A/N: Hey hey guys how are you this fine...what day is it now? Oh well, anyway here's a brand new one shot, pretty short and all about Sesshomaru and Rin. I can't really say it's romantic but it just kind of popped into my head one day and I wrote it down. On with the show!

“Please.”

That word. Oh how that word made him wince. He absolutely despised it whether it be someone else speaking it or whether he was merely thinking it.

Please.

It made him feel weak, inferior, and the great Sesshomaru should never be made to feel that way. Ever.

And yet…

Somehow, when she said it, it was okay. The word slipping from between her sweet innocent lips of childhood made him feel as though, for the first time in his life, he wanted to protect someone other than himself. She made him feel about 150 years younger, back to those young childhood days of yore when he felt a strong emotion towards his mother that not until years later he defined.

Love.

Yet he could not once remember begging his mother for anything, not ever. So standing here, listening to this child that followed and trusted him to the ends of the Earth practically fall to her knees waiting for his approval was something he internally raged against.

And yet…

He would rather tear out his own heart than hurt her now whether he wanted to believe it or not and, depending on his answer to her one simple word, could re arrange his values completely. Should he? Dare he?

“Please Lord Sesshomaru? Would you let me go? I'll be right back, promise!”

Biting his lip for a mere instance in thought he finally closed his eyes patiently and stopped moving. He could smell the eagerness without looking at her and her pitiful gaze nearly made him smile. After a moment he finally trusted himself to respond but took his time in opening his mouth.

“Yes, Rin, do as you wish. See that you are back by nightfall.”

His reply nearly burned his throat as he spoke…and yet…

Her answering smile was grateful, eager, loving so that he felt warmth in the pit of his stomach.

Than, and only then, did he learn to appreciate her. She and her wretched human word.

A/N: Well, what did you think. Again it's really short but consider it a preview of sorts on a future relationship story...be on the look out! But if you're absolutely dying for a Sess/Rin fic like now you can check out my Love Knows No Bounds 2! Reviews always great and thanks for reading!
