**An Vacation to Remember**

Kagome Higurashi smiled anxiously as she hugged her family for the last time for the next month. She was going on an vacation to Kyoto by herself in celebration of graduating high school at the top of her class and couldn't be more excited. She would be staying at an well known plaza called Hana Palace with an large sweet of her own and have as much fun as she wished! It was like an adventure looming ahead that she wished to start right away.
After saying her goodbyes though, of course.
"I wanna go on an vacation like you sis!" Souta whined, as he hugged her waist.
"When you graduate with perfect scores you can... if you survive school that long..." She teased lightly while ruffling the boy's hair.
She detached herself from the sever year old and moved to her Grandfather for an farewell hug but she suddenly felt him press something in to her palm. Kagome looked down to see an small stack of sutras' and wards placed in her pale, slender hand.
"When you arrive place these around your room to banish any evil spirits that may try to harm you..." He instructed in serious tones. She sighed and rolled her eyes in exasperation but the smile never left her face.
"Gramps..."
"What?" He questioned innocently. She enfolded him in to an bear hug before slipping the wards in her pocket so as not to offend the elderly Shinto priest.
Finally she turned to her mother whom looked like she was ready to cry because 'her baby was all grown up.'
"All your reservations are confirmed right?" She asked in instinctual maternal worry. Kagome pulled her into an warm embrace spoke assuredly
"Yes Mama. They've been set for the past two months."
"Well, if your positive..." Her mother murmured.
They stood like that for an moment longer before she stepped back and glanced at her three family members, suddenly feeling reluctant to leave them.
"Will everything be alright while I'm gone?" She asked
Her mother nodded.
"Yes dear, we can make do..."
Kagome bobbed her head before leaving for the taxi parked outside filled with her suitcase, knapsack , and other nessicities for the four week long trip.
Climbing in to the backseat of the vehicle that would take her all the way to her destination, Kagome waved to her family and heard her mother cry out
"Have an wonderful time honey! Don't forget to call!"
"I won't!" She laughed before slamming the door shut. The taxi pulled away from the curb, on to the busy street.
Kagome settled in to her seat while pulling out an thick paperback book form her knapsack and turned to the marked page to start reading. It was an long drive and her excitement levels were already mounting greatly. The printed words swam before her as an lopsided grin found its way to her lips. If she couldn't read... she could always start an game of 'are we there yet?' with the drive.
She beamed.
This couldn't get any better.

This couldn't get any worse.
Kagome stared at the employee before her wearing an pressed, crisp white shirt, covered by an tidy black vest, smiling cheerfully as if she had not just spoken Kagome's worse fear.
She opened her mouth and said the only coherent word her mind would allow to tumble out of her mouth.
"Wha...?"
Ingenious. She was utterly and completely the smartest person alive with her wide array of vocabulary.
"I said, miss Higurashi, that our staff has some how accidentally overbooked our rooms. If you'd like we can transfer you to another local hotel at an 30% discount or you could..." The girl led off and Kagome leaned forward in renewed hope.
"Yes..?"
".. Or you can share the sweet with its current occupant.."
The teen slumped against the counter gloomily.
She KNEW it was to good to be true.
Kagome had really been looking forward to staying at this hotel but... with an complete stranger?
She could, Kagome resolved.
She was friendly and if she tried some old fashion chivalry, she could surely still enjoy her vacation in this dream hotel. Looking up as she straightened her back and spoke as calmly as she could,
"Alright then. I don't mind sharing an room with someone."
The member of the staff nodded jubilantly as she set the key card for her room before the tourist.
"Good! I will notify him of your arrival as soon as he returns!"
Kagome stiffened.
"'He?'"
The cheery girl nodded. Kagome bit her lip.
THAT could be an problem... She quickly covered her skepticism with an pleasant smile asking
"If you could be so kind, could you give me his name so we may evade awkward moments when we meet...?"
"Sure!" She turned and started clicking on an keyboard beside her and gazed at the monitor. After an moment she scribbled something on to piece of paper before handing it to Kagome.
"There you go! Once again the Hana Palace management apologizes for this inconvenience. We hope you enjoy your stay. Have an good day!"
Kagome nodded, as she grabbed her key card and grasped her luggage once again in her grasp. Curiously looking down, she opened the note and read the single scrawled title.
Sesshoumaru Taiyoukai.
She frowned.
What kind of name was that? Kagome wondered as an involuntary shiver ran down her spine.
No bother... she supposed but her natural curiosity was still ticking away mental possibilities even as she rode the elevator up to level 4 and walked to the large door labeled 'room 367' and slid her card soundlessly through the lock.
Kagome turned the knob and stepped inside, gliding her hand over the nearest wall for an light switch in the dimly lit room.
Feeling it against her fingertips she flicked it on and instantly gasped in amazement.
"Wow..." She whispered as she closed the door behind her dazedly. The walls were painted an soothes beige color with white moldings. Large glass sliding doors were on the other side with heavy draped pulled over them concealing the fact they led to an large balcony overlooking the city. An large bathroom was to her right complete with Jacuzzi. In the main room, against the wall was an microwave and mini refrigerator. In the large living space was an king side bed with crimson silk sheets covering it and accented lamps bolted to the walls on either side of it. In the middle was an stylish couch matching the room's theme and an Toshiba TV across from it against the opposite wall.
Kagome smiled and dropped herself on to the bed.
It was so soft-- like heaven in mattress.
Her entire body was relaxing when all of an sudden one vital thought struck her, making her eyes snap open.
If she was sharing this room...
Who was getting the bed?
