Chapter 11 pre: wake up, please
One day turned into many…
A few months passes by without a stir…
Then finally, her hazel eyes opened...
Five months felt like an eternity. Sesshomaru knew this all too well.
Night after night, dawn after dawn, he had become committed to her bed side.
His golden eyes had become too familiar with her pale skin, her cold cheeks, her covered orbs.
He stood, and walked slowly to the curtains.
Staring at them for some time, he suddenly grasped them, and ripped them from their hold.
Silk fell softly to his bare feet, and a drop dripped the floor.
It was not the blinding sunlight that had entered the room, ridding it of it's sulky dreariness.
But the pain and heartache he felt in his heart. A heart he did not know still beated until now.
This Lord was never much for words.
Even so he imagined all the things he wanted to say to Rin, and have her hear them.
It was slowly killing him, and everyone knew it.
He was doubting.
Doubting that he would ever have a chance to look into her beautiful soft eyes, and tell her she was apart of him.
Connected in a way not even death could break.
If only…
He turned from the destroyed heap of the curtains, and looked at the bed.
Her thin fingers twitched, but she didn't' stir from her long, deathlike sleep.
Sesshomaru sat of the corner of the bed, and leaned down towards her.
He embraced her head, and buried his nose into her dark hair.
Her heart beat weakly against him.
As the smell of cherry blossoms entered his system, he felt his body relax.
The pain melted away, but he knew it was only temporarily.
"Sessho"
He ignored it, willing himself not to let the moment of serenity end so quickly.
"Koi"
Her sweet soft voice filled his ear, and he could only believe his mind to be playing a trick on him.
His heart accelerated, and he nuzzled her icy neck, hoping to feel the warmth he use to.
"Koi, I can't breath!" He jumped back, and scoffed.
Annoyed eyes stared up at him, and she sniffed.
"Go get an attitude then, I don't care Koi".
His body was frozen, and he only stared as she began to sit up.
Was it a dream?
Yes
No
It's real
Are you sure?
Rin?
"Sesshomaru, why are u staring at me like that?"
Raising her hands over her head, she stretched and frowned with displeasure.
"Feels like I've been asleep or years".
Her frowned only deepened when she looked back at her mate's glistening eyes.
She had never seem Sesshomaru cry, and it was not a sight that didn't surprise her.
"Sesshomaru, what's wrong?"
