Pairing Sesshoumaru and Rin

Summary Kaede pushes Sesshoumaru across another frontier with Rin
He never really intended to bring kimonos for Rin every visit. It must have been something the old miko said when he first asked her to take care of Rin while she was away. She seemed to believe that Rin needed more than the kimono she was wearing.
He could not remember where he obtained the kimono. Rin needed a kimono. The reaction of Rin to the first kimono made him her realize that he made the right choice.
She had squealed and hugged him. Most of all she had smiled and laughed as she twirled around in the kimono. Sesshoumaru was not sure if he liked being hugged, but he was sure that he wanted to make Rin happy.
Since then there had been many kimonos. Their size and shape had changed as Rin grew The latest had been the most elegant of all. It was juni-hitoe which Princess Izayoi had once found it in the same chest that he had used to clothe the No-Woman when he dressed her as Izayoi.
The girl in front of him did look like a Princess as she reached out to hug him. Kaede was indicating to Sesshoumaru that he should hug her back. His arms slowly crept around her waist.
She gasped and hugged him even harder. Kaede had to cover her mouth to keep from laughing. From now on kimonos alone would not do for Rin. She would expect to be hugged every time Sesshoumaru came to visit her.
