I OWN ANYTHING AND ALL RIGHTS GO TO THE WRITERS AND CREATORS OF THE ORIGINAL STORY! Thank you for all the reviews and suggestions! Thank you so much for all the love you guys have for this story! I thank you guys a lot (*bows*). So let's get this chapter started ^^. This chapter has a lot of fluff so there's not a lot of action.

Chapter 13

Today, Rin planned to take Yukiko shopping for clothes, toys, and other things she might need or want. Today, Rin didn't have cram classes because the other exwires went on a mission, but it was a small one so he wasn't needed. He didn't have to look out for them, so it was easier to sneak Yukiko out of the academy. Rin even took Kuro for Yukiko's saftey, just in case he wasn't there to protect her. He even took a camera to take pictures and remember the memory.

"Make sure to protect her, okay Kuro?"

"Yeah! I will Rin!"

They reached the city, and Yukiko was running around excitedly. She wanted to see everything, and go everywhere.

"Come on Rin! Over here, let's look at this!"

"Okay, okay. Calm down, we have all day."

She was dragging him from place to place, buying clothes, toys, books, and other things. Finally she reached a fountain, and she wanted to take a picture with him.

"Come on, lets take a picture here."

"Okay, stand right there and I'll take it for you."

"I want to take a picture with you Rin."

"Well, someone has to take the picture."

Yukiko looked around for a while and stopped a random person.

"Excuse me. Can you take a picture of us here?"

"Yeah sure."

"Thank you."

"See, now we can take a picture together."

"..."

She grabbed onto his arm and pulled him to the fountain, and held onto Kuro.

"Okay on three. One,two,three..."

"Thank you so much."

Rin looked at the picture and showed Yukiko too.

"Aww, you didn't smile. You should smile more Rin."

"..."

Then she took Rin to a nearby café to eat a parfait.

"Yay! Parfait!"

They sat next to the window, as Kuro and Yukiko at a parfait, while Rin drank coffee. He watched as they ate the parfait, getting whipped cream of their faces. Rin grabbed a tissue and wiped the faces, cracking a small smile.

"Ah!"

"What?"

"You smiled! You just smiled! I saw it."

"You must be seeing thing."

"Nope. I saw it! Don't deny it, cuz I saw it!"

"..."

"You should smile more Rin, you look nice smiling."

"Yeah...thanks."

As she and Kuro finished eating, they exited and walked to where they can see the sun setting. Then they walked back to the dorm, and as they were turning the corner, the exwires saw them. The exwires finished their mission and were a few feet behind them. They thought they saw a glimpse of a little girl, but they thought it was just their imagination. When they reached the dorms, Rin got Yukiko ready to sleep and they ended the day. That night, he had a nightmare that he hadn't had in a long time. It was a nightmare of the moment when Shiro died, his friends all turning his back on him, and his flames engulfing him and trying to devour him. But today, it was a little different. The silver of doubt that he kept in the back of his mind that Yukiko too might abandon him, came true in his nightmare. He watched as she left him just as the others did, scared just as the others were.


Rin was jolted awake by Yukiko shaking him.

"Are you okay Rin?"

"Y-Yeah, it's just a bad dream."

He was covered with cold sweat, heart was beating, and he was panting. He took a few moments to calm down and drank some water. They sat downstairs in the dining room, in silence.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"No, not really."

"It's better if you talk about it rather than just keeping it bottled up inside, worrying about it."

Rin thought about this, and stared at the little girl that he once saved from a demon that day after getting into a fight with some guys. He had initially expected her to be in shock and fear, but she had thanked him and followed him. He had given her a name, a place to stay, and here they were. She had been so different from all the other humans, staying by him the whole time no matter what. He wasn't overly social with her, nor overly kind to her and yet she was always smiling and happy to besides him.

"Why?"

"Why? About what?"

Rin had accidentally voiced his thoughts aloud.

"Why do you always look so happy when you see me? Why are you still beside me? Why do you accept a demon like me? Why don't you run away and look at me with fear like everyone else? Why?"

"Why? Hmm... because you're kind? You're a demon,but unlike the other demons, you are kind. Almost too kind for this world I think. Remember when you saved me from that demon? I thought I was going to die. When I saw those blue flames and saw you, of course I was scared, but I felt that you were kind and warm."

"... you really think that?"

"Yeah! Of course! I mean you took care of me and gave me a name too! I mean no one ever looked at me, a girl orphan in the streets all by herself. I was really happy when you reached your hand out to me, cuz I was always alone so it really made me happy!"

Rin stared at this seven year old girl, knowing too much for her age. She had gone through what he did, in the streets all by herself. So he decided that she should know, the only person he would ever tell about everything in his life that happened: getting into fights when he was little, being called a demon, finding out he was the Son of Satan, Shiro's death, Grigori's execution sentence, his friends leaving him, just everything that happened to him. After he was done telling her everything, there was only silence as she simply walked over to him and hugged him softly. Rin Okumura, who was known for always being happy, goofy, and an idiot, did something no one ever thought he would do. He cried, hugging Yukiko, and that facade mask that he made to hide his true emotions, finally broke.

"Thanks Yukiko." Rin whispered. He decided, that he was going to be happier and decided to end all of his bad habits (cutting, trying to die, and such).

"It's nothing. And Rin?"

"What."

"Take me to the amusement park next time okay?"

Rin smiled, "Okay."

"You promise?"

"Yeah, I promise."Rin thought to himself that she was still a kid after all.

Yay! Finished another chapter! It's short I know, but this touching part deserves to be at the end. Leave a review, and suggestions. I want to ask you guys too, if I killed Rin would you guys be okay with the end or would you want a happy ending? I'm like debating between the two. Thanks^^ literally I typed it out this time beforehand, but like always I changed it up a lot actually and made it up as I go... hehehe.
