They pulled up to the old church; it looked more like a castle than a church. Kagome sighed as Sesshomaru turned off his car; she had been staring out the window the whole time, never saying a word to him.

"Miko,"

"Hm?" She turned to look at him,

"Are you ready to go in?"

Kagome looked back at the church "Yeah, guess so." She wasn't in the mood.

Kagome and Sesshomaru got out of the car. "You should have let me open your door,"

Kagome snapped her eyes to him, looking at him as if she had seen a Naraku. "You want to open my door?" She asked, confused, oh how he wanted to roll his eyes,

"I do have my pride and honor, Miko; I am not a thug."

Kagome calmed her face. "Oh, right, sorry," Mixing the past and the future was wild. Part of her wanted to pinch herself to make sure she wasn't dreaming.

"Shall we proceed inside?"

Kagome looked up at the towering church. "Yes." At least she wasn't dateless. But this definitely wasn't a date.

They walked to the doors and waited behind a line of people to get in.

"I take it this friend of yours is of high status?"

"Yes, rich father," Kagome answered while looking at everyone around her. Kids were running around; teens were talking to one another, and couples were arm in arm, smiling, talking to other couples, kissing, blushing. Kagome would hide it, but she wished she could be blushing for that reason. Her love life had been stolen, or so she thought. The doors of the church opened, and people started to walk in; Sesshomaru offered his arm. Kagome looked at him, then his arm; it was odd. Kagome placed her hand on his arm right above his elbow. Her hand was very small; he took note, and to think at one time, those hands held a powerful bow, with powerful arrows, and those tiny hands were the ones shooting those said arrows.

They made their way inside the church and walked down the isle to find a seat. Kagome giggled, and at a funny thought, Sesshomaru looked down at her. "Something funny, Miko?"

"This is the first time I've walked down an aisle, and im walking down it with you," it was funny and weird to her, never in her wild dreams. But this would happen to her, wouldn't it?

"I do not see how this is funny," He didn't carry the same sense of humor as she did. She looked at him "Really, you dont see how this is funny?"

He looked ahead to the alter and then down at her "I could see how it is odd, maybe Ironic but not funny."

Kagome turned from him when her name was called "Kagome, Kagome over here,"

Kagome sighed a sigh of stress; she kinda forgot the whole hanging with friends thing. When Sesshomaru had told her in the car that he would join her at the wedding she was shocked but was unable to say anything; instead, she went to look out his window.

"Do you plan on ignoring your friends Miko?"

"Uh, no,"

Sesshomaru walked toward the said friends and stopped, letting Kagome sit first, and then he sat himself down.

"Kagome, I thought you were going to cut your hair short," The girl next to her stated, Sesshomaru was not looking at them, but he was paying attention to details.

"Yeah, I thought about it," Kagome touched her hair. " I don't know if I can part with it,"

"Never mind that who is the guy?" The girl one down asked, looking at Sesshomaru,

"Oh, this is Sesshomaru," He looked at the girls. "He's my-

"Date," He spoke quickly, and she could not believe he just said that, but she was surely going to go with it; it would sound lame to correct him after all. Tecnalty he was.

Kagome's friends blushed and giggled; Kagome turned and looked forward; she also elbowed Sesshomaru in the ribs, something she never thought she would do.

Sesshomaru smirked, but it was sly; no one saw it. The music started, and the groom and the men of honor walked out. The flowers were beautiful and all white and there were a lot. Kagome looked all around inside, she was sighing, such a beautiful wedding. Sesshomaru took note of her state. Did she really like and dislike weddings this much? He could tell there was no romance in her life at all.

Soon the bride's march started, and everyone stood up and turned to watch the girl walk down the aisle. Kagome could not help but clasp her hands together and smile big, this really was every girl's dream, and every unmarried girl had their hands clasped, a smile on their face and hearts in their eyes, but Sesshomaru was only looking at her. Kagome's eyes followed the bride's as she made her way down to her soon-to-be husband. Once she arrived, everyone was seated. Kagome sat and watched; Sesshomaru kept his eyes on the bride and groom, then down at her, and so on.

"I do," The man said as he looked into his bride's eyes,

"I do," said the girl, looking back at him with a smile and a blush,

"Then you may kiss your bride!"

The couple kissed; it was quick and shy but sweet all the same.

But then her smile faded as she thought back to Miroku's and Sango's wedding; she really wished she had not missed it. They, after all, were her best friends, even more so than the friends that she grew up with. Kagome looked down at her shoes and thought back to her and Inuyasha's relationship, then it hit her as she watched couples start to head to the reception: she had missed something about her relationship with Inuyasha at her young age and the thing she missed, was that they never had a relationship.
