Chapter 5: a new lifestyle
Megan's POV
What an ass hole……………..burden my ass………………if he wants a burden then I'll show him a burden!
"Megan?" Rin's little hand tugged on my shirt and I was jolted back to reality.
"Yes Rin?"
"Are you mad? Has something upset you?" she asked.
I felt my cheeks flush.
"No, of course not Rin, why would you think that?" I put on a big fake smile.
She shrugged her shoulders, "You were staring at the back of Sesshomaru's head as if you wished to burn a hole through it! Rin was wondering if you two had a fight while walking together."
Well that sure made me swallow that smile.
This kid was smart.
"It's nothing to worry about Rin," I smiled at her, this time it was genuine.
Rin began to jump up and down smiling and laughing, pointing ahead of us.
Was she having a seizure or what?
"Look Megan look!" she ran ahead of Sesshomaru and continued to point, "the castle!"
I look passed her and my jaw dropped.
Wow.
Now that was a castle.
It wasn't like the castles I had seen on the internet. It was still made of stone, but it seemed as though more care and hard work was put into it. Each stone seemed to fit perfectly into its own spot. There was ivy covering the east wing, and climbed up one of the northern turrets. Even from a distance I could see a beautiful deep blue fabric curtaining the windows. Nestled in front of the castle was a small village where villagers hustled around like mice.
It was strange though, most castles had a large wall surrounding it. But this castle seemed as if nothing protected it at all.
It seemed so perfect. As if from a fairytale.
Sesshomaru's POV
I watched her from the corner of my eye as we entered the castle. She gazed at the rooms, and touched the drapery as if she had never seen anything like it before. Though perhaps she does not have things like this in her time.
"Megan," I called to her and she taken out of her trance, "follow me. Jaken, take Rin to her room, Megan will find her there later."
Jaken merely nodded and he and Rin left leaving me and the nervous girl alone.
"Come," I said and started down the east wing.
She followed in silence. Strange for her.
"The left corridor leads to the dinning hall, and to the right is a library and study," I pointed out to her as we went.
I stopped at a large handcrafted wooden door. I opened them and beckoned for her to follow.
Megan's POV
He led me into a room. It was beautiful. The walls were a pale yellow, though the furniture was covered in cloth as if no one had entered the room in years.
A chill went down my spine.
This room had belonged to someone important. I can feel it. I hope that I won't be staying here though, it gives me the creeps.
Sesshomaru stopped in front of a large closet and opened it.
He looked me over once and then pulled out a large box. He handed it to me.
Wow, a box…you shouldn't have?
"Open it," he instructed.
When I did I gasped.
It was a dress of some kind.
It was white silk with pale pink flowers and green leaves embroidered on it. It felt like a feather in my hands.
"Put it on, those clothes are not suitable if you are going to live in my household," he said and began to walk toward the door, "the rest of the clothes in that closet will be sent to your room later on. Follow me."
And then he was off again, and I was running to catch up with him.
"Wait Sesshomaru!" I said as I caught up with him, "I can't wear this I mean, its not mine, and, and, it's just so beautiful."
"You will wear it." his voice was cold.
Wow don't have to bite my head off…
"Who's was it?" I asked softly.
He paused and his pace slowed somewhat.
"My mother's," he said.
Before I could respond he opened a door to the right and led me in.
Wow
I say it again. Wow.
The walls were a soft blue color with dark blue drapes hanging from the windows that overlooked the small village. There was a canopy bed on one wall with dark blue sheets. There was also a mirror, closet, sitting area, and even an art easel.
"This is your room," he said, "Rin's room is directly across from you. Dress quickly, she will be expecting you."
And with that he left.
And then it hit me.
My room. New clothes. New life. I was stuck here. For how long? I don't know these people, or their customs. How the hell am I going to fit in?
I couldn't stand it.
I began to cry.
God I hate crying…
