"Rin! Where are you going, now?" asked the village elder.

"Just to the field. I wanted to pick some more flowers."

"Oh. . . all right. . .be careful ok?" we don't need you getting hurt and that demon of yours to kill every one of us.

"I will." They can't sense him. . .but I know he's close today.

When Rin was turned eleven Lord Sesshomaru left her with a village that was just close enough for him to keep an eye on her. He left her there with no reason nor a goodbye. She is eighteen now and everyday since then she went out to the field and waited for Sesshomaru to take her back under his care. But every night she would return to the village. Once and a while she would swear that she saw him standing in front of the trees, but when she looked again he was gone. That's what drove her to come back everyday, hoping that she'll see more than a glimpse of him.

Today was one of those days were she could sense that he was close. . .real close. But then he disappeared… a song came to her mind. A song that Kagome taught her to sing. Se even gave her a recording of it and a 'disk man' to listen to it with, so she could sing along. Every month Kagome and InuYasha would visit and bring her 'batteries' and a new recording, incase the one she had was scratched.

She took out the 'disk man', set it down and played the song. Turning it up so she hear it.

She knelt down and looked threw the flowers. She sang along. Her voice matching the one in the song.

Feels like I'm standing in a timeless dream
Of light mists and pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Touching discovering you

memories of the days she spent with her Lord went threw her mind.

Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me
Miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared in the heat of the afternoon
Out of the stillness soft spoken words
Say say it again

She stood up, started to move her arms to the music over her head and her feet to the rhythm.

I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you

She made hand movements to the words.

I love you always forever

She brought her hands to her heart.
Near and far closer together

Squeezed her arms together and then on far she threw them out ward and spun.
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you

she brought her arms down to her sides and swayed to the music…

You've got the most unbelievable gold eyes I've ever seen

She slowly sawed her way to the ground
You've got me almost melting away

She layed down on the ground
As we lay there under a blue sky with pure white stars
Exotic sweetness a magical time

She ran her hands up her body and threw her arms in the air
Say say it again

She jumped up…

I love you always forever

She pointed at the trees and drew her hands to her heart.
Near and far closer together

On far she threw her arms out and spun…
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you

I love you always forever

She pointed at the trees and drew her hands to her heart.
Near and far closer together

On far she threw her arms out and spun…
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
from the trees Sesshomaru could see his charge dancing and singing at the song InuYasha told him about the last time he saw him. He could see Rin dancing as she did when she was eight…he could also see that she was not the same girl he left seven years ago…he stood there hidden in the trees watching her…

She spun faster jumping every so often

Say you'll always love me forever
Never stop never for whatever
Near or far and always and everywhere and everything
Say you'll always love me forever
Never stop never for whatever
Near or far and always and everywhere and everything

Say you'll always love me forever she fell to her knees pretending to plead to someone
Never stop never for whatever
Near or far and always and everywhere and everything she threw her arms out
Say you'll always love me forever she went on her hands and pleaded even more
Never stop never for whatever
Near or far and always and everywhere and everything

For the rest of the song she continued her dance, unknowing that her Lord was watching her dance.

As he was watching her dance memories of her when she was with him came to mind. He could see clearer now since she was closer to the trees that she changed into a beautiful woman from a little girl. But she still had a lot of her child ness in her. He smiled again as he saw he spinning. He missed how she would smile at him… the way she would hide behind his legs when she was scared or in danger.

"Rin…"he whispered. She started laughing when the song was over but she never stopped spinning. Then she fell in to the grass laughing as hard, maybe even harder.

"how I've missed that…"he was shocked by what he said. Have I… Lord Sesshomaru fallen in love with a mortal girl?

Rin bolted straight up…she felt his presence…clearer this time than any other. Which meant he was closer… much closer.

Her actions caught him from his thoughts.

She turned lowly towards his outline in front of the trees. She would see him before but only for an instant. And he would only show him self for that instant… but this time it was different, he didn't leave.

"lord Sesshomaru…" she whispered. She stood up.

He watched her get up and move toward him… she definitely wasn't the eleven year old that he left… but now the innovator of his dreams.

She ran to him and hugged him…never wanting to let him go…afraid that he might leave her again.

"lord Sesshomaru why? Why did you leave Rin! Why did you leave me with these humans! Didn't you want Rin anymore! She spoke into his shoulder.

He stroke her hair her words hitting him hard… of course he wanted her why wouldn't he…but that's why he had to send her away…

"Rin…I'm sorry…they…it wouldn't have been safe for you…if you were to stay with me…"

"but…" she looked up at him "…Rin is always safe with Sesshomaru…why wouldn't I be? You always protected me.."

"I didn't want you to get hurt…" he held her closer to him. "I won't do it again…I promise…" he lent down and kissed her. If only there was a way for you to be able to stay with me and not get hurt………WAIT!… they pulled away and he held her closer. I could turn her… but would she want that…

My Disclamer...i own nothing not even my sanity...Na-NA owns that... and Donna Lewis owns the song I just used it for insperation…Thanks!
