Chapter 7: Just A Dream
By Tainted InuShemeeko
One whole month and two weeks had passed. Rin have everything she could think of. For both she and Sesshomaru were secretly married. Sesshomaru's father had been their witness. There was one thing that did bother her. She knew it must bother Sesshomaru as well, for whenever one desired the other they had to sneak into each other's rooms. Well no they didn't have to sneak, they just did. Izayoi had caught her the other day and told her that there was no need for the two of them to be sneaking around to be with each, other they were engaged.
Engaged people slept in the same bed right? Rin smiled to herself six more weeks and she was free. That was unless Rin decided to get an early start for her senior year. Birthday was also coming up on the nineteenth. She would then be eighteen, she was so happy she wasn't sure if anything could make her happy. She then frowned at the clock on her wall. She had a doctor's appointment at 12:15 pm it was only 10:13 am. Rin had gone to school early this morning so she could be excused from her classes and pick up all her homework.
Rin was now sliding into a tan pair of Capris. She then walked to her closet and pulled out a light teal button up blouse. She was pulling the buttons closed, when two strong arms wrapped themselves around her. Rin giggled as he pressed his nose into the crook of her neck the warm exhales of air tickling her skin.
"Sesshomaru what are you doing?"
Sesshomaru then placed his warm lips against her neck as he nibbled on her flesh.
"I…am…enjoying time…alone with…my wife. The house is empty we are the only ones here."
She felt a shiver race up she spine as he continued to shower her with kisses.
"I can see that, but if you keep this up I'm going to be late for my appointment with my Gynecologist."
Rin felt her breathe catch in her throat as his hands slid underneath her shirt to caress her sides.
"Your appointment is not until 12:15 correct?"
"Well yes but…"
Sesshomaru quickly placed a finger to Rin's lips silencing her.
"It is only ten twenty is it not? That gives me a half an hour or more to do as I please with my wife."
Rin giggled quietly to herself. She was sure he did what he pleased with his wife every night. Her blouse suddenly fell to the floor causing Rin to glare at him.
"Hey, I just put that on."
Sesshomaru then smirked at her.
"Indeed, and I have just removed it."
It was then she felt Sesshomaru's hand slide underneath of her bra straps as they fell off her shoulders.
"Oh, no you don't."
Rin turned to leave, only to have Sesshomaru try and stop her, causing the two of them to fall on the bed, Sesshomaru landing on top of Rin, who was now on the bed, a small smile appeared on his lips as he gazed at her.
"It would appear we now have a situation on our hands."
Sesshomaru's lips were wet as he placed them against, Rin's moist ones. Her lips parted for his tongue as it once again begged for entrance into her cavern. Rin felt light headed as the familiar wanting in the center of her thighs called to her.
As though he sensed it as well. Sesshomaru broke the kiss, and rolled from one top of Rin. She rolled over to her side to gaze into his gorgeous honey brown eyes.
"Well, it's ten forty-five now. Think you can fit in a history lesson?"
Sesshomaru raise an eyebrow at Rin as he took in what she had just said.
"History lesson. You mean you wish to know more about my family tree?
Rin nodded her head back and forth.
"Of course silly. I'm a Tenseiga too, now you know."
Sesshomaru nodded at Rin's statement.
"What about my ancestors would you like to know?"
Rin tapped her index finger against her lips as she thought.
"How…about what their wedding ceremonies were like?"
Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow yet again at Rin, before he continued.
"From what I have read about my family in my father's books, my ancestors did not have weddings as we do now. The men of my family would find a woman that they desired. Then have them marked with a body mark above their collarbone. The body mark on the lady would mark the one on her lord. Then that night the lord would busy himself filling her womb with his seed, to insure himself an heir."
Rin waited until she was completely sure he was finished before she spoke.
"So what you are saying is that if you're family still believed in that tradition today that instead of a ring. I would have a tattoo placed just above my collarbone?"
"Precisely. However, you would still have gotten the ring."
A small smile appeared once again on Sesshomaru's lips as he looked at the reaction on Rin's face to his words.
"Oh. I see."
Her eyes drifted down to her watch as she climbed out of bed to retrieve her blouse.
"Sesshomaru I really love you I know you know that."
Rin bit her lip as she looked at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru smirked as he watched the look on Rin's face. He knew she would do anything to stay here with him, he held the same power over her as she did with him.
"Stop Sesshomaru. Don't look at me like that. If I don't leave now I'll never make it to the doctor's office."
Sesshomaru climbed off of the bed and walk toward Rin. Where he then placed a soft kiss.
"You know Rin. I could always tell my father that something important came up. That way I could go with you."
Rin found herself blush as she looked up at Sesshomaru.
"It's really not that important."
Sesshomaru's voice took on a serious tone.
"Your health is important to me."
Rin smiled up at Sesshomaru as she answered him.
"All that Dr. Yang is going to be doing is change the dosage of my birth control. I was fifteen when my mother put me on it, I'm a lot older and things change."
**************************************************************< /div>
Rin was all smiles when she pulled into the doctor's office. It had taken some convincing, but she had finally been able to get Sesshomaru to go to work. Her thoughts then went to the two-story house she and Sesshomaru had been looking at. They both had decided that they need a place away from Sesshomaru's family.
Rin pulled in a breath as she sat on the doctor's table in her gown. Dr. Yang had been gone for a good while, which only made Rin worry more. Just as Rin was about to jump off the table and leave, Dr. Yang walked through the door. Her long black hair was pulled back behind her, and her dark almond shaped eyes seemed to be dancing. That's when she started to talk.
"Now Rin. I'm sure you know that no contraceptive is fool proof?"
Rin nodded in response as Dr. Yang continued to talk. Her voice box refused to function right.
"Rin I have to ask you do you remember the last menstrual cycle you had?"
Rin shook her head as tears suddenly pooled from her eyes.
"I'm sorry. I'm…I'm not sure about the date. I've been so busy with school and then last month my mother passed away."
It was then that Rin realized that Dr. Yang was comforting her.
"Shh…Rin honey it's ok. It just makes it harder for us to figure out when the baby is due. I've all ready set you up for an appointment in a week with Dr. Rose, She's a wonderful doctor, and I believe you and Sesshomaru will like her. She's delivered quit a few babies."
With the help of Dr. Yang, Rin climbed off the table.
`I'm carrying Sesshomaru's child inside of me. We're going to be parents. This is one of the happiest days of my life.'
The second Rin's feet touched the floor. Her head started to spin; the dizziness was quickly over coming her senses. Right before she collapsed toward the floor, causing Dr. Yang to jump forward to catch her.
"Rin? Rin honey can you hear me?"
*************************************************************** *********
Sesshomaru was in a meeting with his father. When Inutaisho's sectary buzzed him.
"Mr. Tenseiga, I sorry to bother you, but there is an important call for your son."
Sesshomaru's cold eyes looked over at his father sectary as he spoke.
"I'm in an important meeting with my father. Tell them to call back later."
The woman nodded and then spoke quickly.
"Yes sir, I only bothered you because it was about your fiancé Rin she…"
Sesshomaru didn't even wait for the sectary to finish her sentence, nor did he wait for his father to excuse him. He grabbed his keys and was gone.
"Wait…Mr. Tenseiga."
"Sesshomaru…wait a minute."
They're pleads fell on deaf ears, for Sesshomaru was no longer in his fathers office building. The young lady bowed respectfully to Inutaisho, he in turn bowed to her.
"Thank you Karla. You may go now."
The young woman bowed once more before she left. Now that she was gone he could now ponder his son's actions from a few minutes ago. Inutaisho now knew that his son's feelings for Rin were true. Slowly without knowing she was doing it she had started to melt the ice around his son's heart.
The smile on his face grew as he thought about it.
"So Sesshomaru my son, you have someone who you truly care about. It makes me wonder if I did try hard enough to make you happy."
*************************************************************** *****
Sesshomaru eased his foot hard down on the gas. He was now close to do seventy in a fifty-five mph zone. At this point however he didn't give a damn, only one thing matter right know and that was Rin. A million questions swam in his brain. Had there been more to Rin's strange spells then what they had thought? Was she going to die, was that why she was now in the hospital?
"I will not lose you, Rin. I cannot. I shall do every thing in my power to make sure you have the best care."
A sudden thought sprang to mind as Sesshomaru pulled into the parking lot. He was going to give Rin her birthday present early, the modeling have not been finished in time for it to be her wedding gift. However it would work well for a birthday gift.
*************************************************************** ********
Sesshomaru then walked calmly up to the information desk, as a young woman with bright blue eyes and short red hair spoke to him.
"Can I help you sir?"
The woman seemed to shiver as she stared into Sesshomaru's frozen eyes. His face was stoic once again, his cold honey brown orbs, not showing any emotion.
"Could you tell me what room a Miss. Rin Faren is in. I was told she was admitted earlier today."
The young woman nodded and leafed through her files.
"Room 307B."
Sesshomaru nodded a thank you and then head to the elevators. He found himself pray once again to the heavens that whatever they found wrong with Rin was not life threatening. Sesshomaru had been shrugging this strange feeling away for weeks. Today however he had not been able too, the feeling had been to strong, causing him to run out of his father's office, seeking information on Rin's well being.
He was in such deep thought that he didn't even hear the doctor call out his name.
"Mr. Tenseiga? Mr. Tenseiga? Sesshomaru."
Sesshomaru stopped suddenly as his sense came back to him and he realized that the doctor had been speaking to him.
"Mr. Tenseiga?"
Sesshomaru nodded stiffly to confirm who he was.
"And you are?"
The female doctor held out her hand as Sesshomaru shook it.
"I'm Dr. Rose I've been overseeing Rin. If you would mind I would like to talk to you about her condition."
"Of course."
Sesshomaru then pulled in each and every word that the doctor was telling slowly. Making sure he didn't missed a single detail.
*************************************************************** ********
Rin slowly pulled in a shaky breath, as she gently laid a hand over her midsection. She was going to have a baby, true it hadn't been planned. She was only three weeks, so that meant, that it had happen days after her mother's passing.
What had made her even happier was the simple fact that it hadn't been her fault. There had been a small fault in the strength of her birth control pill. It was as if fate was telling her that she was meant to have Sesshomaru's child. Yet fate could be cruel as well, Rin new that all to well, yet it continued to mock her.
For her doctor had told her that she had to be careful, because of how many miscarriages her mother had, had she to was at a high risk of having miscarriages as well. Dr. Rose had also told her that her young age wouldn't help matters either. Hearing such a thing only made Rin feel dirty and she knew she shouldn't, she loved Sesshomaru with all her being, she also knew that deep inside that hard and ice cold heart of his that he loved her as well.
After a few minutes of crying Rin wiped her eyes clean of her tears. As there was a soft knock on her door.
"Come in."
Sesshomaru was stunned by the sternness on her face never had he seen such a coldness in her eyes. That wasn't his Rin, she was suppose to be full of joy and happiness, and he was the one who was suppose to be cold not her. Anger build within his eyes as she continued to look at him as if she had no heart.
"That is enough Rin. Stop it. I refuse to look at you if you continue to look at me in such a way."
Rin gasped when she suddenly realized that Sesshomaru was now standing in her hospital room.
"Oh, Sesshomaru. I didn't realize you were here. I'm afraid my thoughts were else where."
In Rin's eyes, one could read happiness mixed with sadness. What would Rin have to be sad about? She was carrying his child, true the two of them were still young and this baby hadn't been planned, however he knew that some how they would work things out.
Sesshomaru made his way to the side of Rin's bed and sat down. He gently touched the side of her face making her look up at him. Her voice was soft as she spoke.
"I'm guessing you met Dr. Rose?"
Sesshomaru brushed a strand of her dark brown hair away from her face.
"I did."
Rin took a breath as she looked into his honey-brown eyes.
"Then I take it you know about the baby?"
"I do."
Rin's cinnamon eyes, eyed Sesshomaru stoic faced waiting to see his response. Seeing nothing she decided to question him about it.
"Are you mad about it?"
Sesshomaru's honey brown eyes continued to study Rin. His cold eyes then seem to soften a bit as he looked into her eyes, and then hardened again.
"You are foolish for asking me such a thing. It was an unexpected surprise and nothing more, we will just have to find a way to deal with things."
Sesshomaru then reached into his pocket and pulled out a small rectangular box. He then reached out and placed it in Rin's lap.
"An early gift for your 18th birthday. I hope it is to your liking Rin."
Rin's eyes widened as she looked at the objects inside of the box she was confused by the sight of the keys in the box.
"You got me got me keys for my birthday Sesshomaru?"
Sesshomaru narrowed his once again cold eyes at her.
"I had thought that perhaps these keys were burned into your memory. It would seem I was wrong."
Rin picked the keys up and fingered them a little and then it came to her. These were the keys that went to her parent's house. Sesshomaru had bought her a house for her birthday, well not just any house he had bought her house for her.
"Oh, Sesshomaru thank you it is a wonderful gift."
Sesshomaru nodded as he headed toward the door. He then turned to look at Rin.
"Rin. Get dressed while I sign your release papers. Mother and father will be concerned about your well being."
Rin nodded and did as she was told. However, she was totally confused by his tone of voice.
*************************************************************** *********
Rin sighed as she made it to her hunter green Achieva. Two weeks had passed and she was now a month pregnant. She was proud of herself her history, science, P.E. and chemistry teachers had decided to give their final exams early this semester and Rin had aced them all. Well she had gotten a B on her P.E. exam, but hey that was still a good grade.
Her thoughts then drifted to Sesshomaru, She hadn't seen him in two weeks, Rin was starting to think that maybe he wasn't as thrilled about the baby as he had led her to believe. Sesshomaru's parents had been a little shocked over the news of Rin being pregnant. However, they didn't seem to be angry over it too much. Which meant that they had been just as surprised as she and Sesshomaru had been.
After Rin stuck her key in the ignition, and turned it she lifted her head up to look out the windshield. She stifled a scream at what she saw. There taped to her windshield was a warning.
<b>* You Ruined My Life. Now I Will Ruin Yours. * </b>
Rin pulled in a shaky breath as she reach out her window and pulled the note free and then crumpled it up.
"It's nothing he's just trying to scare me. Well it's not going to work, he can't hurt me any more."
Rin however knew she was wrong. Bradley had never forgiven her for leaving him and going to Sesshomaru.
*************************************************************** *****
When Rin arrived at the Tenseiga home 25 minutes later, she found that she was all alone she then found a note stuck to the front door.
<i> "My dear Rin,
I have dinner planned for us. I assumed you know the way to this address.
Sesshomaru </i>
Rin smiled as she read the address. It was the address to her and Sesshomaru's new home. She quickly turned and head back toward her car and head for her destination.
A few minutes later Rin pulled up beside Sesshomaru's silver Pontiac GrandAm. Rin smiled for the third time that night as she saw the bouquet of peach, red and white roses her favorite mix. She bent over and picked up the bouquet. Rin turned the doorknob and walked into the hallway.
"Sesshomaru?"
Rin made her way into the kitchen; dinner seemed to be cooking on the stove and in the oven. The table was set with beautiful blue and red flower patterned china. Rin then noticed that the table was lit by candlelight. Rin started to take a step forward when her foot brushed against something. Her cinnamon eyes widened when she saw another bouquet of peach, red and white roses.
On the other side of the table she found yet another bouquet of roses. Rin was slowly making her way to her room when a pair of hands covered her eyes.
"Do not go there yet Rin. I have other plans."
Rin couldn't help the amusement that covered her words as she spoke.
"Oh, you do, do you now?"
Sesshomaru removed his hands from her eyes as he wrapped them gently yet possessively around Rin's waist. He nuzzled his nose into the crook of her neck taking her sweet jasmine scent as he then whispered into her ear.
"Yes my Rin I do. However, a few surprises must come first. I hope it pleases you."
Rin held her breath as Sesshomaru led her toward her parent's old room. Rin's beautiful cinnamon eyes widened as she looked into room. It no longer had the smell of her parents, but the sweet smell of roses and carnations. The bed floor was now a deep red, the wood finish on the dressers and bed stand, was a deep dark cherry. The cherry leaf patterns in the dresser and other furniture matched the leaf pattern in the metal headboard and footboard of the bed. The comforter had oversized leaves on it done completely in earth-toned colors. The satin pillows covers and sheets were a deep ivory color with a maroon border, with green and ivory leaf prints.
The walls of the room were still the same ivory color her parents had in the room. A chandelier like light hung from the ceiling. There was one thing that seemed to catch Rin's eye more then anything. There hanging on the wall above their bed, was Rin's maroon comforter with the jewels her mother had placed on it.
"Oh, Sesshomaru I don't know what to say."
Sesshomaru nodded his head as to state that he understood. Rin turned slowly around the room taking everything in. That's when a question found it's way to her lips.
"Sesshomaru what happened to all my parents stuff?"
Sesshomaru walked graciously toward and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek
"I had the movers put it all into storage. I figured when the time was right you and I could go through it all."
Rin nodded a yes to him.
"Yes, that sounds like a wonderful idea."
Sesshomaru then reach out and took Rin's hand in his.
"If you are done looking at our room. I would like to show you my other surprise. Close your eyes. It would not be a surprise if you did not."
Rin giggled lightly as she covered her eyes.
"No I guess it wouldn't be a surprise."
A slight smile found its way onto Sesshomaru's lips as he led Rin out of their bedroom and down the hallway. Once the reached the bedroom door, Sesshomaru turned the knob and pushed the door open. He stepped backwards into the room as he led Rin.
"You may open your eyes now, Rin."
Words refused to form on Rin's lips as her eyes looked around the room. The carpet was now light beige, however it was not the carpet that had stolen her ability to speak, but the cherry stained baby crib. The sheets, bumper, and comforter had images of the night sky. Yellow moons and stars seemed to dance upon the sheets. The mobile of thesky started to play "Lullaby and goodnight".
The changing table, dresser, and rocker were stained the same cherry color as the crib. It all was all so beautiful. It was then that Sesshomaru noticed how much blue was in the sheets. When they had been ordered he realized he didn't know what the child would be yet. Rin seemed to understand what he was frowning about. She then took his hand and squeezed it.
"Don't worry I'm sure the baby will love the room just as much as I do, whether it is a boy or a girl because their daddy made it."
*************************************************************** ***
Rin sighed contently beside Sesshomaru. Dinner had been wonderful; stuffed salmon, the stuffing had been crab and shrimp in a cheese sauce. Angel hair pasta accented the rest of their dinner; it all had begun with a salad with a light dressing. When she asked Sesshomaru were he learned how to cook his answer had been simply.
"There are many things am capable of doing that you had yet to learn. Some day I'm sure you will understand them all."
Her head was gently rest against Sesshomaru's chest. Rin couldn't think of any way to make this any better. It was like a dream.
"Sesshomaru is it possible that this is just a dream? That none of this has really happened?"
Sesshomaru's monotone voice spoke next.
"That is unheard of. We are here are we not? Meaning that this is real for we are real are we not?"
Rin nodded her response.
"Yes, I suppose you are right. Goodnight Sesshomaru. May the night bring you sweet dreams."
Sesshomaru's voice was barely above a whisper, as sleep started to claim him.
"And to you as well, my Rin."
Rin soon found herself slipping into a peaceful slumber. One would hope this night would never end for them. For the days to come would be the most trying for the two of them their lives would be changed forever.
(A/N: Wow, this chapter was longer then I had thought it would be. I hope no one is mad at me. If you wish to see what other changes will take place in their lives, please stay with me. Nothing shall start the way it is now.
