InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Unknown Mate ❯ Understanding ( Chapter 2 )

Chapter 2: Understanding.

 

Surprisingly, it was Rin who woke up first, the need to go to the bathroom to great, Sesshoumaru still asleep after the exhausting mating act. If their mate connection hadn't been as new and as unused, Sesshoumaru would've sensed her panicked state as she quickly picked up her clothes and put them on. Rin closed the door softly as she walked away, the clock on the night table said, 5:36, she had 3 hours to get home, take a shower, explain to Kouga where she was, if he was even there and not at a chick's house, and get to school. The muscle in her legs felt like giving out, her neck hurt for some reason and her head pounding. She just remembered she didn't have her bag, or her cell. As she walked on, no one was there, so she looked for a phone, he'd understand. It's not like they had a relation ship or anything. After the cab had arrived, and drove her to her house, she told him to wait so she could get the money, for the key hidden under the mat, and grabbed some from the change box.

 

Kouga wasn't home, she noticed, but wasn't surprised. She went upstairs to her own personal shower, and drew a warm bath. She went to her room to get some bath salts and some clothing. Wincing every time she moved.

 

While Rin was taking a bath, Sesshoumaru was waking up to an empty bed, feeling drained. When he woke up, he started breathing heavily, everything that happened yesterday, coming back to him. His eyes shot open when her remembered biting into her neck, drinking her blood, then healing the wound. Remembering the way she arched into him, the way she begged him for more, harder and faster. Even if he only had her once, he lost control, and now he was stuck with the consequences. He noticed that she wasn't there, where she was supposed to be. She probably went home, he decided when he noticed her lack of clothing on the floor. He looked at the clock on the night table, i t was 7:56. He'd get ready for school, then think of something, a way to find her, maybe she'd go to his school, she looked young enough.

 

When he was showering he couldn't help wonder if she was with pup. Almost every newly mated couple had a pup after the mark. He didn't know if he was excited or worried, but he didn't know how he'd tell his dad or his stepmother. He knew with the rate he was going it would be after school. He barely paused to get clothes on, tore down the stairs, told Inuyasha to hurry up, got into his jaguar and drove to school.

Rin looked into the mirror after her bath, Kouga hadn't come home yet, so she'd talk to him after school, or call him during her break. She had a bite mark at the base of her neck, so she decided to cover it up with a choker, while she put the rest of her clothes on. It felt weird covering the mark with a chocker, like she was hiding a part of her, but it was too hot for a turtle neck and she didn't want anyone to think she was a hussy.

 

Rin put on a tight t-shirt and pair of acid washed jeans, grabbed her messenger bag, and her keys. She got to her beat up convertible, even though Kouga had money, Rin wanted to work for her transportation, but was willing to accept gas money at anytime.

 

“Just get to school, then go home and sleep.” Rin told herself as she started the car. By the time she had pulled up to the school parking lot, it was almost full. She parked by a pink bug.

 

“Hey.” A girl with long brown hair, and cheery blue eyes waved. Her friend, who also had brown hair, up in a ponytail, but she had fiery brown eyes, did the same. “I'm Kagome, this is Sango.”

 

“I'm Rin.” She grabbed her bag out of the passenger seat, and slammed the door. “And, I'm also new. Can you tell me where the office is?”

 

The girl, Kagome smiled “Sure. I was on my way there anyways. I want to make a schedule change. Come on.” Rin walked in the middle of Kagome and Sango.

 

“Aren't you the girl from the club?” Sango asked, with a frown.

 

Rin blushed, “Yea.”

 

“You just looked familiar, that's all.”

 

“So, where are you from?” Kagome asked curiously.

 

“My family moved around a lot, but I was born in Tokyo.” Rin replied, as they entered the school.

 

“Cool. Hey, Sango, where did the boys say they'd meet us?” Kagome stopped for a second.

 

“At your locker I think, I don't really remember. Why?” Sango asked. Both, Rin and Sango stopped and turned around.

 

“Because, Rin, I like you, you're very nice,” `Well that was quick' Rin thought to herself. “And I have very good judge of character. So, you should meet the rest of the gang and then study with us tonight. If you want, of course.” Rin turned to Sango.

 

“Hey, it's fine with me. You do seem nice.”

 

“Thank you. Um, I'll think about it.” Rin nodded to herself.

 

“GREAT!” Kagome looped her arms through Sango's and Rin's, and started skipping to the office.

 

“I should've warned you,” Sango shook her head. After all the stuff had been dealt with at the office, they went to Rin's locker, which was besides Sango's, and then to Kagome's. “She gets like that, when she's really happy. And when she's hyper. I'll warn you next time.”

“The guys are coming.” Rin and Sango both turned at Kagome's voice. Rin stopped breathing, when she noticed amber-eyed god, Sesshoumaru was there. She barely heard the greetings; all she saw was the look in his eyes, like he wanted to kill her or kiss her but couldn't decide. It was bad enough she lost her virginity to him, but he had to go to the same school. Before Kagome could say anything, he grabbed her arm, and dragged her away with a simple, “We need to talk.”

 

So she did go his school, he could slightly sense her fear, and her confusion. He dragged her to an empty classroom. “What's happening?” Rin could still barely breathe.

 

So she didn't know what it meant, better tell her now than never. Sesshoumaru looked at her neck, a chocker covering it. He just slashed her necklace away, his mark pulsing on her neck. “What does it mean?” She started hitting his chest, for some reason she didn't understand. “TELL ME! Tell me!” He gripped her fist between his hands and pulled her to his chest.

 

“Don't you understand? We're mated, that our mark.” He bent down and kissed the, as if to prove something. Like it was there, and it existed.

 

“No.” Rin's legs buckled from shock and pleasure, as she fainted in Sesshoumaru's arms.
