Chapter 11 Entering His Heart
(R)
I stood there, staring longingly into his amber orbs. I did love him, with all my heart. I felt so much joy from being his girl, so much joy knowing that he wanted me too. I couldn't be with any other man. No matter what happened now, I knew that I would always and forever be in love with this youkai, My Sesshomaru. I looked down at our hands, laced together. I watched as he unlaced our fingers to put his finger on my chin, making me look at him. I watched as his face softened for the first time. It showed conflict, but it showed happieness as well. It was heartwarming, feeling his finger touch my skin. And it left a sensation I couldn't ever think of feeling in my life. I know my eyes teared up again. I blushed, embarrassed, trying to look away. But he wouldn't let me. My eyes stared deeply into his, and I wondered what he was thinking about.
"What are you thinking about Lord Sesshomaru?" I asked.
(S)
Looking into her eyes gave me a great joy. It was weird to admit myself to her. To finally let her know that I couldn't be without her. I stood their, holding her hand. I tried to make things the way I envisioned them in my mind but it was just....different. I was new to this. I was slightly conflicted with myself, different thoughts racing in my mind. I couldn't say much to her, knowing that I'd probably sound like some love sick dog..and I didn't want to lose what was left of my demon side. I was still that vain. But now I knew, I admitted to myself, grudgingly, that I understood the way that stupid half breed felt. I knew what it felt like to have a need to protect someone. I felt my face grow soft, knowing that my eyes betrayed me either way. She looked down at our hands, and I did too. But not for long. I wanted to stare at that gentle face....forever. I lifted her chin, forcing her to look at me. I watched as her loving brown eyes tear up and she blushed scarlet, trying to look away. I tugged at her chin, telling her in my own way not to hide from me.
"What are you thinking about Lord Sesshomaru?" As if it wasn't obvious. I stayed silent, smiling at her.
(R)
I waited patiently for his answer. He seemed to be thinking deeply about what to say. I placed one hand, shyly, on the side of his cheek. His eyes changed then. They became deteremined. I cocked my head to the side, confused and curious.
(S)
I didn't know what to tell her and she waited for my answer. The minutes passed and I still kept quiet. She did the strangest thing then. She placed her hand gently on the side on my face. And my heart raced. What is with me? What is this? I felt joy in that touch, and I never wanted her hand to leave my face. I looked at her, knowing that I could say it now...now that I realized what this feeling was.
"Rin.." I said kindly.
(R)
"Rin..." He said in the sweetest voice I have ever heard. My heart grew unsteady as I waited in anticipation for his answer. I knew that if his hand wasn't holding me still, I'd be boucning off the wall.
(S)
I waited another minute until I finished that sentence..I wanted to be absolutely sure. I gazed at her tear stained face smiling at me.
"Rin..." I said again.
(R)
"Yes, Lord Sesshomaru?" I asked him, my head still cocked to the side. He laughed at me. "What?" I said, laughing back. His laugh was amazing, it played a tune that my heart loved.
(S)
"Yes, Lord Sesshomaru?" She asked.. I laughed then. It was out of no where but I knew that we should get something straight..
"You no longer have to call me Lord Sesshomaru. Just Sesshomaru." I told her smirking. Her eyes widened a bit and I knew what my ears wanted to hear. "Say it." I told her in a kind but ordering voice. I watched her cheeks turn red again and I chuckled silently to myself.
"..S...Sesshomaru." She mumbled. I stared at her, raising my eye brow. "Sesshomaru." She said louder, more confident and sure of herself. I watched her, placing my hand over the one that held my face.
"Rin.." I started again.
(R)
He told me that I no longer had to call him Lord Sesshomaru. It's just like in my dream. It made me happy and my face felt hot. He placed his hand over my own, which made me smile wider.
"Rin..." He said again. This day couldn't get any better than this. I felt myself go a bit lightheaded.
(S)
"Rin...I love you." I told her. Her eyes looked like they were about to pop out of her face. I wrapped my arm around her waist, crushing her body against mine. "I love you. And I never want you to leave me. I love you." I told her again. I felt her tears soak my kimono as she gracefully put her limp arms on my chest. I placed my head ontop of hers and felt her whole body go limp. I supported her weight and felt her breathing become shallow. What now? Did I make her faint? I layed her body down on the grass and watched as it began to change again. I felt the breeze pick up to a draft and we were suddenly surrouded by daisies again.
"The time has come. What is your choice Lord Sesshomaru?" The little white orb said to me, appearing above her sleeping face. I looked down at her face, suddenly unsure of what to do. I know I thought it over and over in my mind, thinking of every possibility. Her eyes opened, though she remained unconscious. I watched them turn amber brown again. And within that look I knew that I had something to declare to her, to my mother, and to myself.
"I, Sesshomaru, have someone to protect. It is you Rin. And I, Sesshomaru, fear losing this girl." I said outloud, knowing that my mother and the spirit were pleased. I leaned down to her face, sure of the choice that I was making.
