Rin looked at the grave in front of her. She was told that it was the grave of her other grandfather- Kagome's daddy. She wasn't sure what to say but followed her new mother's instructions and prayed. A while later she felt a tug on her hand and turned to see Mrs. Higurashi gesturing for her to head back down the hill. She followed her watching as her father and Kagome stayed.
"Thank you." Kagome was startled by the sudden sound and glanced towards Sesshomaru to see him talking to the grave.
"I know that I was supposed to have asked you before I decided to court your daughter and marry her but I hope you understand why I could not. Instead, I can assure you that I will take care of her and love her. I want your blessing Otou-sama, and I hope that you will offer it to the two of us."
Kagome held up a hand to her mouth as the tears flew down her cheeks. She'd known Sesshomaru was caring and sweet but this was beyond words. She'd only known her father as a child but she couldn't help but feel that at this moment he was smiling down on her and telling her she had made a good choice. Wiping her tears, she held out a hand to her fiancé who took it with a smile.
