Hey guys I finally picked back up this story I've got a few good ideas that I think I'm going to do. Happy reading!
Rin threw on the first pair of pants she found and an old t-shirt and flew out of her room she hobbled on one foot as she put on her mismatched socks and old sneakers.
She rushed by the kitchen and thanked the maids again for watching Kyou. She flew by Kyou, only pausing to kiss his forehead, and ran out the door.
She waved as she approached the car. She was so giddy, Kohaku had asked her on a second date after the other night. She pulled open the door and hopped in the passenger's seat. "Hey!"
Kohaku smiled at her, "hey!" She gave him a hug.
She pulled back and began to babble when she noticed him looking her up and down. "What is it?" She looked down to see if she had a stain on her shirt like she always seemed to have.
"Nothing it's just- never mind." He smiled nervously and she cocked her head curiously.
"What is it? You can tell me." She reached out and held his arm.
He laughed nervously, "it's just- you look like a tornado hit you or something." He rubbed the back of his neck as she glanced down at her outfit. She looked in the rearview mirror at her hair and lack of makeup. She frowned when she remembered that she didn't even brush her hair before she came out. She blushed and hugged her waist. "Do you always dress like this? I mean it's okay i was just curious."
She looked down at her chest, she saw a bleach stain on the t-shirt and her eyes misted, "yeah, i do." She grabbed the door handle and got out. "I'm sorry i have to go." She whispered as she walked back up the stairs.
After a few hours she was less upset. She was helping Kyou read when Sesshomaru got home. She smiled when he walked in and waved. He nodded his head and went directly up the stairs. A maid followed closely behind picked up his discarded jacket and tie and scuttled up the stairs to bring him his whiskey. Rin looked down at her clothes while Kyou was distracted. She had changed clothes into something she thought was much nicer.
She had been able to salvage most things in her bedroom, as it hadn't been affected by the fire. That included all her clothes. She had appreciated the clothes Sesshomaru had given her but they just weren't her style. But after her date with Kohaku, she had tried on everything in the closet. She was now wearing some sort of designer skater girl dress that was lined with velvet. It itched and she felt uncomfortable. But she told herself she would never be around a man again underdressed. 'I wonder if Sesshomaru noticed.' She figured he didn't so she decided to use Kyou as a weapon.
She did this often to have an excuse to talk to him, "uncle Sesshomaru didn't get a hello Kyou, you should go tell him." Kyou beamed and ran up the stairs. She waited patiently a few moments before she heard him just like always call her name. She giggled at his frustration and walked up the steps.
She peeked into the room before she knocked. Kyou was sitting on the floor chatting away. Sesshomaru's face showed clear displeasure at his nephew's appearance, "yes?" She finally entered the room.
He scowled at her, "you know exactly what." She tried to swallow a giggle.
"Kyou why don't you go tell Ms. Debra what you want for supper?" His head snapped up to meet hers and he smiled again before running out the room. She smiled to herself, kids were so easily distracted.
"Stop doing that if you would like to speak to me just come in here." She blushed when she realized she had been found out. He didn't look up from his computer, and she took it as a sign to leave.
"Sorry." She muttered as she turned to leave.
"You look uncomfortable." She stopped curious as to what he had to say.
She tried to act nonchalant, "oh I'm not uncomfortable!"
"You don't have to wear the clothes i purchased if you do not like them." He turned to her and she moved closer to his desk. He was wearing reading glasses and she couldn't deny how sexy he looked with them hanging on the bridge of his nose.
"I do like them..." She ran her hands over the dress. He seemed to drop it and she sighed in relief. She heard Kyou call her name and she dismissed herself.
Sesshomaru watched as she left the room and thought about what he had said. She had looked very nice in her red dress, it hugged her lovely bodice and chest and flowed out around her pale thighs. He figured that was why he picked it in the first place. But there was something about it that didn't go with Rin. He watched as she walked, she was stiff, and the boots she was wearing obviously caused her discomfort. He thought about her in her normal clothes. It was usually grey jogging pants and a college t-shirt with some hideous tennis shoes. He definitely could not imagine bringing her on a nice date dressed like that. But he thought it looked nice around the house. 'It makes her look relaxed and like she feels at home here.' His conscious told him. He shrugged and just decided to agree and continued his work.
He had a terrible day to say the least. He'd had to shut down the whole company temporarily to disperse the riot that was forming outside of the building. People claimed he was sucking the money out of other businesses and that he only cared about the rich. Most of their accusations were correct but he was still angry that they would form outside of his building. He was quick to put the protesters in cuffs and had them taken away when they began to get violent with his employees. So here he sat, finally getting some work done at seven in the evening. He scrolled through hundreds of emails and began thinking frustrated thoughts. 'I have a beautiful woman downstairs i could be spending my time with and I'm doing this shit.' He turned the power off and slid back his chair. He stretched and stood up. He thought about Rin again being weird about wearing her normal clothes and smiled.
Rin gaped when she saw Sesshomaru walk down for dinner. His hair was pulled into a high ponytail and he was wearing only sweat pants. He sat across from her at the table and took a sip of his tea. "Where's all your clothes Mr. Business man?" She questioned, she had never seen him look so homey since she knew him.
"This is my house and when I'm at home i like to dress in comfortable clothing. As should you." She smiled nervously and grinned.
After dinner Rin grabbed Kyou's hand and rushed him off to his room. She slipped him into his own pair of sweatpants and took his shirt off. She herself changed into some loose sweatpants and a baggy white t-shirt.
She walked back into the living room and sat down on the couch. "Why don't you come watch a movie with us? It can be a sweatpants party!" She saw him smile from the dining room as he stood and walked into the living room. She licked her lips as he walked. His sweatpants were hanging loosely on his hips and she could see his small happy trail.
He sat down on the couch somewhat reluctantly and looked at Kyou nervously, "what are we watching?" He asked him and Kyou ran to him to show him the movie case.
He read it slowly, "Captain America."
Sesshomaru smiled as Rin cooed over his good reading. He enjoyed seeing the smile on her face he realized. She had a beautiful smile. He watched the boy climb into her lap to watch the movie. His floor was covered in blocks and books and pillows. He looked around, the house was still the same, it just felt warmer.
