Seasonal Arrivals
The tour has ended and our favorite acapella group is heading home for the holidays. The tour was a success and what a success it was! Shinigami 6 gained more fans and support than they ever could have imagined.
Let's join in on our little troupe on their flight home...
"Hey how about 1 more song? Just for the heck of it!" Ren exclaimed.
"Whyyyy? We just did so much singing, and now you want to do more singing?" Sayomi whined, hoping against hope that Ren was joking.
"Just one more song you big baby. Just for fun...PLEASE!" Ren pleaded, folding his hands together and giving her...wait for it...the puppy dog eyes. Let's just say he could tie with Inuyasha. Yes, he was that good.
It wasn't long until Sayomi caved in. And then glared at everyone else for laughing during the entire ordeal.
"What song?" Sayomi asked.
"Um...how about Comin' Home?" Ren asked.
"Why not, should be fun!" Rin interceded.
So for the remainder of the flight they sang that song, and (unwillingly on Sayomi's part) many others to pass the time. Rin not knowing of the surprise that awaited her at the end of the airport terminal.
-at the airport-
So everything is all in place... I have the ring, the group is ready to perform, my friends and family are with me, and hopefully that darned Sayomi kept her mouth shut. Sesshomaru contemplated.
"You ready Sesshy?" Inuyasha teased completely ignoring the death glare 'Sesshy' was throwing in his direction.
SMACK!
"OW! What was that for?" Inuyasha asked his dad while rubbing the back of his head. "That's for being a smart-ass...son."
Sesshomaru silently thanking Inutaisho for interceding on his behalf.
Static comes over the intercom, "...Arrivals for Southwest, releasing at terminal 7C."
"That's you Sesshomaru. Good luck!" Izayoi said, hugging him and giving him that little bit of encouragement he knew he needed. So slightly nodding to Izayoi, he made his way over to the terminal.
-On the plane-
"Remember guys, we have to be off the plane before Rin, so we can get into position." Ren reminded them.
"I'm so excited about this! Rin will be so surprised!"
"Will everyone please put your seat into its upright position, and remain seated until the light appears in the dock above your head and/or your hostesses inform you otherwise. Thank you, and we hope you enjoyed your flight on Southwest."
"Here comes Rin! Act natural." Sayomi said.
"Yes, cause jumping up and down in your seat is natural." Ren chuckled, receiving a hard slap to the head afterward.
"What did Ren do this time?" Rin asked with a knowing smile on her face.
"What doesn't he do?" Akihiro replied laughing.
"Thanks man, thanks," Ren said glaring at Akihiro. Sayomi and Rin laughing all the way through the landing.
The lights above their heads went on, and within several seconds everyone but Rin had managed to get their stuff and start heading off the plane. 'How in the world did they get off the plane so fast?' rin thought to herself chuckling at her friends antics. 'I hope that Sesshomaru came,' Rin thought, not knowing of the wonderful surprise just a few feet away.
-At the terminal-
Sesshomaru notices people begin to get off, one by one the group emerges. First Sayomi, then Ren, Akihiro, Jun, and Satoshi. Knowing Rin was on her way, he walked toward the terminal exit, unknowingly splitting the crowd like Moses and the Red Sea. He stopped and stood, his breath catching in his throat. For there, making her way towards him, was Rin.
As soon as Rin saw Sesshomaru, she ran as fast as she could! As soon as she exited the terminal she threw off her carry on, and launched herself into Sesshomaru's arms. He caught her and they spun for a moment before enveloping each other in a passionate kiss. As they kissed, Shinigami 6 and Lady Antebellum, who Sesshomaru had flown in, began to sing Need You Now.
Sesshomaru, realizing this was his cue, took Rin's hands and gently began to say...
"Rin. Remember the evening that you told me you we're going to leave to tour?" Rin nods in reply. "Well I had wanted to stop you right then and there. It broke my heart watching you leave, fully knowing you were going to come back. Throughout my time without you I realized how desperately I needed you in my life. I couldn't function without you near me. But what I wanted to tell you, was that when we were alone that night, sitting together, I had wanted you to be mine...and I still do. So Rin..." Sesshomaru begins, getting down on one knee, "...Will you marry me?"
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Rin kissed him with every ounce of her being.
"I'll take that as a yes," Satoshi stated laughing with happiness.
-after the proposal-
After thanking Lady Antebellum for helping, Lady A (as I like to call them) departed, leaving the happy couple to relish in each other's embrace...and get attacked with congratulations by everyone they forgot was there.
I finally got back to working on this! YAY! I got a job, which means I've got even less time to work on these stories, and I already lack the capacity to update on a semi-regular basis...CRAP (excuse my language)! For those that are still sticking with this story...you ROCK! I hope to finish this story soon enough to start posting the sequal to She's Mine To Protect.
Other than that, I own Ren, Sayomi, Satoshi, Akihiro, and Jun. Nothing else is mine, except for my love of everything Inuyasha. However I don't own Inu & Co., any songs mentioned, Lady A, "etcetera, etcetera, etcetera". If you get that reference...thank gosh! It means there's hope for this world yet! Kidding! Way to go if you do get that, and if you don't...ask your parents or grandparents, or google it.
Did you know, this chapter is a bit of a play on words. I was inspired to title it after my timing to update and how it's a seasonal arrival for the story, and the scene takes place during this holiday season and it's at an airport (I'm pretty sure that second part was obvious).
Anyways...
I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and please don't forget to review! Thanks so much, and love you all! If I don't update before Christmas...MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
