Sesshomaru was not one to laze in the classroom, but after all the straight perfect scores in his math exams, it does get a little bit boring. Shoving his hands in his pockets, he slowly slouched on his seat, staring at his classmate's back. A few minutes of observing his classmates, he focused his vision towards his textbook, answering advance exercises that were typically too hard for a student to answer.

While he was too engrossed on solving the complex problem, he was not one to not notice his environment. His eyes quickly caught sight of the words magically appearing on his desk.

'What the hell?' Sesshomaru thought, sitting upright as he watched the words form.

HELLO

He blinked. Twice. Thrice. Okay. A word just popped out of his desk. Seriously, was someone playing a prank on him? He surveyed the room but everyone was either talking to themselves or answering the exercises.

He looked back to his desk and decided to play along. He doubt it would answer back anyway. It was impossible.

WHO ARE YOU?

There. He placed his hand over his mouth, pondering over the writing. A tiny part of him wanted an answer, but majority knew that there won't be one.

A few seconds later, words started to appear again. His eyes widened, not sure what in the world was happening. A communication? From where?

RIN IEIRI. YOU?

His curiosity sparked and before he could stop himself, he wrote his name.

SESSHOMARU. WHERE ARE YOU FROM?

As soon as he wrote the words, new words appeared. His exercises completely forgotten, he focused on his new interest, eagerly waiting for the reply.

TOKYO. JINSEI HIGH. YOU?

He blinked at the words, the very same high school! Sesshomaru was usually good at memorizing names, he racked his brain for a Rin Ieiri but couldn't remember one being this high school.

SAME AS YOU. BUT I DON'T KNOW ANYONE WITH THE NAME RIN IEIRI HERE.

He asked how their school and classroom looked like. And the resemblance based on the description were spot on. Sesshomaru began to get more curious with this new invisible person. When Rin didn't answer back, he thought of another new question. Something that would confirm his suspicions.

WHAT DATE IS IT THERE?

Slowly, words appeared once again and Sesshomaru smirked to himself. Did he actually discover something?

MARCH 1, 2017. HOW ABOUT YOURS?

Somehow his desk was connected to the future or was there some time glitch that was happening that God wasn't aware of? Or was this just pure chance?

YOU'RE FROM THE FUTURE? IT IS ONLY JULY 24, 2010 HERE.

Her next reply kind of annoyed him. Yes right. Words magically appearing on your desk isn't some kind of future shit.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU. PROVE IT OR YOU'RE LYING.

The bell rang and it was time for lunch break. Most students buzzed out of the room but Sesshomaru was still fixated on his desk. He looked around his classroom figuring out something. As his eyes landed on the locker behind him, he knew where to prove his point.

He walked over to the locker and placed his hand on top of it. There were scratches and markings by the previous students who used the room, these kind of lockers usually get changed every ten years or so. Perhaps it would reach to 2017. Without further delay, he kneeled down to locker number 28, pulled out his key and carved his proof.

He walked back to his desk, and quickly wrote down his reply.

I WROTE SOMETHING ON LOCKER 28. CHECK IT OUT.

A few minutes have passed and there wasn't a reply yet, he was getting a but frustrated as he wanted to know how she would react to it. He played with he pen a bit more before seeing the words appear again.

I SAW WHAT YOU WROTE! YOU'RE REAL! HOW DO I MEET YOU?

Honestly he didn't know how. Usually, the classroom on this floor was for senior students, so he assumed that Rin would be a senior on that time.

A DATE.

He wrote.

WHEN? WHERE?

HERE IN THIS CLASSROOM. MARCH 1, 2022. WE'LL MEET HERE.

BUT THAT'S TOO LONG!

He admits that it was too long for him too but, with his family problems and pending transfer of school, he wasn't sure if he could uphold the promise. Meeting her as an adult would be the right choice.

JUST TRUST ME OKAY?

No reply came after that. Not even when he tried to initiate a conversation the following day, or the following week. He concluded that it was pure chance that they had somehow communicated. He sighed, looking out of the window.

Today he stood in front of a class, exactly March 1, 2017. This part in the future he knew very well what had occurred. Not that he planned to be in the exact location, it was pure coincidence that he was transferred to his alma mater and on top of that, his class list contained the name that he wanted to meet for so long.

"Everybody sit down. Get your math textbooks and turn it to page 10." Sesshomaru opened his and read the text, explaining the process along the way. As he wrote on the board, a noise came from behind him. He turned around to observe Rin, her eyes glued to the desk.

He smirked inwardly, knowing exactly what happened.

"Ieiri-san. Is there a problem?"

"Nothing sensei!"

Sesshomaru returned his attention to the board and continued on his lecture, all the while relieving what happened on the day of July 24, 2010.

As much as he knew that his past self was getting all her attention, he got a little bit irritated as she didn't even bother to pretend listening to him and just glued her attention to the desk.

'You're getting a little bit out of hand with your expressions there Rin.'

He sighed. He'll let her off the hook, that's probably how his teacher's felt when he ignored them.

He noticed how dejected she look the following day. Her facial expression changes every 5 minutes or so, a ruckus was already happening and it was because of her. Fed up with the noise, Sesshomaru called the attention of the students.

"Ieiri-san and company. Is there a problem?"

"No-nothing sensei! I'm sorry!"

"Get back to your work. Another noise would not be tolerated."

"H-hai sensei."

Before he turned away, he noticed Rin looking sadly at her desk.

Glad he wasn't the only one that was sad then.

"You big meanie Sesshomaru!" Rin gasped. They were inside a cafe spending time together. It had been 2 years ever since they've met and just the other night Sesshomaru had proposed to Rin.

"Why is that?" Sesshomaru sipped his coffee calmly and began to continue typing the student's final examination.

"Well other than you just told me your point of view for the very first time I might add, why haven't you even tried introducing yourself?" She looked at him exasperatingly.

"You were already there!" She raised her hands comically.

"Hmmm. I think it would have been plain weird to have your teacher approach you about that. I figured it'd be better to meet you as an adult. You won't be destroying your future by blindly following me right after graduation."

"Well I guess you're kinda right..." Rin looked around the empty cafe and smiled to herself.

"I'm really happy that it happened to us. That I was able to talk to you."

"As do I, it gave me inspiration to push on forward." Rin nodded knowing his family problem back then. Sesshomaru pulled Rin beside him and continued typing on one hand.

"After I finish the exam, let's grab ice cream on the way back home okay?"

"Okay!"
