Springtime
It was that time of the year again when the Cherry Trees were abloom. For some it was a season of joy, and new beginnings, but for Sesshomaru it was a time of tears and rejection. As he walked by the brick road of the beautiful sakura tree row by the school, his brows met in concentration. His locker will be filling up with more confessions/invitations soon. For some reason, girls find confessing under the cherry tree more... romantic? He wouldn't know.
He didn't care.
What he worried about was how to reject another batch of love struck girls. For even if he didn't care, he admitted he hated to see anyone cry.
He stopped as his eyes met a picture-perfect sight. His lips curved into a small smile. "Inuyasha," he called out, and his brother brightened up upon seeing him.
"Onii-san!" Inuyasha regarded happily, adjusting his foot on the pedal of the bicycle. The couple had just stopped by under a sakura tree to watch the cherry blossoms fall. Inuyasha was driving, Kikyo was at the back as a passenger, arms around his waist. There was a gentle shower of pink blossoms from above them.
They looked like they had just materialized from a K-drama his father loved to watch at 9:00pm.
"Are you not riding in the car with me today?" Big brother stopped in front of them, and Inuyasha brought his glance back to the beautiful shower.
"Maybe tomorrow. We wanted to drive by and see the this." his little brother smiled as Kikyo reached out to catch stray petals. Inuyasha in turn extended his own hand to support hers.
Sesshomaru looked away, feeling the beginnings of a toothache.
"Well, see you at home, Onii-san!" Inuyasha waved, Kikyo holding tighter around his waist with a demure smile. "Nice seeing you, Taisho-san!" she waved as well and they rode off.
