There's a flashback within a flashback.
It's in italics and even though Sesshomaru is thinking about it, it's
told from Rin's pov.

grimaced. Where the hell is Jaken with
my coffee, he thought angrily. He had sent him at the coffee a few minutes ago
and he still hadn't returned.
If you want something done,
do it yourself.
He got up and headed for the
break room. Apparently it had gotten
around that he was in an extremely bad mood because people literally moved out
of the way when they saw him coming.
Jaken had just finished making a fresh pot of coffee when he walked in.
"S-s-sorry for taking so
long." Jaken stuttered when he saw
Sesshomaru. "I had to...."
"Did I ask you to
speak?" he said coldly.
Jaken instantly went
silent. Sesshomaru went over and
grabbed the coffee pot with one of the small potholder on the counter.

"I don't want to be
disturbed for the next two hours."
he said to Jaken, who had followed him.
He closed the door and went to
sit down on the couch in there. He was
ready to explode and the slightest thing was bound to set him off.

in his accusations that the cops had set him up, but an even bigger truth was
the fact that he had been ty.
what if he's free, Sesshomaru suddenly thought, he's not going to have time to
enjoy it. A small sadistic smile spread
across his lips as he pictured Hiten weighted down with cement and chains
sinking deep into the ocean, never to be heard from again. Sesshomaru let that
image play over in his mind for a second and then shook his head to get rid of
it. No, he'd deal with Hiten Thunder a
little later. First and foremost on his
mind was Rin. She had come to help him
and in return he treated her like garbage.
Correction, worse than garbage.
"I was better off this
morning when I didn't remember."
he said to himself with a sigh.
Flashback-
Sesshomaru groaned as he
slowly woke up. I'm never drinking that
much again. His head was pounding but
oddly enough, he didn't have any other signs of a hangover.

to the harsh morning light, so he kept them closed. He turned on his side and instantly stiffened because he realized
that he wasn't in his bed. His eyes
flew open and he found himself staring at the black marble in his
bathroom. What the hell was he doing in
the bathroom? Lying in the shower with
his pillow and a blanket. Somehow he
doubted that he had been sober enough to grab himself a blanket and pillow
before he passed out. To add to his
confusion, he was now wearing different clothes. What in the world happened?
And why do I keep remembering lying in Rin's lap?

Rin groaned when
Sesshomaru's heavy body hit hers. When
he didn't move, she figured that he had passed out. She ran her hand through his hair and then shifted slightly to
get comfortable.
"Stop
moving." he mumbled.
"If you're still up, let's
move you to the bed." she said
looking down at him. "You'll be
more comfortable there."
"Are you going to
sleep with me?"
"Why don't you ever
ask me that when you're sober?"
she said. "Come on, to bed
with you."
Rin lifted his head up so
she could start getting up.
"Don't move
me." he groaned.
"We're just going to
the bed. You're too heavy for me so
you're going to have to help." she
said pushing him off of her.
Somehow she managed to get
up and then get him up. With him
leaning heavily on her, they slowly made their way to his bedroom.
suddenly stopped.
"Movement is
bad." he said.
"You've already said
that. Come on, we just have a few more
steps."
Rin looked up at him for a
second. He really didn't look too good.
"Maybe we should move
you to the bathroom just in case you...."
Rin stopped mid sentence
when her fear came true. She let out a
small scream as Sesshomaru threw up, mostly on her. He then moved past her and went into the bathroom.
"Disgusting!!!"
"Be quiet."
Rin glared at Sesshomaru
who was now sitting next to the toilet with his arm draped across it.
"You're not the one
who was thrown up on. So you shut
up."
She frowned in dit ast as
she carefully peeled off her shirt and pants.
"Sesshomaru you are
going to owe me a big present for this.
I'm talking along the lines of large diamonds, expensive trips, a
car." she said.

She peeled off her panties
and bra and then got in the shower. Rin sighed as she stood under the
water. This was a horrible end to an
otherwise fine day. I need to call
Kohaku and tell him that I'll be gone for a while, she thought.

she didn't notice Sesshomaru come into the shower. She jumped slightly when he placed a kiss on her shoulder.

"No."
It wasn't that Rin didn't

get sex anywhere. She wanted much more

shower, grabbed a towel to wrap around herself and left the bathroom.

to hand him his clothes but stopped in shock.
Sesshomaru was sitting on shower floor with his head tilted back against
the wall. Or at
least Rin hoped he wasn't. There was no
way she'd be able to drag him out of there if he was.
stepped back into the shower and went over to him. She shook him slightly but he didn't move.
"Sess, get
up." she said shaking him.
Once again he didn't

thought with a shake of her head.

Rin grabbed his arms and

sleeping face and a smile crept across her face. He was absolutely adorable.
"You're going to kill
me for this aren't you?"
I'm going to kill Rin,
Sesshomaru thought. He was still
drawing a blank on most of what had happened but it was clear that Rin had put
him in the shower.
And washed you, a voiced

think about it, having her hands all over you isn't a bad thing.

"Rin, you didn't have to
do this." he said.
She jumped slightly and swung
around to face him. Rin cursed
inwardly. She had meant to be gone
before he woke up.
"Morning."
"Rin, about...."
"I didn't get a chance to
take the garbage out." she quickly
said. "I doubt you'd be hungry so
I didn't cook anything. I did make you
my special hangover drink. It's

Sesshomaru could tell that it was fake.
He could see the sadness and pain in her eyes. Sadness and pain that he undoubtedly caused her.

he knew that she needed some time.
Normally she would've stayed and made him apologize.

him. But she had barely looked at him

want him to see. Sesshomaru knew Rin
well enough to know that she was going to stay away until she could

he had done to her, but his mind refused to cooperate.

you'd ruin me."
Sesshomaru cringed as he
remembered himself throwing money at her.
More than anything, he knew that hurt her the most.

He grabbed the phone and
dialed Rin's number. One ring...two
rings...three rings...four rings...five rings.
Where the hell was Rin? Even
if she was screening calls she would’ve picked up the minute his number popped
up on her caller id. Just as he was
about to hang up, someone answered.
"Hello."
Sesshomaru frowned slightly as
he instantly recognized that voice. It
was that damn irritating Kohaku. What
was he doing answering Rin's phone?
"Hello."
"It's Sesshomaru.
There was a slight pause.
"Rin's not here."
"Where is she?"
"I don't know."
"Tell her I
called." he said hanging up.
Lying little bastard knows
exactly where she is, he thought. If
fact, I'd bet anything that Rin's there in the apartment right now.

A cold hand on his shoulder snapped Kohaku out of his thoughts.
"Who was that on the

"Wrong number."

Thanks. Here's the update.
Someone Out There-
Thank you for reading. Yes, he's
in bad shape. Rin is a major part of

for everything working out, I haven't thought that far ahead yet.
