The change
"Sesshomaru-sama! Sesshomaru-sama! Look!"
An excited 8 year old exclaimed as she pulled her stoic guardian along with her. The brown-haired girl smiled toothily up at the pale-haired male, who looked calmly back at her.
"This one sees"
She giggled softly as she once more turned her head to look around. The fair was full of people and there were games and rides all around them, perfect for a young girl. For a stoic male recluse, not that much. The male sighed as he kept a close eye on his ward as she darted back and forth. This really was too much people for his taste...
His eyes softened as his gaze met his wards excited eyes.
...yet what wouldn't he do for her?
After a while he noted that she had stopped by one of this games, her wide chocolate eyes trained on a big bear with a red bow around its neck. By then Sesshomaru had observed that many children was carrying one or a few toys. So as she looked adoringly at the giant bear Sesshomaru walked to the manager of the stand.
"Three balls please"
The man nods and gave him the balls, which was the lowest amount of balls to be given. The aim was to bring down three piles of cans completely. Three balls wasn't nearly enough...usually. So when the pale male shot down all the cans with ease, the game manager was stunned and stuttered out the obvious question.
"W-what prize d-do you w-want?"
"The bear"
The shaken man nods and handed it over, much to a young girls delight.
"Sesshomaru-sama won!"
He nods and holds it out to the young girl.
"It's yours, Rin"
Her eyes sparkled even more, which to him seemed impossible.
"Really...? Thanks daddy!"
She cried out and latched herself onto his leg, hugging him tightly. His eyes widened as the words left her lips, before softening once more as she looked a bit worriedly up at him, noticing her error.
"O-oh i-i didn't mean..."
He shook his head and placed his hand on her cat eared hat.
"You may call me what you wish"
Her eyes widened before once again lighting up.
"...really..?"
He nods as she hugged him even closer. His eyes warmed slightly as he gently stroked her head.
"Shall we get some cotton candy?"
She nods against his stomach
"Yes...daddy".
Then they walked away hand in hand, no longer ward and guardian, but father and daughter.
