Making you happier than myself

Chapter 4
Sesshomaru POV

After the delicious food, they were all engaged in their conversation and I was engaged in my own thoughts. They might discover my real identity...but I haven't really lied to them...I haven't really done anything wrong. True, I lost control but I am not known to be one who controls his anger. My attention was averted back to what was happening, when Kohaku waved his hand in front of my face. As soon as I snapped back into reality, I saw the beautiful lights, which danced around the car: blue, purple, red and pink. I looked outside wondering what happened, but realized it was pitch black. Then all of a sudden the sunlight blinded me and I covered my eyes with my hand.
"We're here guys," called out a voice from the front seat.
Sango and Rin opened the doors and they all jumped out happily. Then they all ran out to the, now visible, green field filled with flowers. I curiously watched them as I stepped out of the car, into this colourful meadow. There was a shallow ditch at edge of the meadow. The grass was thick and lush grass, growing in dense tussocks. The oak tree provided sun-flecked shade, a cool and refreshing respite from the mid-summer sun. The white umbrellas of cow parsley were becoming brown. The rutted track, once boggy was mud hardened and cracked. The meadow lay peaceful in the thickening light of late afternoon. A soft breeze ruffled the white petals around me, in some sort of pattern. In awe, I turned around and saw little pink butterflies lazily flitting around the lush grass and dipping their tiny feet into a clear, bubbling brook.

"Come on, Maru-chan," Rin said as she grabbed my hand and pulled me along as she ran on and on and on. They all stopped and sat down in a circle at the very edge of this cliff and stared out to the horizon. It was sunset. However, they were still talking about their own lives as they sat, not paying much attention to the beauty ahead. As if they have seen it a hundred times before. I sat on the long green grass and watched with an unwavering gaze, as a fiery red orb of light slowly sank beneath the horizon, and threads of light lingered in the sky, mingling with the rolling clouds, dyeing the heavens first orange, then red, then dark blue, until all that was left of the sunset was a chalky mauve, and then that melted away in turn as stygian darkness took over the sky. Sequin-silver stars like the glowing embers of a dying fire winked down at me, illuminating the atramentous curtain of sky. I smiled as the time ticked by slowly and the stars twinkled with the bright moonlight shinning down onto us.

This wonderful experience made my eyes feel heavy and my heart flutter and before I knew it I had fallen into a deep sleep...

Rin POV
I looked to my left a found tired Yamaru sleeping on the grass, as the warm breeze slightly scattered his silver hair around him. His legs and arms were outstretched and torn shirt was unbuttoned, showing his well-toned abs. He seems to be very quite. It makes him seem quite mysterious...as if there is a certain barrier around him. It feels like I know him though. If feels like we have a strong bond...a long lost bond. I really wonder what this strange feeling is.

I looked over to the others and said, "It's getting late guys." They nodded and yawned.
"Kohaku and Shippo can you two help Rin get Yamaru in?" asked Sango. She just knows what I need help in.
I smiled at her and assisted my two good friends to take Maru-chan home with me.

We climbed up the hill carrying Yamaru into a spare room. He is so injured. I wonder what happened to cause so much injuries. I slowly took his clothes of to see that most of the wounds were healing already, so I simply cleaned the wounds and returned to my room.

He reminds me of Maru-chan, but Maru-chan used to smile a lot when he was younger. He was so cheerful when he was with me, but Yamaru is different...he looks similar to Maru, yet different. He is in fact very similar to Sesshomaru Taisho, only the fact that Sesshomaru didn't have silver hair...well, that's until that concert when he turned into a demon. My parents were demon too...they were very loving and so was Maru-chan's family...but I lost all of them. Maru-chan moved away a week before the accident and I lost my family...my brothers...my parents. Since, then Kaede has been great help to me. Oh yes! Kaede will be returning tomorrow...I wonder how I will explain this handsome silver haired, golden eyed creature in the room next to me...

The next morning...
Sesshomaru POV

The sunlight shone from the window and I woke up suddenly,"Where am I?" I looked around and saw that I was in a large traditional Japanese room, with the walls and floor made out of wood and the slide doors. In one corner of the room there was a shelf with a few books and on the other side a dusty mirror and that was pretty all there was in the room...and the futon I was sleeping on. I took a deep breath and smelt the sweet scent of Rin. This must be Rin's house.

I stood up and stretched. Then I slowly walked towards the door and slide it open. The sunlight over took my sight and I saw a large area in the middle of the house. It had a well, surrounded with ankle levelled water with small white lotuses. As I walked around I realized this wasn't a house, but an old shrine.

"I see that you're awake, Yamaru," said Rin, from behind me.

"What time is it?" I asked in a sleepy monotone voice.

"It is nine in the morning. Do want something to eat?"

"Later...where's the bathroom? I need a shower."

"Go straight and take a right. I've already went out and brought you a toothbrush, a towel and a set of clothes. There." She said, handing me a plastic bag.

"Thank you."

A/N: I'm not leaving you guys on much of a cliff hanger. Sorry I didn't update any sooner. I thought I should have a break from writing for a while...but I love you guys so I'll be finishing of a few on my stories and writing more new ones. Bye, bye guys. 3
