said kissing Kagome one more time before they headed down the aisle.
