Sesshoumaru's Thoughts

I glanced down at a young girl with dark hair and a bright face
Little Rin tells me that she had behaved well
And that Jaken was being mean
I glare at Jaken and he goes on about
Him never questioning me or the presence of Rin
Rin continues to look at me with bright eyes
She asks if she can go pick flowers
I grant it to her and I see her smile
Such innocence warms my cold heart
I follow her and watch her look bewildered
At the many choices of flowers
I smile to myself and keep my hand
Near my fighting blade just in case
I need to protect her from demons
I stand here thinking about the
Different reasons of why I have kept
Her here in my company and protection
I will never understand why I keep putting
My dignity and pride as a demon lord
Ahead of my emotions and reactions
It wouldn't hurt to smile, would it?
Rin smiles all the time and probably expects
Me to return her a smile
Maybe it won't be so bad
I could always do it for Rin
But for no one else otherwise
All in the feudal era will know
That I have a soft spot now
Forget my pride
I will smile for Rin
Someday
