Chapter 7

Anonymous?

I was pissed. No, I was beyond pissed. I was like an angry bull in the middle of a crowded Spanish street, chasing an annoying douchebag wearing red. All I wanted to do was ramp into Kagura's behind and make her fly twenty feet into the air. But I also wanted to do the same to Sesshomaru and not because of what you were thinking. Don't ask why I was angry at him but it probably had to do something with the fact he was hiding something from me.

Now don't get me wrong, I was used to shit being said behind my back, since there were a school full of posters saying I was a whore, but what I wasn't used to was the fact that my boyfriend might be lying to me. I hated liars more then I hated my worst enemy- who happened to be my boyfriend. Huh. Still, as I stood there wondering what the hell Sesshomaru said to his buddies, I couldn't help be feel a little scared. What was so bad that he couldn't tell me? Did he make a bet with them or something?

As I was mindlessly being carried away from Kagura, I knew I had to ask him or be cursed for the rest of my life of not knowing.

He put me down at my locker and I faced him, minding my sore and probably very swollen foot. "What the hell was that about?"

"You tell me?" he asked.

Was he serious? "What was Cow-Grass talking about?"

He raised an eyebrow. "Cow-Grass?"

Okay, so I made a new nickname for her. "You know what I mean. What were you talking to friends about when I was 'drunk badly'?" Using quotation marks around 'drunk badly' to make fun of Kagura's awful description.

"Nothing, don't worry about it," he said as he leaned down to kiss me.

I pushed him away, not in the mood for any romantic activities. I crossed my arms mentally telling him that I meant business. There was no gate that wasn't going to be opened until I got my damn answer. "Tell me!" I demanded.

I saw him glance away in frustration. He was thinking. Of what? - I had no idea. "Okay, fine. I might've made a small bet while you were intoxicated."

"What kind of small bet?" I asked, raising my voice a smidge.

"They just thought I wouldn't last one full week with you so, I made a bet that I could make you fall deeply in love with me and date you. I feel like it wouldn't be a problem since I already had feelings for you. That's it."

I didn't know how to feel about this little bet of his. One, I could be furious with him and tell that he was a total asshole for making this bet. Or two, I could jump up and down like a little school girl and say how happy I was. My mind was in two places at the moment so I just huffed, pretending to be mad at him while I was actually very happy.

"Don't be angry," he said, lifting my chin up to his face. "The bet wasn't even a bet to begin with since I already planned on dating you."

"What did you bet on?"

"If I won then they would have to dance at the year-end prom like a chicken wearing chicken suits."

I burst out laughing. That was pure genius. "Okay and if you lose?"

"Why would I lose? I got the girl. She loves me, I love her. The bet is done."

I blinked slowly, not believe what I just heard. "Did you just say you loved me?"

"Don't make me repeat myself. You know what I said."

I kissed him fully on the lips, not caring if people saw. So what if we were making-out in the hallway? Apparently the principle since he all of a sudden cleared his throat announcing his presence. "Ms. Mori, Mr. Takahashi, I understand that you two are unfortunately handcuffed together but that does not mean you can just make-out in the hallway. Do I make myself clear?"

"Crystal," Sesshomaru grinned.

"And no funny business, Mr. Takahashi," the principle warned.

He did a salute signal to him as we watched the principle walk away. I giggled as Sesshomaru pulled me into another kiss, shorter than the last but still as passionate. "Are you still mad at me?" he asked, low.

"I'm always mad at you, Takahashi. Haven't you learned anything these past few years?"

"I must've missed that." He kissed me again.

God, I couldn't get enough of his kissing. All I wanted to do was drag him into a closet and…wait, I wasn't going to tell you my dirty thoughts. Gross. Let's keep it PG-13 kids alright? For now at least.

"So," I started, preparing to open my locker, "what would've happened if you lost the bet?"

He chuckled. "I would have to wear a chicken suit in front of everyone at the prom."

I laughed. "So it would be the same."

"Yup. But good thing I didn't lose," he said, kissing my cheek.

I grinned as I opened my locker. Then something caught my eye as it floated to the ground. It was a pink envelope with my name written beautifully on the front. "What's this?" I questioned, opening it up, and reading it allowed. "Roses are red, violets are blue. Your voice is sweet and I like you."

Did you ever get those strange love letters when you were in high school? And if you did, was it creepy? Maybe it wouldn't be creepy if they signed their name at the bottom. But if there wasn't any name, then it would just become weird, thinking you had a secret admirer or something. Don't get me wrong, I thought it was pretty cool that I had a secret admirer but they were a little late since I had a boyfriend that could probably kill them.

"Anonymous?" I questioned, reading the signed name. I flipped the paper seeing if there would be a stamp or a watermark but nothing. Was this some kind of joke?

Sesshomaru took it from my hand and begun to sniff it. "Perfume. Rose perfume to be exact. I don't like it."

Well duh, captain obvious, of course you wouldn't like it. Your girlfriend just got a love letter from an unknown guy, why wouldn't you be a little off?

That's when the bell rang. I shoved the letter back into my locker and we headed to class slowly. Sesshomaru looked like he was going to explode and I didn't blame him. "Don't be jealous," I told him.

"I'm not jealous," he stiffened, growling. "I'm concerned."

"Right, and I'm president of the United States. Don't worry about it Sesshomaru. I'm not worried so you shouldn't be."

That was a lie. I was worried. Anxious was more like it, actually. Someone in this school was either playing some funny joke or was secretly trying to get to me. Either way, they were making my life a living hell.

The entire class all I could think about was that note. How could fourteen words cause so much terror in a mind? And I was pretty sure Sesshomaru could feel my discomfort as well since he kept glancing over at me and placing his cuffed hand on my leg. All I wanted was to go home.

Lunch wasn't any better since I had become very paranoid. I kept glancing around the cafeteria, searching for my mysterious admirer. There were a few guys that I thought could be the culprit but came to a dead end when I saw their girlfriends come up. Kagura was again staring burn holes into my head and if I wasn't injured or stuck to a dog demon, I would have my way with her in seconds and her head would be in the trash. Of course, I still had the little problem of being nicknamed 'Virgin Whore' from those damn posters. People were now whispering, gossiping, and telling stories about how I 'got it on' in the janitor's closet with Sesshomaru, which hasn't happened yet. I wonder why Kagura hasn't been suspended or gotten a punishment. Seemed strange she would be let off with a simple week's detention.

"Rin," Ayame called me, "are you okay? You seem agitated."

"She's worried that someone might be stalking her after she found a love note in her locker," Sesshomaru answered.

"You seem mighty calm about this since this is your girlfriend who got the letter."

"I'm trying to keep myself from not killing every single guy in this room."

Ayame made a face of disgust and pushed her food away. "I suddenly have lost my appetite."

I stopped biting my nails nervously and saw Kagome skip into the room, happy as always. "Hello, guys. Guess what?"

"You found out who wrote that note in my locker?" I jumped up.

She gave me a confused look. "Uh, no."

"You finally found the meaning of life?" Ayame guessed, bored.

"Forty-two," I blabbed."

"Correct!" she smiled.

"Ah no," Kagome answered again, confused.

"Wait, the answer isn't forty-two?" I asked. Look I was trying to keep my mind away from the fact that there might be a serial killer looking for me. But then again, there might be a guy who has a major crush on me. Either way, I was just trying to forget it.

"What? No, I was going to say that…I got asked out on a date!" she squealed.

I would've given her a hug if I wasn't tied to a certain demon but I did shriek in excitement, making Sesshomaru jump. "Kagome! That's awesome! Who is it?"

"It's Hojo!" she peeped.

Then I became somehow amused. Ayame was the same, laughing out loud. "You mean Hojo the Helpful?"

I laughed with her while Sesshomaru just silently sat there probably thinking what odd-balls we were. Whatever, we are girl and we do girlish things, like making fun of weird guys.

"Come on guys, he's really not that bad," Kagome avenged him.

"Oh yeah," Ayame agreed, trying not to laugh. "So, um…has he helped you do your homework yet?"

"Oh, oh, and has he helped you on answers while taking a test?" I winked at her. Ayame stopped laughing and looked at me. "What?"

"No, Rin…never mind."

I apparently didn't get it. Was there some kind of joke to this…oh. "Ah, okay. I get it."

I haven't heard much about Hojo the Helpful before since I was too in tuned with Sesshomaru business. Apparently what I've heard about him is that he's the easiest guy to get into bed. This was where he got the name 'helpful' from. He's 'helpful' to a lot of girl.

Now I understood what they meant. Man, I think I had a blond moment there.

"You guys are mean," Kagome whined.

Ayame stopped laughing and apologised. "We're sorry, Kagome. It's just that he's not really your type."

"And how do you know what my type it."

I smiled, answering this question. "Well, we know that you secretly love a certain half-demon."

She frowned. "We know a half-demon? Who?"

Sesshomaru sighed heavily, obviously knowing who we were talking about and how sick he was on listening to our conversation.

I rolled my eyes and looked at her with the 'are-you-kidding-look.' "Inuyasha."

Her face turned priceless. "What! I don't love him, are you mental?"

"Oh Kagome, your words says you don't but your eyes say you do."

"Do not!"

I nodded. "Don't deny it. That's what happened to me and look at me now."

"You're handcuffed to your ex-enemy slash boyfriend."

"Exactly."

"And all thanks to me," Ayame added.

"So what you're saying is that I should be handcuffed to Inuyasha? Hell no," Kagome gasped.

"Ayame, do you have any extra handcuffs lying around?" I asked her.

"I might. I might," she joked.

"No way! You stay away from me with those things. I don't want to wait months to get free."

"Hey, it's not that bad," I shrugged.

"Yeah, right. Easy for you to say. You're dating the guy handcuffed to you. I wouldn't stand ten minutes with Inuyasha. He is the most low-life, inconsiderate jerk that ever walked the earth."

Well speak of the devil himself. While Kagome was saying those lovely things about Inuyasha, we failed to notice him stroll into the room and look at us before making his way over. Sesshomaru noticed him right when he entered the cafeteria but never told us-bastard. Still, I didn't know what would happen. But who knows, it might be entertaining.

"Well, you aren't too bad either, cupcake," he grinned.

Kagome shivered, looking back at him. I laughed and Sesshomaru only glared at him, mentally telling to him to beat it.

"I meant what I said," Kagome crossed her arms. "I'm not taking it back."

"Whatever, I can care less about your thoughts about me. I just came over here to tell the lovebirds that nobody would be home tonight," he winked, smirking at us.

I knew what he thinking because I was thinking the exact same thing. Oh geez, Inuyasha, why did you have to put that idea in Sesshomaru's head.

I looked over to see him smirking slightly. Oh great!

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"I have a date with Kikyo, and Mom and Dad are going on a weekend getaway to the vacation home."

"Kikyo? As in that religious slut?" Sesshomaru questioned. Woah, Sesshomaru! Words now!

"She's not a slut!" Inuyasha argued.

"She's a slut," Kagome agreed.

"Whatever!" he growled. "Have fun tonight kiddies."

I had a feeling we would.

xXx

The mansion was strangely empty. I would've thought the odd maid would be running around but nope- there was nobody. No footsteps. No noise. Nothing. "This place is eerie when it's empty," I commented.

"That's good. Then nobody will hear us," Sesshomaru joked, evilly.

"You're not funny," I plainly said.

He pulled me into him, leaning closer to my face. "We are all alone for the night. What else are we supposed to do?"

I narrowed my eyes. I couldn't believe him! "God, you're horny!"

"I haven't had sex for a few weeks, do you blame me? Besides, how could I not be horny with a beautiful human stuck next to me?"

I scoffed, pushing him away. "Flattery isn't going to get you anywhere."

He sighed in exasperation. "Fine."

God, he just wouldn't give up. He was like a dog wanting to go for a walk; not giving up until the owner stopped ignoring him and took him. Attention seekers…I hated them. "You're killing me Takahashi!" I complained.

"Wouldn't you rather die of passion then of boredom?"

"All I want to do is relax though. Can we watch a movie or something? My foot is really starting to bug the crap out of me."

"Very well."

Let just say what was supposed to be a nice quiet evening of movies, turned into a make-out session. And then the make-out session turned into us taking our clothes off, which lead to…you guessed it…sex. Thank god Sesshomaru had a condom in his pocket. I didn't want to ask why he did but it probably had to do with the reason he was known to have sex anywhere. Anyways, he was right about nobody hearing us because my screams could've been mistaken for the Banshee's wails.

As I fell asleep in Sesshomaru's arms, all my worries had gone to the back of my head. There was no point on worrying about them now. Not until tomorrow anyway.
