Naraku glared at Sesshomaru.
He wasn't stupid and knew better than to mess with Sesshomaru.
"Fine, but next time you won't be as lucky."
Naraku took a glance at Rin and then walked down the street.
Rin turned and quickly bowed at Sesshomaru. "Domo arigato gozaimasu Sesshomaru. If it wasn't for you…I don't know what would have happened."
"It's no problem. But you should be more cautious about your surroundings Rin. There aren't a lot of good people in the world."
Before Rin could reply, Sango, Kagome, Miroku, and Kirara came up and ran to Rin.
"Are you alright Rin?" Kagome asked.
"We just saw Naraku a few minutes ago walking away from here." Sango said.
"Yeah, I'm alright. But I don't know what I would have done if Sesshomaru hadn't come and helped me."
"Arigato Takahashi. But if you hurt a hair on Rin's head, I'll make sure that-" Miroku put his hand over Sango's mouth.
"What Sango meant to say was, thanks a lot for helping Rin. Isn't that right Sango?" Miroku asked.
All anyone could hear was a muffled reply.
"Now, I should get going before Sango kills me. Bye!" Miroku took his hand off of Sango's mouth and ran down the street.
Sango's face was red as she shouted and chased after Miroku.
Rin, Kirara, and Kagome did an anime sweat dropped while Sesshomaru looked like he didn't really care.
Kagome and Kirara quickly tired to catch up with Sango, just to make sure she didn't kill Miroku.
As soon as they were out of earshot, Rin started talking.
"I'm sorry if my friends' behavior was a little…disturbing. But thank you very much for your help. Is there anything I could do to make it up?"
"No. It doesn't matter."
Before Rin could reply, her friends came running in her direction.
Sesshomaru, uninterested, walked towards the parking lot and to his car.
"See you around Rin." He called over his shoulder.
He drove off down the street.
"Oh, I think someone likes you Rin." Kagome winked at Rin.
"Oh shut up."
"So you do have a crush on someone! That is so sweet! My little baby is growing up!" Kagome cried, wiped away an imaginary tear.
Kirara and Kagome burst out laughing when they saw how red Rin's face was.
"Oh stop it. I didn't know you and Kirara could be so mean!" Rin pretended to be hurt.
"We aren't being mean Rin! We're just…stating the truth." Kirara said.
"Right…" Rin grinned.
Sighing, Rin threw her algebra book to the ground. Why did they have to bother learning all this stuff when they probably won't need it later on?
Rin looked out her window, hearing the birds chirp and watching the wind gently ruffling the leaves on a tree.
Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard a knock coming from the door.
"Hey Rin. It's Kagome, can I come in?"
"Of course. I was hoping for a distraction since this algebra homework is killing me." Rin frowned jokingly.
Kagome laughed. "Anyways, the rest of the gang is heading out to the mall, you want to go?"
Rin sighed. "I'm sorry, but I have so much homework and I don't think I would be able to finish it all if I went."
"Aww, please? I'm sure you'll finish it all in time. Anyways, I'll help you out afterwards." Kagome begged.
"Okay, okay. I give in." Rin smiled.
"Yay! We'll be leaving in an hour, so be ready by then." Kagome closed the door.
Rin didn't see the point in changing her clothes, so she started working hard to finish as much of her homework as she could.
They were all stuffed in Miroku's car as they headed towards the mall.
"Now, I bet you're wondering why we're here Rin." Kagome announced when they entered the mall.
"No, not really. I just figured you all wanted to shop and look around." Rin simply answered.
Kagome blushed a bit. "Well…that too. But we're here for another reason. The reason we're here is that we're going to buy you new clothes!"
"What?! What's wrong with my old clothes?" Rin frowned in protest, looking at her attire. She was wearing a simple green shirt that had a white heart on it.
"You're shirt would be okay…except that it has no shape. It just doesn't flatter you're curves and you're jeans are simply not helping you." Sango stated.
"Crap, you dragged me along to make me carry the bags." Miroku's eyes widened in realization.
"Yep! Now come one!" The girls dragged Rin and Miroku to a clothing store.
After hours of shopping, frustration, fun, and poor Miroku having been forced to carry all the bags, the trip had finally ended.
After buying tons of outfits for Rin, they made her change into the clothes after buying it.
They were heading towards the food court. Rin was wearing a sleeveless pink shirt with a little lace at the collar and a ruffle on the bottom. Rin was also wearing her new pair of jeans that were flared at the bottom.
(A/N: I don't care if you like girly clothes or more gothic typed, but I imagined Rin being more cute, but she isn't going to turn preppy or whatever, because that would be…weird.)
As they all sat down at the table Rin had the feeling that someone was watching her. She turned around and she saw Sesshomaru and Inuyasha. But what surprised her was that Sesshomaru was the one staring at her.
I know, I know. All of our faithful readers want to kill us O.o Please don't!
We're very very very very sorry about the long wait. I lose inspiration and then I got stuck on a writer's block. Then months later I remember about the chapter and I forgot what it was about so I rewrote it. Please review, and once again, we're very sorry for the long wait!
