Chapter 7:Sesshomaru's True Smile
"Hey what did you sign up for Rin?" Sango ran up to her with curiosity in her voice.
"Hm...oh...I signed up for the 50 and 400 meter dash and the long jump." Rin replied.
"Really! Wow. Hey Rin can I race you in the 50 meter dash." Kouga smirked.
"Thats not fair though kouga! Your a demon! You can run faster then humans!" Aya protested. But Rin told her not to worry.
"So...what did you guys sign up for?" Rin asked.
"Relay, high jump, and shot-put." Aya replied.
"Relay, 50 meter and long jump." Sango said.
"Relay, Shot-put, and highjump." Kagome said (Kagome, Sango, and Aya are one team for the relay.)
"I chose 50 and 400 meter dash and the high jump!" Inuyasha said with pride.
"I got Relay, shot-put, and 50 meter." Miroku said staring at Inuyasha who was still looking like he was ready to fight a war.
" I chose the same things as Inuyasha." Kouga said thinking it was a waist of time if he just told them everything he was going to do when he could have just said that he had the same as Inuyasha. Every one stared at Sesshomaru after not hearing what he had.
"What did you choose Sesshomaru?" They all asked impatiently.
"I chose the same things as Rin." He said flatly. Everyone stared at him then Rin them back at him. Rin blushed slightly. 'Great! Now I got to make sure I dont mess up and embarrass myself! Especially infront of Sesshomaru...wait a minute...maybe if I watch him closely I'll be able to see what he can do...then I can tell Naraku more about Sesshomaru!' Rin was proud that she was going to be able to please Naraku with her knowlegde of Sesshomaru...but that proud feeling she had quickly faded, 'But... Sesshomaru's turned out to be such a great friend of mine...' Rin then snapped back to reality when she herd her friends calling her name.
"Hey Rin! C'mon! We gotta get to the events! They're 'bout to start!" Inuyasha yelled anxciously. So they all went to thier stations where they were going to do thier events.
Inside the girls locker room...
"Hurry up! Or we'll miss Rin on the long jump!" Kagura yelled with anger. All of her pose then went outside and to where they were going to go.
2 hours later when everyone was almost done with thier events...
"Sesshy-dearest! Where are you!" Kagura yelled looking around the field...then she spotted him...but she was getting angry at who she saw with him. ' What is he doing with Rin! He's not supposed to be anywhere near her!...This will complicate things a little..' And Kagura ran up to him and pretended to fall down in front of him..."Oh Sesshy-poo! My ankel hurts so badly! Can you carry me to the teachers please..." Kagura fluttered her eye lashes.
" Why should I carry you when you can clearly just drag yourself over to them." Sesshomaru said with a cold grin. " And do call me such a name ever aagain. Kagura frowned. Rin giggled.
"Oh crap! C'mon Sess. We got to get to the long jump before its too late!" Rin took his hand and pulled him towards the long jump in quite a rush. The she let go once she relized that she was holding his hand. She blushed slightly...but Sesshomaru didnt notice, he was thinking about somthing.
'Hm...Kagura and her pose havnt done anything to Rin yet...could they be thinking to get her on the long jump?...I'll just have to keep an eye on her...' Sesshomaru thought and he and Rin went to the long jump station.
'That little bitch isnt getting away that easily...' Kagura whipped out her fan...then gave a signal to her pose to get everything ready...
"Ok, Rin you ready?" The teacher asked, Rin nodded getting ready to sprint to a jump." On your mark, get set, g-"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! OOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!" The teacher looked away immediatly to see who was yelling and cut him off. It seemed to be Namine and she was on the ground...and she wasnt looking so good...everyone turned and saw that the teachers were running up to her. While this was happening Kana took the dog poop and ran up to the sand pit and dumped everything in various place and threw sand on top of it so it wouldnt stuck out. Kana then ran back to her station. Sesshomaru then caught a disgusting scent...and was about to turn around to find where it was coming from when Kagura poped out of nowhere in front of him.
"Hey there, Sesshy- Dearest. Come on, I think the teachers might need your strenghth to carry Namine to the health room.." Kagura said innocently but she grabbed his arm roughly and pulled him towards the teachers who were by Namine.
"Ok, Ok! Everyone go back to your stations! Everything will be alright! We'll take care of this...all of you continue what your doing!" The teachers yelled as the nurse came to look at Namine and the teachers went back to thier classes.
"They dont need my help. Now let go of me!" Sesshomaru snapped coldly as he yanked his arm out of Kaguras grasp. He was still able to smell that disgusting scent! But where was it coming from? Sesshomaru turned his head towards different areas and sniffed the air to see where it was coming...and he soon relized it was coming from the long jump area! The sand pit to be exact! He glanced at Kagura who had a smirk on her face and she was looking at the long jump area where Rin was getting ready to sprint.
"You bitch!" Sesshomaru yelled at Kagura, and her eyes widened, but Sesshomaru didnt see..he was running towards the sandpit. Rin was already running at her full speed, and she was able to run very fast even though she was a human...Rin then jumped into the air...and she caught the smell of something gross...she looked down at the sandpit and saw big blobs of brown stuff covered with sand...Rin closed her eyes knowing that this was going to seriously ruin her shoes and cover her in whatever was in there. But shenever hit the ground...
Rin opened her eyes and looked up...She then blushed like crazy..Sesshomaru was holding herbridal style and he was standing right next to the sand pit...he had caught her just in time..."Sesshomaru...?" Rin started but then looked at the sandpit in confusion.
Sesshomaru saw this and then blew some of the sand out of the pit revieling the dog poop that she almost fell into. "EEEWW!" Rin screamed and without knowing wrapped her arms around Sesshomaru's neck and pulled herself into him. "THAT'S DISGUSTING! WHO THE HELL WOULD PUT DOG POOP IN THE SAND PIT!" Rin yelled with fury, still not relizing that she had her arms around Sesshomaru. He was blushing a little bit because of this but stopped when he saw Kagura stomping up to them with glowing red eyes filled with anger...Rin saw this too and immidiatly knew that she did it.
"LET GO OF MY SESSHOMARU YOU FUCKING BITCH!" Kagura was steaming...she whipped out her fan. Rin then jumped oput of Sesshomaru's arms and glared at Kagura. Butshe felt some kind of pain in her stomach and her head...andeverything was starting to go black...but she stood tall and glared at Kagura withhatred. Kagura swiped her fan andsentwind bladed towards Rin, but she quickly dogded them using all her streghth.
'Why am I...feeling...so...w...eak..' Rin couldnttake inanymore...then all of a sudden she fell. She fainted. Kagura smirked. Thenshe was about to swipe her fan once more to finish her off when Sesshomaru stepped between her andRin. Heformed a low,cold, and thretening growlin his throat. His eyes were red and they clearly were saying back off. Kagura was feurious now! Why the hell was Sesshomaru pretecting her! Kagura then backed down and dropped her fan, only to be grabed by the wrist by the teachers and draged to the office. Sesshomaru then looked back at Rin who was still unconsious. The whole gang was trying to get her to wake up.
"You dont think shes..." Kagome started but couldnt bring herself to finish the sentence. All the girls started panicking.
"No...shes junst unconsious...I guess the heat got to her...so shes gona be okay. I can still hear her heart beat." Inuyasha informed them. The girls let out a sigh of relief.
"Well, we should get her to her dorm! She needs rest!" Sango said. Everyone nodded. And Sesshomaru picked her up bridal-style,and carried her to her dorm. Kagome took out her spare key and opened the door so Sesshomaru could place Rin on her bed to let her rest. They then all walked out of her room, closing the door quietly, as Rin was asleep.
Rin woke up feeling better then ever! She looked around to see where she was and figured out she was in her dorm. 'What happened! How'd I get here! Where's that bitch Kagura!' Rin wanted to beat something up now...and at the top of her list was Kagura...but she figured it would be best to leave her alone for awhile or else she'll try to get her back again. Rin sighed then changed her clothes and freshened upa bit and walked out her door only to be greeted by hugs from Kagome,Sango, and Aya.
"RIN YOUR ALRIGHT! We were so worried about you!" Rin kept hearing this from them.
"Of course I'm alright! Why wouldnt I be?" Rin asked with curiosity. The girls then told her how she fainted and how Kagura almost finished her off but Sesshomaru stepped in and saved her, then they told her how he carried her, BRIDAL SYLE, (they made surethat she herd that)Rin blushed when they told her all this andthat he was worried sick about her.
"How long was I out?" Rin asked amazed of all this and wondering that if everyone was so worried about her then she must have been out for more then 2 days!
"Oh about 3 hours." They answered flatly. Rin did an anime fall.
"I WAS ONLY OUT FOR 3 HOURS AND YOU WERE WORRYING ABOUT ME AS IF I WAS OUT FOR 3 DAYS!" Rin yelled confused that they were worried and angry at them for making her think she was out for a REALLY long time.
"Of course we were Rin! You're our friend.." Kagome said in a gentle voice...Rin felt ashamed for yelling at them...she mentally smacked herself on the head...'Of course they were worried about me! I mean thats what friends do right? They worry about one another...but..how would I know...I've never had any frien-'
"Rin are you ok? You seem to have spaced out..." Sango asked with a worried face. Rin snapped back to reality. Still ashamed of herself.
"What if her spacing out shows that shes not feeling well!" Aya asked/yelled in worry.
"No! No...its ok...I'm fine really." Rin said in a gentle but serious voice. She gave them a 'its ok' smile and they smiled back.
"Oh, I see your awake. We all were really worried about you. The heat must have gotten to you." Said a voice coming thier way. The girls looked to see who it was and saw Sesshomaru walking towards them with a bag in his arms. Kagome,Sango, and Aya giggled.
"Well we better get going! Hey Rin, we're all going to hang out at Inuyasha's and Sesshomaru dorm in a lil' while. If your up to it you can come with! Well see ya!" Kagome said and she and the other girls waved as they ran towards the doors that ledoutside. Rin started to blush now that she was alone with Sesshomaru...she knew they did that on purpose. There was an akward silence and it was starting to creep Rin out.
"Um..I got you these..." Sesshomaru handed her the paper bag that was in his arms. Rin blushed even more when she took it in her arms and opened it. She was confused a little when she saw that therewere a few bottles of Fruit-2-O. She pulled one out and looked at it...them back at Sesshomaru with a confused look.
Sesshomaru chuckled. "Well, I thought that since the heat got to you maybe you would need lots of water so I got you the best flavors of Fruit-2-O." He said feeling stupid that he got her such a stupidthing. But to his surprise she smiled at him.
"Thank you...for this...and for worrying about me...Kagome told me that you were worried sick about me..." Rin gave him a gentle smile.
"No problem. Your my friend. Thats what friends do, they worryabout one anotherand stick by eachothers side. No matter what." He gave Rin a smile. Rin saw this smile and started blushing like crazy. 'That smile...I've never smile...itsso...gentle...'
Sesshomaru saw this and lughed a little. "You know...you really do blush alot...not to mention easily." He said to her still smiling. "Well, I better get going to my dorm and clean up everything there before everyone gets there to mess it up. You can come to Rin...but if you dont feel up to it then you shouldnt push yourself to go." He then turned around and headed out the doors. Rin was still blushing because of that smile of his.
' It feels as though...I've just seen his true smile...his real smile' Rin thought, still blushing, but then she felt ashamed of herself again as she remembered what he had said to her. "Your my friend. Thats what friends do, they worry about one another and stick by eachohters side. No matter what,"
Rin felt a pain in her heart. 'Will you still think that,Sesshomaru, when you find out the truth...will you still worry about me and stick by my side...'

But everyone has to share a room with someone. And relationships change up in this romantic resort...
Oh and before I forget, I've been getting some emails saying that my chapters are short. Is that true? I mean, I know they arent LONG but its not like they're short right? But if people do think my chapters are short then I guess I'm doing it because I want there to be LOTS of chapters! I've been thinking and I've decided to try to go for more then 14 chapters. Well thats it for now! Review please! (or email)
