"Wake up, girl!" Kagome looked up from the bed and groaned. She looked at the clock. "4? Inu Yasha!" she moaned angrily and reached for the covers, which were taken away.

"Come on, we have a meeting!" he said. She saw he was more miserable than she. She gotn up and stretched. He tossed a beautiful blue kimono with red roses on it onto her lap.

"Put this on" She gapped at it. He glared at her. "What, too ugly for you? It's all I got right now, so deal with it!"

"It's…beautiful! Where did you get this?" there was a short silence. "My mom" her eyes widened. The queen had died from a horrible sickness years ago. "Sorry"

"Don't say that!" he barked, making her jump. His face softened at her scared look and he sighed, sitting next to her on the bed.

"Don't say sorry unless you mean it, k?" she nodded, smiling. "Promise" suddenly they heard a disgusted snort from the doorway. They looked to see Miroku and Sango shaking their heads at them.

"Dude, that's lame. What's next, pinky promises? Oh wait, can't do that, physical contact there. And you two sleep in the same bed? For that matter, you're engaged?!" Sango nodded.

"True. I mean, you have trouble holding her hand. In some ways, it's cute!"

"Yes, keeping your love to yourselves. I expect many children in this house-"

Kagome and Inu Yasha tackled him and started beating the living shit out of him. Once they were done Kagome went to get changed.

Inu Yasha paced outside the doorway impatiently. He wore his usual red outfit. The door finally opened and his eyes widened. She looked beautiful in it. Her hair was in a braid over her shoulder. She started down the stairs and tripped. She yelped as Inu Yasha caught her just before she hurt herself. He frowned.

"Remember how I said it was my MOTHER'S?" She blushed and nodded.

"So-ok" he smirked and she smiled. He helped her up and sighed as Sesshomaru walked down. He glared at Inu Yasha, then at Kagome and muttered something incomprehensible. They could have sworn they heard the words `Kill' and `Sleep' but they chose to ignore it. Suddenly a tall guy-probably around Inu Yasha's height-came rushing down the stairs. And when I say guy, I mean huge toad. He ran out the door.

"Who was that?"

"Never seen him before" Suddenly 2 guards-wolves actually-ran out after him. "JAKEN!" the shouted and started running after him. The two shrugged and Inu Yasha helped her out the door and into the carriage.

-+-

"So what's the meeting about?" Kagome asked as the carriage started moving. He sighed lightly.

"Well, there's this big argument between the wolf demon tribe-who live in the eastern lands-on where the border should be between them and the humans in the south. They've been killing many humans and they come here to discuss it." Kagome looked at him with a raised eyebrow. He sighed.

"There are four kingdoms in this region-the northern lands, owned by a demon named Naraku, the eastern lands owned by Prince Kouga, the southern lands owned by a scrawny dense human named Hojo, and the western lands owned by my dad" she nodded. "There hasn't been any trouble on the boundaries, but the wolf tribe wants to know what their limits are and the humans don't want to get killed by them." She nodded.

"I get it" she said smiling. He smirked and glanced down at her. She was looking out the window of the carriage. She grinned and grabbed his collar, pulling his face next to hers. "What the-"

"Look, the sun's rising! Isn't it pretty?!" he watched as the sun slowly began to rise, with a few clouds in the sky. He smiled. It was pretty. He nodded and turned, his lips a centimeter from her cheek. He blushed and pulled back, looking out his window. She didn't notice much. She smiled. He glanced at her from the corner of his eye. A small smile appeared on his face.

Kagome took her seat next to Inu Yasha at the enormous table. It was a huge circle with a few chairs around it. Sesshomaru sat next to his brother as he was supposed to, and on his other side was his father. Then was a brown haired boy who was staring at Kagome with wide eyes and a little drool. It made her feel a LITTLE uncomfortable.

Next to him was a man with purple hair, also staring at Kagome. He smirked. Kagome felt more than a little uncomfortable. He looked and she sensed he was evil. He had a girl on each side of him, chains around their necks. She presumed them his secretary or daughters or something. One was a little girl who was all white wearing a white kimono with a white flower in her hair. In contrast to her appearance, she had black eyes. The other girl had red eyes and brown hair. She wore a red and blue kimono.

Suddenly the door burst open. The two wolves from that morning bowed down.

"Kouga cannot be here this morning due to an overly sickening cold" they heard a loud, painful sneeze in the distance, making them all wince.

"Now was that the cold or us talking about him?" the king asked, his normal smile planted on his face. The two shrugged and put down a video recorder.

"He will listen to the conversation and within the first month will respond" with that they left. All stared at the video recorder uncomfortably. Finally Inu Yasha took it and muttered something nobody could comprehend into the thing before shutting it off. All sighed relief and began to talk freely. Except Sesshomaru who sat there listening to everyone all at once.

"First off I'd like to say my son is getting married to Kagome!"

"Kagome?"

"Who's that?"

"Never heard of her"

Kagome blushed and frowned. They looked at her knowingly. She huffed. Inu Yasha jabbed her in the ribs with his elbow a little too hard.

"OW! What the hell was that for?"

"Idiot!"

"What did I do?"

"Everything!"

"Moron!"

"Baka!"

"Jackass"

The council watched strangely. The king broke out into a smile. "Well then. Aren't they the perfect couple?" everyone nodded. They stopped and blushed, sitting back down.

"Now that that's done, let's get this over and done with" Inu Yasha mumbled. Kagome glared at him and he glared back.

`What a jerk! How am I supposed to spend the next…wait, how long is it until the wedding?'

"In three months they'll be walking down the altar."

"3 MONTHS?!" both looked unbelievably surprised. He nodded. "Of course. The sooner the better! Now stop making disruptions!" both gapped at him, then at each other, then sat and huffed.

The meeting, which I refuse to describe do to how boring it was, lasted forever and ever. Inu Yasha and Kagome would bicker against each other until Sesshomaru threatened to cut off their toes and make them eat them with huge globs of sour cream and 4-week old expired milk. Which shut not only them up, but the entire council.

"Dude, you are SO annoying! I don't know how I'm going to last even 3 months!" Kagome groaned. She had changed into some more comfortable clothes and was presently laying on her back on Inu Yasha's bed. He huffed.

"Not my fault you decided this stupid arrangement!"

"YOU'RE the one who caused it!"

"No, you are!"

"Bitch!"

"I know you are but what am I?"

"I know you are but what am I?"

"ASS!"

"BITCH!"

And so the insults continued for a full thirty minutes, when Sango and Miroku came in, prying the two into different rooms. Sango and Kagome stayed in that one while Miroku dragged Inu Yasha to another one.

"I CAN'T STAND HIM (HER)!!!" both said to their comrades.

*

Miroku tried to calm Inu Yasha.

"You love each other! You're getting married in three months!

*

Sango was trying the same thing.

"Come on, Kagome. I thought you loved him! You're getting married in three months!"

"Yea, but still! I don't know how I could have fallen for such an-"

*

"Immature, whining-"

*

"stubborn, horrible-"

*

"greedy, stupid-"

*

"Disgraceful, mangey-"

*

"Vile ugly HICK!"

*

"Disgusting rancid TORTISE!"

With that, Kagome and Inu Yasha walked out the doors, slamming them behind them. Sango and Miroku both had the same thoughts.

`How in the world could they possible be in love?'

-+-

Kagome walked through the door, dragging a huge bucket of paint and a brush. Inu Yasha growled. "What do you want, wench?"

"That's easy!" she said and stopped dragging it, panting. She opened it and dipped the paintbrush inside. It was pure white. She started to draw a line between the room. "YO! HEY! THIS IS MY ROOM!"

"Down boy, it's not permanent. I figure you should have your little girlfriend within two months, when this will disappear! See?" he looked at the can. Sure enough, it said in bold letters- NON ALCOHALIC-PAINT WEARS AWAY WITHIN 2 MONTHS-DON'T WORRY ABOUT YOUR LOVE TRIANGLE PROBLEMS, JUST USE THE GOD DAMN PAINT' Inu Yasha nodded and watched as she drew a line up as far as she could reach. She growled in frustration as she piled up the clothes.

"Damn filthy room!" she cussed. She looked around. "You wouldn't happen to have-"

"Oh, right here" he took out a pair of shoes with what looked like huge suction cups on the bottom. "Thank you" she said and started walking up the wall. Inu Yasha held up the paint. Miroku walked in as she reached the ceiling.

"Hey Inu Yasha I-hey there Kagome, mind untucking your shirt? Hehehe…" he received an empty metal can falling onto his head for an answer.

"There" she said, hopping down and taking off the suction cup things. "Now get on your side!"

"What are you talking about? The bed is on this side! I'm staying here!"

"You're an engaged couple! You're supposed to SHARE a bed!" Sango entered the conversation. Both sighed and told them of their ingenious plan. They understood why the two were so not coupleish to each other.

"Back to our fight, that's the entire point!" Kagome said, glaring at him.

"No, there is no way that I'm giving up MY bed to a wench like you!"

THAT NIGHT…

"I cannot believe I'm giving up MY bed to a wench like you!"

Inu Yasha lay on a couch he had brought inside while Kagome lay snuggled up inside his bed. She smiled happily. "Thank you HONEY, goodnight!" she turned over and closed her eyes. Inu Yasha sighed and glanced at her from the corner of his eye. He shook his head and went to sleep.
