Author's Notes: Wow. I never expected so many review for one chapter. Thanks you guys. Well anyways. Yup. Another short and pointless chapter. But this is strictly Rin and Sesshomaru. I was bored one day in class and the idea just came to my head. So this is just a little something. Oh and I forget to mention Inuyasha in this chapter. Just pretend he's out. The location is for you to decide.

"speaking"

'thoughts'

Kagome's Diary or song lyrics

(my notes)

Disclaimer: I wish that I owned Inuyasha. But truth is, all I own is my sleeping cat, Monty.

Dear Diary,

I have decided to give Inuyasha a chance. But a small one. This doesn't mean that I like him. But my mom just wants us to be friends, even though she's never met him. But enough of this topic. Sango and I went shopping for some new clothes. We invited Rin, but she said she was busy. I wonder why? I'm guessing it's because of Sesshomaru. But I could be wrong. Anyway, it's late. And Sango and Rin wanted to talk to me about something on MSN tomorrow morning. At 8:30 in the morning. I doubt those two have ever heard of sleeping in.

Chapter 5

False Assumption

Sesshomaru was working on his essay for language class. It was some stupid assignment on Japanese philosophy or something. Anyhow, the point is, it was boring. And if that wasn't enough, that slut Sarah kept calling him. Eventually, he just blocked her calls. It didn't help much when she started to call from a payphone.

Yuki, his stepmother, called from outside his closed door, "Sesshomaru, we're having guests for dinner."

He replied a minute later, "So?"

"I just wanted you to know." She left him.

'Wonder who it is this time. Probably one of dad's business partners. They always seem to have snobbish daughters. Oh why me?'

The doorbell rang half an hour later. Sure enough, it was one of Inuyashito's business partners. Sesshomaru sat in the main den, where he always was before dinner. His father and his guest were in deep conversation. His stepmother and the other woman were also chatting away. He caught one of their phrases. "…then my daughter's the same age as your son. What a coincidence." At the doorway, the girl stood. Sesshomaru stiffened, at the door, stood Sarah.

'Please tell me I'm dreaming. I can not stand this bitch. No way in hell.'

As if reading his son's mind, Inuyashito came over and whispered into his ear, "for one night, just bear with her.'

After dinner, Sarah had insisted on a tour of the house. Sesshomaru objected, but was forced by his father. "It sure is nice having time alone together, isn't it Sesshy?" He was trying his best to avoid her, hoping she could take a hint. Unfortunately, she couldn't. "I haven't seen upstairs yet, honey. Show me." Sesshomaru ignored her, but his father elbowed him in the arm. Sesshomaru growled and went up the staircase. "Which one is your room?" she asked excitedly.

He pointed, "But don't go…" It was a bit late. "inside," he finished as he tried to get the girl out of his room. "And stay out you slutty (doubt that's a word) bitch." Sesshomaru slammed his door. 'Finally, I'm rid of her.'

It couldn't have been more than a few minutes later until she came back. "I thought I told you to stay out. Do you not understand o-u-t spells out! Out, sortir, auto, fuera, sicco, utenfor, nje Can I say it in any other language? " . (I'm sorry if I said any of those words wrong. Tee Hee, I used a dictionary.)

She ignored him. "Come now, Sesshy, doesn't it feel good to be in a private room with the girl you love?" (AN:/ Okay she is getting weird now and it's starting to scary me a little. She reminds me of a drunk Kagome. *_~)

"Bitch, get it through your thick head. I don't love you, in fact, I don't like you. I positively hate you."

Sarah didn't want to listen, "Fine, if you won't do anything, I will." She forced all her weight onto him. Causing Sesshomaru to fall over. Sarah on top. (AN:/ I'm having a major déja vu from chapter 3 right now)

"Get off," he demanded. But she didn't listen. She moved her head slightly closer by each passing second. She stopped when a noise at the doorway.

Rin was standing there, watching them, and totally getting the wrong impression of Sesshomaru. He threw Sarah aside. "Rin…it's not what you think." She shook her head. She was not crying, or speaking just a nothingness face (does that make any sense whatsoever?). The twinkle in her eyes were gone, it was empty. She turned and ran down the hall. A tear escaped her eye. But she wasn't about to cry in front of Sesshomaru.

"Oh, forget her Sesshy, you have me." Sarah smiled.

"Bitch, you made my girlfriend hate me." He ran in the direction Rin left. "Your girlfriend?" Sarah sighed in disappointment.

~At Rin's House~

Her head was buried in a bunch of pillows. She had been crying since she left Sesshomaru's house. 'Damnit all. How could I have believed that he wouldn't cheat on me? He is a relative to Inuyasha after all. Why was I so stupid? Stupid, stupid, stupid Rin. Why do I even try? But I…I…never thought…he would be with Sarah. Never…'

She stopped crying and stared at the mirror. Her tears stained her cheeks. She wiped them off. 'Sesshomaru would never want to see me like this. What would he think of me?' She stared at he ceiling and waited. For what? She didn't know. Anything to keep her mind off what happened.

It was then her mother called from the kitchen, "Rin, your friend's here to see you."

She found this weird; Kagome was shopping with Sango. But she really needed a girl-to-girl talk.

She walked to the front door and opened it. "Hello?" There was no one outside. "Kagome, this isn't funny. Come on." Still no one answered. Rin walked over to the weeping willow tree. Its long vines swung in the wind. It reminded her of Sesshomaru, always calm and peaceful…except when it came to Inuyasha. She sat at the base and closed her eyes. The wind blew against her face and something landed on her lap. It was a flower, a water lily to be exact. But there was no water here. Whoever was here, they were up in the willow tree.

She climbed its many branches, looking for the person. The leaves were so thick, she could not see anyone. Near the top, she stopped and sat propped up against the tree.

She closed her eyes when she heard, "It's not what you think." Rin almost fell out of the tree. "It was that damn bitch, Sarah." They were both quiet.

"Um, is this lily yours?" she held out the white flower.

"Mmm hum, I was doing an experiment." He took it from her hand. He jumped down off the tree and landed gracefully on the ground. They were silent.

"Rin," Sesshomaru didn't look up.

"What?" she hung upside-down from a branch. It cracked and then snapped. She waited to hit the ground, but never did. She opened her eyes to see Sesshomaru staring at her.

"You okay?" he looked concerned.

"Yeah…now, what did you want to ask me?"

"Rin, can you ever forgive me? I know it must be hard for you. But you are a kind person, I admire that. So would you…give me one more chance?" he looked away from her, obviously embarrassed.

She smiled. He may be the toughest guy around, but he's also the shyest. "Sure. But no more fluff between you and Sarah."

He set her down on his lap, "I can live with that." He put the lily in her hair. "Looks good on you." Their eyes locked.

"Thanks," she smiled, giving him a small peck on the cheek. He turned a light shade of red. He was not used to that. He held her against his chest. She fell asleep listening to his heartbeat.

"I'm glad you forgave me." He whispered, petting her head. The sun began to set and the crescent moon rose.
