Sooo Inuyasha's hormones go a little crazy toward the end of this chapter. He is a teenage boy after all. Also i do not own Bruno Mars' Marry You.
12 Days until the wedding…
Inuyasha walked toward the well, his body completely exhausted. 'Stupid human night,' he thought, looking at the sun as it got closer and closer to the horizon. Kagome had gone back to the modern era to help her mother with wedding planning, which gave Inuyasha time to put the finishing touches on the hut he had built. He was quite proud of the hut. The sturdy walls and roof would keep Kagome warm during the cold winter months, but there were enough windows to keep it cool on warm summer nights. 'I did a damn good job,' Inuyasha thought proudly as he jumped into the well, the familiar blue light engulfing him. 'All that's left to do is get some furniture and everything will be done.' He walked out of the well house, his eyes landing on the house that was like a second home to him.
After so many years of being homeless, he was surprised to have so many places he called home. There was the Goshinboku, where he was pinned for 50 years. That was the first home he had since his mother's death. Then there was Kaede's hut where they always stayed after hunting down jewel shards. He even counted Kaede as part of his family like Sango, Miroku, and Shippo. Though instead of being a sister or brother, she was more like a grandma, there to give advice whether or not you asked for it. Now Kagome's house was like a home to him. He knew its inhabitants well; heck he was even calling Kagome's mother mom. He knew the personalities of everyone; he knew how to work some of the appliances. Inuyasha even had his own seat at the dinner table, right next to Kagome. And now he would have a 4th home, the home he and Kagome would live in together. Inuyasha jumped onto Kagome's windowsill but froze as he went to open the window. 'Is she…dancing?' he thought. Kagome's back was to the window, folding clothes as she bounced to the beat. Inuyasha could hear her voice singing along to the music.
It's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Oh, come on, girl.
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it's on, girl.
Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
Inuyasha resisted the urge to laugh as he watched Kagome dance around her room, her arms and legs moving oddly. 'Modern dance is ridiculous,' he thought, shaking his head.
Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
'Did she just say my name?' he thought, his ears flicking. His mind replayed Kagome's voice, distinctly hearing Kagome sing "Hey Inuyasha, I think I wanna marry you." Inuyasha smiled smugly, happy Kagome was singing his name.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So what you wanna do?
Let's just run girl.
Inuyasha felt his throat go dry as his eyes locked onto Kagome's swaying hips. He could feel his heartbeat faster as his palms got sweaty. 'Stupid human hormones.'
If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.
No, I won't blame you;
It was fun, girl.
Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Just say I do,
Tell me right now baby,
Tell me right now baby, baby.
Inuyasha opened the window silently, slipping into her room. "I thought you were supposed to say I do," Inuyasha said, surprising Kagome.
Kagome spun around, the stack of shirts slipping out of her hands. 'Oh my god! How long has he been standing there?' she thought. 'Oh kami, did he hear me singing? Oh my god oh my god oh my god.'
Inuyasha chuckled softly as Kagome began to blush. He stepped forward, kissing her lips softly. "Don't worry; I won't tell anyone I heard you singing about me wench," he whispered.
Kagome's eyes widened, blushing even more. "I…I'm umm going to pack the clothes," she stammered, picking the clothes off the floor and sprinting out of the room with no intention of returning until her blush faded.
'This wench is gonna be the death of me,' Inuyasha thought, kissing Kagome deeply. He thought back to how he ended up in this wonderful yet frustrating situation. Inuyasha had spent the rest of the evening with Kagome and her family, changing into his human state during dinner, which amazed Sota. After watching some TV, Inuyasha and Kagome headed upstairs to her room like they always did. After Kagome came back into the room dressed in her pajamazs, they somehow ended up on her bed, locked in a passionate kiss. Inuyasha vaguely remembered grabbing Kagome's waist and pulling her onto the bed with him. 'Damn human hormones,' he thought in a voice that sounded half like a curse and half like a thank you.
Inuyasha pulled away from Kagome, giving her a chance to catch her breath. He took in her flushed cheeks and bright eyes, smiling at her smugly.
Kagome took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart. She didn't know what came over Inuyasha, but she wasn't complaining. After changing into her sleeping clothes, she came back into her room to find Inuyasha sitting on her bed. He wrapped his arms around her waist as she walked past her bed, pulling her ontop of him before kissing her. She didn't know how long they laid on her bed in a heat filled lip lock, but Inuyasha's lips trailing down her throat, thwarting her attempts. "Inuyasha," she whispered breathlessly.
"Mate," he growled, kissing the skin where her neck and shoulder met. His demon side wanted to mark her and mate her now, to claim her as his, but he knew he couldn't do that. In both his time and hers, it was a thing of shame to be claimed by a male without being his mate. Inuyasha pulled away from Kagome, rolling them onto their sides. He would wait till the wedding. "You drive me crazy wench," Inuyasha said, kissing her forehead as he covered her with his discarded haori. He wondered vaguely when it had been taken off.
"I could say the same thing," Kagome laughed, resting her head on Inuyasha's chest.
"Go to sleep now; it's late," he said as he wrapped his arms around her.
Kagome was quiet for a few minutes, the exhaustion of the day washing over her. "Hey Inuyasha," she said sleepily.
"Hmm."
"Why do you say mate instead of wife? Your mom was human so didn't you hear the word before?"
"Well two reasons, Inu-demons mate for life. They mark their mates and it always stays there. Demons may enter a union like my father and Sesshomaru's mother did, but you only have one mate."
"And the second reason?" Kagome asked, yawning.
"The second reason," Inuyasha replied, running his fingers through Kagome's hair, "is because of your time. You told me in your time even if you get married, you can leave each other and marry again, right?" Kagome nodded her head against his chest. "You, Kagome, will be my one and only. In your world a man can call different women at different times wife. But you can only have one mate and I will only have you."
Kagome smiled, kissing his chest gently. "Where's the mate mark gonna be?"
"Right here," he replied, his fingertips brushing the spot on her shoulder that he had kissed earlier.
"Will it hurt?" she asked softly.
"Nah, I'll take care of you," he said, tightening his arms around her. He waited for more of Kagome's questions but was greeted with the sound of her gentle breathing. "Just a few more days," he whispered.
Inuyasha and Kagome are getting...frisky. But it's still 12 days until the wedding. Kagome's got a bachelorette party, Myoga has a gift, and Inuyasha has a surprise for Kagome all before they reach the altar. What else can happen
