WE'RE LATE!
Birds were singing, the sky was clear and blue, and the sun's golden rays shone through the window and onto Kagome's sleeping body and eyelids, managing to slightly rouse her from her slumber. With a yawn she cracked her eyes open a tiny bit and glanced at the clock and then promptly snuggled back down into the soft, warm bed. After a moment she bolted into sitting position and looked once again at her clock 'Oh no! I'm going to be late! Why didn't mum wake me up?' she thought with a groan. Quickly she got out of her bed and made it, after that she grabbed her suitcase and put it on the bed, then grabbed the pair of black jeans, aquamarine halter top and lingerie that she'd had the foresight of setting out the night before and raced to the bathroom for a quick shower.
Kagome came out of the bathroom dressed but still drying her damp ebony hair with a towel, after combing it out she put it in a loose ponytail to keep it relatively tame for the day ahead, knowing that when it was her turn to drive she didn't want it blowing in her face. She quickly added some pale lip gloss, mascara and light aqua eye shadow then she looked over her room for anything that she might have left out of her bag the night before. After she was sure she wasn't forgetting anything and she had put her comb and make-up back into the bag she glanced at her clock. It was exactly eight o'clock, she sighed softly as she walked over to her desk 'Looks like there isn't going to be any time for breakfast'. Kagome picked up her hand bag, after checking that everything was in there she grabbed her mobile phone and dialled Sango's number.
"Hello?" came the familiar yet faintly groggy voice. "Is that you Kagome?"
"Yeah it's me," Kagome said then added, "You aren't still in bed are you?" she quite surprised at this, she was the one who was always late not Sango. Who was almost always Miss Punctuality.
"What do you mean am I still in bed? Of course I am!" Sango said irritably wanting nothing more than to go back to sleep. She'd been having quite a nice dream too, "So what are you calling me for?"
"Because its eight o'clock that's why," Kagome said with a grin. "And you're going to be late for us leaving for our trip!"
"What!" came Sango's shrill cry as she jumped out of bed and started running around madly trying to get things in order when she glanced at her bedside clock and stopped with a sigh. Then after calming down slightly she continued, "No it's not, it's only just after seven o'clock. Don't scare me like that!"
"It is?" Kagome asked slightly bemused. "My clock says eight."
"Maybe someone put it forward so that you wouldn't sleep in and be late like normal?" she teased.
"Who me?" Kagome asked innocently, "I'm never late!"
"Yeah right," she said with a chuckle. "Anyway thanks for waking me up, I haven't finished packing yet! I might have been late if you hadn't. See you in about an hour!"
"Okay I'll see you then! 'Bye," Kagome said as she hung up her call. With a gleam to her eye she placed it back in the hand bag, after swinging it over her shoulder and picking up her suitcase she made her way downstairs. She almost forgave her mum on the spot when the smell of pancakes filled her nose.
Kagome placed her bags in the lounge room and then followed the smell of pancakes back into the kitchen. "Good morning Kagome," her mum said, not looking up from making the pancakes.
"Hey mum! The pancakes smell great," Kagome said as she sat down at the table. "So where's Souta?"
"Oh he left about ten minutes ago to go and see Kohaku," she said setting down a plate of pancakes in front of Kagome. "I have to say I'm surprised that you're up and ready in time."
Kagome put syrup on her pancakes and ate a mouthful as she looked at her disbelieving, "Yeah well it could have something to do with the fact that someone put my clock forward an hour. I wonder who would do such a thing," she said staring at her mother's back.
"Okay, okay, enough of the guilt trip," her mum said with a grin as she turned around with another plate of pancakes for herself and sat at the table. "But I only did it so that you wouldn't be late for your holiday; I know how much you've been looking forward to it."
"I guess its okay, at least you didn't set the alarm and scare me to death," Kagome said pushing her now empty plate away. "And it's nice not to be late for once."
"I actually didn't think it had worked," her mum said as she continued to eat her pancakes. "I was just about to go wake you up."
"Well I'm ready," Kagome said and made her way into the lounge room to wait for the others.
-----------------------
A sharp knock came from the door and with a groan Kagome muted the TV and slowly stood up from the soft couch. "I'll get it!" She called and with a small stretch she walked to the door and opened it to find a tall, cute, silver haired guy at her door. "Inuyasha!" she cried giving him a small hug which he returned lightly. 'He's so cute!' she thought silently as she took in the dark tight fitting jeans and a red t-shirt that said 'Who asked you' in black letters.
"Hey Kags," Inuyasha said with a grin when she moved to let him through the door. "I thought you would still be in bed or at least still getting ready."
"Ha, ha, very funny," Kagome muttered, putting her hands on her hips. "I'll have you know that I have been ready for like half an hour."
"Oh have you?" Inuyasha said with a raised eyebrow. "How did you manage that?" Kagome glared at him,
"Mum set my clock forward," she mumbled and stalked off to the lounge room, leaving him behind. 'Why does everyone always think I'm going to be late?' she thought to herself. 'Duh, because you always are!' she answered herself. 'Shut up,' she growled and glared at the floor as she sat down on the couch.
Inuyasha chuckled softly, if not for him being a half demon – a hanyou, he wouldn't have heard the softly muttered confession. He followed her into the house and put his suitcase next to hers and then sat down beside her.
"So are you looking forward to the holiday?" Inuyasha asked noticing her frowning face, then kicked himself silently for asking something so stupid, of course she was. She had been going on about it for the last couple weeks.
Inuyasha's question brought her out of her thoughts and she smiled once again as thoughts of the trip filled her mind. "Yeah I can't wait to get to the sea and sand! And to get to the beach house!" Kagome said excitedly. "The different houses all looked gorgeous in the broacher and on the website; I wonder which one we got."
"Well we will find out when we get there I guess," Inuyasha said with a grin. "So have you and Sango already managed to fill up our social calendar's without us knowing?"
"Of course not," Kagome said with a pout. "We were waiting til we got there and that we would all do it together. Why? We haven't done something like that before."
Inuyasha gave her a disbelieving look. "How short is your memory? I clearly remember that at the last holiday we went on - the cruise, you both booked our social calendar full." With a soft chuckle he continued, "And you remember how successful that was, don't you?"
"Yeah you guys hardly did anything we planned… but we only planned everything like that because we were excited. Anyway that's why we want your input this time," she said with a frown then added sulkily, "Besides we said we were sorry."
"Yeah, yeah," he said with a grin. "You're always sorry," then he looked at his watch. It was now ten til eight, 'Where were Miroku and Sango? They are going to run us late.' He thought with a frown.
"Thanks a lot," she said punching him lightly on the arm. When a knock sounded from the door Kagome stood up and walked to open the door. Outside was Miroku, also in tight fitting dark jeans though he was wearing a dark purple t-shirt that said 'monk' on it in lighter purple letters.
"Hi there Kagome," Miroku said with a grin, his suitcase at his feet. "I thought you would still be getting ready."
"Argh!" Kagome exclaimed loudly. "What is it with you all? I am not always late! I have been ready for at least half an hour!"
"Oh did someone put your clock forward?" he asked his violet eyes shinning with mischief. Kagome glared at him dangerously. "Okay, okay, I'm sorry," he said putting his hands up in surrender. "So is everyone else here?"
Kagome shook her head, "Sango isn't here yet, though I'm kind of surprised she is usually the first one ready."
"Miss Punctuality is late?" Miroku said his jaw dropping. "What's the world coming to your ready on time and she isn't… maybe you stole her punctuality?" he teased.
"Shut up and get inside Miroku," Kagome said rolling her eyes at him. With a grin he obliged and after he placed his suitcase with the others he sat down on one of the chairs.
"Hey there Yasha," Miroku said with a grin. "Are you ready for over two weeks with beautiful girls?" Kagome glared at him, "Uh, what I meant was, our two beautiful girls."
"Sure you did," Inuyasha said with a smirk.
Again there was another knock on the door and Kagome opened it to a slightly frazzled Sango wearing dark jeans and a pale pink boob tube that said 'princess' on it. Though the shirt was slightly askew and her dark chocolate brown hair was messily done.
"What's wrong Sango?" she asked slightly worried about her friend. It was very unlike her.
"Kohaku and your brother thought it was funny to go through my stuff and hide some of it. I'm so sorry I'm late!" she said with a frown.
"It's okay you're only like five minutes or so late," Kagome said. "By the way your tops slightly crooked and uh, your hair is kinda messy." Sango fixed her top and they walked into the lounge room together.
"Hey guys!" Sango said with a grin as she sat on the floor and fixed her hair into a high ponytail. "Sorry I'm late."
"It's okay my beautiful Sango," Miroku said grinning. "So why were you late?"
"My brother and her brother hid some of my stuff," she said with a frown, "Little monsters. So are we ready to go?"
"Sure," Kagome said with a grin and they all stood up. "We're going now! Bye mum!"
"Okay dear," her mum said walking into the lounge room. "All of you have fun."
"We will," they said in unison and they all picked up their suitcases, Kagome gave her mum a hug and they walked outside to the car.
