I held my breathe and walked forward. I looked down at myself. The white silk caressed my skin, the lace sleeves rubbed me the wrong way but i couldn't help but disregard it. I oculdn't disregard because the intricately designed roses on the lace and the flowy gown with no a train in sight, the gown that barely went below my knees was mine. It was my wedding dress...it was my wedding with Inuyasha! I couldn't contain it. The joy I mean.

I remembered it all. Every moment with him. The first kiss in front of the moon princess. The last kiss on my cheek when he thought I was asleep. The moments when I didn't want to leave his warm comforting arms. The moments where I couldn't wait to return to him. It was completely unthoughtof that he still didn't know why I loved him. There is only one thing, and that one thing is everything. He's...

"Kagome" I heard sango whisper. I looked at her, and noticed her hand itching me forward. Kaede was tugging lightly on my arm. I continued forward, careful not to look though. I hadn't seen Inuyasha all day and I wouldn't do it till I saw him standing right in front of me. I wouldn't want myslef to faint before I even got up there.

The aisle was drenched in roses, the smell made me gag. I wonder how Inuyasha is holding up? Just look at him! I commanded myself. NO! I will faint and that... that would be very bad!

Suddenly it stopped. The music, the cheering, everyone was sitting. Was I there? Why was there suddenly no pressure on my arm? Why was I suddenly staring at black tux pants? ... did he actually get dressed for this!

Breathe, look up, and most importantly DO NOT FAINT!

I did my best to do all of that, except for the latter. I stared at him. He was so beautiful. His white hair cascaded down and sparkled in the sun. His ears popped up behind his hair and hung on a limp. My legs bent a bit and the room tensed up. Rin, Kaede, and Sango reached for me. Even the men behind Inuyasha stepped forward, them being Sesshomaru, Meroko, and Shippo. (On a different note Inuyasha and Sesshomaru are speaking!) But only one of them managed to grab before I made a complete fool of myself. put his arm softly around my waist and pulled me into his chest. He laid his head on mine, held me for a moment and pushed away. Somehow we were both facing the minister. The rest of the ceremony was lost on me. Well up until, he said

"I do."

I stared up at him in awe. He was so sure when he spoke. NO hint of remorse or guilt or...anyhting! He was so sure, it was incredible. Oh no! I looked at him again! It suddenly got harder to breathe. I began gasping, and I felt tingles throughout my body. My knees bent and I grippes onto his jacket. I dug my fingernails into it and into him. He didn't even flinch. He smiled revealing perfecly white, seemingly chissled teeth. He exhaled and put his hands on my arms, near my shoulders. It was demanding yet sweet. It was perfectly Inuyasha! And I loved that, I loved him! This, this just made it official. (If it wasn't already official enough!)

He leaned down towards me. My blood boiled, it was hot. Really, really hot. My face was bright red, and he noticed. He stopped for a moment to stare. He chuckled, and pulled me up the rest of the way. Our lips met and it was beyond anything I'd ever felt before. It was beyond words. It was like being kissed for the first time. His lips were so soft and warm. It washed away all my discomfiture, and uneasiness. I didn't want to pull away, I didn't have to pull away...maybe I didn't have to but him, he would. Damn, Don't!, pull away! NO!

He pulled away and licked his upper lip, and chuckled. His nostrils flared and he smiled. His sharpest tooth stuck out over his lip. He lokked down to hide a blush than he began assessing me. When he reached my face, his own lit up. He held out his arm for me. Reluctantly I took it. Reluctant because I knew what was coming. The thing he's been wanting since we started this whole relationship. The word I refused to say. But you all know what it is! But it was him, so it wouldn't really matter.

"I can't believe you really did this" I said to him. Staring at the sacred tree.

How is it that we always end up back here?

"I'd do anything..." His voice slowly faded off. He was 's so cute.

"How did you manage to build this...?" Ohhhh the other night when Kaede was "out", she was perfecting this(the wedding). All the lights (at the wedding) were so beautiful. I stared at him, HE was so beautiful. "You know what Inuyasha, it doesn't even matter. It's just...it's wonderful." I turned to him, and grabbed both his hands."Thank you" I continued to pull his hands towards my own shoulders and placed them there. Than I wrapped my own hands around his around his waist. I leaned up to kiss him and he stopped me. He pushed me back down, his hands still on my shoulders.

"Why..why me?"

"Because... is this really appropriate? We're already married."

"But I need to know! I just...do?" he said it as a question to ask if that reason was good enough. I sighed.

"Because...Inuyasha, I love you because you're you!" I said "That's it! you're you and you're perfect that way!. I love that you"re stupid and annoying and overly sensative. I love that you're so selfconscience and inept and just a little bit strange and awkward. You're perfect and your always putting what i want first. And I am trying to make a point of ONLY what I want! You're just so Inuyasha, and I can't help that I, Kagome Higurashi, am completely and unconditionally in love with you Inuyasha, whatever the hell your last name is, if you have one!" He put a finger to my lips. I looked up at his face, he was blushing a deep red. He wasn't looking at me, he was looking away like he always did when he was embarrassed. He looked at me when he regained his facade of bravado, his finger slid below my chin and tilted my face up. He began to lean down.

"Wait, after all that, all I get is a kiss!" He smiled.

"Well Kaede, is away for a while, we could go to her place" I smiled.

This was going to be a long night! (Although that little perv Inuyasha was going to be alright.)
