Chapter 15
Recap…
"Why do YOU get to wear a shirt and I don't? That's NOT fair."
Sesshoumaru thought for a quick second, before coming up with something.
"You're right; this isn't fair, is it? Go on then, and take off my shirt."
Watching her eyes widen and her cheeks blush, Rin shook her head vigorously, and avoided his gaze.
Sesshoumaru took this opportunity to grin devilishly while she wasn't looking, and marveled at her current predicament.
"Okay, well I think it's unfair that you're in shorts."
Before she could react, Sesshoumaru was already unbuttoning and unzippering her shorts from underwater, with surprising skill.
Yanking the "offending garment" off, he threw the sopping wet material onto the side of the pool, leaving poor Rin in just her white undergarments…
Staring at him in stunned shock, she ripped open his shirt, and tore it off of him. Panting at the effort it took when the task was completed, she fiddled with her fingers in nervousness.
Moving closer still, Sesshoumaru gently caressed her upper arms and shoulders. Rin made a small noise at the back of her throat, which made him growl in response.
Sitting her on the side of the pool, he began to make little kisses along her collarbone, arms, and face, while coyly avoiding her lips.
By now, Rin's fingers were clawing his shoulders while he playfully tormented her. Moaning, she pulled his head up eagerly, and kissed him with deep passion. Surprised at her bold movement, he roamed his hands around her upper body as they kissed.
"Sesshou…" Rin moaned, pulling his head closer as her hands dug into his now-tangled locks.
His inner demon began to lose control, because even the demon inside wanted Rin for a life mate.
Mate, mate, MATE, his mind screamed, wanting to claim Rin right now, and dominate her until she exploded with pleasure.
Unknowingly, as she sat on the pool's ledge, Rin's legs wrapped around his waist, bringing him even closer to her. She panted in a higher pitched voice, wanting him more with each passing second, unable to control her overwhelming emotions.
Tearing her lips away, she expelled, "Ahhh, Sesshouuu!" begging the demon.
Dragging his lips away from her face, they slid down the column of her throat, and landed on her cleavage which was, by now, devastatingly delicious looking.
Suckling and nipping the sensitive area, Sesshoumaru growled when he could smell her arousal.
As he brought his forehead against hers, her chest heaved, and her body's warmth radiated with extreme intensity.
"Rin…" he ground out, doing his damn best to keep his own emotions under control. "This isn't a good idea right now…"
Mewling, she threw her arms around his shoulders in complaint, and didn't release the arousing lock her legs had around his hips. However, during her abrupt forwards movement, her pelvis was thrust against his, making things even harder for him.
Biting his lip when she wasn't watching, he let out a soft sigh, and continued to do so, even when her hands went in-between them to his flat stomach.
Tantalizingly, Rin ran her fingers around the tight muscles located there, making Sesshoumaru moan out in the process.
"I don't like the shorts you're wearing, Sesshou," Rin whispered seductively, and took them off the same way he did for her.
Satisfied that he was only in his red boxers now, she continued trailing her nimble fingers around his abs, slowly dipping lower as her antics continued.
Sliding back into the water, she leant down enough so she could lick where her fingers had just been. Rin loved the way her tongue glided over the slippery skin, and smiled when she could hear his sharp intakes of breath.
"Mmm…I have something for you to do…" turning so her back was against his chest, she gestured to her bra clasp, silently asking him to undo it.
At his insecurity, she rubbed herself against him in the water, moaning at feeling his arousal at her lower back.
Sesshoumaru groaned, knowing that this wasn't right. She wanted him very badly, as he did her, and if this was the right time or place, he'd definitely take her up on that offer.
However…he was genuinely concerned; the last thing he wanted was to take her innocence, claim her, and have her regret it afterwards. Sesshoumaru had to do something, and he had to do it right now, before he really couldn't handle himself anymore.
"Rin," he called abruptly and sternly, which made her pull back instantly in embarrassment.
Sesshoumaru's eyes went red as his inner demon was frighteningly close to overwhelming his controlled consciousness. He closed his eyes, willing the inner demon to calm, but the minute his eyes turned their regular gold, the deep, blood red bled through again.
Instead of being afraid, Rin stared into the unknown depths and put a gentle hand on his cheek. As she stroked his face, Sesshoumaru's inner demon surprisingly receded, and he was "normal" once more.
Dropping his head onto her shoulder, he kissed it softly before bringing his face back to hers.
"I don't want you to regret anything, or feel forced…I'll wait for you my whole life, if that's what it takes. I want this to be special, and something you'll cherish forever; I want you to tell me when you're ready, so we can go nice and slow, just like you've always wanted."
Smiling with happy tears in her eyes, she hugged him, reveling in their closeness.
God, what he'd said was absolutely true; in fact, she probably WOULD have regretted it if they didn't stop, despite the fact that she loved him with her whole heart…
I was such an idiot…but this just proves how much he cares, to hold off until I'm ready, no matter how long it takes…
Pulling away gently, she gave him one of her natural playful smiles, and began to swim to the other end of the pool.
"Let's talk about it later, 'kay?"
Smiling wickedly, Rin winked at him in the best way she could.
"In the mean time…betcha can't catch me!" she called, grinning as she saw him catching up to her from behind; it was a good thing a real bet wasn't on the line.

Miroku entered the "home store," gazing around at all the supplies and sections they had available.
A saleswoman approached him within minutes, asking him if he needed any help finding anything.
Whispering a request in her ear, she nodded easily, and guided him to the right section of the store.
After taking a good look around, then filling up the shopping cart to the brim with boxes, supplies and such, he made his way to the cash register.
The total cost for all the items was easily over $5,000, but it was obvious he didn't care.
"Will that be all?" the clerk asked, which made Miroku scan the purchases once more.
"No, I've forgotten something, I'll run and get it."
Making his way back to the "Painting and Supplies" section, he picked out a can of bright yellow pant labeled "Pure Sunshine", and a different can of paint labeled "Midnight Blue", and white primer before heading back.
"I needed these too," he said with a warm smile as the new supplies were added to the bill.
After everything had been loaded back into the cart, he carefully placed the packaged items into the back seat and trunk of his car before driving home.
Pulling out his cell phone, he called home, hoping Sango wouldn't pick up.
Listening to the answering machine, he noticed Sango had changed it, before leaving the house.
"Hey, I'm not home right now; in fact, I'm out doing a huge shopping spree due to our commercial's success! I won't be home for a while yet, because the spree should be around 4 to 5 hours, then go visit Kagome at home, and see how she's doing. I won't be home until late, perhaps around 10pm, but definitely not before."
Damn, she loved to talk, even when it was to herself…however, he tuned out his thoughts, and listened to the last of the message.
"If this is an urgent message, call my cell; if you can't get a hold of me, then please leave your name, phone number, and a message! Thanks for calling the Takahashi residence!" Beep.
Promptly hanging up, he nearly rejoiced. Surely he could get Sango to spend the night at Kagome's, and have her out of his hair tonight…
Smirking excitedly, he pulled up in front of their residence, and brought all the purchases inside.
Stealthily, he crept into the empty bedroom near their own, and slowly scattered the products and packages on the floor, one by one.
Shaking the can of primer, he opened it with the end of a screw driver, and got to work.
About an hour and a half later, the entire room had been primed white.
Okay, so now for the actual paint…
After painting the "Midnight Blue" on the walls once, he sorely realized that a second coat was going to be needed, pushing him back an hour. Instead of accomplishing this feat in an hour as planned, it would take more like two hours.
Wiping his brow, he chewed on his lower lip, determined to finish his task.
Shaking the "Pure Sunshine" can of paint, he pulled out a paint brush, and began drawing his works of art. At first, he'd skillfully painted small stars and half moons, but the more he painted, the more the ideas kept flowing into his mind.
After only forty five minutes of painting, he grinned at the night-room. The ceiling, which had also been painted blue, was covered with tiny yellow twinkling stars, and a bright yellow moon in the centre. Stars and miniature suns covered the walls all the way around the room, making it seem as though it were in a glow.
Sighing at the uncomfortable smell of paint, he sprayed the room with unscented air freshener, willing the stench to go away.
After all, he didn't want Sango to find out about this until the room was complete…

Shippo walked nervously to Kirara's desk, and took a deep breath.
It's now or never…
"Kirara?"
As she turned around, her sparkling brown eyes focused onto his, making Shippo even more nervous.
"Kirara, I…I was wondering…if…if you'd like to…"
A shrill ringing interrupted his invitation, and he frowned in response.
Kirara sighed, and picked up the phone, smiling widely upon hearing his voice.
"Hey! I haven't talked to you in forever! Yes, I love you lots too! I should come by and see you, gosh I miss you SO much!"
Shippo resisted the strong urge to whine as he mumbled a lame excuse to take his leave.
Walking briskly back to his office, he closed the door and locked it, leaning against the strong frame.
How could I be so stupid? A young, beautiful secretary such as Kirara MUST be in a relationship…
A surprising, but quiet knock on the door snapped him back to reality.
Reluctantly opening the door, he saw Kirara's shy eyes stare up at his own.
"I'm sorry about the phone call! I haven't talked to him in a long time; you know how it is with family, especially fathers! Anyway, did you need to ask me something…?"
Wait a minute…family…father…?
Seeing his shocked expression, she giggled sweetly behind her hand.
"My father, despite the fact that he shouldn't, works almost as much as I do, so we don't get to talk much. It's a great pleasure to get a call from him once in a while, you know?"
The gods are on my side! It was just her father! It was just her damn father!
After his silence and unrecognizable facial expression, Kirara began to worry.
"Dr. Shippo, are you alright…?"
Nodding his head slightly, he stared at her as a smile adorned his handsome face.
"I'm fine," he stated in his serious, but normal voice.
"Didn't you have something to ask me earlier…?" she repeated, waiting patiently.
Innocently, Kirara began to play with his shirt sleeve, twisting and turning it softly.
"If you aren't too busy, would you like to accompany me to dinner tonight, Kirara?"
"I'd love to!" she replied, hugging him tightly, and then blushing furiously.
The idiotic phone rang again, and Kirara threw him an apologetic smile over her shoulder as she raced to her desk.
An old woman that was waiting for her appointment had watched the entire scene play out before her carefully from where she sat, and resisted the urge to shiver.
"Is one of ya love birds gonna treat me or not, damnit?"

InuObsessed o.o – I know, wasn't that so bad of me, making it seem that Inuyasha hates Kagome? And to top it all off, I didn't even have any InuKag in this chapter!

mylovemiroku – Inuyasha is a dumbass…he's always too late or too slow in realizing his feelings for Kagome in fanfictions….but that's why we all love him! No matter how badly he screws up now, he'll make up for it later. Kagome heard the wrong thing…haha yeah, definitely drama. In fact, there'll be a TON more drama in the next chapter…wah, you need to get MSN so I can give you insiders on future chapters! (I already know what I want to write about, I just didn't write it down yet…) I have a quick question for you, so I need your advice. Should I up the rating to "M" for this story due to the sexual/lime content in this chapter? I really don't want to have my story deleted, or have my account taken away. Anyway…Please continue reading and reviewing in the future! Also, PLEASE CHECK OUT my new story, "Tear Drops" if you haven't already; if you like this story, I think you'd like that one, too!
Lady Storm – Well, the drama has to start somewhere, right? Hehe. (and yes, "me likes your pretty grammar.") I didn't know you're more into InuKag than SessRin…don't worry, there'll be InuKag fluff very, very soon, I promise. This IS an InuKag fic, after all; even though, I could perhaps even pass it off as a SessRin, if I had a little more of them in it…AHHH anyways… Please continue reading and reviewing in the future! Also, PLEASE CHECK OUT my new story, "Tear Drops" if you haven't already; if you like this story, I think you'd like that one, too!

Please continue reading and reviewing in the future! Also, PLEASE CHECK OUT my new story, "Tear Drops" if you haven't already; if you like this story, I think you'd like that one, too!
xXGintaGirlXx – I see you can't make up your mind, but that's okay! I'll be doing a variety of fluff and such in this story (it's not quite over yet), so don't worry too much about anything. I had a lime in this chapter…was it sufficient enough for you? If I had a full out lemon, I'd have to change the rating…and less people read mature fics as opposed to teen…I'm actually quite nervous, putting in a lime and not changing the rating…anyways… Please continue reading and reviewing in the future! Also, PLEASE CHECK OUT my new story, "Tear Drops" if you haven't already; if you like this story, I think you'd like that one, too!
litty2000215 – LMAO Yas no need to flip out; I'm just nervous/worried that you shouldn't read my sexy parts in this story.

kitsune-paws – Yes, Rin and Sesshy! How can anyone HATE that pairing; it's far to sweet and wonderful to be hated, in my opinion. Oh…well, sorry you didn't get your lemon, but there WAS a lime…isn't that almost as good? LMAO, you're funny. "Don't you dare kill her or make her heartbroken"; eh kitsune, if you haven't already noticed, she IS heart broken right now…? LOL!

Thanks ONCE AGAIN to EVERYONE that continues to review my stories; without you guys, I'd have no motivation, and perhaps would never finish this story.
Until chapter 16!
Sincerely,
