Want Me
By: RoxyBunny
(I do not own any of the InuYasha characters, nor will I ever… sadly…)
Summary:
Rin, a growing woman, has mixed feelings towards her guardian, Sesshomaru. Will she keep it a secret for him, or show her true feelings? Only time can tell…
Chapter Two: Kiss Me
He began to lean a little more towards me… I wasn't prepared for what happened next…
Sesshomaru rested his head in the crook of my neck. I lay lifeless in his arms, him cradling me as he used to when I was just a girl. I wasn't sure how I should approach this situation. Here was the man I knew I was supposed to be with for the rest of my life, again, treating me like a child. I really didn't know his deal. I wasn't a little girl anymore!
"Rin…" Sesshomaru murmured.
"Hmm?" I asked back.
"You're my girl," came his voice muffled in my neck, "I don't want anyone to ever hurt you, you're my little girl…"
Okay, so what was that supposed to mean? He thought of me as a daughter figure or what, I'm not a little girl? Some men could be so confusing sometimes. I leaned back so that I was looking my look face to face. The way I was feeling, confused, expressed itself on his face. Sesshomaru looked with great concern at me, his amber eyes full of emotion.
I couldn't take it anymore. I quickly leaned in to capture Sesshomaru's lips with my own. I was shocked when he returned my kiss. The feeling of his soft lips against mine was amazing. I could feel his tongue trying to find access to my mouth. I gladly opened my mouth a slight bit and his tongue found mine. I massaged his tongue with my own as I began to take his robes off.
Just as quickly as it started, it ended. Sesshomaru froze up on the spot. He quickly, but gently pushed me off him onto the ground. I stared at him as he stood up, turned around, and started making his way back to camp; all the while he was avoiding my gaze.
What did that mean? Was he not into me? I could feel the sexual tension between us, I was sure he could feel it as well! I stared down at my hands placed on my thighs face up. What had I done to make him react so suddenly? Sesshomaru was so complicated and confusing sometimes.
With that last thought sticking in my head I stood and started making my way back to camp. As I approached our tents I noticed that Sesshomaru was already in his tent, probably fast asleep… or at least acting like he was so he could ignore me.
I made my way to my tent after saying goodnight to Jaken and the few soldiers from Sesshomaru's army that he decided to bring along for protection. I fastened the ties from inside and lay down on my bedding. The last thing I remember before falling into a deep sleep was thinking about Sesshomaru.
"Rin…" came Jaken's voice from outside my tent, "Lady Rin, wake up… we are to leave camp within the hour."
I yawned and stretched my arms above my head as I attempted to wake up. God, what hour was it? I took a peek out of my tent and saw that it was still slightly dark out; the sun was just rising. Surely they would wait until the sun was visible! I was definitely not a morning person; then again it didn't help much staying up all night thinking of Sesshomaru. I stood up and changed my apparel. As I left the tent a couple of Sesshomaru's soldiers began to take my tent down as quickly as possible so we could get on our way.
Sesshomaru was sitting by the morning fire. Jaken was reading a letter to him, obviously it must have been from InuYasha, Sesshomaru's brother; you could tell by the look of disgust plastered on my lords face. God knew Sesshomaru loved his brother, but even I knew InuYasha could be a complete ignorant fool. He was lacking in the common sense department.
"Morning…" I almost whispered as I approached the two of them.
Jaken looked up at me and smiled, but Sesshomaru's body tensed at the sound of my voice. I walked around the fire and took a seat across from Sesshomaru. He never once looked up at me. "Good morning… Rin…" was all he said. Sesshomaru got up quickly, "I'd like to be on hour way soon, very soon in fact." With that he turned and walked off into the forest, probably to think or whatever, he told me once that's what he always did when he stormed off. Something in his brother's letter must have upset him.
I stood up a few seconds later and started walking in the direction that Sesshomaru had just gone. Surely he would want to talk about something if it was bothering him. He always talked to me about everything. We've shared so much with one another the past thirteen years; we were like best friends. Maybe that's all he would ever feel for me, best friend status, not exactly what I always dreamed of, but I guess I would have to settle if nothing more could be.
As I approached the creek I noticed Sesshomaru sitting by it. I walked up and kneeled down on his right while placing my left hand on his right shoulder. I glanced over at him; he looked as if he had been crying. That couldn't be though, my lord never cried, it just wasn't his way, I had never seen him cry, he was always the strong one between the both of us.
I brushed some hanging hair behind his ear so I could get a better view of his profile. No, he hadn't been crying, he was frowning. He was probably angry, again with his brother. "Something the matter?" I asked Sesshomaru.
Still frowning he turned his head toward me, "The bitch is pregnant," he stated bluntly.
A little shocked by the way he said his statement and a little confused I just said, "Hmm?"
"Kagome, the bitch. My brother's mate you know? Whatever you want to know her as, she's pregnant," Sesshomaru stated a little more in depth this time.
"Oh…" was all I could respond. Personally I thought it was a good thing. I mean, InuYasha and Kagome were totally in love, you could tell. Sure they always had their little arguments, and I must say they were quite entertaining to watch, but they were in love. "Isn't it a good thing?" I questioned my lord and regretted it as soon as it came out of my mouth.
"What!" he looked at me appalled. "Don't you understand what this means?" I shook my head in response. "It means that their brat is next heir to the Western lands. I don't have any heirs of my own so it's only natural that the second son of the Western land produce offspring to become the next rulers."
I looked at Sesshomaru; I studied his face intently. I wasn't sure if I should have said what I said next, but it just had to come out, "Why not take a mate yourself then? There are many women that desire you…"
"…And none that I desire in return." I was cut off by Sesshomaru's sharp tongue.
"Well, I mean, if it's that big of deal to you Sesshomaru, you can always take a mate just to procreate, you don't need to love them in order to have children," I almost said hopefully. God, I was truly pathetic. Surely he knew I was hinting to myself. If I couldn't have him through love, at least let me give him a child.
"No, you don't understand Rin… I don't feel that that is right. In order to bring a child into the world it needs to be surrounded by love," was his response.
This I was not expecting from Sesshomaru, not my Sesshomaru. My lord was now talking of love? I wasn't being judgmental or anything but seriously, since when did he ever take love into account. "Oh," I muttered stupidly.
"Never mind this business, we should be on our way to my brother's castle…" with that Sesshomaru got up and stormed back to camp.
He was starting to get a habit of leaving me like that; it was getting a little annoying. As usual, I got up right after him and followed him back to camp.
We had been traveling for almost half the day. I was so bored! I sat in the medium-sized carriage staring out the window at the passing scenery. Sesshomaru was sitting across from me on the other bench. He was going about his lordly duties, whatever those were.
"Humph…" I sounded my boredom. Sesshomaru gave a glance upward at me with a curious expression on his face. "This is SO boring…" I protested.
Sesshomaru smirked and looked back down at his paper work he was working on, "So what're you going to do about it…?"
He was just asking for trouble, with the ending of his statement I made the initiative to go ahead and tackle my lord. We started wrestling around in the carriage. You could hear me squealing and screaming clear across the country. "Oh no you don't!" growled Sesshomaru as he put me in another of his little wrestling moves that I never could get out of. I winced a little and could feel him easing his grip on my wrists. With that I yanked one of my wrists out of his grasp and gave him a big hard smack, only… I didn't know how hard I had hit him until I realized the reason he wasn't holding me anymore was because he was to busy holding his now bruised and swollen left eye.
"Oh my gosh, Sesshomaru I didn't mean to!" I was almost in tears. I never mean to hurt anyone, even if I dislike him or her.
"It's fine Rin…" he shushed waving his right hand at me and still covering his eye with his left.
I winced once more; I never meant to hurt him. At least it didn't seem like he was thinking about our little incident last night…
"Lord Sesshomaru," came Jaken's voice from outside the carriage, "we are approaching Lord InuYasha's castle."
"Thank you…" replied Sesshomaru with a frown now upon his face. He never seemed like he could be happy around his brother. I understood that he had issues that still needed to be settled between the two of them, but he could at least act happy around his little brother, such as their father's love. I had always wished I could have a sibling of my own, he took it for granted.
Our carriage stopped slowly, we were there; we were at InuYasha's stay…
