Kagome kept shooting discreet glances at Sesshomaru at the reception. This didn't escape Ayame and she pointed it out to Kagome.

"I told him." Kagome admitted shyly as the two secluded themselves by the table housing the cake. Ayame grinned at her friend and then glanced at the sleek watch she was wearing on her wrist. Sango and Miroku were due to leave in a few minutes and hopefully before the hour was up Kagome could have her own celebration.

"Tell you what. Tonight's special for you two so I'm not going to say anything if you duck out early. Just make sure you leave after the newlyweds though." With a smile and a nod, Kagome agreed.
