Did it really happen? Rin only had to open her eyes to realize that it really did. Sesshoumaru still lay on top of her. Like her child. Her fingers were tangled in his hair. She caressed it back. Revealing his face. His mouth slightly open, sleeping peacefully. He asked if she would stay forever. Rin smiled at the thought. Childish it sounded before. A wish so far like the stars in heaven. But….
it truly happened. She would stay, forever.
She stared longer at his calm face, stroking it from time to time, tracing his purple stripes. Sesshoumaru awoke slowly. Opening his golden eyes. He was sleepy. The first time Rin saw him in such a state.
"Rin." Was the first thing he said. "Let´s go home."
She smiled, yes, that sounds good.
After getting ready. Sesshoumaru walked ahead of her like he always did and she followed. Lost in some of her giddy thoughts. She didn't realize that he had stopped walking until she bumped into him.
"Sesshoumaru-sama?" She asked holding his sleeves. "What´s wrong?"
He pulled her small hand in his, then he started walking again.
He opened his eyes feeling the small gentle strokes of her hand. When he pulled himself off her, he couldn't help but stare at her milky skin. He didn't want to start the act in this rough place again. So he left it at it.
After getting ready, Sesshoumaru started walking ahead of her. He was wondering where Jaken could possibly be with his dragon. He had wanted to fly home for Rin to not suffer that much after last night. He sigh, and for once his mind was empty. Maybe for the first time it was satisfied. Nothing to conquer or to consume. To battle with or to kill. No, he was satisfied.
So his thoughts came back to this source of satisfaction: Rin.
He had just realized something was missing. So pausing on his steps, he felt something bumped against him. Rin clutched lightly on his shirt. Maybe scared of some unknown visitor.
"Sesshoumaru-sama?"
He took her hand, retrieving his steps towards their home.
Centuries later
"Did you heard about it?"
"About what?"
"The tale about the demon and the child?"
"Yes! They say they met in this forest."
"A cold-hearted demon and a child who turned eventually into a lady."
"…and they ended up together bla bla bla…. oh please!" One of the girls said, rolling her eyes. "Obviously some stupid fairy tale from some lovey dovey author."
The comment was totally ignored.
"How romantic!" A girl cheered.
"They mated here also. They say, at night you could still hear their children playing in this forest."
"Some say they´re still living. A bond never to be broken." A stranger added, a foreigner to what it seems. Or is that a man with silver hair and golden eyes?
The girls stared in fascination.
"Really?" A girl appeared behind the young man, with black hair and a cap. She smiled at him. "Never?"
He looked away.
"Let´s go, Rin." The man started walking.
"Hai, Sesshoumaru-sama." Rin caught up with him, taking his hands in hers.
She turned towards the girls one last time, saying. "The tale is true." She then smiled.
Have you heard about the tale, too?

A/N: Wow, that's the end at last… Im going to edit some parts I am not happy with. But that would take long. TNX for the support. To the great SessRinfans who reviewed this story. Im going to start anew.
Maybe this was boring and VERY corny, but I didn't want a lovey dovey scene in the end…. sigh
