'What has gotten into all these women? This is getting insane!' Sesshomaru thought to himself, 'If this keeps up it will take me even longer to get home. I told Rin I should be back by nightfall but at this rate it I might not be back until tomorrow morning'
Meanwhile back at the castle Rin was busy fixing her hair and getting her best kimono on because Sesshomaru was going to be home soon! He had said that he should be home by nightfall or later and Lord Sesshomaru was never late so she expected him home in about two hours. She was busy putting her necklace, which was very long and had a thin silver chain with a large blue stone on it that Sesshomaru had given her. It could put up a barrier around her to protect her if she was every in danger.
After that Rin went down stairs to eat dinner then since it was still about an hour until Sesshomaru came home so she went into the gardens that surrounded the castle. When she was there she found a very beautiful large deep red flower that matched her red, black, and purple kimono perfectly so she put it behind her ear because she hoped it would give her praise from Sesshomaru. Deep down she really did love Sesshomaru it was just she didn't know how he felt about her. That and the fact that she was 12 and Sesshomaru was about 912 (give or take a few). She looked up at the sky to see that it was getting pretty dark so she got up and quickly went into the castle she waited by the front doors that Sesshomaru would come through when he came home.
And she waited and waited and waited. 'What could be taking Lord Sesshomaru so long' she thought to herself. After she had been waiting for about an hour she sat down on a near by chair and ended up falling asleep with her head down and the large flower that she had put in her hair ended up slipping out of her hair and falling in her lap.
