Teacher Who?

(Chapter 10…yay)

She was a wreck.

Rin was about to freak.

Sesshomaru had come home…LATE!

AND he wasn't talking. Ever since he had come home he had this stone expression and no words.

Ever since she had found them messages on his phone she had tried to bring it up but they had just settled into the ACUAL Takahashi mansion with a fresh start and new lives not too long ago and she didn't want to have to leave. So she hadn't said anything. Scared to say anything.

But where had he been today?

"Sesshomaru?" Rin said quietly, walking into the kitchen where he was leaned over the counter.

"Not now Rin." He answered aggressively. His hands clenched up into a fist and he leaned up quick without looking at her and faced toward the sink. But she didn't move.

"Sesshomaru…" she started, but he cut her off.

"RIN IM BUSY! …Leave." He answered coldly.

Tears formed in her eyes and she sniffed. He tensed.

She ran out of there as fast as she could. He usually followed after her and apologized, but he had never said anything to her like that before…and it scared her. Maybe he wouldn't come to comfort her now. And after a whole hour…she was sure of it. So she quickly and quietly started down the stairs. Than she heard the phone ring…

"Hello?" Rin said picking up the phone, she heard sniffing on the other end.

"Rin? This is Sesshomaru's mother. Is he there?" she was quiet in the way she talked.

"Yeah hold on a second." She laid the phone down and ran around looking for him, but he was no where to be found. She looked outside in the front and realized his truck was there. Than where was he?

Then she noticed his motorcycle missing.

She picked the phone back up.

"I don't know where he went. He just left on his bike." Rin said, trying to hide her worry.

But it didn't fool his mother. So she decided to tell Rin the truth.

"Rin…Sesshomaru's father…h-he passed away earlier t-today." She began crying.

Rin felt her whole body go numb. His father died? Why didn't he tell her? He knew her parents had also previously passed, and she knew what it felt like. Her heart ached for him. No wonder he had been so quiet.

"Oh my god." She said quietly, surprised she could still talk.

"He (sniff) had a massive heart attack last night and it was too late."

"I'm so sorry."

"Thank you. And Sesshomaru will be ok… give him a while and he will return."

"Ok…and I am so sorry."

"Please don't worry to much over it. There i-is nothing either of us could have done." She began to cry again.

They hung up and Rin listened to the silence and tried to concentrate on what to do next.

She decided to go look for him.

She rounded the streets in a panic looking franticly and barely paying attention to the road. She had to return home. Maybe he was there. She turned around and began her way back. She picked up her phone again and tried his cell one more time…no answer. Damn it. Tears came to her eyes.

She pulled over and cryed.

About Sesshomaru…

Because of Sesshomaru…

For Sesshomaru…

And finally she got the strength to make it home.

The bike was there.

She was crying before she reached the door.

She saw him as soon as she burst through the door.

He sat on the couch with his head in his hands. He looked like a wreck.

"Sesshomaru…" she whispered.

She ran up and through her arms around him and felt his muscles tighten. But when she pulled he got to his feet. She returned to hugging him.

"I'm so sorry."

"Rin…thank you."

"I love you Sesshomaru."

He held onto her tightly in the middle of the silence. And he let out a deep breath.

And she felt something wet soak her shirt.

"It's okay. Sesshomaru I'm here."

"I know."

"Damn it not now." Rin said quietly.

"What?!" he said, pulling away and looking down at her. She never cursed.

"Sesshomaru I'm really, really sorry." Her eyes begged him for forgiveness.

"What for?"

"For going into labor in the middle of this." she bent down a little and grasp her back with knuckles that were beginning to turn white.

His eyes widened. Oh shit…

Author note- I didn't want to make it too sad. I was listening to one of my dads old songs and I remember when he died. So im making this chapter in loving memory of him. Love you dad.
