Chapter 6: Pain

 

"Good I wouldn't have it any other way" she said.

 

Rin placed a few kisses on his lips, before Sesshoumaru pulled her up again and kissed her deeply, but it wasn't meant to be when Rin's phone went off.

 

"Let the machine get it" said Sesshoumaru.

 

Rin placed a few more kisses on his lips before she pulled away and picked up the phone.

 

"I don't like the machine." She said with a wink. "Hello?" "Hey calm down what happened?" "What?"

 

Sesshoumaru saw the way she started to shake.

 

"No I'll be there, no...he'll be ok won't he?" asked Rin. "Ok" she said before she hung up and turned.

 

"What's wrong?" asked Sesshoumaru.

 

Rin couldn't speak she just ran towards her closet pulled out her clothing, and started to dress as tears fell uncontrollably.

 

"Rin" he said.

 

Rin looked at him. "Inu-yasha is hurt," she said.

 

Sesshoumaru's face took on a look of confusion before he picked up his shirt and started to dress as well.

 

Rin looked at him. "I'm so sorry" she said before she shot out of the apartment and towards her car.

 

Sesshoumaru stood there for a moment. He was right it was nothing, she was just feeling lost and confused. She really did love his brother. He closed the door and then walked towards his own car and headed towards the hospital.

Rin ran into the floor they said that Inu-yasha was on. Sango, Miroku, and his mother greeted her.

 

"How is he?" she asked.

 

"He'll be fine" said the doctor walking out.

 

"Really?" asked Rin.

 

The doctor smiled and nodded, "You could go and see him now" said the doctor before he took Inu-yasha's mother aside to speak with her.

 

Rin walked inside and tears fell even more. Inu-yasha smiled from where he lay.

 

"You jerk!" yelled Rin.

 

"Nice to see you too" said Inu-yasha.

 

"How could you?!" she asked.

 

"I was on my way to check on you, you seemed kind of out of it at dinner" said Inu-yasha.

 

Rin sat at his side and placed her head on the arm he had on the side. "Your such a dick! You know what Kagome would have done if she came back and found out you weren't here?!"

 

"Hey I'm here, I'll always be here" said Inu-yasha running his hand through her hair.

 

"I was so worried that you died! You jerk! I would hit you right now, but your lucky that you in that bed" she said.

 

Inu-yasha smirked as he wisped away her tears, "hey you silly girl, look at me, you think I leave a beautiful girl like your sister and you just like that?"

 

Rin shook her head. Sesshoumaru arrived to find his stepmother talking to the doctor Sango and Miroku smiling in relief and Rin wasn't in sight. He walked towards the glass that looked into his brother's room, and saw Rin and Inu-yasha talking. She smiled at him and kissed his hand. Just moments before those same lips were kissing him. He knocked and walked in.

 

"Hey fluffy" said Inu-yasha.

 

"because your already in the hospital bed I won't say anything to that use of disrespect" said Sesshoumaru.

 

Rin giggled when Inu-yasha winked at her. Sesshoumaru saw the care in her eyes and just couldn't help but pull her to his side and kiss her to show his brother what happened but his self-control always got in the way of what he really wanted, so he refined from doing anything at all.

 

"Hey Rin, when I get out of this bed let's go get something to eat" said Inu-yasha.

 

"Mmhh I'll make you Ramen!" said Rin.

 

Inu-yasha smiled "Yeah and well make it a movie night!"

 

"You'll probably rent those hentai flicks" said Rin.

 

"No that's Miroku" said Sango as she and Miroku walked in.

 

"Oh yeah I forgot" said Rin.

 

"Guys I'm not all sick, I mean come on I like drama and romance too" he said.

 

"I know Inu-yasha likes Romance movies, the last one we saw got him to tears" said Rin.

 

They laughed, well all except Sesshoumaru.

 

Rin watched from the corner of her eyes as he got up and left. "Hey Inu-yasha I'll be right back ok" she said leaving his mother, Sango, and Miroku to keep him company. She found Sesshoumaru near the coffee machine. "I didn't know you drank the coffee from these places."

 

He looked at her and smiled a little. "I don't I was going to buy one for mother."

 

Rin smiled. It suddenly seemed as if they ran out of things to say. "I'm sorry, I mean about what happened, I let my head take the better off me, I'm sorry if I have offended you in any way. I mean after all we are too be family soon, and I don't want any hard feeling between us."

 

"No it's quite understandable" he said.

 

"Yes of course" she said.

 

"Well I better go check on Inu-yasha" she said.

 

"yes" he said.

 

Sesshoumaru sat in the waiting area, his mother went home to rest up, and so did Sango and Miroku. Rin how ever sat there by his side. They played games, talked, laughed, and he watched. She was there for his brother without any strings attached. Sesshoumaru sat drinking a bottle of water and thinking of those sweet little kisses that wouldn't be his. Finally after waiting hours for her to come out he went over to the room his brother was in. He watched as she made sure he was comfortable and placed a kissed on his cheek.

 

"I'll be here always as well" she said. "I made a promise and I will keep it" she said with a smile. "Don't you dare leave me and the others alone you hear me" she said. "And no more driving for you!" she said.

 

He watched as his brother smiled and opened one eye. "Rin shut up and sleep, I told I won't" he said brining their laced hand to his lips and kissing.

 

"Ok" she said.

 

What more can one do when the heart they desire belongs to someone else, and not just any person but one's own brother? Sesshoumaru walked over her sleeping form, he placed a blanket around her and looked at his brother.

 

"Good luck, though you don't need it," he said.

 

"Thanks Sesshoumaru for taking her home and keeping her safe for me" said Inu-yasha.

 

"No problem, after all I do need her for the charity fund" he said and smiled.

 

Inu-yasha nodded. Unknown to either that Rin was awake.

 

‘He needs me for the charity fund?...so tonight was...god I'm so stupid! Did he think tonight was some sort of down time with the boss?! What a loser I’m becoming!’ she thought as tears fell down. Her feelings weren’t returned at all.
