Pairing is Kagome and Shigure. Now on with the story.

No

Shigure paced aimlessly around the living room part of his cabin. Kyo, Tohru, Yuki and Hatori watched him. The three third years in high school were completely in the dark; they had no idea as to what was bothering him. Hatori on the other hand knew very well what was bothering him and voiced his opinion. "She'll say yes. She loves you. Think happy thoughts, don't start stressing yourself out."

"You're right. A high school girl, high school girl, only for me, high school girl." (A/N: he wouldn't be Shigure if this wasn't said somewhere in this story.)

"Hold on, what's going on?" asked Kyo.

"Um, I believe Shigure is proposing to some girl," Tohru said.

"She's in high school isn't she?" asked Yuki in a disapproving voice.

"Yes, and she's amazing, beautiful, sweet and so much more."

"Hatori! Stop him!" yelled Kyo.

"I can't. They both are completely in love with each other. I've tried, they are perfect for each other."

Shigure who had quieted down thought about the first time he met her. It was shortly after the curse broke and she had transferred into the second year class of Kyo, Tohru and Yuki.

~Flashback~

"So you two, where is Tohru?" Shigure asked.

"Out with the new girl," answered a dejected Kyo.

"I believe she's bringing her here for the weekend. Something about sharing stories and recipies," said Yuki.

"Ooh, another high school girl for me. What's she like?"

Before either of the two could answer a female voice answered, "Someone who doesn't appreciate perverts." (A/N: hmmm I wonder why.)

Kyo and Yuki burst out laughing while Tohru hid her laugh behind her hand.

"She has you pegged," said both Kyo and Yuki.

Shigure noticed the wistful look on her face as she looked around at all of them.

"Tohru, why don't you show her where she'll be sleeping."

"Okay, follow me Kagome."

They left and Shigure turned and glared at the two boys.

"So, what is she really like?"

"She's intelligent, very intelligent, especially in history. Though it's shocking that she is, she was absent a lot from her other school. She looks like she has lived several lifetimes and she has that look in her eyes that matches Hatori's. We think that there's a lost love in there somewhere, but she's incredibly kind and sweet, though she tends to keep to herself a lot," said Yuki.

As soon as he finished saying that the girls came down the stairs.

"Thank you for letting me stay the weekend," said Kagome after which she flashed him a brilliant smile.

Seeing that smile made Shigure's heart stop.

"You're welcome," he managed to say.

Later that night Shigure couldn't sleep, so he went to get a glass of milk. On his way back to his room he ran into a figure. Quickly he caught the figure before it could fall. He then realized that the figure was rather feminine. The figure turned out to be Kagome and she seemed to be out of it.

"Kagome," he said, which caught her attention. She quickly realized that she was in his arms and pressed to his bare chest.

"Shigure, let me go."

"I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means no."

"I know what it means and please let me go."

"Don't feel like it."

"Fine, you leave me no choice."

She kneed him and he immediately let go and curled into a ball.

"Perverts and dogs, don't need any more of those."

Months passed and somehow they grew closer, for some odd reason, and Shigure asked a life changing question.

"Go out with me?"

"I don't know," Kagome answered.

"Why?"

"My past."

"Can't be any crazier than mine."

"Oh it is."

"Fine we shall compare, and at the end if you still don't think you can then I won't ask again."

"Ok, but you go first."

"Fine, my family was cursed with the vengeful spirits of the Zodiac. I was the dog."

He turned when heard her laughing.

"Sorry, but I always knew you were a dog."

At this point he joined her. Then she quickly sobered up and told him all about what happened since her fifteenth birthday.

"Wow, so date me?"

"You don't care," she turned and looked at him, "Yes."

Shigure then bent his head and kissed her. After that they went out whenever they could, not letting anyone know until Hatori found out. That day Kagome had cut her foot on some glass and Shigure, who was panicking, took her to Hatori. He stitched her up and questioned them. After a few weeks of trying to split them up, he realized that they were good for each other and gave his blessing. A couple months later Kagome became a third year in high school and Shigure made another life changing decision.

"Kagome, my sweet Kagome?"

"Yes Shigure?"

"I love you."

Kagome was silent for a moment before she took his face and kissed him.

"I love you too."

This time Shigure picked her up, kissed her, then spun her around before pulling her close for an earth-shattering kiss.

Then a few months later Shigure decided to make another life changing decision.

~End Flashback~

'Yep another life changing decision and Hatori is right; she'll say yes. I just hope Yuki, Kyo and Tohru are going to be okay with this.'

He turned when he heard the sweet voice of his Kagome call out. "Hello, anybody here?"

"In the living room Kagome," called out Shigure.

"Well hello everyone."

"Hello Kagome," everyone responded.

"Kagome if you would like, would you care to walk with me to the lake?" asked Shigure.

"Sure."

"Wai…" Kyo stopped when he saw the glare Hatori was giving him.

So they all watched as the two of them disappeared from sight.

*FD*

Once Kagome was sure that they were out of sight, she reached over and grabbed Shigure's hand. She looked up at him and asked, "Won't they be suspicious?"

"Probably, but it doesn't matter, because it won't change the fact that I love you."

"I guess."

They walked in silence until they made it to the lake just as the sun was setting.

"It's beautiful," said Kagome.

"Yes, you are," Shigure said as he got down on one knee.

"What are you doing?" Kagome asked shakily.

Ignoring her question he continued on, "I love everything about you and I can't see a future or my life without you in it." He paused and pulled out a ring. Kagome gasped as tears came to her eyes.

"Kagome will you marry me?"

"Of course, I love you so much."

He slipped the ring onto her finger and then lifted her face to give her a kiss that was filled with all of his love for her. They eventually broke apart and it was all Kagome could do to stand up. 'Wow!'

"You're going to have to carry me back Shigure, I don't think I can walk."

"It would be my pleasure," he said while picking her up bridal style.

They walked back to the cabin stealing kisses from each other. When they got back to the cabin they were bombarded with questions.

"What happened? Are you hurt Kagome. Shigure what did you do?"

"I'm fine, just a little weak in the knees. Shigure's carrying me because I couldn't walk."

That's when everyone saw the ring on her finger.

"Shigure," two very angry voices said while Tohru said, "Congratulations you two."

"Thanks Tohru," Kagome said through a yawn.

Ignoring the other two, Kagome and Shigure headed upstairs so Shigure could put Kagome to bed as she seemed to be falling asleep.

"Love you 'gure."

"I love you too 'gome"

With that he tucked her into bed, kissed her forehead and closed her door.
