Chapter 3
After 2 hours of being in a silent car, Miroku leaned forward and turned on the radio. It immediately began blasting loud music. Sango and I in the back seat jumped at the loud sound that woke us up from our sleep.
Seeing Miroku's hand on the radio controls turning the music down, we glared at him. Miroku just laughed nervously as the song "Don't Trust Me" by 3oh!3 continued to play at a quieter level.
Since I was awake, her urge to pee became much stronger. 'I knew I shouldn't have had that extra glass of OJ at breakfast this morning' I thought.
"Inuyasha take the next exit, I have to pee!" I said. He glared at me in the rear-view mirror "Didn't you go before we left?" he said it like I was a kid or something. "Of course! I just had too much orange juice" "You can wait" I growled at his rudeness "Inuyasha, unless you want me to pee in your pretty little SUV, you better take the next exit" "We'll be there in 30 minutes. You can hold it" "If I could hold it, I woulnd't be telling you to take the next exit"
Right after she said that, they came near an exit. Kagome eyes shined with hope as they became closer and closer to bathroom heaven.
That is, until Inuyasha passed it.
Without thinking, Kagome unbuckled her seat belt and jumped into the driver's seat and into Inuyasha's lap. She grabbed the steering wheel and made the SUV do a U-turn into the exit lane. During this time, Inuyasha was too shocked to do anything. Responding quickly, he reached around Kagome's waist and grabbed the steering wheel.
"Don't you dare make another U-turn or I will be forced to pee on you" Kagome growled, eyes dead set on the road ahead of her.
Inuyasha decided to sit back and let her drive while he kept his foot on the gas. Miroku just sat there wide-eyed at what Kagome did. "Close your mouth, you might catch flies" Sango told him, unfazed. She was used to Kagome's behavior for when she had to pee. This was pretty mild behavior to her. Then Miroku got a twinkle in his eye and said to Inuyasha "I bet you like Kagome sitting in your lap, don't you?" Inuyasha just glared and said "Feh" with a small blush.
After they pulled into a McDonald's, Kagome hopped off Inuyasha and took off for the bathroom inside. "So we might as well get something to eat since we're here" Sango said, getting out the car too. Miroku took this as his chance to grope. He helped Sango out of the car as Inuyasha walked inside. Then he led the way and held the door open for Sango. She was flattered by his chivalry but also suspicious, at least until he groped her as she walked through the door. She smacked him and the sound resonated through the McDonald's. People stared at them as she dragged him by his ear to the counter.
Inuyasha just looked at them and shook his head. Miroku was always getting himself into situations like this, especially with Sango. "Damn, we just missed breakfast" Inuyasha said as Kagome came back from the restroom. While the others were deciding what they wanted, Inuyasha stepped up to the register and ordered a Big Mac Meal. He grabbed his cup and went to the drink station. Kagome ordered a 10 piece nugget meal, grabbed her drink and went to the drink station. Sango got a southern style crispy chicken meal and her drink. Miroku got a big mac too and got his drink.
They decided to sit down and eat so that Inuyasha wouldn't have to try to eat and drive. They got a booth and Kagome and Sango sat on one side while Inuyasha and Miroku sat on another side. They all happily munched on their food and talked about random things. Before they left, Inuyasha made Kagome go to the bathroom one more time just in case. They all hopped back in the car but this time, Kagome was shotgun and Miroku was in the back with Sango.
Kagome decided to turn the radio on and Hot Chelle Rae's song "Tonight Tonight" was on. Kagome immediately turned it up and Sango and her started singing along. Inuyasha thought the song was annoying and turned the radio off. Kagome turned it back on, making a face at him. He turned it off, she turned it on, he turned it off, she turned it on. Miroku just sighed and thought to himself 'Only about 20 more minutes stuck in this car'
They pulled into the road to The Palace. "Finally" Miroku and Inuyasha said, happily. Kagome and Sango gaped and gasped at the beautiful scenery. The road was cobblestone. The trees were a mix of japanese cherry blossoms and white dogwoods outlining the path. The addition of the nice sunny weather made it look even more beautiful. Inuyasha parked the car further up the road. Everyone got out and stretched their body. Everyone grabbed their bags and walked towards the hotel-like entrance. At the front counter, they had to wait for the people in front of them to check in. Inuyasha walked up and told the lady at the desk, Rin , his name. Kagome walked up to him and smiled at Rin, while she looked for what room they were in. "You're in rooms 3300 and 3301, Inuyasha" and she handed him the room cards. "Rin, why are you working?" Miroku asked, curiously. "I wanted to meet these new girls Sesshoumaru told me you were bringing along" Rin replied, looking directly at Kagome and glancing at Sango.
Before Kagome could ask why, Rin stood up and said " C'mon, you guys, I'll lead the way to your rooms". As soon as she got up, another woman replaced her in giving people their rooms. As Rin stood up, Kagome took notice of her cute orange tanktop and blue jean miniskirt. Apparently Kagome wasn't the only one because Inuyasha said "The Ice Prince let you out in that, knowing you'd be around this pevert," he pointed at Miroku "You must've begged for hours" Inuyasha said laughing. Then he tried to imitate them "No, Rin, no means no" Inuyasha said in a deeper voice. Rin smiled, Inuyasha thought she was smiling at his joke so he continued. "But Sesshy!" Inuyasha siad in a very high pitched voice. "Oh, well fine. Only because I care for you, but I'll never tell you that even though its extremely obvious" Inuyasha said in a deeper voice.
"Half-breed, stop this annoying behavior" Sesshoumaru said from behind Inuyasha.
Inuyasha paled. Then said to Sesshoumaru "What? Are you stalking me or somethin?"
Kagome's POV
"I have more important things to do than stalk you"
While Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru were arguing, I was discreetly checking him out. He was wearing a white suit, clearly made for him. It fit every one of his muscles very nicely. Underneath he had a black button up. I was wondering something, though. It's like 80 degrees outside, why in the world is he wearing a suit? Should I ask him?.. Well Sango and I did make that deal for me to hookup with him.. I might as well get started by talking to him.
"Feh! Right..."
"Hey," I said, tugging on Sesshoumaru's sleeve so he'd look away from Inuyasha and look at me. "Why are you wearing a suit?"
He looked at me with a weird expression before setting his face into its usual bored emotionless look. He stared at me for all of 5 seconds before checking his watch, turning and walking away. I looked at him wide mouthed before turning and following after him. I had to practically run to catch up with him. 'Stupid long legs' I thought.
Inuyasha's POV
"Kagome!" I yelled.
"I'll be back!" She said.
I turned around only to see Rin, Sango and Miroku gone too. 'Rin probably took them on a tour or to the room when we were arguing. She always did hate it when we argued'
I wasn't pissed or anything. At least, not until I saw they left all their luggage and probably expected me to carry it. I sighed. This was going to be a long day...
Sango's POV
As soon as the guys began to argue, Rin turned towards Miroku and I and said "So this will probably go on for awhile, you guys want me to take you to your room?"
I said "Sure" and we both looked at Miroku. He was drooling over Rin. I hit him, knocking him unconscious. I grabbed him by his arm & dragged him to the doors. Rin giggled and began to lead the way.
Kagome's POV
He was walking into The Palace at a much faster pace now. 'Weird' I thought. I hurried to walk next to him. He raised an eyebrow at me. 'Thats actually kinda a turn-on.. Bad Kagome!' I scolded my dirty mind. He was staring at me because I hadn't said anything so I asked my question again "Why are you wearing a suit?"
He didn't say anything at first. I could tell he didn't want to talk to me but I didn't care. I stopped walking and he took a couple of more steps. Then he turned to me and said "This Sesshoumaru owns The Palace" He pointed at the big sign above his head that said Takahashi's The Palace. "As the CEO and founder, I had a meeting today"
After he said that, I felt pretty stupid. 'Well, duh, Kagome. He already told you he owns this place. What now?'
He started to walk off again. "Wait!" I said. He kept walking. I ran to catch up with him again. I grabbed his arm. He stopped walking and looked over my head and growled. I look in the direction he was growling and realized 2 things.
1. When we entered, the entry room had been virtually empty
2. The entry room was now full of happy, determined fangirls glaring at me. I could tell because of all the Sesshoumaru t-shirts, photos, etc.
What a great way to start my day. Then it finally clicked. He stared at me for all of 5 seconds before checking his watch, turning and walking away. "You knew they were gonna be here, right now. Didn't you?" I said looking at him.
"Hn" I took that as a yes. "So.. what are we gonna do?" I asked nervously. They were beginning to close in on us. "We? Miko, who says I'm gonna help you, too?" He asked me. I gaped at him. That jerk! "Because you'll feel really bad if you don't!" I said. He looked at me like yeah, right. So I said "And Inuyasha will complain to you every chance he gets if you don't!". I guess that worked because he threw me over his shoulder and took off into the air. We went thru right over the fangirls heads. I eeped as my skirt flew up. I knew my face was flushed with embarrasment. We flew for a few minutes before he finally desended on a balcony.
He took out a set of keys from his pocket and unlocked it. He walked in and my world became right sde up as he dropped me on a couch. I noiced a smiling Rin, a open-mouthed Sango and an unconscious Miroku in the room. Sesshoumaru walked to another door, opened it and said "C'mon Rin. We have business to do". Rin smiled at us, exchanged cell numbers and left with a wave.
Sango looked at me still open-mouthed. "Tell me everything" she said. I giggled and told her what happened. Right after I finished, Inuyasha came bursting through the door with all of our luggage, looking pissed. He glared at us.
"Oh.. oops" I said with a nervous smile.
Sorry for all of the confusing POV's. I thought it'd be better that way. I don't know, though. Hope you enjoy this chapter! Please review!
