I was actually going to discontinue this story but then I received a message from a fan asking me to update... so here it is!

I awoke with a start. My body was trembling uncontrollably as I threw off the covers. Trying to remember what had happened was like asking a baby to suit up and fly to the moon. I thought I had died and was in heaven with my family. Maybe I did die and came back. Or more possibly it was a dream. Thinking about it now I don't know how I should feel about that. Finally I decided not to think about it and tried to put it in the back of my mind.

Sighing heavily was for some reason, painful. My neck throbbed and it hurt to move or tilt my head. Then all the events of last night came rushing back to me full force. I was pissed!

'Who the hell does he think he is! Thinking he could try and take advantage of me, like that no less!'

I quickly got out of bed but that was a bad idea. My head kept spinning and I quickly lost my balance. I fell back on my bed and curled up in a ball. I felt like shit. I took caution of my ankle (which no longer hurt like hell now), and got back under the covers and tried miserably to fall back to sleep.

Though as predicted, that no good, trust destroying, woman using, son-of-a-bitch kept haunting me and sabotaging my slumber.

'Why didn't he kill me?' I kept asking myself.

I knew nothing of demon customs, but maybe it was like some sort of dominance thing. Maybe he wanted to kill me in front of everyone to prove how bad ass he is and the bite was just a little taste of the real pain that was to soon come. Feeling anxiety and fear like I never had before, I whipped out my cell from my clothes from last night and held down on two. I was put right to voice mail.

"Sango, its Rin. Please come get me as soon as you get this. Im not okay. Im not coming in to school if you don't come get me. I was attacked last night. Please hurry!" I was crying like a baby as I screamed every word practically. For the millionth time in my life, it felt like my world was falling apart. I suppose this time I sort of knew what was coming but the betrayal hurt even worse. I had trusted him so quickly, unlike all the others that were really nice and sociable toward me.

I tried not thinking about what was most likely to come soon and lay back down. It was 5:30 A.M.. My alarm is what had woken me up. Home by Three Days Grace was still playing and so I shut it off even though I really like the song. I think I had finally nodded off by accident because when I awoke someone was banging at my door.

I didn't answer. Instead I tiptoed up to the small peephole and saw Sango still banging.

"Open up its-" she didn't even have time to finish her demand. I had already flung the door open and had jumped into her arms and started bawling once more.

"Rin Honey look at me!" she shouted pulling at my arms in a pathetic attempt to remove me from her.

She sighed and gave up. We awkwardly went back into my apartment. It was awkward because she had to walk with me still holding onto her like a monkey on his momma doing a front piggy back ride. We sat there for a while on my love seat, the only piece of furniture in the living room besides for the small old fashioned antenna t.v..

"Please Rin," she begged trying to move the hair out of my face.

"Tell me what happened."

I slowly picked up my head from her shoulder and told her everything. To Sesshomaru picking me up for coffee, going to his house for dinner, then him bringing me home and us making out on my bed and finally he attacking me like that had been his true intention the entire time.

"Oh Rin, he didn't mean to attack you!" she laughed uncontrollably while trying not to seem rude, which was safe to say that it didn't work.

"What the hell are you talking about? You weren't their. He attacked me Sango. There's no way Im going back to school with him there!"

"Rin he didn't attack you! Just calm down and let me explain," she sighed sounding tired so I decided to give her a break.

"Alright start explaining then," I huffed in annoyance.

"No, go get dressed and lets go. I'll tell you on the way to school."

"I want to know now!" I demanded, but she would have none of that and pointed to my bedroom.

"I assure you, your in no danger now get your ass dressed!"

Sango can be pretty intimidating so I argued no further, grabbed a fresh uniform and ran to the bathroom for a quick shower. It calmed my nerves instantly but a fresh wave of anxiety washed over me as soon as I got out.

My legs were shaky and I felt as if I were going to be sick again. I finally got dressed and fell only twice from my ankles' constant throbbing. My boots were even more of a pain to put on, but at least I could do those siting down. Doing a little make-up, I hobbled out the door with her supporting the left side of me so I wouldn't fall again.

Climbing into her truck was a huge pain in the ass, but it didn't hurt nearly as bad as getting into Sesshomaru's car.

"So how bad is the bite?" asked the amused bitch of a friend.

"Still all red. Now start talking!" I demanded while searching threw her glove compartment in search of something to cover up my wound with.

"Well long story short, he marked you as his mate," she shrugged as if it were like telling a child that the sky was blue.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" I shrieked now just furious. There was no way in hell I was marrying a demon.

"You know, some would jump at the chance of getting in the sack with Sesshomaru. Here you are now marked by him with hundreds of nights and more with him in bed. You should count yourself lucky."

"But Sango, his eyes were all red, the marks on his face were jagged. Im telling you he looked famished and what he wanted to eat was me!" I cried still fearful of going to school and facing him in music.

"Don't worry about it. Im sure you think demons and monsters are the same, but really they are civilized." She said this a few other times before as well to try and convince me to have her friend Ayame over, but it never works.

"Please Sango. Im sorry that Im so judgmental towards demons but please tell me theres a way to have this removed!" I pleaded.

"Of course there is we learned all about it in Global Economics. Weren't you paying attention?"

"No. Please educate me."

Going threw the green traffic light she sighed heavily. The day was beautiful, the exact opposite of my mood. I knew Sango wanted to skip today and hang out with Ayame and Kagome down at the outlet mall, but even if I told her to go and have fun, she still would have stayed.

"If the mark is unintentional, then the marked and the marker have to go in front of demon court and plead there case in order to have the mark annulled. The catch though, is that half demons are becoming more rare now days. A lot of judges, if the cases do not seem to have a valid enough reason, they won't pass the annulment."

"Which pretty much means Im screwed," I sighed miserably almost submitting to defeat.

"No, not necessarily. Lawyers are able to be involved and Sesshomaru's Dad is the best lawyer in Japan so I'm sure it'll be no problem."

We pulled into the parking lot and Sango grabbed my crutches as I tried climbing out. Now with fear and a hurt ankle I was even more ditzy than usual. I walked into school and surprisingly I didn't have a heart attack. Nothing happened. There were no kids around to cause me to fall.

"Where the hell is everyone?" I whispered to myself but Sango heard and answered.

"The mark must be pretty strong. Usually demons stay a certain distance away from another demon's marked out of respect, but this is ridiculous. Either this is out of immense respect or fear," she answered in aw.

"Well either one works for me." At least I wouldn't be flocked by a million other demons and be called a whore or a slut every time I turn around because others wanted Sesshomaru and so they think that I got to him first when they've probably been trying all four years of his high school career.

"Lets get something to eat before we head to class. We'll be marked absent for most of them any ways, whats wrong with being absent for Calculus?"

We were walking up to get in the massive line when all the demons that were in line suddenly left. Yah that's fear for ya!

"Wow, I guess being his mate does have its advantages in general," I shrugged as we got our food and sat at the table closest to the door to outside. Despite the fact that I didn't sit anywhere near any other demons, they all got up from their seats and bunched over to the other side of the cafeteria.

Sango seemed to be getting a kick out of this. She was laughing her ass off and I wanted to throttle her. I wanted to be left alone by demons, but this was just ridiculous. I didn't want them to think that they had to be afraid of me!

I saw Ayame in line, and took a deep breath. Sango did say that she was really nice. I picked up my crutches and hobbled over to her, which Im sure left Sango and everyone else in shock, but I could never be sure because I never looked back to see. Ayame turned around before I got one word out.

"Hey Rin! You look like your doing better," she winked discreetly, while giving me this huge knowing grin.

"Yah, much better," I mumbled letting a slight blush tint my cheeks. "Would you like to eat with Sango and I?" I asked while holding my breath.

"Yah sure!" she giggled, excitedly seeming surprised. She probably thought that I despised her. She quickly got her food and joined us at the table. I smiled my brightest despite the fact that I was receiving intense glares from the others.

"So what's it like?" she asked as if she were mesmerized.

"What's what like?" I asked shrugging.

"You know, being someone's mate!" she squealed, no longer try to contain her excitement.

"I don't feel any different. Im in a little pain, but besides that everything feels normal."

"Just wait till you see Sesshomaru then. I've known him for a couple of years. Rin he's been moping all day!" she exclaimed.

"What do you mean?" I asked. For some reason my chest was in pain and I couldn't stop thinking about Sesshomaru off on his lonesome in a corner, mopping.

"Don't tell him I told you this cuz he would totally end my life, but we tell each other everything. We're like brother and sister. The close kind. He was depressed that you weren't here this morning. Hw said that if it weren't for having a test in almost all his classes today, that he was going to go and get you."

"You see Rin, as soon as he marked you the pull started!" hissed Sango.

"Alright, what the hell does that mean!" I asked frustrated that they knew what was going on with me when I had no clue. It reminded me of when I was ten and started my period for the first time. I thought I was dying and my Aunt laughed at me like I was retarded, but soon she realized that I was crying and explained everything...in full detail.

"Well its hard to explain," started the red haired, pig-tailed teen demon.

"Have you ever seen Breaking Dawn?" asked Sango.

"Of course. Who hasn't?"

"Well you know when Jacob imprints on Renesmee? How he doesn't wanna leave her side for anything? Thats sort of how demons feel after they mark someone. They become obsessed with each other."

"Weird, Im not obsessed with Sesshomaru," I pointed out.

"You also haven't seen him since he marked you either so you wont feel anything yet," Ayame explained.

"This is so messed up. I don't even know Sesshomaru that well at all. He just bit me. He didn't ask, he just did it!" I was getting riled up again. I already had a diagnosed phobia of demons in general, now I was supposed to be obsessed with one? What the fuck have I gotten myself into?

"He probably thought that you wanted to be marked since-"

"Rin..." came the cold, velvet voice of the devil himself.

My heart sank and I couldn't help but let out a loud gulp as I hesitantly turned around to face my death. The look on his face was unreadable, but it shocked me no less. I expected him to look pissed or at least upset. His face was a blank impassive stare. It's a good thing I was sitting down though, because my legs were trembling and I would have collapsed other wise. My focus was completely on Sesshomaru but I could feel the fear and tension rolling off Sango and Ayame.

He finally turned around and with his back to me he said, "Let's go."

If he was a reck before I was here and he was relieved now, he sure as hell didn't seem like it. Its not like I needed the help getting up, but I figured he would have at least offered like he did yesterday. Biding my friends a short good bye, I rushed to catch up to him.

Sesshomaru

'Why the hell wasn't she here on time?'

I couldn't help but feel over protective, but I was so disappointed that she would just out right avoid seeing me!

Today I had the candy red convertible with the top down, it being a nice day and all. I waited almost impatiently in the drivers seat while she struggled to get settled in and throw her crutches in the back.

As soon as we were all set I slammed on the gas and booked it out of the parking lot. I was so angry that I had to keep one hand on the steering wheel and the other in the seat with my nails digging into my hand until I smelled the blood dripping onto the seat.

I took the back mountain roads so that traffic lights wouldn't intervene with my accelerating speed. The scent of salt suddenly overpowered the smell of my blood. I turned to the pathetic, mortal child that had been driving me to insanity with worry all day, to see that she was crying while gripping onto the seat and seat belt for dear life.

I was scaring her. That much was obvious. I felt a twinge in my chest that made me feel terrible for scaring her further, but I sped up more anyway now trying to reach my destination at full speed.

"Put your fucking seatbelt on!" she screamed once she felt the violent tremble of the car growling harder.

Her eyes were closed so she couldn't see me smile in satisfaction when she told me to do something to benefit my own safety, though I didn't comply.

In no time at all we were at the top of the platue where I had taken Inuyasha when he was a lot younger and still looked up to me. It's where I taught him how to play baseball. Their were trees surrounding the area, but right in the middle was a huge round dirt crater.

I parked on the edge of the forrest and heard her sigh in relief.

"What the hell was that all about?" she screamed with tears still streaming down her face.

"If you wanted to give me a heart attack, congratulations, I think you just succeeded!"

I felt like an ass now for making her so upset, but when I was driving I felt pretty smug.

"Just tell me what I did to make want to kill-"

I took her into my arms and held her tightly for fear that she would try to pull away. Their was no reasonable explanation for my actions so I just held her and refused to let go.

Rin

I wanted to push him away and hit him for pretty much kidnapping me from school and nearly giving me a heart attack three different times in the past ten minutes, but now I felt safe. Being tight and secure in his arms, I knew everything was going to be fine. I sighed and relaxed a little. He smelled like...I don't know...my world.

His hold was crushing and I needed to breathe.

"Sesshomaru?"

"Yes?" he asked hesitantly as he released his hold just enough to be able to see my face.

"Im sorry if I upset you." I said this not knowing what else to say.

"Why weren't you at school earlier?" he asked, his voice cracking.

"Partly because I missed the bus, and the other, I didn't know if you would want me to be their..." I mumbled, thinking as I was saying this that maybe I shouldn't have said that last part.

"Rin...I marked you as my mate. I was devastated!"

"Well I didn't know, and still don't know how a lot of these things work. I went to an all human school in the States." I said this trying to remain calm and not snap at him, remembering that he could snap me like a twig at the very least.

"Rin," he sighed, while taking my hand in his and placing it on his chest, over his heart.

"Please don't make me explain everything to you. It's so complicated."

"Theirs no need to. We're getting the mark revoked anyway, right?" I asked.

His eyes widened as if he were in agony, for only the briefest of moments and then he was back to his stoic masked self.

"Is that what you want Rin?" he asked closing his eyes, almost sounding hurt.

"Sesshomaru...I don't even know you. Before I met you, which was yesterday for god's sake, I was petrified of demons and this morning I had breakfast with Ayame! Im not ready to commit the rest of my life to someone that I just met yesterday."

"Very well then. We'll put in a request to meet with demon council Friday after school," he said sounding as impassive as ever.

I nodded in thanks. I couldn't believe it was that easy, but I was grateful. Then it occurred to me.

"Where do we go from here?" I asked feeling a bit awkward to still be in his embrace when we just agreed to get the mark revoked.

"We go back to school," he sighed, "it may be wise to stick close to me though until we get the mark removed. Mina will be pissed off at you even though its not your fault. Im obviously strong, but I can only protect you when I know your in danger, which will be within a 100 feet of me."

"Why do you care?" I asked impulsively.

"Until the mark is gone we'll continue to be linked together. I can feel all your pain, emotional and physical, and vise versa. That means I have to lay off InuYasha until then or our fight could mean your life would be harmed."

"Oh..." was all I could get my mouth to form to his response.

Back at school, Drama class had just started and we were warming up.

'Oh what an eventful day this has turned out to be,' I sighed to myself, and here it was not even 10:00 yet!

Hope you don't mind the shortness! I'll try not to take a year to up date again next time!
