A.N. I’m so happy! This story is going great… the single good thing in my life right now! Whoot! Anyway. This week will be my major update week, I’ll do it as much as possible, but next week it’ll be back to the once a week updates… if even that much.
“I do believe I’ve fallen in love with you.”

“I have a confession myself Mr. Taisho,” Kagome whispered, bringing InuYasha closer to her, “I know I’ve fallen in love with you.”

-One Week Later-

“So you just straight out admitted that you’ve fallen for him?” Sango asked Kagome, incredulous that her friend would do that kind of act.

“Yeah,” Kagome said with a giggle, taking a bite of her salad, “he was really… ecstatic if you know what I mean.”

Sango laughed, throwing a crouton at her friend, “so are you guys going to try and have a baby?”

Kagome nodded, smiling softly, “yeah we are. But InuYasha thinks we should go to the doctor and find out when the best times are… not that we aren’t going to try on our own… but yeah. It’s best to know and then we’ll go back in a few days afterwards to find out.”

“Why don’t you just try invetro?” Sango asked.

“I’m not having a baby made in a Petri dish,” Kagome replied hotly, “besides, it’s much more… natural to do it the old fashioned way.”

“Whatever,” Sango said with a smirk, “you’ve just turned into a sex-aholic.”

Kagome giggled, “maybe.”

*Miso*
“So she’s trying to have a baby huh?” he said to himself as he snapped some pictures of Kagome with a small pen camera, “well that’ll definitely go in the article. Especially because I gathered the info that she might not be able to.”

Miso grinned as he wrote down some notes about Kagome, before taking a few more pictures. He didn’t understand why Naraku wanted so many, especially when Kagome wasn’t with InuYasha, but her friend… the one that told the media about her ‘engagement’ to InuYasha Taisho.

-Ring Ring-

“Hey boss,” Miso said into the phone, getting up to leave, “I got the stuff. And some more info.”

“Good. I did my interview,” Naraku drawled on the other line, “the way she refused to answer a few questions leaves me to believe that they are true. Although I know for a fact that she is indeed married to Taisho.”

“Why do I need more pictures of her?” Miso asked, knowing that he wouldn’t get a straight answer anyway.

“Because we never know when she’s going to do something,” Naraku explained, clearly annoyed, “now get back here and start the article. I expect you to have the three page spread done by Wednesday with color pictures. I will pick those myself.”

“Right,” Miso said, hopping into his little truck and driving off, not realizing he was being watched.

With InuYasha

“So little brother. You’ve decided that you and Kagome want a baby?” Sesshoumaru asked InuYasha as they met Miroku for lunch and a ‘meeting.’

“Yeah,” he replied, a smirk on his face, “we are. But… I said we should see a doctor so that we’ll know when the time is perfect and all that other shit.”

Sesshoumaru looked at him, “because you want to plan out the days you can make love to your fiancé. That’s not going to make it any better.”

“Shut up,” InuYasha barked, “that’s not it. Because the doctor said that it’d be hard to have a child we have to take extra precautions. Kagome want’s a baby, and so do I.”

“You are not the fatherly type,” Miroku said, walking up to the brother’s table.

“Sure I am,” InuYasha said with a grin, “I’m great with kids. I’d make a great dad.”

“And I’m the queen of England,” Sesshoumaru remarked before giving the waiter his order, “give me a iced tea, sweet with lemon.”

“I’m not surprised that you are,” InuYasha stated, replying to his brothers comment, “I’ll have a coke.”

Miroku grinned, “water for me. You two are stupid.”

InuYasha kicked him under the table, “but yeah. The reason I said for this lunch is because Kagome and I started talking and we are going to plan the wedding.”

“What wedding?” Miroku and Sesshoumaru asked at the same time.

“Our wedding,” InuYasha replied, surprised that Sesshoumaru never knew about him and Kagome already being married.

“Well I don’t know what I have to do with it,” Sesshoumaru remarked, taking a sip of his just brought tea.

“You are my brother,” InuYasha replied, “well almost, and the only living family I have left so you are going to be in it whether you like it or not. Miroku you’re more of a brother than the popsicle, and I would really like you to be the best man. I sound like such a jackass, being all nice and shit but still. This is important, I didn’t think this would ever happen to me. Especially with Kagome, knowing how she was when we were younger and all.”

Miroku grinned, “hell yeah I’ll be the best man. I’m not surprised at all that you and Kagome are getting married. Remember you had such a crush on her in high school after she beat that guy up?”

InuYasha grinned, “that was so hot. But…”

“She’s really toned down,” Miroku finished, “I know what happened between her and that football star. It’s horrible, and don’t be surprised if he crashes the wedding.”

InuYasha nodded, “he wont. We’re hiring security to cover the place in case he does, I’ll beat him to a inch of his life if he manages to slip by us.”

Miroku smirked, “that’s a little far. Just put him in the ICU and leave it at that. He’ll recover in time for the next football season.”

InuYasha laughed, “that’s hilarious. You’re a real piece of work you know.”

Miroku smiled, “I know. Now… what are you going to do for the honeymoon.”

“I was thinking… Venice,” InuYasha replied, “it’d be perfect. Romantic for Kagome, no where for her to run… unless she’s a good swimmer, I should check that, and plenty to do because she’ll take her ‘baby’ along and waste about $300 in film.”

Kagome and Sango

“Where are we?” Sango asked as Kagome pulled up to a small shop with no windows and a black steel door.

“To my surprise for you,” Kagome replied with a grin, walking up to the door and knocking once.

As the door opened Sango gasped. Inside there were many different types of dresses, from wedding dresses to bridesmaid dresses to dresses for children.

“Kagome,” Sango breathed, “are you guys…”

“Yup,” Kagome said with a wide grin, “we decided that we’re going to start planning a wedding.”

Sango grinned, hugging her friend tightly, “when are you wanting to do it?”

“Soon,” Kagome said with a grin, “well not really soon, before the end of the year. We’re going to do it all fast, and it’s not going to be big, but small but there’ll be a spread in the magazine. I’m having one of my more experienced interns do the photo’s and we’ll see how it’ll go. It’s going to be amazing, and we have to get you a maid of honors dress along with a bridesmaids dress for Rin.”

“So you’re going to plan it and then settle a date after you’ve figured out when you want it to be?” Sango asked as her and Kagome looked through a rack of bridesmaids dresses.

“Yeah,” Kagome replied, pulling out a simple but elegant blue dress with a small amount of lace and sparkles that would be about ankle length. “Try this on, if it’ll look good on you then it will Rin too. Call me when you have it, I’m going to look some more.”

Sango nodded, grumbling about something as Kagome went to find another dress or two. She came back with a burgundy short sleeved dress with a fluffy skirt and a corset style bodice with glitter and piping all around, and a sea green number that stopped just below the knees with no straps or lace, just sheen.

“Okay I found two more dresses,” Kagome said, just as Sango came out of the dressing room, “that looks nice, but let’s try these other ones.”

Sango nodded, taking the two dresses into the room and trying them both on. After Kagome fixed the corset on the last one she was happy, it was the perfect dress.

“Okay,” that’ll be your maid of honor dress, “I want you and Rin to have different dresses so I’m going to order the green one in the same color and then I’ll find me one.”

Sango smiled, putting her clothes back on and putting her dress on the hanger, “I hope you’re not too expensive. I’ll never wear you again.”

After Sango paid for her dress, Kagome ordered Rin’s, they started looking for a wedding dress.

“What about this one?” Sango asked, holding up a off white strapless dress with white floral designs on the cinched bodice and full skirt, “it’s beautiful and you’d look amazing in it.”

Kagome smiled, “it really is isn’t it? I like it, but it’s too big. -ruffles through rack- And they don’t have a smaller size.”

“How about this,” Sango said, “because it’s not much bigger than you, we’ll try it on, and then go to a tailor. I’m sure they can brink it in, especially because there’s only like what.. Maybe two inches to be taken in at the most.”

Kagome nodded, and went to try the dress on, “it looks good on me… I’ll get it tailored. Then we’ll go from there.”

Sango grinned, “wow. All in one day you got the dresses for the wedding and now you just have to get the rest of it done.”

“I know,” Kagome groaned, “it’s going to be so much stress. Just what I don’t need, last thing for me now is to collapse again.”

Sango nodded, not surprised in the least to hear her friend passed out from exhaustion again, “you need to take better care of yourself.”

“I try,” Kagome replied, backing out of the store to take Sango home, “but InuYasha wont let me take care of myself. He is so obsessed with my health that he takes it in his own liberty to treat me like a five year old. I’m surprised he didn’t call me already. It’s been 3 hours and he hasn’t, I’m proud.”

Sango laughed, “I’m sure. But what month are you thinking?”

“October,” Kagome replied, “it’s perfect. Not to hot, not to cold. Just right, it’ll be from twilight till whenever you want to go home. I’m hoping we’ll be able to do it at the shrine because of all the forestry and stuff that’ll make it beautiful at that time. And the light’ll be perfect.”

“You’re insane,” Sango replied, “but it’s nice.”

Kagome laughed, “I don’t like this feeling. Like… my stomach is in knots and I get all excited and jittery when I’m around Yash. I never feel like this.”

“You’re in love,” Sango said with a grin, “I feel like that when I’m with Miroku.”

“No you feel like that because you like him touching you,” Kagome said with a grin, “but anyway. Behave and when am I getting a godchild?”

Sango laughed and got out of the car, “soon enough. We’re just kind of being careful right now because Miroku started that new job, and wants to settle into it before we do anything.”

Kagome nodded, “well I’m going to go home. I have a lot to do and I still have to tell Rin. Man am I tired too! God I hate this, I‘m always freaking tired.”

Sango nodded and went into her house as Kagome drove off, “I hope she’s okay with what’s going on.”

3 Weeks Later

“Don’t you think October is a little soon?” InuYasha asked Kagome, staring at the planner she made up, “I mean it’s already January and that’s not a whole lot of time.”

“It’s a long time Yash,” Kagome said snidely, “Like you said, it’s January. That’s giving ten months to figure the whole thing out. Besides how long does it take to pick up tux’s?” she asked.

“About 15 minutes,” InuYasha replied, “why?”

“I already picked out the dresses,” Kagome replied, “Rin’s came in and fits perfectly, mines been tailored. I still think the perfect place to have it would be at the shrine, grandpa is ordained so he can marry us and we’d just have to worry about music and food.”

“Why don’t we do it at our house?” InuYasha asked.

“Here?” she asked, “that would be nice.”

“No,” InuYasha said, pulling Kagome out of the chair she was sitting in to wrap her in a hug, “the house I had built for us that was just finished.”

“The what?” she asked, looking up at him.

“You heard me,” InuYasha said with a grin, “I had it built when you moved here and now it’s done. I had people coming in round the clock to finish it by spring but they were lucky and finished really early. Excruciatingly early actually… I commissioned the project about less than four months ago.”

“I LOVE YOU!” Kagome squealed, throwing her arms around his neck before kissing him deeply on the lips.

“I know,” InuYasha replied, pulling her to the bed, “and since I gave you a big gift. I want one myself.”

Kagome laughed, crawling into InuYasha’s lap before straddling his thighs, “I guess. Since you asked so nicely.”

InuYasha grinned as Kagome leaned in and kissed him.

-BANG BANG!-

“What the hell,” he groaned, “are we on camera or something? Every time we get started, them bastards have to ruin it.”

Kagome laughed, “it’s not that bad. We have the night… and we can ‘work from home’ if we have to.”

InuYasha grinned and opened the door, “what do you want.”

“Look,” Rin said, holding up a magazine, it was Kagome and InuYasha on the cover holding hand’s in the mall not long after Kagome moved in with him.

InuYasha groaned and quickly turned to the page with the ‘special’ and read aloud;
“In today’s fashion industry it isn’t all about the models and the clothes. It’s mostly about the photographer. Here in Japan, our highest rising photography star would be the young and beautiful Kagome Higurashi. Born to a family of shrine keepers, Ms. Higurashi changed her destiny by becoming a professional photographer by the time she was 18. Now, at 22 she is the head photographer of the famous Tokyo Fashion Times, owned by none other than her husband InuYasha Taisho. Yes I said husband. It turned out that Ms. Higurashi and Mr. Taisho are truly Mr. and Mrs. InuYasha Taisho, and have been married for quite some time. They are already the country’s it couple, and now they’re working on being the country’s it FAMILY. Yes, the Taisho’s are hoping to have a baby, but due to a anonymous source, Mrs. Taisho might not be able to conceive a child due to ‘stress’ and a battered uterus. -show‘s picture of Kagome in the hospital- We also have from a source that Kagome’s problem might be from a abusive relationship she had while dating college football stat Kouga Lin. Is this true? We’re not sure, but when asked about the situation Kagome preferred not to comment…

“Who the hell wrote this?” InuYasha roared, staring at a old picture of Kagome and Kouga kissing after a big game he won.

“The reporter’s name is Miso Suigami,” Kagome replied, looking at the magazine, “how’d they get that picture of me and you, or me in the hospital?”

“I don’t know,” InuYasha replied, “but I’m suing the hospital for leaking your private information, along with this Miso person.”
Kagome nodded and quickly pulled out her cell phone, “Yes I’d like to speak with Sango Hauk please. -pause- Tell her it’s Kagome. -pause- Yes I’ll hold.”

InuYasha stared at her, surprised that the first person she’d call is Sango.

“Hey Sango,” Kagome said brightly in the phone, “you seen the papers? -pause- The one called The Journal, -long pause- Yeah I want to sui this Miso Suigami, you’ll represent me right? -pause- Thanks, yeah I’ll be there in 30 minutes.”

“What the hell?” InuYasha asked as Kagome grabbed her purse and key’s and started for the door.

“Didn’t you know Sango was a lawyer?” Kagome asked him as she was about to leave.

“No,” he said, surprised to hear about this.

“Well she’s now our attorney,” Kagome replied with a grin before kissing him lightly, “I’ll be back soon.”

InuYasha stared as she drove off, “that woman is insane.” The second he got in the house the house phone started to ring, “hello? -pause- NO I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.”

And so the day went, with reporters coming to the house and calling him, InuYasha was more than happy when Sesshoumaru told him it wasn’t illegal to take the phone off the jack and not answer the phone.

Four Hours Later

“Kagome what took so long?” InuYasha asked when she got home.

“We worked up the whole case,” Kagome started, “considering it’s not illegal to write what he did, we had to go and make it a case of him stalking me. So now we need a warrant to search his office and home and confiscate anything that seems suspicious, along with his computer, cell phone, and cameras.”

InuYasha nodded, “what about the hospital?”

“That’s another case,” Kagome said sadly, “and unfortunately there isn’t’ another lawyer I trust. So we have to wait until this one is done before we do anything else. The next time I have a meeting with Sango you’re coming with me because we have been ‘outed’ and you are my spouse so you’re required to be there.”

InuYasha nodded, hugging her tightly, “I’m sorry the whole thing Kagome. I know you didn’t want a lot of people knowing about you’re… problem.”

“It’s okay,” she said, but he could tell she was crying, he felt the tears on his shirt, “I just can’t believe a hospital doctor would tell a reporter that.”

InuYasha nodded, kissing her head before leading her up to their room, “C’mon. let’s get some sleep and we’ll figure EVERYTHING out tomorrow.”

Kagome nodded, allowing InuYasha to help her get ready for bed, and instantly curled into his body when he layed down next to her.

“I love you InuYasha,” she whispered, kissing his bear chest.

“I love you Kagome.”
