*Rin and Illasu*
Illasu awakened very early. She saw the TV was still humming from the movie. Rin was all strung out on the couch. His arms were thrown behind his head and one leg was hanging off the couch entirely. His face was hidden in his hair and he was sound asleep. Illasu rubbed her head. She peeked at the clock. It was early in the morning. It was still dark out though, barely. She couldn't get up because Rin was in the way. If she pushed herself up, she would be pushing on him. He took up the whole darn couch! She put her chin down on his chest and tried to think of something. The remote was on the table. She might be able to reach it with her foot. She looked at Rin and tried. She almost had it...THUMP! Illasu got unbalanced and Rin slid off the couch landing in a half somersault and she landed on her butt. Rin was laughing hysterically.
Illasu: What!
Rin: What was that!
Illasu: I don't know...oh, falling is not good for the butt.
Rin: Duh! You were reaching for the remote weren't you?
Illasu: No!
Rin: Illy, I know you. You didn't want to wake me up.
Illasu: So...
He got out of his unusual position and crawled over. He hugged and kissed her. She was still rubbing her butt when there was a loud knock on the door. Rin was still laughing hysterically and Illasu chucked a pillow at him as he opened the door. He put his arms up in defense and Yugo waved.
Yugo: Should I come back later Illasu?
Illasu: Hello Yugo! And no, he was just getting his butt kicked!
Rin: Was not, hey what's up?
Yugo: You, me, mall, NOW!
Rin: Jeez! Ok, Come on in and I'll get changed. Illasu, be nice.
Illasu stuck her tongue out at him as he walked to the closet. He noticed his pants were kind of a little big and were falling off his hips. He grabbed them and ran to the closet. He looked at the tag and saw that they were Yugo's. Oh well, he thought, I'll keep them anyway. He pulled out a pair of baggy khaki's (all his pants are baggy) and a T-shirt. It was a deep green and had a silver eagle emblem on it. He pulled them both on and walked back out into the living room. He saw Yugo and Illasu laughing at him. Illasu was pointing and Rin blushed. She got up and walked with him to the bathroom. She took him to the mirror and showed him the tuft of hair that was sticking up. She laughed some more and Rin laughed at it himself. He grabbed a brush and tried to get it down. He brushed and brushed but it still stood. Illasu stood on the toilet and took the brush and armed herself with a bottle of hairspray. She made Rin look at her while she worked. She had to use a little hairspray. Rin lifted her shirt a little and kissed her stomach. Illasu made him look up though. She wasn't done. She looked it over and noticed he had a huge rat in his hair. Probably from not having a shower in awhile. He had taken one last night because she had heard the water running and his hair was still wet. He evidently forgot to use conditioner, she mumbled. She was getting tired of standing and asked him to go sit down on the bed. They came out, Illasu holding the brush in his hair where she was working and Rin sat down. Yugo was laughing and Rin pointed a finger in his direction. He muffled his laughter and Rin lowered his head. Illasu had to get on her knees on the bed. It wasn't as bad as standing. She slowly got every strand untangled till she could get a comb through it all.
Yugo: Today please!
Illasu: Hold on! There's one more.
Illasu sat and just continued to twine it in her fingers. It was so soft she was beginning to think he did use it after all. She finally set the brush and comb down on the bed. Rin turned to look at her and kissed her. Yugo was up and tapping his foot. Rin saw him and so he continued. Illasu had no objections. Yugo finally came over and tapped him on the shoulder.
Yugo: Last chance! Rin, they won't have that one game (winks slightly) you wanted at the videogame store!
Rin: All right, I'm coming. Wait outside please.
Yugo: I'm giving you 2 minutes. That's it, then I'm leaving.
Rin: All right, go already!
Yugo opened the door and shut it as he waited outside. Rin put his hands on Illasu's face and looked at her. He smiled and she gave him a big hug. He wasn't going to let go but she got up and while he was still hugging her, walked on his feet. She made it to the door and he kissed her again before reaching out to turn the knob himself. He opened it and Yugo was there. He smiled and pointed his thumb towards the parking lot. Rin looked back and she waved and smiled.
Rin: I'll be back in a while. Bye, I love you!
Illasu: You better go! I love you too!
Yugo: C'mon man!
Illasu stuck her head out and watched him run to catch up. Luckily she did. Rin had no shoes on. She ran and grabbed his pair of shoes that were like an off-brand Doc Marten. She ran to catch up to them and she ended up yelling at them in the parking lot. Rin ran back and took them from her. When he reached for them, she pulled them back. He kissed her and grabbed the shoes at the same time.
Rin: Where would I be without you?
Illasu: Bare-sock-feet in a shopping mall. Now hurry up. Yugo really wants to go!
Rin: Thanks Illy!
He hopped to his motorcycle putting on a shoe with each hop and then jumped onto it. Yugo was already down the road. Rin started his up and peeled out.
Illasu: SHOW OFF!
She watched him catch up to his brother as the Tuesday sun came up. She really wished he would ride with a helmet. She went back inside to the dorm. She decided she would go to class today. She actually hadn't enrolled in any yet so she would do that with Squall after she got dressed.
*Illasu*
She jogged back to her dorm and changed into a orange T-shirt with a butterfly on it and the word 'FLIRT' across it with a number. It was Japanese looking. She slipped on her dark jean short shorts and braided her hair in pigtails quickly. She brushed her teeth and slipped on her tennis shoes. She picked her glasses up and stuck a pencil behind her ear on the way out. She was finishing tying her shoes as she walked to Squall's dorm. She looked a little odd when a chocobo-boxered Squall answered the door sleepily. She looked up when she was done and waved to him. He motioned her in. She stepped in and sat down on the couch.
Illasu: Hey Squall!
Squall: Yeah?
Illasu: Can you go with me to see Cid about enrolling in some classes?
Squall: What?
He was standing in-between the bathroom and closet in his black pants but his shirt was off. He was in the middle of putting it on and he wasn't really awake. Illasu looked away and blushed a little. Squall noticed and freaked. He pulled it on and came over. He sat in a chair at the desk and put his elbow on his knee. Placing his head in his hand, he apologized.
Squall: Sorry about that...
Illasu: Should I come back later?
Squall: No, we'll just have to stop by the cafeteria. Where's Rin?
Illasu: Shopping spree with some plastic. Why?
Squall: How good are you with a sword?
Illasu: Why do you ask?
Squall: Well, if you want you can come and practice with me at the T.C.
Illasu: I better not. I want to try going to class.
Squall: Yeah but what were you planning on doing after that? Class only goes till 3:00, sometimes 5. Will he be back by then?
Illasu: No, probably not, but I usually work in the stables.
Squall: Wanna make an exception just this once?
Illasu: I don't know, oh and I'm not really good with a sword. I just flail it around.
Squall: How good are you at this flailing?
Illasu: Good enough with a blunt sword to bonk Selphie in the head.
Squall: Did you tell Rin about the deal with Cid and me escorting you yet?
Illasu: Dag nabit! No, I forgot!
Squall: Illasu! Oh well, just try to tell him tonight, okay?
Illasu: So, are we gonna go or what?
Squall: Sure, man you get up early! It's only like 7 am!
Squall opened the door and she walked out. He came out too and locked the door. They walked to the cafeteria and Squall got a bottle of pop. He brought Illasu some water because she had mentioned she was thirsty.
Illasu: I get up at different hours. Sometimes I don't sleep at all.
Squall: Have you thought about what you want to enroll in?
Illasu: Anything with art or like...science.
Squall Ok, well then you won't have much to chose from I'm afraid.
Illasu: What kind of art do you have?
Squall: That's more of a Selphie question. Science has Biology, Zoology, and Genetics. There might be more.
Illasu: Genetics is a must! I've always wanted to learn about it but our school never offered it. I want to take Biology too. Zoology is animals right?
Squall: Yeah, I think.
Illasu: (mumbles) Now we know who pays attention...
Squall: (laughing) What's that supposed to mean?
Illasu: Nothing, it's just that if you don't know what it's about and you taken it well...
Squall: Well what?
Illasu: Nothing Squall, jeez!
Squall: Uh huh...whatever.
Illasu: Here?
Squall: Uh huh.
They turned into a room where a woman sat typing away at a computer. She eyed Squall and looked at him with an eyebrow cocked. She had a huge smile on her face. Squall saw her and she gave him an invisible kiss. He shuddered. Illasu saw her and thought about it for a minute.
Illasu: You know Mrs...Adiemus, if I didn't know any better I would say you want him enough to cheat on your husband.
Illasu smiled hugely at her and moved her head a little to the side. Mrs. Adiemus' mouth gaped open and Squall tried to hold in his laughter. Illasu gave her a kind of 'what you gonna do about it' look. Squall thought she looked funny. Her eyebrows were up and she had her tongue shoved up in-between her gum and lip. It was very comical. Mrs. Adiemus looked at Squall as he laughed and felt very ashamed.
Squall: Mrs. Adiemus, can we please have her file? Illasu Marain is the name.
She got up and pulled it from the cabinet. Handing it to Squall she smiled. Illasu seized the opportunity. She snatched the file from her and put her face up to Mrs. Adiemus' and sort of growled at her. She actually bared her teeth Squall noticed. Mrs. Adiemus screamed and fell back a little before sending her out of the room. Illasu walked with her head held high and smiling. Mrs. Adiemus was fuming and yet she was terrified. Squall walked out holding his sides. Illasu was laughing too.
Illasu: I like you like this! We need to see her more often!
Squall: No one, in the entire history of the school records, has ever dared go up to her like that! That was good! She's stalked me forever!
Illasu: Maybe now she'll leave you alone.
Squall: You pick up details really well in little time. I say I have to agree with Cid when he said he wanted to make you a See D. You would be really good. Ok, now that we have your file, it's off to Cid we go.
Illasu: Oh joy...
Squall pushed the button to let them on the elevator. Illasu climbed in and they went up to see Cid.
*Irvine and Selphie*
There was a loud thump and Irvine woke up with a loud thump himself. He had fallen out of the bed, jostled from the noise. He looked over to see no one else but the uncoordinated Selphie piled on the floor with her pillow. She was sleeping soundly though. Irvine reached up and scratched his head. Her then remembered the blood. He went to the bathroom and quickly washed it off. He washed his whole face with cold water to wake himself up. It was really early. It was 7 am. Irvine got dressed and walked over to Selphie. He put a hand on her face and brushed her cheek. She woke up and stretched much like a cat would. She yawned and clutched the pillow to her. She opened two lazy eyes and smiled up at him.
Selphie: Hi...
Irvine: Hey...
Selphie: So, what to do today...
Irvine: You have to go. Remember?
Selphie: No, I don't.
She pulled him onto the floor and cuddled up next to him. He rolled over onto his side and shook his head.
Irvine: Selphie, seriously, you have to go.
Selphie: Irvy! Rajin won't care if I'm here! He never does.
Irvine: Seifer's on patrol today. Evidently someone forgot to look before she came.
There was a pounding at the door. Irvine scrambled to get up. When he was up, Selphie pulled him back down. She put a finger to her mouth. Irvine looked at her like she was the craziest person in the world. She however smuggled herself under the bed. She motioned for Irvine to come but he shook his head. So she pulled him under. She pulled the blanket under and over them. The door opened. Irvine was breathing to hard so Selphie kissed him to keep him quiet. She was getting pretty intimate when footsteps came into the room. Selphie and Irvine both stopped breathing and held it. They didn't dare move either. Seifer could be heard in muffled mumbles. He didn't sound happy. He opened Irvine closet and looked in his bed. When he saw no one was there, he noticed the under side of the bed was large enough to fit under. He got down on his hands and knees. Peering under, he saw a blanket stuffed under it. He mumbled another thing before putting the cover down alongside the bed. He walked out and they heard the door shut. Irvine was freaking and Selphie just kissed him again. Irvine let her. She could be a genius at hiding sometimes. So they kissed under the bed until it started getting really hot. Irvine threw the blanket over his head and Selphie lay on the floor, exhausted. She had never kissed him that long while holding her breath. She started to laugh. Irvine looked at her and he laughed himself. They had outsmarted Seifer. That wasn't really anything big but it was something. Irvine got out from under the dark-side and stretched. He was waiting for Selphie but she was asleep again under the bed. He decided that she was hidden enough to go out of the room. He then had a thought of what happened last week and decided he would have to get her up and take her to her room. She put her arms out when she was in the light of the room. Irvine leaned down and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He pulled up and picked her up. He put an arm behind her, holding her up on his shoulder, while he wrapped the blanket around her. He smiled and opened the door. He looked down the hall and saw no one. He walked out and shut his dorm. He started walking to her dorm when she spotted Squall and Illasu laughing and having a good time. He was immediately hurt. He sauntered on to Selphie's dorm and lay her down in the bed when he got there. He tucked her in and kissed her cheek goodnight. She was smiling in her sleep. Irvine thought about what she was dreaming about. He left without another word and locked her door for her. He walked out to where he last seen Illasu and Squall and saw them going up in the elevator. He decided to wait for them at the bottom.
*Yugo and Rin at the Mall*
Rin and Yugo had decided to get the surprise for Illasu first. They went into Helzberg and Rin got someone to talk to.
Rin: Yeah, hi, I had someone hold a ruby necklace for me. I was wondering if I could pick it up?
Lady: Of course, I have it right here.
She took out a fuzzy, cranberry box and Yugo came over. She opened it and laid it on the special cloth she had set out. Rin looked at it with a marvel. It was beautiful. Rubies were all set into a silver collar type necklace. It also had diamonds. He smiled and Yugo poked his head over.
Yugo: Woah! Check it out!
Lady: Your girlfriend is very lucky.
Rin: I was also looking for something else.
Yugo looked around and found an emerald bracelet for Shiro while Rin picked up the other something. They left to go find some nice clothes to wear. It was formal but Rin and Yugo didn't much care for tuxedos. Rin racked his brain trying to think what he could wear. A picture flashed through his mind of when him and his brother were about ten and dressed up to go to church. His mom had taken a picture of them. He laughed and Yugo smiled at him. They saw a store that had a lot of nice clothes so Rin and Yugo went in. Yugo went straight for the shorts but Rin pulled him back and reminded him that it would be really cold inside. It was honoring Shiva after all. So they walked over to the pants and jeans. Yugo looked at an armyish green color. Rin went to the khakis. He had a recall of his dad telling him khakis were nice to wear if you couldn't wear a suit. He found some that were loose fitting, basically not as baggy as the ones he had on now but baggy enough to cover the tops of his shoes. He liked loose fitting stuff. He took a pair of two different sizes and went to the fitting rooms while 'directing' his brother to the khakis. He got a pair and tried them on. Rin took the smaller of the two and paid for them. Yugo got his as well. Rin paid in cash. He didn't dare use the credit card. They walked out and Rin noticed it was almost 1:00 and he was getting hungry. So he let Yugo chose a place to eat.
Yugo: Well, we could go eat at Star Palace and see Ruka...
Rin: OK!
Rin had forgot all about talking to his sister. He ran out of the mall and Yugo had to sprint to keep up with him and his long legs. They hopped on their bikes and rode to the Palace. Rin hoped Ruka was there. They arrived and parked around back. Rin was the first one in. He looked for Ruka and asked Rynn where she was.
Rynn: She's in the front. Is something wrong?
Rin: No, it's just I have to talk to her.
Rynn: Okay, hey Yugo!
Yugo: Hey Rynn, can we get two clouded pools to the Galaxy please?
Rynn: You got it!
Rin burst through the doors and saw Ruka and Kuma at the Galaxy. He walked over, smiling because she was there. He leaned down and asked her if he could talk to her in private. She got up and they walked out side and down on the shore of the ocean. They got up on a huge rock and Rin began.
Rin: Ruka, you know how Illasu is kind of like a sister to us all?
Ruka: Uh huh...
Rin: Well, I have an idea and I wanted to ask you what you thought.
He told her and Ruka looked at him at first. Then she erupted into a mound of tears and screams of joy.
Rin: I guess that's an ok?
Ruka: Oh, Rin that's wonderful! What did Yugo think?
Yugo: I didn't like it...
Ruka: Hey Yugo...what?
Yugo: She is gonna freak!
Ruka: Who? Illasu?
Yugo: Yes! You both are blind if you can't see it!
Rin: She's practically our sister!
Yugo: What?
Rin: Yugo, there's something you don't know and if you did then you'd understand!
Yugo: Then tell me already!
Ruka: BOYS!
Rin and Yugo: Ruka?
Ruka: That's better. Ok, first off, Rin can make his own decisions. He just wanted our opinions. Rin, you can do whatever you want.
Rin: Thanks Ruka and Yugo I'm sorry you feel that way.
Yugo: Just don't hurt her...please.
Rin: How could I?
Yugo: Don't break her heart.
Rin: I promise you that. You can kick my butt if I do. Deal?
Yugo: You got it!
Ruka: Well, you guys better get in and eat! I hear you have some more shopping to do and it's already 2:00!
Rin and Yugo: Right!
They ran back and Ruka sat there, looking out at the ocean. She was happy for Rin and Illasu. They were getting along good. She took a deep breath and walked back to the restaurant. Rin and Yugo motioned her over to the table where they were eating. She sat down, ate her food and talked to them. An hour had gone by and they were headed back to the mall. It was already three o'clock and they had to shop for shirts and shoes. Rin went to get his shirt first and Yugo went for shoes. Rin picked out a red, collared, button down shirt that claimed it was silk. He went to the young lady and asked her. She nodded it was and he tried it on. It looked really good with his khakis and his hair. But mostly he liked it cause it was red. He smiled and took it off. His scar was reflected back at him in the mirror. He smiled. Usually that would have made him very sad. Now he was overjoyed to have it. He still had to show her the other thing though. He put his shirt back on and purchased it just as Yugo came in with a white T-shirt and a green, button down shirt but his was checkered in lines. It was really cute. Yugo smiled and went into the dressing rooms. Rin headed for the shoes. He thought he'd pick up a pair of the same shoes. Then he spied the real Doc Martens. He asked the guy to bring him a pair in his size and he tried them on. They looked really good. He looked at the tag. Over 100 gil! he shook his head. He'd have to go work extra. He was consulting in his head when Yugo stepped up, saw the shoes and picked them up. He took them to the counter and before Rin could protest, Yugo purchased them.
Yugo: Just looking out for ya bro!
Rin: That's harsh.
Yugo: Let's go! We can still make the videogame store and preview the new games!
Rin: Thanks. All right, I'm ready.
Yugo smiled, walked out and they went across the mall to the videogame store. It was already now, 4:30.
*Squall and Illasu*
They had arrived. Cid was writing on papers and looked up to see them. He stopped what he was doing as Squall sat down in the corner and Illasu sat in front of his desk.
Cid: Why do you insist on him coming with you every time?
Illasu: He's a friend. We met in the halls and he said he wanted to talk to me. He stayed because there was nowhere we could meet.
Cid: Very well, what is this about?
Illasu: I want to enroll in some classes.
Cid: Ok, what were you looking to do?
Illasu: Science and art, and if possible I wanted to go with Rin.
Cid: Uh huh, I see you have your file. Well, let me see (types on computer) we have one opening in Rin's Biology class. He doesn't take Zoology I'm afraid. Genetics is full, sorry.
Illasu: Can't you make room for one more?
Cid: Well, maybe...
Illasu: Please...
Squall was watching and was getting a little freaked out. Illasu winked at him and he settled down.
Illasu: It would be really great if you could squeeze me in...
Cid: Ok, I guess I could let you in. Zoology as well? No one that you know is in that class.
Illasu: I don't care.
Cid: As far as art goes we offer one class. I'll put you in for it.
Illasu: Thanks! Let's go Squall!
Cid: Sit down!
Illasu: But that's all I needed...
Cid: I want to enroll you in See D training.
Illasu: Oh no no...
Squall: I'll be her tutor, no class Cid.
Cid: I uh...well you are the commander.
Illasu: (mouths) Squall!
Cid: Then it's settled. You both are dismissed.
Squall: Thank you headmaster. Illasu?
She got up and walked out, not sure of what had just happened. Squall had her by the hand to steer her while she pondered it. He pressed the button on the elevator and they walked in. She paced around the small space and Squall grabbed her rm. It was driving him crazy. She steadied herself and looked him square in the eyes. She studied him. He had no expression, just an eyebrow raised curiously. Then it happened.
Illasu: WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!
Squall: What?
Illasu: Tutor! For a See D! I am not gonna be a See D!
Squall: Why not?
Illasu: Do you see me in a...a war?
Squall: Yeah, on the frontline. Why?
Illasu: Are YOU CRAZY!?
Squall: No, I told you. You make a great See D. You notice things...
Illasu: You said that. So, ok, well I guess I can't turn back.
Squall: I'll protect you.
Illasu stopped, short of breath. Rin had said that to her. She turned around and looked at him as the doors opened. He walked out and she was left standing in the elevator. She watched him walk away to the doors of the school and out. She looked at the floor and then ran after him. Curiosity had hit her hard. She was also a little worried. She burst through the school doors and Squall turned around. He looked at her with a blank expression. She walked up to him and looked in his eyes again. He blinked slowly. Everything seemed to slow down. She didn't realize what was happening before it happened. Squall had her by her hand and was leading her to the side of the school. He said something but she felt dizzy and didn't catch it. Then he was kissing her on the ground. She blacked out and felt like she was in a dream. She felt his warm hands around her and saw bright lights. There was another person in the room. She knew it from the talk going on. She was cold now. Laying on something hard, she sat up and saw Squall in the corner. He was looking at her. She rubbed her eyes and looked around. She was in Kadowakis' office. She tried to get off the table but someone was holding her down. She looked over to see Irvine there holding her arm down. She was still clothed. That's a plus, she thought, what happened was another story. She had no recall of what had just happened. She remembered Squall kissing her. She freaked when she felt a needle being jabbed in her side. She ripped away from the table and Squall was there. He had opened the door of the room. She leaped off the table towards it. Irvine scrambled to get her. When she leaped Squall, caught her and held her away from Irvine. She was so scared. She felt blood rushing out of her and grabbed her side. Her hand became bloody and she held it against the spot where a needle had been jabbed into her. Squall brought out his sword. Irvine moved aside and there was a dark figure in the other corner. Irvine came to Illasu's other side and held out his gun. They were both aiming at the figure. It laughed and she woke up. Illasu looked around and grabbed her side. There was no blood. Squall was there. He was shaking her a little. He was saying something. Illasu felt blankets underneath her. She felt a pillow and saw the big window. She was in the dorm.
Squall: Are you awake?
Illasu: What? What happened?
Squall: You were having a dream. It almost 7 pm and Rin and Yugo are coming back.
Illasu: Did you...
Squall: Did I what?
Illasu: When did I fall asleep?
Squall: You were pretty much out in the elevator. I carried you here. You seem all right.
Illasu: Yeah, I'm fine. You say Rin's gonna be back soon?
Squall: Yeah, he called. I told him you were asleep and I told him about me escorting you. He's ok with it. You want something to drink?
Illasu: No, I'm ok. Thanks Squall.
Squall: Well (kisses her on the cheek) ok. Don't worry, it was a friendly kiss. You are my friend after all Illasu.
Illasu: Thanks, for everything Squall. It was fun hanging out with you.
Squall: I've got to go. I'll see ya around.
He got up and left. Illasu found herself a little surprised she had fallen asleep. That was a horrid dream, she thought. She got up and took her silky leopard pants with her to the shower. She turned it on and the hot water rushed over her in the bath. She just lay in the tub until Rin got home.
*Rin*
He came in and saw the bathroom was open but there was steam coming from the room. He hid the necklace box and put his bags on the bed. He poked his head in and saw Illasu was relaxing in a hot bath. He saw her brown hair flipped over the back of the tub and that was about it. He was thankful. He didn't want to invade her privacy. She turned around because she had heard him and as he was going back to the other room, she said something.
Illasu: Hey, it's ok. I have a swimming suit on. I knew you were coming home.
Rin: Oh, (walks in) hey, are you ok?
Illasu: Yeah, I guess I was just tired.
Rin: You're like a cat, just sleep wherever, whenever huh? (pulls up his pant legs and sits behind her)
Illasu: (laughs) Yeah, I guess I am.
Rin slips his shirt off and kisses her forehead. She turns around in the tub and splashes water back at him. He laughs and grabs her hands. She stops slashing him and he puts his hands on her shoulders. Rin starts massaging her shoulders. Illasu is surprised by all of this.
Illasu: What videogame did you buy?
Rin: What do you mean?
Illasu: Why are you giving me a massage?
Rin: Because I love you and I bought Drakan. You'll like it.
Illasu: I like this. You're really good. I've actually never had a massage before. This is my first.
Rin: Well, then I hope I do a good job.
Illasu: You're doing quite wonderful...quite wonderful...
Rin: Don't fall asleep on me now.
Illasu: I'll try not.
He slid in with her and she laid her head on his chest. She closed her eyes and flipped her wet hair behind her. Rin took a deep breath and relaxed. He hated malls. Illasu was going to fall asleep. Rin noticed and he made her wake up. He got out of the tub and, pants dripping wet, walked into the closet. He changed into the white pants since they had been washed. Illasu came out of the bathroom surrounded in the light mist. She looked at Rin and smiled. He was amazed how much more beautiful she got. She was like a goddess. She threw the towel at him and it landed on his face. He got it off and threw it in the hamper. Her hair was wet but it was clean. Rin came over and covered her up. She was quite tired. He had gotten back really late. He regretted it. She looked really pretty. Illasu reached up and hugged him before turning over and dozing off. Rin had to work on some Biology for a while. He was tired but it had to be turned in in the morning. He sat at the desk and worked away. It was almost midnight before he climbed into bed. Illasu felt his warm body beside hers and turned over to look at him. He was asleep. She smiled and kissed him before falling back to sleep. It got quite dark in the room at night. She was afraid of the dark but having Rin there made it a little easier to sleep. He put a hand on her hip and pulled her closer. She snuggled up and fell asleep. Rin peered at her through one open eye. She was to at the same time and they both laughed. Finally, after they talked for a while, they both were out and asleep. Three days and two nights till Friday, Rin thought.
***************************************************************************************
Okay, it's late and I'm going to the city tomorrow so good night! Please R&R!
