Hello! It has literally been years. I can explain briefly what happened- I had all these chapters typed up and then a baby sprayed my computer with frebreeze until I died. No one on the planet wants to retype entire chapters over again like that. So that plus the fact that I didn't have my own computer really made me neglect my stories! So I truly apologize to all those who really were enjoying this story. I implore you to maybe re-read the chapters before this and become re-acclimated with this story because I honestly feel like this is one of my proudest works. Thank you and I hope you enjoy :) –AF

Chapter 7

"Is jasmine tea alright?"

Rin glanced back to look at her guest. She was perched on a tall stood with one hand grasping the box of tea she was looking for. Blood rushed to her cheeks as she realized that he had been staring at her this entire time.

"Perfect."

Sesshomaru had changed very little over the course of two years. He was dressed in an impeccable three piece suite, all gray, with a blue accented tie and vest. A Rolex drew attention to his wrist. Not a single hair on his hair was out of place, and Rin couldn't help but to stare at the neat stubble that lined his jaw now. Truth be told she found him hotter now than before, if that was even possible.

How many nights had she lain awake wishing to see his face again, or even hear his voice? Now here he was, just randomly appearing on her doorstep talking of a pulled leg. She chuckled now at the rouse.

Stepping down from the step ladder, she miscalculated a step and gasped as her body began to fall. She yelped, and braced herself for impact.

Strong arms encircled her then, and the smell of cologne wafted through the air. Sesshomaru took his time placing her back on her feet. He leaned in close and breathed in deeply at the junction of her neck, an action that caused her to shiver.

When he did place her back on her feet, she turned to the stove where the tea pot was screaming.

"Thank you. So, tell me, how have you been?"

Behind her she could feel his presence; the heat radiating off of his body was making it very hard to ignore the stirrings between her legs.

He had been the last to touch her that night two years ago, and while she had started to forget his voice she had certainly not forgotten the feel of his body pressed flush against hers. Or how big his-

"I've been great. Busy, my company is expanding. So much so, that I'm heading a new branch that will be right here in California."

The news sparked hope in her heart. Had he come here to possibly finish what they had started? Pouring the tea into two separate cups, Rin gingerly handed one to her former patient.

"Wow that's fantastic! Now that you're so close I'm going to take it personally if you don't visit once in a while."

He chuckled as he sipped his tea, and Rin cursed herself in her head. She didn't want to make it sound like she wasn't interested in him, but at the same time two years was a lot of time. What if he had already moved on and found someone already?

"So. Any beautiful girl waiting for you home back in Japan?"

She felt confident enough to ask, knowing what implication it would leave, but as the words left her lips she immediately regretted them. Maybe she didn't want to know just yet why he was visiting her now after all this time.

Across from her, Sesshomaru pinned her with his stare.

"Actually, I left a beautiful girl in the States when I went back to Japan."

At hearing his confession, her heart sped up a few beats. Nervously, she reached into her lab jacket and found her favorite pen. Clicking it a few times, she brushed a few curls behind her ear before making eye contact once more.

Suddenly her mouth went dry.

"Oh?"

She didn't know what else to say.

Sesshomaru had a light smile shaping his lips.

"I was hoping that she'd still remember me, and perhaps let me take her out tonight."

She could hardly contain the excitement that bubbled up inside of her. Smiling broadly, the doctor stood and carried their cups to the sink.

"Well, I think her memory is a little fuzzy. Maybe he should remind her who he was again?"

She only meant to tease, but when she went to turn around Sesshomaru was standing right behind her. The next moment his lips were on hers and her body was pulled tightly against his taunt chest. Though caught off guard, Rin quickly threw her arms around his neck and pressed her chest into him.

A moan escaped her lips when he hoisted her up by her ass and placed her on the counter. Sesshomaru broke the kiss only to begin assaulting her neck. His hands both reached up to squeeze suggestively on her covered breasts.

"Mhmmmm Sessho."

He growled at the sound of his name. Taking one of her hands, he dragged it down his body until he pressed it into his crotch. Drunk with lust, Rin could feel the apex between her legs begin to throb painfully as she caressed his hardness through his dress pants.

"I've thought about touching you again every single day since I left."

His hot breath in her ear only made her shudder as her fingers fumbled with his belt.

"I've missed you so much Sesshomaru. I wanted to call but-"

He cut her off with a kiss; his tongue lightly traced her bottom lip before plunging into her mouth.

She was so into the kiss, she didn't realize that one of Sesshomaru's hands had found its way up her skirt and into her panties until he teasingly rubbed her clit.

She threw her head back in a loud moan, giving Sesshomaru full reign to her throat. He wasted no time in nipping and sucking the creamy skin there.

Finally, she pulled his thick length from its containment and squeezed it gingerly.

She was just about to beg him to take her, when

*Verrrrrrr. Verrrrrrr. Verrrrr*

"Don't answer it."

She kissed his chin and pouted at him as he pulled back to check his caller ID.

He held up a finger and kissed her lips before bringing the phone to his ear. Panting and disappointed, Rin mischievously continued to squeeze and caress his exposed shaft.

"Yes."

"Sesshomaru, we need you here at the office. The clients on the Grayberg contract are threatening to walk. They're here now but will only speak with you."

"I'll be there in 10 minutes. Keep them busy."

Having heard the conversation, Rin was more than disappointed. She groaned when he unwrapped her fingers from around him and tucked himself back into his pants. He leaned forward then and kissed her hard on the lips. His amber eyes captivated her once more.

"We will finish this after dinner. "

His statement left a hot blush on her cheeks as her mind raced to fantasize about what she had almost gotten on her kitchen counter.

He gently lifted her back up and placed her feet back down on the floor.

"I'll be back to pick you up around 7."

Nodding, Rin walked him to the front door, where she stole one last kiss and watched as he strode to his car and drove off. Closing the door, she bit her lip and slid down the length of the wall. She squeezed her brown eyes shut.

"He came back."

Tears sprang from her eyes and trickled down her rosy cheeks.

A small smile upturned her lips.

"He really came back."

Starting off a little short but not to worry :) As always looking forward to read your feedback.-AF
