The Night Before the Wedding…

Inuyasha climbed out of the well, looking at the dark walls of the well house. Almost everything was ready. He had taken the decorations Mrs. Higurashi had given him back to the Feudal Era, instructing Sango, Miroku, and Shippo. He had a new robe for the Feudal Era wedding, thanks to Kaede. Everything was in place for both the Modern Era and the Feudal Era wedding. He stepped out of the well house as the sun was setting, painting the sky a mixture of red, pink, and orange.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome called from her window.

Inuyasha looked up at Kagome, his trademark smirk on his lips. "Waiting for me wench?" he asked teasingly.

Kagome blushed slightly, a faint pink coloring her cheeks. "N-no." Inuyasha shook his head, jumping onto her windowsill effortlessly. Kagome stood back as he climbed into her room, wrapping her arms around him as he straightened himself up.

"Miss me?" he asked softly, wrapping his arms around her. They had only been apart for a day, but it seemed like the longest day to Inuyasha.

Kagome nodded against his chest, breathing in his scent. Something about Inuyasha's smell was absolutely addicting to her. He smelled fresh and clean, almost like the scent of the forest in the Feudal Era, but still distinctly Inuyasha. She sighed happily as she felt Inuyasha's fingers slowly stroke through her hair. She hated being apart from him, even if it was only for one day as pathetic as it sounded. She felt anxious and fidgety without him, constantly waiting for him to come back.

"What's that?" Inuyasha asked, pointing to the two fabric bags hanging on the back of her door.

"Oh one is my wedding dress and one is my kimono for the Feudal Era wedding," she replied.

"Can I see it?"

"Nope you have to wait until the wedding."

"Just a quick look," Inuyasha said, letting go of Kagome.

"Inuyasha if you touch that bag I will sit you into the basement," Kagome said quickly, panicking.

Inuyasha froze, turning toward Kagome. "Once we get married, you have to remove these stupid beads."

"Absolutely not."

"Why not! It's not fair that you can create a hole in the ground," he said irritably.

"It's the only way to level the playing field when it comes to your demon speed and strength and hearing," she replied, walk out of her room. "Come on Inuyasha, it's time for dinner." Inuyasha followed after her, mumbling about stupid wenches and removing spells. 'Maybe Kaede will take it off,' he thought.


After dinner…

Kagome laid her head on Inuyasha's chest, listening to his slow steady heartbeat. She knew that she should get to sleep, she had a long day ahead of her, but she couldn't fall asleep. Even though her eyes were closed, she knew Inuyasha was still awake also; his body hadn't fully relaxed yet. "Hey Inuyasha," Kagome said softly, looking up at him.

"Hm," he replied, his eyes still closed.

"How come you aren't sleeping?"

"Because you're talking wench," he said, smirking.

"Inuyasha," she said threateningly.

"I'm just thinking about everything, about tomorrow."

"Nervous?"

"Of course not," he said, opening his eyes to look at her. "More like….ready to be there. I wanna be watching you walk down the aisle right now." Kagome had made Inuyasha watch her parents' wedding video one night with her as pre-wedding preparation. She figured showing him the entire wedding would be easier than trying to explain every step to him. "Why are you still awake?"

"I'm nervous, but in a good way. Nervous and anxious and excited; I don't think I'll be able to fall asleep at all tonight," she sighed.

"I can think of a way to relax you," Inuyasha said mischievously, his hand skimming the skin that had been exposed when her shirt rode up slightly.

"Inuyasha," Kagome said softly, half a reprimand, half a plea. Inuyasha kissed her softly, wrapping his arms around her tightly. Kagome melted against him, her arms reaching up to wrap around his neck. Inuyasha growled slightly as Kagome nipped at his lips, his hands on her waist tightening slightly. 'Kissing Inuyasha is definitely my new favorite hobby,' she thought as Inuyasha rolled them over, lying on top of her.

Inuyasha slowly kissed down Kagome's neck, thanking kami that his demon hearing allowed him to pick up on every little sound Kagome made. Every quicken breath, every surprised gasp, every pleasure filled whimper. His fangs trailed slowly up and down Kagome's neck, his fingertips feeling the goose bumps that broke out across her skin. "Cold?" he asked with a smirk, moving his head to look up at Kagome.

"Yes, maybe you could warm me up," Kagome said with a devilish grin. She grabbed onto the front of his haori, pulling him closer to her as her lips crashed into his.

Inuyasha kissed her gently before pulling away from her, rolling her both of them onto their side. "You didn't do anything," Inuyasha said, answering the unanswered question in her eyes. He shook his head as the worry left Kagome's eyes, wondering why she doubted herself so much. "But we need to calm down a bit or I'm going to claim you now."

Kagome blushed slightly, wrapping an arm around his body. "I think it's time for bed then." She covered them both with the blanket, yawning softly. "I love you."

"Love you too wench," Inuyasha replied, kissing the top of her head. He closed his eyes, listening as Kagome's breathing deepened, finally drifting to sleep. 'Everything is going to change tomorrow,' he thought. 'Finally; it took long enough to come.'


We're in the home stretch readers! Inuyasha and Kagome are almost to the altar but there might be a few bumps along the way to spice things up. The wedding will be split into a bunch of different chapters because a) there's a lot going on and b) it's fluff-tastic (yes i just made that up lol)

Keep reviewing i appreciate it!
