Through the well and back again

Disclaimer: I still don't own Inuyasha...


Chapter 6:

School with lord Sesshoumaru was different, to say the very least. Rin hated to admit it to herself but it also made her kind of... well, jealous. It was hard to concentrate on her studies and pay attention in class when every girl in the building was practically throwing themselves at his feet. It was annoying but at least he was ignoring them for the most part. Despite being jealous, she also felt sorry for him. She couldn't imagine how hard it would be to sit in a room full of women who wanted you when you didn't care at all for them. She shook her head and leaned forward over her work, doing her best to complete the problems on the page and not wanting to get into trouble for staring off into space. She wondered if he was really even doing any of the work assigned to him or just glaring at it in disgust because after all, this was all human stuff and she knew very well how he felt about humans. If she was being honest with herself, which she always tried to do, she was starting to feel guilty for having asked him to come along. Yes, she wanted him to be by her side but this... it was probably torture for him to do this. 'I'll ask him to go back home when we get back to Kagome's.' She thought, sadly to herself.

"Sesshoumaru? Please escort yourself into the hallway, please." Rin blinked, feeling confused. What had just happened?

She looked over at her lord and gasped. One of the girls had gone too far and he had shoved himself away from the desk, breaking one of the legs on it because now it was laying on the floor, looking broken and sad his papers scattered all over the place.

"With pleasure." Her lord stated, standing up and leaving. Several girls squealed with delight and rushed at the door but groaned in disappointment when it slammed shut in their faces.

"Everyone, back to your seats!" The teacher smacked a ruler against the desk, trying to regain the little order he had had.

Rin stood up and started walking out herself when her teachers voice stopped her, but only for a moment. "Rin, if you walk out that door, you'll receive detention, got me?"

She turned and looked at him. "I understand sir."

Once out in the hallway with her lord, she placed a hand on his arm, not caring if it got her in trouble for it. She was risking a lot today, she knew but at the moment, she didn't really care. She just wanted to make sure he was okay. After all, she was the one who had gotten him into all of this. He looked down at her, his gaze hard and cold. A gaze that she had grown used to. In any case, it gave her the chance to look into the golden eyes that she loved. She had his purple demon marks memorized clearly and whenever she was feeling lonely or scared, she would think of them, along with his long flowing silver hair that she used to curl up in when she was a child. The memory made her smile and helped give her the courage she needed.

"My lord? I know how hard this must be for you so... why don't you go back through the well? I'm sorry I burdened you with all of this."

A heartbeat later, he finally said; "I am not leaving you here. You need to be watched."

She frowned. She had thought she had finally shown him that she could look after herself. 'Guess not.' She thought in disappointment.

"But, my l-"

"No arguments, Rin. I'm not leaving and that's my final word. Now go back to class."

She bowed, vowing to herself that the argument of him returning to their world was not over. Before she was able to open the door all the way, though she was being pulled back to him, pressed up against his strong chest and she gasped, feeling her cheeks flush and her heart race. She gripped her books to her own chest, wondering just what exactly he was doing. And why. He had never shown her this kind of intimacy since she was a child and even then, it was only to allow her to sleep close to him so that he could watch over her during the night time. She closed her eyes now, enjoying the feel of his arms around her. He turned her around to face him, resting his finger against her chin and using it to lift it up gently and he was... he was lowering his own face down to hers and her heart skipped yet another beat when she realized just exactly what he was doing and then...

"Hey! No PDA in the hall! You know the rules!" Rin jumped away from him, regretting it instantly. She looked around his body only to see the hall police walking towards them, a look of annoyance on his face. She sighed, wishing the two of them had been alone and wondering if the moment would come up again in the near future.

She gave her lord a questioning look and he nodded. She returned to the classroom and stayed behind when the bell rang in order to complete her detention, wondering what she was supposed to do during them and worrying about what her punishment would be...

Later that day...

Detention wasn't horrible. At least in the beginning. All he had her do then was write lines on the chalkboard and wipe off all the desk and make sure everything was clean and ready for the next day of class. It was exhausting work but she did it without complaint. That is, until he did something that made her very uncomfortable. He pinned her against the wall, his long black hair brushing against her cheek. She glared at him, shoving at his chest with her hands, her books dropping to the floor with a thud.

What was he doing? His eyes looked menacing and were filled with lust and something else... hate. He pressed his hands in places that made her wince and feel dirty all over. She shuddered, pushing at him harder but he was stronger than her, of course and as if reading her mind, a hand was placed forcefully against her mouth, muting any further protest she made.

"No one will here you, little girl. Everyone is gone. Now, I want you to tell me just where you came from and no lies. Otherwise, you'll be punished." He hissed, his lips pressed up against her ear.

Even though he had her pinned in every way possible, she still tried her best to struggle up against him, not liking his hands on her. However, her struggling only seemed to excite him that much more and he did things that she would never, ever forget. She squeezed her eyes closed and thought, 'Lord Sesshoumaru... help me.'

A moment later, the classroom door was thrust open with a bang and she could hear the hinges being torn away from the wall. Soon after, her teachers weight was being lifted off her and she sank to her knees on the floor, taking in deep lung-fulls of air, grateful that his filthy hand was off her mouth. She winced and shuddered in disgust at the salty taste that was still left on her lips. She needed a glass of water and a long, soaking bath. She had goosebumps all up her arms and she rubbed at them fiercely, dimly aware that she could hear her lords voice.

"If you ever touch her again, I'll kill you."

Pleading was heard now and she covered her eyes with her hand, hiding the tears that were streaming down her rosy cheeks. She had never been attacked in this way before and it disturbed her. 'I need to learn how to defend myself against men like this... I only know how to battle with demons.' She was so busy thinking of ways in how she would be able to be taught exactly this that she didn't even notice herself being lifted up into strong, familiar arms and carried out of the school.

She was asleep and tucked into bed by the time her lord had brought her safely back to Kagome's house...


Author's note: I'm thinking I'm going to make this rated M to be on the safe side... not because of any sexual scenes between these two because this story isn't going to be a lemon but because of certain scenes in it and I don't feel like getting into trouble for not having it properly rated... anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter. :D More will come soon!
