Chapter 9: Compare and Contrast

Kagome stayed quiet as the priest carried on with the ceremony

She, from the corner of her eye, stared at her future husband

His long dark hair was put up in a pony tail; although it was very common…that was the new style nowadays, the pony tail…everybody wore it…so Kagome was not surprised…half of the guests were wearing the pony-tail, but the girls (of course) had their hair in a fancy type of pony-tail…but Kagome could only smile as she thought of the only two people who didn't like their hair any other way than loose…one of them was sitting in this very church…and the other…

Kagome shook her head of the thoughts…she shook it off before his picture would flash before her eyes…as it always does when she thinks about him

Her future-husband was handsome…she knew that for a fact…all of her friends commented on how attractive he was…how good they looked together…

But they had said the same thing about someone else…no…they reacted to him differently…her friends liked her groom…but they had loved the other…they thought her and him to be the best…not just good…the best…

Kagome tried…but it was too late…his silver hair, containing highlights of different shades of blue, white, and silver…his gorgeous amber eyes, that would catch her attention at one glance, the ones that could read her every emotion (and vice-versa), the ones that she melted into every time willingly…that cocky smirk of his, the one that got her to blush every time…his rough looking yet soft lips, the pair of lips that devoured her whenever she would allow it…

'What the heck is wrong with me…I shouldn't be thinking about this…I'm about to be married for gods sakes!...but why oh why won't he get out of my head!' these were the thoughts of a troubled bride

She frantically, but quietly, started to search for something else to think about…

FLASHBACK

"Kagome Higurashi…I know we haven't been together that long but…I cant help but feel the need to be with you…I want to make you smile, I want to make you laugh, and…most of all I want to make you happy…and through this relationship I have found myself to be wanting to be with you everyday, to see you everyday, to be the first and last face to see, feel, and kiss…and I know only one way to guarantee that privilege…(he got down on one knee and took out a small little black box) Kagome, will you become my wife and give me that privilege…"

END OF FLASHBACK

A small smile formed on the bride's rosy lips in remembering the proposal…

FLASHBACK

"Umm…uh…so…you know…I think you're really pretty…and, and smart…and I was just wondering…if…you know…if you wanted to…you know…uh…what I'm trying to say is…uh…"

The young college freshman smiled brightly, "I would love to be your girlfriend"

"Really!...uh…I mean…oh, that's cool"

The new couple went walking to their next class together, laughing all the way…while holding hands

END OF FLASHBACK

The bride felt her smile grow after the last memory and quickly put it back to the small smile she had before

Dark hair…silver hair…dark eyes…amber eyes…rough hands…gentle hands…good kisser…better kisser…present love…past love…

Kagome sighed quietly

'What am I doing…?'


"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER"

Totosai jumped back, just in time to dodge what would have been a fatal blow

"Are you crazy?" the old man yelled as he turned to face the owner of the deadly attack

"Totosai, I'll take as many risks as possible…just get me to that wedding" said a very determined and begging hanyou, "Please…"

'OH MY GOD…the boy said please…sincerely!'

"I have the vehicle in a garage not far from here; we can make it with your demon speed"

"Alright then"

"Hey Inuyasha…you know I have to ride on your back"

Inuyasha rolled his eyes, "Yeah, yeah…hop on…"

"YEAH! PIGGY BACK RIDE! I haven't had one in ages!" As the old man finished his exclamation of joy he hopped…literally hopped…onto Inuyasha's back

"OI! Stop the damn giggling"

"I feel like a child again! GO HORSEYYY GOO!"

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!"

You could hear sounds of laughter and arguing as the duo raced to the destined garage


'I'm so bored…doesn't that guy ever stop talking…'

"You too huh…" whispered a voice next to the adorable half-demon

"I'm I showing it too much?" she whispered worriedly

"Nah…it's just radiating off of you like some animal in heat" responded her also adorable twin

"Isamu!" her sister said fiercely to her impolite twin

"What! It's true!" Isamu said in her defense

"Ahem…are you girls done?" asked the priest to the half-demon twins

"(Gasp) uh, yes, sorry!" chorused both young hanyous and bowed their heads respectively

But they immediately smiled when they saw Kagome trying to calm her chuckles

"See what you did Shizu, you got us in trouble" murmured Isamu

"Me! You're the one being impolite!" she said being careful not to raise her voice so the priest could hear

"Goody two shoes"

Shizu just turned and stuck out her tongue at Isamu, Isamu turned to face the priest and pout

Kagome…now having calmed her chuckles looked at the pouting Isamu and the snickering Shizu

'Now isn't Shizu supposed to be the "good" twin' she thought jokingly

Then her thoughts took her to what could be the future…her future

FLASHFORWARD

"Mother! Mother!" called a small boy with dark hair

"Yes dear?" answered a Kagome who looked a bit older

"Father's waiting for us any second now we should go…and don't forget I have practice this afternoon"

"Yes dear, I'll just go freshen up and we'll be off"

"I'll wait for you downstairs mother!"

"Alright"

FLASHFORWARD END

Kagome sighed, 'that's how he would want our child to be…polite, punctual, intelligent…'

FLASHFORWARD

"MOMMYY!" cried a tearing child with silver and black hair with two silver puppy ears on his head with the tips colored black

"What's wrong?"

"I fell and it hurts!"

Kagome smiled and took a band-aid out of her pocket…she knew she would need it when she heard her son wail…and put it on the scraped knee, she then kissed it

"Oi! He doesn't need the band-aid; it'll heal before the hour is over"

Kagome rolled her eyes and smiled at her son, "Oh he knows that, he just likes it when I put a band-aid and kiss the pain away"

Her son smiled and looked at his father and he stuck out his tongue at him…just like Shizu did to Isamu…

"Why you…" the father would say and he would chase the little boy all over the backyard and then they would later come home covered in some kind of dirt…and both would earn good scolding from Kagome

END OF FLASHFORWARD

Kagome smiled, 'I would rather have a child that I can scold than a child who is already disciplined by his father…'

Kagome drew a frown and looked at the groom, 'this isn't right…what am I doing…?'

"And now for the vows" declared the priest

"Please repeat after me"

Kagome's head was in a whirl when her future husband took her hand and the priest started to say the indicated vows

'What am I doing…?'


"Thanks old man! I owe you one!" exclaimed Inuyasha as he sped off with the one-of-a-kind motorcycle, specifically made by the hands of the greatest mechanic in all of Japan and probably the world

"Use the turbo…NOW!" yelled Totosai

Inuyasha pressed the button that Totosai had indicated before he sped off and that button really did define the word "Turbo"

'I'm coming Kagome…'


"I, Naraku Onigumo…" Kagome couldn't even hear the vows, she could only lay her eyes on his smirk after he said them…it was different…and she didn't like it…not at all…

'What am I doing…this is wrong…why does this feel so wrong…?'
