Escape

I was tired of my lady
We'd been together too long
Like a worn out recording
Of a favorite song
So Botan and I, being Hiei, have been married for ten years. Crazy right? Duh! Anyway, we're considered married in EVERY religion, race, system, if ya know what I mean n.n. Sure I love her, but it's just getting sooo boring around here, nothing exciting. The best thing is we probably make out of the couch. Although we want kids, the problem is her working all the time and not being a human twenty four seven.
So while she laid there sleepin'
I read the paper in bed
In the personal columns
There was this letter I read
That's exactly correct. Wow this song is really interesting. It's like the story of my marriage. Every night Botan will fall asleep next me looking like the death lady she was, whoa does Koenma work her hard now that there's no spirit detective. Alright, so she's passed out before I even slip under the covers. How insane is that v.v? So I read the damned Reikia paper that appears on our kitchen table every morning. That's when I saw it!
If you like piña coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
And have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight
In the dunes of the cape
I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape
I didn't think about my lady
I know that sounds kinda mean
But me and my old lady
Fallin' into the same ol' dumb routine
Truthfully I was very interested. One, this song was creepy and she sounded wonderful. Did someone sneak around and write a song about me or something? Maybe I should check for cameras in my home… I wonder what she looks like. Hopefully hotter then some of the weird people I've seen around this place.
So I wrote to the paper
Took out a personal ad
Though I'm nobody's poet
I thought it wasn't half bad
The next day when Botan was at work I quickly wrote something up. Surprisingly enough it was entertaining to read. I even smiled at my work. Yes, it's wonderful; I know I'm a genius. So quickly that none of Botan's co workers or friends noticed me, I dropped it off with a note what I wanted. With that left on the desk I used my super speed to leave and made it safely back to my room and waited. My letter read:
Yes I like piña coladas
And getting' caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I gotta meet you by tomorrow noon
And cut through all this red tape
At a bar called O'Malley's
Where we'll plan our escape
And then the sun rose and I was so eager to meet this lovely lady.
So I waited with high hopes
And she walked into the place
I knew that smile in an instant
I knew the curve of her face
You have to be kidding me! A large smile plastered on both of our faced. We were laughing at ourselves as she walked over. This is insane that she's my mystery lady who liked piña coladas and… oh I'm going to try that someday.
It was my ol' lovely lady
And she said 'Oh, it's you'
And we laughed for a moment
And I said 'I never knew'
I pulled out a chair next to me and she sat down and kissed my cheek. This was wild enough for me. "Hello Hiei, I can't believe this." Nodding to her words my mouth was hanging open a bit at the things the she had mentioned. "I didn't know…" I told her and she looked a little confused so I explained:
That you liked piña coladas
And getting' caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean
And the taste of champagne
If you loved making love at midnight
In the dunes of the cape
You're the lady I've looked for
Come with me and escape
She threw her head back laughing her heart out and I never thought she was more beautiful. "Well mine did say…":
If you like piña coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
And have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight
In the dunes of the cape
I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape
With that we walked out to go find cape and if Koenma liked it or not we were going to have kids. That little bastard. I love my wife more then anything. And as fates will have we'll be together forever. Seriously, I don't think the two of us will be complaining anytime soon….if ya know what I mean. n.n
