Title: Forever Together

By: Rin6

Disclaimer: I will never own Inuyasha nor do I want too, that's why they should come up with a show based on just Sesshomaru! Then I will own that!

Rin: The last week has been weird.

Yasha: Oh yeah weird and exciting. (Rolls her eyes in sarcasm) Let's count the many things that went wrong shall we?

Rin: No let's not, please.

Yasha: Um, we have the Internet crashing on us so we can't update nor can we do anything else that requires the Internet. Then you have your early birthday party and we need to pre-order the tickets but we can't do that either because you need to order it online or go to the movies and buy them early. Then we have the fact that it is way to hot outside for you to go anywhere. Do you want me to go on?

Rin: No thank you Yasha you've said enough.

Yasha: Well it's the damn truth, may I remind you.

Rin: On with the story! Many of you knew exactly what Inuyasha would do, good job!

Yasha; Not that it was hard Rin.

Rin: You be quiet, now here's the next chapter in Forever Together, enjoy!


Chapter 7: A New Life


Last time on Forever Together:

Kagome turned back to her own mate, her eyes pleading and full of re-newed hope. She might be able to save Rin after all. "Well Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha looked to his mate with wide eyes, and then he turned to his brother. He blinked and an emotion that Sesshomaru would never be able to pinpoint filled them

"I-."


"I-I will give some of my blood to Rin." Inuyasha said nodding. But he quickly turned to his brother a smirk on his lips, "But don't think I'm doing this for you Sesshomaru. I like the girl and so does my pups, I can't let her die now can I?"

"Inuyasha!" Kagome cried and flung her arms around her mate a huge smile on her lips. "Thank you!"

Sesshomaru growled lowly at his brother's comment but shook his head thinking. Rin was going to live and what's better is that she would be immortal and stay with him forever. "Kagome is there any risks?"

"Well there is a few, she could not accept the blood but I think she will since it's her only way to live. Then when she wakes there's the fact that she has no memories." Kagome said before clasping her hands over her mouth.

Sesshomaru narrowed his golden eyes, "Explain."

Kagome looked away too hurt to even look at Sesshomaru, "The poison Sesshomaru it reached her brain and-and wiped out her memories. The doctor in my time said there is a strong chance that she will regain those lost memories but it will take time and lots of patience. Sesshomaru I know the ways of demon mating. When Rin awakes as a demon she will feel the burn of the mark of you. For some mysterious reason she will feel drawn to you, and with her memories gone she wouldn't know why. This could be bad and good at the same time Sesshomaru; it all depends on how you act to Rin."

Sesshomaru absorbed the information Kagome spoke like a hungry sponge. Rin being around him was good and bad like Kagome said. If Sesshomaru went easy and slow, showing her things from her past that may restart her memories then yes that was good. But if Sesshomaru gave into temptation, and his demon blood that was bad.

"Sesshomaru I know what you're thinking. Demons feel the need to mate and be with each other directly after the marking. But in your case Rin isn't here, and you two still need to mate. When she returns to you, those instincts will also return, but Sesshomaru I'm serious you cannot give in because if you do you will ruin the chance of being with Rin, and possibly killing her of a broken heart." Kagome warned her voice low.

So many things could go wrong; Sesshomaru could lose the one thing he ever wanted for eternity. What's worse was that if he did make a wrong move it could and would most likely prove deadly. Sesshomaru being strong he might live with a broken heart, but Rin...No she couldn't. Her instinct to be near him but couldn't, would cause her pain and then when she regained her memories she would feel the true blow of everything. The pain of what she and he had done would kill her. It was a terrible way to die and Sesshomaru knew a few pairs of mates who died in this way.

His own father could have suffered the same fate, but he chose to take another mate. By doing so he lessened the pain of his first mate, Sesshomarus mother, with his second mate, Inuyashas mother. It was disgusting to Sesshomaru that he would take a second mate so soon after his mothers death but it truly made Sesshomaru sick when it was a human his father took. Silently from that day forward Sesshomaru vowed that he would only have one mate and would love her forever, even after death he would wait. Sesshomaru was prepared to do the same for Rin. When she died because she was human he would wait another 16 years for her reincarnation to find her way back to him and then they could be together again until she died once again. But now, no he would never have to wait.

"I understand Kagome and this Sesshomaru promises that he will do everything in his power to prevent that."

"I'm glad, now Inuyasha are you ready, Rin doesn't have that long." Kagome said her voice lighter again.

Inuyasha nodded and turned to his brother, "Look she'll be fine Sesshomaru. Before you know it she'll be here and smiling at you again."

Kagome smiled, "Meet you at the well Inuyasha, I'll be there soon."

Inuyasha nodded and disappeared into the forest night, leaving the demon Lord and the miko alone. Kagomes face faltered a little as she turned to Sesshomaru again. "Sesshomaru the only way that Rin can come back through the well is if she is part human, you know that right?"

"I know Kagome, she will be partially human. Are you making her a hanyou?" Sesshomaru asked.

"No, I will make sure she is enough human just to pass through the well. Believe me Sesshomaru everything will be okay." Kagome said reassuringly, before nodding and disappearing after Inuyasha.

"I hope you are correct Kagome." Sesshomaru whispered into the night.


There was no time to waste as Kagome and Inuyasha ran down the sterile hospital halls towards Rin's room. The doctors had been paid enough to keep their mouths shut about Inuyasha; but besides the money he himself had threatened them to keep quiet. Souta was standing beside Rin when they entered. With one look at Inuyasha, Kagome and the doctor he knew what was going on immediately.

"Are you sure this will work Kagome?" Souta asked leaning over to his sister as Inuyasha sat down ready to be hooked up.

"I'm more then sure Souta. Because it just has too, I have a feeling it will." Kagome assured watching the doctor puncture Inuyashas vein.

Slowly the process began; little by little Inuyashas blood entered Rin's almost dry veins. Everyone sat silently watching and waiting. After an hour Rin's face regained her color, and her lips turned red. But the effects of the demon blood didn't take place in and instant. Gradually Rin's hair turned lighter until finally becoming silver in some parts. Her nails grew longer and faintly strips of red grew on each side of her cheeks. Her ears through they did not grow pointy like Sesshomarus they did seem to be non human. The whole time of Rin's change her mark on her neck burned red.

Finally the changes stopped and Inuyasha was done. Rin had gone quite smoothly through the transfusion. She accepted Inuyashas blood and invited the changes that were to come. Inuyasha just needed some food and time to rest and he would be okay. To Kagome everything was okay. Rin was alive and would be awaking in a few hours hopefully; Inuyasha was tired so there wouldn't be his constant talking. It was just right at the moment, yet Kagome knew that there would be a tough road ahead for all of them as soon as Rin awoke.

"Inuyasha I was thinking maybe Rin should awake in her time with Sesshomaru." Kagome said thinking out loud. Inuyasha looked up and shrugged.

"It might be a good idea. I mean maybe seeing Sesshomaru will stir some memories."

"Yeah, so we should get her back there." Kagome said standing to move towards where Rin lie.

Inuyasha nodded and lifted Rin into his arms. The doctors had taken Rin off of her IV an hour ago so Kagome wasn't worried much. After telling Souta what they were doing, together they silently slid out of the hospital unnoticed. It wasn't long before they reached the well and jumping through.

"Kagome I can't carry her anymore." Inuyasha whispered. Kagome turned to look at her mate. She was surprised to see him on his knees and Rin lying on the ground. "You're still tired Inuyasha?"

"Yeah, do you think you could carry her?" Inuyasha asked raising his head.

"Sure, I will." Kagome reached down to Rin and easily lifted her into her arms. Slowly because of Inuyasha they made their way towards the village and where Sesshomaru waited. It would be a few hours until the sun rose and she herself and Inuyasha needed sleep. Soon the village came into view and there standing proud and tall was the Lord of the Western Lands.

"She's fine Sesshomaru!" Kagome called out to him. In a split second Sesshomaru was at her side and already lifting his mate from her arms. Inuyasha placed a protective hand around his mate's waist and watched his older brother.

Sesshomaru stared down in amazement at his mate. She was a youkai yet at the same time a little human. She had all of his markings because of the mark he gave her; stripes on both cheeks and arms, but yet there was no moon. But Sesshomaru knew the moon would come when they mated and completed the bonding ceremony. The crescent moon was a sign of royalty; only the Lord and Lady had the moon upon their heads. Her hair had changed, it now had silver streaks in them and already her claws were sharp and deadly like his.

"This Sesshomaru thanks you Kagome." Sesshomaru whispered still staring down at his mate.

"No need to thank me Sesshomaru, it was Inuyasha that really saved your mate." Kagome explained, smiling.

Sesshomaru raised his head to look at his younger brother. Golden eyes meet amber eyes, no words were spoken out loud but many were talked in that second. Looking back down at Rin Sesshomaru said, "While Inuyasha and you Kagome were back in your time, I was thinking. It would not be wise for me to take Rin back to my castle alone. She would have no friends there to help her through this, I mean like a female companion."

"Sesshomaru, Rin has never had a female companion at the castle." Kagome pointed out.

"That is true but she has always had you and your family. She thinks of you as her friends."

"Hold up! Are you saying you want us to come back with you?" Inuyasha exclaimed, surprised.

"Inuyasha, if that's the case I would love to go. On one condition." Kagome quickly said, leaving her mate speechless.

"What would that be?" Sesshomaru questioned.

"That we take our pups with us." Kagome replied.

"I would not deny you two to not see your pups, as long as they do not bother Rin." Sesshomaru agreed, nodding.

"They won't besides Rin loves them a lot. She once told me before all of this happened that she wanted pups of her own one day." Kagome said smiling at Sesshomaru.

"And what did you tell her?" Sesshomaru asked curious.

"I said I was sure that one day someone would sweep her off her feet and give her the world. She just smiled and continued playing with Kisha." Kagome shrugged.

"I understand. I do not wish to waste time here, so I will be returning to the castle, I expect you both there by noon, understand?" Sesshomaru said, the cloud he used for transportation already forming around his feet.

"Sure thing master." Inuyasha joked pretending to grovel. Kagome laughed and playfully smacked her mate, "Inuyasha! And yes Sesshomaru we will be there."

Sesshomaru nodded and disappeared into the night sky, leaving Kagome and Inuyasha alone. Inuyasha immediately wrapped his arms around his mate. "This means we get no time to ourselves at the castle huh?" He whispered his voice husky.

Kagome leaned back against her mate, enjoying the feeling of his breath on her neck. "I don't know. Maybe I can set aside some time for you."

Inuyashas hand wandered making Kagome lose her breath, "Inuyasha as much as I am-am enjoying this please we have to go."

"Of course, you agree that you owe me?" Inuyasha whispered.

"Yes I owe you." Kagome gave in.

"Deal." He kissed Kagome on her sweet spot behind her ear that made her jump in his arms. Pulling away they walked hand in hand down towards the village.


The wind whipped against Sesshomarus silver locks sending them flying behind him. Against the night background, Sesshomaru could see his castle. Few lights shone in the windows and noise was absent as he landed in the courtyard. Rin still slept as he entered the castle and servants crowded him. The only one Sesshomaru wished for was Jaken and the nasty toad came running at his master's call.

"Yes M'Lord?" Jaken sputtered.

"Have Rin's things brought into the room next to mine. And make it quick." Sesshomaru ordered.

As Jaken and the other servants prepared Rin's room, Sesshomaru took Rin into his room and gently laid her on his bed. She looked so perfect lying there in his bed, her bed. Sesshomaru came to a conclusion as he watched his mate sleep peacefully. As a human she was nothing to compare to the other humans, and as an almost youkai she battled all other female inuyoukai. Rin was just perfect as she was.

Sesshomaru lied down next to Rin and took her sleeping form into his arms. One hand caressed her back as the other ran it's way through her silky hair. Even lying here so close to her Sesshomaru had to fight back the urge to take her. So badly he wanted to feel the heat of her skin against his skin, her breath on his neck, her innocent screams filling his ears, it all drove him crazy just thinking of it.

A knock sounded behind Sesshomaru and Jakens annoying voice reached his ears, "M'Lord, Rin's room is ready."

Sesshomaru growled at how dense Jaken could be. Standing Sesshomaru made his way to the door, flinging it open he wasn't surprised to see a quavering Jaken. "Jaken you will not call Rin, Rin anymore. She is now Lady Rin. Understand?"

Jaken sputtered but dared not to speak, he only nodded and turned to disappear. Sesshomaru glared after his servant before closing the door behind him and walking back to Rin. A gentle smile graced his cold lips at the sight of her. She had grabbed one of his pillows in her sleep and now was cuddling it. It seemed that when she was unconscious she knew who she was. By grabbing Sesshomarus pillow that smelled of him Rin had shown that she wished for him to be there lying next to her.

Gathering Rin in his arms after releasing the pillow from her death like grip, he made his way through the door that connected his room to hers. Her room was just as magnificent as his; the bed was set against the same wall as his and the furniture was placed in the same general place that his was. The only difference in the two rooms was that Rin's bed sheets were a dark sky blue and Sesshomarus were a deep blood red. Carefully Sesshomaru set Rin upon her bed and pulled the covers over her small body. Then laying next to her he himself feel into a restless sleep.

Loud talking awoke Sesshomaru and at once he looked to Rin and was relieved to find her still asleep. Rising from the bed Sesshomaru left Rin's room and entered the hallway. Inuyasha was standing there yelling down at Jaken about how pathetic and weak he was while Kagome and two young pups stood off to the side watching with amusement.

"Inuyasha please restrain from killing my servant." Sesshomaru commanded, "That would be my job."

Inuyasha spun around and smirked, "Ah come on Sesshomaru, he's never stopped being stupid."

"Inuyasha..." Sesshomaru threatened, and Inuyasha only nodded before going back to glaring at the toad demon.

"Sesshomaru you have a wonderful castle here. If I may ask where is Rin?" Kagome asked holding onto her son's hand.

"She is currently sleeping in the room next to me. I have put her corridors next to mine, in case of emergency." Sesshomaru explained, eyeing the young boy.

"Why not have her in your room?" Inuyasha inquired.

"Because Inuyasha if you were in Rin's place do you think you would like to wake next to someone you don't know?" Kagome asked.

"Guess not." Inuyasha answered feeling stupid.

"Rin is not due to awake for a few more hours so you two will be showed to your rooms by Jaken and I expect to see you both in the dining hall in less then an hour. I am sure you still know the way Inuyasha." Sesshomaru said.

Inuyasha nodded and watched as Sesshomaru disappeared back into the room where he knew Rin now was. Jaken scuffed and started walking down the hall, leaving Kagome, Inuyasha and their kids to hurry after him.

"Um Jaken do you think we could get a room close to Rins?" Kagome asked.

"Lord Sesshomaru has given you and Inuyasha the room he sees fit." Jaken replied coldly.

"Watch your tone toad." Inuyasha threatened.

"Why you are not my master."

"I am royalty in this house, your former Lord's second son, and your now Lords brother. If I were you I would watch myself since I'm sure Sesshomaru wouldn't mind if I just got rid of you." Inuyasha growled back.

"Lord Sesshomaru told you not to kill me." Jaken retorted but his fear was getting the better of him, Inuyasha could tell.

"And you think Sesshomarus word will stop me? Father's word never stopped me when I was young Jaken. You do remember what I did when I was young don't you Jaken?" Inuyasha asked his voice low and deadly.

"Yes I do. Here is your room." Jaken said before turning and leaving quickly.

Inuyasha looked at the door for a moment before his lips cracked a cocky smile, "I'll be damned. That son of a –."

"Inuyasha!" Kagome exclaimed interrupting Inuyasha.

"Oh yeah sorry Kagome." Inuyasha apologized. "But really he just had to do this."

"Who did what Inuyasha?"

"Sesshomaru, this room he gave us is my old room when I was young." Inuyasha said turning to his mate.

"Really this is your old room here?" Kagome asked surprised.

"Yeah come on let's see how much as changed!" Inuyasha decided grabbing his mate's hand and dragging her and their pups into the room.


Sesshomaru sat at the head of the table in the dining room while waiting for his brother and his family. Servants were filling the table with plates of food already, and Jaken stood next to his Lord talking about something Sesshomaru could care less about. Suddenly the doors opened and in stepped Inuyasha and his mate; behind them walking their son and young daughter.

"Decided to join me Inuyasha?" Sesshomaru asked.

"Yeah I figured why not. And thanks for giving Kagome and I my old room." Inuyasha said sitting down and Kagome sat across from him. Hikaru grabbed the seat beside his father while Kagome sat Kisha down in the seat beside her.

"Sesshomaru I don't think you meet these two." Kagome said.

"I have but I don't actually know them. The boys Hikaru correct, the girl?" Sesshomaru responded.

"Yes Hikaru and this little angel here is Kisha." Kagome said reaching over to tickle her little daughter.

Sesshomaru had to stop himself from smiling at the scene but Inuyasha didn't hesitate to smile at his mate and daughter. Lunch went quietly with the random talk of the village and youkai roaming the lands.

"Hey Sesshomaru you still got that meadow in the garden for training?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yes I do."

"Good I think I'll take Hikaru out there after dinner, alright?" Inuyasha said looking to his mate and brother.

Sesshomaru nodded not caring and Kagome smiled at her mate giving her agreement.

"Awesome!" Hikaru exclaimed. "Can we go now dad?"

"Sure thing." Inuyasha said standing and walking over to his mate. He leaned down and placed a kiss on her lips and neck before kissing his giggling daughters head. As soon as father and son left the room Kagome moved to clean up her messy daughter.

"Kagome, how do you think Rin is going to act to all of this?" Sesshomaru asked, turning to look at her.

"I honestly don't know Sesshomaru, but I wish to be the one she awakes too." Kagome answered.

"Why?"

"Because it's a common fact that a woman will feel safe around another woman. No offense Sesshomaru but I don't think it should be you she awakes too. I will introduce you to her when I think the time is right." Kagome explained, stopping to meet his eyes.

Sesshomaru nodded, "I understand."

"That's good to hear, now the doctor did tell me that she didn't lose all of her memories but she did lose most of them. She could have lost all her memories from you until the attack. Meaning she might only remember her childhood which what I've heard was terrible. But there is also the fact that she might have lost bits and pieces. She might remember me and not you, or vice versa. We will just have to see the consequences of the poison when she awakes." Kagome said, finishing cleaning her daughter.

Sesshomaru sniffed the air and noticed that Rins scent was changing; she was awaking. "Kagome Rin is about to wake up."

Kagome nodded and quickly stood gathering her daughter in her arms. Sesshomaru lead the way back to the hall where Rin and his room were. He opened the door and Kagome walked inside. Rins heartbeat was quickening and her breathing was coming faster, the normal signs of someone waking up.

Kagome let Kisha down from her arms to roam around the room, before sitting down on the bed beside Rin. Sesshomaru took a seat by the window where Rin could not see him. Slowly Rin's eyes opened and Kagome gasped, they were a deep amber color almost like Inuyashas.

"Rin?" Kagome whispered as Rin lifted her eyes to see Kagome.

Seconds went by as Rin studied Kagomes face, "Rin do you remember me?"

Silence.

"Kagome?" Rin whispered, narrowing her eyes to study and look at her harder.

"Yes it's me Rin you do remember me?" Kagome asked excited.

"Vaguely."

"You know your names Rin right?" Kagome asked slowly. Rin was looking good so far.

"Sounds familiar Kagome. Where am I?" Rin asked her amber eyes darting around.

"Your in the Lord of the Westerns Lands palace. You're safe here." Kagome explained. She didn't want to bring in Sesshomaru just yet. Kisha grabbed a hold of Kagomes leg and she reached down to pick her up.

"Who's that?" Rin asked.

"Oh this little girl is Kisha my daughter. You use to love babysitting her all the time." Kagome explained, "I have-."

"No I can recall Kisha and I think your sons name is Hiaru?" Rin asked

"Close my sons name is Hikaru." Kagome smiled.

"Yeah that's the name." Rin remembered.

"So who's who?"

"Who's the Lord of the Western Lands?" Rin asked trying hard to remember.

Kagome lifted her eyes to look at Sesshomaru. But he was staring out the window. "His name is Sesshomaru. He saved you Rin, you've been living with him since you were a little girl."

Rin closed her eyes as a faint picture formed in her mind. Something large and silver, a cold yet at times gentle voice then two golden eyes that pierced her soul and entire being. These eyes were pure ice, but the longer Rin tried to focus on them the more warmer they became. It was like a battle trying to remember everything. She didn't know why she couldn't, why the memories were not coming.

Re-opening her eyes Rin looked at Kagome, "Kagome please tell me why I can't remember anything. When you said Sesshomaru I see something large and silver, a pair of strong cold golden eyes. What happened to me? Why can't I remember anything?"

Kagome reached forward and embraced the now crying Rin, "Rin you were attacked when you were a human by a snake youkai. It injected its poison into your blood stream. Rin you were dying and Sesshomaru saved you; he saved you when no one else could do a thing. But it wasn't enough; the poison had reached your brain and wiped out part of your memory. Rin do you believe me when I say that Sesshomaru would never hurt you?"

Rin cried harder into Kagomes chest, "I don't know! I feel so weird Kagome. Why did you say when I was human?"

"Rin the poison did more then wipe out your memory. It was slowly destroying your own blood. And as a human you could not fight off the poison. I had to give you youkai blood, which turned you into a youkai. You are still partially human but more youkai then anything else. Rin you must believe me when I say it was the only way to save you." Kagome explained rocking back and forth with Rin in her arms.

"I don't want to feel weird Kagome." Rin whispered.

"I know you don't but it will get better believe me. Accept who you are Rin." Kagome said gently.

"Why? How did Sesshomaru save me Kagome? Please tell me!" Rin pleaded, "When you or I say his name I feel drawn to him for some reason, even now! Why?"

Kagome looked away and at Sesshomaru who was now looking at them, "Rin he saved you by making you his mate." Kagome softly whispered. "He loves you Rin, and would never even dream of hurting you. As mates you two are bonded to each other, when not around the other you feel drawn to be by the others side. In your case Rin it's harder. You are in pain from not knowing who you are, and you wish for him to be there to hold you and tell you the truth. Yet at the same time you are afraid because you don't know who he is. If you two had completed the entire ceremony the urge to be next to him wouldn't be as strong but you never completed the final step in the ceremony."

Rin drank all of this in. Her mind was working faster then it had ever worked. Ceremony, drawn, bonded, all of what Kagome was saying sounded so familiar, so right but Rin couldn't place it. Thoughts, words, pictures, screamed in her mind begging Rin to remember. "I-I must see him Kagome...please..."

Kagome shook her head, "No Rin not yet, you must remember him better."

Rin shook her head and pushed herself away from Kagome, "Please Kagome I must see him!"

"Then your wish is granted." A strong familiar voice whispered behind Rin.

Rin spun around and widened her eyes. The man who stood there was the same person in her mind. He had the same silver hair, the stripes, and the fur on his shoulder, and he had the golden eyes. But the eyes weren't as cold as they were in her mind; they were warmer, and softer.

"Are you Sesshomaru?" Rin whispered.

"I am Rin." Sesshomaru moved closer to the bed but Rin backed up against the headboard.

"Please don't...." Rin cried.

"Rin I'm not going to hurt you, you know that." Sesshomaru said softly.

Rin shook her head, obviously confused. Too many memories were returning, some good but most of them bad. "Please I don't know what to do...I'm so scared..."

"Then let me comfort you Rin...you are my mate and when you're in pain I am in pain as well." Sesshomaru said taking another step forward, and this time Rin did not back up.

Slowly and meekly Rin nodded allowing Sesshomaru to climb onto the bed and sit beside her. Rin turned to meet his intense stare and smiled hopefully. Sesshomaru nodded and lightly smiled back. He reached up and brushed aside Rin's hair from her face.

"Sesshomaru I want to remember, please help to remember." Rin pleaded quietly.

"And I will, you just need to trust me first. Do you Rin?"

Rin nodded and slowly let herself fall into Sesshomarus strong chest. He wrapped his arms around her shaking body in comfort, and whispered words of love and hope into her ear.

Rin was in a field, for some reason she felt content and at home in the field. She was singing and making a crown out of flowers she found there. But suddenly the sky darkened and screams filled her ears. A growl made Rin turn around and she saw menacing red eyes in the shadows. Rin screamed and turned to run away, but the wolves were faster. The last thing she remembered was an intense pain in her back before everything went black. Then Rin saw a family, Kagome and Inuyashas, Hikaru was waving at her to come play while Kisha only bounced in her basket by Kagome. Rin smiled at them and hurried over but suddenly flames shot out from nowhere engulfing them in flames. Rin cried out to them but she received no response.

Sesshomaru appeared out of the flames looking strong and confident as always. His golden eyes flashed dangerously in the shadows of his face. Like lightning he moved and knocked Rin to the ground. He sat on top of her and smirked. His sword being merely inches from her neck made it difficult for Rin to breathe without cutting herself. He said something Rin could not hear but it made him smirk and strangely she smirked back. Then Rin pushed Sesshomaru off of her and he did nothing to say no. Suddenly there was dark narrow evil eyes staring at Rin; fangs appeared and Rin screamed into the darkness. Then it cut to Sesshomaru standing behind Rin his hand on hers while she gripped a sword. He moved her hand and said things in her ear.

Memories all collided in Rins head, returning from their sleep. She remembered a lot but she knew not everything and it would take time for those memories to return. But Rin had come to a conclusion by what she had gotten back. All though some of the memories with Sesshomaru were not pleasant ones, there were ones where he was kind and loving and didn't know it. Ones where Rin knew he wanted to smile but couldn't, ones where he was training Rin and she would always joke with him almost bringing out a smile or laugh.

"Rin are you ok?" Sesshomarus voice asked brining her out of her thoughts.

Rin was silent as she thought harder, but slowly she nodded into his chest. "Yes I think I am. I remember a lot Sesshomaru."

"Do you remember me Rin?" Sesshomaru asked carefully.

"Yes I remember you a lot, I remember Kagome and her family, and the training you gave me, the wolves. "Rin started to slow down as she got into more of the sadder things she remembered, "I remember the fire that killed my parents, and-and, the snake youkai Sesshomaru. I remember what he did, he almost killed me!"

"But he didn't Rin you are alive healthy, and regaining your memories." Sesshomaru whispered, holding Rin tighter.

Rin whispered an agreement and silence fell between them. "Sesshomaru am I really a youkai?"

"Not a full youkai but yes you are for the most part."

"I remember when you use to say that you would never take a human mate. Hearing that broke my heart you know." Rin confined.

"I do remember saying that, and looking back on it I realize that I didn't mean it." Sesshomaru said.

"But now that I am a youkai do you still wish for me?" Rin asked.

"I will always want you Rin whether you are human or youkai. You are mate and I made you my mate when you were a human." Sesshomaru replied.

"But you did that to get rid of the poison in my bloodstream I thought." Rin said looking up at him.

Golden eyes looked down into almost matching amber ones. His eyes held no secrets or lies as they stared down at her. "Rin at first that was going to be the reason but I realized that I loved you. As much as I tried to say I didn't I knew I did and I was only putting it off. I wish to be with you for eternity, and never let you go or let anyone else have you. You believe me don't you Rin?"

A smile cracked Rins lips, "Will you stop asking me that question Sesshomaru? I believe you to no end."

Sesshomaru smiled lightly and enjoyed the look she gave him when he did, so he decided that he would do it more. Suddenly he cursed himself when he felt that hot pressure build in his lower body again. He wanted Rin, and he wanted her badly. Sesshomaru groaned making Rin look up, "Sesshomaru are you okay?"

Sesshomaru nodded and leaned his head down upon Rins chest. Rin looked down at Sesshomaru in curiosity wondering what he was doing but she caught sight of a large bulge in his pants. Blush quickly covered Rin's face as she realized what was wrong with Sesshomaru.

"Ano, Sesshomaru will you be okay? Is there anything I can do to help you?" Rin asked, surprised at how she too was becoming aroused by what she saw.

Sesshomaru groaned again, "There is but I don't if you are ready for it, so I will be leaving and you and Kagome can talk. I will see at dinner tonight."

He made a move to stand from the bed but Rin quietly grabbed him making him fall back down next to her, "I am ready, but not here and not now. I will see at dinner yes Sesshomaru, and I will see you after dinner as well."

Sesshomaru studied Rin's face before nodding showing that he understood. "Until then my dear Rin."

He leaned in and carefully captured Rin's lips in his. Rin was so surprised at how quick he was but was more amazed at how gentle and sweet he was when he kissed her. Rin wanted more but knew of what she would be receiving later that night. Almost relunctly Sesshomaru parted with Rin and stood once again from the bed. Kagome came from behind Rin and embraced her, while Rin watched her Sesshomaru leave and close the door silently behind him.

"Kagome is he always that sweet?" Rin asked curious.

"Only with you he is; now that's what I call love hon." Kagome said smiling.

"I trust and believe in him Kagome, I know I do. My heart and soul tell me too." Rin said quietly.

"Then follow what they say Rin; you should always."

Rin turned around and Kagome came to sit down on the bed with Kisha in her arms, "Tell me more of Sesshomaru and everyone please."
