Before everyone freaks out. Hear me out.

I'm rewriting this story. I'm going to keep the same premise but there are going to be many plot changes.

I feel like every time I write a chapter I'm getting away from what I want the story to be, and I really liked the original idea because I've never seen anything like it on this website. I just thought it was new and different and I really wanted to pursue it, but I totally lost it.

I do feel really bad because recently there have been new readers and now I'm throwing them on the roller coaster that is my writing.

I cannot continue to write the story as it is or I will die. It's not working for me.

It's not fair for my loyal readers too. You guys deserve the best story, and right now, I don't feel like I'm giving it to you.

Lucky for you guys the summer is coming up so I will have more free time than usual unless I work more.

Updates will be more frequent until I have to go to school again.

Anyway, on with the kinda new story.

"Wow I got in," he said in a bit of shock, though if anyone else were around, he would feign arrogance. He was the top of his class, handsome, smart, and all around badass. But it was very competitive and a challenge for international students to make it into an American university on the first try, and somehow, he got into one of the best. He liked to think it was from his own merit and not his name, but even he had to admit that may have helped his chances. No matter what, the piece of paper held the pathway to his next part of life, something he craved. He needed power and he needed to get out of this country as soon as possible.

His sharp ears heard footsteps walking to his room, detaching him from his thoughts. He quickly crumbled the paper in his pocket and turned to his computer.

"Sesshomaru," his father's voice boomed, "I'm not happy."

His father was never happy, not with him anyway, "Enlighten me as to why, Father."

"Don't you dare use that tone with me, you ungrateful child," he threw the folder that he was holding at his son and commanded, "Open it."

Sesshomaru sighed but opened it up anyway, only to cringe at what he saw, an incidence report, "It's not what it looks like."

"They found drugs in your locker," his father snarled, "Again."

There was no hiding that, "I-"

"You are out of control," his Father interrupted, "You sleep around, don't come home until the morning, and now you've been caught twice with drugs. Not even weed, Sesshomaru. They found heroin. HEROIN."

Sesshomaru slid back in his chair, unable to avoid anything his father was saying, "If you continue this disgraceful behavior, I fear that Inuyasha and Izayoi will not be safe living with you."

"So that's what it's about, right?," Sesshomaru said, "It's always about them. Your slut mate and your half-breed mistake. That's what it's all about."

"Don't you dare-"

"Don't dare what, Father? Their presence makes my skin crawl. I hate them, and I hate you for weakening yourself by fucking a human."

His father wasted no time before clocking his son in his jaw with his fist. Sesshomaru tumbled backward in pain, not expecting the blow that came from the man who was supposed to be loving, "After what you said, you are nothing to me, Sesshomaru."

"I've never been anything to you," he spat back at his Father.

His father continued, ignoring his son's statement, "You have destroyed my house with your disgusting parties, you have soiled my bed with the whores you fuck every night, and you have insulted my wife and son, your brother. Get out.

Without a word, Sesshomaru began to pack up his things. All he needed to do was graduate, take out his deposit for school, figure out his finances, and get the fuck out of here. His father stood and watched him and saw a piece of crumpled paper fall from his son's pocket. He picked it up without permission and attempted to read it before Sesshomaru snatched it away from him.

"I'm never coming back," Sesshomaru said.

"You're my son," Inu no Taisho replied, "You will come back when you admit to your wrongs."

"I'm not your son. I'm nothing to you, remember?," the angry demon snapped back.

He managed to live on the land for a few days before dropping his deposit into the school he so desperately wanted to go to.

He graduated, gave his speech, and left the country all in the same day. He booked a hotel with his savings account and transferred all of his information to an America bank. The process was grueling, but worth it in the end.

He needed a place to stay for the summer, but had little to no contacts except for an old friend who he had no idea if he was even in the state he himself was in.

It was stressful, but honestly, he would rather live on the streets than go back to the terrible house he dreaded to call home.

After three days of staying in a hotel, Sesshomaru knew it was time for him to swallow his pride and call.

"Hello?," a voice answered.

"Is this Gabe?"

"It is and who is this?"

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes before replying, "Sesshomaru."

"Sesshomaru. As in Sesshomaru Taisho? My best friend from when I was 4?"

"Who else do you know that is named Sesshomaru, Gabriel?," Sesshomaru huffed.

"Holy crap, man," he laughed, "Why are you calling me?"

"I'm in America and my living situation has been compromised," Sesshomaru forced himself to say.

"Are you saying you want to live with me?," his friend said with a sarcastic satisfaction.

"If possible…"

"Well if you're in Boston, I have my own apartment, but college is coming up?"

"I have a feeling we will be attending the same school," Sesshomaru replied while searching through his friend's Facebook, showing that his alma matter would be the prestigious Boston Institute of Technology.*

"No way…"

"Seems so-"

"Where are you? I'm getting you now. This is awesome! We can be roommates," Gabe quickly spoke, cutting his friend off.

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes, but did appreciate his friend, "Thanks. I'm at the Hilton."

"Sweet," he replied, "Be there in a few."

Sesshomaru sighed in relief. At least he had a place to stay now. And he had known Gabe through business interactions, and despite being too cheerful, he was a nice guy and got along with him.

Soon he was dropping off his bags at the door of Gabe's apartment.

"You're an only child, yet you have an apartment without your parents and they pay for it?"

"Yeah," he said, "They moved to Cali and I wanted to stay here for my last year of high school, so they got me this."

Sesshomaru fought the urge to make a back handed remark, "Sounds nice."

"It is," he replied, "Mostly because girls can some and stay."

"That sounds extremely nice," Sesshomaru said with a smirk.

"You bet your ass it is," he laughed, "I've brought home older women too. It's been great. They think you're mature because you have your own apartment, but you're really not."

Sesshomaru chuckled, "Well I'm glad you're getting laid."

"It's all that matters."

"A truer statement has never been said," Sesshomaru said while walking to the fridge and opening up a beer that would be his first of many.

And then life happened. Two years came and went.

Gabe and Sesshomaru became really close friends. Sesshomaru would never admit it, but he was happy to have a friend with him, someone who actually cared about him. Gabe introduced him to American sports, baseball and football being the ones that Sesshomaru was most interested in. Additionally, in the winter the two would head up with some teammates to stay at Gabe's parents' condo in Vermont, where they would snowboard and meet more women.

He got a job too, more like multiple jobs. I guess you can say he started to live the American Dream of working hard and accomplishing his goals.

He worked in landscaping over the summer and then worked as an EMT during the school year. Though it was tough at times, Sesshomaru handed his work with grace. He liked the job experience and they both paid good money.

He even became a citizen of the United States after two years of schooling.

Even though he was successful and hardworking, he still had faults. Namely, he took too many drugs and he couldn't keep it in his pants, leading him to the situation he just woke up to.

"Good morning," a squeaky voice beside him called out.

He woke up in a daze. He must have gotten shitfaced the night before, "Ummm g'morning."

"Would you like some breakfast?"

He looked around the room, he was definitely by in his dorm, "That won't be necessary. I have to go but I had fun, ummm?"

"Maria," the girl answered.

"Right, Maria," he said while getting out of bed and buckling his pants, "I seriously have to go though."

"But wait! I thought we could spend the day together?"

Sesshomaru's eyes widened. He knew he got a crazy one, "Look Marisa…"

"Maria!," she screeched.

"Maria. I have things I have to do and you were great but this won't happen again," he said harshly while booking it out of there as fast as possible, only to end up in the middle of a campus at a woman's college?

He didn't know where he was and that did not help his cause, but it was a Saturday, so he would be fine to explore this part of the city for awhile.

He walked along the streets of the city, going no where in particular. He passed by shops and passed the time. He noticed couples, many demons, some humans, but rarely a mix of the two. Even in America, it was a bit taboo to be with a human. It was one of those things where on the media and in law, it was accepted, but people still didn't think it was the best thing. Kinda like interracial and gay couples. If you were in a gay, interracial, human-demon relationship, you were most likely ostracized.

He became detached from these thoughts by a sudden feeling, a pull almost, no an instinct, that told him to turn his body and look across the street. When he couldn't see what his body ached for, he decided to walk with the gravitational pull. His mind was wondering what was going on, but his body doing all the work.

He continued to walk close and closer towards this little café where a small, yet curvy girl was hustling around waiting on tables. She seemed to be focused on the task at hand.

Well she was focused on the task at hand, until she saw beautiful amber eyes staring at her.

At first she was taken aback by the gorgeous man, but then she began to feel something. She felt like he was there for a reason, and that reason was her.

"Excuse me miss," a customer said, "Rin was it?"

Rin immediately broke the contact with the mysterious man to help her customer, "Yes I'm sorry, what can I get for you?"

"Just a coffee refill," the man replied.

"No problem," she said with a smile but looked up to see the that the man had disappeared, "I'll get that right away."

She scanned the area around that cafe to see if the man had moved somewhere else, but she couldn't find him, and for reasons unknown to her, she felt a bit disappointed.

*I obviously know that the real college is MIT. But since I'm redoing this, I want everything to be original.

Please don't hate me.

Also please review. I really want your thoughts.
