Naraku's mind games
On his honor
Sesshomaru opened his eyes to feel like himself again, with jaken lying unconscious a few feet away and Rin in his lap with his lips pressed on her forehead. He was startled and started to look away. Damn it he thought, why is today my unlucky day? I have had way too many adventures today. Right now all he wanted to do was to rest then go after Inuyasha to figure out how today's activities occurred.
So it was a bit of a shock to see that he was giving such an open display of affection to her. Rin, sensing that something had changed, backed away while still in his lap and asked
"Sesshomaru –sama is alright? Sesshomaru –sama had started laughing, screaming, crying, calling out for Sesshomaru –Sama's brother to come save him and hug him."
"I did what?" Asked sesshomaru, dumbstruck, calling for Inuyasha to...what!!...oh why does that happens today turn to Inuyasha??, not even bothering to disguise his voice. He didn't care that he had shown Rin affection, it was kind of nice to let her know he didn't mind her ,in fact rather liked her.
Oh no! What am I thinking?
Im turning soft! ' No, you're turning less heartless. Why do you make yourself so cold sesshomaru?' Asked his conscious. You know you love her, as a daughter and the only family you have, except for that dim-wit gay brother of yours.
No Inuyasha isn't like that...he thought...that I was his wench...normally if I came across them doing such a thing,. I would have enjoyed myself immensely, slowly torturing my brother until he died of embarrassment...but the first hand...he felt like puking again.
No no nonoonononono.dont go throwing up again! Right now, Rin is scared, I have to comfort her...he could smell the stale fear emanating out of her body.
He felt embarrassed, she was afraid for...him...such a strange thought...
Rin continued her whispers in his ears while his eyes widened at places. "Rin jumped on Sesshomaru –Sama's back and held on to Sesshomaru –Sama's hair and the Sesshomaru –Sama calmed down and sat with me and plaited my hair silently."
Sesshomaru was horrified at first when she showed off her plaited hair because of his ruined reputation in front of Rin, but in the end decided that when kagome took over his life for a few hours had probably done more than he could have done in a lifetime.
He could see that Rin was a lot closer to him than him; she brushed his hair (to his delight), slept on his fluff and was even civil to jaken(even while unconscious). She adorned him with flowers when he was asleep(even though he knew exactly what she was doing, he let her for the smiles) ,insisted on polishing his amour until it gleamed, and rode on sesshomaru instead of ah-uh when she was tired(all this in one day!).Now, as much as I would hate it, I have to admit two things
1. He liked Rin more then ever-before
2. Tying back your hair really does make you feel less hot
(Rin made him figure that one out.)
The entire incident pointed in the direction of the bone-eaters well and Inuyasha and his friends. He would have to visit them tomorrow. On his honor, he would figure out what happened.
