A/N Ok so I decided that I am going to continue this along and see where it ends up. It is going to be a slow process due to the fact that I am new to writing and only on the rare occasion get a sudden burst of inspiration. Anyway enough of this lets get back to the story.

Chapter Two

Sharing The News

Kagome had said yes, she had actually said yes. Joy filled Inuyasha's heart as this thought kept running through his head. The raven haired girl was sitting quietly in

Inuyasha's lap staring at her beautiful ring. It was simple and had no diamonds since it had been created in the Feudal Era but that didn't bother her at all if anything

her ring was more precious than any flashy diamond ring because it had come from her Inuyasha. Her Inuyasha, the way that sounded in her head made her smile.

The silver haired hanyou sighed happily as he played with Kagome's hair. He bent over her wrapping his arms around her tightly and whispering into her ear, you have

made me the happiest man alive Kagome. She smiled and pushed deeper into his embrace never wanting this moment to end. They sat by the tree of ages together

staring up at the sky bathing in the happiness that they were both feeling. Kagome sighed as she came out of her happy daze and stared at her ring again. She

craned her neck back to look up at Inuyasha he looked down at her and smiled. He kissed her forehead and nuzzled his head against hers. What are you thinking

about? Kagome turned her head and kissed his check and replied with a simple you. He tightened his grip on her and pulled both of her hands together and held them

in his. Kagome looked down at his hands seeing just how gently he was holding them and then noticed one thing. Say Inuyasha, he looked down at her and said hmm,

did you get yourself one? A confused look crossed Inuyasha's face before he realised that she was staring at her ring. He laughed and pulled away from her reaching

into his kimono again, I almost forgot he pulled out another ring that looked almost the same as hers but plain and it was wider. The raven haired girl smiled at him

and picked it out of his hands and grabbed his hand to place his ring on just as he had done to her. He smiled at her and stared at the ring, it's going to be strange

getting used to wearing this thing but if it symbolizes being yours like you told me I will never remove it. Just hearing those words made Kagome's heart race,

Inuyasha was hers and no one could take him away from her. The two sat by the tree Kagome still in Inuyasha's lap with his arms wrapped around her. Kagome

sighed I wish time would freeze in this very moment and we would never have to move. Who says we have to move? She arched her neck and smiled up at Inuyasha.

Well we have to go back to the others or they might start to worry about us. The silver haired hanyou sighed as he knew what Kagome had said was true. A grin came

on Inuyasha's face as he looked down at Kagome you know what that means don't you. She looked at him with a puzzled face. We get to share the news with the

others. Kagome gasped, your right oh I hope they will be happy for us. Keh who are you kidding of course they are going to be happy for us. The raven haired girl

smiled and nodded, your right they will be how should we tell them? Well how about we tell all of them together. Kagome nodded grabbing Inuyasha's hand and

walking back towards the village. The two walked in silence catching each other's gaze when they looked at one another at the same time. A light pink shaded

Kagome's cheeks before she turned her gaze back to the village. Inuyasha tightened his grip on Kagome's hand as the stepped into Kaede's hut. Miroku was the first

to look up and notice the couple holding hands and a smile came across his face as he switched his gaze to Inuyasha who replied to his silent question with a nod.

Sango, Kaede and Shippo all looked up together to notice the same thing that Miroku had. Kagome smiled at Inuyasha before announcing to the group that they had

great news to share with them. Sango's eyes widened as the glimmer of light from Kagome's new ring hit her eye. Uh Kagome... She fell silent and waited for the

couple to tell them the news that she had already figured out for herself. At the same time Kagome and Inuyasha smiled at the group Kagome stretching out her hand

so the group could see the ring as they both announced we are getting married. Sango squealed with excitement as she jumped up to hug Kagome. Congratulations

they all said at the same time. Kaede walked up to the new couple, ye should have a celebration with everyone from the village. Inuyasha shot Kagome a worried look

and she giggled. Oh Inuyasha there's nothing to worry about all we will have is a dinner celebration that everyone in the village can come to. He relaxed again and

nodded, ok then when should we have it. Shippo bounced into Kagome's arms, why don't we have it tonight it's still early so there's still time to organise it. Kagome

looked up at Inuyasha with a pleading look as she loved the idea of being able to celebrate their fantastic news right away. Inuyasha nodded, as long as you are sure

there is still enough time to organise everything in time then I don't see a problem with having it tonight. The raven haired girls face lit up with a smile as she hugged

him. The group got to work on the organisations right away not wasting anytime. Kaede and Shippo set out into the village to tell everyone about the celebration while

Kagome and Sango started arranging things for the night. Miroku and Inuyasha went out looking for wood so they could build a big enough fire to keep everyone

warm when the sun went down. The hours of preparation flew by and before they knew it everything was organised and the villagers were starting to make their

ways towards Kaede's hut. Kagome and Sango had arranged tables together in a line to place food on and the guys had started the fire. The night buzzed with

excitement as all the villagers walked over to Inuyasha and Kagome to congratulate them about their engagement throughout different times of the night. The night

seemed to go by so fast that it wasn't long before everyone was sitting around the fire talking and laughing. Kagome was so happy she sat next to Inuyasha a lent

against his shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her, are you warm enough he whispered into her ear. She lent further into his warm embrace and nodded. The

villagers started to leave and head back to their own huts and before they realised it was just the close group of friends left sitting around the fire. Sango moved

closer to Kagome, so did you enjoy the night? The raven haired girl smiled at her friend, yes it was a great night I'm so glad that everyone could come since it was such

short notice. Sango laughed I don't think any of the villagers would have missed it even if they were busy they all adore you so much. She hugged Kagome before

picking up Kirara and Shippo and walking into Kaede's hut. Kaede had already turned in so now it was just Inuyasha Kagome and Mirkou left sitting around the fire.

Inuyasha looked at the monk and then back down towards Kagome Miroku could tell that he wanted to be alone with Kagome and stood up saying goodnight and

making his way into Kaede's hut as well. Kagome sighed happily and Inuyasha pulled her into his lap. Did you have a good time tonight? He asked. She raised her

head so she could look into his eyes, you already made this the happiest day of my life when you asked me to marry you having everyone together to celebrate with

us tonight was just an added bonus. The silver haired hanyou smiled and stood up with Kagome still in his arms. She looked at him with a puzzled expression on her

face, where are we going? Your coming with me he said. She didn't argue and just allowed him to carry her in his arms, she looked up and noticed that they were

standing at the base of the tree that Inuyasha normally rests in. Kagome looked up at Inuyasha, what are we doing here? He smiled down at her you're sleeping with

me tonight. She looked up at the tree, are you sure that's a good idea? He laughed, don't worry I won't let you fall. She didn't doubt him for a second when he said

this she wrapped her arms around his neck for more support as he leapt up onto the tree branch. Inuyasha lent against the tree and moved Kagome into his lap

wrapping his arms around her. A slight shiver ran through Kagome's body as a breeze went past and she tried to ignore it. Inuyasha pushed her up and took off his

outer kimono top pulling Kagome close to him again he draped it over her. Kagome cuddled closer into his warmth before slowly starting to doze off to sleep. Inuyasha

tightened his hold on Kagome and relaxed back against the tree smiling at how peaceful she looked before closing his own eyes his last thought being we still have to

tell Kagome's family the news I hope that goes as well as today did.
