Chapter 6
Rin gasped. She had just finished with a fortune telling when she felt one of her predictions come to pass.
"That poor couple," she said softly. She took out the necklace they gave her.
She examined it slowly. Her magic told her that it was pure silver. There was also a design on it. A sun was on one side with Japanese writing that meant safe. On the other side were a moon and a bat. There also was Japanese writing that meant danger. She pulled out the other necklace she got. It was the exact same. Weird, she though. She put them both down onto the table, muttered a few words, and they glowed a pure white. She muttered a few more words and they glowed red.
"Figures," she said out loud, "they have a protection spell since it glowed white, but it won't stop a vampire since it glowed red.. They meant well, but…these won't protect me." She waved a hand and the crucifixes disappeared off the table. Then she started to clean up.
Once she finished, she used her magic to change clothes and left her tent. Outside of the tent stood Sesshoumaru and was waiting patiently for her. He was wearing a black t-shirt and navy jeans. His long white stood out amongst the dark colors. His golden eyes sparkled with want. He examined her slowly. She was in a light blue tank top and a knee length, darker blue skirt that showed off her midriff.
"You look nice. Ready?" He asked.
"I'm ready. You look nice too." She replied.
"Would you like to go eat first?"
"Uh, sure. As long as it is not at a bar. Do you have a cell phone? I need to call Kagome and tell her not to wait up for me."
"You don't have a cell phone? Here." He handed her the cell phone.
Rin dialed Kagome's number and got the answering machine.
"Hey Kagome. I'll be late. Don't wait up for me. I'm with Sesshoumaru on a…date. Bye."
Sesshoumaru cocked an eyebrow. A questioning look was in his eyes.
"That was the answering machine," Rin said to answer his unspoken question.
"Oh? Where do you think she is?"
Rin closed her eyes for a moment. "Kagome and your half-brother are…" Rin blushed a deep red.
Sesshoumaru chuckled. "Your innocence is very cute, Rin."
He started off towards his car and Rin followed.
Later on, they arrived at a 24/7 expensive restaurant. "I can't eat here." Rin said.
"Why not?" He asked.
"I can't allow you to spend a lot of money on me."
"You are worth more than what I will pay here, Rin." He said catching her eyes. A hint of lust flickered into his eyes. "Besides, then you will owe me something."
"I won't give you my body, if that is what you want."
"I, dear Rin, want you to be my girlfriend."
"But, we barely met yesterday."
"Rin. If you don't feel this bond that I feel towards you, then we can wait till we know each other better. But I feel as if I know you already."
Rin looked at him for a bit, and then gave a slight nod. "I feel the same. It's as if…" She stopped.
"We knew each other in another time. Oh, and another thing. Can I have you promise that you won't use your magic on me?"
Rin looked at him suspiciously. "Why?"
"I'm worried you would use it on me and I want to know that you won't."
Rin sighed. "You just want to make me normal when I'm around you, don't ya? Fine, I'll make another magical binding promise. But I have a feeling I'm going to regret it." She made the promise and they went into eat.
"Welcome to my home. I hope you like it."
"Wow, it's so huge. You live here all alone?"
"Yes. Inuyasha didn't want to live here. Thought it was too stuffy."
Rin laughed a light, gentle laugh. "I find it…I don't know. But I don't think it's stuffy. What movie are we going to watch?"
"Brom Stoker's Dracula."
"Isn't that rated R?"
"Yes, it is. Problem?"
"No…of course not. It's just…I don't normally watch rated R movies."
"Oh. Well, if you don't want to watch it…we could watch…What do you want to watch?"
"Well, do you own the movie When a Stranger Calls? It just came out on video. I've wanted to see it."
"No, I haven't gotten that one yet. How about The Ring?"
"Sure."
Sesshoumaru grabbed the movie and put it in. Then he sat down on the loveseat that was in front of the TV. He motioned for Rin to sit down besides him.
Rin looked around for another place to sit. Not finding one, she sat down by Sesshoumaru on the too close for comfort loveseat.
Throughout the movie, Rin buried her face many times into Sesshoumaru's shoulder. Sesshoumaru was grateful that they had picked a scary movie or Rin wouldn't have used his shoulder.
"Want to watch another?" Sesshoumaru asked.
"I best get home. It's really late."
"All right. I'll take you home."
Sesshoumaru stood up and helped Rin to her feet. Still holding her hand, they walked to the door. He opened it and had Rin go through first, letting go of her hand. He followed after her, closing the door behind him. They got into his car and drove towards Rin's apartment in silence.
Once they arrived. Rin opened her door. "Thanks for the dinner. I still wish you didn't take me there. Good night Sesshoumaru."
"Good night Rin. Thanks for spending time with me. Can we do something tomorrow?"
"Uh…maybe." Rin replied as she got out. She closed the car door and started to walk towards her apartment when she heard his car door open.
"Rin?"
"Yes, Sesshoumaru?" She asked turning around to face him.
He walked towards her and stopped a foot away. His hand touched her hair. He watched her for a moment then started to bend towards her. Rin, caught up in the moment, leaned towards him. They both paused, inches away from each other, then Rin turned away.
"Goodnight Sesshoumaru." And she walked away and went into her apartment. She closed the door and locked it. Sesshoumaru gave a sigh then went to his car and left.
That was…strange. Rin thought, we almost kissed. I feel as if I have known him longer than two days.
She went to her bedroom, got into her Pajamas, and went to sleep.
Well, I changed my mind about the amount of reviews. I plan to try and update once a week. It's just taking to long to get ten reviews. Anyways, I have finished typing up all of my story. It has twenty chapters and a Epilogue and Prologue. And each chapter has at least 1,000 words. Hope you enjoy.
