Present day, Date: February 14, 2013

I sit at the table in the fancy restaurant I'm supposed to be meeting Kagome at. Kagome…I can't believe she has stayed with me for three years. Of course, I'm sexy as hell and she's sexy as hell, so we go together perfectly. And don't get me started on the sex. I'm betting on tonight being the best romp in the sheets we've had so far though.

I love Kagome, I do, but I can't help but get annoyed at how late she can be to every fucking important event! Then again…she doesn't really know how important this dinner is.

I smile to myself as I run my fingers over the black velvet box I hold in my hand. Yes, I the fucking amazing Inuyasha Taisho, is proposing to the equally amazing Kagome Higurashi. The place I chose to do this is perfect too: a nice restaurant that Kagome has always been dying to go to, but always complains that it is too nice for me to take her too, which requires the ladies to wear dresses and the men to wear suits. Please, I can buy the whole menu and not go flat broke. But, Kagome didn't grow up in a rich life style like I did, so let's just say she is more *cough* responsible with her money than I am.

The ring itself is grander than the restaurant itself. I know she'll love it; not only am I a confident bastard, I saw her looking at it through the window when we went to the mall together a few months ago. I was always set on marrying her, ever since I laid eyes on her, but seeing her looking through the glass at the ring made everything click into place.

I bet you're wondering why I didn't just propose a few months earlier. Hell, when I bought the ring and sat in my house staring at it, I myself wondered why I didn't just slip the damn thing on her finger as soon as I got it.

Was I scared she would say no? Maybe.

Was I waiting to find the perfect place? Yes.

Was I nervous what I would say to her? Yes. And fuck it, I still am.

But all these things wasn't the ultimate thing stopping me. The thing that was stopping me…was Valentine's Day. Yes, the very thing I hated with a passion and wish I could have pissed all over…until I met my Kagome on that. So, Valentine's is a perfect day to propose to her!

In case you haven't caught on, that day is today bitches. And here I am, sitting in the middle of a snazzy restaurant by myself waiting for my mate and hopefully soon-to-be-wife to arrive.

As if on cue, my sensitive nose picks up her familiar sweet scent. I quickly shove the ring back in my pocket; my fumbling fingers almost making me drop the box.

"Shit…" I mumble to myself. I quickly put my hands back on the table to look normal, and I have to remind myself to keep breathing and not to sweat. Sweating comes during the sex because it's really fucking awesome and fast.

Sweating before? Not sexy.

I hear Kagome approaching the table and my ears swivel in her direction. I hear her giggle and I smile to myself. She's so cute…

"Hey baby," she says and leans down to give me a small kiss before she sits down, "I should kill you for paying for this."

I snort, "If you kill me then you'll have to pay."

She laughs softly as she sits in the chair, "Ok Inuyasha, what's this all about?"

My shoulders stiffen and I try to keep my breathing under control, "Wh-what do you mean? I'm not up to anything!"

Kagome raises an eyebrow, "I didn't say you were…I mean what's the occasion?"

"Uh…right! Well today is Valentine's Day so I figured we should celebrate with a nice dinner and wonderful sex when we get back to my house!" I say, trying to keep the high pitched squeak out of my voice.

She giggles and shakes her head, "You are insatiable Inuyasha Taisho. Don't you ever get tired of me?"

"Hell no woman. I can have you all day."

"I know. You almost kept me locked in your office a few weeks ago."

"…Feh. Like you didn't enjoy it."

She smirks, "I never said I didn't."

I smile back at her and watch as she takes a sip of wine that I ordered for her. Seriously I can't not express to you enough how much I fucking love this woman.

The dinner we ate was delicious, and I loved to watch Kagome's face show her emotions if she didn't like she was eating or if she did. Her eyebrows furrowed together when she didn't approve of it, or her eyes closed and her lips pressed together if she did. My meal was mostly ignored because I was too busy watching her.

Yeah, sue me for being romantic.

The waiter came and took our plates, but not before he stared at Kagome for a little too long. I gave him a low growl of warning and he scurried off like a little pussy.

"Inuyasha…that wasn't necessary." Kagome says sternly.

"Feh, 'course it was. You're mine."

She places her hand softly over mine, "Of course I am baby." Kagome smiles and wraps her fingers with mine.

I swallow hard and try not to increase my breathing again, "Yeah, uh…I have something to ask you…"

Kagome's face takes on a serious mask and leans back into her chair, her hand sliding away from mine, "What about?"

"W-well it's something I've been meaning to do for a long time…"

I stop myself when the scent of saltwater hits my nose. I look up and see tears welling up in Kagome's beautiful eyes and her mouth pulled down at the corners.

"Why are c-crying?!"

"Are you breaking up with me…?"

"Wha..?" She thought I was breaking up with her?! Why the hell would I ever want to do that for?! "No! No baby I'm not!" I get up from my chair and kneel in front of her, cradling her face in my hands. "Kagome, you never have to worry about me breaking up with you. I can't ever imagine life without you." I wipe my thumbs under her eyes to wipes the tears away and I chuckle at her.

She sniffs, "What are you laughing at?!"

"You, silly. You are so ridiculous sometimes."

"I know…"

I take my hands away from her face and stick my hand in the pocket the ring is in. I look her dead in the eyes and she gives me a confused look. I smile at her reassuringly.

"Kagome Higurashi…three years ago you walked into my office for a job interview and damn near took my breath away. I wanted you from the moment I saw you. I fell more in love with you every time I talked to you. You are so beautiful, funny, smart…I don't know where to stop. I wish I could erase every stupid thing I've done; from not remembering your birthday to forgetting to put the toilet seat down. Though that's kind of a ridiculous thing to-"

Kagome stops my sentence with a stern looking, clearly telling me it's not ridiculous.

"Ok…I give up you had a right to be mad at me. But," I pull the box out of my pocket and hold it out in front of her, making her gasp and cover her mouth when I open it, "will you marry me and allow me to keep forgetting to put down the damn toilet seat?"

Kagome's eyes move back and forth from me and the ring, "That's the ring I…I was looking at in the window…" She whispers and runs a finger over the diamonds tentatively, as if she's afraid they will disappear right out from under her.

I smile, "Yeah. I saw you looking at it. My girl should get everything she wants."

Kagome stares at me without saying a word.

"Now…would be a great time to say something love…"

"Yes…yes of course I'll marry you Inuyasha!"

We both laugh in happiness as I slip the ring on her finger. I stare at the diamond and kiss the top of her hand. I stand up, picking her up on the way, and crush my lips onto hers. She holds my face in her hands and kisses me back enthusiastically. I run my tongue over her lips, begging for entrance and she complies. We engage in a battle of dominance; of course I win. Kagome's hands slip into my hair and pull me closer. I pull away from her before it goes anything further…out in public at least.

"Thank you Kagome."

"Don't thank me. I can't live without you Inuyasha. No matter how many times you leave the damn toilet seat down."

I lean down next to her ear, "I want to take you home and fuck you on every single surface possible."

I feel her shiver against me, "What's stopping you?"

"Absolutely nothing." I lay down a couple hundred dollars just in case one hundred doesn't cover it, and carry her ass right out of that restaurant.

"Happy Valentine's day, Inuyasha."

"Happy Valentine's Day, Kagome."
