Chapter 8

Rin gave a sigh of relief as her lunch hour came. She finished up with the customer who was in the tent then put up the out to lunch sign. She leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes. Almost instantly, she heard someone walk into the tent.

"Can't you read the sign?" She growled, her eyes still closed.

"Of course I can read the sign, I brought you lunch." Sesshoumaru's voice said.

Rin's eyes snapped open. "Sesshoumaru, you have been spoiling me too much. I think that it is time I paid for lunch…or at least dinner tonight."

"Is that an invitation?" He asked innocently.

"Uh…I guess it is." She said with a blush coming to her cheeks.

"Well, you can pay for dinner tonight. I hope you like chicken sandwiches."

Rin gave a nod and took the offered sandwich. She then waved her hand a chair appeared right next to her.

"I see that magic makes one lazy." He said as he sat down.

Rin frowned. "I'm not lazy. Do you think I would look this nice if I were lazy?"

"Maybe." He replied with a slight smirk.

"Grr. You are despicable."

"I do try to be. It's very easy to be myself around you, Rin."

"Well, I wish it wasn't."

"Be careful what you wish for."

Rin rolled her eyes and took a bite from her sandwich. "Did you get some barbeque sauce? This sandwich is a little dull."

"Nope, I didn't think to ask for barbeque sauce."

Rin murmured and immediately a bottle of barbeque sauce appeared.

"How does that work, exactly? Do you magically make it or is it transported from a store or something?"

"Well, some things are made magically…non-edible things. But food has to come from somewhere. So I usually summon something I have at my house. I don't want to steal from a store. But if I do have store things come to me. I make sure that I have the correct amount of money go into the cash register from my money supply."

Sesshoumaru gave a nod. "Thanks for clarifying."

"You're welcome." She replied as she put barbeque sauce on her sandwich. "Anyway, since I can pretty much guess what you are going to ask next…this barbeque sauce is from the fridge at my apartment. Do you want some?"

"No thanks."

Rin gave a nod, muttered some words, and the barbeque sauce disappeared. Then they ate in silence.

"May I watch you predict futures again?" He asked once they finished eating their chicken sandwiches.

Rin thought for a few moments, remembering what happened last time. Then coming to a decision she looked into his eyes. "I'll let you stay, on one condition. Allow me to put an invisible spell on you so no one else can see you."

Sesshoumaru thought for a moment, gazing into her eyes. Then he nodded his head, "I consent to let you make me invisible and turn me back to normal later, but not any other magic."

Rin gave a nod and stood up from her chair. She walked over to him and beckoned him to stand up. Once he was standing, she made herself levitate to be face to face with Sesshoumaru. Then she leaned forward and kissed him on each cheek. She then started to pull back when Sesshoumaru pulled her in and kissed her on the lips.

Rin's eyes widened for a moment, then they closed. One of his hands was on her neck and the other was on her head. Her arms were wrapped around his neck and her hands were subconsciously playing in his hair.

She soon pulled away needing breath. Then she let herself slowly return to the ground and whispered a few words. Sesshoumaru then felt a tingling sensation go through his entire body.

"Now, only I can see you." She said softly, still dazzled over the kiss they had just shared.

Sesshoumaru gave a nod and pulled her back in for another kiss. This kiss involved more tongue and lasted longer.

Rin gasped for air as she pulled away again. She then turned and walked away from him and sat back down into her chair. Sesshoumaru followed and sat down into his own chair.

"We will talk about those kisses later. Right now, I need to go back to work. Just stay sitting there and don't move. I don't want anyone tripping over you." She said then she waved her hand and the out to lunch sign came back in and the tent flapped open.


It was almost time for Rin to close up for the day. Inuyasha and Kagome still hadn't showed up like they said they would and Sesshoumaru was still sitting in the same chair, invisible to all eyes except Rin's.

"Where are they?" Rin asked impatiently. She had been looking forward to them coming all day.

"Knowing my half-brother, they are probably just finishing a long movie or went on a very long dinner date and are just finishing."

Rin growled.

"You are really cute when you growl, even though it is very un-lady like."

"Oh thank you Mr. Proper," she said angrily.

"To get things off your mind, we haven't yet discussed our kisses yet."

"Oh yeah, what was that about anyway?"

"Like I said yesterday, I have felt like I've known you and I wanted that kiss you refused me that night."

"Well…" Rin started but Sesshoumaru quickly interrupted.

"Did you like what you got?"

Rin turned a bit pink. "Y…yeah," she whispered.

"Would you like more?"

Rin turned a deep red. "Uh…not tonight…maybe…a…another time?"

Sesshoumaru was about to say more when Inuyasha and Kagome walked into the tent.

"Sorry to make you wait so long Rin. Inuyasha and I just finished dinner." Kagome said.

Inuyasha glanced around the room. "Weird, I thought Sesshoumaru would have been here."

"Oh, he's here. I just made him invisible so he wouldn't intimidate anyone." She muttered a few words and Sesshoumaru became visible.

"Wow." Inuyasha whistled as he pulled out a chair for Kagome then sat down himself.

"So, am I supposed to tell of each of your futures separately or together?"

"Could you do both?" Kagome asked calmly but her hand showed otherwise…it was shaking.

"There's nothing to be afraid off." Rin said softly.

Kagome nodded.

"Okay. I will do you first, Kagome. Then I'll do yours, Inuyasha. And then I'll do the other one."

They both nodded and Rin closed her eyes.

"Kagome, you will live a long successful life and enjoy every little bit of it. But beware, there are dangers lurking everywhere." Rin paused as she was switching to Inuyasha's future. "Inuyasha, you will also live a long successful life and enjoy every bit of it, however, your future could change in a heartbeat." Rin paused again. "Both of you will enjoy your lives together, you will have a few children and you both will love each other dearly and have a successful marriage. However, this could change any second." Rin opened her eyes. "Your futures can and will change by every little thing you or someone else does."

"Thanks for doing that for us." Inuyasha said and got up. He helped Kagome up and they walked away.

Rin gave a slight sigh and closed up for the night. She then turned around to face Sesshoumaru. "Well, we better go. I owe you dinner."
