Sesshomaru Takahashi read quietly underneath the provided shade of the tree, not minding the small little rays of sunlight pouring down. It was lunch time and the seniors were allowed to stay out longer than the rest of the class. He wasn't paying any attention to those girls of his grade or lower, who were swooning and giggling dreamily as they gazed at him from a distance.
To them, Sesshomaru was unapproachable. There were only a few girls who actually dared to go up to him and ask him out. Kagura Kaze was one of them, along with Kikyo Shikon. However, they were both ignored or 'rejected' by him when they asked if he would like to have coffee after school. Many girls wished to be bold enough and ask him to date them, but they already knew the outcome.
Sesshomaru was not a guy who you could just ask out. He was so cold and heartless; you would need more than hot chocolate and a chainsaw to break through him. Unfortunately, there was one girl who managed to enter his cruel heart.
Rin Seijun, junior, class 2B. They don't know how she wriggled herself into Sesshomaru's private and pubic life and even with the greatest of bribes, Rin could only tell them. "Good friends are hard to come by, but trust is harder."
"Sesshomaru!" an optimistic feminine voice called his name. All heads turned over to the direction of the voice and saw a slim brunette female making her way over to the icy senior.
Sesshomaru looked at her out of the corners of his eyes and acknowledged her existence. "Rin."
Rin smiled brightly at him, an obento in her hand. "What are you reading there?" she asked pleasantly, sitting down next to him with her legs crossed Indian style.
"Angels and Demons, by Dan Brown." He answered slipping in a bookmark and closed the book, leaving it beside him.
"Oh, isn't he also the writer of the Da Vinci Code? I've read that one. It was quite interesting." Rin undid the knot and took away the dotted red handkerchief. There were two layers and two pairs of chopsticks. There was also a small green plastic pocket, unopened.
Snapping both pairs of wooden chopsticks, she handed one to him and separated the decks, giving one to him and keeping the other for herself. Sections were divided into rice, small pickled vegetables, some assorted meats, and a few candied fruits.
"I hope that you like pickled carrots. Mother said that they're good for your eyes." She told him, putting some rice into her mouth.
"Hn, it is fine." Sesshomaru picked up some food and continued to eat. The birds chirped overhead, and the buzz in the courtyard continued. Occasionally, a few girls, older and younger than Rin would shoot her jealous or despising glances, especially the Sesshomaru fan club. They would hug their Sesshomaru-plushie and stick out their chest, where a charming face of the silver-haired senior was printed.
Rin felt some o the stares and just peer over her shoulder to see most of the female population looking at her. Quirking a brow in question, she met Sesshomaru's inquiring eyes. She only shrugged since she didn't understand why they were acting like so.
Finishing up their lunch, Rin wrapped the empty boxes and discarded the chopsticks. She broke into the plastic bag, taking out a long biscuit stick with a thick lime green coating on the outside. She sniffed it then inserted the covered tip into her mouth, biting it off.
Sesshomaru picked up his book and returned to read it, payin no mind as Rin continued to eat her store candy. The usual sounds from the two of them were the pages of the book turning and the crunching of the toasted breadstick.
Finally, the class bell rang, and everyone started to file back into the school and out of the Spring's sun. Rin was about to bite into the last one when she reconsidered and stared at it, deciding what she ought to do with it. At last and idea came to her and she stood up, candy in one hand and the empty obento in the other.
"I'll see you later Sesshomaru!" Rin said to him happily. Sesshomaru looked up to answer her only to receive her last candy stick in his mouth. His friend grinned at him with her head tilted to the side. "Enjoy!"
Sesshomaru's golden eyes followed her bouncy form to the school doors, tasting the melting cream on his tongue. He bit it and took the rest of it out of his mouth. The bread-like substance slowly turned to mush and the flavouring remained in his mouth. Sesshomaru ate the rest of it quickly, savoring the sweetness.
"So? How did you like it…?" Rin asked him after school, both hands behind her back, her satchel banging against the back of her knees as she walked along side him.
"It was… pleasant." Sesshomaru said to her after a thought.
"Good! Now I'm sure that you love green tea! Well, at least, maybe you have a solid addiction to it." she chuckled, smiling at him and walking backwards at the same time. "Think you'll like the next flavour I'm going to bring in tomorrow?"
"We'll see…"he mumbled.
