Inu 16

A week later, Kagome was double checking everything. She wanted her wedding to be perfect. She called Sango, and Sango had everything planned for her hen night. She checked with the caterers, the flower company and the group she had booked for her wedding. 'Alright! Everything is go! But then why do I feel that something's wrong… Nothing's wrong. I checked and double checked. Why is something missing?' Then the phone rang.

"Hello Kagome!"

"Hi Sango! How's everything?"

"It's great! Okay so in five days it's your hen night, then we're heading back to my place. So don't forget to say your good-bye's to Kouga. It'll be the last time you see him as your boyfriend!"

"Okay Sango. Say do you want to come over and hang out?"

"Sorry Kagome, I can't."

"That's okay. I mean now that I'm on maternity leave I have nothing to do! So I think I may just watch some soaps or something."

"Alrighty but take it easy, I don't want my future God child to be stressed due to the fact, that one of soap actors is having a divorce." They both burst into giggles at Sango's antics.

"Bye Sango."

"Talk to you later Kagome."

"The Wolf can't do anything right! I wonder if he knows that his fiancée is breaking the spell? If he can't remedy the situation, I may have to take matters into my own hands…"

Inuyasha was sitting in his office moping about as he has taken to doing lately. 'I miss Kagome so much. I hope she'll realize that I love her…' He was brought out of his musing by his cell phone ringing.

"Hello?" he asked in a gruff voice.

"INUYASHA!" He quickly jerked the phone away from his ear.

"What do you want Ayame?"

"I got the invitation! So you better get ready! We're going to a wedding in a week!"

"Uh… Okay, what should I wear?"

"Something semi-formal. I'm going to be a bride's maid. So you will have to dress yourself?"

"Okay thanks Ayame, where will it be and what time?"

"It's going to be at that cathedral downtown. But I'll pick you up so don't worry about that. And you'd better be ready at 3:30 sharp! Or I'm leaving without you!"

Inuyasha laughed. "Okay Ayame. Oh and Ayame? Thanks for everything."

"Hey I'm just doing this so Kouga can be mine!" She let out a laugh. "And for you and Kagome of course, you two were so cute!"

"Bye Ayame."

He hung up the phone and a smile graced his lips. 'Now what to wear?'

Sango and Kagome had just caught a taxi back to Sango's apartment. Sango was heavily intoxicated. Kagome had been drinking non-alcoholic drinks all night, and was trying to carry Sango into her room. Kagome dropped Sango onto her bed and was quickly greeted by very loud snores. Kagome laughed and walked into the bathroom to clean her make up off. She couldn't believe Sango had rented out a strip club just for her. Though she did admit that most of those men, were rather charming once you got used to them being naked… Kagome looked in the mirror at her stomach it was growing bigger every day.

"I'd better still fit into my wedding dress", she scolded her stomach, then made her way to Sango guest room. Took off her clothes and crawled into bed. And boy was she surprised when she felt an arm encircle her waist and a voice whisper in her ear. She jumped up screamed and turned on the light. There lying in bed was: Miroku. She quickly grabbed the top blanket and did her best to cover herself.

"Miroku! What the hell are you doing here!" she hissed, very annoyed that he was in her bed.

"Kagome, please let me explain!"

"Keep your voice down Miroku! Now I'm waiting and it has better be good. Or else Sango is going to hear a lot of stuff."

"Okay, okay Kagome. Jeeze don't use all that blackmail you have on me. Well you see, I thought Sango would offer you her bed, and then she'd sleep in here." He said with a nervous smile.

"Well ever since Sango moved out, she's offered me this room here. So this was what she considered my room. And how the hell did you get a key for it?"

"Well remember those days when I was a kleptomaniac?"

"Yes…"

"I still have those skills…"

"Miroku! If you leave now I won't tell Sango any of this. Come back later today at around 3 or 4. Hopefully she'll be up and most of her hangover will be gone."

"Okay Kagome, oh and Kagome? Thanks for being my friend when I need you."

"No problem, now get out of here so I can get some sleep."

Miroku threw the covers off and stood up.

"EEEEEEEEEEEKKKK! YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU WERE NAKED!"

The Day of the Wedding

Sango shook Kagome, "Come on Kagome. You gotta wake up or else you'll be late."

"Sango… what do you mean I'll be late?"

"Today's your wedding silly. And if you want to keep to schedule you have to get up now!" Sango ripped the blankets off of her friend and giggled at the look on Kagome's face.

Sango was in charge of making sure everything ran smoothly. So she called the other bride's maids and made sure they were up and on their way over to Sango's.

After Kagome was showered and dressed in sweat pants and a sweater, Ayame and Yura showed up. Yura was one of Kagome's friends from high school but they hadn't talked much lately. Kouga had asked Ayame and Yura to be brides maids for Kagome.

They all had Yura do their hair and nails since Yura is going to school to become an aesthetician. This took up most of the day. Kagome had her nails done a white colour to match her dress and the rest of the bride's maids a soft yellow to match their dresses.

Kagome's hair was done up in an elegant bun at the back of her head. While the bride maid's had their hair down and slightly curled. When they were finally ready they headed off to the cathedral. Ayame drove her own car; she had to pick up the dresses and Inuyasha.

She grabbed the dresses and ran to Inuyasha condo and buzzed him down. When he walked out the door it made Ayame consider for only a moment, forgetting about Kouga. He was dressed in a black suit with a red shirt and black tie. His hair was pulled back in a tight braid. Ayame quickly closed her jaw.

"Hurry up or we'll be late!"

At the church the bride's maids were putting on their dresses and Yura was fixing make up. Kagome had some black eyeliner and silvery eye shadow, and sparkles in her hair, and then the veil was placed on top. The bride's maids and everyone else were lined up and ready to go. Inuyasha was sitting on the bride's side, anxiously waiting. When Kouga took his place at the front of the altar, he noticed Inuyasha and was having trouble keeping a smile on his face.

The music started and the first two to walk down the aisle were Sango and Miroku. Miroku was beaming brightly because Kagome had told Sango she'd better not slap him prior to the wedding. Next were Ayame and Hakkaku, then Yura and Ginta. Then came the 'Here comes the bride' music. Everyone stood up and looked back. Kagome walked down the aisle each step slowly, carefully measured. It almost looked as though she was hesitant, though when she saw the silver hair, her heart skipped a beat. She almost considered running to him. Then she walked up to the altar and joined hands with Kouga, together they faced the priest and he began the ceremony.

Inuyasha stared blankly ahead when he heard the famous line "Now does anyone oppose this marriage? Speak now or forever hold your peace."

"I object!" Inuyasha said standing up.

Kagome was livid. How dare someone ruin her wedding, she looked up at the ceiling. Then she saw a bowl shape. Then all of her memories came floating back. Since Inuyasha saw her look away and not look back, he figured she had rejected him. He turned away, letting a few tears stray down his cheeks. Kagome was having a major flashback. Everything was coming back, the coffee shop, the condo, and more vivid than anything was Inuyasha kissing her the first time and how it just felt so, right.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled. She dropped her bouquet and as she began to step off of the altar, a purple miasma began to fill the cathedral.

"Kagome!" Kouga and Inuyasha's voices were both searching for her. A deep evil laugh filled the cathedral.

"Kouga, you were unable to keep her under control. Our deal is broken. Kagome is mine!" the voice hissed and Kouga instantly knew it was Naraku. 'I should have known better.' Kouga thought while tears silently poured down his cheeks. Inuyasha was positively livid. How dare Kouga make a deal with Naraku that got Kagome stolen from him! Inuyasha was determined that Kouga was going to pay. Then this Naraku guy, no matter who he is, would pay in blood.

A/N finally finished it. It's been plaguing me for awhile now. And just when I thought I'd have a nice happy ending, but no! My sadistic brain decided to throw in another twist. But hopefully all of you Inu/Kag fans will rejoice! See at least I threw that bit in at the end! I'm not so bad. Now since I have a bit of an action part here, I'll get right on the new chapter, but school is a lot of work this year, but I will update, promise!
