A/N: Hey-o! This is my second story. I know I'm not finished with Let's Make Music but I couldn't wait any longer to publish another one. Once again, It's filled errors (I probably should get a beta) since I wrote this in a short time span. Well, read on!


Chapter One: Well, They Pretty Much Hate Me

Kagome was rudely awaken from her dream of Robert Pattinson with his shirt off by a stirring. Kagome opened her eyes to see a blurred Kikyo walking frantically around their tiny dorm room. She wiped the sleep from her eyes which revealed a crying Kikyo. She immediately jumped out of bed and was at Kikyo's side in an instant.

"Kikyo, what's wrong?" Kagome asked fearfully.

"Nothing's wrong. I mean something is or was wrong but now everything's going to be alright," Kikyou rambled.

"Wait, What! Slow down! What are trying to say?!" Kagome's lethargic mind couldn't possibly understand what Kikyo was talking.

"Shh, Keep your voice down Kagome," Kikyo scolded. Kikyo finally slowed down for a minute and pulled Kagome with her to sit on the bed.

"So you remember how tonight was the night I get to meet Inuyasha's parents?"

Kagome's mind finally started to clear. "Yeah, Yeah! How did go?" Kagome had a smile on her face that started to match her friend's

"Yea, it wasn't good," Kikyo said losing her smile, so did Kagome.

"What! What happen?" Kagome asked confused.

Kikyo began to cry even harder as she reminisce about what happened earlier in the evening. "Oh, it's just that they didn't like me is all. How bout I tell the full story later on, Kay." Kikyo began to get up but was pulled back down by Kagome.

"Kikyo, come on it's me," Kagome said with pleading in her eyes. She knew her childhood friend may have not wanted to talk about it but she needed to talk about it.

"Okay," Kikyo wiped a few stray tears from her cheek. "Well, it pretty much started the minute Inuyasha's mom opened the door." Kagome quirked her eyebrows. "She gives me this look like 'you're wearing that to dinner.' Kagome, it wasn't like I was dressed to party. I had on my 'meet the parents and possible surprise visit from Grandma' outfit."

"The purple polka dot shift dress with the matching white cashmere cardigan white ballet slippers?" Kagome asked knowing Kikyo's wardrobe like the back of her own hand.

"Yes!"

"What! What's wrong with that? Those are the only articles of clothing in your closet that actually do their job: cover you up."

"I know! Inuyasha hated it. But anyways the night was filled with Inuyasha's mom whispering snide remarks to his dad and the help. Then after dinner, I went to the bathroom and when I came back, I heard them talking about me!"

"What did they say?" Kagome asked anxiously.

"Inuyasha, do you really think you could bring a girl like that to our home?" Inuyasha's mother asked appalled.

"What wrong with her, mother? She is beautiful and sweet and a great personality. She also one hell of a cook if you ask me," Inuyasha added chuckling. But his laughter quickly disappeared when he saw his parents' faces.

"We are not saying that she isn't those things, son. Right, honey?" Inuyasha's father looked to his wife for support.

"Of course," she said never losing eye contact with Inuyasha.

"She's just....she is..." his dad sputtered.

"She's trash," his mother finished plainly.

"What!" Inuyasha screamed.

"Now! Calm down, Inuyasha. Your mother didn't mean it like that."

"No, I meant it exactly like that. She is below your rank, my son," she said with disgust.

"My rank?" Inuyasha was seething with anger now.

"Yes, son. Whether you want to admit or not, we are practically Japanese royalty," Inuyasha's mother replied with a small, slightly pompous smile.

"You can do better than her. Someone who is pretty if not prettier. Someone who definitely has a higher ranking than her and has money of her own."

"What does it matter if she's the most beautiful woman in the world or if she has a shitload of money? What's matters is how she makes me feel here," Inuyasha said pointing to his heart.

"Inuyasha, we only saying that if Kikyo had her own money then we wouldn't be having this conversation," his father unhelpfully added.

"What!"

"Think about it son. Was it just coincidence that you met her or did she meet you fot the purpose of winning you over for your money?" his father concluded.

Inuyasha's resolve faltered for a second to think about what his father said. There were many times he dated a girl who only wanted him for his money or tried to get to his brother who had more. Hell, he got sex on a daily basis in high school based purely on his financial status. "She claimed she didn't know anything about my money until I told her about it and then she didn't seem to care."

His mother could tell Inuyasha's mind was being swayed in their direction. It was almost too hard to hold back a smile. "Sweetheart, it was probably a trick. I mean everyone on the campus knows about your family's wealth and power"

"Yea, I guess you're right," Inuyasha said saddened. he was finally convinced by his parents that Kikyo wasn't the one for him.

Kagome stared at Kikyo heartbroken for her friend. Kikyo's tears where steadily flowing down her face. Kagome embrace her friend in tight hug. She held Kikyo for what seemed forever. Once Kagome let go, she slipped on her flip-flops and grabbed her car keys.

"Where are you going, Kagome?" Kikyo asked.

"I'm going to get our late night Big Breakup meal," Kagome answered. Their Breakup meal consisted of turtle cake; two pints of Haagen-Dazs Dulce de Leche ice cream; and using her fake id, a six pack of Jack Daniels Downhome Punch.

"No, you don't have to get anything. We didn't break up." Kikyo stopped Kagome dead in her tracks.

"What!" Kagome shouted. She was excited and both terrified for her best friend (she could've really used a bottle of Downhome Punch).

"Shh, keep your voice low. Did you want to wake up everyone in this hall?" Kikyo reprimanded. "He came dashing out the house as I was walking down their driveway to the street. First, he convinced me to let him give me a ride. Then instead of taking me to the dormitory, he took me to his favorite forest. He pulled me out of the car and led me to his favorite tree..."

"And then what?" Kagome asked eagerly.

Kikyo slowly raised her left hand to reveal an antique gold ring with a brilliant round cut diamond in the center.

"Kikyo, does this mean what I think it means?" Kagome asked haphazardly.

"Kagome, we getting married!" Kikyo squealed as she embraced Kagome in another hug.

Kagome was happy for her friend but she wasn't sure if this was the right choice. For starters, his parents obviously didn't like Kikyo. Inuyasha was susceptible to people changing his mind. Lastly, they had pretty much reached an impasse in their relationship and they were going to get married?

"That's great but are sure you want to do this?" Kagome asked.

"Of course, I am. Why wouldn't I be?" Kikyo slightly narrowed her eyes at her friend.

"I mean think of all you guys have been through recently and plus you're only nineteen!" Kagome stressed.

"Yea but all these trials we've gone through only makes our love stronger and your parents were married at eighteen and were happily married until...well...you know" Kikyo finished sadly.

"Yea, I know," Kagome said with her head down.

"Look just have faith in us, okay?"

Kagome gave Kikyo a littlle smile. "Okay."

Kagome looked around the room to find Kikyo's transparent suitcase filled with various items.

"Going somewhere," Kagome joked.

"I told you I'm getting married."

"You meant tonight!"

"No, silly 'Gome, we getting married tomorrow evening."

Kagome thought at least they would wait a few months, not now. Kikyo hadn't even been with Inuyasha for a year.

"I didn't think you guys would get marry this early."

"Well, we thought about getting married later on, but then we figured why does it make a difference when we get married as long as we're together." Kikyo had a quirky smile on her face as dreamed about marital bliss with Inuyasha.

"So where are you going to get married?"

"Duh, where anyone goes to get a quickie marriage." Kagome shrugged her shoulders. "To Vegas!"

"Wait. Las Vegas, USA!"

"Uh-huh." Kagome shook her head at her friend.

Kikyo got a contemplative look on her face.

"What are you thinking about?" asked Kagome.

"Come with me," Kikyo said with ease.

"Are you serious? I don't have any money to go out of town-let alone out of state!"

"It's fine. You won't need a plane ticket, Inuyasha's family has a private jet. And he can pay for your hotel room and everything."

"I thought you weren't marrying him for his money," Kagome said snidely.

"Fine! You can pay him back when you get the chance," Kikyo said after rolling her eyes. "Come on, I want my best friend and my maid of honor to be there when I get married." Kikyo gave Kagome her best puppy dog eyes and pout knowing Kagome couldn't resist.

"Fine," Kagome said in submission.

Sesshomaru walked into his parents house to see his stepmother with a saddened look and his father knocking a tumbler of scotch.

"Hello, son," his father said uninterested.

"Hello, father," Sesshomaru said with an equally emotionless tone. "What ails you, Izayoi?" Not that Sesshomaru really cared.

"Oh, Inuyasha brought his girlfriend over to meet us and let's just say it didn't end well," she responded.

"After he had dropped the girl off, he locked himself in his room and hasn't came out since," Sesshomaru's father gave a melancholy look to the empty tumbler.

Sesshomaru wanted to roll his eyes. Albeit he was the pride and glory of his parents, Inuyasha was their heart and emotions. If Inuyasha was sad, everyone was sad. If Inuyasha was happy, everyone was happy. It was disturbing.

"Oh forget all this fighting. I gonna check on my baby," said his concerned stepmother.

A few minutes after she left, Sesshomaru and his father heard a bloodcurdling scream from upstairs. Sesshomaru and his father used their demon speed to sprint upstairs to Inuyasha's room. They found Sesshomaru's wailing stepmother on the bed but there was no Inuyasha in sight. Sesshomaru's father asked what was wrong but his wife gave him no answer. She merely handed him a piece of paper.

Dear mom and dad, I'm sorry that you can't love Kikyo as strongly as I do but your poor ideals of her will not sway my love for her. We have left Japan to get married. I'm sorry your snobbery allows you not be at our wedding.

"He's going to marry that....that whore!" Izayoi finally spat out.

Inutashio turned to his eldest son with a hard-bitten in his eyes. "Sesshomaru, I expect you to fix this."
