Chapter 39
Although it had taken a while to calm her mate, everything had worked out; he had accepted the fact that she had chosen to fight and to stay in her seat of power even when he was not around; however it had taken much longer to get him to forgive her for choosing to not only fight but to hide the fact that she was with a child from the whole house. After they had announced to the house that she was with a child it had been made clear that this news were not to leave the clan house until after the winter ball. Any who would dare to break their law would be handed over directly to Lord Sesshomaru himself. But that would not stop Rin from telling her best friends, since Kagome had already known about this when it happened, she still needed to tell Sango and Ayame; if only she could not only find the right time but the right way to tell them.
Rin currently found herself in her room with a very happy Ayame and an annoyed Sango, they had arrived not long ago and had each ordered what they wished to drink. They were meeting at the outer guest house on the privet land of her mother and father and knew that that was the farthest that her mate would allow her to go. Knowing that it would be best to try to help her best friend first, Rin turned to look at Ayame only to smile when she heard Ayame say, "don't look at me, she hasn't told me a thing and I'm starting to get annoyed as well."
"It's nothing…let's just get on with our meeting…I have to get back soon. By now Miroku must be telling my father that I took the bike against their better wishes." Sango hissed out.
"Um…sounds like they are finally getting along." Ayame teased with a grin on her face.
"Oh shut the fuck up Ayame, what the hell do you know. One fucking minute they are fighting as to how I should be treated and how I should be allowed to run my life and the next thing I know they are both ganging up on me about how my bike isn't a proper thing to be riding or using to get around since I am the current heir to the House of Taijiya! It is all so fucking ridiculous!" Sango roared in anger, while her spar with her brother had helped her get her mind over all of this, she was still pissed off as hell about the whole thing and most of all with her father and husband's current actions.
"Wow…talk about pms…but seriously Sango…what's up?" Rin was heard as she and Ayame took their seats.
"Nothing is wrong…are we going to finish our plans or what?" Sango mumbled in a defeated voice, she hadn't meant to snap at them, they after all had nothing to do with what was going on at her house; she just needed to get use to things.
"Um…I suppose we could start with that." Rin whispered as she turned to look at Ayame.
"I think that would be the smart thing to do right now." Ayame pointed out.
"Uh…sorry, I'm really sorry…I'm just stressed and annoyed…my father says that just because we're married doesn't mean we get to share a room. He won't allow us the same bed room until I'm ready to bare an heir to the House of Taijiya…can you believe that? I haven't even been named the Lady of the House of Taijiya and he is already thinking about things like the next fucking heir!" Sango explained in a tried, hurt and pissed off voice.
"If it makes you feel any better I'm on the same boat." Ayame pointed out before adding, "And in a way I see their point…I'm not ready to be a mother…I'm still trying to get the hangs of things, having a baby right now would only add to my plate."
"Um…then I guess this would be a bad time to tell you girls that I'm pregnant." Rin's small voice was heard as she looked away from her friends. 'Well hell…hope they aren't going to call me crazy for that one…or stupid for not being more prepared.'
"Of come on Rin, it's not that we're saying its bad, if you think you're ready to be a mother then go for it…but I'm not…we're not." Sango explained in a soft gentle voice of her own so that she would ensure that her friend knew that they would never thinking badly of her.
"Yeah, we would never belittle you for anything…I'm so happy for you. If you need help with anything then you just name it." Ayame growled out with a grin on her face as she raised her cup of tea to the two.
"Good to hear, now are we going to get down to business?" Rin growled out with a much happier tone of voice.
"I guess…anyway, we really need to figure out the last bit of the plan…is Inuyasha going to stay with his family up until Kagome makes her appearance or is he going to go and meet with her so that he can walk in with her?" Ayame was heard before she quickly added, "Because if they go in separately by demon law it only causes problems for them."
"Um…that's true…but then again how are we going to get him out of there for a small amount of time so that he can go meet with his mate." Rin added in.
"I can give him a window…three minutes tops…anything longer than that and we would all be fucked." Sango was heard as she kept her eyes on the now quiet Rin.
"Or we could always just tell Inuyasha the plan and make sure he sticks to it." Ayame suggested with a wicked grin on her face as she began to catch up on her friend's thoughts.
After taking in a deep breath, Rin shook her head and said, "That won't work, knowing my brother he will not stick to the plan…we're just going to have to start up a rumor and make sure that everyone is waiting for the two of them."
"What kind of rumor?" Sango asked in a worried voice before adding, "This is our friends we're talking about…why would we even want to talk about them and make sure that everyone, including the bitch that has her goons out looking for her."
"I get it…" Ayame trailed off with a grin on her face before adding, "Smart, very smart," as everything that was running through Rin's mind began to make perfect sense.
"I don't, so one of you bitches better explain it to me now." Sango hissed out.
"Uh…If they're together they're stronger, if they're strong then no one, not even my father, will be able to touch them." Rin explained with a grin on her face. "In other words they would officially be announced as mates they will be able to prove their power while facing that cold hearted bitch and proving themselves to the council as well."
"Two birds with one fucking stone." Ayame growled out with a grin on her face.
"If you say so…but we are going to stand by them…it's high time that everyone sees just how Japan's Five Great Houses' are supposed to act like." Sango stated.
"Great, then I'll see you girls at the party, I have to get back…I have a meeting in an hour and Koga is out making sure that everyone is getting along now we have settled the more recent fight between those that were opposed of our mate ship." Ayame stated as she stood up to leave.
"Wait, so are we going to go with a rumor or are we going to pull something crazy off like always?" Sango asked in a confused filled voice.
"Um…now that is a tough one." Ayame growled out.
"For now we'll all just have to sleep on it, we have a bit more time to meet again before the winter ball." Rin stated as she moved to stand up.
"Are you in a hurry? You're the one that called us. If you had things to do we wouldn't have minded something at a later time?" Sango stated in a worried filled voice.
"Hell we would have been more than happy to show up in the middle of the night if we would have had too." Ayame joined in.
"No, I just have to go and let my mate and brother know of our plan, I'm going to need Sesshomaru's help keeping Inuyasha home so that our parents won't question it." Rin stated in a tried voice.
"Rin…" both her friend called to her as they froze.
"What?" Rin asked in a much stronger voice as she tried to convince them that she was fine. While she was getting some rest, she was not getting as much as the doctor had told her she would needed and it was starting to take its toll on her mind and body.
"Please, just make sure that you take care of yourself." Sango stated in a calm and serious voice as she approached one of her best friends.
"And make sure you get some fucking rest…I mean it." Ayame growled out before storming out of the room after giving a short nod at Sango's waiting eyes.
As she watched Sango walk over to stand by her, Rin took in a deep and calming breath before asking, "She's going to go and tell my mate that I'm tired and that I'm pushing myself…isn't she?"
"Yup…I probably would have done the same thing but she's always been the faster one and we can't afford to let you go as you have been for much longer." Sango answered with a smile on her face before stepping out of Rin's striking range.
"Bitch!" Rin growled out at her retreating friend only to smile when she heard Sango happy reply call back, "Love ya too! Besides, you're the real bitch!"
'Great…I better get to my room before Sesshomaru comes finds me.' Rin thought as she closed the door to the study room they had been using before making her way toward her room in the main house. They all had to be ready, they had to be ready for what was to come otherwise…otherwise Kagome would lose everything and they would lose their best friend, which was something she was not going to allow, not for the second time at least.
