Rich Roulette
Chapter 2
First day of the rest of our life.
"Senior year, baby, here we come. Woohoooooo!" Kikyou swung her slender legs out of her dazzling red Porsche and gave a little squeal. Checking her reflection one last time she got out of her new toy, and faced her school. This was her territory now, she owned the joint and nothing was going to get in her way. Looking around she spotted her best friend walking towards her. 'This is it she thought, the first day of the rest of my life.'
"Baaaaabe! It's finally here. I've been waiting for this moment for 12 very long years," squealed Rin giving her friend a warm hug and a light kiss on the cheek. "Finally we get to rule this place! Oh look here's your knight in shining armour, looking grumpier then ever. I think I'm just gonna' go get my timetable." And as an afterthought added, "Good Luck!" Squeezing Kikyou's hand and sticking her tongue out made her way to the school gym.
Kikyou shook her head and suddenly gasped as two strong arms circled her waist. Realising who it was she relaxed and turned around to face her boyfriend. "Inuyasha! Way to scare me you big…"
Before she could finish her lips were captured in a long hungry kiss. Feeling the pleasure Kikyou closed her eyes and wound her arms around Inuyasha's neck pulling him in to a deeper embrace.
"Ugh! You two get a room!" Came a loud shout from the opposite end of the car park.
Smiling a little in the kiss, Kikyou pulled back and placed her head in the crook of his neck. Breathing in deeply she took in his manly scent. "Mmm you smell good."
Inuyasha smirked. "Can't say the same about you though."
Kikyou blinked and pushed him away. Putting her hands on her hips she gave him a little pout. "Ouch, that hurt."
Inuyasha just shrugged as if to say he was only stating the truth just to annoy her. "I missed you."
"Oh yeah, how was your trip? Push your brother into the Pacific Ocean as planned?" Kikyou joked.
"Oh I wish. But it was the usual, you know a week in France, another at a penthouse in New York. Gambled a few hundred…uhm…thousand at Vegas." Inuyasha wiggled his eyebrows. "Father owns the casino anyway."
Kikyou laughed.
"Ahh young love," smirked Syaoran walking up to the couple. "Isn't it just so sickening." Kikyou wrinkled her forehead and groaned in disgust. Syaoran leaned in closer to Kikyou and whispered, "I missed you." And then he turned around speaking a little louder, "And you know I love it when you groan, in bed."
Kikyou gasped as Inuyasha pushed her aside and lunged at the flamboyant Syaoran. But Syaoran was too quick, he stood quite still and caught Inuyasha's fist mere centimetres before it reached his face. "Now now, no need to get so angry. I was joking you big fool. She's all yours, since you prefer others leftovers. Dog." Syaoran laughed at his own joke. With a quick wink at Kikyou he started walking away never looking away from her. He made a gesture with hands, with his pinky pointing towards his mouth and his thumb towards his ear imitating a phone, Syaoran mouthed 'call me' and with that smirking with satisfaction he made his dramatic exit.
Kikyou let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and carefully turned to look at Inuyasha's face. "I'm…"
"Don't. Just don't. I know what you're going to say." Letting out a sigh he continued. "I just need time to cool down; he knows exactly how to wind me up." Running a hand through his long black hair Inuyasha looked straight at his girlfriend. Noticing the pained look he stepped forward and gave her a tight hug. With a quick kiss on her cheek he said, "I'll see you at lunch. You're okay right?"
Kikyou nodded and watched him walk away. "…Yeah, I'm okay." With that she got into her car and drove out of school property.
…
"Hoe…KAGOME! You just ran a red light. Good gods please save my life. I don't want to die so young. Have mercy!" Sakura scrunched her eyes shut tight and held onto her seat as if her life depended on it.
Kagome shook her head and burst out laughing. Her eyes lit up as she heard her favourite song being played on the radio. Taking her eyes off the rode long enough to run another red light and earn herself another whimper from Sakura, Kagome turned the volume up.
"Hey. Hey. You. You. I don't like your girlfriend. No way, no way. I think you need a new one." Kagome sang along at the top of her lungs. She was so caught up in the song that she failed to see a red Porsche speeding towards her. The owner of the expensive car made a sharp turn right in front of the Higurashi-Kinomoto vehicle.
"KAGOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Kagome snapped back to reality just in the nick of time and slammed on her breaks. As soon as they came to a stop Kagome jumped up and down in her seat honking her horn at the other driver. "YOU IDIOT! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING. TRYING TO GET US KILLED! COME BACK HERE!!" She started running after the Porsche waving her fist at the driver but all she got in reply was a slender well manicured middle finger.
Sakura sweat dropped. Slowly approaching her fuming sister she managed to drag her back to the car. "I think I'll drive the rest of the way." She said as sweetly as she could. The rest of the ride was deadly quiet.
Couple of minutes later.
"We're here. Gosh, it's huge." Sakura exclaimed excitedly. She turned to her sister and quickly said, "Look no need to tell anyone what happened. It's okay, it wasn't your fault. No broken bones, bruises or the jeep harmed. Stop worrying!"
That seemed to do the trick. The guilty Kagome gave Sakura a huge bear hug.
"One condition though," said Sakura pulling out of the embrace. "I drive everyday from now on. I want to make it through senior year in one piece. Agreed?"
Kagome poked her tongue out. "Since I feel so guilty I'll agree, for now. By the way your outfit looks hot. Whoever picked it out for you?" Kagome whistled.
Sakura laughed and slapped her arm. Hopping out of the jeep she noticed how odd it looked compared to the sleek metallic machines parked around it. She shrugged, she couldn't care less. It was a present from their parents and something she'd never be ashamed of. She walked over to Kagome and hitched her arm through her sisters.
"Are you ready?"
Kagome looked straight ahead at the perfectly trimmed lawn with its well watered gardens and expensive statues that stood menacingly. Then looked beyond that towards the towering old grey building that held the reputation of Japan's best. She smiled.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
And with that the two sisters, hand in hand, walked into the world that would change there lives forever.
To be continued.
AN: So okay, I have like a lot more typed up but I felt this was the best place to actually end the chapter. Sort of tied it all up. Yes a chapter a day keeps me entertained. I'm on holidays at the moment and am SO sick! So I've nothing else to do then sleep eat sleep watch tv and of course now, write! Hope this chapter perks more interest. Heee
Until next time (which might be tomorrow).
