Lord sesshomaru’s POV

I watched Rin as she slept. Yes that may sound creepy and make me seem like a stalker, but I used to watch her when she was a child. Okay that sounds worse. I kept an eye on her to make sure that she was alright, and that she was still breathing, as she slept. There that sounds better. I lost her once, I do not wish to lose her again.

She had always seemed to have trouble breathing every now again while she slept. She seems to have gotten better.

I followed her around for the day. Watched how she did things. To see a beautiful young women. She has changed a bit. She can still act like a child at times, with all those ridiculous questions she asks. Still the same Rin. Although she seems to do a lot of things around the village, and helps Kagome and Inuyasha with Kit. She seems happy here, I couldn’t take her away from a place or the people that make her happy.

My father still continues to glare at me, although I do not know why. Does he think that I fancy a human girl. How could he possibly think that, I keep that side of me hidden. Yet he is still my father, he had always seemed to know many things about a person no matter how hard they tried to hide something. I guess me being his son only makes it easier for him to figure what is going on inside of my head. Or is it that he thinks I might kill her. The women I care for or his. I still do not care for that Izayoi much.

“mmm.”

I stopped in my thoughts hearing Rin. I brought my gaze from the window in her room to her sleeping form. She had rolled over, while groaning in the process. I watched her closely, her breathing was slow, but steady. Under her eyelids I could see movement. I grinned. She was dreaming, I hope that it the dream is peaceful. That’s when I focused on the rest of her face, she was not frowning nor was she smiling. What could she possibly be dreaming of?

I looked back out the window and up to the night sky, and closing my eyes, to rest, awaiting for the sun to rise.

Rin’s POV

I woke up to the sun in my eyes. I sat up, seeing Lord Sesshomaru sitting there, same position, same spot, same look on his face, although he was looking at me now instead of looking out the window. “Good morning Mi-Lord.

“Morning rin.”

Hey he replied to me, accomplishment. I got u and went to the front room to some tea started. Once that was done I went back to my to put my other kimono on, of course I would have to step behind my changing screen, since Lord Sesshomaru was in the room. Of course even though I was out of his site he started to get up to leave. I feared that if he left now, then I would never see him again. “Lord Sesshomaru,” my voice cracked.

“I will be outside,” and with that he walked out.

I dressed quickly rushing so that I could get back to his side. I ran out and saw him waiting for me y a big tree. I collected myself, walking over to him slowly. He turned his head to face me. “Lord Sesshomaru what would you like to do today?”

He didn’t respond, he just stood there, staring at me. “Mi-Lord?”

“Whatever it is you wish Rin.”

“Okay well I have to go see how some of the villagers are so…” “Alright, lead the way.”

That is something that you do not hear every day. Lord Sesshomaru following someone is unheard of. I walked infront of him, heading towards the other side of the village. Once I reached my destination I walked into the home. Greeted by a few family member, I walked slowly, yet confidently to the back room, where their grandmother lay. Not breathing. I figured, I could tell a few days ago that she was not going to make it for much longer.

I walked back to the living area and told the family the bad news. I was emotionless, no emotion in my voice. I had become an empty shell. The family broke out into tears, wishing to have her back, at least to hear her one more time. I apologized to them for their loss and walked out to see Lord Sesshomaru leaning against the home, waiting for me. I continued to walk not hesitating; I knew he was following behind me because I could since his ora and I could hear his foot steps.

I went back to kaede’s and walked to the side of the place I would call home for now to my little garden that I had started growing a few years ago. I started working in the garden feeling Lord Sesshomaru’s watchful gaze follow my every move. After working in my garden for a few hours I went to clean my hands. Once I was threw with that I walked to Inuyasha’s and Kagome’s; with Lord Sesshomaru not far behind me. As soon as I walked in Kit came and jumped into my arms. “Auntie Rin,” she yelled hugging me tightly with her little arms. I walked over to sit down near Kagome, with Kit in my arms, and I felt Sesshomaru sit next to me.

“Where is Inuyasha?” I asked Kagome once Kit left my arms and ran to her room to get her dolly.

“He and miroku went to go help out another village not too far from here.”

“Oh, Okay.”

I felt eyes on me and looked to Inuyasha’s parents, they were staring at me. “Hello.” I said to be polite. Izayoi said hello back, but they both continued to look at me, then to Lord Sesshomaru, then back to me. I didn’t say anything, because I did not want to be rude. I hate when people stare at me, but I want to be polite to them, I don’t want the hurt their feelings or make them think that I am not a nice person or anything bad. I finally couldn’t take it any longer “Ummm, could please stop staring at me?” I asked, speaking in a quiet voice. They both apologized and looked away.

I talked to Kagome about what happened that morning and how she was doing, then how Inuyasha was doing as well. Lord Sesshomaru just sat there quietly of course; the usual. After Kagome and I talked I stood up to lea\ve, hugging Kit and telling her bye, before I left.

I walked into the woods with Lord Sesshomaru, still following me of course. I turned around quickly on my heels “You don’t have to follow me around like a lost puppy, you know.” I thought about what I just said and seeing the look on his face, I laughed “Pun intended.” I continued to laugh, and Lord Sesshomaru started to look annoyed. I stopped laughing “I-I’m sorry mi-lord, I hadn’t snapped to what I said until after the fact, and well I thought it was a little funny, my apologizes, please forgive me,” and I bowed my head. Again he said nothing he just stood there quietly, with a blank expression as always.

“Okay my lord, could you at least say something, I mean don’t you hate being quiet all of the time?”

“Rin?”

“Yes.”

“Stop asking questions.”

That was it and he walked past me towards lady kaede’s. I followed him this time, like I did back then. Those days I miss sometimes, I talked and asked questions all I wanted and he just let me. Now its like he hates me, if so then why has he been with me the entire time he has been here. Lord Sesshomaru is just so confusing. What am I supposed to do if I get a mission, and he follows me every where I go. Well this just makes this another mission itself. Yay for challenges, everyone loves challenges, right. I think this is going to be a tough one.
