Hey guys. I'm kinda starting to have a bad time with this Fanfic, but I'm writing it anyway! So, here is the date you've all been waiting for! (Thank you sooo much Mew Rin!)

Chapter 15
A Little Surprise
Rin was unbelievably tired. Even as she cooked she wasn't all there. She fully awoke when Sesshomaru came out of his room threatening to kill one of her best friends. As soon as he was seated at the bar, watching her, she seemed back to normal. Putting the utensils Miroku sat on into the sink (who would want to eat out of them?) she made everyone breakfast burritos. No chaos filled the kitchen for once.
'I wonder what the guys did last night to be so tired. I mean we have a good reason to, but…' She remembered the chase last night. The next time, they wound get those bastards!
"Hey Rin, wutcha make'n?" Asked Miroku, amazingly awake all of the sudden (Sango shared a chocolate bar with him. Bad idea).
"Food. Here, it's done." She said, holding out his plate. Miroku fetched his plate and grabbed Sango's while he was at it. She was already at the table, deader than usual. Everyone gathered in a silent breakfast. It was really creepy. Finally Sango, sick of silence, started to flick food pieces that had fell out of her burrito at Inu, who was across the table.
"Stop that, dammit!" Inuyasha yelled, holding his hand up to protect him from UFFs (unidentified flying foods). So Sango aimed at Kagome. Who fired first at Sango then at Rin (because she was still afraid of Sessh). Rin aimed at Sessho because she could, who in turn shot at Miroku. Miroku started shooting at Inuyasha and his girlfriend. Laughing like morons, they continued to shoot food at each other until their Burritos were no more.
Then Rin looked around the room. Maybe a breakfast food fight wasn't the best idea. Egg was stuck to the wall and there were a number of food parts on the floor. Then she noticed a piece of sausage stuck to Sesshomaru's nose and momentarily forgot about the mess as she laughed her ass off. After getting the food off of all surfaces, everyone was wide-awake.
Miroku and Sango had apparently decided to go out today and had completely vanished within the thirty minutes it took Rin to do the dishes. He was taking her to a nice restaurant then letting her drag him around the mall. Rin just new that later she would see Sango come through the door with a manicure followed by Miroku carrying around twenty heavy bags. Then she thought about the date she had in two hours with Sesshomaru. (As soon as she thought about it, Rin squeaked happily and nearly dropped a dish because she wasn't paying attention.) Grinning, she finished with the kitchen and went to her room to get ready.
Sesshomaru meanwhile, was in his room, as nervous and happy about the date as Rin was (though he didn't show, no, because he is the all-mighty Sesshy!). He already had on his clothes; traditional Japanese clothing his mother had made for him. Sessh had gone all-out. Dressed as a demon, (same white clothes as the anime minus fluffy) he had a crescent moon on his forehead and fangs. His hair was now white and his eyes amber. He new quite a few people who were dressing like demons for this. He had heard from Kagome that Ayame and Koga were going as wolf demons, which is why she and Inuyasha were going out for a peaceful dinner instead. Now he was ready. And there was still an hour until they were leaving. So he paced. And paced. And paced. And paced some more. Then he silently yelled at himself for being stupid and pacing. Then he yelled at himself for getting ready to early. Then he just continued pacing.
Rin wasn't must better. She had taken longer than Sesshomaru to get ready, but she was pacing around her room the same as him. She had on the beautiful kimono Sessho got her, along with the necklace that she hadn't taken off since he gave it to her. She had sandals on, ones with wooden bottoms and aqua blue straps across her foot that matched her outfit. Her hair was down and she wore a silver anklet but nothing else, a simple mix that looked excellent on her. And she was pacing. Just like Sesshomaru.
Finally the hour came around and Sesshomaru was knocking on Rin's door, wondering if she was still getting ready. The door swung open and there stood one of the most gorgeous creatures Sesshomaru had ever seen (AWWWWWWWWW!). Rin was in shock. Sesshomaru looked so COOL as a demon! She grinned up at him, and he smiled back. Then they left for the first part of their date.
After an interesting ride there (Rin had opened the dash board and found like fifty pairs of chopsticks, then had an odd conversation with Sessh about why he kept chopsticks in the dash board) they climbed out of Sesshomaru's awesome car and joined the celebration. In seconds, Rin saw a large booth with fabrics and kimonos and cloaks. And she wanted to check it out.
"Come on Sesshy, I want to see the clothes!" Rin said, half walking half skipping to the booth. The booth was set up kinda like a store, with racks for the clothing to hang from. As Sesshomaru followed the overjoyed Rin, he lost sight of her. Walking over to where he last saw her, in front of a rack of cloaks, Sesshomaru looked around.
"Rin? Where are you?" He asked right before something in black lunged at him through the clothes! They both went tumbling to the ground. As he brushed the hair out of his face, he heard a girl's giggling. He looked up to the girl in black. "Rin, get that thing off your head."
Rin had thrown a random cloak over her head before attacking. Now it was dangling off the side of her head, showing only half of the girl's face. He pulled it off and sat up halfway. He couldn't completely sit up because Rin was sitting on him with her hands on his chest to keep her up. She snatched the cloak from him and put it back over her head. He pulled it away so he could see her face. "Rawr!" Her hand formed into a claw.
"Ahhh it's a demon!" Sesshomaru said mockingly. Rin stuck her tongue out at him and got up, putting the cloak back where she got it. As soon as Sesshomaru stood up, he was being pulled toward something else. Laughing quietly to himself, he walked faster so she could no longer pull his arm out of its socket. Next they went to a booth that had a ton of jewelry and knickknacks. Rin found a cute little cow with magnets in its hooves and Sesshomaru paid for it. Rin was already planning on sticking it to the fridge. Then they found one of those all-so-familiar carnival games. This was one of the ones that make you throw softballs at empty milk bottles.
"You guys just love festivals, don't you?" Rin asked playfully.
"Yep. It gives us a chance to show off." Sesshomaru grinned, then knocked down the entire pyramid of bottles with ease. She shook her head and knocked down half of her bottles. Rin, of coarse, got to pick the prize because what the hell would Sesshomaru do with a stuffed animal? They continued on like this for hours, beating each other in games, shopping, and eating that fattening but oh-so-good food they have at those things. Finally, they left feeling happy that the day went so well.
"Are you hungry?"
"Kinda, why? You planning on taking me out to eat?"
"Something close to that." Sesshomaru leaned behind him and pulled a picnic basket from the back seat (don't worry, their wasn't anybody on the rode at the moment). Rin took it from him, opening it up to look inside as Sesshomaru turned onto an older road. Inside the basket there was sub sandwiches, watermelon, potato chips and bottled water. There was also a thermos, but Rin didn't open it. Sesshomaru made another turn, onto a small dirt road, and then turned into an unnoticeable driveway. Parking the car, He got out and opened Rin's door for her.
"Where are we?"
"This is where Inuyasha's mother lives usually. She's on a vacation right now, so she said we could have the picnic in the garden." Sesshomaru held the basket in one hand and grasped Rin's hand with the other. Leading her down a slightly rocky path, he was happy that he thought of this.
Rin gasped and her eyes went wide at the sight of the garden. It was beautiful. Around the small path were roses in wonderful colors. A huge oak tree stood tall beside a brook, Giving shade to a grassy clearing. The brook led underneath a wooden bridge and into a coy pond surrounded by cattails and reeds. Other flowers like lilies and a few sunflowers gathered everywhere, splashes of color that seemed to make the world a little brighter.
"Its…its…"
"Stunning? I know. This is my mother's private garden. She grew everything here. Except maybe the Oak tree and the pond." He pulled her along gently. Rin matched his step, but kept her eyes on the surrounding plants, mesmerized. She trusted Sesshomaru to not let her fall down.
"Rin, if you don't watch it, you're going to run into the side of the bridge." Sesshomaru said, waving his hand in front of her face. Rin snapped back and stepped onto the bridge instead of walking into the water. Sesshomaru laid out the blanket and set the food out. Rin sat down with her back to the oak tree and started to eat her sandwich.
"Where is Inu's mom right now? Where did she go on vacation?" Rin asked.
"The Caribbean. She said she wanted to go there for the longest time so she finally saved up enough money to go." He answered, passing her a water bottle. The two of them talked like this for a long time, telling each other funny stories, sharing bad experiences, and remembering stupid things their friends had done. Soon it was getting dark and a cool wind was blowing. Sesshomaru pulled out the thermos and opened it, filling two mugs with hot green jasmine tea. Screwing the lid back in place, He went to hand one of the cups to Rin and realized she was now right beside him, scooting over and snuggling to keep warm. Smiling, he put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close, handing her a cup of tea. She thanked him and they sat in comfortable silence, sipping tea and listening as the night creatures came out to play. At last they packed everything up, (much to their disappointment) and left the lovely garden and their spot beneath the oak tree.
