I AM SO SO SORRY! I have no excuse for the long delay other than the fact my old computer won't let anything be copied off of it and I have to retype everything! . . . . . .(OK so I do have an excuse) but still I had no right (well maybe a little) to have waited what? 6-7 months to update this story? Hehe....ugh I might have to lay low and put all my effort in coming up with a good ending for you guys! I would like to thank all of my reviewers right now and even answer some questions and comments.
. . . . .OK I know what you're thinking, I'm sucking up, but I think it will actually work. . . I hate disappointing you guys and this will make up for it, especially this new chapter!! There is mostly humour in it and a lovey dovey scene which I tried my best on!!!!!
Replies To Reviewers
hipbunny- Yes I know. Last chapter was definitely sad but I think you'll like this chapter a lot better and it should make up for the last chapter. Thanks for the comment!
Bella. Carlisle. love- You know I was actually really thinking about moving Rin with Sesshomaru but it seemed too . . . .forward I guess. Although it would be interesting to have them in the same room together I think it would nice to see them try and be together from a distance. I think it draws people closer with distance from each other, when people are together every waking moment yeah it didn't really cut it for me. Having Rin and Tsu living together in the house all alone seemed to sad. I think they need to get out a lot more and Kagome or Sango could do good for her. But I definitely thought about it. Thanks for the comment and thought!
WereWolf299- Thank you so much! I wasn't sure at first about it but the way I had it set up was pretty good. Thanks for the comment!
I Am The Wind Mizuki Kay- Yea I know and it has been a while too since I updated. I didn't think it would be this long though. I am still bummed about how long it took me to update. Thanks for the comment!
Saholia- It was a very sad chapter. I hope that this one makes it better for you. Thanks for the comment!
HawkAngel XD- Really? I didn't think it was too good but if you and a lot of other people think so then it must be true! Hahaha Thanks for the comment!
On with the story ^_^ And as always I have no rights to Inuyasha.
Chapter 8
Mourning can be. . . . .
Fun?
-----------
Sesshomaru was still thinking about what happened when he dropped off Rin and Tsu. At first it was hard getting them out of the rain. It was heartbreaking but somehow sweet at the same time.
~~Flashback~~
Sesshomaru was in the comfort of his car for a good five seconds before he got out. The rain was beating hard against his skin but the two occupants in the rain seemed immune to it, lost in their grieving state. Sesshomaru felt slightly uncomfortable watching them in their time of, well mourning but they would catch pneumonia if they stayed out here any longer. So Sesshomaru crouched at eye level with Rin, slowly, as not to startle them.
Rin had forgotten about Sesshomaru and was surprised when she had glanced up, to see him right in front of her. Tears had been traveling down her face and when she looked at Sesshomaru her thought process burned one thought as clear as day, he was an angel in disguise.
She wanted more than anything to be held and protected. When Sesshomaru brought his arm around her, protecting her and Tsu from the rain with the jacket he had from his car, she felt something tug inside her.
With as much gentleness as Sesshomaru could gather he helped Rin from off the ground, so that she was standing upright. Tsu was still weeping strongly and didn't notice the sudden movements. Rin felt bad for her little brother and had no idea as of what she would do now.
She seemed to not have to worry though, because it sounded as if Sesshomaru had thought of everything for her. "I'll drop you off at your house for today. You can stay their for the night and have everything packed and hopefully Kagome or Sango can offer you a place to stay." Sesshomaru said all this as he headed towards the passenger side of the car. He had to speak over the rain so it was practically shouted but he was calm about it.
Speaking of the rain it was still beating down on him like bullets, which had got on his nerves a bit but he chose to ignore it in favor of opening the car door. Rin eased herself inside the seat already thinking how soaking wet she was, and how bad the seat was getting wet.
Tsu had stopped crying when he noticed that the rain had stopped pounding on him. He raised his still soaking wet face, mostly from tears rather than rain, and asked his sister in a pitiful voice, "Are M-mom and D-dad really d-d-dead?" Rin's eyes swelled with tears at the sound of Tsu's tiny voice. She didn't answer his question, but instead she tightened her grip on Tsu, pulling him closer to her and let him cry when he understood what her actions meant. Everything would be fine, Rin thought as she rocked Tsu in her arms gently. Although that thought was followed by a, Are you kidding? Everything won't be fine! She hadn't noticed the sound of the car door opening beside her when Sesshomaru got in.
The car purred silently when Sesshomaru started it up. He waited as the car warmed up and when Tsu had stopped shivering before he put the car in drive. Everyone stayed silent on the way to the house. Tsu had stopped crying once the car was in motion and the only thing to be heard were his snifflings.
The silence made Sesshomaru uncomfortable so he tried filling it in with conversation, "So Tsu I found a kitten last night in my closet. I thought maybe you would want it because. . .- he faltered a moment searching his mind for an excuse-. . . . well I'm not much of a cat fanatic, as you can well see." Sesshomaru smiled at the little boy without taking his eyes off the road.
What Sesshomaru said caught the boy's attention and he asked in a hopeful voice. "Wait! Is the kitten white with black paws?" Rin hoped it was, otherwise Tsu would be down even more than he already was. She looked to Sesshomaru with hope in her eyes.
"Actually that fits the description on the mark. Can you read minds or something kid?" Sesshomaru was surprised as he thought back to that crazy kitten. He hated it not only because it scratched him on his day back from school but because it always hissed at him every time he would enter his room. It would never leave his closet now that he thought about it and yet could always sense him when he walked in, he frowned at the realisation.
Rin grinned and looked down at Tsu, glad to have something else occupy their minds. Tsu was much happier now and he directed his attention to Sesshomaru with a smile on his face. "No I'm not a mind reader, but that would be so cool if I were. The kitten is mine though, he must have snuck in your house and went to the nearest closet he could find. For some reason he likes to hide in closets. He's usually friendly too but I guess he doesn't like you because you're a uh, dog, no offense." Rin felt her cheeks heat with embarrassment at what her brother just said. She missed the amused look on Sesshomaru's face as she was too busy pondering what to say after something like that.
Instead of hearing Sesshomaru sound mad he spoke in an amused tone. "Well you can come by tomorrow to pick him up. For some odd reason he doesn't want to leave my room." Rin glanced up at Sesshomaru from behind her long lashes as she pondered the idea of seeing him tomorrow.
The car stopped and Tsu had forgotten about the evenings happenings now that his kitten was found safe. Rin was about to get out but Sesshomaru had already opened his door and was heading to her side. It was still raining hard and he had his coat out ready to keep them from the rain as much as he could. Rin couldn't help but let a soft smile grace her features as she watched Sesshomaru in the rain.
Sesshomaru opened Rin's door and held the coat poised above them, already getting pelted by the rain, but ready whenever she was.
Rin tightened her hold on Tsu and carefully pulled herself up so that she was standing. Her hair and upper body were slightly dry but her legs and lower body were getting soaked. Tsu was snuggled against Rin's body and which was shelter enough for him to keep most of the water off of him.
The hard pattering of the rain was a distraction for Sesshomaru and the way Rin kept hesitating over her own feet was enough to worry him. Each time her feet would slide even the slightest he would tense up ready for a disaster to happen. Rin was able to gain her balance at the last second each time and they were at the front of her door before anything drastic could happen.
Rin searched her front pockets for her keys and when she came up empty handed, she searched again, more frantically, only to confirm that she didn't have her keys. She cursed to herself and felt like pounding the door to the ground, that is until she felt something touch her backside. Instead of feeling like pounding on the door, she felt like pounding on a certain guy who thought it was a good time to make a move! Her face was red and she opened her mouth to yell, for the first time in forever, when Sesshomaru said calmly, "Your keys were in your back pocket."
Rin felt too stupid to say anything and her face was red for a completely different reason now. Sesshomaru reached his arm around her and unlocked the door with ease. Rin was hurried in by Sesshommaru's insitant hand on her back. . . . .the same hand, she thought numbly. Rin let Tsu go when they got through the door and he walked up the stairs to his room slowly. He must be exauhsted, Rin thought sadly.
Rin turned around and saw that Sesshomaru was starting to leave. This time when that tug came she knew it was her heart pulling at her insistingly and she caught his sleeve before he could get away. A shock wave went through Sesshomaru and he looked over his shoulder at the small beauty behind him.
When Rin saw that Sesshomaru had started to completely turn around to face her and had his full attention she gave him a grateful smile. "Thank you, Sesshomaru." She still didn't let go of Sesshomaru's arm. As if Sesshomaru knew exactly where this was headed he leaned down slowly as his arms wrapped around Rin's small waist. Rin gasped softly but as Sesshomaru's face slowly got closer to hers Rin felt. . . . . . .something. Like an audible . . . . .Click.
She felt something click inside of her and and suddenly it was as if she couldn't wait any longer. She snaked her arms around Sesshomaru's neck and pulled him towardss her. His lips crushed against hers and his hold on her tightened so that she was now pressed against him.
Sesshomaru groaned in pleasure and wondered just how far he was willing to go. He pushed that thought aside quickly and instead nibbled on Rin's bottom lip for entrance. Rin gladly let him and was surprised at just how much she was enjoying it. I mean really she was should be mourning over her parents deaths, NOT making out with the most gorgeous man on the planet. Rin's thoughts rushed past her though when Sesshomaru deepened the kiss by sliding his hand up her neck, which sent shivers up her spine.
They in turn needed to breathe and that would have been the only thing that got them to pull away. The frist thing that went through Rin's mind when she got her thought process back was, WOW. Never before had she been kissed and she would have never thought it had been so addicting, already she wanted to feel his lips against hers again.
Sesshomaru had things to do so he gave Rin a soft goodbye kiss before touching her cheek gently and saying, "I'll see you tomorrow Rin." He gave her a smile and then left out the door in the pounding rain. Rin watched with soft eyes and thought again of how much of an angel he was.
~~Flashback End~~
Sesshomaru replayed the kiss in his his mind's eye again. The feel of her soft lips against his. . . . he wondered absently what she had thought about it. All this was enough to keep his mind occupied and distracted him from his brother's grumblings. Inuyasha was back in a foul mood and wasn't going to take the silence.
"Kagome is such a bitch!!!! She did all that to get on my fucking nerves!!! The way her mouth pokes out in a cute pout!! The way her hips move from side to side like she has a great way of showing herself! The way her eyes burn with fury when she feels for something so strongly. The way I love it when she gets me riled up. . . . ."
Sesshomaru was paused from his daydreaming to see that his brother took on a wistful expression. He couldn't help but notice how with each statement Inuyasha had shouted his voice became softer with each word. Sesshomaru also couldn't help but listen to him say more things he "hated" about Kagome.
"The way her voice is so angelic that when she says my name it sounds like a curse coming from her soft lips(A/N This "insult" had to be my favorite ^_^). How she pokes me with her gentle finger that could barely hurt a fly, but can send shivers up my spine. The way her raven hair looks so smooth and beautiful in the sunlight. How she can be so perfect and yet so naive at the same time. . . ."
Sesshomaru was quite surprised by Inuyasha's declaration of love to this Kagome girl. At least that was what it had sounded like to Sessshomaru. When he was sure Inuyasha was finished he said in an even (if not slightly amused) voice. "So is that what you're going to tell her? Because I have to say, when I have kids I am going to tell them of the time their uncle fell in love in less than a day and what his exact words were about said girl."
Inuyasha glared at his brother but he couldn't control the bush that crossed his features. He quickly turned before Sesshomaru could say anything about it and stalked to his room with as much dignity that he had left. Sesshomaru grinned and sat in the kitchen a few moments longer before deciding to retire to his room as well. Tomorrow would be another eventful day he was sure.
Hope this chappy was lengthy for you guys and I have to say I am sorry for the long wait for it. Rin and Sesshy are together though and it's almost over too. It makes me sad to think that it's so close to the end and again I'm sorry for the long wait.
