I do not own Inuyasha.

Where to now?

The kimono Rin had stolen wasn't quite like the ones Sesshomaru had brought her in the past. They had been pretty, but this one…

Rin fingered the silk edge that grazed across her thigh. The material felt cool and light against her skin. She wondered what Lord Sesshomaru would think of it. He had visited occasionally at the village, but his stays were brief and far between. He didn't seem to notice how much she had changed. To wear a kimono such as this, she felt, was a bit daring.

She couldn't just tell him about the way her heart fluttered whenever he turned and glanced at her. She couldn't say out loud that at night she imagined his strong arms around her, the way they had been in that cave so recently. If she went that far, she was afraid he would send her away again.

Her cheeks flushed at the thought of him seeing her in the silk garment. Rin closed her eyes and imagined Lord Sesshomaru's eyes moving slowly down her body, lingering on her subtle curves made sensuous in the clinging folds of her dress. The image made her shudder.

Entering camp, Rin saw that Jaken and Ah-Un were sleeping soundly. Lord Sesshomaru lingered by the tree line of the clearing. Rin sat down by the campfire and stroked the embers with a stick, trying to keep her mind still.

Sesshomaru saw the way the bottom edge of Rin's kimono had risen up when she sat down by the fire. It was all too easy to picture what was hidden only a few inches higher. His desires resurfaced, and he felt the now familiar, maddening heat build within him once more. He had to fight it. But how? He knew he needed her with him. But, whenever she was near, his thoughts devolved into fantasies. Never had he thought it was possible for himself to develop feelings for a human, but Rin changed that. And, what had he expected- that she would remain a child forever?

Sesshomaru paced restlessly. The motion was not characteristic of the calm demeanor that he usually presented. Sesshomaru hoped Rin would not take note of it. She must have gotten the kimono in the human village. But, why would she choose to wear something so delicate and slight to travel in? Unless… Sesshomaru stopped pacing. Rin wanted to be admired.

Rin sighed, and stretched out, staring at the low-flickering flames. It had been a long day and she thought to herself that she should really try to sleep. Closing her eyes, she almost didn't hear the footsteps approaching from behind. Sesshomaru sank down next to her, and she was surprised to feel his arm wrap itself around her waist.

Rin could feel his breath graze her ear before she heard him murmur her name. Just that was enough to cause a small moan to escape her lips.

Her smell caused his heart to beat faster, but when she moaned… Sesshomaru wasn't sure how much he could take. He lowered his lips to her neck and gently kissed her there. The tip of his tongue traced her skin teasingly. Rin shivered in pleasure, and Sesshomaru heard her whisper "Lord Sesshomaru, please don't stop…"

Rin could feel her Lord Sesshomaru growing hard, pressed tight against her back. The arm he had wrapped around her waist slid down, and his hand caressed the inside of her thigh. She moaned again and placed her hand on his, guiding it up to feel how wet he had made her. His fingers grazed her folds, then pressed between, moving rhythmically over her swollen flesh.

Usually, Sesshomaru prided himself on his self-constraint. This time, however, he had no desire to hold himself back any longer. With a low growl, he turned Rin onto her back, and positioned himself above her. Sesshomaru's lips covered Rin's in a deep kiss, his tongue pushing hard against hers. With one hand he lifted the kimono up above Rin's hips, then he worked himself free.

If her mouth had not been so occupied, Rin would have yelped from the initial pain. Sesshomaru's thrust held no hesitation, and Rin could feel herself tear. He filled her to the point she thought she would burst. Then, as she became adjusted to his size, ecstasy rolled through her.

Rin was so tight. Sesshomaru knew it had hurt when he shoved himself into her. It had felt so good, that he was almost finished by it. Now her hips were moving quickly against his. Sesshomaru had one hand tangled in Rin's hair and with the other, he thumbed a hard, perky nipple. His teeth clipped Rin's lip and she moaned louder.

Sesshomaru could taste her blood on his tongue, and his frenzy increased. The need to posses Rin overwhelmed him. He felt her back arch, driving him deeper in. Rin's body twitched as he felt her tighten and pulse. It was too much. Sesshomaru burst inside of her. Sesshomaru stayed on top of Rin, buried deep inside her core, her legs still wrapped tightly around his waist. Slowly, she caught her breath.

"Lord Sesshomaru?" She ventured.

"Yes, Rin."

"Can we do that again?"

Sesshomaru's lips met Rin's softly.
