REI'S CORNER: (sniffling with a handkerchief.) Alas my friends, we have reached the final chapter!

I would like to thank my reviewers, my ex-boyfriends, my CURRENT boyfriend, who indeed is a piece of work that I shall try to hang on to until the end of forever (heehee if I could blush I would SO do it after saying that!) If you know me personally, you better not tell him that I said that! Cough. Ahem. I would also like to thank, Sora from Kingdom Hearts, Inuyasha from well Inuyasha, and my bestest bud Ron (.) Why? Because I want to thank them.

FINAL disclaimer: I don't own the characters Ms. Takahashi, and I thank you for letting me lend them. This story has been SWEET. I like it way better than Walk Behind me. Hence, why I have been neglecting it. Nanner! But I guess I have to finish it now... anyways.

Here We Go With the final chapter!

The FINAL Chapter, Chapter 24- My Heart Pounds

Everyone in the room was silent for a long time.

Sesshomaru had sweat on his brow. The outfit that he had chosen to wear earlier that day probably wasn't the best choice. It rubbed him in the wrong way. Literally.

But, that's not the right thing to be thinking right now. He had to do the right thing.

He had to support Inuyasha.

Hell, that was all that he COULD do at this point in time.

But he'd rather be at home, spending time with Rin.

He looked around at the other people in the room, hoping they wouldn't notice his lack of comfort. Oh well, no use showing it around, it was just that time exactly. Here it comes.

There was music. And the lady in the front aisle was crying. Sesshomaru assumed it to be Kagome's mother. Ugh, that god-awful music! He hoped that this would all be over soon.

He looked over at Inuyasha, he didn't look right in that suit. Inuyasha's face looked tired, and he had no expression on his face except every now and then he would turn and look at the door impatiently. Obviously Sesshomaru wasn't the only one who wanted this to hurry up and be over with.

Out of nowhere, someone's little girl came a-walk-in down the aisle.

Sesshomaru looked down at his dress shoes. Mrs. Higurashi's sobbing was starting to get louder.

He hoped that he remembered to lock the car.

Oh look, someone's little boy comes running straight at him. Where are these kids' parents?

He looked at his wrist. Damn, he forgot his watch.

Well here comes that Ayame girl, walking with Koga. Not far behind them was some dark haired chick and a man with a glove over his hand. Did people actually still do that? The 80s are so over.

As the music began to crescendo, Inuyasha started to get antsy.

Sesshomaru sighed. 'Come on. Come on. This is taking forever.'

Finally, the doors opened.

And in walked the pretty lady in white.

Everyone gasped, well everyone except for Inuyasha, who simply smiled.

Mrs. Higurashi's sobs softened a bit. As her daughter walked down the aisle.

What a marvel. Kagome was beautiful in her dress. Even Sesshomaru had to say so himself.

As Kagome walked down the aisle, she looked at all of the surprised faces and blushed. Sure the dress was expensive, and her mom insisted on paying for it after the accident, but did they all have to stare?

She smiled at random people and continued her journey up the aisle.

She caught the eye of Sesshomaru and smiled even more. She loved that man. Platonically of course. She owed that man, that doctor, that angel her life.

Letting her gaze travel to her promised man, she felt a spark in her heart. At first, she might have given up, and died after the operation that Sesshomaru performed. It would have been easy. But there was Inuyasha. He was there when she woke up, and he made her promise that she wouldn't leave him like that again.

And he was there every step of the way that she took to get to recovery. It only took her a blazing two years before she could get back to her normal life. Sesshomaru was surprised, and said that he would've estimated it took her at least three, but she knew that Inuyasha helped her through it all. The day that she stood at the counter of the hospital, signing out her papers to go home the receptionist looked up at her and smiled. She asked Kagome what she wanted to do first when she got home.

Kagome's reply was that she wasn't going to go home. She was going to go dancing at the club for two days straight. Everyone around her laughed.

She was indeed lucky. And she loved every minute of that. She kept her eyes on Inuyasha, smiling as she finally made it to the alter. The priest smiled at her and opened his book, beginning the ceremony.

Kagome started zoning out, watching Inuyasha. They grabbed hands, and he squeezed hers in excitement. She squeezed back happily.

"...And if anyone should have a reason why these two should not be wed, let them speak now or forever hold their peace." The priest paused.

Koga raised his arm eagerly and shouted, "Actually, there is something that I would like to say!"

Kagome and Inuyasha started panicking.

Koga looks at them and starts laughing, "Gotcha!" he yelled.

Inuyasha at that point wanted to smash his brains in. It wasn't funny. But he laughed.

Everyone laughed.

Everyone except for Mrs. Higurashi, Sesshomaru, and a few other people.

And then the ceremony continued on as the couple looked to tying the knot.

Inuyasha and Kagome sat in the limousine that was rented for the wedding. He grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into an tight embrace, kissing her on the lips gently.

"I love you." Inuyasha said.

"I love you too, but..."

"What?" he asked.

Kagome shrugged out of his hold and smiled. "We're here."

"Here?"

"Love Hurts." she sighed.

"Oh so you just can't be a normal person and have a normal reception?"

Kagome laughed. "Yeah right, race you inside!" she yelled before jumping out of the still-slightly-moving car and ran into the club to change into her reception dress and get on the dance floor.

Inuyasha sighed happily.

"So it's happily ever after from here, right?" the driver asked.

Inuyasha smiled.

"I doubt it. We just found out last week that she's pregnant and I bet I'm never going to hear the end of, 'You did this, so stand up like a man and take responsibility!' And she's not even showing yet."

The driver laughed as Inuyasha got out of the car.
