Chapter Three- Share!

Rin was let out of the hospital that day, she'd sprained her ankle pretty bad and was given crutches. She sat in the car, listening to the other brother, who she'd learned was Inuyasha, talk non-stop.

"...And they all seem to fucking hate Kikyou for some unknown damn reason!"

'Kikyou?' Rin thought 'Oh, yes, that time before'

--- Flashback---

'How do you know Kagura and Kikyou?'

'Help me, then I'll tell you! '

'Tell me first'

---End of Flashback---

The car pulled up and Izayoi helped Rin out of the car.

"This is it" Izayoi said, pointing at the large building in front of them. Rin's jaw dropped as she steadied herself on the crutches. A small man with a brown robe came over to her, opening his mouth. When he saw something behind her he pushed past her.

"Sesshoumaru-sama! Who is this girl?!" Rin could make out the man's voice, she turned, squinting to see what Sesshoumaru was signing.

'-Or I will kill you, Jaken'

'That's nice' thought Rin.

"Come on, Rin. I will take you to your room." Izayoi said softly, leading her indoors.

The inside of the house was even prettier than the outside was, decorated with plants and antiques, shiny wooden stairs leading to the above floor.

"It's upstairs," Izayoi said slowly, turning around "Sesshoumaru! Come here!"

Sesshoumaru appeared, glaring, in the doorway

'What?'

"Where are Inuyasha and your father?" Izayoi asked calmly

'Gone for Ramen' he replied, observing the situation he then signed 'Don't even ask'

"Sesshoumaru, Rin is in need of help. I can't carry her"

'I can see that'

Rin glared daggers at Sesshoumaru, who only smirked in reply. She leant her elbows on the crutches and signed, 'Since he is too much of a wuss, I will take the stairs myself'

'Who are you calling a wuss?'

Rin was already up three stairs, trying to balance on the banister. Izayoi glared at Sesshoumaru

"Do you want her to fall and hurt herself?" Izayoi snapped, Rin already knew the answer to THAT.

Rin was just getting onto the fourth step when Sesshoumaru grabbed her by the waist and slung her over his shoulder, taking his time on the stairs. When the reached the top he walked across the hall and dropped her in front of a room.

Izayoi reached the top of the stairs and steadied Rin, supporting her and helping her into the room.

'Izayoi-san?' Rin signed, sitting down on the bed.

"What is it, Rin?" Izayoi replied, sorting out some pillows.

'Is he always like that?'

Izayoi stopped momentarily and turned to look out the window, "Well, his father said he was quite a nice kid. Up until his mother died. He has been like that since I knew him, though" She turned and smiled at Rin "But you never know, maybe you could help each other out"

'Hmm, I guess.'

"My room is the second on the right from yours. Sesshoumaru's room is right next to yours and Inuyasha's is the third on the right" Izayoi said happily "Come get me if you need anything"

With that Izayoi left the room, Rin fell backwards onto the large bed.

'Wow, this is so warm. Not like the one's in the Children's Home '

Rin stood up, went over to a cupboard and opened it, only to find it was a bathroom.

'Wow! Just what I need, a good shower! '

---

Sesshoumaru sat on his bed, fuming silently. An impatient knock disturbed the silence and he got up, unlocking the door.

"Oi. Sesshoumaru, that girl's in the next room" Inuyasha laughed

'What do you want?' he signed, glaring at the intruder.

"To gloat! What else?"

Sesshoumaru shut the door in Inuyasha's face. What he needed, he decided, was a good shower.

(AN: ::evil laugh:: )

---

Izayoi had her nose buried in her favourite book, and was reading hurriedly. Caught up in the excitement, her eyes widened as she read.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGRRRHH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Izayoi's head snapped up at the two cries, one was definitely male and the other definitely female.

"Who the hell-?" she cried "RIN?" she flew out of the room and into Rin's, to reveal a very wet Rin with a towel around her body and a very red Sesshoumaru.

"Rin? Sesshoumaru? Was that you two?" Izayoi said in disbelief.

Rin was shaking in anger, her red face getting even redder, she held on to her towel with one hand and pointing a shaking finger at Sesshoumaru.

'Izayoi, you forgot to mention we would be sharing a bathroom!' signed Sesshoumaru, stressing on the 'bathroom'.

Izayoi's mouth formed a little 'o' and she turned away, grinning evilly "Did I?" (AN: hee, Izayoi and me have been plotting)

Rin stood up, her wet hair sticking her body, clutching her towel. She gestured for Sesshoumaru to leave. Izayoi turned back and smiled innocently.

'Not that I saw anything good.' signed Sesshoumaru, smirking and leaving through the bathroom.

Rin grabbed a bathrobe and pulled it on, 'Izayoi-san, shouldn't he already know about the bathroom?'

"Hmm? Oh , No, Rin, we only moved here recently and Sesshoumaru was away"

'I see...'

"Now, Rin, tell me everything!" Izayoi said excitedly

'Huh?'

---

Sesshoumaru entered his room and started frantically shaking his head, trying to rid himself of Rin's naked image.

'Curse it! It's no good!' he thought, hitting his head with his hand 'I will never live this down! Stupid girl! '

--Flashback---

Sesshoumaru shut the door in Inuyasha's face. What he needed, he decided, was a good shower.

He grabbed a towel and slung it over his shoulders. He swung open the bathroom door and began to take of his shirt.

'Man, it's steamy in here' he thought, as the steam cleared he could make out a figure in the shower. 'OH...MY...GOD.' he thought and tried to move but his legs were glued to the floor, the person continued to wash, she (for, he could tell, it was definitely a girl) turned around and they just stared at each other in a dawning horror. Sesshoumaru found that it was not his legs that were freed but his almost non-existent voice

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGRRRHH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

It was RIN! He turned away quickly. She grabbed the towel that was on his shoulders and hopped into her room, grabbing her crutches on the way out.

He waited a few seconds before he followed her, signing 'Look, I wasn't planning on-'

He couldn't continue because at that moment a pillow was chucked at his face. Rin was sitting on her bed, with HIS towel on and her face buried in her hands. Then IZAYOI had to interfere.

---End of Flashback---

But, back then, they'd both spoken, or shouted anyway. Sesshoumaru looked in the mirror and sweatdropped when he realised he was still beet red. He sighed and Inuyasha came parading in without knocking and started poking Sesshoumaru.

"Peeper! Peeper! Sesshoumaru is a peeper! Peepeeeer! Peeping tom!"

'I don't think the neighbours quite heard that' Sesshoumaru signed sarcastically

"No?" Inuyasha said running to the window "Tessiaga Sesshoumaru is a PEEPER! I repeat, Tessiaga Sesshoumaru is a PEEPER! Fear for your children! There is a PERVERT on the loose!"

Sesshoumaru jumped on his brother and they both started to fight maniacally.

---

Rin sorted her hair out in front of the bathroom mirror, putting it up in a long braid. She sighed and stared at her reflection, leaning on the sink.

'Back then, I screamed. I know that it's not the same as talking but...I never screamed when Naraku hit me. I wonder if...' she opened her mouth and tried to force a sound out.

"Eck" she said, her eyes widened and her face broke into a big smile. She leant back on the crutches, which were already starting to annoy her.

'Almost there' then she gasped as she saw a reflection in the mirror, it was Sesshoumaru. His white hair was messed up and his bottom lip was bleeding, but still he held an expression of pure triumph.

She whirled around 'Did you hear me trying to...?'

Sesshoumaru nodded honestly 'Yeah, I've been standing here for about five minutes'

Rin fiddled with her crutches so she could lean against the sink 'Can't stop spying on me, can you?'

Sesshoumaru glared and pushed past her and put a wet cloth to his mouth.

'What happened to you?' Rin asked, giving him a sideways look.

'Something much better than what happened to Inuyasha'

Sesshoumaru grabbed a brush and started to tame his hair as Rin watched him, leaning on the bathtub, with her arms folded.

'Do you get in fights with him all the time?'

Sesshoumaru dropped the brush so he could reply 'Only when he yells unpleasant things about me out the window.'

'It wouldn't have anything to do with the word 'Pervert' would it?' she signed with a huge sarcastic smile on.

He gave her a death glare, leaving the room.

'I suppose he's not that bad after all...' she thought before she could stop herself. 'No, he's still an asshole! An asshole! Ass-hole!'

"Rin?" a feminine voice reached her ears

Rin hobbled back into her room to see Izayoi on her bed.

"Dinner is ready, Rin" she said, heading out the door "Come on, trust me it's easy to get lost in this house!"

Rin followed Izayoi to the top of the stairs. Izayoi turned around, looking for one of the boys to carry Rin down. Inuyasha (who's hair was also messed up and had a big purple bruise on his face) was the first to go into the hall.

"Ah! Inuyasha, do me a favour, honey. Carry Rin downstairs" Izayoi said in a sweet voice that could turn nasty if Inuyasha didn't comply.

"Keh! Fine, fine" and he picked up Rin with quite a big effort.

'I guess he's not as strong as Sesshoumaru' Rin thought, and then she blushed at the thought

"Rin, you've gone bright red" Izayoi said curiously, Rin just smiled nervously.

Inuyasha carried Rin downstairs, nearly tripping twice with Izayoi carrying Rin's crutches and chatting excitedly.

When they reached the table Sesshoumaru and Inutaisho were already there.

"Ooooh! Ramen!" yelled Inuyasha, dropping Rin just as carelessly as Sesshoumaru had.

Izayoi seated Rin and they all started to eat, Inutaisho, Izayoi and Inuyasha talking and Rin and Sesshoumaru glaring at each other.

---

Sesshoumaru and Rin continued their staring match undisturbed for about 5 minutes, then Rin asked if she could be excused. Satisfied that he'd won, Sesshoumaru sat back in his chair. Inutaisho then broke out in laughter, after Inuyasha had mentioned the shower incident.

This was turning out to be one of the worst days of his life.
