Rin placed the last dish on the table set for dinner when a knock at the door caught her attention. Her head shot up and she quickly went to smoothing out the form fitting short one shouldered black dress she was wearing before heading over to the door. Taking in a deep breath, she looked out the peep hole before pulling the door opened to reveal Sesshomaru standing there in a pair of black slacks and a crisp deep blue button down; a bouquet of roses resting in his arms.
Rin smiled before she threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around his neck causing him to drop the roses and stumble back a few feet. "Sesshomaru! I've missed you!"
Sesshomaru chuckled as he regained his composure and pulled her arms out of the death grip she had him in. "I've missed you as well, Rin." She fully let him go a few seconds later and he bent down to grab the bouquet of roses and held them out to her. "These are for you."
Rin's eyes lit up as she took them in her arms before grabbing his hand and pulling him inside. They walked over to the dining room where Sesshomaru took in the smells of the food she had cooked while brushing a stray piece of silver hair out of his face. "The food smells good."
"Thank you," Rin said as she arranged the roses in the vase in the center of the table. "I spent a while cooking."
"Hmmm, then I look forward to eating," he said as he pulled a seat out for her before heading to his own.
