Sweet Summer Trip Catastrophe

I literally deleted this chapter and wrote it all over. After opening up these files and reading my old chapters over, I actually grimaced because of my terrible grammar. Also, I forgot to thank my friend Kate who got me back in the spirits of writing this story again, you're awesome!

xbittersweet: Thanks for pointing those out for me! I fixed the summary and I'll correct the mistakes in the first chapter too!

Mila2504: Thanks a lot! You got me all elated. Hmm… and how long does it take me to edit? Well, you'd be surprised – I guess the way I write has changed over the months so I do a lot of deleting and typing. It could take me… a few hours, or even more.

Shamanic Destiny: Wow! You're going to Australia? That's awesome! If you ever stop by Sydney, be sure to check out my old school! Rainbow. S. Ask around, maybe someone remembers me. You'll have a blast in Australia, believe me – it's fun. Haha, thanks a bunch (you're idea was fun, I'll be sure to use it for a later chapter), and you didn't have to wait long either – I updated as soon as the next day.

Sanci: Hey! Thanks for your input. Well, Sango, Rin and Kagome are sixteen as mentioned earlier; Inu-Yasha's a year older and so far, no one else has introduced so my lips are sealed.

Chapter Two

A Plane Flight

x.x

Kagome couldn't help but tap her foot impatiently as the students in front of her slowly checked in their boarding passes. The announcement had been made more than a few minutes ago and the checking was taking too much time from her point of view. Letting out a sigh of relief as her turn came up; she unzipped the front pocket of her hand bag and searched for her ticket.

"Miss, could you hurry up? People are waiting in line."

Kagome panicked as her ticket was no where in sight. Dreading the horror of having it fallen out of her bag, she zipped the front pocket up and went for the side pockets. "One minute please, I must've misplaced it."

"Since when did your bag have side pockets, Kagome?" Rin asked, peeking at her bag.

Not bothering to answer as she was in too much of a hurry to find the ticket, Kagome opened the left zipper after seeing it wasn't in any of the side pockets.

"Miss, if you can't find your ticket… please step aside…" The stewardess drawled out pathetically.

Shaking her head, Kagome unzipped the right pocket and breathed a sigh of relief as she saw a ticket squashed in its quarters. Picking it up lightly, she handed it to the impatiently stewardess without any hesitance.

"Alright, walk down the terminal, into the plane and straight to business class. You're seat is 07 B. Enjoy your flight." The stewardess pulled open the gate, and was waiting for Kagome to pass through but she achieved no such thing.

"Wait, my seat is in the business class?" Kagome ignored the expression of frustration on the stewardess's face and continued on. "I'm more than certain I'm supposed to be in economy."

The stewardess sighed. "I'm sorry miss, but your ticket says business. Please pass through and enjoy the flight." This time, she motioned for Kagome to pass through.

Crunching her forehead, Kagome stepped through the gate into the hollow terminal. Stopping to check her hand bag, she raised an eyebrow she processed what Rin had said earlier. When had her hand bag gotten side pockets? She was going to open the main zipper when Sango and Rin walked up from behind her.

"That was dramatic to watch." Sango pointed out as she stopped beside Kagome.

Rin however, had something else to talk about. "You're in the business class? That's not right. Our tickets only cost us so little because we're traveling in economy."

"I know." Unzipping the main zipper, she raised her eyebrows as she saw the contents. "I never had a black leather wallet in my bag." Taking the wallet out, she opened it. "What in the world?" Pulling out hundred dollar bills, Kagome gaped in surprise as she counted the money. This was definitely not her hand bag. Surfing through the wallet, a picture in the picture frame caught her attention.

It was a family. A single mother was hugging two teenage boys, her long black hair clashing with the color of her sons' hair. One of the two teenage boys seemed a stranger like she had expected yet the other… It was the boy she had accidentally collided with. "This isn't my bag." She said out loud as passengers walked by them.

"We kind of figured that already," Sango was about to grab the wallet when Rin snatched it first.

Peering closely at the photo, she grinned as she looked closely at one of the teenage boys. "The boy on the left looks so cute! Especially with that Nike hat and red t-shirt."

Kagome rolled her eyes as she took back the wallet. She was pissed, not only had she met the most arrogant boy in her life, but she had switched hand bags with him as well. Continuing her walk throughout the terminal, she quickly made her way into the airplane and to economy. "What am I supposed to do?"

"Let's find the guy who has your handbag, you'll switch tickets with him and you can come sit with us in economy." Grabbing her best friends arm, Sango pulled her through the rows of seats. They were just about to pass through to the business class where they hoped the boy with Kagome's class would be sitting when their homeroom teacher called out their names.

"Sango, Rin, Kagome, I expect you to find your seats rather than wander around. The business class is off limits – understand?"

Flinching, Kagome turned around. "But I have to meet someone there…"

"Nonsense, hurry up and get to your seats." With that, the old lady turned back and walked towards a pack of other classmates. "Yura, keep that level of your voice down…"

Frowning as Kagome followed her friends to their seats, she hesitantly sat beside Sango on a vacant seat. Making sure her teacher wasn't listening; she turned back to her friends. "You guys, what do I do?"

"Well, the only way to get into the business class is if our homeroom teacher walks out of the plane."

Kagome glanced back at her teacher. "She has to go back outside to make sure no one left anything."

Sango shrugged then tried grabbing the bag. "In the meantime, check what's inside his bag."

Kagome hesitated. "What if -." Then remembering how rude the boy had been to her, she nodded. He was probably searching through her bag as well. "Fine…"

Unzipping the bag once again, she pulled out a few bottles. "Cologne… liquid soap…" Handing them over for her friends to examine, she searched deeper in the bag. Letting out a 'oh la, la.' as she found a pair of sunglasses, she took them out. "These look so hot."

"He seems pretty wealthy. All these things are practically the best brand." Rin pointed out as she took out a cell phone from the bag.

Kagome shrugged it off. As she looked thoroughly in the bag, she was getting bored from its contents when she noticed a blue box. Raising her eyebrows, she picked it up. "What's this?" She asked as she turned the box around, looking for a way to open it. Finding a lock on the side, she clicked it open and gasped as she saw a delicate necklace on its velvet pouch. "Whoa, hey – look at this."

Sango raised an eyebrow as she looked at the necklace, unaffected by its beauty. "Why is a guy carrying around a necklace?"

Kagome turned the box over, surprising herself again as she saw a little note stuck to it. "It says here it's for his mother."

Rin smiled. "Aw, he loves his mother – that's cute."

Kagome brushed it off. Rin hadn't seen how he really was. Picking up the necklace, she thought twice before clipped it around her neck. She didn't intend on keeping it. All she wanted to do was see how it would look on her. Touching the cool diamonds on the necklace, she grabbed Rin's pocket mirror and glanced at herself.

She smiled. "This is so pretty."

"Alright students, I'll be back in one minute – I'm just going to make sure no one left anything outside. No one move." The homeroom teacher quickly pointed towards Sango, Kagome and Rin before stepping out of the plane.

Quickly jumping out of her seat, Rin pulled Kagome. "Let's go! We only have a few minutes."

Kagome quickly put the box, wallet, bottles, sunglasses and clothes back into the bag. Zipping up the zipper, she got out of her seat and brushed down her skirt.

Glancing towards her friends, Kagome quickly whispered for Sango to make sure that if their teacher returned, she didn't notice them gone while Rin and her made their way to the business class. Quickly running through the curtains which separated the classes, she ran out of economy with Rin tagging behind. Surprisingly, the class was filled with boys. Trying to remain calm as a few head turned around to see which girls came through, she skimmed her eyes throughout the business class.

One thing for sure was that the business class was definitely luxurious, better than economy at least. Spotting the same guy in the picture, one of which she thought as a stranger – she made her way through the rows until she reached him.

As she approached the boy, she heard Rin squeal as she recognized the boy to be the same one she had seen in the photo. "Um, hey." She started off, gaining more attention from the passengers sitting around the teen.

Looking up from his black hat, his amber eyes could be distinctly seen as he watched them. "Yeah?"

"I think I switched bags with one of your friends, could you mind giving it back to him?" She was handing the bag to the teen when the boy she had collided with ran up to the seats.

Looking as if he had run, he glared at Kagome, "I can't believe what just happened." Taking in quick breaths, he squeezed in front of Kagome and sat down on the seat beside the teen that looked distinctively like his older brother. "I wasn't allowed in business class because of some lousy ticket that said I was in economy."

Kagome felt annoyance hitch up in her. It was the same guy she had bumped into. "Apparently, that lousy ticket – is mine, so hand it back."

Snapping his eyes straight towards Kagome, he narrowed his eyebrows. "Because of you, I had to go through hell. I-."

"Listen mister, I didn't exactly have the time of my life either." Throwing his bag on his lap, she reached out her hand to get her own. "Give me back my bag."

Glaring at her for her speaking back, he threw her hand bag back into her hands. "Next time, watch out."

"You shouldn't be speaking; you were the one who collided into me." Making a face at him before turning away, she blocked out whatever he said back and walked straight out of the business class. Before she could walk through the curtains, a strong hand grabbed her arm.

"Hey there, I saw you talking back there with Sesshomaru and Inu-Yasha, sorry about Inu-Yasha's behavior, he can act like real punks sometimes." Smirking, the teen who had grabbed her hand pulled her back a few feet into the business class. "I'm Kouga, why don't you stay for a while?"

Kagome glanced at Rin for help which she provided by pulling Kagome away. "Sorry, but my friend and I have to go…" Quickly pushing Kagome in front of herself, Rin walked straight to economy. Apparently, her school wasn't the only school hosting an excursion to travel to Australia. A whole other boy school was traveling with them too.

Stalking back to her seat, with her real ticket, Kagome breathed a sigh of relief as she took a seat on her plush chair. "I can't believe the nerve of that guy." She breathed out as she quickly opened her bag to make sure everything was in it.

Sango shrugged and focused her attention more on the blushing Rin. "What's up with you?"

Rin giggled. "I just met the guy in the photo. Believe me Sango; he's even cuter in real life."

Kagome looked up from her bag. "You mean Sesshomaru?"

"How'd you know his name?"

"The guy who grabbed me told me, and apparently the boy who had my bag was Inu-Yasha."

Sango looked between Kagome and Rin. While Kagome looked peeved, Rin was elated. "And did you talk to Sesshomaru?"

Sitting down on the seat beside Kagome, Rin shook her head. "Not exactly, but he did look at me from under his cap."

Sango laughed in disbelief, sometimes – Rin could be so clueless. "Anyway, when do you think we're going to take off?"

As if her answer had been heard, the speakers in the plane lit up. "All attendants - please buckle your seatbelts. Keep your chair upright and your belongings to yourself. Do not get up from your seat during liftoff. If need of an emergency, please page the airhosts. We will be taking off in a matter of a few minutes, and will be reaching Sydney, Australia on June first, one-o-clock a.m. Enjoy your flight."

Kagome grinned nevertheless. Even though her trip had started out rough, things seemed to be turning up. She couldn't wait to leave Japan to reach Australia. She reached down and buckled her seatbelt and waited for the plane to lift off.

Rin squirmed in her seat. "Hey guys, I really need to use the bathroom."

Widening her eyes in disbelief, Sango scoffed. "Are you kidding me? Why didn't you go before we boarded the plane?"

"We didn't have any time! You think there's a washroom in here?" Leaning to the right to see if there was a washroom upfront, she perked up as she saw a small room at the end of the lane. "Aw man, I've got to wait until we can take off our seatbelts."

It didn't take long though. After good five minutes, the plane started moving. As soon as it finished its course on the runaway, it lifted off the ground. Easy to say, Sango held her ears due to the pressure building because of the lift off.

As soon as the speakers came back on to tell them they had a successful liftoff and they were free to unbuckle themselves, Rin jumped out of her seat and ran to the washroom. Checking the sign to make sure no one was in it first, she turned the knob after seeing it was vacant.

But as soon as she walked into the washroom, she yelped as she saw a guy standing right in front of her. Quickly retreating, she slammed herself on the bathroom door and to her misfortune, whatever he was holding spilled onto her shirt. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry for barging in!"

The guy frowned. "Err… well; I shouldn't have spilt that stuff over you."

Blinking, she calmed her nerves and looked down. She was in the washroom with the same guy in the photograph, in other words – Sesshomaru. Gulping as she realized he had spilt something rotten on her shirt, she grimaced. "What is all this?"

He hesitated. "It's just something I had decided to put in the toilet for a prank…"

She made a face of disgust. "It's brown."

At this, Sesshomaru held in a laugh. "It's just wet tissues mixed with brown coloring, the guys in my class made it for a prank so don't worry."

Rin sighed, obviously distraught. She was about to wash it all off from her own hands when Sesshomaru pulled out a bunch of toilet paper. "Wipe it off and here, I'll give you my shirt to wear."

Trying not to sound surprised, Rin took the toilet paper and wiped off all the tissues. As soon as she had done so, Sesshomaru took off his black shirt, revealing at least four more layers underneath. Taking it, she pulled it on.

"I have tons of T-shirts, so don't bother returning that one." Squeezing past her, he opened the door and stepped out.

She was about to say thanks when he shut the door, blocking her voice out. "Uh…"

For a moment there, Rin stood simply as she looked at herself in the mirror. It was only a moment before… "Oh my god!" Jumping up, she grabbed the shirt, pulled it up to her nose and inhaled. He even smelt good. Giggling like a madman, she couldn't wait to get back to her friends to tell the news.

Oh, but first – she had to pee.

Kagome flipped the page of the magazine she was reading. They were three hours into the flight and she had absolutely nothing else to do but bore around. Rin had come back with her little 'story' of what had happened inside the washroom and since then, she still hadn't changed out of his shirt into something comfier.

Still, even though she was distracting herself – one voice kept ringing in her head.

"I wasn't allowed in business class because of some lousy ticket that said I was in economy."

She flickered her eyes for a mere second at the curtain which divided the classes. If she had the chance to stay longer at the business class, she would've yelled her head off. At least she'd never have to see him again.

Little did she know how wrong she was, completely forgetting that she still had on his necklace.
