Through the well and back again

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha

A/n: I was thinking about doing a Harry Potter story because I just adore Harry Potter and I even had it posted for a bit but then, I got to thinking about it and it seems silly, seeing as how I still need to finish working on this story and the fact that I still have so much going on... As of today, I have 32 more days before I officially move into a new apartment and right now that's a big part of my life, haha... so for right now, I'm just going to stick to this and do my best to work on finishing it soon. I'm not quite sure how many chapters I want for it and I'm not really sure if this story qualifies for an 'M' rating but when I first started this I was really worried about some of the content and what not... so the rating my change back to a 'T' rating. I may just put it back to a 'T' rating for now and if any of the content changes to something more intense and I feel like it should be changed back, I'll change it back to an 'M' rating. I feel like it's fine right now. :) Anyways, please feel free to review and what not because the encouragement and friendly advice would really help keep me going a lot more. :)

Chapter 11:

Sometime in the middle of the night while she had been sleeping, it had started snowing. Rin shivered and brought her lords pelt tighter around her shoulders in a vein attempt to keep warm. Ah-Un had curled up next to her and that helped some but not by much. The snow was beautiful and mesmerizing to look at but Rin didn't much like how it chilled her right down to her bones and made her teeth chatter and eyes water. Somehow, since she knew that it was in the middle of the Summer that this had been lord Sesshoumaru's doing while trying to undo the curse that the witch had put on them. She just hoped that he was okay and that he would come back to her soon.

She missed him and his company, even though most of the time he hardly ever said anything. Just by being by her side like he always was though helped her not be lonely like she used to be when she was a child and she desperately wanted to know what he thought about her feelings towards him. She had already blurted all of hers to him and now what she wanted the most was to know how he felt about her and she also wanted to talk to him about the past that he had shown her, in a clear attempt to change her mind.

Deep down, she knew that he knew what he had done wasn't going to work. Not only that but she had already seen so much just by traveling with him over the years that by showing her the very beginning of his lifetime wasn't going to persuade her, either. She didn't know why he wanted to push her away or what had happened to make him the way he was now but Rin was determined to find out and change that.

Rin also knew that she was going to stick through the curse the witch had put on them because nothing was going to change her mind. Her feelings for him were set and not some fling that would only last a moment. She knew who she wanted to spend the rest of her life with and it was final.

Ever since they had come back from seeing the witch, Rin had also been having these strange dreams. She knew that somehow, they were connected to the witch and they were there to torment her. The dreams were made up partly of her desires and mostly all of her worst fears, like losing her lord Sesshoumaru for instance.. In the dream, she was laying curled up next to her lord and he was holding her close to his chest, looking deep into her eyes. They weren't talking but they didn't need to talk. His eyes spoke of everything he wanted to tell her and hers did the same, although just when she was about to open her mouth and say that she loved him, because it felt good to say, too he would always disappear and she would be left in darkness and loneliness.

Whenever she woke from the dream, she would be left shaking and frightened. However, she was determined not to trouble her lord with the issue but to deal with it herself as long as she could. She was confident enough about his powers that he would fix the issue in no time and the dreams would be done with. She was sure there were ways to deal with witch curses, even after the witch who placed the curse was long gone and unable to lift it that way.

She was so consumed by watching the snow fall in light flakes to the ground that she didn't know or hear when her lord had returned. Seeing him next to her made her jump and let out a little squeak of surprise and excitement. "Lord Sesshoumaru, you've returned! I'm so glad to see you back!" She couldn't help but jump up and down on the balls of her feet and was tempted to run up and hug him but thought better of that idea and just stood a few inches away to restrain herself from doing so.

His eyebrow lifted at her obvious joy at seeing him back but didn't make any comments on it. Instead, he tilted his head and said; "you don't need to worry about that witch any longer, the curse is done with and gone."

She let out a sigh of relief and thought to herself 'Now is a good time as any to mention everything, I suppose.' She squared her shoulders and began, hoping that he wouldn't get offended by anything that she was about to say but knew that it all had to be said. "Lord Sesshoumaru, I want you to know that I'm not scared or upset about what your past used to be like, in fact it makes me love you more than ever and I just want you to know that I truly do want to spend the rest of my life with you." She paused before adding, "if you'll have me that is."

For a second, she was afraid that he wouldn't say anything but then, he did and what he said made her heart soar with joy. "Do as you please and yes, if you wish it then I will have you." A second later, he was kissing her. It was something she had always dreamed would happen but didn't think it ever would. But now it was and she leaned into the kiss, smiling happily to herself. Thanks to her lord, she was no longer lonely and thanks to him, she had finally found out what it was like to truly love someone. He had set her free and she hoped that soon, she could do the same thing for him.

A/n: I'm not really sure how I feel about this chapter but really, all this story is is a bunch of fun and cheesy drama and romance, haha. Also, I know a good part of it is about how Rin travels through the well and back a lot and there will be more of that, I just thought it would be best to get down her and Lord Sesshoumaru's relationship before anything else happens. :) One other thing before I wrap this up is, I'm sorry if the ending seems a bit odd, but I've never been good at writing down endings, lol. So sorry. :( Anyways, please read and review and let me know what you think! :D
