Ayame and Sango followed Kagome into the most expensive shop in the gigantic mall they were in. Both of them were nursing two very sore wrists from being dragged into the mall by a very excited Kagome who kept on complaining they were walking far to slow.
"Geeze, Kagome I think you popped my wrist out of its socket..." Ayame whined rubbing her already very red wrist. Her whines went unnoticed by her two best friends.
"Uh, Kags? Not that I don't love shopping or anything, but couldn't we go to another store? I don't think we can afford these dresses..." Sango said looking at a price tag on one of the dresses that were supposedly 20% off.
"Sango, we could, but this ball is being hosted by a multi-billion dollar company! The richest people from New York, the country, maybe even the WORLD, are going to be there! We'd be out of place if we showed up wearing some cheap dress." Kagome explained.
"But Kagome, these dresses cost hundreds upon hundreds of dollars! We can't afford them." Sango tried to explain to her friend who was looking at what were probably the most expensive dresses in the store.
"Ooo! Sango look at this one!" Kagome gasped holding out a gorgeous dress fit for a queen. It was a deep maroon with white embroidery around the low oval neck. It had three-quarter length sleeves with a small ruffle at the end. The bottom half of the dress flared out slightly.
Sango walked up to Kagome who was holding the dress up to her and looking at it affectionately. She looked at the price tag attached to the sleeve. Ayame peeked over Sango's shoulder to see the price. Her eye went wide, as did Sango's. "Kagome, I could make you a dress that looked exactly like this one for a tenth of the price!" Sango said.
"I think we should go to a different store..." Ayame said still looking at the price tag in awe. "There is no way I can afford anything here!"
"Same with me." Sango said taking the dress out of Kagomes hands and putting it back up on the rack. "Come on Kags, there a David's Bridal store a few shops down." Sango hooked arms with Kagome and Ayame and walked out of the store.

"Don't look so depressed Kags," Ayame exclaimed to her pouting best friend. "I know it's not as high quality as the other store but at least we can afford it here!"
"Besides, If you look hot, no ones going to car how much your dress cost," Sango piped in while scanning through the rack full of elegant dresses.
"But that other dress was perfect!" Kagome whined. "Why can't I have a dress like that one?"
"Uh, you mean like this one that's a fraction of the cost of that other one?" Ayame asked holding out a dress that was almost identical to the dress they had seen in the other more expensive store. The only change was that it was a brighter red and wasn't made of the exact same material.
Kagome gasped and snatched the dress out of Ayame's hands. "It's in my size too!" She gaped. With that, Kagome ran into the dressing rooms and out of sight.
"Well, that was easy," Ayame, giggled as her friend left.
"Ayame, this one here would look great on you..." Sango said taking a silky light purple dress of the rack. It was a low cut, v-neck halter with a very low back. It was form fitting and flared out when it got to the knees (A/N: Think the sort of thing Kate Hudson wears in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days only different...). It also had a decorative belt around the hips with a sparkling "Diamond" buckle.
"Ooo..." Ayame gawked, taking the dress from Sango. "Me likey..." Ayame's eyes drifted from the dress in her hands to one next on the rack next to her. "And this Sango," She pulled the dress off the rack and held it out for her friend to see, "would look amazing on you."
The dress was a shiny almost black navy blue that shone a blue in the light. Hit had one strap on the left shoulder and none on the right. It poofed out at the hips. "Very nice... lets go try these on." Sango said, take the dress Ayame had picked out for her and heading towards the dressing rooms.

The girls spent the whole afternoon and part of the evening trying on different dresses that they picked out for one another, until finally they settled on the ones they all agreed they looked the best in (A/N: You'll find out what they look like when we get to the ball... next chapter I think). After they had paid for the dresses they headed to MacDonald's for some good old fries and hamburgers (Ayame had refused to cook for Kagome and Sango), then headed back to Kagome and Sangos apartment for the rest of the evening to watch chick flicks and eat popcorn.

The next night, Ayame's grandfather was having one of business meetings/dinner, so Ayame was cooking. She had been busy making her spaghetti since she had got off work. Its was nearing five o'clock when the door bell rang. Thankfully it wasn't the man that her grandpa was meeting, unluckily though, it was Riku along with a few others from the company. Riku helped her set up the table much to her dislike, and insisted on helping her with the meal.
"Don't touch," Ayame screamed, whacking the back of Riku's hand with a spoon as he tried to take a taste of the spaghetti sauce. "You'll contaminate it!"
"Well, what else should I do?" Riku questioned, enjoying the close proximity he and Ayame shared at the moment.
"Take the Garlic bread out of the oven before it burns." Ayame stated grabbing some oven mitts and shoving them at him.
Riku took the mitts and slipped them on. He took out the garlic bread and paced it on the counter top, staring at it hungrily. "This looks so good..." He said, drooling a little.
"Don't even think about it!" Ayame said walking over and pushing him away from the bread and began cutting it.
"Need any help?" He said in a low seductive voice, leaning over her shoulder.
Ayame shivered at his closeness and tone of voice. "Be a dear and get some wine out of the cellar would you"
"Be back in a flash," Riku said in that same low voice as he walked out of the room.
Ayame sighed in relief as she place the bread in a basket and went out into the dining room and set in on the table. Riku sauntered into the room with some red wine in hand. "Pour the same amount into every wine glass." Ayame ordered as she walked back into the kitchen to make the salad. That took about 3 minutes. She walked back into the dinning room and put the freshly made salad on the table as well. At this time the doorbell rang. Ayame rushed back into the kitchen to finish putting the spaghetti together. She was just adding the finishing touches when she heard voices in the dinning room and the sound of people eating (the salad and bread). She picked up two plates at a time and went out into the dining room and set them down in front of each seated person.
"Aaah, Mr.Walkin meet my grand daughter Ayame. She makes the worlds best spaghetti as you will soon discover for yourself." Ayame's grandfather announced as the others from his company nodded in agreement, each having already tasted her fine cooking.
"It's nice to meet you, Ayame." Mr. Walkins, an attractive middle-aged man with fair skin and dark hair and eyes, said.
"You too." Ayame said cheerily as she placed a plate in front of him. She went back into the kitchen and came back with two more plates placing them in front of two of the men from her grandfathers company. She did the cycle once more placing plates in front of Riku and her grandfather.
"This tastes amazing..." Mr. Walkins exclaimed before Ayame to leave the room. "You are an amazing chef miss Porter."
"Thank you Mr. Walkins." Ayame said blushing a little.
"I'm going to tell my brother about you... He owns a restaurant in New Orleans, he said something about wanting to open another here in New York, you may be just the chef he's looking for." Mr. Walking said with a cheery smile plastered on his face.
"Are you serious? I-I've always wanted to be a chef..." Ayame said in shock.
"I'm very serious, I'll have him give you a call sometime." Mr.Walkins said taking another bite. "Mmmm..."
"Thank you once again Mr. Walkins, you have no idea what this means to me..." Ayame exclaimed, her heart pumping rather fast. She gave the man a bear hug before running back into the kitchen.
After cleaning up Ayame left the house. She didn't like sticking around during her grandfathers meetings, especially the ones Riku was at. Plus, she had to tell Kagome and Sango the great news. She loved her life right now!

A/N YAY! another chapter! this is probably gonna be the last one before school (gags) starts again on teusday. It's now Friday, that just shows how slow i am at writing these things. And it's another short chapter. I knew it was gonna be.
Riku creeps me out... I always do that with made up characters... they always creep me out.
Ok and so I've been doing alot of thinking about this story. I've been busy most of this week but I've been thinking while awake at night. And of course I've come up with a great idea... to happen towards the end of the story. Oh, it's gonna be great. Once I post this I'm gonna make a little summary of whats going to happen later on so that I dont forget when it comes time to write it. oh its gonna be great.
You know whats funny. I just wrote that whole thing with the spaghetti, and I'm about to have spaghetti for supper... yummm... yay for italian food!
anyways I gotta go have supper before it gets too cold (it was ready like half and hour ago, i just havent been hungry). Until next time, toodles!
