I can't tell you how excited I am for this story. Like really.

I OWN A WHOLE LOT OF NADA.

Sesshomaru let the alcohol run down his throat before he swallowed. He thought back to Rin. He didn't know why she interested him.

''What are you thinking about?'' Sara snapped Sesshomaru from his thoughts.

''A woman,'' He answered her.

''Oh really? What woman?'' Sara smirked.

''I don't know who she is but I met her last night on the beach,'' Sesshomaru replied.

''When did you go to the beach?'' Sara frowned.

''Last night. I went into town to clear my head. That girl was different than other humans I've met. She was understanding and smelled delicious,'' Sesshomaru sighed.

''There are a lot of understanding women who smell good. The important thing is that you find yourself with the right woman for the right reasons. A woman who really loves you and would never hurt you,'' Sara smiled.

''You think I could find someone like that?'' Sesshomaru questioned.

''Why not? You just have to make sure that you pay attention and realize when she shows up,'' Sara hinted.

''I'm going to rest,'' Sesshomaru announced. ''Good night.''

''Sesshomaru? I'm scared things are going to change between us. You'll leave soon now that you have your mother's old house to look after. What will happen?''

''Nothing will change. You are still the only person I really talk to other than my brother. You have no need to worry,'' Sesshomaru tried to comfort before leaving.

Sara's eyes began to tear up. She felt like she was going to lose him.


A few days passed.

''Rin? I'm so glad to see you!'' Kagome Higurashi, now Onigumo exclaimed.

''Kagome!'' Rin squealed and pulled her in for a hug before kissing her cheek. ''When did you get back from your honeymoon?''

''A few days ago. You don't even know how incredible it was,'' Kagome replied.

''Why didn't you come visit me before? Tell me all about your honeymoon,'' Rin smiled.

''Oh my husband is the best! He bought me everything he could find. I had to get extra luggage while I was gone to hold everything!'' Kagome's voice was filled with excitement.

''Wow! But I meant being married. Is it everything you ever imagined and dreamed of?'' Rin asked.

''You dreamed of the same things since you met Kohaku,'' Kagome retorted.

''Yes but you're not answering my question Kagome,'' Rin looked at her friend with concern.

''Naraku is a great man and I love him as much as he loves me,'' Kagome answered with a small smile. ''Let's go grab some coffee and you can tell me all about you and Kohaku. Have you told your family about him yet?''

''No. No, not yet Kagome but it's because Kohaku is out of town right now,'' Rin shared.

''When does he get back?'' Kagome questioned.

''Today, finally,'' Rin sighed. ''We need to meet up soon. I'm in a hurry because I have to go meet my mom at church because she's watching me like a hawk lately and if I don't want her even angrier at me then I can't miss mass,'' Rin pressed an affectionate kiss to Kagome's cheek. ''Take care.''


''Daddy? How are you feeling?'' Rin questioned as she stepped into her father's home office.

''Fine sweetie. How are you?'' Admiral Yamamoto asked her.

''Good. Kagome has returned from her honeymoon,'' Rin grinned.

''Oh yeah? How is she? Happy?'' Yamamoto inquired.

''Yes. Why?'' Rin questioned.

''Well I only ask because dating is one thing but marriage is another all together,'' Yamamoto informed.

Rin nodded. ''Well I certainly won't get the chance to get married with mama spying on me all the time.''

Just as Rin finished, her mother, Raven Yamamoto walked in.

''Rin, go out so I can talk with your father.''

''Yes ma'am,'' Rin sighed. ''I was just about to leave anyway and get some air. Good night daddy. Night mama.''


Rin smiled brightly when she saw Kohaku standing, waiting for her on the beach. She crept up behind him and kissed his cheek.

''I don't want to wait anymore. I need you to talk to my dad.''

''Yes. I know, I know,'' Kohaku sighed.

''It's just..I really don't like lying to him and keeping secrets. I've always been very honest with him and if he finds out another way then I'll feel terrible,'' Rin grimaced.

''...''

Rin looked at her boyfriend. ''What? You don't want to tell him?''

''No, no, no. It's not that. It's just once I do, our relationship will end,'' Kohaku sighed.

Rin pulled away. ''Why do you say that?''

''Ah Rin. I'm a simple Corporal. I have no money, no parents, you come from a good family. Understand?'' Kohaku tried to reason.

''Again with that? The most important thing is that I love you. That is the most important thing!'' Rin whined.

''I agree but to your family that is not most important. I'll talk to them but I am sure they won't accept me. You'll see,'' Kohaku frowned.

''The most important thing to my dad is my happiness,'' Rin smiled. Kohaku couldn't help but return it.

''When do you want me to go see him?''

''Tomorrow,'' Rin challenged.

''Perfect. First thing tomorrow I'll talk to him,'' Kohaku replied.

''Seriously?'' Rin questioned.

''Seriously,'' Kohaku promised and pulled her closer for a kiss. Rin deepened it.


The next morning arrived quickly. Rin was restless. Everything would come together today. She looked down at her watch. Kohaku would be here any second.

Her thoughts were cut short when she heard the doorbell ring. Rin hurried to open the door and squealed with happiness when she saw the man she loved.

''I thought you wouldn't come,'' Rin pressed a quick kiss to his lips after she checked to make sure no one else was around. ''Let me tell my dad you're here!''

''Wait. Wait. Come here. What will happen if your father says no? Will you still marry me?'' Kohaku asked.

''He will say yes. Now stop making me more nervous than I already am,'' Rin scolded. ''Wait right here.''

Rin closed the door and ran to her father's office.

''Daddy? Are you busy?''

''No dear. What can I do for you?'' Her father asked.

''Corporal Mai came to talk to you,'' Rin answered.

''Corporal Mai? I don't know who that is,'' Her father said.

''Of course you do daddy. He was here a few days ago to bring you a message from Captain Midoriya,'' Rin reminded him.

''Captain Midoriya? Ah! What a bad memory I have. Send him in,'' Her father instructed.

''Yes!'' Rin smiled brightly and rushed out to the front door just in time to hear knocking. ''You have no patience my love. I'm coming.''

Rin opened the door and the smile slipped from her face as Sesshomaru looked at her from the porch.

''Hello.''
