Free of Restrictions

Epilogue

"Where the hell is she!"

Kouga growled angrily as he paced by the baggage claim. He glanced back at the flight schedule, and indeed, her flight had landed. "Where is she! First of all, I didn't even give her permission to leave! Second, she said this trip only lasted a few weeks!"

He spotted someone with brown hair that he recognized from Kagome's office coming in his direction and growled. He stormed over and was slightly surprised when she gave him a small smile.

"Kouga, right? Hey, Kagome asked me to give this to you before we took off. Sorry!" she said quickly, putting a folded up piece of paper in his hand. He blinked at her, taking the piece of paper.

"What do you mean, 'sorry'?" he called after her, as she ran off of join a short haired man a few yards away. She merely waved in his general direction. Slightly miffed, he turned his attention to the note in his hand. Unfolding it, he read its contents.

What happens in Vegas is just between us

Ain't nobody's business what anyone does

You can let down your hair

Be as wild as you dare

Go crazy, do something outrageous

But what happens in Vegas

Stays in Vegas.

Kouga-

Lets face it. Things were not working out. I wasn't happy, you weren't happy, and we both know its time to move on. Find someone new who can make you happier. I know I have.

-Kagome.

"InuYasha, its so hot here! How can you stand it?"

He smirked at her. "Kagome, this is Texas. What did you expect? It's a desert. Kinda. What, still too used to humidity? You just spent a week in VEGAS, you dope."

She glared at him playfully. "Shut up you. DRIVE."

"Yes ma'am."

She giggled, leaning her head on his shoulder. "So how long till we get to your house?"

"Not for a few hours. We're gonna stop by my parent's house first."

She blinked. "You parents?"

He glanced at her playfully. "Yeah, you know, the people brought me into the world, the ones who raised me? Don't you have parents?"

She smacked his arm. "I know what parents are, you dummy, but I'm going to meet them! When were you planning on telling me this!"

"I just did."

She let out a frustrated growl, making him laugh. She pouted for a minute, before he leaned over and placed a kiss on her cheek.

"And I guess now isn't the time to tell you that we're having dinner tonight with them and my grandparents tonight."

Her only reply was a frustrated shriek as she began pounding on his back.

"Hey, Hey! If you kill me now, the car crashes and you end up wandering in the heat to be eaten by vultures!"

"InuYasha, you git! You need to TELL me what your plans are, NOW!"

He smiled, and she glared at him.

"Well, if you insist. I'm planning on introducing you to my family. I'm planning to date you for several months. And I also believe I'm planning to propose to you after you get enrolled back into college…and we're sure that ex of yours isn't going to come after…and after Sango and Miroku get married too."

She stared at him dumbstruck.

"Oh, um…..ok."

AN: Well. Finally put it up. Wow. My first chapter story-done! dances Well, Here you are! Also, someone brought up the subject of the Las Vegas activities (or lack thereof) in this story. There are two reasons for this.

1-This story is about the developing of a relationship, not about what activities they do there.

2-I've never been to Vegas! Ha! Yesh, never been to Vegas. I've stopped at a gas station there, and met my aunt at a McDonalds there once. And I've driven on the freeway there on my way to Camarillo….but nope. Never even been shopping there. But I do know the names of the hotel/resorts! They're sooooo cool!

3-(ok, so I can't count) There's a lot of things in Las Vegas that I didn't want involved in this story. I mean, come on, Las Vegas is the city of sins, and I didn't want that in here. This is about Kagome and InuYasha, and that's all.
