A/N: Last chapter :( I have to say I liked writing this story even though most of the chapters were short. And I am soooo sorry that I updated a day before I go back to school (the 7th). Grade 11 Is going to be a killer so I am glad I finished this story :D. I hope you liked this chapter and I know Inuyasha is a little OOC in this chapter but come on I had to ;P. Please Review it would mean a lot to me.

Last Time:

"Sesshomaru's paying!" Inuyasha yelled smiling back at them.

"Excuse me?" Sesshomaru said deadly towering over his little brother.

"Um... Dad's paying!" Inuyasha yelled looking for his father to refuse just as his brother did.

Before his father, Korien, could open his mouth, Kagome's father spoke up. "That's a great idea. Korien and I could split the bill. If that is alright with you, Korien ?"

Seeing everyone staring at him, he gave in. "Sure, we can split the bill. Let's go home and get ready. Everyone meet at our house at 7 and we'll leave from there."

Saying goodbyes everyone left to get ready for the celebration dinner that night... But someone had a trick up their sleeve...There was going to be another reason for celebration...

Now:

5:00 – Kagome's House

The gang decided that before the celebration dinner, that they would hang out together as a group to just hang out. They had nothing better to do, so they gathered in the living room playing Twister. Sango, Kagome and Inuyasha were left playing, Miroku was spinning the board for each of them. He would have still been in, if not for his perverted ways, Roku decided to touch Sango's butt yet again. Sango slapped him and was able to keep her balance, unlike Miroku who fell to the ground.

"Sango, left hand yellow, right foot green." Miroku told her, reading off the board.

"This would be so much easier if both Kagome and Inuyasha weren't here at all." Sango mumbled out loud.

"Making the purpose of the game futile, don't you think Sango?" Kagome asked laughing, almost falling over when Sango put her hand on yellow. During that movement she almost made Inuyasha drop.

*Ding Dong*

"Damn! Someone's at the door." Inuyasha said concentration breaking, it's a tough war, the game of Twister.

"Don't worry I'll get it." Miroku said getting up from his spot on the floor.

"Dammit Miroku! Hurry up, remember your the one spinning the board." Inuyasha seethed, feeling trapped with Kagome closely beside him and Sango over them both.

"Yeah, yeah." Miroku yelled laughing at Inuyasha's predicament.

*Three Minutes Later*

"What the hell has Miroku been doing? Did he go get a pizza and eat it by himself or something?" Inuyasha said a little pissed off that Miroku left them there for three minutes with their bodies in a tangled mess.

At that comment, Miroku walked in with a bowl of chips, two cokes in hand and a girl at his side with three other cokes. This girl had her hair into a high ponytail; making her hair still past her waist, loose black fitting jeans, surprisingly no make up and a simple red tube top.

"Guess who I found at the door." Miroku said putting the stuff on the coffee table, that had been pushed to the side. After he did that he took the two cokes from the girl at his side.

"Hey Kikyo." Kagome smiled slightly, from her spot beneath Sango and now slightly beneath Inuyasha as well. "Miroku would you hurry it up, I'm kind of starting to slip."

"Oh! Sorry about that guys." Miroku said hurriedly spinning the arrow on the board. "Yasha, right foot blue, left hand red."

Inuyasha moved his left hand to the red circle, but as he was moving his right foot to the blue one he lost his balance. Surprisingly, not taking Kagome down with him. So that left Kagome and Sango in the game.

"Dammit, thanks a lot Roku" Inuyasha muttered.

"What the hell did I do?" Miroku said spinning the wheel again for Kagome. "Right hand green, left foot yellow."

"You made me loose my concentration by leaving so damn long."

Kikyo laughed at the scene before her, shaking her head while smiling. "Seems like you guys are having fun." She mentioned plopping down on the couch.

"Sorry about that Kikyo, what's up?" Sango said waiting for her turn.

"Oh nothing just wondered what you guys were up to after your victory. I'm surprised you guys are here playing Twister instead of partying." Kikyo said in a teasing tone. " Oh sorry again about the whole 'breaking you guys up' thing." She said looking back and forth between Inuyasha and Kagome.

"No need to keep apologizing Kikyo. All is forgiven." Kagome said watching Sango move her left hand to green and her left foot red.

"How are things between you and Naraku going?" Sango asked curious.

Kikyo smiled , "Really good, he would have come along but he had some school stuff to catch up on before exams."

Kikyo smiled at them and continued to watch as neither Kagome or Sango were willing to give in after ten more spins. Inuyasha walked behind the couch and asked her, "Kikyo, can I talk to you in the outside for a second?"

Kikyo nodded and told the others she would be back in a minute and followed Inuyasha outside to the front yard. The others saw them leave but no one was concerned, so they went back to their competition also known as there fun but overly competitive game.

! Kikyo and Inuyasha !

Once they were a good distance from the front door, Inuyasha stopped walking and turned to Kikyo.

"So what is it that you wanted to talk to me about Inuyasha? You wouldn't have asked me to come out here if it wasn't something serious."

"I need your help with something..."

Kikyo gave him a very odd but questioning look. "You trust me enough to come to me for help?"

"Kikyo, my trust in you never wavered. Well maybe a little bit with that whole 'break them up' thing but after you saved Kagome and myself, how could I not trust you?" Inuyasha questioned. Kikyo just shrugged slightly looking away. "The reason I called you out here was because of this." Inuyasha pulled something out of his pocket and showed it to her.

Kikyo looked at him in pure shock, she was almost speechless. " Is that a …"

Inuyasha chuckled at the look on her face, "Yeah it is. I just don't know how to give it to her, every time I try to, I always chicken out. Do you think I'm being too hasty? I mean we've only been dating a month and everything." Inuyasha asked continuing to ramble on.

" Of course not! Yeah, you've only been dating a month but have known each other your entire lives. I don't see why she wouldn't love a gift like this. When are you planning to give it to her?"

"Tonight. Her family and mine, is taking us to a restaurant to celebrate. I think I might give it to her then."

"Inuyasha, she'll love it, it came from your heart." Kikyo said smiling at him. Suddenly he did something that left her speechless. He hugged her.

"Thanks Kikyo." Inuyasha said pulling back.

Kikyo smiled a genuine smile, "No problem Inuyasha. Let's head back in before they think I hid your body somewhere." Kikyo said laughing at that scenario.

Inuyasha laughed along and followed her into the house. Once they entered the living room they saw Kagome, Miroku and Sango on the couch watching a scary movie, eating popcorn. Inuyasha sat in front of Kagome on the floor and Kikyo sat on the love seat next to the couch.

"Who won?" Inuyasha asked grabbing some popcorn.

"...Sango. But it was unfair she pushed me." Kagome stated not too happy that she lost.

"Bad bad Sango." Inuyasha said laughing, the others laughing along with him.

"Oh shut up Inuyasha." Sango said jokingly, pushing him off balance.

"See that's what she did to me." Kagome said pointing accusingly at Sango, who cowered into Miroku's side trying to hide her laughter. Finally she couldn't hold it in and began to laugh hysterically, with the other joining her in her fits of laughter.

[Dinner]

Currently everyone was sitting around a big table making small talk with one another. On one side of the table sat Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Sesshomaru, on the other side sat Korien, Izayoi, Kyo (Kagome's dad), Satsuki (Kagome's mother) and Rin. Everyone dressed semi-formal for this occasion because this win was an extreme celebration party.

Kagome wore a white strapless dress that ended mid thigh, white two inch heels, hair down in light flowing curls and a shawl around her arms. Sango wore a red strap dress that ended at her knees, hair in a high ponytail, and black comfortable flats. Rin wore a two piece lavender outfit; hair slightly crimped and flowed down to her shoulders, black heels and a shawl. Inuyasha, Miroku and Sesshomaru were all where a tux. Inuyasha had a few of the top buttons undone with his jacket on , unlike Miroku who took his off because of the heat. Sesshomaru was wearing his but with his tie loosened a bit.

Inuyasha was talking to Kagome, Miroku and Sango about how the drama was finally over.

"It's finally over. We don't have to worry about dying anytime soon." Sango said happily turning to her friends.

"Yeah, I at least want to be old before that happens." Kagome mentioned laughing.

"That reminds me, I have something to give you Kagome." Inuyasha said standing up and going behind her. Now everyone at the table had their eyes on the pair.

"Inu, you didn't have to get me anything." Kagome said turning in her seat to look at him but turned back as Inuyasha motioned her to.

"But I wanted to." Inuyasha said pulling something out of his pocket and putting it around her neck and clasping it, so it was closed. Once Inuyasha sat back down, Kagome looked to see what he put around her neck.

Kagome gasped when she saw it was. It was a silver and red heart shaped locket, the chain was sterling silver and it had her name engraved on the front and his on the back. The pendent was as big as the pad of her thumb, length and width. Kagome's eyes started to glaze over when she looked over at Inuyasha.

"Open it." Inuyasha whispered to her.

Kagome give him a curious look then opened the locket. On the left was a picture they took when they were younger. " Oh I remember this." Kagome smiled at the memory.

|| Flashback ||

"Kagome get back here!" An 8 year old Inuyasha yelled running after his best friend.

"Ha ha ha, only if you can catch me!" A seven year old Kagome laughed running away from Inuyasha who was about to tag her.

They've been running around the yard for a few hours tagging each other back and forth. They declared that if Inuyasha tagged her in the next five minutes, before lunch, then he would win. But if he didn't she won. Kagome was running out of options as she looked back to see Inuyasha speeding toward her fast. She used her last idea and ran to the large tree they had on the grounds and jumped onto the lowest branch near her. Kagome began climbing to get away from Inuyasha.

Inuyasha caught up to her when she was about 8 feet off the ground. "Hey, Kagz, you know I could just jump up and reach where you are in a second right?" Inuyasha mocked smiling, from the base of the tree.

Kagome laughed but kept climbing, but when she was reaching for the next branch she slipped and began to fall.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled seeing her fall and put his arms out to catch her. He caught her bridal style but fell on his butt from the impact and she ended up on his lap.

Kagome's mother came out with a camera around her wrist and their lunch in hand. "Guy's-" She was cut off by laughing coming from the tree, she looked over to see Kagome in Inuyasha's lap both of them laughing at there condition. Satsuki smiled warmly at them and snapped a picture with both of them looking at each other laughing.

"Got you Kagome." Inuyasha said slyly helping his best friend off the ground.

|| End Of Flashback ||

Kagome looked at the right side of the locket and noticed that the picture was taken in Hawaii and one she did not recognize. Looking more closely at the picture she realized that she wasn't even awake for the picture. She laughed slightly while looking at it. In the picture she was sleeping on Inuyasha's lap, face toward the camera smiling in her sleep and Inuyasha was softly stroking her hair.

"When was this picture taken?" Kagome asked with a semi-surprised look, while looking at Inuyasha.

Inu looked back at her, a light pink tainting his cheeks. "I got that picture from Sango."

Sango smiled wide when they both looked over at her. " I took it with my cell phone, Inuyasha remember that day you thought I was sleeping and you were taking to Miroku about asking Kagome out? I took it when you thought I wasn't paying attention."

"Why haven't I seen or heard about this until now?" Kagome asked wondering if she was THAT clueless.

"Don't worry it doesn't matter." Inuyasha said looking across the table beginning to remember that his parents, Kagome;s parents, Sesshomaru and Rin where all there.

"Sesshy why didn't you ever do that for me?" Rin asked pouting.

"This Sesshomaru never did it because I gave you that book full of love poems, remember?"

"Oh yeah." Rin said smiling as if she didn't even bring it up.

Kagome shakes her head smiling, then looked back to Inuyasha. "Inu, I love it, it's absolutely beautiful." Kagome said giving him a bright smile and pecking him on the cheek.

"Who knew our sons were such romantics?" Izayoi asked Korien smiling happily at their sons.

"Mom quit it." Inuyasha said embarrassed.

Sesshomaru didn't comment and only gave a slight smile at his step mother. Even though she wasn't his biological mother, she treated him with kindness and took care of him as if he was her own. Sesshomaru may not show much emotion but she knows that he loves her for everything she's done.

"Inuyasha aren't you forgetting something?" Kyo asked smiling almost mockingly at him.

"No I didn't forget." Inuyasha answered almost nervously.

"Forget what?" Miroku asked looking at his closest friend curiously.

Inuyasha looked around the table to see everyone staring at him questioningly. "I guess this would be a good time huh?" Inuyasha asked, his eyes landing on Kyo.

"That would be a good idea." Kyo answered smiling encouragingly.

Inuyasha took a deep breath, stood out of his chair and turned to Kagome. "Kagome, this may seem a little odd but please bare with me okay?" Inuyasha said nervously. When he got a nod from her , he continued. "You know I am not good with expressing my feelings but for you I will try. Kagome, you bring me to a world that I've never seen. You make me forget the world apart from our moments together. You teach me theirs nothing to fear , when all I have is all our own. You make me see their is nothing that can hurt me as long as I stay in this world along with you." Inuyasha put his hand upon her cheek lovingly. " Assure me that time has not stopped when you find me here. Kagome, you take me to a new world, that I've never seen and never want to return from. Your my life, my world, everything that I am is because of you. Alone I would be nothing without your beautiful smile, your fiery personality and your teasing. You make my day, just being near me." Inuyasha smiled softly as Kagome's eyes began to glaze over with tears. "Don't make my world fall apart, my heart belongs to you. I want to be with you now and for the rest of my life. So answer me this Kagome." Inuyasha knelt down on one knee and pulled out a black box from his jacket pocket and opened it. "Kagome, you are my sun and moon. My light in the dark and I love you more than words can describe. Kagome Higurashi, will you marry me?"

Everyone at the table was shocked, no one knew he was going to do this but by the look on Kyo and Satsuki's face they had an idea about this. Everyone at the table, apart from them, had their eyes wide open and jaws dropped. Even Inuyasha's parents had no idea he was planning to do this.

Kagome gasped in shock and looked down at the ring that Inuyasha took out of the box and grabbed her hand with his other hand. The ring had a square diamond in the middle and 2 smaller ones on each side. The ring was silver with vines all the way around it. The vines were their hidden secret when they were kids and she smiled at the thought. They use to play in the forest behind his house until it was time to get home.

"Kagome, the decision is all your own. No one is making the decision for you, regardless of what I feel, it's your time to decide where this is going." Inuyasha said looking deeply into her eyes.

Tears began to run down her cheeks and he wiped them away with the pad of his thumbs, hand still on her cheek. "Inuyasha, seeing you in a new light's and the old ones, has my heart going haywire. I'm laughing louder, Smiling wider and happier beyond belief. No one has that effect like you do. No matter what, I'll always be by your side. You say I can live with out you? I beg to differ. You mean too much, to ever live without. So Yes Inuyasha I will marry you." Kagome said brightly smiling and crying tears of joy when Inuyasha slipped the ring on her finger. She jumped into his arms and he got up and swung her around a few times, their audience (their table) were clapping and cheering.

After Inuyasha and Kagome sat back down she asked, "Okay who knew about this?"

"The only ones who knew were your parents." Inuyasha asked smiling hugely. 'I finally have her all to myself. The girl of my dreams is finally mine.'

"Wait, your parents didn't even know?"Miroku asked still in slight shock.

" I can assure you, we had no idea." Korien said.

"I hope your not angry." Inuyasha said worriedly, forgetting that his parents should have had a say in all this.

"Angry? Why would we be angry? My lovely god-daughter is getting married to my son." Izayoi said getting up and hugging them both tightly.

"But there is one thing Inuyasha forgot to mention." Kyo intervened. "He agreeded that they would get married AFTER high school."

"Oh yeah, that is alright with you right Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.

"As long as I have you to myself i'm fine with it." Kagome said smiling and leaning against Inuyasha so he wrapped his arms around her.

"Well, it looks as if we have two things to celebrate." Rin said naturally happy for the two of them.

"By the way, Sango?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah?" Sango answered, looking up from Miroku who pecked her on the cheek, to Kagome.

"You and Miroku are next." Kagome winked and smiled. While Miroku and Sango turned beet red.

Everyone that night, congratulated the couple and asked many questions but mostly enjoyed each others company

Later that night...

Everyone was in the Higurashi household apart from Kagome and Inuyasha. The couple were currently outside siting in front of the tree that Kagome fell out of when she was younger. They've been out there for a few hours now and everyone in the house decided to give the couple some time alone.

Kagome yawned leaning more on Inuyasha, who had his back against the base of the tree with her in his lap.

"Is my fiance getting tired?" Inuyasha asked kissing her lightly on the cheek.

"No." Kagome smiled sleepily and turned to face him. " We've been through a lot these past years."

"Yeah tell me about it." Inuyasha answered laughing. "And you've always been by my side."

"And I always will be." Kagome whispered kissing him upon the lips, deeply portraying a deep promise that neither of them would ever break.
