Rin traced patterns into the shuttle window that she was riding in on her way to her new school, Shikon Advanced School of Ice-Skating. *squeak squeak*

"Hmm, hmm." Rin didn't even realize that she was humming as she thought about her new school, and who might be there-even-she smiled at the very idea-Sesshomaru, her idol. She had heard about love at first sight but-Rin laughed aloud, causing the shuttle's other passenger to raise an eye-brow at her.

"Huh, sorry." Rin cleared her throat, and went back to tracing patterns on the window. She closed her eyes as she thought back to when she left.

~Flashback~
"Bye Mom, Kagome, Inuyasha." Rin gave a hug to each of them. "I'll miss you all lots. Even you, jerk."

"Rin!" Mrs. Higarashi scolded as Rin chuckled. "Be nice to Inuyasha." Rin nodded but behind her back stuck out her tongue childishly at him, which earned her the middle finger in return.

"Kag.I will miss you. Rin's sorry you can't come," Rin whispered into Kagome's shirt as she hugged her sister for the last time until next year. "I'll write."

"You better." Kagome grinned and pushed Rin up. "I'll wait for it." Rin ran to the shuttle and waved one last time. ~Flashback Ended~

She paused in her incessant doodling on the window to glance at the other passenger. He had long silver hair, and golden eyes. She wondered fleetingly if they were contacts. He's pretty handsome too, actually more than handsome, almost gorgeous, she mused, though the exceedingly formal outfit kinda ruins the effect.

Here goes."What's your name?" she asked him. He glanced at her dismissively. "Sesshomaru."

"No last name?" All that earned Rin was a death-glare that made her giggle uncomfortably and look away.

Weird girl. Sesshomaru thought. Usually they get they picture by now. Maybe she's stupider than the rest? Though she is quite pretty. Sesshomaru took the time while she was staring at the ground to inspect her more carefully: Long black hair, liquid brown eyes, a nice casual look. Sesshomaru looked down at his own outfit, a stiff black suit with a white shit and tie. Suddenly, he felt almost embarrassed, which made him feel angrier toward her, as if she was the cause.

Meanwhile the thoughts from Rin were: Okay.Short and simple, (and rude) that's nice.and Sesshomaru! Wait-wait-wait.did I hear that right? I know I did. I mean how many Sesshomaru's can there be? It's not like it's a common name. Hmm.I should ask if he has a brother.later.

"Sesshomaru, right?" Rin grinned at him, motioning that her hearing was poor, a lie of course, but whatever.

"Yes." was the biting reply.
Okay.unfriendly isn't he.not that that ever stopped me before. So therefore, to uphold Rin's rapidly deflating ego, she went on. (a/n: bad bad idea.do not piss off the fluffy-sama)

"So, have you gone to this school before?" Rin inquired, determined to keep up her cheerful and friendly façade.

"Yes." Sesshomaru glanced away, outside, hoping the damn girl (he never even asked her her name) would get the hint and shut up. "Shut up." Well, Sesshomaru was never one to mince words and thoughts now, was he?

Ruder.Rin glowered at him. Just for that, she wouldn't. Smiling sweetly (bad sign) she said, "Sorry, you know my hearing's bad. Could you say that again, Sesshy-something? I forgot your name too, silly me." Take that, she thought triumphantly. I win.

Sesshomaru glanced at her disbelievingly. Was that a challenge? Well, this Sesshomaru was never one to back down from a challenge. "Oh my, you're deaf. Why, that's so sad. It's a good thing this school has private classes for hearing-impaired students, to get them to learn sign language and all that. They'll probably start you at the beginning level, though wouldn't you already be there? You're almost a child after all."

He sat back calmly as she sputtered incomprehensibly. "What! No wait- " Sesshomaru went on contentedly. "It's alright, there's nothing wrong with being deaf, unless it's being dumb."*

Rin sat back, gaping. He's good, she thought. Well, then, I'll just have to get better won't I? "Oh, my, I know. It must be terrible for you. I mean, considering your speaking skills I mean, you're just as good as dumb. I hope people don't laugh at you for that." Double-edged meanings, huh? Well, I can play that game too.

Sesshomaru glared at Rin. Rin glared right back. The driver, probably feeling a little nervous now, and with good reason, cleared his throat loudly. "Um.we'll be there in about ten minutes."

The car drove along in silence for about five more minutes, until the silence was broken by Rin's clear silvery laughter.

What is she laughing at? Sesshomaru thought to himself. He held in the temptation to ask, but was finally won over by curiosity. "What are you laughing about?" he asked.

"Us." She snickered, as she laughed some more, and then even more when she saw Sesshomaru's confused face.

"What?" Sesshomaru sat back, convinced now that he was riding with a total wacko.

"Let's start over." Rin offered, still laughing a little. "I'm Rin, Rin Higarashi."

Sesshomaru stared at her. What a weirdo-wait.Rin.that name sounds familiar. Hmm.Won over yet again by curiosity, he asked, "Rin.that sounds familiar. Have I met you.?"

Rin paused momentarily. Was he really that Sesshomaru? Well, better not to say until she was sure. "Probably not." Oh well. "But I did meet this guy who was like you when I was like, eight. I think his name was like yours too.Do you have a brother?"

Sesshomaru thought for a bit. Oh yeah, when this little brat crashed into him on the skating rink. Though, come to think of it, that brat was sorta cute."Huh.well, I don't remember anything like that. But yes, I do have a brother, half anyway." He wondered why he lied about that, but he dismissed the thought under the label "Unimportant."

Rin was thinking about asking what his brother's name was, just to see if it was Inuyasha but one look at his icy countenance was enough to dissuade her.

The two sat in silence for the remaining two-minute trip. "Well, alright. We're here. Welcome to your new home." The driver said.

Thunder boomed in the distance, and it started to rain. Rin got out and just stared at the building in front of her. It was huge! "Wow!" she gasped.

"Big, isn't it?" Sesshomaru commented dryly, watching in amusement. "Just wait until you see inside."

"This is soo cool!" Rin exclaimed, dancing around in delight, while Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. "I can't wait to see inside! I wonder where's my room! Who'm I going to share it with, do you think? *Lalala*"

"Get your bags and stop blabbering." Sesshomaru brushed past her and walked over to the trunk, while Rin stared, hurt. "Hmph!" she snapped. Rin walked over, grabbed her bags, dumped them on his toe accidentally-on- purpose and then dragged them toward the school.

"Shit." Sesshomaru hissed as he hopped on one foot, holding the other tightly in his hands. "Ow." He glared after Rin's back as she stomped to the school, almost tripping in the process, which caused him to bite his cheek to keep from smiling. Grabbing his luggage, he limped after her.

"Bastard," Rin muttered. Huh, but, she smiled as she remembered the look on his face when she had dumped all her luggage on his foot. Idiot.She stopped in front of the school and opened the door, then started to close it in his face. BAM! Sesshomaru grabbed the door and slammed it open, causing all the occupants inside to jump along with Rin, who jumped almost a foot in the air.

"Don't - do - that." Sesshomaru snarled. Rin grinned nervously. "Sure, sure." She stepped away from him and walked toward the office, blushing at the stares she received.

"Um.Hi." She smiled and bowed timidly.
"Hey, now, don't be shy. What's your name?" Rin looked up at the desk, which had a nametag saying Kaede, Headmistress. "Rin, ma'am." "Just call me Kaede, like everyone else."

The door opened behind her, startling her once again. "Hey." Sesshomaru closed the door and leaned against the frame. "Kaede. How's it going?"

"Worse, now that you're here," Kaede returned, though she smiled at him afterward. "It's nice that you've got a girlfriend now though."

The two stood for a moment, frozen, then: "What!" they both exclaimed. "No-wait-you don't understand-"

"I know, I know. Forgive me my little joke." Kaede grinned, then was all down to business. "Okay, well, Sesshomaru, you have your regular room, with Jaken. And you, Rin, well, hmm, how about Kikyou? Yes, that'll do fine. Here's your keys, close the door on your way out. Also, just to let you know, Rin, this isn't just a skating school. You'll be learning all the other stuff you usually learn too. So be prepared. Here's your schedule as well, and you too, Sesshomaru."

Rin walked out, dazed. "Well, that went fast didn't it?" she murmured. "Hmph." Sesshomaru snapped back, walking out toward his room muttering about stupid toads having to do with this guy named Jaken. "Oh, his roommate." She realized. "Poor guy," she hummed as she walked toward her room, which as chances had it, right next to Sesshomaru's.
