Sesshoumaru was on his way toward the hot spring Rin told him the other day. It's only ten minutes walk from the backyard, it's perfect because there's a full above the clear night sky and it is easy for him to see his path. He been through a lot lately since Rin made him do heavy work this couple of days and his muscle need some time out for awhile.
A couple of days ago after Rin made him clean the pigpen, the next day she took him fishing with her and teach him how to catch a fish using your hands. It took him a couple of hours to finally caught a fish and most of the time Rin was giggling at him from afar as she watch him having an irritated face every time the fish slip in his hands. He also laughs at himself because he only caught five fish in that day, but it was good for a beginner like him.
And today Rin brought him to the rice fields to help plants rice. So he was bending all day under the heat of the sun planting rice in the rice paddies and now his back is aching form bending.
Sesshoumaru stop from his tracks when he took the sight of a woman who make him do the thing he never do before. A few feet a way from him Rin was sitting relaxing inside the pool of hot spring with her eyes close, her hair tied up in ponytail and her pale skin flushed from the steam that surrounded the spring as the light from the lamp illuminated her form.
He was dumbstruck, he can't even move himself from his spot because his legs won't budge from the ground as his eyes is fix in her flushed face and roamed in her slender neck down to her bare shoulder and stop near her bare chest as the water cover the rest of her body.
'I wonder what the rest of her looks like.' Sesshoumaru shook his head at that thought. "Where is that come from?" he whispered surprised that he thought of her that way. He looks at her again and he has to admit he never saw anyone quite like her before.
"A woman like shouldn't be out here in the middle of the night, don't you think." he said stepping forward to make his presence
Rin snap he eyes open startled. "Sesshoumaru you sacred the hell out of Me." she yelped putting her hand in her chest. "Don't sneak up on me like that." she said relief that it was only him.
"You should be well aware of your surrounding especially when you are alone in the middle of the night and in this kind of place."
"Thanks for reminding Me." she said settling herself back in the water.
"Would you like to join me?" she invited. "The water is great it can ease you tired muscles." she informed.
"You know it not appropriate to a woman to invite a man to join her in the pool of hot spring especially in the middle of the night. He may think that you have intention for inviting him over." he stated.
"What would that be? Seducing him?" she snorted.
"May be, anything can happen in this kind of place." he replied thoughtfully.
"Give me a break…" she said rolling her eyes. "If you think that I'm going to do something to you then fine you can come back later when I finish my bath." closing her eyes enjoying the hot water.
Rin smirk when she feels that water move sign that someone is with her in the pool. "I see you decided to join me." She said her eyes close still.
"Why wasting my time waiting for you to finished, knowing that you will stay longer than expected." he said settling himself in the water.
Rin chuckled as he said that. "You guess that right."
'It's been a long time since I feel this relax.' he sigh closing his yes as the hot water soothe his muscle.
When he opens his eyes Rin also rise from the water wearing a two piece white string bikini. She has a curvy form and long smooth legs, 'so that was underneath that kimono of hers" he thought bewildered at the sight because she doesn't show too much skin and she always wears a kimono or pants.
"You not from around here are you?" He can't help himself but wonder if she is really from around the island.
"What make you say that?" she sinks back at the water with a soapy sponge in her hands.
"In what I see, you wear like you are an outsider."
"Just because I live in the middle of nowhere doesn't mean I can't wear like this."
' It make sense, just because she live in the middle of nowhere it doesn't mean she can't wear like that, right?' he thought and decided to shrug it off.
"Here… wash yourself." she said handing him a soapy sponge.
Sesshoumaru eyed her for a moment and gladly took the sponge in her hands and start washing his body.
"Do you want me to wash your back?" she offered.
Sesshoumaru raise his eyebrow and smirk "Are you sure you are not planning something on me?"
"Of course not, what would I do that? I only asked if you want me to wash your back." she said crossing her arms irritated. "Now do you want me to wash your back or not?" she asked again raising her eyebrow.
Sesshoumaru nodded.
"Now give me that sponge so I can put some soap on it." Sesshoumaru give it to her. "Now turn around." she said as she put some soap on the sponge.
"And why?" crossing his arm.
'Can he just stop asking for once?' She thought sighing. "So I can wash your back, obviously."
Sesshoumaru complied and turn around so his back facing her.
Rin slowly walk towards him and put away his silver hair in his shoulder as she washed his back, 'I never thought his hair is soft like that.' amaze and put her hands on his shoulder so she can wash his back properly.
His whole body reacts when a soft hand touches his shoulder. 'Is that her hand? It so soft.' he thought liking the feeling of her hand
A moment later the feel of her soft hand soon faded as her hands leave his shoulder. He sighs and turns around to face her.
There eyes met just like the first time they gaze at each other's eyes, but this time their faces is closer than before.
'I know see those eyes before.' Rin thought trying to remember where she saw him.
In other hand Sesshoumaru examining her face and gaze down at her lips. 'I wonder what she tastes like.'
Their gaze becomes intense that neither one of them doesn't want to avert their eyes from each other. Their mind seemed to froze, as their faces came closer and closer until…
AN: I wonder if they kiss or not, umm thinking well find out next chapter. Review and tell me what you think. See you soon…
