***BONDING***

***KAGOME'S POV***

My jaw dropped at the sight of Sesshomaru's castle, it was absolutely stunning, everything was perfect not a thing out of place.

'Figures it is Sesshomaru's after all.' I thought to myself as I walked up to the gigantic building. I looked over to Sesshomaru who looked as if he was deep in thought. I sighed, this is going to be a long day.

I flinched as I felt something tugging at the sleeve of my kimono, I looked down to see Rin looking up at me with a huge smile on her face, I smiled back at her tiny form I had grown on the girl, she was too cute.

"Hey Kagome do you want to go with Rin to the gardens."

I nodded my head and said, "I would love to Rin." I watched her jump up and down happily before grabbing my sleeve again and dragging me to what I guessed was the gardens.

When we got there my eyes widened, it was beautiful, there were flowers of all different colors, sakura trees and in the dead center was a huge koi pond.

I smiled brightly as Rin lead me to the water's edge, I took a deep breath, the scents where calming my nerves.

I looked over to see Rin running over to me with a bundle of flowers. I smiled as she set them down and looked at me.

"Look at all the pretty flowers Rin brought." I giggled slightly as I looked at the flowers and got an idea.

"Hey Rin do you want me teach you how do make flower crowns."

Her eyes widened, as she nodded, "Oh please do then Rin can make flower crowns for Jakken so he doesn't smell so bad." I laughed at that, ok Rin come her I'll show you.

We spent the rest of the morning making flower crowns. I lifted my head smelling Sesshomaru I turned over to see Sesshomaru, leaning against a tree, and then is saw Rin grabbing his legs begging him to where the flower crown she made him, and to my surprise he leaned down and allowed her to place it on his head.

I smiled at this, Rin came running over to me asking if I wanted to go take a bath and I readily agreed, I was in need for a good bath, as I stood I looked over at Sesshomaru, and saw a slight smile on his face just, just for a moment then it was gone, I smiled as I allowed the existed girl lead me to the hot springs.

I sunk deeper into the heated water allowing it to sooth away my stress, I smiled as I dunked under the water, when I came up I saw Rin smiling at me, with a towel in hand.

I took it from her as I stepped out of the water and dried off my body, and slipped on my pjs and then, I smiled as Rin took my hand and guided me through the halls until we came to a door, I turned to Rin when she started talking.

"This is your room, Rin's is right next to it and Lord Sesshomaru's is on the other side goodnight Kagome."

I smiled and said back, "Goodnight Rin." I stepped into the room and gasped, it was beautiful, it was a dark blue with oak floors, it had a dresser to the right and a bed in the middle, the bed was silver with a crescent moon in the middle.

My smile widened as I set my backpack down and climbed into the massive bed, and went to sleep ending one day, ready to begin the next.
