"Speaking"
'Thoughts'
The two continued to sit in comfortable silence until Ani suddenly sat up. Grinning in a way that can only be described as eerie, she spoke. "I've got a great idea, why don't we go and spy on the two lovebirds." She said.
Raising an eyebrow, Hiei scoffed. "Watching two humans cuddle is not my idea of a good time." He said.
"You say that now, but I bet you're one of those guys who secretly loves kittens and other cute things." Ani said with a smirk. Seeing Hiei flinch, she started to laugh. "You're such an easy target."
Hiei narrowed his eyes in response.
"But seriously." Ani said after a pause. "What do you want to do, it's only 10 p.m." When her silent partner shrugged, she sighed. "Wow, some help you are. No wonder Treela left you, you're a bore." Hearing a growl, Ani put her hands up in surrender. "Chill out, it was just a joke…well, not the 'you being a bore' part."
Giving his companion his fiercest glare, Hiei wasn't really surprised to see that it had no effect on her. "I have never met a human quite like you before." He muttered. 'And I hope I never do again.'
"I'll take that as a compliment." Ani said with a smile before turning serious once more. "Now back to the problem at hand, what are we going to do for the rest of the night? We could go to a club downtown, but you'd probably kill someone." She said as she tapped her chin in thought. "The arcade's out since you don't look like much of a gamer. Hmmm, how about a movie? There should still be a couple of shows playing now."
Raising an eyebrow, Hiei merely shrugged. He supposed anything was better than spending another night on Kurama's windowsill.
"You know, if you keep talking so much I may just have to pull out the duct tape." Ani said, shaking her head in exasperation.
"Shut up woman." Hiei said as he grabbed Ani's hand and pulled her out of their little alcove.
"And here I was beginning to think that you didn't like me." Ani said as she batted her eyelashes in mock cuteness. "But you're really just the shy type huh."
Dropping her hand as if he'd been burned, Hiei clenched his fists.
"Haahaha!" Ani laughed. "You should really see your face, it's priceless." Before Hiei could respond, she continued. "Ok, off to the theater we go." And once again Ani grabbed his hand and drug him off.
'What did I do to deserve this?' Hiei asked himself, but he couldn't stop the small smile tugging at his lips.
10 minutes later, the duo found themselves outside a small theater. Walking up to the 'now playing' screen, Ani looked for a show that would be starting soon. When she turned to face Hiei with a gleam in her eye, Hiei paled slightly. "Well, we've got two options." She said. "Do you want to see something scary, or something downright horrifying?"
Looking at the odd woman before him, Hiei smirked. "Horrifying." He said as he waited for her reaction. However, it wasn't quite what he'd been looking for.
Chuckling darkly, Ani grinned. "Beverly Hills Chihuahua it is then." She said as she turned back to the ticket window.
"W-WHAT?!" Hiei practically screamed.
"Well you did say you wanted to see something horrifying." Ani said with a smirk.
"B-but…" Hiei suddenly found himself at a loss for words.
"I'm just messing with you." Ani said as she watched the spiky haired man sputter. "I figured we'd go and see The Strangers."
Taking a breath, Hiei once again questioned his sanity.
Meanwhile, Ani had turned back towards the window. "Hey, I'd like two tickets for The Stranger please." She said as she pulled out her wallet.
The man glanced between the two in front of him before smiling somewhat sexily at the woman that now stood at the window. "You know, if he's too cheap to pay for your date, you can always ditch him and hang out with me." He said.
Ani wasn't sure which was funnier, Hiei growling and looking pissed off over a little comment, or the idiot in front of her who was stupid enough to say something like that in front of said dangerous looking man. In the end, she decided it would probably be best if she stopped the situation from escalating instead of laughing her ass off. "One, it's not a date." Ani said, narrowing her eyes in annoyance. "And two, give me my tickets or I'll talk to your manager. Then you won't have to worry about dating anyone since you won't have any money."
Gulping, the man quickly handed over the tickets.
With a smile Ani handed one to Hiei and they started inside. Pausing, Ani leaned towards the window. "Oh, and one more thing." She said evilly. "I'd be careful walking alone at night, my friend can be a little dangerous." Smirking as she watched the man pale, she followed after Hiei.
"What was that all about?" Hiei asked mildly curious.
"Oh, nothing." Ani said suspiciously. "Come on, the movie starts soon."
ooooo
"Humans really are despicable creatures." Hiei said as they walked out of the theater.
"For once, I agree with that statement." Ani said as they started heading back towards the park where her car was parked. "I mean yeah it would be a blast to scare someone you know like that, but to do that to complete strangers…that's just messed up."
"Hn." Was Hiei's only response as they continued on in silence.
When they arrived at the car, Ani smiled. "Thanks for hanging out with me tonight, I had fun." Seeing Hiei's nod, she rolled her eyes. "Well, whenever you get bored and want to do this again, Yusuke's got my cell number." Giving Hiei a quick peck on the cheek, Ani climbed into her car and headed home.
Blushing slightly, Hiei brought his fingers to his cheek. "Perhaps I will give her a call tomorrow." He said softly as a genuine smile graced his lips.
