Strictly Business

Chapter 6: Wedding Bells are ringing… kinda

“A WEEK!” Kagome screamed when they got back inside the limo. “A WEEK!” she continues to yell as she starts hitting him.

“HEY! OW! WATCH IT! WENCH! STOP!” Inuyasha yells as he tries to block the blows from his angry fiancé.

Kagome huffed as she sat back down and crossed her arms, “When were you going to tell me this? Were you just going to wait for the wedding date?”

“Look wench-“

“STOP CALLING ME A WENCH BECAUSE GOD HELP ME I WILL CUT OFF YOUR FAMILY JEWELS!”

Inuyasha quietly gulped as he shifted away from Kagome, “Look wen- uh Kagome, you make it sound like I knew about this all along! I found out right before we came to this stupid charity show!”

“First of all it's not a stupid charity show! All the contributions go to the children's hospital. And second of all when were you planning on telling me? If you already knew how come you didn't tell me right away?”

“Feh this is what I get for being sensitive and caring!” Inuyasha mumbled.

“What?”

“Damn it wench! You were nervous enough coming to this event! I just didn't think you should be stressed more stressed then you were! I was going to tell you after we got back to the house!” Inuyasha now crossed his arms and looked out the window.

“Look Inuyasha-“

“Save it wench, I don't feel like putting up with this any longer.”

The ride back to the mansion was silent except for the constant hum of the world outside.

When they arrived Kagome and Inuyasha mumbled a good night to each other and set off into their rooms.

Kagome tossed in bed, in a restless sleep, until she finally chose to open her eyes and look at the clock.

“2:30?” She flopped back down on her bed and tried to get to sleep again with no avail.

Why did she feel so bad? She already knew that though, Inuyasha. How can he be such an asshole and so sweet at the same time? He had definitely changed since high school, she could believe it was only one year ago that they were `together'.

Kagome sighed and put the pillow over her head. If she screamed would anyone hear? Well that was a stupid question, Inuyasha was half-dog demon, of course he could hear her.

Giving up on the idea, she turned away from the clock and tried to get to sleep, god knows that she was going to need all the rest in the world if the wedding was going to be in a week.

That week went by way too fast for everyone and the `blessed' day was here!

Sleeping peacefully, at least for now, the groom lay on his red silk sheets dreaming about things that he would rather not talk about.

Inuyasha groaned, his ears swirling in the direction his sensitive hearing picked up.

“What the-“

“WAKE UP HONEY! OH IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY! THE SUN IS SHINNIG, THE BIRDS ARE SINGING AND MY LITTLE BOY IS GETTING MARRIED!”

“Mom!” Inuyasha whined, stuffing his head back into his pillow.

Izayoi sighed and pulled the covers off her son, “Come now Inu!”

Inuyasha kicked his feet and whined again, “Mooooommm!! I'm cold!”

“Inuyasha Takanashi! Get out of bed this instant! You are getting married today! Stop acting like a 5 year old!”

Inuyasha grumbled and started to get out of bed when his father popped in, hair disheveled, like he just woke up, “She make you get up too?”

Inuyasha grumbled and headed off to his bathroom to take a shower.

InuTaisho laughed while looking at his wife, “He kicked again didn't he?”

Izayoi continued to frown, “I don't know what you're so happy about, you were doing the same thing 5 minutes ago!” And with that she went to wake up her future daughter-in- law that would hopefully be more cheerful than the other two.

Inuyasha turned the hot water on and stepped in to the chamber. Splashing water in his face he was hopping to wake up a little. It really hadn't hit him yet, he was getting married in less than 10 hours. That thought seemed to wake him up as she continued to let the water run over his face.

`What am I doing?' he asked himself, `What am I doing! I'm only 20! I shouldn't be getting married! I should be out getting drunk and getting laid! The gods hated him, they really did, he was stuck with Kagome for the rest of his life.'

Inuyasha stopped to grab his shampoo and started to wash his hair, `Well it's not like she wants to be doing this either.' He reminded himself. `She didn't want to do this but why was she doing it? For her family? Her father? Well it wasn't really like they gave either of them a chance. They were forced into this. It's not fair! IT'S NOT FAIR!” Inuyasha shook his head, making the water go everywhere, `Life isn't fair. What am I doing?'

`Fulfilling a promise' he whispered as he started to turn the shower off.

Kagome didn't have time to register what she was doing much less what day it was. She was awoken by Izayoi and didn't have time to properly wake up as she was put in the bathroom with the shower running. It took her a few minutes to get undressed and step into the shower. It took her a few more minutes to realize what day it was.

“Oh my god!” she whispered as she sank down to her shower floor. “I'm getting married today, oh my god, I'm getting married today!”

She took a few minutes to collect herself and started to bathe. Today she was going to become Mrs. Kagome Takanashi. Kagome smiled despite herself, it didn't sound that bad.

Kagome quickly finished and dressed in a track suit to get her hair and makeup done.

As Kagome came down the stairs she noticed a half awake half asleep Sango sprawled out on the couch.

“Morning” Sango mumbled then quickly opened her eyes, “KAGOME! YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED TODAY!”

Kagome laughed and nodded, “Yeah, I know.”

Sango hit her head, “Of course you know! I'm being stupid! Come on! I told your mom and Mrs. T. that I would drive to hair and makeup, they'll meet us up later!”

“Ok sounds good.”

With that the girls left to get ready and the boys well…

“Hey Yash” Miroku said as she flopped on the couch next to his best friend.

“Hey” Inuyasha mumbled not taking his eyes away from the TV.

“So what are you doing? What are you suppose to do on your wedding day?”

Inuyasha shrugged, never taking his eyes off the TV.

“Videogames?” Miroku asked throwing a controller at his friend.

“Monk, that's the best idea you've ever had!”

Getting ready for her wedding was definitely fun but as the hairdressers and makeup artist started finishing up, Kagome's gitters started.

Kagome was soon rushed in to the car then driven back to the mansion. As she walked into the house she could hear InuTaisho yelling something like `HOW DARE YOU PLAY VIDEOGAMES ON YOUR WEDDING DAY!'

Just then Izayoi rushed into the living room rushing Kagome into her room, “We can't have the groom seeing his bride before the wedding can we!”

Kagome gave her a small smile as she started to put on her wedding dress with the help of Sango.

When she was finished getting dressed Izayoi and Mrs. H were already in tears. “Sweetheart! You look beautiful!” Izayoi praised Kagome as she twirled around.

“Now to the wedding customs, `something old, something new, something borrowed something blue!'” Mrs. H cheered as she went to retrieve something in her bag.

“Your garter is your blue, your dress is new, something old is, well,” Mrs. H started, tears forming in her eyes again, “Kagome this was your grandmother's bracelet, she wore it at her wedding and I wore it at mine, I hope this helps bring you happiness honey!”

Izayoi nodded as she approached Kagome, “I wanted you to have this but you need something borrowed,” Izayoi pulled out a velvet box and inside was the most beautiful diamond necklace Kagome had ever seen, “I want you to wear it.”

Kagome began to shake her head but Izayoi insisted, “Take is honey, its just borrowed remember!” she said giving her a wink.

Kagome smiled and followed the women out the door, on the way to the church.

It was 1:58pm, the wedding started at 2pm and Inuyasha was pacing.

“You nervous man?” Miroku smiled as she watched his friend pace.

Inuyasha merely growled and continued pacing.

“Inuyasha” InuTaisho said as he slapped his son on the back, “I'm proud of you son, I know I don't tell you that a lot but I am.”

Inuyasha merely nodded and looked in the mirror, “This is it”

Kagome was sitting down looking out the window when InuTaisho walked in, “Are you ready?”

Kagome looked up and smiled, she slowly got up, taking one last look in the mirror, “This is it”

Inuyasha stood in his face, he was thankful that most grooms where nervous and that his nervousness didn't show as much. Everyone in the church was talking quietly and some where openly staring and pointing at him. He knew that some of the newspapers had been invited to give the wedding publicity. Inuyasha snorted, `Not like they need anymore.'

Everything became silent as the music to cue the bride was brought on.

Inuyasha's breath caught in his throat as he saw her step out. Kagome was wearing a long princess gown dress, all white, no sleeves with beautiful embroidery. (think Jessica Simpson wedding dress!) Her hair was haft up half down in loose curls framing her face. She was smiling, god how he loved that smile.

Kagome clutched InuTaisho's arm as they made their way down the aisle. She took her time to smile at everyone and her eyes finally rested on Inuyasha. He was looking better than she had ever seen him. He was wearing a traditional black and white tux, his hair pulled back into a low ponytail. She gave him a smile and was surprised when he smiled back to her.

They had finally arrived at the end and InuTaisho handed Kagome's hand to Inuyasha. As Inuyasha grabbed her hand he felt a strange sensation stirring inside of him, promising of better things to come. He smiled at her and both of them turned towards the aging priest.

“We are gathered here today to join Kagome Higurashi and Inuyasha Takanashi in holy matrimony. Now Inuyasha if you please”

“Kagome, I, Inuyasha, give you this ring, wear it with love and joy. I choose you to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward for better or for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish as long as we both shall live.”

Kagome smiled as he slipped the ring to her finger. She was only going to do this once, and not matter how much it hurt to marry someone that she didn't love, she had to do this for her family.

“Inuyasha, I, Kagome, give you this ring, wear it with love and joy. I choose you to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward for better or for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish as long as we both shall live.”

The priest smiled at the young couple, “That was beautiful, now” but before he could get any further.

“STOP! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!”

The priest quickly huffed, “I HAVENT GOTTEN TO THAT PART YET!”
