I'm writing another Chappie, finally. Then again, like anyone cares. So continuing. Once again it's Out of Character. I cannot stress that enough.

I don't own Inu, and if I did, it would be a very scary world.

"Um…Rin?" Sesshomaru asked as she looked at him. In his heart, he knew he wanted to… Though, he knew that it was incredibly wrong. He looked at her gravely, as if both their very lives depended on this. He had grown fond of her throughout all the weeks they had spent together. He felt that they had even become closer in the past few days.

"Yes Sessy…?"Rin said as she gave him a serious look. She was very aware of the mistletoe, hoping he wouldn't notice. She knew that he was not like that. She knew that he saw the mistletoe that he had left.

"Should we?"

Rin was serious, even if she wanted it, she couldn't. No matter what she said to herself, or even to him, she knew that he was still going to be her teacher. Nothing was going to change that…… "Sesshomaru, I don't think that we should."

Sesshomaru, gave a smirk, "Should… You make it sound like you want to." For the first time, Sesshomaru saw her blush. He laughed inside. He was amazed that the confident Rin he knew was blushing.

"I didn't mean it like that…"

"I'm sure…" He continued, teasing her. Rin couldn't tell if he was moving closer or not. Her eyes weren't too accustomed to the dark. Sesshomaru, using the dim light of the stars, moved close.

"No seriously-"

She was shocked as he kissed her. She closed her eyes… It felt so right for both of them. Sesshomaru felt that he finally could love again… The ghosts of his pasts disappearing… Rin felt as if everything was in place... Like she finally felt that her life was worth it… Both of them knew that it was wrong, but neither of them cared… Love conquered all… It felt like an eternity before either of them broke away.

"Sesshomaru…"

"Say nothing Rin… I think I know who 'he' is."

He pulled her into a hug, and they sat there, drinking in each other's presence, as the last of the stars fell. When Rin fell asleep, Sesshomaru picked her up, and carried her to her room. He took one last look at her before he went to his.

The next day was no different. Each of them were still locked in the memory of the night before. Rin was happier, in Sesshomaru's eyes. He felt her happiness every time he was around her. He couldn't help but hug her every time he saw her. Maybe Maria was right. Love heals all.

He decided to take her to his favorite spot. He tapped Rin on the shoulder, "Hey Rin. I was wondering if you wanted to come with me somewhere."

She looked at Sesshomaru. He could see the innocence in her eyes, and laughed. She looked at him, and asked, "I'd love to go. But… Why are you laughing?"

He kissed her forehead, and said, "You're just so adorable."

She smiled at him as he walked up the stairs, "I'll be down in a minute."

Rin couldn't decide what to wear. She thought to herself, "Why am I so conscious about what I'm going to wear? I don't think he's going to care… Wait, no duh he's not going to care."

She smacked herself on the forehead, and quickly changed. She was so excited, she could hardly wait to see where he was going to take her. She finally felt like she was worth something in the world. She loved Sesshomaru all this time, and finally, she knew how he felt too.

Sesshomaru smiled when he saw Rin. He loved everything about her. The more he was with her, the more that he fell in love with her. He loved her innocence, the way she talked, just everything.

They held hands when they walked to his motorcycle. She sat behind him, and put her arms around him. She held him tightly, it was as if she let go, he would leave. Before starting the motorcycle, he looked back at her. And, as if he read her mind, said, "Rin… I promise… I won't ever leave you."

She smiled at him, and whispered, "Thank you…"

They rode for what seemed like hours. Rin was wondering why it was taking so long. Sesshomaru had a feeling that Rin was wondering why it was taking so long. He kicked up the speed and continued on with the ride. Rin held on to him tightly. For the first time, Sesshomaru actually felt that his heart beat faster.

Rin was half- asleep when she finally felt the car stop. She got off the motorcycle and followed Sesshomaru. He held her hand, and lead her to what looked like a look out point. She and Sesshomaru walked side- by- side to the edge.

She gasped. She looked at him, "Sesshomaru… It's beautiful."

Flame me for all I care. I like this story regardless of the OoCness and everything. Either way, you can review. I know it's short, and I'm sorry aobut that. It's worked that way for now. Mainly because... Nah.. I'll make you all wait.
