On With the Story…
Sesshomaru woke in the morning with a sudden feeling of panic. He looked down do see his Rin. Tears had filled her eyes, and spilt gently over her lashes as she looked at him. He knew that she was memorizing everything about him like he was doing to her. The way she looked, the way she smelt, and the way she felt. He etched every single feature to memory. This would be the last time that either of them would look upon the other. He knew she was already weakening. He could feel her life force waning, and slowly slipping away from her.
A single tear slipped down her face and landed upon her lips as she uttered her last words. " Aishiteru. My lord, my love, my life, my Sesshoumaru." She closed her eyes. Feeling the pressure finally ease from her eyelids.
" Rin . . . not yet. One more minute. Koi, one more minute," Sesshoumaru whispered tenderly, knowing that Rin would surely listen to him, " I cannot let you go without hearing this. Please Rin, open your eyes. Fight it for just a little longer. Stay with me a little longer."
Never having disobeyed her lord in life, it seemed that she would not disobey him even in death. Her eyes fluttered open again as she fought the forces threatening to take her away. For him, she would hold on for a little longer. He smiled down at her as he stroked her cheek, keeping her focused on him. He had to- no, he needed to say this. He could not let her go without knowing- without understanding, what exactly she meant to him. No one else was here, what he told her now, she would take to the grave. There was no need to put on airs anymore.
" Good girl Rin. My Rin. My beautiful wife," he could see the surprise in her eyes at the title he had just given her. " Yes, Rin. You are, and forever will be my beautiful mate. You came into my life, when I least expected, and inexorably changed it. For better, or for worse, this Sesshoumaru did not know, until last night. This Sesshoumaru . . . I-I . . ." He cursed at himself mentally. His mate did not have much time left, and here he was stumbling over a few words, albeit a few important words. His mate needed to hear this. He needed to make sure that she di- that she leaved with no regrets. " Rin," He watched as she looked at him, her attention was focused intently on him. " Aishiteru. Boko no ai. There will never be another like you. This Sesshoumaru will forever keep your memory at heart Rin." He took her hand, and placed it over his heart. " You will always be here. This Sesshoumaru swears upon his Chichue's grave that he will never forget you. You won't occupy one corner of my heart, but all of it. There is no room for anyone else."
He watched as a few more tears leaked from her glassy eyes. She graced him with another brilliant smile that pulled at the strings of his heart. He saw her mouth ' good-bye', too weak to actually say it. He shook his head at that. " No, Rin. We will meet again. That I promise you." She nodded, and smiled one last time, before letting out her last breath. Her eyes closed of their own accord, as her soul fled her body.
Sesshoumaru felt the anguish and sadness seep from his heart to the rest of his body. He pulled Rin's body tightly against his, and poured all his sadness, and anger into one resounding howl, that echoed all through the night.
Queenofhearts 14: Review please!
