Fighting for Love
For ten years Kagome and I fought Nuraku until finally we beat him. He was our greatest achievement together and nothing made me happier than bringing that slime down. But Kagome was not happy. Ten minutes after his death and after the shock of it all wore off, she began to cry. Her tears were sudden and caught us all off guard. Noone knew what to do except let her shed her tears uninhibited.
Inuyasha recounted the events of the day Nuraku was slain and shook with anger. How could I be so stupid, he thought. He didn't know it then but he knew now; Kagome thought he was marrying her out of pity. I have to tell her now before she runs out on me. Inuyasha stood and went to the restroom door where Kagome was and began to search for the right words.
If he was going to do this he had to do it right. Finally after about five minutes Inuyasha started, "Kagome?" He waited for a reply. Nothing. " Kagome I know that you don't want to talk to me right now but please tell me that you are listening."
After a minute had passed, a hoarse Kagome whimpered, " Yes, I'm listening."
"Kagome, do you remember when I... we killed Nuraku?" Without waiting for an answer, he continued, " You cried for ten days without rest; even crying in your sleep." On the other side of the bathroom door a slightly annoyed Kagome thought, Of course I remember! How could I forget. I had never cried so much in my entire life! Inuyasha kept going, " The rest of us were so worried about you. We thought you would never stop."
Cooler than expected, she said, "Get to the point Inuyasha. What's this all about?"
"Well, when you finally did stop crying, I asked you to marry me," nervously he asked, "Why do you think I asked you?" once the question was out he couldn't take it back so he stood there waiting for her reply. He told himself he would wait forever if he had to, but lucky for him it took Kagome all of five seconds to answer him.
"Because Kikyou isn't around anymore and you need someone you could keep hanging by a thread as you ripped...," that was as far as she got before she burst into tears. That was as far as she got before Inuyasha opened the door and declared his love for her.
"Kagome I love," were the only words he said before he pulled her into his arms and kissed her. The kiss was so fierce that she was shaking when he finally released her from it. He didn't let go however. He held tight to her and declared never to let her go and never to give her reason to push him away again.
That day, about three hours behind schedule, Inuyasha married Kagome and they lived to argue and fight and make-up for many years. They lived, loved, and laughed as if tomorrow would never come and for them it never did. Their passion seemed to stop all time around them so that the happiness never faded and the romance always grew.
This is the end of the Inuyasha/Kagome wedding day so I hope you enjoyed it. Please review you know you want too.
