Chapter 4: Apologies then work

Rin awoke dazed at the sound of a knock. Taking the tissue box near her she threw it at the door and cried out," Go away!" The knocking stopped for a bit after the box hit the door but soon it became louder.

"Excuse me ladies, we have apologies to make." Sesshomaru spoke up coldly.

InuYasha merely snorted a," Keh, they're damn lucky we're kind enough to do this."

Kagome and Rin rose out of their uncomfortable positions and inched near the door. Opening the door they had the darkest look the demon brothers had ever seen," Um…we're sorry?" InuYasha whimpered under the hard glare he was receiving from Kagome.

Sesshomaru didn't flinch, he just showed his fear through his eyes," Rin…I apologize for not believing you and was wondering if you would like to be my new secretary." Sesshomaru asked softly though still with the bitterness he always had.

Rin gasped as she saw the swirling feelings rushing through his eyes, embarrassment, shame, sorrow, and regret. She smiled and kissed his lips tenderly," I'd love too…and you're forgiven." Rin said gently before rushing to her bedroom to get ready. It was 7:15 and work started at 8…she could get ready that quick…right? Running to her dresser she pulled out a blouse and a tight-looking black-skirt that ended at her knees. She also tugged out black high-heels and dashed to the bathroom.


Meanwhile, Kagome smacked him on the head and screamed," IS THAT ALL YOU CAN SAY!" She broke out into tears that even the cold-hearted Sesshomaru could come up with a nicer thing to say.

InuYasha's ears drooped as he ran to Kagome's side," Oh no, please don't cry again, I'm sorry Kagome…I should have believed you but I guess I was too angered with the boys that they 'had' your heart and I didn't…" He clasped a hand over his mouth after the words trailed out.

Kagome was now looking at him grinning ear-to-ear," So you were jealous! Well fine, In that case, I forgive you!" She hugged him before sitting back on the couch.

"Erm, don't you work?" InuYasha spoke up blushing," And I wasn't jealous." He mumbled.

"Oh yes, but I don't leave till noon…I work at a café." She whispered sadly.

"That isn't as bad as to where you have to be vice-president in your father's damn fucking business." Inuyasha complained, he took a seat beside Kagome before saying to Sesshomaru," I'm playing hooky." He then refocused his attention on the woman beside him.


Sesshomaru nodded briskly before walking into Rin's room," We don't have all day Rin." Sesshomaru said.

Rin walked out saying," I know." She had put on eyeliner and lip-gloss. Her hair was up in a bun, secured by two chopstick looking things. (AN: Sorry, not sure what those are called…heh heh xD) She grinned and took Sesshomaru's out stretched hand before the two were walking out the door," Don't for to feed Sesshy or Inu!" Rin yelled to her friend.

"I won't!" Kagome replied.


"Sesshy…?" Sesshomaru asked gently looking to Rin with a brow raised.

"My dog, he has white fur and markings just like you done by spray-paint. Inu's lucky though. He only had to have a rosary necklace put on him like a collar." Rin said laughing.

Sesshomaru raised both brows and whispered," Weird…"

"Hey!" Rin said punching him lightly.

Sesshomaru only grinned before bending down, offering his back to her," You took to long so any car isn't going to get us there in time." He chuckled.

Rin's eyes widened as she got on,' Damn skirt!' She thought angrily. Then as soon as Sesshomaru's hand rested on her thighs she squirmed from the feeling his claws gave her.

"Hold still." He replied coolly before running across the land as a mere blur.

Rin gripped tighter onto his shoulders, happy that they were going fast enough so hentais couldn't see her thong that was visible because of her position on Sesshomaru's back. But because of it she couldn't see his head whipping around slowly to get a peak at the skin his claws were holding.

"Here." He said flipping her around so she was in his arms bridal style. He set the girl down and straightened out his ruffled hair and clothing.

Rin blushed but fixed her skirt and hair before smiling," Thank you Mr. Taikosho." Then before he could correct her she said," I must call you that so no one suspects anything." She giggled.

Sesshomaru nodded gently before placing a private kiss on her lips and walking to his office, placing on his emotionless mask to hide himself from the world," Jaken, I have found my secretary. Her name is Rin Takayara, I want you to show her the office she will have." Sesshomaru said motioning to the shy woman behind him.

The imp nodded," Please, come with me Ms. Takayara, or should I call you Mr. Taikosho?" Jaken spoke up after they had walked away.

Rin blushed," No, Ms. Takayara will do." She snapped smiling generously.

Jaken nodded before poking his staff at one of the offices," Here." He said wisely.

"Arigato Jaken-San." Then she entered her office and shut the door behind her before sliding into the seat.

Just then a man entered the room, he was a fox demon. His red hair was tied in a ponytail and he had a toothy grin slapped upon his face," Hello Rin-San, I am Shippo! I will be your office-pal." He said.

Rin stood and shook his hand," Hello Shippo-San." She said happily. Then she noticed a pair of eyes watching her a ways away. They had a longing sort of look. The female who had them was a strawberry-blonde woman who was dressed in her own work attire," Hello Rin-San, I'm Kirara. I am in the office beside you." The woman said grinning gently.

Rin hugged her surprisingly and whispered," Don't worry, I'm taken and he belongs to you." Before pulling away smiling," I'm Rin in case you didn't hear." She laughed soothingly.

Shippo smiled at Kirara before saying," I'm in the office beside you to the left."

"And I'm in the one to your right." Kirara said reassured.

Rin bid farewell to her new friends before opening up her laptop. She set a password for it and set nice wallpaper for it, a one with Sesshomaru posed in a deadly position with the Tokijin in a defensive motion. Rin grinned and downloaded AIM onto her computer where she noticed her phone began to ring. She picked it up and said," Hello this is Rin for the Inu no Taisho corporation, how may I help you?"

"Ah, very beautiful intro Rin," Shippo giggled on the other line," say, do you have a screen name?"

"Thank you! And yes I do…its ShyShojo." Rin said tenderly.

"Okay, mine is chisaikitsune and Kirara's is chisaineko." Shippo said.

"Thank you! Does anyone else have AIM in the building?" She asked politely.

"Yup, Kagome's is TenshiMiko, InuYasha's is TetsuaiagaInu, Miroku's is HentaiMonk, Sango DemonSlayer, Ayame WolvenKami, Kouga SteelFang, and Sesshomaru DeadlyAssassin…"Shippo explained as he listened to the tapping of Rin as she typed in each screen name.

"Thanks again Shippo! Bye!" Rin said as she hung up the phone. Everyone was on, even Sesshomaru. She could tell Shippo had contacted the others through instant messaging because many of her friends began IMing her. She replied with sweet 'Hellos' she obviously knew Kagome's and she obviously wasn't on, and of course neither was InuYasha so they were the only ones who weren't talking to her.

Sesshomaru was the first to reply though.

DeadlyAssassin: So I see you've used the same method as the others…including myself.

ShyShojo: Yup.

DeadlyAssassin: You don't act very shy…

ShyShojo: Oh, shut up Sesshomaru!

DeadlyAssassin: That's Mr. Taikosho to you and don't talk to your boss with such outrage.

ShyShojo: >

DeadlyAssassin: Well, I have a meeting to attend with the others so care to join?

ShyShojo: Only if the Deadly Assassin wants me too.

DeadlyAssassin invites you to join Chat Room: Inu No Taisho Meeting

Rin clicked yes and began conversation with the others about work and such, but what surprised her was when Sesshomaru asked her out to dinner Saturday but in front of every one else!

HentaiMonk:So Rin, you going to except his date? Who knows, maybe after he treats you to dinner maybe he'll put your body to work

DemonSlayer: Damn it Miroku! Why can't you just be non-perverted for one moment!

HentaiMonk: Oh, is my dear Sango jealous?

A loud yelp was heard through out the building.

DemonSlayer: Ah, is my dear Miroku going through severe pain right now?

HentaiMonk: Unfortunetly…yes ;;

DeadlyAssassin: ………

ShyShojo: Of course xD

DemonSlayer has exited the chat room

HentaiMonk has exited the chat room

DeadlyAssassin: We'll continue on the ride on home, I'll take you home on my motorcycle instead of riding me, lol, well, get your things together and meet me out back, it's already time to leave.

ShyShojo: Dang, that meeting must have been long, bye!

DeadlyAssassin: Yup, bye

DeadlyAssassin has left the chat room

ShyShojo has left the chat room


Rin exited out of the chat room and heard grunts and moans coming from the room beside her to the right. Standing up she gathered her things and opened the door and entered before shutting the door leaving a gasping, embarrassed Kirara and a blushing Shippo," I see you two are together now?" Rin giggled," It's time to leave just a heads up." She finished before exiting the room, her cheeks bright red from the sudden impact of the couples mating.

Leaving the building she saw Sesshomaru on the bike, a motorcycle helmet covering his face. She walked up to him and put one on.

"Why do you smell like sex?" Sesshomaru asked calmly.

"If I told you, you promise you wouldn't fire them?" Rin asked gently.

"Depends who it is…if some bastard raped you hell yes I'd fire him…"Sesshomaru snarled.

Rin laughed over the growling noise of the motorbike as it started up," No, my heart belongs to only one person…but it was Kirara and Shippo…I walked in on them to tell them it was time to leave…"Rin said smiling.

"So the cat actually confessed to 'em." Sesshomaru said coldly before driving the motorcycle at full speed down the road.

"Sesshomaru!" Rin screamed holding onto his waist tighter.

Sesshomaru chuckled, "Ah, what are the police going to do. I'm a wealthy man…"He then ran a red light.

Rin frowned," But it's not what they will do. It's what I will do-" Then she cut herself off as she saw her apartment in flames.

"What the hell…"Sesshomaru said icily before riding them over to a gasping Kagome and a sympathetic InuYasha.

"Who did this!" Rin whimpered.

Now it was InuYasha who spoke up," Kagura and her damn workers…then two men who lied to us last night.

"Hojo and Kohaku…" Kagome and Rin whispered, eyes wide.
