InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ To Find You ❯ The Wedding, Part 2 ( Chapter 2 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Hey everyone out there! I'm so happy that some of you have actually reviewed! I don't think anyone but other writers understand how much that brightens my day. Even constructive criticism is taken as encouragement!
 
 
Also -
Someone requested the ages of the characters in this story.
Kagome is 17, and in her final year of high school.
Sesshomaru is 19, and works for his father.
Inuyasha and Kikyou have been graduates for one year now. With the idea that they graduated at 17, they are presently 18, soon to be 19. (If that made any sense.)

BIG IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Okay, some people have had some concerns about the fact that Sesshomaru and Kagome, the pairing for this story, are now in-laws. I swear to you this is completely okay from a legal viewpoint because they are not blood relatives. If you do have a problem with the type of relationship I am writing about, do not read. I am not planning to make Kikyou and Inuyasha divorce or seperate so that Sesshomaru and Kagome can be together. The relationship is completely okay. I mean, come on, it's legal for the mother of a groom to marry the father of the bride. It's okay for stepbrothers and stepsisters to marry. This is only incest if they are blood relatives.
Please consider not reading this story if this disturbs you that much. Thanks. I will discontinue writing if not met with encouragement from reviews. So if you enjoy this story, and are not bothered by what is a completely legal relationship, just drop me a line saying something to the degree of, yes, you are completely fine with the Sess/Kag deal.
Thanks, ac06.
 
 
**********
After a while of dancing, sipping champagne, and socializing with guests, Kagome and the others took their seats as the time came to eat the wedding supper.
 
Kagome blushed and ducked her head when Sesshomaru's arm brushed against her.
 
He had been a true gentleman, even though Inuyasha had said some fairly nasty things. Kagome stared down at the simple white table cloth. She had a plate of food she had gotten from the buffet table the caterers had set up. It was a meager serving, but she wasn't very hungry.
 
Her leg reflexively jumped when Sesshomaru's knee bumped into hers.
 
“Sorry,” he said, looking her in the eye.
 
“S'okay,” she mumbled, glancing at him. She nudged her food with her fork, willing herself to eat.
 
 
 
 
*********
Sesshomaru wondered what was the matter with that girl, Kagome. She was so quiet. Inuyasha had told him a few things about her. She supposedly was very talkative when she was alone and comfortable. Inuyasha mentioned that Kagome used to have a small crush on him before he went out with Kikyou.
 
Sesshomaru had sensed the girls tears at the wedding rehearsals, and looking at her then, he could tell the girl still had feelings for his stupid younger brother.
 
He sighed. Now he was even more confused. At the wedding, she seemed almost relieved by their marriage.
 
He shrugged, oh well, the girl must have mental problems.
 
 
 
 
Kagome, unaware of the youkai's new incorrect assumptions, was steadily sipping wine. She had already lost count of how many glasses she had consumed. Boy, was it good.
 
She was so happy now. She grinned from ear to ear, and propped her chin in her hand. Unfortunately, she hadn't raised her elbow, and so it was an uncomfortable position having her head only a few inches from her knee.
 
Kagome then began to frown after awhile. She didn't know why. She just began to no longer be pleased.
 
She sat up straight again, and looked to her side. That hot guy, what was his name? Oh, Sesshomaru, she thought dreamily. She realized he was gone. She looked to one of the small tables far away from the bride and groom.
 
Some girl with really short hair, Yura, she thought, she was all over him!
 
Why is Yura all over him? she thought angrily. He walked me down the aisle! That automatically makes him mine! She tightened her hands into fists at her side. She was unaware of the furious look on her face that gave her away.
 
She sighed, feeling defeated. Why do pretty girls keep stealing all the guys in my life? she whined inwardly.
 
She got up slowly, and went to the restrooms. The large park where they had held the wedding at had a small building with restrooms in it. She splashed a little water from the sink on her face.
 
She then began to justify her emotions.
 
One, why am no longer jealous of Inuyasha and Kikyou? she thought. Because I have had a long time to come to terms with the fact that they were in love. I have made peace with the situation. She grinned. `All we are sayyyying, is give peace a chaaaaaaance' she sang in her head. Now what was I doing, oh yeah.
 
Two, why am I feeling sad? Well, it's no longer because of Inuyasha and Kikyou. I've already covered that. Oh, all right, I admit it, I'm jealous that Yura is making out with Sesshomaru. She doesn't deserve a hot guy like him. He's so pretty. I like his hair. She then frowned. Yura probably likes his hair too. She does sorta have a hair fetish. Stupid hairy girl. *Hiccup*
 
Why in the world am I jealous of Yura and Sesshomaru!?! she inwardly yelled at herself. Why? I shouldn't be jealous! I'd rather still be upset about Inuyasha and Kikyou than Sesshomaru! How can I like him? Wait, LIKE him? No way. Damnit, oh well, I already said it.
 
Stunned at her newest revelation, she decided it must be the wine. She also determined that she better have another glass of wine to forget everything she had recently come to terms with.
 
Night was quickly falling, and Kagome wanted to look at the stars slowly becoming visible in the sky. She sat down on the ground, far away from the reception, and placed her umpteenth wine glass far away that if it spilled, it would only soak into that soft, dewy grass, and not her expensive dress.
 
She heard her cell phone ringing in her small clutch purse. She answered it when she saw Sango's number show up on the screen.
 
“Hey! How's my fav'rite person?!” she happily shouted in the phone.
 
“Hey too you to,” Sango said, bewildered at her friends reaction. “So how are you holding up at the wedding?” she asked, concerned for her friend.
 
“I'm not holding anything up, Sango, you silly. I'm sitting.” She giggled, not noticing that her words slurred.
 
“Are you DRUNK?” Sango hissed, trying not to let her parents hear.
 
“No, no, no, Sango, I swear to drunk I'm not god!” she said adamantly.
 
“Kagome, you can't drink away your problems,” Sango informed her.
 
“I know,” she whined back pitifully. “But she's all making out with him, and I got so sad, then I went to the bathroom, and thought everything out, then you called.” she rambled.
 
“Kagome, they just married, and she's your sister. You better get used to them making out. I know it's tough, sweetie, but you've just got to deal with it. And not by drinking.”
 
“She's not my sister.” Kagome said, now very confused.
 
“What do you mean?”
 
“Yura's not my sister. I don't like her.”
 
“You mean to tell me Inuyasha just married Kikyou, and now is making out with YURA???” Sango yelled furiously. “I knew that hanyou was a good for nothing piece of crap!!”
 
“It's not Inuyasha, it's Sesshomaru. I don't like Inuyasha anymore. But I think I'm getting a teensy little crush on Sesshomaru, but he's making out with somebody, even though he was mine first, so now I'm sad.” she wailed into the phone.
 
Sango was silent for a long time. “This is what happens when you are released into public, Kagome. You wreak havoc. Here's a tip, Kagome, go sit in the car that is taking you home. Be very quiet there. Wait for the driver, and do not leave the car, okay? Goodnight sweetie. Maybe you can sleep in the backseat and get rid of some of that alcohol you drank. Bye Kags, I'll see you soon.” She promptly hung up.
 
Kagome shut her phone, put it back in her purse, along with her empty wine glass. Who knew, maybe she'd need a refill later on.
 
She half stumbled, half limped to the parking lot. There were a lot of cars there. She couldn't really remember what car was supposed to be her ride home.
 
She saw a convertible with the top down. That must be it, she thought. She climbed into the backseat and laid her head down. The smooth leather was cool from the night air. Kagome found it very easy to fall asleep there, unaware that she was drooling, and oblivious to the fact she was in Sesshomaru Taisho's backseat.
 
 
 
 
 
I tried to make this a little happier. I love Kagome drunk. Betcha can't wait to see the next chapter. Hmm... Kagome isn't in love with Sesshomaru or anything, she just has a crush on him, added to the fact she's drunk. Well, hope it makes you guys smile!
Also, I tried to make the chapter a little longer. From now on, I'm only going to respond to reviews that need a reply. Takes up to much room just to acknowledge and thank all of you guys! I hope this was up to standards. Well, I'm freaking out from all the good reviews. I really appreciate every single one of them!!! By the way, fanfiction.net rocks!
