Rin kept swinging her to each of the chair's arms. Today was her day off and so far, she was pretty bored.
"Rin could you stop that? It's getting annoying…" her grandmother said.
"I can't help it. It's weird that I don't have anything to do." Rin said.
"Why don't you write more songs in your little notebook?"
"I can't. Sesshomaru still has it."
"Then go pay him a visit. It's rather rude for a gentleman to take a lady's property without her consent."
"I think I will. Thanks grandma!" Rin said, giving the old woman a hug.
"Oh, before I forget…." The old woman handed an envelope to Rin.
"You're mother wrote this a year before you were born. It would kill your father's pride if he found out that I kept it from the others your mother destroyed. I think you might win her favor of your career choice with this. Treat it well." her grandmother said, then she went to the back of her apartment.
"Hm…" Rin said. She took the envelope and went out.
Rin took a peak into the window of the music studio. There he was, still at his desk.
"Does the guy ever take a break? I swear, he never has a day off…" Rin said to herself she quietly opened the door.
Sesshomaru tore through the notebook. Rin seemed to have a lot of time on her hands to write all these songs. A lot of them were good for dance mixes, but near the back, there were some that were suppose to be ballads.
"Oh…Sesshomaru…"
He jumped from surprise. Rin glared at him.
"Any chance of getting my notebook back, or do you like going thought people's private things." Rin said.
"As far as I'm aware of, your songs are making you a big hit right now…" Sesshomaru said coldly to her as he turned his eyes back to the book. Rin snapped it shut.
"That's it, Workaholic… you're going out with me!" Rin said. Then she realized what she said.
"Not romantically. I meant going out as just friends, acquaintances, having a good old time!" Rin quickly added.
Sesshomaru just gave Rin a look.
"Quit looking at me like that and come on!" Rin said, tugging at his sleeve and they were out of the door.
"RIN-CHAN! What a surprise!" a guy around the same age as Rin shouted, as Rin walked into the small karaoke bar. Sesshomaru followed not far behind.
"Hi Shippo- kun!" Rin said cheerfully.
"Now why would a big time star like you be doing in such a small run down place like this?" Shippo asked.
"Come on! You know as well as I do that I used to sing here all the time. My first staging experience."
"Aw… Rin you remembered." Shippo said, putting a hand over his heart. "Who's your friend?"
"Oh right! Shippo- Kun, it is my music director, Takahashi Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru- San, this is my friend Kitsune Shippo."
"Nice to meet you." Shippo said, reaching his hand out for a hand shake. Sesshomaru didn't respond.
"Oh! You upgraded!?" Rin said, spotting the new karaoke machine.
"Yup. Why don't you try it out?" Shippo said.
"I don't know. It's my day off and all…" Rin said innocently, but placed her yen in and picked a song.
The music started to boom through the small room. Sesshomaru wanted to cover his ears from the loud noised, but didn't when Rin started singing.
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
o-o-o-oh
Mamma mia,
here I go again
My my
, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia,
does it show again?
My my,
just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.
Rin got so into her song that she forgotten that anyone else was in the room. Everyone else, who was just lodging about, watched her in awe. They were regulars in the place and knew Rin before she became famous. They were prepared to help her and her music manager make an escape when a storm of fan broke in.
I've been angry and sad about things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you we're through
And when you go,
when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything,
o-o-o-oh
Mamma mia,
here I go again
My my,
how can I resist you?
Mamma mia,
does it show again?
My my,
just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go.
Sesshomaru stared at Rin in awe, like always when she stepped up and sing.
Perhaps she could make my dream come true before the time comes… he thought to himself.
Mamma mia,
here I go again
My my,
how can I resist you?
Mamma mia,
does it show again?
My my,
just how much I've missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why
did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go
A bunch of Fan people began to storm the place.
"BoA- Chan!!!" the fans screamed. Already, people were already out of their chairs and cleared a way for Rin and Sesshomaru to get away.
"Rin- Chan! This way! Shippo said, pointing towards an emergency exit. Rin pulled Sesshomaru's arm and ran for the exit.
"Oh my god! That was fun!" Rin said.
"I fail to see the amusement in that." Sesshomaru said, as he took another bite of the soba noodles that Rin bought.
"Come on. You should have seen the look on your face!" Rin said. She smiled. "I even have a photo of it on my phone if you want to see."
"No thanks…"
Rin checked her watch. 4:55. they have been out for about four hours now. After they escaped the flooded karaoke club, they went to the amusement park, where she and Sesshomaru played a few games and rode on a few rides. Luckily, it was one of those days when hardly anyone was there so they didn't have to worry about being attacked by fans.
"Thanks…" Rin said suddenly. Sesshomaru looked up.
"For what?"
"For spending the day with me. I'm happy that I made you come with me. It makes me happy to see you out and about rather than bury yourself with all that work!" Rin replied.
"What exactly are you busy doing anyway? It can't be all music you're doing."
Sesshomaru just gave Rin a look. Why was she trying to pry into his business? Though he had to admit, he had the most fun in a really long time.
"I actually don't know why I always kept myself busy," Sesshomaru said. Rin stopped slurping her noodles and looked at Sesshomaru.
"I guess I just wanted to keep myself useful."
"Hey! You are useful!" Rin blurted. Sesshomaru stared at Rin.
"I mean, you gave me my start as an idol, composed all the music to my songs, and now, you're like my… hm… help me find the word here…"
"Traveling companion?"
"That'll work for now…" Rin said.
Sesshomaru wrapped an arm around her, much to Rin surprise.
"We should have more days like this more often…" he said. Rin sighed.
"You really need to get out more…" she said…
Hikaru- San: I thought I should add a little fluff here! Things seem to be looking good for Rin so far. But what secret is Sesshy hiding from her. OMG I just realized that I made him open up more! (Squeals) It's amazing what Mama Mia does to a person. Yup, I had Rin do a karaoke rendition of Mama Mia, by A Teens. Hey! It was the only way to make her sing something that wasn't BoA. Now, what could it have been that Rin's grandmother gave her? Well, you're just going to have to wait and see…
