And thus begins the long awaited sequel.
The "Best" Vacation Ever 2: Summertime
Inuyasha dropped their bags in their room as Kagome followed him in. He stared at the single bed and sighed, "This is so déjà vu."
Kagome blinked, "What?"
"The whole one bed for two roommates thing," Inuyasha explained, "It reminds me of our last vacation. Only this time you're not asking stupid questions. Speaking of, you hungry?" He pulled out a granola bar. Nowadays he always had several on him.
Kagome glared but accepted the granola bar. "So will you sleep on the floor this time, too?"
Inuyasha looked at the bed and then the floor. Then he shuddered at the slumber blunder they suffered last time. "And repeat last time's stupidity? Not a chance. Plus we're going out now, so it's not so bad to share."
Kagome rose an eyebrow.
Inuyasha went deep crimson. "I'm not saying that we'll-"
Kagome laughed, "Well, yeah. Of course." But despite her laughing, an awkward silence followed.
Inuyasha looked awkwardly around. Now that the thought was in his head, it wouldn't go away. He scratched his side awkwardly.
Kagome went a deep tomato red.
Inuyasha cleared his throat.
"So! Um-! Do you know if Eriko has some sort of schedule for us?" Kagome blurted out at last, in a weak attempt to eliminate the awkwardness.
Inuyasha shrugged. "Don't think she signed us up for anything like couples' therapy. We just supposed to talk."
"So...talk, eh?" Kagome replied and yet another silence followed.
"Wanna go find Miroku and Sango or something?" Inuyasha blurted out, shuffling awkwardly.
Kagome nodded enthusiastically. "We can talk later."
...Elsewhere...
Eriko and Yuki had finished unpacking rather quickly, they did, after all, have a system. So now they sat on the sandy and slightly crowded beach.
Eriko stretched out on a striped pink and white blanket. She wore a pink bikini that Yuki hadn't seemed to have noticed. But she tried not to let that bother her.
"So Yuki?" she began but frowned when she noticed he had pulled out a Death Note manga. He was reading it and therefore lost in the world of Light and L.
Her frown deepened. She wondered what would happen if she was dying. Would he even notice until he finished the manga? She pushed the thought out of her head, trying to focus on happier things. Like her friends finally fixing their screwed up relationships. Instead of thinking about how infuriating it was that Yuki could get lost in a series he's read fifty billion times before.
It's the same fucking story, Yuki.
She let out a mollifying breath. She stood up abruptly. "Yuki, honey, I'm gonna get us some ice cream, kay?" Yuki grunted in response. He probably had no idea what she just said.
Eriko pulled out the cash to pay for the two vanilla ice cream cones with a sigh.
"Oh, hello."
Eriko blinked at the sound of an unfamiliar male voice. She turned to find a confident grin plastered on an admittedly gorgeous face. He had ebony locks tied back into a short ponytail with a few stray strands splayed over his forehead. And one of the most inviting set of chocolate eyes that Eriko had ever seen. She felt her face heat up.
It didn't help that he was rather built. Lean muscle though.
"H-hello," Eriko managed as a pool of guilt surfaced in her stomach.
"Sorry to bother you," the man who couldn't be that much older than Eriko continued and Eriko couldn't help but think that he was no bother at all, "But I haven't seen you around before. If I had, I'd surely remember a girl as beautiful as you."
Eriko giggled nervously, even though that was the oldest line in the book. "I just arrived on the island," she explained, "I'm Eriko Tenji."
"I'm Akira Kamizawa," he grinned and Eriko felt her skip a beat.
Then she felt the cold of the ice cream dripping onto her hand. She shivered before looking down at the cones in her hand and remembering something very important.
Yuki.
She blushed, "Um...sorry, I've got to get this ice cream to my boyfriend."
Akira looked visibly disappointed at the word boyfriend and Eriko felt ashamedly giddy at that. Other than Yuki, no other guy had ever been interested in her before.
Other than Yuki...
She turned away from Akira, starting towards Yuki. She cast a smile over her shoulder, "See you around the island." And she guiltilyhoped ever so dearly so.
She sat down beside Yuki on her blanket. "Here you go, baby."
Yuki blinked, looking over the Death Note. "Where'd the ice cream come from?"
Eriko sighed, handing him the ice cream. Her head rested in her hand while her other hand held the ice cream. As she ate her ice cream, her eyes scanned the beach for Akira. She felt guilty, but not as guilty as before.
She has guy friends. Her very best friend is a guy. She was sure Yuki wouldn't mind if she had one more.
Once she spotted Akira, her heart did a cartwheel, and she cast a cautious look at Yuki. His ice cream was drenching his fingers but he was too busy reading Death Note to even notice. She bit her lip, gaining her resolve.
She finished her ice cream and stood up. "Yuki, I'll be right back."
"Mmm," was Yuki's response.
Eriko rolled her eyes before making a beeline for Akira who smiled and waved when he spotted her. Her guilt was quickly overshadowed by her happiness.
...Meanwhile...
Sango stepped out of the hotel, she put her hand on her forehead, shielding her eyes from the sun as she scanned the beach. Where the hell is Miroku? He was supposed to be helping her unpack but he went to ask the front desk something. She checked the front desk and they said he left before he even got his answer.
Sango wasn't surprised. She had one guess as to what distracted him so strongly. And her guess was confirmed when she saw him in a swarm of girls. Her eyes narrowed, she made a move to march towards him and drag him back after giving him a good punch and a kick.
But she stopped when he and the gaggle of girls laughed. She felt a sharp pain in her heart. He was having fun with these strangers. With these other girls.
She blinked rapidly as she felt her eyes fill with tears.
"Sango?"
Sango stopped as she felt Inuyasha's hand on her shoulder. She turned around and there he was with a look of confusion on his face.
"Why are you just standing here?"
Sango sighed, she cast a look at Miroku before shaking her head. She grabbed Inuyasha's arm. "Let's go back inside, I'll tell you."
Inuyasha blinked, confused but obliged. "It is too fucking bright out here."
Anyone catch the reference to The Best Vacation Ever? Doubt it.
Anyways, sorry for the extra long wait but I've set a goal to finish at least one ff this summer and to update all of them constantly. Hopefully I manage it.
Thanks for all those that miraculously stuck around,
