"Neh, Sesshomaru," Rin looks at the demon beside her under the tree. His eyes are close as he leans on the wide trunk of the tree. "Will he ever notice me?"

He slowly opens his eyes to reveal its molten gold colour. He looks at the girl sitting beside him wearing their school uniform, her brown eyes mirrors hope and sadness. He watches as the wind blow her dark brown hair. He sits up straight and stares at her giving her silent questions and urges her to continue.

"I know I'm stupid but," she lower her gaze to the grassy ground where they are sitting. "Out in the millions of chances I will never get his attention."

"Then why are you still hoping?" he ask. "If it's useless then stop wasting your time."

"Maybe your right," she stares at her hand that is folded on her lap. "I'm just a stupid girl."

He can feel the melancholy in her voice. He lifted his fingers up to her forehead fling it but not too hard.

"Ouch," Rin rub her forehead. "What's that for?"

"Come on," he started to stand up. "Classes are about to start."

She stares at the man that is now towering her, his silver hair dance in the wind, as he stood his simple uniform looks so good on him while he look down at her. It may not appear a good way of him cheering her up but she will not have it another way. She smiles as she looks at the deeps of his eyes and stands.

"Neh, Sesshomaru," she dusted her school uniform. "Can we go and buy an ice cream?"

"Later," he answers and started to walk. "We will buy on our way home."

"Really Sesshomaru?" she gleams in delight, all her sadness vanish that very instant. "I really love you Sesshomaru!"

Rin cling on his right arm as they continue to walk back but he doesn't seem to bother. She is smiling so wide that she is humming a happy tune.

'Those words, 'I love you Sesshomaru,' she keeps saying those to me. Always, 'Sesshomaru,' she always smiles at me, always. Those words 'I love you,' always saying that to me but it is not the way I want it to be. They just a blank words, blank words that always gives me hope. Is it stupid if I will just cling to it?'

…..

Sesshomaru was waiting for Rin in her classroom until she finishes their club meeting. He looks at her bag seating on her table and saw it was open. He notice a paper peering inside, he pick it up and look at it. Kohako, one of Rin's classmates came in.

"Sesshomaru-senpai," he greets Sesshomaru. "Are you waiting for Rin?"

He just looks at him, he knows for long time that Kohako has feelings for Rin but she seems so dense to notice it.

"This is," he started; Kohako looks at him as Sesshomaru slowly show him the paper he was holding. "This is Rin's Guy Ranking List that her friends force her to make."

"That girls really," Kohako laughed nervously. "Girls are always like that."

"In this list," Sesshomaru ignores his statements. "You are rank in the last."

"Ehh,"Kohaku look shock but a bit happy, he gave a timid smile before he answer. "I see but I still don't stand a chance in her."

Sesshomaru just keep quiet. He keeps staring at the list on his hand, seems like searching.

"Unlike you Sesshomaru-senpai," Kahaku looks away as Sesshomaru look at him. "You are so close to her, if I'm close to her like you, I believe I can stand a chance."

Sesshomaru just keep quiet not hearing the quick goodbye of Kohako and exits the room. His words keep playing in his mind.

'Those words 'I love you,' she keeps saying it, always saying it, but the meaning is not the way I want, long and need it to be. The one who don't stand a chance is me.'

At that realization, the paper slides from his hand slowly falling like his heart, slowly breaking and shattering like the paper as it reach the floor. He always knows that he doesn't have chance or even stand a chance to her from the beginning. She likes a different man, a man that she looks up and adores.

"How stupid," he murmured as he looks up and stares at the ceiling. "The one who don't stand a chance is me.
