Chapter 15!
Eternity Awaits you!
Rin was never so excited in her life! Speaking of life, it was never going to end! She was at that perfect age too. She was now 19 and full of life! Seeing as she was never going to age, who knows how many children she and Sesshomaru would have!
She had to slow down on those thoughts though, after all, it's not like they wouldn't have any time to think that topic over.
Aside from being 3 month pregnant and planning her wedding, she was kind of bored at times. She missed swinging Sangotsu around, doing that usually passed the time when she was bored. She also sometimes feared the thought of being ballooned up on her wedding day. Swollen ankles and a bad back wouldn't be a really romantic evening after wards. Rin wasn't going to let those thoughts ruin her day! It was almost a week before her wedding and the village was ecstatic!
"A little to the left." "Uh like this?" "No, a little more." There was Rin directing the lecherous monk we all know to hang up decorations. It was going to be a small wedding, seeing as the couple decided to save most of their money for the children they were about to have. "How is this?"
"Oh that's perfect!" "I hope so, my back is killing me!" Rin laughed and made a rather snide comment, she was hanging around with her future husband too much as it would seem. "Well maybe your getting old Master Miroku." the monk grunted softly but let out a sarcastic chuckle. "Ha-ha, maybe."
Rin smiled and cracked her back in agony. She then let out a sigh of boredom and sat on a wooden chair, yawning quietly to herself. The monk came down and sat beside Rin. "What seems to be troubling you?"
Rin sighed, then answered. "I am bored, there is nothing for a pregnant women to do around here. I am too in pain to do chores, I am too in pain to swing Sangotsu around, and I cant even hang simple decorations without my back throwing out." Miroku smiled and pointed to his awkwardly shy four year old son Mihow. He had his mothers face, but he carried Miroku's features. Such as his ears, and nose. The child was very shy around most people and only spoke to his siblings and parents. He was like his mother in a lot of ways. He was out going, but shy and quiet mostly.
"Why don't you take Mihow to the market? He has been dying to go, but I have been really busy lately with the twins. I am sure he wouldn't mind your company, seeing as you are going to be a mother yourself."
Rin nodded, she wouldn't mind getting some experience in before the real deal with her own children. Plus, she knew Sesshomaru was watching in the distance, so she wanted to show him that she could take care of his pups. "I'd be delighted."
"Great, Mihow my boy." "Yes father?" the boy answered, awkwardly walking over to his fathers side. Miroku smiled and pointed to Rin. "This is that nice lady I was talking to you about. I know you wanted to go to the market this week, Rin wants to take you." the boys face lit up in happiness.
"Really?!"
"Yeah, she would be happy to." the boy looked up at Rin with the biggest and cutest smile she had ever seen. Rin smiled and knelt down to the boys level. "Were going to have lots of fun ok?" she said with a smile, followed by a wink. The boy nodded and took her hand. "Yeah! Lets go! I wanna get something pretty for Momma." Rin smiled then willingly went with the boy to the market place. She was loving the idea of little ones already.
Down by the market place, Rin sensed Sesshomaru's presence, but ignored and let him watch her skills with children. "Okay Mihow, what does your mother like?" Mihow pondered his thoughts… "Hmmm, oh! I know! She likes pretty things. She likes colourful pretty things." "Okay, lets find something colourful and pretty." after fifteen minutes, they found something beautiful beyond compare.
A stunning gold and purple scarf, followed by a orange centre. The scarf was hand made, Mihow wanted it. "Wow! Momma would love that!" Rin smiled and paid for the scarf with her allowance Sesshomaru gave her. Rin was a caring selfless woman, she was going to be a perfect mother. "Lets go, I want to give it to her right away!" "Okay okay, slow down, the man still has to wrap it." "Here ya are, enjoy." "Oh wow! Lets go!" "Ha-ha, I'm coming."
Rins boredom faded, as she spent time with Mihow and the rest of the group all day long. She couldn't wait for a family to have of her own.
Later that night at the hut, Rins usual evening back pain emerged, as she tossed and turned on the futon. Kaede awoke from her slumber and put some extra pillows under Rins back. "Ye back really ailing you child?"
"Yes, I am carrying two beings after all." "Yes, twins can be hard I heard. Try to relax, tomorrow is another day."
"Yes Miss Kaede." the old miko smiled and went on her own futon, drifting back into slumber. Rin smiled, as she felt her youki on the edge of the futon. "Lord Sesshomaru, I missed you all day, where did you disappear to?" she joked, knowing that the youki was well aware of her skills being able to sense him.
"You do not have to call me that anymore." Sesshomaru said, embracing Rins belly into his arms, as if he was already cradling the un born pups. He rested his forehead on her chest, hearing the soothing beat of his mikos heart. "What should I call you then?" she said, confused. He smiled and whispered in his womens ear. "Call me your love, I would love to hear it every day , for the rest of eternity." Rin blushed, she was still shy from such affections, even if she wasn't a virgin anymore.
"Ok, my love." she said, blushing horrendously. Sesshomaru laughed softly under his breath. " I cannot wait until our pups are out, I miss your warmth."
She missed his warmth too, it had been over 4 months since they made love, and they were both getting ansey. "I-, I miss you as well." she said, still flustered at her youki's comment. She cuddled up closely to the youki and sighed. She rested her forehead on his shoulder, having her face deep in his ball of fur.
"Mmm." she sighed, breathing in his smell. The youki smirked and laid down on the futon, taking the mother of his pups with him. "My love, what are you doing?" "You need rest, sleep." she smiled. "I cannot wait to spent the rest of my living days with you.' she said, cuddling up. The youki smiled and pulled her close. " I share your impatience my love, I share it well. Now, sleep." Rin nodded and let her exhaustion take over her, as she drifted into slumber, with Sesshomaru drifting off right behind her. As their wedding approached , Eternity awaited them both. They could not wait to be together, and they could not wait for the birth of their two children, which un beknwnset to Sesshomaru, would be his pride and joy.
