'demon sesshomaru'
Rin's inner power
Sesshomaru awoke alone the next morning, and said a silent thanks to the Kami for giving a few moments of peace to collect himself before he would have to come in contact with Rin again. 'So...are you going to tell her about the claim and that she really will get to live forever, or should I?'
"I'm still deciding on the best way to go about this." 'So long as you're no longer in denial.'
Rin was having breakfast and sketching something, "are those your plans for the backyard?" He asked sitting at the head of the table so that he could be next to her, and watch her work. He had to admit even if only to himself that he was impressed by her talent; Rin had drawn a perfect, though not to scale, color image of what she wanted the backyard to look like. There was even a separate stack of papers with drawings of all the different flowers that she wanted.
"A pool and a hot tub?" He asked one of his eyebrows rising, "is that a problem?" She asked looking up at him for the first time since she entered the room.
"I normally get all of my exercise by swimming, and I'm not a fan of public pools." She explained when he remained silent.
"Not a problem at all, the hot tub sounds relaxing...just make sure everything is in-ground, and spare no expense."
"I'll try, but I make no promises."
Izyoi was a bit disappointed when she realized that Rin really did have the entire yard under control, and that the landscaper had already come and gone before her arrival. "What do you plan to do now?" Kagome asked, "Shop for some wood and picture frames." Rin said. "Sesshomaru has already approved of the trip!"
"Oh, I haven't in quite awhile. Perhaps it will be a delightful experience." Her mother-in-law said automatically cheering up. "I just happen to have a list of things that I still need for the baby." Kagome said; she on the other hand knew that she was having twins, both of them girls, and though she had told Rin it was killing everyone else (especially Inuyasha) that she was keeping everything a secret. "We'll go baby shopping first then." Rin said, "then we'll go to the mall, where there will be something for all of us to do."
"Sounds good to me!"Izyoi agreed, "I know a darling little place we can stop at for lunch." Kagome smiled at her mother-in-law's last statement, "food sounds good! Perhaps I should pack a snack." She said absentmindedly rubbing her protruding belly.
"Lets stop at the kitchen first." Rin smiled.
"Mr. Tashio?"
Sesshomaru looked up from his computer annoyed with the interruption. "Yes?" He asked. His secretary Yura was standing in front of his desk dressed in her usual slutty too small office wear, and as per the usual she was failing to get a rise out of him. "I'm here to ask...WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" She said obviously angry with him for some reason. "Excuse me?"
"I'm incredibly attractive, why have you yet to fuck me?"
"For starters I don't waste time with obviously desperate whores, which is what you are."
"Wha-..." she tried to say. "Second, as you very well know I now have a wife."
"So do a lot of men, and they still have lovers!" She argued. "Third, I don't find you even the slightest bit attractive." He went on as though she wasn't speaking. "But-..." Yura tried to complain, but Sesshomaru cut her off again, "lastly...you're fired."
"What?"
"You didn't really think that you'd be able to speak to me in such a manner without any repercussions?" He asked, his emotionless monotone sounding mocking. "To be honest I was going to fire you anyway later." He added before she could speaking again. "W-why?" She stammered. "For being an annoying whore since the day I hired you." He said his attention going back to his computer, a clear sign that he was done wasting his valuable time talking to her. "You'll regret this Sesshomaru."
"You'll regret not leaving my office within the next two seconds." Yura quickly left with as much dignity as she could muster, knowing that everyone outside the room had to have heard their conversation.
"I wounder what Rin is doing." 'Probably waiting for you to drop your purse and fuck her fucking brains out!'
Sesshomaru sighed and prepared to spend the rest of the day tuning out his demon's rantings and impromptu sex talk.
"So you both agreed that if the baby is a girl that you get to name it?" Rin asked as she looked at bead selections. "You're rich you know, why not just buy them all?" Kagome asked. "Kami, you sound just like Sesshomaru. I can't bring myself to spend so much money."
"If you don't then we'll just buy them all for you." Izyoi threatened smiling evilly. Rin quickly shoved a bunch of packs of beads into the basket she was holding. "What's the big deal anyway?" She demanded, her cheeks puffing up in a pout. Kagome and Izyoi had stars in their eyes from her adorable expression. "When you have money and a husband of high status you should spend it and appear in public often, or the press will make up stories as to why you're a shut in and why you're shopping as though you're lower class." Kagome explained, "I learned that the hard way after marrying Inuyasha.
