Another SesshxRin fanfic? Don't mind if I do. Don't think I'm going to have any villains in this, mostly want to focus on the fluffiness of it all :D

I hope you guys like it! Please be sure to review/follow/fav the new story to get it going

Rin sat up in the back seat of the car, fiddling with the imaginary lint on the skirt of her dress and shifting side to side, wishing she was in workout clothes, as opposed to the get up she was wearing, and out at the gym to relieve the nervous energy that was building up inside of her.

The limo she was in was rather ostentatious. She would have preferred to have driven herself to her cousin's wedding, but unfortunately Kagome was a bit of a pushover when it came to her fiance's family (meaning she was a huge pushover to her future mother in law and was always agreeing to whatever the woman said), which was how Rin came to be sitting in the back of a limo, all by herself, being driven to a wedding out in the middle of nowhere.

Instead, she could have been driving herself, which would have worked wonders when she departed the reception early, which had been her plan from the beginning. As much as she wanted to spend her evening, night and breakfast with a compound full of different demons, she would rather pass. As in, hard pass. Rin would have rather shaved her head of it's long raven colored locks, tattooed her cream colored face and pierced her downstairs as opposed to spending her time with demons.

Not just demons, but the most high maintenance of demons. The family Kagome was marrying into was arrogant, way too wealthy and had a strong dislike for most humans, which made it entirely ridiculous that her cousin Kagome had even been considered as a suitable daughter for the clan, let alone the fact that she had been in training to become a priestess before she fell in love with a demon and decided to marry him. Not just any priestess, but a high priestess that would have been in charge of eradicating wayward demons who threatened human kind.

Rin still had no idea how this had happened, mostly because she and Kagome had lost touch over the years, both of them choosing different paths in life. Where Kagome had chosen to follow a righteous path, Rin had become an expert swordsman, a craft she considered lost on many, and also a writer. The writing was her actual profession, although she would have probably made a kick ass samurai if she had been born into a previous era.

Not that she knew of many female samurai warriors, but eh. She could have been the exception. Or pulled a Mulan and paraded around as a man who didn't know how to actually behave like a man.

Leaning back in her seat, Rin closed her eyes and tried to focus on some sort of meditation, even though she was in a moving vehicle. Deep breath in. Deep breath out. Count to three. Repeat. Focus on nothing other than the sounds of the breaths as they come in and leave. Be tranquil like an undisturbed body of water.

Her car door was pulled open abruptly, startling Rin into snapping open her eyes and staring up at the human driver who had picked her up that morning. Rin smiled nicely at the older gentleman and took the proffered hand, allowing him to help her exit the vehicle. Her silver stilettos sunk slightly into the gravel driveway and she quickly grabbed her clutch as well as the overnight bag that had been beside her during her journey. Smoothing the pleated skirt that came down just below her knees, Rin looked down at her watch quickly, noting that she must have been meditating for well over an hour before the car stopped.

At least it had helped calm her down.

"Miss, I can take your bag up to your room. The guests are all waiting in the foyer before being moved to the greenhouse for the ceremony. Reception will take place in the ballroom in a separate section of the grounds. I will escort you to the foyer to keep you from getting lost as you have only just arrived."

Without waiting for an answer, the driver plopped the overnight bag from her grip and began walking up the immense marble front steps, not even glancing at the large columns that held intricate carvings of what appeared to be some sort of battle. The last columns, one on each end of the final step, closest to the doorways were carved into figures of two men who looked to be almost identical. Both had fierce, stern expressions on their faces. Interesting facial markings as well. Crescent moon tattoos on their foreheads and some sort of stripes on either sides of their faces. In the carvings, both mean wore traditional Japanese garb, each with their own sets of swords hooked to scabbards on their waists.

She sucked in a breath at the columns, feeling some sort of odd fluttering in her stomach at one of the images in particular before she shook her head and continued up the steps, her shoes making a soft clacking noise as she followed the driver through the large front door.

Immediately she heard voices echoing throughout the large hall, seeming to be coming from the closed double doors on the right side of the room. The driver ushered her forward before he placed a hand on the door knob and twisted, pulling it open and nodding his head to the side, clearly a silent invitation for Rin to step into the room.

Trepidation filled her at the prospect of making the acquaintance of anyone who might have lurked inside of that room. Squaring her shoulders and smoothing the skirt once more, Rin stepped forward and entered the room, wanting to look around for potential enemies. Instead, she pasted a small smile on her face and kept her eyes forward, hoping like hell she ran into her aunt and uncle. Maybe her other cousin would be present as well?

"Oh Rin! You're here. How lovely," and just like that, Rin was once again in the presence of her aunt Helen, the older woman beaming happily at her. "You look so lovely, Rin! It's hard to believe the last time I saw you, you were just growing in a new set of front teeth!" Aunt Helen grabbed Rin's hand and twirled her about like she did when Rin had been small. The movement caused the skirt of her dress to fan out around her momentarily before she stopped the movement and smiled childishly at her aunt. "And your dress! Darling, you look like a million bucks!"

Rin couldn't help but smile at her aunt. It was true that the dress had cost a lot, but she had also worn it for the release party of her first book, a little over two years ago. It was a satin dress, with a sweetheart neckline, the straps were made of Swarovski crystals. The waistline was high, to help accentuate her curves, also with a Swarovski crystal belt that was sown into the waistline. After the crystals, the dress fanned out a little into the skirt, which came to right above her knees, pleated, because Rin enjoyed the freedom of movement.

Also because she had a knife strapped to her inner thigh incase there were any unpleasant situations in her future. Her shoes were the most expensive object on her, which might have been shocking because they were plain compared to the rest of her outfit. But they were also designer, and also very pricey. She wore a Tiffany's watch with a white leather band (a gift from her editor when her book had sold over a million copies) as well as small diamond earrings that were easily noticeable due to the hairstyle she had done for the wedding. Her hair had been curled and wrapped around to frame the left side of her face, hiding a small birthmark she was always self conscious about.

"You look as beautiful as ever, aunt Helen!" And with that they continued with small talk for a few more minutes before her aunt grabbed her hand and let out a happy shriek.

"Oh! You have to meet the new family! They will just be thrilled that you could show up! They felt so bad when they learned how little relatives Kagome has, you know." And her aunt began dragging her with more force than she would have thought the woman capable, out of the foyer and into the main hall. She took a sharp turn up a grand stair case and once they reached the top, took a quick turn to the left, urging Rin on along the expensive carpet.

The young woman didn't even have time to marvel at the riches and splendors that littered the private section of the house, only feeling slightly horrified that they were no doubt encroaching on someone else's private life.

"Shouldn't we wait downstairs, maybe? I mean, this seems rather intrusive."

"Nonsense! We are family now. You should consider this your home too, Rin!"

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

It most certainly was not her home. And it wasn't her aunt's home either. As far as Rin was aware, Kagome had only known her fiancé for a few short months, definitely not enough time for her aunt to feel at home traipsing around the grounds.

Another turn and they came to a closed door.

As far as Rin was concerned, a closed door in a house full of guests generally meant 'do not disturb'. Without even a moment's hesitation, Rin's aunt knocked on the door with more force than necessary, considering they shouldn't have knocked at all.

The door opened almost as instant later, a middle aged woman answering with a smile and ushering them both inside without even the slightest of snarls.

Definitely not something Rin would have expected from a demon.

"Oh! Is this the lady we have been hearing so much about? Oh, Helen! She's even more lovely than you described." Looking at Rin directly, the woman smiled. "You are truly a beauty. It's almost hard to believe you and Kagome aren't closer in bloodline than cousins." And with that, the woman embraced Rin warmly, before stepping back and clearing her throat. "How silly of me! My name is Izayoi! I am Inuyasha's mother. Have you met the groom yet?" At the shake of Rin's head and Helen's adamant denial, Izayoi grabbed Rin's watch clad wrist and tugged her through another door that connected the room they were currently in with another, hollering for everyone to be decent as company was coming through.

Feeling more out of sorts than ever, Rin followed begrudgingly, wondering she should be keeping her eyes closed in case she saw anything she shouldn't have. Like the exposed body of her cousin's future husband.

"Feh. Mom, would you lay off already? You're making more nervous than the actual wedding is." The snarly reply came from one of the three men in the room. It was easy to see that they were all related, given the matching silver hair, all incredibly long, the same height and the striking physical resemblance to one another.

Rin's attention was quickly pulled to the demon that was speaking to his mother in a godawful tone. Rin's eye almost twitched when she caught sight of his ears. Which looked like they belonged on a dog, and were sitting on top of his head. Almost as if they could sense Rin's eyes, one of the ears twitched. She smiled widely before she could stop herself.

No wonder Kagome wanted to marry him. How adorable were those ears?!

"I want you to meet Kagome's cousin. This is Rin. Rin, this is Inuyasha Taisho, the man who has given his heart to Kagome."

Inuyasha snorted before adding some finishing touches on his black tuxedo. He stepped forward and reached his hand out to Rin, shaking it gently and quickly before letting go. "I wouldn't say I gave my heart to her. More like she beat me over the head with a baseball bat before I finally relented and shared my feelings. She's a bit of a ballbuster."

It was Rin's turn to snort at that, quickly covering the sound with a delicate cough that she covered with her hand. She leaned forward to share a secret. "You have no idea. One time we got into an argument over how best to build a fort in her bedroom. She was absolutely convinced the type of bedsheets would directly correlate with the integrity of Fort Higurashi and expose us to outside threats. We fought over sheet types for so long it was eventually time to go home and we never actually built a fort."

"What can I say? I guess I love a woman in charge." And with that Inuyasha winked a Rin before clearing his throat and gesturing to the other men in the room, who had remained silent since she entered. "This here is my father, Lord Inu Taisho." Rin nodded her head respectfully to the stoic demon who had made no attempt to shake her hand. She didn't take it personally. She read that most full blooded demons were very closed off and reacted poorly to any type of affection or personal contact. Knowing this, Rin didn't want to make the situation uncomfortable by extending her hand in greeting only to be rebuffed. Talk about embarrassing.

She took a closer look at the older demon and smiled when she realized how she knew him. "Oh, you were one of the sculptures built into the columns out front. It's a very impressive likeness, sir."

The demon smiled slightly. "Thank you, my dear. Although I have to say, the photo on the back of your book does little to convey how truly breathtaking you are in person." She smiled awkwardly.

"You've read one of my books?" She didn't think demons would be into human literature, especially a period romance involving overbearing Scottish lords who fell in love with tough, yet vulnerable damsels who always ended up reluctantly in distress.

"Izayoi is a huge fan. I admit, I did read the first one as she was so taken with the series. I can see why it was a number one best seller for so long. Did I also hear rumors of it making the big screen?"

Rin blushed, a bit taken aback that the head of the family had obviously done his homework. "Yes, sir. I actually just got back yesterday from signing over the rights to the first book. It's going to begin pre production in a few months. I have even been given a say in the script and the acting selection, to try and make sure it lives up to the book."

"Such wonderful news, Rin! Why didn't you mention anything?" Aunt Helen piped up from behind her, causing Rin to turn a chagrinned expression to her relative.

"It just didn't seem like the time since it's Kagome's weekend and all. Didn't want to take the spotlight off of her." Considering Kagome was probably the ultimate bridezilla, if the fort was anything to go by.

"Nonsense!"

The only other person in the room who hadn't spoken stepped forward from his previously shadowed location, drawing Rin's eye where he hadn't before. She sucked in a deep breath once their eyes met, the strangest sensation overpowering her. She recognized him from the other column that had captivated her outside. He looked just as stern as he had in the sculpture, just as hard and disciplined. Only something about him seemed very familiar.

His hair was long, straight and silver, just like that of his relatives. He had a crescent moon symbol on his forehead, like the column, and two markings on either side of his cheeks. His ears, unlike his brothers, seemed mostly human, although they did have pointed ends. For a brief moment she was almost disappointed that she wouldn't be able to play with this man's ears like Kagome undoubtedly did with Inuyasha's. As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Rin blushed a deep crimson when their eyes met.

Why on earth was she thinking about touching this demon at all? Oh God. She never should have come upstairs with her overbearing aunt.

"Uh, this is my half brother, Sesshomaru."

"Lord Sesshomaru." The demon said, barely conveying any interest in the conversation.

"Oh, my apologies. Lord Sesshomaru. How silly of me to have forgotten your damn title." Inuyasha rolled his eyes before stepping away from the Rin and Sesshomaru and joining the others across the room in their conversation.

As they continued their awkward stare, Rin finally broke the silence and cleared her throat gently before speaking. "This probably sounds weird, but have we met before? You seem very familiar." Even as she said it, Rin knew she hadn't met him. At least, she felt she would have remembered meeting such a man. Or seeing him from a distance. He was quite unforgettable. And a demon. It wasn't like there were tons of them in the city she currently resided in.

"I don't usually make acquaintances with humans of any ilk, let alone those born without rank of some sort." The tone was dry, but the words stung like ice. Not one to generally let others criticize her, Rin tried to hide the hurt that flashed across her eyes briefly at the veiled insult. For whatever reason, his dismissal of her as anyone made her want to fling herself onto a chaise lounge and weep dramatically, much like one of the heroines from her books might have. Instead, she arched a perfectly sculpted eyebrow and smiled sweetly.

"Are you so old you're hard of hearing, dog demon? Your father just said I'm a number one ranked international best seller. How's that for rank?" Without waiting for some sort of asshat remark, Rin turned on her fancy heels and promptly slipped on a black tie that was lying on the ground.

Only an 'eep' of dismay escaped her mouth before she fell backwards and right into the demon she had been intent on being rid of. His clawed hands encircled her upper arms, steadying her before she collided right into him and caused a huge scene. She felt a shock where his skin touched hers before some sort of heat rushed into her body, almost as if had been hit by some sort of electrical current.

Rin wasn't sure if she leapt out of his arms or she shoved her away once the heat encircled her. She turned back to face the demon, expecting to see some sort of startled expression on his face. Instead, it remained stoic, which she was beginning to feel was his just his face. Did the demon ever smile?

"Did you..." Feel that? What the hell was that? Instead, Rin narrowed her eyes and wanted to groan aloud. She doubted anything demonic had happened. It was probably just a shock of electricity from when she slipped on the tie. Friction and things and all that. Definitely not demonic. "Oh never mind. You're still a big jerk." And for her second attempt at a grand exit, Rin made sure to strut, albeit very carefully, back to her aunt and new relatives, very glad when no one else seemed to notice the incident that had just occurred.

Thank God for small favors.

The wedding took place within the next two hours, which couldn't have come soon enough for Rin. She escaped the upstairs room as quickly as she could before wandering around to find some sort of waitstaff that could escort her to her room for a few minutes to herself.

Rin felt scatter brained, unfocused. It wasn't something she was used to feeling, especially at the hands of some male. She was a grown woman, for heaven sakes. Not only that, she wrote about men ALL the time in her books, fan fiction, and whatever else she wrote in. It wasn't like she was unaware or out of practice dealing with good looking men who thought they could talk down to the little woman. Granted, she hadn't been attracted to any of those men, nor had those men been demons.

Perhaps she was just unsettled because he was beautiful and a demon. She had been expecting a family that resembled ogres or gremlins. Not someone right out of a fantasy. Or a nightmare, considering how intimidating he was.

That's probably it, Rin rationalized to herself. No way she had been attracted to that imbecile.

Once Rin had collected herself, also known as hiding until the ceremony was ready to begin, Rin made her way back downstairs and across a wing of the manor until she reached the room all the guests were still mingling in.

After that, Rin had followed Aunt Helen and Uncle Joe to the greenhouse located only a quarter of a mile from the main manor. Luckily there had been some sort of golf cart train thing to drive them there, otherwise her Jimmy Choo's no doubt would have sank into the dirt countless times and probably have been ruined. Just because they cost a fortune did not make them durable. It was such a pity when you thought about it.

Seated at the front row with her aunt and uncle, Rin made sure to smile and wave at Inuyasha who was waiting at the end of the aisle and to completely ignore his half brother. It was probably her imagination, but she could almost feel piercing gold eyes watching her from precisely his direction.

She knew it had to have been her imagination. She was human after all and she was well aware that he didn't mingle with humans.

Such an ass.

Oh, perhaps he could be the inspiration for the main villain in her next book. Lord knew she was having a hell of a hard time finding inspiration to write anything nowadays anyway. Hard to come up with something new and exciting when all she wrote about were Scottish Highlanders wooing the frightened damsel.

Maybe she could write about a sexy demon lord who fell in love and married a commoner.

Obviously Lord Doucheface wouldn't be the sexy demon lord. No way. He would be the fire breathing dragon that was slain by the end of the book, causing the entire village to rejoice at his demise. Yes, that would work quite nicely.

The music began to play and shortly after there was a small gasp from the crowd when Kagome began walking down the aisle. Rin teared up slightly at the radiating smile her cousin wore as she focused on reaching Inuyasha. It was like she didn't even realize there was a large crowd gathered to watch their union take place. Her eyes were only on one individual. Rin smiled, happy that her cousin was so lucky to have found someone she cared for so much in such a short period of time.

Rin didn't think she could ever settle down with someone, let alone marry him after literally three months of dating. How did one really know the other person after such a short time? Could anyone truly know another individual so quickly? Rin didn't think so, no matter how often she wrote about it. Writing it and believing it were two different things as far as she was concerned.

Rin kept her eyes on the happy couple through the exchanging of vows and rings, all the while feeling eyes focused on her through the entire ceremony. Once the couple were announced as man and wife, they locked into a loving embraced and kissed before everyone to make it official.

It was during that time Rin convinced herself to look at Sesshomaru to get the silly notion out of her head that he was watching her. She knew she was just being paranoid. Up until she looked over to him from across the stage and made eye contact. Her eyes widened and her mouth slightly parted at the intensity of his gaze, almost as if he were scrutinizing her for whatever reason. Not that he needed one, being the jerk that he was.

After a few moments he looked away from her and she immediately felt more at ease, the tension leaving her shoulders and also the sensation of being watched.

He had been watching her!

But for what? Why would he? It didn't make sense.

Back at the reception hall, the party was in full swing. Rin had already given a happy congratulations to the new bride and groom, even taking twenty minutes up from Inuyasha to reconnect with Kagome, who had insisted she sit at the wedding party table, even though she wasn't technically a part of it. Some poor groomsmen had been booted from the table without any sort of preamble.

Rin had felt bad but the demon took it in stride, immediately flirting with a demoness who had been sitting next to Rin's assigned seat.

Another hour passed after the food had been served, the group all talking animatedly aside from the two lords of the family, who were more content to sit back and remain silent throughout the evening. Rin didn't mind in the slightest, still feeling entirely too on edge with the demon seated on the other side of the long table.

Kagome and Inuyasha got up to begin their first dance as a married couple. After the first song a demon tapped Rin on the shoulder. He had ears a lot like Sesshomaru's and looked distinctly wolf like, if she could describe a man as such.

He introduced himself as Kouga, smiling cockily down at her when asking if she would like to dance.

Not waiting another second, Rin took his hand and let him lead her out onto the dance floor while a slow song played for them. For all of his sly behavior, Kouga was a bit of a horrific dancer, nearly stepping on Rin's toes at least six times when all they really had to do was sway back and forth. Unfortunately for her shoes, he had tried overly hard to impress her, leading to one depressing scuff mark on a pair of shoes she had cherished for well over a year.

Smiling politely, Rin decided to return to her seat after their dance, declining his invite for a second dance when it was mentioned. Halfway back to her seat, a man with black hair and a gold hooped earring appeared, whisking her back to the dance floor without so much as a word. She found out after their first upbeat dance that his name was Miroku and he was currently trying to make the woman he had come to the wedding with jealous.

"I've been trying to get her to date me for years, but she thinks I'm too much of a leacher and always turns me down."

"Well, you are trying to make her jealous by dancing with a single woman at a wedding. Probably not the brightest idea to let her know you're serious about her." Not that Rin cared too much. She knew she wasn't going to try anything with Miroku and she knew he wasn't interested in her either. He was a handsome fellow, but Rin had never been interested in chasing after a taken man, whether it was officially or otherwise.

Having been cheated on before, Rin knew that was never a path she would take to cause unknown damage in someone's life. Not to mention that for whatever reason, Miroku just didn't do anything for her, which was weird, because physically speaking, he was generally the type of man she dated.

Oh well.

Kagome sizzled up to them on the dance floor, smiling sheepishly at the two of them. "Oh nice! I see you've met one of my best friends!" Rin smiled enthusiastically at Kagome's happiness. The bride turned to her cousin and smiled at her in embarrassment. "Do you think you could help me to the ladies room? This dress is a nightmare to deal with and I've had one too many glasses of champagne to risk doing this on my own."

"Yeah, definitely."

"So it looks like you're having a good time," Kagome mentioned casually as Rin was enveloped in the skirt of the other woman's wedding dress. Literally enveloped. She had bits of train in her face, some sort of under tulle that made the princess cut dress full after the waist, and man, it was scratchy. How the hell did Kagome wear this comfortably? It was only on her arms and she felt like she was going to break out into hives at any second.

"Yeah, it's been great. I mean, I was a little wary at first, you know, with the whole demon thing. And then meeting Inuyasha's brother was about ten levels outside of my comfort zone. But I'm really glad I came!"

"Sesshomaru is a little unsettling, isn't he? I swear I've only heard the guy talk on about 5 occasions."

"Yeah, he told me that he doesn't associate with humans, especially those without rank. Annnnd I might have called him a jerk."

Kagome snapped her head up from her position on the toilet seat, jaw dropping open. "You didn't."

"Yeah, kind of did."

"No way!"

"Yeah. I mean, what happened after made me feel super stupid, but I sure called him a jerk." Rin's cheeks heated at the memory.

"Oh, I smell some sort of juicy secret. Tell me everything!" And with that, Rin rehashed the story, including her line about being a ranked best seller, slipping on a tie and falling right into his arms.

"Oh, it's just like a romantic comedy!" Kagome gushed, flushing the toilet and stepping forward so that Rin could untangle herself from the web of fabric that had ensnared her.

Snorting at Kagome's comment, Rin carefully rearranged the back of Kagome's underskirt tulle thingy and then fluffed down the rest of her dress, making sure nothing was wrinkled.

"What's romantic about that? The guy was super rude. He probably only caught me because I was plummeting into his general direction and he didn't want to wrinkle his tux."

"No, Sesshomaru isn't that kind of person." Kagome fluffed her hair and rubbed her lips together to make sure her lipstick was still intact. "He probably just would have stepped back and let you fall."

"Wow, well then I guess that jerk statement was right on point."

Kagome shrugged before stepping out of the room. Rin followed and stopped abruptly when she noticed Inuyasha and Sesshomaru lingering outside the doorway. "You two weren't eavesdropping, were you?" Kagome asked Inuyasha with a skeptical tone of voice.

"Nope." "Yes." Were both of the replies that came from the two demons. Both of them turned heads and looked at one another before shrugging indifferently and looking back at Kagome. Inuyasha looked chagrinned. Sesshomaru looked indifferent.

"We just came back to escort you to the table. You know I don't like being without you for so long." Inuyasha grumbled unhappily before laying a kiss on Kagome, the two embracing rather noisily right outside the doorway.

Rin grimaced at the display of affection, realizing Sesshomaru had an equal disgusted look on his face, if the curling of his upper lip was any indication. Rin grinned at the demon while he wasn't looking, but made sure her expression was carefully neutral by the time he looked back in her direction.

"I guess we'll just leave this two alone," she muttered before coming up to the nightmare of a dress skirt, trying in vain to worm around the thing and leave the bathroom. After another minute of trying to pry the dress out of her escape route without interrupting the couple making out heavily next to them, Rin threw up her hands in exasperation.

"Come." Sesshomaru called before turning to leave.

"Hello? I am trying. I can't help it if I could fall into this wedding skirt and disappear for three weeks before someone eventually found me trapped in it at the dry cleaners. Could you assist?"

Sighing heavily, Sesshomaru turned around, pushing the skirt further into the bathroom and reaching over it. Both of his hands grabbed her waist and plucked her quickly from the bathroom, her body resting flush against his as he moved them away from the couple and back toward the reception hall. Her feet dangled off the floor a few seconds before Sesshomaru stopped and set her down gently before moving away from her. She felt bereft at the loss of contact, but couldn't explain why, which worried her.

Maybe it had been too long since she'd taken a lover. She was probably starved for physical contact of any sort.

"We should get back to the reception. People will begin to wonder if we are missing for too long." Didn't want to ruin that lordly reputation?

"By all means, lead the way." Sesshomaru grabbed Rin's hand, his fingers wrapping around hers as he led her back to the crowded ballroom. Her heart raced at the touch, eyes locked on their interlocked fingers as he walked at a steady pace. Before they could reach the entrance, Sesshomaru turned and wrapped his body around hers, startling her even further.

Standing there in shock, Rin squeaked out a breathy, "What are you doing?!" before trying to push him off of her. Well, she kind of tried. Her hands went to his chest to shove him away, but all she ended up doing was wrapping her hands around the lapels of his tuxedo jacket. Was he trying to hug her or something? It didn't seem intimate. More like he was conducting some sort of clinical experiment. After an awkward second of no movement, Sesshomaru rubbed his hands over her exposed upper back, her arms and her sides before pulling away from her, once he had touched any and all exposed surface of skin that was considered decent. She let her hands fall to her sides before glaring at the demon and stomping her foot at him, hands resting on her hips with whatever anger she could manage.

Mostly all she felt was confusion. "Are you going to answer the question?" She asked hotly.

"No."

Rin's mouth dropped open at Sesshomaru's audacity. "You're joking. You don't just manhandle someone and then not tell them why!"

"You will not dance with another suitor this evening." And with that, Sesshomaru turned on his heel and entered the ballroom, leaving her to stand alone on the outskirts of the party, wondering what on earth had just happened.

Silly Sesshy!
