Chapter 3.

Please review.


Sesshomaru's POV.

"I'm sorry." I whispered.

"There's nothing to be sorry about." She said back shyly, blushing a little.

She looked up at me, her looking so innocent.

I wanted to hug her so bad after that. I was angry at my self and my assignment.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

She was about to remove my bangs from my eyes when I slapped her hand away. I looked down and she was shocked, I saw sadness in her eyes.

"Lord Sesshomaru." she said softly and a little confused.

I had no choice but to hurt her. I did a fake grin.

"Your really easy to fool."

Whenever Crystal was upset she always held her hands to her chest and look down. That's what she was doing right now. Her dark red hair was on her right leg. The breeze went through our hair and their was silence. I looked down at her waiting for her to yell or hit me. But when I noticed a tear fall from her face. She looked like a tiny helpless child. Droplets of tears started streaming down her cheeks.

She finally said, "I'm sorry to bother you Lord Sesshomaru, I shall be going now." her voice was so shy and soft as she wiped her eyes when she took off her glasses.

"Then go." I spat out.

She flinched and ran off.

I should have known she wouldn't lay a hand on me or yell at me. Crystal would hurt a living soul, she was really shy, sweet, and innocent. I feel really terrible.


Crystal's POV.

I finally made it to my room. My vision was blurry because of the tears in my eyes and my cheeks were soaked, it was more blurry when I took my glasses off and put them on my nightstand. My heart ached as I laid on my bed, I pulled up my blanket to chest and began crying softly so that none of the maids can hear me out in the hall.

Why was I feeling so much pain?

Crystal never dated or loved a guy other than as a friend before. But Lord Sesshomaru was different. He sometimes got her out of her shy zone, his mysterious atmosphere gave her a bit of excitement. But every time he was near her, she mostly had this desire's of holding her and and doing romantic related things. When he kissed her it felt like a dream. Now her heart was crushed and the only conclusion to why so feels so much pain was that she had fallen in love with Sesshomaru. The tears came harder and she finally dozed off into a heavy sleep.


Sesshomaru's POV.

It was the middle of the night and I couldn't sleep, which I really wasn't that tired. I walked around the castle grounds until I came across Crystal's balcony. I hear nothing, it's really quiet. She must have fallen asleep hours ago.

Did she cried herself to sleep? If she did it's my fault.

I jumped onto her balcony. I could see in the dark perfectly. I opened her shoji leading into her room. She cuddled her pillow and her blanket had slid below her waist. She was shaking a little because it was chilly. I walked over and placed her blanket above her chest gently. Her eyes were puffy from crying and her pillow was a little damp. She cried herself to sleep. I hated myself for making her cry. I sat on the bed next to her sleeping form. I quietly ran my left hand through her hair.


Crystal's POV.

I felt someone's hand run through my hair. I knew it had to be Sesshomaru. I stayed still so he can continue. I felt warmth from his touch.

"I'm sorry." He whispered and sighed a little.

As he got up, I knew he was about to leave, so I grabbed his left arm. He turned and looked at me with his everyday look. Tears started to well up in my eyes again and fell down my cheeks. He walked back towards my bed. I reached for my glasses on my nightstand to see him better.

"I'm sorry, I-i-i didn't mean to grab you like that...I...I" I said shyly and nervously.

I put my hands on my glasses. I felt his arms go around me. I laid my head on his chest, still crying. He gently kissed my forehead and said, "Don't say sorry, you have done nothing wrong, I have."

He started rubbing my back to soothe me.
