InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Silver Tears and Puppy Ears ❯ A Shocking Wedding Present ( Chapter 17 )

A shocking Wedding Present

Kagome smiled as she said goodbye to her friends as they left. Inu Yasha immediately took Kaede back to the feudal era because the poor woman was exhausted. Katsumi was glad that the wedding had gone so well, now it was time for the big surprise. As soon as Inu Yasha came back she would show it to them. Souta was sitting on the ground playing with Shippo, knowing he had to enjoy the time he had with his sister and her family while he could. Kagome had told him what would happen once they all finally went back to the feudal era. He had tried his best not to show just how upset it made him but when she hugged him, he cried. It reminded him of how he felt when she had fallen into the well the first time, and he had been afraid he would never see her again. Now he knew, that he had limited time with her. Shippo began to fuss because Souta had stopped paying attention him. Souta quickly began playing with him, the little baby had some lungs on him, and it killed his ears when he cried. He could only imagine what it did to Kagome and Inu Yasha when Shippo cried. Kagome walked over to her brother and sat down in a chair near him.

"You know mom isn't gonna be happy that your sitting on the ground in your new suit" Kagome teased. She was amazed at how big he had gotten. She missed a lot of him growing up by never really spending any time at home. She was either in school or in the feudal era. Souta stuck out his tongue at Kagome and went back to playing with Shippo.

Inu Yasha said goodbye to Kaede and jumped back into the well. Katsumi was waiting outside of the well house when he came out. Kagome was sitting with Shippo and Souta. Ji-Chan was harassing Sango and Miroku…his favorite targets lately. Katsumi waited for Inu Yasha to go over to Kagome before she approached them. She held the envelope tightly in her hand behind her back. She watched Inu Yasha sit in a chair next to Kagome and take Shippo from Souta. She took a deep breath and walked over to her daughter. Kagome looked up at her and smiled.

"Kagome" Katsumi said warmly as she sat down.

"Hai Mama" Kagome replied.

"I have a surprise for you and Inu Yasha" Katsumi said brightly. Upon hearing his name, Inu Yasha looked up at Katsumi.

"Really what is it" Kagome asked excited.

"Well its normal for a couple to go on a honeymoon after their wedding, and I thought that it would be good if you got to have one with Inu Yasha" Katsumi began. Kagome's eyes widened as she listened to her mother, Inu Yasha just looked very confused… `What was a honey moon, he hoped it wasn't as bad as the new moon'

"I realize that wherever you go, you will have to take precautions so I went with somewhere that you have always wanted to go" Katsumi said to Kagome. Kagome tried her best to stay calm as her mother explained.

"So it might not be much, but I know that you have wanted to go to Hawaii, and luckily I was able to get a friend of mine who owns a private jet, to agree to fly you and I've booked a suite in a Marriot there for you"

Kagome squealed and hugged her mother. Inu Yasha was still confused, but judging by Kagome's reaction whatever it was, was a good thing.

"What's going on?" Sango asked as she walked over.

"We're going to Hawaii" Kagome said happily.

"What's Hawaii?" Sango asked.

"It's a place, a really nice place, and you and Miroku are coming" Kagome said.

"What about me?" Inu Yasha asked sadly.

"Its our honeymoon, of course your coming!" Kagome practically shouted.

"So when do we leave?" Kagome asked her mother.

"Tomorrow afternoon" Katsumi said,

"But what about packing, clothes… there's so much" Kagome began to ramble.

"Kagome, you and your friends can go tomorrow morning and shop relax" Katsumi laughed.

"Don't, forgot, you have your first doctor's appointment in a week, so you'll have to come back in 7 days" Katsumi reminded.

"Oh of course Mama, not like Inu Yasha would let me miss the appointment anyway" Kagome said.

"Damn right I wouldn't" Inu Yasha said arrogantly.

The next morning Kagome quickly dressed Shippo and dragged everyone out of bed to shop.

"Kagome its 5 in the morning" Inu Yasha groaned as he got into her car.

"Yes, and all the store in Tokyo are open at 6" Kagome said.

"But, that's not for another hour" Inu Yasha whined.

"Yes, but the bakery, is open at 5, and I'm in the mood for a muffin" Kagome pouted.

"It takes an hour to get a muffin?" Inu Yasha growled.

"Of course not, but it takes 20 minutes to get to the bakery, and then we're all going to get breakfast, which should take at least a half hour, and that's 50 minutes, 10 minutes from then, all the stores are open" Kagome said, smiling at winning the argument. Inu Yasha groaned and gave up. He was foolish to try and understand or argue with a pregnant woman. The rest of the morning went along smoothly, they got breakfast like Kagome planned, and even Inu Yasha admitted it was a good idea to go so early, everything was just baked and tasted really good. Both he and Shippo loved the way the place smelt. The other good part about going so early was that it wasn't crowded in the stores while they shopped. They were back to the house by 11:00, leaving them an hour to pack before they had to leave for the plane.

Souta sat in the kitchen complaining about why he should get to go to Hawaii with his sister while they waited for them to finish packing. It was hard for Kagome because she had to keep running around the upstairs to make sure everyone had everything they needed. Inu Yasha was shocked at how many different things Kagome had bought to cover their ears. The only thing he liked was that he got to choose his instead of wearing those ridiculous hats Kagome used to give him.

"We're all packed and ready to go" Kagome yelled down the stairs. She had two of the suitcases, and Inu Yasha had two more, and Miroku had the fifth. Sango followed with the baby.

"Okay, let's go, come on hurry up, we're ahead five minutes" Katsumi yelled as they piled into the car. Kagome hugged Souta goodbye and then got into the car. The ride to the airport consisted mostly of Kagome and Katsumi explaining airplanes to Inu Yasha, Miroku and Sango. The last thing they needed was for them to freak out when they saw it.

Katsumi greeted her friend while Kagome and her friends gave their bags to the crew for the flight. Kagome anxiously tightened the scarf on her head hiding her ears and check Shippo's hat. The wind was bothering her a lot and the last thing she needed was for one of their hats to fly off and reveal them. Inu Yasha looked at the plane suspiciously. Kagome had warned him, but it just looked so weird. He could tell Sango and Miroku were thinking the same thing.

"Oh relax, how do you think I felt the first time you asked me to ride Kirara" Kagome said when she caught the looks on her friends faces. She turned her back to them, and pushed Shippo's stroller up the ramp onto the plane. Inu Yasha exchanged glances with Sango and Miroku and decided that he didn't want his mate and pup on that thing without him.

"Oi Kagome wait up" he shouted as he darted after her. Sango and Miroku laughed at his antics. Then they realized that they had gotten on the plane without them and quickly ran onto the plane. Katsumi finished speaking with the pilot and went to say goodbye to her daughter while they prepared to take off. Kagome attempted to keep Shippo calm while she attached his baby seat to the chair. The sounds of the airport were bothering her, so she knew they were bothering him. Inu Yasha searched through the bag for the ear muffler things that they had bought for him. Kagome put Shippo down in his seat and wrapped his blanket around him; she had taken the one from his crib because it had the smell of their room on it. She had also brought his favorite stuffed dog for the plane ride instead of packing him in the suitcase. Hoping that it would keep him from crying too much during the flight. Kagome saw her mother get on the plane and got up to say goodbye and thank you again. Inu Yasha said goodbye from where he was, because he was trying to keep Shippo from crying while Kagome was away from him. As soon as Katsumi was off the plane, the pilot instructed everyone to take their seats and prepare for take off. Kagome immediately put on Shippo's earmuffs, they were specially designed to block as much sound as possible. So on the head of an inu hanyo baby, it would dim the intensity of the sounds.

"I wish we had gotten a pair of those for my ears" Inu Yasha complained as the plane took off. Kagome silently wished the same thing while she watched how unaffected Shippo was by the sound.

"At least he's not crying" Kagome said to Inu Yasha.

"Yeah" Inu Yasha agreed

"How you guys doing?" Kagome asked Miroku and Sango.

"Ok" they said.

The pilot announced that they could move from their seats if needed. The flight attendant offered them lunch and the group eagerly accepted. After eating Kagome asked if they could put in a movie to pass the time. She decided on watching an anime movie because it seemed to be the only thing they all would ever agree on. Shippo had already fallen asleep so she didn't have to feed him unless he woke up. Some time during the movie Kagome fell asleep as well. She was awoken by the sound of the pilot announcing for them to return to their seats and prepare for landing.

"…We're landing already?" Kagome asked shocked.

"Yeah, you all fell asleep during the movie" Inu Yasha answered.

Oh, how was Shippo during the flight."

"He didn't cry once, but I think you really need to take it easy while we're here" Inu Yasha said sincerely.

"Why?" Kagome asked confused

"Well your 3 weeks in now, and you remember what that meant when you carried Shippo" Inu Yasha said.

"I guess your right" Kagome agreed.

"If I recall, you scared a lot of people that day" Inu Yasha said seriously.

"I know, I know, your right, let's not talk about that" Kagome said while looking over at Miroku and Sango to see if they were listening.

Miroku, Sango, and Inu Yasha panicked when the plane hit the ground.

"Relax, its ok, its just the plane landing" Kagome quickly told them.

"Okay, we have officially landed on the island of Hawaii." The pilot announced over the speaker. The flight attendant opened the door and released the ramp. Kagome put Shippo back in his stroller and followed the attendant off the plane. Inu Yasha gathered all of their belongings and got off the plane followed by Miroku and Sango. Outside Kagome was talking to a man standing in front of a really long car. Inu Yasha watched as the plane was pulled away after the attendant gave them their bags and got back on the plane. Inu Yasha helped the little man load the bags into the back of the car. After they got into the car Kagome informed them it was a called a limo.

"This place is really nice Kagome" Sango said as she looked at all the places they were passing.

"Yes…very nice" Miroku said as they drove past a beach.

"Look, that's the hotel up there" Kagome said.

"That's bigger than the palace in the Western Lands" Inu Yasha said in disbelief.

As soon as they pulled up a man walked over to take their bags. Kagome attempted to pay the limo driver but her mother had already paid for it.

"Where do we go to check in" Kagome asked the man taking her bags.

"At the desk over there" the man said pointed towards the desk.

A few minutes later Kagome returned from the desk and handed each of them a plastic card.

"What's this?" Inu Yasha asked looking at the card.

"Its your room key" Kagome said.

"This… is a key" Inu Yasha said confused.

"Just trust me" Kagome said slightly irritated. Kagome walked over to the man with their bags and told them their room number and he led them towards an elevator. Instead of wasting time trying to show them the concept of the room key. She opened the door herself and tipped the bellhop. He thanked her and left.

"Wow…this place is really amazing" Sango said as she looked around the hotel room.

"Ok, there are three rooms in this suite. One for Inu Yasha and myself, one for Miroku, and one for Sango. The only difference between our room and yours is the bed is bigger." Kagome said. Inu Yasha took his bag and Kagome's into the room that had the biggest bed, and then went back and grabbed Shippo's. Sango and Miroku argued over whom got which room the only difference being which side of the main room it was. Finally Sango determined a way to decide who got which room. It resulted in Miroku lying on the floor while Sango picked her room.
