Spring 191
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin cried as she giggled and ran over to him, looking up at him with a wide uncontrolled smile. "Where are we going my lord?"
The demon lord remained silent as he ignored her, only looking at the path.
The child by his side turned her head to the side slightly then looked up to the trees. They were walking by a cherry orchard and the petals were filling the air. She laughed, running in and out of the trees.
"Rin."
She froze instantly as his cool voice. "Yes my lord?"
He looked at her from the path then stepped over, reaching out to her.
For a second his hand hung out of her sight before pulling away. In his hand was a small pink petal from the trees that had caught in her hair.
He held it before her in two fingers for a moment then let it go in the breeze.
Rin watched it as it fell before turning to follow Sesshomaru as he left. She laughed and kept running around him and the trees.
In the spring of the year, she enjoyed her childhood with Sesshomaru.
