Clean Up My Act

Disclaimer: Many stories later and I still don't own InuYasha or the original characters, although if I decide to make up some they are mine and mine alone :shows fang: Also I lay no claim on ANY of the picture that are in my album in the link provide in my bio…

Summary: Sesshomaru is dragged by his half brother, to one of those cafes where the waitresses dress up as maids, just because a girl named Kagome worked there and his brother wanted to ask her out but when Sesshomaru is served by a girl named Rin, everything changes but now that his brother has confronted Kagome he won't get the chance to see Rin again. 2 years later Sesshomaru saves a young woman's life only to find out it's Rin and she needs a place to stay. Can Rin help the man who has everything but a heart or was it doomed from the start?

A/N: Okay last chapter wasn't that great but meh, this one is better I hope and I realise this story is going slow but my last story Lost but not Forgotten went to fast so I want to try slow paced fic, also things will speed up slightly soon I hope. This story is going to be updated quite slowly because I am still figuring things out and my attention is more focused on Lost but not Forgotten…sorry

Pictures: This section will be in ever chapter and in my bio there is a link to where all my pictures are kept, it has scenes and/or the clothing I have used in the story to give you a better picture :grins: I will tell you what the picture is called then what its relevance to this story is, okay?

Chapter 2:

It had been two months since Sesshomaru's first visit and he came every other day with his brother and Miroku, each meeting was the same, Miroku or InuYasha would request for the three girls to join them and they'd go into the same pairs as usual. Kagome was on InuYasha's lap and they were talking quietly, laughing at each others stories and flirting while Miroku and Sango were either arguing or talking, mainly arguing though. Sesshomaru and Rin had become friends, well close enough to friends and they usually just chatted about odd things, although currently Sesshomaru was helping Rin with her math homework as she was in her last semester of school.
"Ahh…I see, so that means x is 8…right?"
"Exactly, you understand now?"
"Yea thanks, Sessy, you're a way better teacher, I actually have a chance of passing now!"
Rin gave Sesshomaru a quick peck on the cheek before packing up her school stuff and turning to face a now blushing Sesshomaru.
"Okay as a thanks I'll let you order anything and I'll pay, okay?"
"Hmm I have enough money but how about a dance instead?"
Rin's smile widened before she nodded and stood up. She chose "Voglia Dance All Night", by Eiffel 65 which she thought an upbeat and fun dance. After they finished they decided to have one more this time she chose "Rock this party", by Bob Sinclar another upbeat song. Rin and Sesshomaru finally stopped and caught their breath, Rin was laughing and Sesshomaru was smiling slightly.
-insert phone noise here-
Sesshomaru stood up straight and excused himself before heading outside to answer his phone. Rin continued to smile and collapsed into her seat, exhausted. Sesshomaru walked in, back to his emotionless self.
"InuYasha and Miroku we have to head back, there's an emergency at the company"
"See ya Kags."
"Bye Inu!"
"Bye my sweet Sango"
"Shut up and go"
"Bye Sesshomaru thanks for the help and the dances!"
Sesshomaru gave a slight nod in Rin's direction before leaving with the guys in tow.

Kagome swung her bag onto her back and left the café with her friends as they finished their shift and headed home together.
"So Kags, anything happen between you and lover boy?"
Kagome looked over to Sango and blushed although she was grinning madly.
"He asked me out and I said yes!"
"Oh my god, are you serious?!"
"Yea, we're going to the movies on Saturday, he gave me his number, what about you guys?"
"Well Miroku was being a pervert as usual, he kept trying to ask me something but he never got round to forming a sentence"
"You were probably giving off your evil, demon slayer vibes again"
Kagome and Rin laughed while Sango blushed and started attacking Kagome.
"What about you Rin, how'd the new customer treat you?"
"He seems a bit emotionless and he takes his job to seriously, but he was nice, not a pervert or anything"

"You like him?"
"Oh no, not like that, he's just a breath of fresh air after our usuals, didn't even make to grope me"
"That's good, oh apparently InuYasha only comes there to see me and now that I'm his girlfriend he isn't going to come any more"
"That's good to hear, I would have hunted him down if he still came after he started dating you"

"Does that mean Sesshomaru and Miroku won't come any more?"
"Hmm, don't know"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Sesshomaru turned in his chair to face the two men on the couch in his office.
"So now that the crisis is under control you two are free to do what ever till tomorrow"
"Why thank you your highness"
Sesshomaru rolled his eyes before turning his attention to his computer.
"InuYasha, how'd it go with Kagome, you ask her?"
"Yup, she said yes, how bout you Miroku?"
"Um didn't quite get the chance, so you not going to visit there any more InuYasha?"
"Nope, you?"
"Nah, I'll ask Sango out another time"
Sesshomaru paused and stared at the two men in shock, if they no longer visited the café then he wouldn't be able to visit Rin any longer, although she was just merely a friend he found it relaxing to talk to her after a hard day of work.

"Oi, bro you gonna go back there?"
"I see no reason to waste my spare time there"
"What about that girl, Rin. You guys seem pretty close"
"I only talk to her because there is nothing better to do but now that you will no longer drag me along I do not see reason to ever step foot in that place or speak to that woman. Now leave, unlike you I actually have work which needs doing"
Miroku and InuYasha glanced at each other before standing and leaving Sesshomaru's office to go home. Once they had left Sesshomaru leaned back in his chair and stared out his window and thought about his current situation, either he could continue going to the café to speak to this woman or he could never go there again and forget she even existed. He decided on the latter, his life was fine before he became friends with her and he'd get more work done if he stayed away from the café. He let out a sigh before continuing to type up the report.

Rin sighed as she continued to sweep up the mess which had been created by the fight between the last group and Sango. They had tried to come on to her so she used force to make them leave her alone. It had been 3 weeks since, Miroku, InuYasha or Sesshomaru had visited and personally she missed their company. She blushed, well she missed the company of the tall sexy demon known as Sesshomaru. She admitted to her friends last week that she thought she may have a small, tiny little crush on the guy but what single female didn't? She turned when the bell by the door rang signaling a new customer. It was only Miroku, Sango would tend to him.
'If he's visiting again does that mean Sesshomaru might come again?'
Rin turned and began sweeping in the direction of Sango and Miroku to eavesdrop.
"My dear Sango, would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend and going out with me?"
"Of course, but keep your perverted hands to yourself!"
Rin smiled to herself, Kagome and herself had known for awhile now that Sango had a thing for Miroku and had become more testy when he didn't show for the past three weeks. Rin approached the couple with a smile on her face.
"Hey Miroku, where's Sesshy?"
Miroku looked at her in shock and so did Sango.
"Is there something on my face?"
"No, but does he allow you to call him that?"
"Sesshy? Yup, is that strange?"
"Only when you're talking about the most heartless and nonsocial man in all of Japan"
"Oh...well he didn't seem to mind…I hope I didn't insult him"
"If he had been upset by it he would of told you, anyway he no longer wishes to come here as he was dragged here by InuYasha and I previously and we no longer need t come as we have the girls we came for"
"Oh, okay…tell him I said hi then. Bye Miroku"
"Will do, see ya"
Rin put the broom away before entering the staff washroom where she finally allowed the smile to fall from her face along with tears.
'He only came here because he was forced…he didn't want to see me. I'm a nobody to him, I thought we were at least friends or close enough how could I mean NOTHING to the guy?!'

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Sesshomaru looked up from the papers he has been looking through to find Miroku at his door with an idiotic grin on his face.
"May I help you?"
"Just to let you know that lovely lady Sango agreed to date me and Rin says hi…she misses you Sessy"
Sesshomaru glared at the man before him.
"Who gave you permission to call me by such a ridiculous name?!"
"You allow Rin to call you that"
"She is a high school student and therefore is bound to call acquaintances by odd nicknames, I thought little of it as I would not be in her presence long"
"Oh Sessy, you sugar daddy! Anyway just came by to let you know that you should go visit her"
"I do not have the time to visit a petty human high schooler"
Miroku flashed an all knowing smile before leaving his bosses office.
