This is chapter 10 guys. I know you liked the last few chapters that I posted on there. I know you did! Thank you all. It makes me feel all tingly inside. But anyways, sorry I haven't been putting up more chapters. Actually, I've been watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire all week. And guess why! Simply because, my boyfriend Rupert Grunt is in that movie. And the twins who play his brothers. They got extra hot over the years. But enough about my vacation. Let's get to the story. All right! Chapter 10! WOOT WOOT! P.S. Kikyo's in this chapter, for all of you who were wondering where she went. For a couple of chapters, she just disappeared into thin air.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Where would you like to be seated youngest Takahashi?" asked the waiter at the restaurant. Inuyasha let out a low growl.
"How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that?" he said angrily. The butler bowed.
"My apologies. Now, if you'll just follow me this way, I'll choose a table for you." He said leading Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku, and Sango to their table. Kagome laced her fingers with Inuyasha's as they walked.
"Try and control your anger, Inuyasha." She whispered. Inuyasha snorted.
"Feh. Why should I? I'm tired of always being treated like a kid by the whole city of Kyoto." He whispered back. Kagome smiled.
"Well, obviously you need to be treated like a child. You're acting like one right now. Now calm down and quit being so naughty or you'll get a spanking when we get home." She said. Inuyasha was the one smiling this time.
"Really? Maybe I should act up a lot more then." He said. Kagome rolled her eyes and continued walking.
"Here is your table Mr. Takahashi." Said the butler. Inuyasha dismissed him and pulled a chair out for Kagome and then sat in his own chair. Miroku pulled out a seat for Sango, but pulled it back when Sango was nearly seated, causing her to fall onto the floor. He let out a loud and obnoxious laugh that was quickly silenced by Sango's fist. Kagome and Inuyasha smiled.
"Hopefully, you guys know that we're not here to eat right?" Kagome asked. Sango gave her a confused look.
"We're not? I thought we were going to eat." She said. Inuyasha shook his head.
"I signed us all up for wine tasting. Just a small cup and that's it. They aren't very strong wines so you can't get drunk." Inuyasha said.
Sango nodded. "Fine. It's still nice of you to bring us here, Inuyasha. Thanks. And that's a thanks for both me and Miroku." Sango said, looking down at her unconscious boyfriend.
"No problem, Sango. It was my pleasure because, I have something very special planned." Inuyasha said. Kagome looked up at him.
"Like what?" she asked. Inuyasha smirked mischievously.
"You'll just have to wait and see." He said. A waiter arrived with a tray of cups. Another waiter arrived with a tray full of wine bottles, followed by two more waiters.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
After about two hours of tasting wine, Inuyasha stood and smiled down at Kagome. Miroku had awoken from his coma about an hour ago and Sango was watching Inuyasha's every move.
"Kagome." He started. "I know that we've only been with eachother for some months, but I feel like we've been together forever."
Kagome nodded. "I do too, Inuyasha." She said.
"I don't think that everyone knows how we truly feel about eachother. I love you, Kagome."
"And I love you, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha slowly kneeled on his right knee and took Kagome's hands in his. Kagome's eyes widened.
"That's why I wanted to ask, Kagome Higurashi, will you marry me?" Inuyasha asked. Sango's mouth dropped to the floor.
Kagome was speechless. She took a deep breath and shook her head.
"No." she said. Sango fell out of her seat this time. Inuyasha was in shock.
"But I thought, you said. Why not?" Inuyasha rambled. Miroku watched in confusion. Kagome kept on a serious face.
"Did you really think I meant no? I was just kidding, Inuyasha. Of course I'll marry you!" She shrieked, as she fell into Inuyasha's arms. By this time, Miroku and Sango were holding eachother and crying.
Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Kagome and laughed. Kagome pulled back and looked into Inuyasha's deep amber eyes. Inuyasha smiled as did Kagome. Their faces moved closer to one another's. Kagome's lips met Inuyasha's and they shared a deep kiss.
Sango looked at Miroku in tears. "Damn you Miroku." She said sniffling. Miroku raised an eyebrow.
"What? What did I do now?" he asked, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"Why didn't you ever ask me to marry you?" Sango asked. Miroku shrugged.
"If I did, would you have said yes?"
Sango shook her head. "Probably not." She hugged Miroku tightly.
Inuyasha broke the kiss and grabbed Kagome's left hand. He took his other hand and dug around in his pockets. After awhile, he pulled out a silver ring with a beautiful diamond on top. He slowly placed it on Kagome's ring finger of her left hand. Kagome was now crying. She smiled as Inuyasha kissed her again.
The restaurant was clapping for them.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Inuyasha pulled into the parking lot of his house after dropping off Miroku and Sango who were still crying waterworks. He got out of his car and went around, to open the door for Kagome. Once he opened the door, he took Kagome's hand and helped her out. They began walking to the door.
"I can't believe we're engaged. I can't wait until my mom gets home so I can tell her." Kagome said happily. Inuyasha nodded.
"First, you have to tell your other mom." He said.
"What other mom?" Kagome asked. "Oh. You mean Izayoi. I can tell her."
Inuyasha smiled and opened the door to the house.
"Mom! Can you come here for a second?" Inuyasha called. Izayoi appeared a couple of minutes later, followed by Inutaisho.
"Well, I just wanted you both to know that Kagome and I are engaged. Don't worry. We're gonna wait until we're out of school next year until we get married." Inuyasha explained.
Izayoi and Inutaisho stood in silence but Izayoi was the one to break it.
"I'm happy for you both. I really am. But why wait until you get out of school to get married? You can get married this year. We'll help you two with the wedding and outfits." She said. Inutaisho nodded. Kagome smiled and threw herself into Izayoi and Inutaisho's arms.
"Thank you so much, Izayoi. You too, Inutaisho. I mean, Mom and Dad." Kagome said.
"Yah. Thanks, Mom. Thanks, Dad. We appreciate it." Inuyasha said smiling down at his fiancé.
"Inuyasha. I'm so excited." Kagome shrieked like a little girl. She flung herself into Inuyasha's arms this time. Inuyasha's smile grew wider. He picked Kagome up bridal style.
"Okay. I'm gonna put the little baby to bed. Night." He said heading for the stairs. Izayoi and Inutaisho smiled as they watched their children leave.
"You help Inuyasha and I'll help Kagome." Izayoi said. Inutaisho nodded.
"To be honest, they caught me way off guard with that little surprise. I thought you would be truly surprised also." Inutaisho said. Izayoi shook her head.
"Not at all. To be honest, I helped Inuyasha pick out the ring to give to Kagome." She whispered.
"What? And you didn't tell me?" Inutaisho whispered back. Izayoi shook her head and walked away.
"He told me not to." She yelled as she disappeared around the corner.
.:Upstairs with Kagome and Inuyasha:.
"Kagome." Inuyasha whispered as he laid her gently down on his bed.
"Inuyasha." Kagome whispered back. Inuyasha laid down in the bed next to her.
"I'm glad that you accepted my proposal." Inuyasha said.
"I'm glad that you proposed." Kagome said back.
"Tomorrow at lunch, we can start planning the wedding with Sango and Miroku. Maybe even in the classes that we have together." He suggested.
"That's a good idea. We'll start planning tomorrow. For now, let's get some sleep. We've had an exhausting night." Kagome said. Placed her lips to Inuyasha's and closed her eyes. She was soon asleep. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around Kagome and pulled her sleepy body closer to his. He rested his chin in the crook her neck and also fell asleep.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Inuyasha awoke to the sound of Kagome rustling around in her closet.
"What're you doing, Kags?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome looked out of her closet and smiled.
"I'm sorry, Yash. I didn't mean to wake you up. I was just trying to find something to wear to school today." Kagome explained. She came out of the closet with a tight blue corset on and a small white jacket on. She also wore a pair of white capris and blue flip flops. Her hair was up in a curly ponytail with a couple of strands hanging down he sides of her face.
"Does this say, 'Hey. I'm gonna be the wife of Inuyasha Takahashi, so back the hell off, Kikyo?'" she asked. Inuyasha shook his head.
"No. But it says, 'Future wife of Inuyasha Takahashi, get in the bed so we can have a little fun.'" Inuyasha joked. Kagome smiled.
"Not this morning, Inuyasha. Get ready for school." Kagome ordered.
"Yes, Mom." Inuyasha whined. He stretched his arms out and yawned. His ears pressed back on his head and his fangs were clearly visible. Kagome smiled and leaned against the wall inside of her closet.
"He's so damn hot." She whispered.
"Thanks. I try." Inuyasha called from his bed. Kagome's eyes widened and she blushed.
"What the hell?" she whispered again.
"Dog ears!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Just get dressed!" Kagome yelled. Inuyasha smiled and slid out of his bed. He made his way to his closet and began digging around in his closet. A few minutes later, Inuyasha emerged from his closet. He wore a blue and white polo shirt and a pair of khaki shorts. His hair was tied back in a tight ponytail and he had on white high top Nike shoes.
"You look good, Inuyasha." Kagome said. She opened the door to Inuyasha's room and left. Inuyasha shrugged and followed.
Kagome waited downstairs by the front door for Inuyasha. Inuyasha came downstairs and grabbed his car keys off of the key holder.
"Bye Mom. Bye Dad." He yelled before he opened the door for Kagome and himself.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Inuyasha pulled into the school parking lot and got out of his car. Kagome got out from her side and walked over to Inuyasha. She smiled up at him and took his hand.
"Are you ready, Mr. Takahashi?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha nodded.
"Are you ready, Mrs. Takahashi?" he asked. Kagome nodded and they both made their way into the school.
"Kagome! Inuyasha!" yelled Sango. She was running towards them with a worried expression on her face.
"What's wrong, Sango?" Inuyasha asked. Sango took a deep breath.
"Kikyo and her clay pot looking friends are planning to break you and Kagome up. They're mostly out for Kagome, though. So Kagome, watch your back. When class in over, wait for me, Miroku, or Inuyasha. Got it?" Sango said. Kagome nodded.
"You're making something out of nothing, Sango. But just in case, I'll do it." Kagome said.
"Let's go to class. It's a good thing I'm in there with you." Inuyasha said. Kagome smiled and began walking to class with her fiancé. (AN- I can never get enough of saying that word!)
Kagome entered the classroom with Inuyasha by her side. Kikyo let out a loud cough when they walked in. Kagome looked up at her a smirked.
"Kagome, why didn't you tell me that the family had left? And that we were supposed to be staying with Inuyasha?" Kikyo yelled.
"First of all, Kikyo, I was supposed to stay with Inuyasha. Not you. Plus, you would've known, but remember when I whooped your ass at school that day? You ran to Rina and Rika's house with your tail between your fat legs." Kagome explained. Inuyasha let out a loud snort and the rest of the class laughed quietly. Kikyo scowled.
"I don't know why you get to stay at Inuyasha's house while I'm stuck with Rina and Rika." She shouted. Kagome smiled. She had her blowing a fuse in less than five minutes.
"Simply because, he loves me Kikyo." Kagome said. Kikyo's face was getting redder and redder by the second.
"He doesn't love you! He doesn't want you, Kagome!" she yelled.
"Really Kikyo? I think he does." Kagome said holding up her left hand and showing off the engagement ring sitting on her ring finger. Kikyo gasped as well as the class.
"You're engaged to him?" Kikyo asked. Kagome nodded. Kikyo looked to Inuyasha.
"Are you really engaged to Kagome?" she asked in a fake sad tone. Inuyasha nodded. And that was the queue for the whole class to bombard them with questions.
"Can we come to your wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Takahashi?" asked a couple of people.
"What kind of dress are you going to wear?" asked a few other girls. Kagome laughed.
"Score. You landed one of the hottest girls in the school." Said a couple of guys.
"Man, now you're locked. You have Kagome and only Kagome." Said a few other boys. Inuyasha smiled and pulled Kagome to him.
"That's all I need." He said. The class awed at the cuteness of them being together.
Kagome pulled away from Inuyasha and pushed through the crowd of her fellow classmates to get to her sister.
"Kikyo. You're still invited to the wedding." Kagome said. Kikyo looked up at her.
"It still doesn't mean that I won't do anything to stop you." she threatened. Kagome smiled and nodded.
"I wouldn't have it any other way." She said. She pushed a strand of Kikyo's hair out of her face.
"I'll give you an invitation when they're ready." Kagome said. Kikyo nodded as Kagome pushed her way through the crowd again. She grabbed Inuyasha's hand pulled him out of the crowd with her.
"I think it's best if we just go home. It'll be quiet and we can plan the wedding there." Kagome suggested. Inuyasha nodded.
"That's a good idea." Inuyasha said. He held onto Kagome's hand tightly as they ran down the halls and to their car.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Kagome opened the door to Inuyasha's house only to be tackled by a little silver haired boy.
"Auntie Kagome!" yelled the boy. Kagome looked down at him.
"Hi Sasame!" she squealed. She bent down and picked him up.
"Your daddy's here, Sasame?" Inuyasha asked. Sasame shook his head, sending his little silver bangs flying. Kagome smiled and walked inside the house, Inuyasha not far behind.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I know it's kind of a weird place to stop but I got kinda brain dead at this point. I can feel my brain melting. Also, I've noticed that I've gotten a little side tracked. So, I'll fix that. Anyways, I love this chapter! Inu and Kags are engaged! WOO HOO! I told you guys that I had a big surprise for you! YAY! Read and Review. Also, I'm working on another story. Here's the little preview.
.:When the Darkness Meets the Light:.
Kagome is the princess of the fairy world. She is waited on hand and foot in her castle. Most girls of the fairy world would sell their family to be in Kagome's wings, but Kagome doesn't think that this life is suited for her. She'd prefer to just be a regular person. She'd prefer to be a human. Inuyasha is the prince of the vampire world. He has maids and butlers at his side almost everywhere he goes. Most boys would stab themselves in the heart with a wooden stake to be in his fangs, but Inuyasha hates his life as a vampire. He'd rather be human than be down in the dark with his kingdom.
There you go!
