Hey everyone! I'm back! I would like to thank all those who have reviewed! Some character might be OOCness in this chapter and I'm sorry if they are. So please Review people I would really appeciate it!

Disclaimer: Nope don't own. If I did Kurama, and Hiei would be together and have no shirts on.

Kurama shut the door behind and sighed. He was so worried about Hiei. The look in Hiei's was something he wished he could forget. His eyes were so blank and broken. They didn't sparkle like they preciously did, like a beautiful garnet being in sunlight, or freshly spilled blood with its life essence. Instead they were dark, and hollow. They were the color of blood, but there was no life essence in it or a sheet of glass with no light behind them.

He walked into the living room and sat down onto the sofa. With his hands in his lap he continued to brood.

He never saw Hiei like that before. From the very moment he woke up he could tell something was wrong with Hiei. Maybe it had something to do with that nightmare last night.

Kurama chuckled slightly remembering the first time he and Hiei met. Fighting him, then healing him, and fighting along side of him. He yawned. He really didn't get much sleep last night.

He snuggled into the pillow and let his eyes falling shut.

---------Dream-------------

A small silver fox with four tails know as Youko Kurama ran through the woods of Makai. Pausing once and a while to sniff the air for some prey.

Suddenly the fox caught the scent of blood, and it was fresh. The fox swayed his tails back and forth happily, and followed the scent. The fox blinked in surprise as he saw a small figure lying on the ground.

The silver fox approached then figure taking a good look at it. It was a small boy probably two or three years old. He wore ripped pants and shirt covered in blood and dirt, he had a cloth around his forehead that was also stained. But what caught the fox's attention was on the shackle around the boy's ankle.

The fox nudged the young fire demon with his snout. He could tell by his scent that he was half fire demon, but the other half was familiar but he couldn't place it.

The boy groaned and his eyes fluttered open. He sat up slowly and looked around then turned his attention to the fox beside him. The fox saw he had the most beautiful crimson eyes he had ever seen.

The young demon blinked at the silver fox who in return wagged his tails. The hi-youkai made a move to stand stumbling slightly but the fox helped him regain his balance.

He might be Youko Kurama the best thief in Makai didn't mean he was that heartless.

The young demon looked at Youko, "You helped me…why?" He asked. Youko titled his head to the side puzzled. He knew he couldn't talk in his fox form so he changed. He crouched down so he was eye leveled with him.

"You were about to collapse I couldn't just stand there and watch you injure yourself more." He replied.

The young demon blinked at him, "But nobody cared if I got hurt before." He said quietly Youko blinked in surprise, "What's your name?" He asked.

"…Hiei…"

"Where's your parents Hiei?" He asked. Hiei looked at him than down to the ground, "I don't have any." He muttered.

"Then who do you live with?" He asked, "Some bandits." The younger one answered. "Some bandits." Youko muttered, 'That explains why he's shackled, but shouldn't he be shackled around the neck?' He thought.

"Hiei may I ask a question?" He asked, and Hiei nodded his head, "Why aren't you shackled at the neck?"

Hiei looked at him then adverted his eyes to the ground, "They didn't want me to die yet." He simply said.

Youko felt his eyes widen. A child so young-practically a baby- tried suicide. He had never heard of a three-year-old committing suicide.

Hiei sighed, and looked back up at the silver kitsune, and flinched when the Youko raised a hand.

The older demon was puzzled why Hiei was afraid of him. Hiei watched as Youko's hand went right past him and picked up the chain, now it was his turn to be puzzled.

He easily broke the chain and removed the shackle; "You have a high level ki for someone your age. If other tied you up it is because they are afraid of you. Give them a reason to be afraid. Go back to those bandits and show them that you are stronger than they give you credit." He said.

Hiei's widened than narrowed in determination as he nodded his head. Youko smirked, "When you get stronger, maybe I'll let you into my own band of thief's." He said.

Hiei's faced brightened as a ghost of a smile appeared on his lips. Youko's smirk turned into a smile, as he got up, and started to walk away back to Kuronue.

'That young one is going to be very powerful one day. Maybe we'll meet again Hiei…' He thought.

-------------End Dream-----------------

"Shuiichi wake up dear." Called a women's voice.

Kurama opened his eyes slowly and looked up at his mother. He sat up and released a yawn, "Hello mother." He greeted.

Shiori smiled at her son, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Kurama stood up and stretched, 'That dream was a memory from my past life. So I met Hiei back then. Weird that I didn't remember until now, but than again when you're as old as me…" He thought.

Kurama headed up the stairs and to his bedroom. He opened the door slowly hoping not to wake up Hiei. He was shocked to see Hiei awake standing by the window and staring out of it.

"Hiei you're not supposed to be out of bed." He said stepping into the room shutting the door behind him.

Hiei turned his body to the side slightly to stare at him. Kurama was relieved to see Hiei's eyes back to there old shine. Hiei snorted but didn't say anything.

Kurama smiled at him and walked over, "Did you get any sleep Hiei?" He asked, "I got a little sleep but that human mother of yours woke me up." He answered.

"Sorry." He said grabbing Hiei's hand and leading him towards the bed. Hiei looked startled from the sudden touch but let Kurama do as he pleased.

He motioned for Hiei to sit on the bed, which he did. Kurama sat down beside him and started to un-wrapped his bandages.

Hiei didn't say a word he was thinking about his actions. Why did he stay when he heard his human mother return. He had a perfect chance to leave but he didn't. Why did Kurama always make him think twice about his decisions? Kurama is probably the closest friend he ever had without betraying him. But he still had to be wary around him. Just because he's human now doesn't mean that Youko is gone. The infamous fox demon was known for his seduction, thieving skills, and double crossing. What would stop Youko from betraying him the Forbidden One? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Kurama remove the gauze and took a good look at his back. It was healing fairly well, but then again Hiei always healed fast.

Kurama wished sometimes he could reach and help Hiei without him getting defense, but he knew that it was wishful thinking. Hiei is defense for a reason. He was tortured at a young age, and he never trusted someone fully because he had his trust betrayed so many times. He killed just to survive, and after a while he started to enjoy it cause he found that it was his only way to live. But now that he's with people that want to know him, help him. He doesn't know how to react cause no one has cared about him before.

He re-applied the salve. Kurama didn't know what his hands were doing but before he knew it he was gently messaging Hiei's back.

Hiei was surprised by the gentle touch, but soon found himself leaning into the touch. His eyes fell shut in pleasure as he bit his lip to hold back a moan.

Kurama didn't understand why he was doing this. He did admit to himself a while back that he was attracted to Hiei. What demon in their right mind wouldn't? His large eyes that held the most beautiful crimson orbs, his nose was delicate and small, full lips that just begged to be kissed, he had a sculpted jaw and elegant neck, a muscular body but not too buff and was still lean and swift, and black hair with a white starburst was more like soft fur then hair.

Hiei rested his hands on his knees as Kurama rested his head at the junction where his neck and shoulder met.

He didn't understand why he was letting Kurama do this to him. He hadn't let anyone this close to him ever since…Kaze. But he had to admit what Kurama was doing to him he liked it. He could feel him tense muscles relax under Kurama's skilled hands, and his soft breath near his own neck was making him putty under the kitsune.

But the peaceful moment was interrupted by a soft knock at the front door. Both snapped out of it and Kurama moved away from him blushing slightly, and re-put the gauze.

Hiei was thinking about what had just happened, why did he let Kurama do that? But in a way he was sort of relieved and disappointed that the moment. If that had continued he knew he would've done something he would regret later. Guess sometimes humans are good for something, but other times they were just useless.

Kurama finished putting the gauze back on, and cleaned his hands with a towel.

Hiei made a move to stand up but felt a hand on his shoulder, "Hiei please rest. Your ki is low. Just rest so you can regain it." He said worry in his voice.

Hiei closed his eyes and sighed, "Why are you doing this Kurama?" He muttered. Kurama blinked puzzled, "What do you mean? I'm doing this cause I care." He said.

Hiei felt his eyes widen in shock. He knew that Kurama was his friend and cared about his health, but hearing him say it was more shocking.

"Shuiichi! Come down here please!" Called his mother, "I'm coming!" He called back. He turned his attention back to Hiei, "Please try and get some rest." He said getting up from the bed and leaving the room.

Hiei watched him leave and sighed. 'Well I should be fully healed in an hour or two, and my ki should back to normal in three. I might as well as stay for a well.' He thought lying back down onto his stomach.

------------------------------

Kurama walked down the stairs and was greeted by his stepfather, and little brother. He smiled at them as Shuiichi hugged his older brother.

"Hi Shuiichi. Did you have a good time on your field trip." He asked.

Shuiichi smiled, "It was pretty fun, but I'm glad to be home." He replied. Shiori smiled, "Now that we're all here. Who wants pancakes?" She asked.

Shuiichi raised his hand into the air, while Kurama, and his father chuckled. Shiori giggled and walked back into the kitchen Shuiichi and her husband following.

Kurama's smile faded as he looked back up the stairs with a worry expression. 'I hope you rest wellHiei. You deserve it.' He thought following his family into the kitchen.

I hope you like this chapter. Ok I have a question. Does Kurama know that Hiei is the Forbidden Child? Cause I read some fics he does and some he doesn't. I would really like it if someone told me!

Till next time!
