Not Like Before

Sesshoumaru slept soundly against a tree. Something he'd been missing out on for the past....well... Years don't matter right? Anyway, it was about time he'd gotten some peace and qu-
"RIIIIIIIIIIIN!" Jaken screeched and chased after the girl who had stole his staff.
After glaring at Jaken for a while, he let his gaze flicker on the girl. She still adorn flowers in her hair on occasion, like now. But he was no longer able to call her a 'girl'. She had matured... For the most part. Notice, she still teased Jaken at every chance. But that's beside the point. Her figure had filled out over the years also. Sesshoumaru had saved her when she was young, around seven he guessed. But she was now nearing seventeen (A/N: my fav magazine XD hey! That rhymes!) She should be married by now, with a family and home. Yet she still chose to remain with him. He had given her plenty of chances to leave had she wanted to, to live a normal human life. But each time, she had ignored it.
For ten years Rin had been traveling with him and Jaken. At first, he saw her as something to keep him from being bored. A petty human girl to annoy Jaken Which, by the way, she has done well ever since.
When Rin had turned nine, he found that he liked her. He could tolerate her and the fact that she was a mere human. And by the time Rin was eleven, the Demon Lord found (to his horror) that he loved her... As a daughter of course! Someone he could protect and watch over. He even let it pass when she occasionally let her loving 'pet name' slip. He shuddered.... 'Fluffy-sama..." Ugh, he retched hanyou brother used to call him that. But with Rin, it was ok. Because well... She was Rin.
Things weren't that simple now though. Rin was a lady. Sure, she still acted like a child every now and then... Ok... So she acted like a child a lot. But like said before, that was beside the point. Sesshoumaru was well aware that she was no longer a little girl. She had long since dropped the -sama after his name. Probably around fifteen. Gawd, he was good at keeping track of this stuff. Anyway, She simply called him Sesshoumaru....Fluffy-sama when she really wanted something. Like that new kimono she was wearing now. Which, might I add, was now covered in dirt. Gr.... But that is getting wayyyyy off the subject. The point was, he didn't know what to think of Rin as any more. He still loved her, he knew that. It just wasn't exactly like before. Not like the platonic love he felt for her when she was tiny, not like a daughter.
Rin ran past him n that moment, still being chased by Jaken. So as the 'toad' ran past him as well to catch Rin, Sesshoumaru stuck out an elegant foot and tripped him.
"Thanks Fluffy-sama!" Rin beamed and kissed the top of his head as Jaken struggled to get up, causing him to blush. If he hadn't known any better he would say she was flirting. But... Nah, not his Rin. As Jaken finally climbed to his feet, Rin hit him... Again, over the head with his staff.
"RIIIN!" And the chase continued.
'No...' Sesshoumaru thought, 'Not like before.'

I might make this into a whole story o.O I don't know yet. I'll have to think about it. They'll be pretty short chapter's though x.x one page... Wow.... That's short.
