I would like to thank all my new readers and those who have added this story to your favs and alerts. Now read chapter 4 enjoy review if you got anything to say bad or good ;) BTW I do not own Inuyasha or anything from the manga or Anime. I just own the characters and plot lines that I come up with.
Rin sat in her room tears falling from her eyes, but there were no sobs or any indication to anyone outside of the room that she was crying. The tears were not of pure sadness but relief. Hiten had just come to speak to her, he explained that he found his first love again and she wanted a second chance. All throughout his explanation of the events that led up to his reunion with his other half had Rin crying silent bitter tears. She was not angry at Hiten, for she knew that true love was an emotion so pure and raw that it should never be ignored. The tears she cried were because now she felt that there was truly no one out there that could mend her heat. She sat looking at the mirror she knew she was not ugly, she knew she was not stupid, in fact many men had complimented her on her fine qualities, and often said how she would make a wonderful wife. Yet, how could she make a great wife if no one loved her. She sighed and the tears began to flood down her face. A soft knock was filled the silent room, Rin quickly began to wipe her teary eyes rubbing them trying to get rid of the redness, or dull them enough to blame the color on allergies. Rin stood and went to the door opening it slightly. Their stood her Otou-san, he looked at her and shook his head as he walked in and sat down in the chair at her vanity mirror. Rin walked and sat on her bed.
"Hiten explained to me what happened Rin, are you okay?" he asked gently. Seeing her eyes were red, and the trails of her silent tears, along her cheeks.
"Hai Otou-san, I will be fine. I am happy for him honestly. I am glad he found someone who can return his love wholeheartedly." She said as she turned to look out the window of her bed room.
"My musume, I know you are happy for you friend, but what will you do now that your heart is breaking?" he asked seriousness in his voice?
"Otou-san I was hoping that I could return to Kyoto with you for a while so that I may clear my head." She said the tears beginning to spill out of her eyes.
Her father stood and walked over to her, sharing in a rare display of affection by hugging his daughter. He knew what it was like to lose everything, including the one you loved most. He also knew what it was to run away from heart break only to further destroy your life and the lives of the loved ones you still had. He would not let his daughter make the same mistakes he did, he knew he would have to find a way to help her overcome her tragic lose.
The doorbell rang, echoing throughout the house Eiji, let go of his daughter and silently exited the room to get the door. Rin lay down on her bed cuddling up with her pillows and let the tears fall freely.
Eiji walked to the door grunting that he had to do chores such as entertaining any guests that dropped by while his brother and sister-in-law were out till the meeting at ten, the servants were out as well as well as Kagome. When he got to the door he opened it ready to yell at whoever it was for interrupting the rare bonding time that he had with his Rin-chan. Their stood Sesshomaru Takahashi dressed in jeans and a tattered shirt looking very disheveled.
"Ah Sesshomaru what brings you here this afternoon?" Eiji asked "I mean no one is here but me so I am sorry to disappoint you if you were looking for someone rather important." He finished lightly leaving out the fact that Rin was upstairs probably crying herself to sleep.
Sesshomaru looked at him with an expression that actually sent Eiji in a panic. The young boys eyes were filled with uncertainty and remorse, and dare he say it love and want. "Eiji-san I wish to speak with you if you have a moment." He said his voice showing his mixed emotions.
"Hai, Sesshomaru come in sit down in the kitchen, and we will talk." Eiji said leading the way through the house and to the kitchen table. "Would you like some sake you look like you need some?"
Sesshomaru shook his head no. Not knowing where to begin or if he trusted himself to speak Sesshomaru took a deep breath before he decided he had to say something. In one swift movement Sesshomaru was bowing to Eiji. This caught him extremely off guard, he stood up. "My boy what is going on?" Eiji demanded
"I need to apologize; I hurt Rin and for that I am sorry and I wish that you would forgive me for causing even one tear to be shed by her beautiful face." Sesshomaru said this in quite a rush.
Eiji did not understand but was amused that the might Sesshomaru had fallen so far as to ask him his girlfriend's fathers enemy for forgiveness for hurting his daughter. "If this is all Sesshomaru you know I would forgive you are still no more than a pup when it comes to expressing yourself." Eiji said sitting back down.
Sesshomaru made no move to get up "I wish to ask you something Eiji-san, it is of vital importance that you give me an answer immediately." He said trying to slow down as he spoke.
"Well depending on what it is my boy I may be able to give an answer, and then again I might not. But, go ahead and ask me." Eiji said this with a curious expression on his face. What could Sesshomaru possible need to ask him that he could not ask his father? Was something so terrible wrong his own father could be of no help?
"I wish to have Rin, would you give her to me?" Sesshomaru still bowing asked slowly in a low tone.
Eiji thought he had heard Sesshomaru asking for his daughter. But, that could not be right, he was sure he heard the young boy wrong. "Sesshomaru I am not certain I comprehended what you said could you please get up from that stupid bow and speak to me like a man."
Sesshomaru sat up and looked Eiji straight in the eyes. "I wish you to give Rin to me." He said. To his surprise Eiji began to laugh a full hearted laugh.
"What is this Sesshomaru a joke, you have someone already, are you trying to poke fun at an old man?" Eiji got out between laughter, but he saw their was not laughter in Sesshomaru's eyes only pure seriousness.
"Eiji-san this is no joke, I have been an idiot until now, but I have seen the errors of my ways and I wish to claim what is rightfully mine." He finished taking a seat at the table still shaky from his display of weakness, but in his heart he knew he had to do this, for the chance of being with his precious Rin.
"Oh, it is about time, she has been waiting for you for such a long time Sesshomaru. She is upstairs in her room. Hiten spoke with her today and she has been crying ever since. I am glad that you have finally made the right decision by choosing Rin, but it is not my place to give her to anyone. I will approve of you being with her, but she has to be the one to give you her heart." Eiji said. Sesshomaru looked at him seeming a bit crestfallen. "Don't sit their acting stupid, go to her." Eiji exclaimed, Sesshomaru jumping out of his seat and rushing to Rin's Room.
Eiji grabbed the bottle of sake from the table and began to walk to the front door, he walked outside locking the door behind him. When he got to his car he pulled out his cell phone dialing a number.
"Inu-No-Taisho, you will never guess who greeted me with their presence today." Eiji said pulling out of the drive way and speeding down the street.
"Who was it my friend." Inu-no-Taisho spoke.
"Your son and what a curious visit it was." Eiji continued.
"Which son may I presume grace you with their presence and were they well behaved, you know Takahashi men are held at the highest standards of respecting their elders." Inu-no Taisho joked
"Well it was Sesshomaru." Eiji said flatly.
"Well what did my oldest son want Eiji?" he asked curious as to what his son could have possible spoken to his friend about.
"He wants my daughter." Eiji said the other end echoed with laughter.
"I am serious." Eiji said trying not to laugh at the memory of the eldest Takahashi son's behavior.
"Well I hope you're on your way over."
"Yes and I have a bottle of sake." Eiji said as he looked at the bottle.
"Well I guess we will change the meeting place to my house then, seeing as those two will be very busy." Inu-no-Taisho said another round of laughter echoing through the phone.
"Spare me Taisho I do not want to think about what your barbarian of a son is doing with my precious angel" with that Eiji hung up the phone and sped off to the Takahashi residence.
The ride to the mall was very comfortable for Kagome and Inuyasha, every so often they would stop at a stop sign or a red light and he would steal a kiss from the raven haired beauty that sat next to him. He could tell she enjoyed their intimate moments. By the time they got to the mall everyone else was inside waiting for them at the first shop. Kagome was about to open the car door when he stopped her. Inuyasha turned her head to face his and he placed a passionate kiss on her lips. She responded in kind as he nipped at her lower lip, his hand moving to her hips and guiding her to his lap. They sat chest to chest he reached down and pushed the seat back so she was not pressed up against the steering wheel uncomfortably. As they kissed she began to grind down on his heated erection, causing pleasurable growls to erupt with in his chest. He pulled back he saw her flushed, her eyes glazed over with lust, her lips swollen from their heated make out.
"Kagome" he groaned as she grinded harder on him. "Yes Inuyasha." She said her voice full of passion. "We have to stop Kagome." He said not convincing her or himself. "I told you that earlier but now look at us." She said grinding on him again. "KA..Go..ME" he managed to moan out. "Yes what is it Inuyasha" she said kissing his neck. "Baby if you don't stop I am gonna take you right here, right now." He growled this got Kagome's attention. She kissed his lips softly, and moved back to the passenger seat, pressing her head against the glass window.
"What is happening to us?" She said hitting her head lightly over and over again on the window. Inuyasha looked at her his breath ragged trying to calm himself down. "What should have happened a long time ago" he said taking her hand in his. Kagome hit her head harder against the glass. "Stop that Kagome and look at me" he said pleading. She looked in his direction and gave him a soft smile.
"Inuyasha this will never happen again, you understand. Today is the first and last time we will ever be like this. You have Kikyo, you love her and she loves you, and I am not some slut that's going to ruin your perfect relationship. For the rest of today if no one's around we can pretend, all we want, you can kiss me, touch me and yes if you want me I will give myself to you." She looked at him and kissed his cheek. "For today let me pretend that you love me as much as I love you, but tomorrow we go back to being enemies and this" she stopped and kissed him roughly while her hand massaged his arousal through his pants. "Will be a fleeting memory, one moment in time something only you and I can look back on." With that she opened the car door and got out.
Inuyasha hit the steering wheel with his fists. Did she not understand he did not want her for just today, no he wanted her forever, not some fleeting memory, but something tangible, something that was his for eternity. This whole situation was Kei-san's fault, if he had never told Inuyasha about what really happened between him and Kikyo's mother and why she needed protection, Inuyasha would have been with Kagome. He hit the steering wheel again bending it but not caring at all as he got out of the car and raced inside the building to find his, yes that's right his Kagome.
Kagome found her friends inside a urban clothing store, everything that was hanging in the storm was either extremely short or extremely tight fitting, Kagome smiled to herself she would have fun trying things on for Inuyasha and watching him try to hide his reaction from their friends. Sango waved Kagome over, Kagome walked over and as soon as she stood in front of her friend she was bombarded with questions.
"So Kagome what took you and Inuyasha so long to get her I mean seriously were you guys fighting again." Sango asked Ayame just shaking her head.
"No we got stuck at every freaken stop light along the way, it pissed me off, me and Inuyasha didn't even talk." Kagome said as she walked past her friends pulling out a red corset top from one of the racks and tight black skinny jeans to accompany it.
Sango, who had a handful of clothes, and went to the fitting room, While Ayame just stood there, next to Kagome with a smirk on her face, making Kagome extremely uncomfortable.
"What Ayame?" Kagome practically shouted. Ayame's smirk just got bigger as she placed her hand on Kagome's shoulder.
"You may be able to fool Sango, but you forget Kagome I am a wolf demon, my senses are better than a humans. You and Inuyasha weren't talking cause you were preoccupied with something else ne." Ayame said giggling hysterically.
"Damn you and your heightened senses" Kagome cursed "Damn Koga is gonna find out." Kagome said scared now.
"Look I will distract Koga, I only hope you both know what you are doing I don't want either of you hurt." With that Ayame walked over to the lingerie picking out lots of bright colors causing Kagome to laugh.
"So are you buying that cause if you are we need to leave now so I can get you in it then out of it." the husky voice of Inuyasha filled her ears like a pleasant melody.
"I don't know yasha I want to try it on first." She said walking towards the dressing rooms, swaying her hips more than usual causing an audible groan from Inuyasha. Inuyasha went to find the guys not sure of how he was going to control himself when Kagome came out of the dressing room. He saw Miroku and Koga sitting in the two of the three chairs in front of the fitting room and he sighed the only chair left was between the wolf and his best friend. He made his way to the chair sitting down not acknowledging either of them.
Miroku smirked, "So Inuyasha was it really the red lights that kept us waiting twenty minutes for you both?" The perv was already irritating him, what went on between him and Kagome was no ones business but theirs.
"Can it Miroku before I knock you ass out." Inuyasha stated simply.
"I guess I was right," Koga said taking five thousand yen from Miroku(roughly 60 dollars)
"What the hell?" Inuyasha growled.
"Look I may not like you at all at this point in time, but I know what I smell" Koga said tapping his nose " When we got you your place I could smell you two all over each other."
Inuyasha just smirked proudly, "So are you gonna kill me?" Inuyasha asked curious of Koga's reaction to this situation.
"Why would I do that, this has been a long time coming, just don't hurt her." Koga said lowly.
"So are u guys ready or what?" Ayame called from behind the curtain, she was affirmed they were ready by the hoots and hollers of the boys.
Ayame was the first to come out in a super mini skirt that was three inches short of full exposure, and a sheer black top with a sparkling neon green bra underneath, accompanying her outfit was a pair of black stiletto heels. Ayame pranced over to her boyfriend who was practically drooling. She did a turn in front of him "What do you think Ko-Ko-kun?" she asked as she straddled his waist. He couldn't get the words formulated in his mind, she took his breath away, the outfit was not something he would let her go outside in but he could definitely get used to her prancing around the house in it. "I take it my big bad wolf, like it." She said kissing him lightly on his nose. He nodded dumbly, "Good I will by it she said scurrying off to the fitting room."
Inuyasha and Miroku chuckled at Koga's stupidity when it came to being around Ayame. "Shut up you both won't be laughing when it happens to you." Koga said shifting uncomfortably in his seat trying to hide the agonizing swell that formed in his pants.
Sango came out next in small purple booty short and a matching purple tube top that exposed her tummy and her belly button ring; she wore knee high heeled black boots, and had body glitter all over her form. Miroku didn't even wait before he jumped out of his seat and heatedly attacked his girlfriend. "How about you buy ten of those outfits and that's all you wear from now on" Miroku said as Sango blushed Inuyasha and Koga both giving her a thumbs up. Miroku leaned into her ear "And maybe we can get some of that edible body glitter so I can lick it off while I undress you tonight." Sango's face turned beat red as she struggled out of Miroku's hold and back into the dressing room.
The certain opened and Inuyasha's breath was taken away by the sight before him, Kagome stood before him in a tight red corset that had two loose sleeves that fell right before her elbows exposing the tops of her milky white breasts, she was wearing tight black skinny jeans that showed off her round butt, and a pair of red stiletto heels. "So guys what do you think?" Kagome asked peeking under her eyelashes every so often to look at Inuyasha. Inuyasha stood up and walked over to her encircling his arms around her waist. "Beautiful" He said softly, her face flushing a darker shade of red. Inuyasha tilted her head up to face him and he began to place butterfly kisses on her forehead, then to her cheeks, moving to her nose, he place more passionate kisses on her mouth and neck.
Koga and Miroku both wolf whistled, startling Kagome she looked over at them. "What the..." She was cut off by a chuckle from Inuyasha. "Koga's nose sniffed us out." Kagome sighed and walked back into the dressing room.
The rest of the afternoon was spent shopping and talking Inuyasha never let Kagome go unless she wanted to try an outfit on, it mad Kagome happy and sad at the same time, even though the day would end and they would go back to their spate lives.
Rin was laying down in her bed the tears still streaming down her face, she did not hear the door open nor did she sense the person who laid down next to her. An arm wrapped around her waist, at first she thought Hiten had come back to comfort her but when the voice reached her ears she immediately tried to get out of his grasp. It was not Hiten, it was Sesshomaru. "Please Rin stop" Sesshomaru said trying to keep her against him, but she managed to get out of his grip. She rushed to the opposite side of the room.
"What are you doing here?" she asked crying now.
He stood up and walked over to her he got down on both knees and took her hands into his. "Rin please listen to me." He said looking up. Rin was stunned her was the toughest and unemotional demon she had ever met kneeling before.
"Say what you have to then leave." Rin said holding back the tears she wished she could just let out.
"I am sorry Rin, I have been an idiot, for the longest time." He paused caressing her hands. " I am a monster Rin, I kill, in cold blood, I don't deserve you, not your friendship not you love not anything you can offer, and that's why for so long I have stayed away but…" he tried to compose himself but Rin feel to her knees pulling him in to a hug.
"Don't say that please don't, Sesshomaru you deserve it my friendship, my love and more. You are not a cold blooded killer, I have seen you repent for what you have done, so please don't say such idiotic things." She buried her face into his shirt.
"Then Rin forgive me, and become mine." He stated his voice full of emotion.
Rin was stunned "But what about…" She was cut off my Sesshomaru's lips on hers. He gently maneuvered her onto the floor. "It's over because I have faced reality, and you Rin are my future." He kissed her deeply. She could not even tell him how she felt she knew the only thing he wouldn't listen to anything now, so she would just have to show him
