InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Meeting Place ❯ the sandwich on the ceiling ( Chapter 9 )

Back again! I want to dedicate this chapter to my friend Kitty, since she FINALLY got around to REVIEWING for me! ^_^ thank you Katie!! ^_~

Kagome's heart sped up when they called the lunch break. One and a half songs had been recorded thus far, due to a problem with the recording and some files that got deleted. Sango and Miroku cryptically disapeared the first moment they could, abandoning their two best friends. By that time, Sess had already fallen alseep again and Rin was busy absently scratching the back of his head (as one would scratch a large puppy), still working on her homework.

"So…" Inuyasha turned to her. "Do you want to go out, or make something around here?"

"Um…up to you," Kagome blurted, looking down at her shoes. Inuyasha shrugged.

"I don't really care. I think Miroku took my car, we'll have to see what's around here."

"Why did Miroku take your car?"

"Because he can," Inu shrugged. "C'mon, kitchen's upstairs."

Rooting through the cupboards, they discovered that there wasn't much meal-wise-though apparently Miroku had stashed a year's worth of hair dye on the soup shelf.

"I knew that tasted funny," Inuyasha muttered, moving the entire collection onto the counter. Kagome giggled in spite of herself, helping him move the dozens of little jars.

Finally having discovered that there was no independent meal, they were faced with one choice: taking all of the odds and ends in the kitchen and making one very large and disturbing sandwich.

"Rules!" Kagome exclaimed after Inuyasha proposed this. "We can make it a game of sorts. We'll only use two pieces of bread and stack everything up without having it fall over."

"I break rules, not follow them," Inuyasha reminded her, taking a large jar of mayo out of the fridge.

"As long as you don't get anything on me, then…" she blinked at the grin that spread across his face.

Reaching over, Inuyasha grabbed a large spoon out of the coffe cup of silverware on the counter. Somewhere in her mind, she realized what it was that he was going to do. This idea took hold of her consious thought when he put the spoon in the jar of mayo.

"No. Don't do it. I swear I'll scream. Don't you dare throw that at me-AAUUUGGGGHHHH!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sess yawned, sitting up. What had sounded like a human scream had roused him from his comfortable sleep. Also, Rin had jumped up when she heard it.

"No, Inuyasha's not that stupid," she said to herself.

With a sigh, Sess heaved himself off the couch and trudged towards the stairs. Not a moment later, his brother's manical laugher made its way into the basement.

"It's not right to lie like that Rin," he commented, glancing at her.

She sighed and shook her head. "Kagome's more mature than that,"

"We can only hope their preschool teachers told them about forgiveness, then."

The couple stared at one another for a moment or two. Almost simoltaneoustly, they turned and ran up the stairs.

"In the slim chance that we get there before she kills him, you take…no, there's no chance she hasn't killed him yet," Rin corrected herself, skidding into the kitchen behind her boyfriend.

What had once been the kitchen appeared now to be the empty battlefield of a great submariene sandwich war. Mayo and mustard coated the ceiling and the floor, making the entire room one large ice rink of sorts. Pickles lay forgotten in the disgusting yellow mess, as did several uncut tomatoes and about a head of lettiuce.

Sess survayed the scene with his usual calm detatchement. It would be Inuyasha that suffered for this, not him. Their parents we due back in about an hour anyway, it wouldn't be nearly enough time for the younger twin to clean up his battlefield.

The two occupants of the room could have blended in with their yellow mess, coated in all of the ingredients named above. Inuyasha's silver hair was absolutely dripping with mustard. Bet that'll stain. At least I'll have something to laugh at tomorrow in school.

"Hey, dead brother," Sess called to get his attention. "The mop is in the hallway. I believe that you have about forty-five minutes before mom and dad get home."

"…crap!" Inuyasha exclaimed, his eyes wide. "I'm dead!"

"Yes, we have already established this. I suggest that you start cleaning. I will take Kagome home so that she can clean herself up before mother gets here."

Grabbing the stuttering girl's upper arm and dragging her out of the kitchen, he let Rin take her and drag her towards his car. Walking over to the hall closet, he selected a particularlly tall mop and tossed it to his brother in the kitchen.

"Compensation," he said in explaination. Inuyasha crudely flicked him off and began to drag all of the crap on the floor into a pile.

Walking back outside and blinking in the sudden light, Sess got into his car and nodded to Kagome. By the time they got to Kagome's house, he knew that Inuyasha had probably gotten the floor marginally cleaned.

"I'll help Kagome. We have to get back quick," Rin offered, jumping out of the car as soon as it stopped.

~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~

"What happened?" Rin demanded, staring into Kagome's closet. "I thought that you were getting yourselves lunch?"

"We were," Kagome said, talking loudly over the noise of the shower. "And then he decided to be an ass,"

Rin shrugged, pulling out several items of clothing and matching them up, trying to decide what would look best on her friend.

"Sounds like him," Rin replied thoughtfully. "You're going to meet his mother this afternoon right?"

"I suppose, if that's why I'm getting all cleaned up."

"I have to warn you," Rin said cryptically.

"About…?"

"She's a bit of a nutcase. One of those hopeless romantics, okay? I've known her for years, and she's adorable once she trusts you. But you'll have to be paitent with the…questions,"

"What kind?"

"They're embarrasing. I'm sixteen now, right? Well, when Sess and I first started going out, I was only twelve. His mom gave us the birds and the bees before our first date, it totally freaked me out. For like another year after that, she would ask all these random questions."

"Scary," Kagome commented, reaching one arm out of the bathroom. Rin handed her the clothes and sat back down on her bed.

"Rin, do you smoke weed? Do you know what it's like? -I mean, my God, the woman's crazy with the questions!"

Kagome giggled, not able to picture her young friend having anything to do with drugs. Rin giggled as well, shaking her head.

Ten minutes later she was dressed and blowdrying the last of the dampness out of her hair. Rin grabbed her arm and they ran outside, pratically jumping into Sesshoumaru's car. He was sleeping, face pressed to the glass of the driver's window. Shooting Kagome a grin, Rin turned on the car and rolled down the window. Sessy's face slid down until it was on the door, which was when Rin reached over and tickled him.

Sitting up with a start, he blinked once or twice before relaxing when he saw it was Rin. With a small smile, he leaned over to kiss her.

"We have to get back," Kagome said meekly, before they could indulge in a make-out fest. "Really," she said more urgently. Rin seemed to jerk out of the lovey-dovey state she had fallen into.

She nodded. "Yeah, Sess. Let's go."

Not such an eventful chap. Because of this, I'm posting two at once. It took me forever to end this, because it sort of got boring in the middle and I had to keep going…yeah.

Anyway, I've realized that I posted chapter eight on mediaminer but not fanfiction! I'm very sorry-really!
