Chapter Eight: Deal

A new day! Rin moved towards the stereo machine increasing the volume; music blasting through the master bedroom and bathroom.

Wrapping the towel safely around her petite from, she continued towards the tub, mumbling along with the words.

_______________________________________________________o.o_________________________________________________________

Sesshomaru continued down the road, his music set to a low comfortable volume; his fingers tapping against the wheel gently.

______________________________________________________o.o___________________________________________________________

Rin hissed as the cold water splashed against her back. Exhaling, she rolled her shoulders slowly; the hot water slowly coming through.

_______________________________________________________o.o__________________________________________________________

He pulled up in front of his house, his mouth falling open slightly at the sight. Yet she's not happy... Turing his car off, he slowly stepped out and moved towards the front door.

______________________________________________________o.o____________________________________________________________

"It's over…" Rin continued to sing, dancing in the shower.

______________________________________________________o.o____________________________________________________________

Sesshomaru reached his front door, pulling out his key and opening the door. Shutting the door behind him, Sesshomaru immediately froze, glancing franticly at the new living room furniture in his house. Stepping further into the house, he sniffed at the air, his eyes widening at the lavender smell. What the… He rushed past the living room and took the stairs two at a time; taking a quick left and rushing down the bleach white carpeted hallway. He halted at the master bedroom door, his instincts kicking in. Shower running…? What is going on?!?!

_____________________________________________________o.o____________________________________________________________

Rin turned the shower off, wringing the water -as much as she could- from her hair. She stepped out of the tub, grabbing her towel and drying her face; walking out of the bathroom.

________________________________________________________o.o_______________________________________________________

Knowing it wasn't Kagura; Sesshomaru slowly turned the doorknob and stepped into the room coming face to face with a very familiar hostess. Everything slowed as they stared at one another. His eyes dropped down to her painted toenails and slowly traveled up her slim legs, widening as he noticed that her towel was not around her body. His eyes rushed back up to her face to see that it was red.

_________________________________________________________o.o______________________________________________________

Rin's heart jumped in her throat. She watched in embarrassment as the familiar yokai studied her form, his eyes traveling up to her face, which felt suddenly heated. She inhaled deeply, brown eyes turning to slits.

_________________________________________________________o.o_________________________________________________________

Sesshomaru cringed at the sudden sharp scream. Stumbling backwards, he quickly shut the door and rushed down the stairs, his head dizzy from it all. What the…

_______________________________________________________o.o___________________________________________________________

Rin quickly wrapped her small silk robe around her body and rushed after Sesshomaru. She stopped at the top of the stairs, watching him pace the living room.

He turned towards her, studying her hair still damp- her robe clinging to her damp body. She inhaled deeply, slowly making it down the stairs. "I'm sure you'd like an explanation." She stated making sure the glass coffee table was between her and the tall demon.

Sesshomaru nodded, golden orbs turned to slits as he watched the human woman's' every move. Rin swallowed, fidgeting with her robe sleeve. "Well you see," She began, looking up at him. "I lost my apartment, then my boss fired me, and I had no where else to go and I was so scar-"

"So you decide to find my home… So you could live in it?!"

"No no. I'm trying to explain…" Rin swallowed once more, scanning for an escape. "You put the address, remember, on the paper and... I had nowhere else to go. Please understand." Instantly, her bottom lip stuck out –quivering slightly- her eyes watering.

"Get your stuff."

"Bu-"

"Get out!"

"Pleas-"

Sesshomaru raised a hand to stop Rin from talking. He took a step, so did she. He glared at her, struggling to unclench his fists. "Please? You come into my house... Use my bathroom, sleep on my futon, and you tell me please?! PLEASE?!?!" Sesshomaru chuckled without humor, moving closer to Rin. "You…" He declared, pointing at the woman "Are the spun of Satan. Get. Out!"

Rin rushed behind the couch, staring hopelessly at Sesshomaru. "Just- okay. Give me a minute, I-I just need to… Re-Return everything to your m-mother."

Sesshomaru froze looking unbelievably at the female "What?"

Rin swallowed; slowly moving around the room. She pointed at the coffee table, mumbling softly "Your uncle" next was the couches "Your father" She slowly made her way into the dinning room Sesshomaru at her heels nodding as she pointed things out. "Your Aunty" She muttered, pointing at the dinning set. Rin circled the table, moving back into the living room- this time standing further away from the angry demon.

Sesshomaru watched her a moment, nodding still. "Is that all?" He asked through clenches teeth.

"I-I have to g-give your mother back her jewelry..."

"My moth-" Suddenly he halted, watching her small form. "And Kagura?"

Rin instantly covered her mouth moving towards the front door.

"Tell me."

"She took me out to dinner and I told her we were married!" Blurting the sentence out, Rin rushed around the coffee table, ducking from books and lamps that were coming her way. "I'm sorry, please!" She begged. Nevertheless, Sesshomaru rushed after her, yelling profanities.

Rin opened the front door and made it down a step before Sesshomaru had her around the waist, dodging her flinging arms. They stumbled down the last two steps, the purple marks on Sesshomaru's face glowing. "I'm going to kill you!"

"No please! I-I beg you!" Rin struggled to get away from him, punching and slapping at his chest but nothing helped.

He lifted her bridle style suddenly, pressing her against his chest, heading back to the house.

"Uhm..."

They both froze. Sesshomaru turned back around, still holding Rin to stare at Kagura who softly shut her car door. "Am I-"

Rin was the first to react. Slipping out of Sesshomarus' hold, she straightened her robe smiling at Kagura. "Hi!"

She greeted. Kagura glanced at the petite female, nodding slightly, before focusing her attention back on the frozen Sesshomaru. "Sessh-"

"It's good to see you again, Kagura." Rin stated, intertwining her fingers with Sesshomarus'.

Sesshomaru could only look down at the small female, unsure of what to make of the tense situation.

Kagura focused her attention on Sesshomaru; every now and then, she would glance at their laced fingers; her jaw clenching. "I saw your car... Coming up the hill so I-"

"Would you guys like something to drink?" Rin asked, looking up at Sesshomaru lovingly.

Sesshomaru could only nod, breaking eye contact with Kagura to stare down at Rin. "Sure…"

"Great!" Pushing to her tiptoes, Rin gently pressed her lips against Sesshomaru's cheek; her free arm wrapping loosely around his torso as she softly nuzzled the crock of his neck a moment before walking away smiling.

Kagura waited until Rin had shut the front door before turning back to Sesshomaru. "She's really…Something Sesshomaru." Kagura swallowed her rude comments, looking accusingly at Sesshomaru who only nodded. "I heard your family really likes her." Again, he nodded. "How was your trip? I hear it's fun… In Tokyo. I'll have to go visit there one d-day…" She swallowed, pushing dark locks out of her line of sight. She continued to watch him, uncertain of what to do next. "Do you… What I mean is... Do you lo-love her Sesshomaru?" She stopped breathing, watching him, scared of what the answer might be.

Rin stepped outside wearing simple black sweatpants and a gray tank top; carrying a tray with three glasses. "Lemonade anyone?" She giggled coming to stand by Sesshomaru.

Kagura sighed, smoothing out her skirt. "No thank you."

Sesshomaru spoke, reaching out towards Kagura before suddenly wrapping his arm around Rin's shoulder. "You sure?" Kagura nodded, glancing at her car before focusing back on the 'couple' "Yeah... I have an appointment to keep." She nodded at the two before getting back in her car and driving off.

Rin sighed, turning; she placed the tray on a step and looked back at Sesshomaru who was watching the car drive off. "She really doesn't like me." Rin mumbled studying Sesshomaru. "I suppose I should get my stuff and leave."

He turned towards Rin, his expression blank. "Wait."

She halted, looking hopefully at Sesshomaru. "Yes?"

"This might work."

Rin stared at him unsure of what he was talking about. "Huh?"

"You need a place to stay correct?" He took a step towards her, his eyes blazing.

"Correct…?" She answered, her body tingling at the intensity of his stare.

"And I need Kagura to be with me."

Rin froze looking at Sesshomaru. "You mean…"

"Keep this little… 'Couple' thing up until I get Kagura- and you can have the house."

Rin nearly chocked, she pressed a hand to her heart, studying Sesshomaru. "Lies." She stated.

"I don't lie. Help me- and I'll help you."

Rin tipped her head back some, dazing into Sesshomaru's eyes. "Deal."
