12 Days of Christmas

Gift Six

December 18, 2011

Rin was startled by tapping on the glass door of her window. She looked up to see Sango standing there, a box resting at her hip and a cup holder with two cups in it in the other hand. She stood and walked over to the door, pulling it opened for the pregnant woman and allowed her inside.

"What's in the box, Sango," Rin asked as they made their way over to the desk.

"Don't know, it came for you while you were in your meeting," Sango said placing it on the desk then pulling out one of the cups of coffee and placing it to her lips while offering the other to Rin, "Your favourite, French Vanilla Cappuccino."

"Thanks," Rin said taking the cup and placing it to her lips. After swallowing a sip, she placed it down on the desk and pulled the box towards her. "It's probably from Sesshomaru. Gift six."

"Half way through already, huh," Sango said raising a brow.

"Yeah," Rin said running a sharp pair of scissors through the tape of the box. "He sent me an iPad2 yesterday. I was so ready to kill him."

"Ha," Sango burst out laughing before placing her cup to her lips again. She took a quick sip before lowering it and looking over at Rin. "I would love for Miroku to do something like that for me. But you know how he is, still cheap as ever."

"He hasn't changed since high school, huh," Rin said placing the scissors back in the holder.

"Nope, so when is Sesshomaru supposed to be getting back from California?" Sango asked before putting her cup to her lips again.

"Saturday," Rin said pulling out an aqua blue box that read Acqua di Gioia across the top in cursive silver letters. "Hey Sango, have you ever smelled this before?"

Rin held up the box and Sango looked. She nodded, "Yeah, I have some. Miroku bought it for me for my birthday this year. It smells heavenly."

Rin turned to her computer and logged onto her e-mail.

I love the perfume and from what Sango tells me, it smells good. I'll wear it for when you come back.

XOXO,
