Hiei walked past Kurama, searching through the crowd for destiny. Kurama looked over Arianna's head at Hiei and smiled "who are you looking for?"

"Young girl… black hair, tiny skirt, red shirt, blue eye-"he stopped and turned, staring at Kurama, a light blush on his cheeks. "She took something from me…" he said in a aggressive tone, trying to make it look like something it wasn't. Kurama smirked a little a nodded.

"And what did she take from you exactly?"

"That's none of your concern, have you seen her or not?"

"I saw a girl who fits that description go down that hall, but I don't believe she had anything that might have belonged to you…"he teased, knowing exactly what was going on.

"Hn" Hiei shot him a glare but Kurama could tell he was thankful for his directions. Arianna looked up at him and smiled, hugging him around the chest, his hands resting on her lower back. She sighed softly and smiled wide. Her cheek was pressed against his chest as she listened to the rhythm of his heartbeat. He rubbed her back lightly and pulled away slowly as the song ended "would you like something to eat?" he asked, looking down at her. She nodded slowly and stared into his amazingly green eyes. He smiled softly, thankful that she had opened up to him so quickly.

"Yes please"

"What would you like me to get you?"

"Hmm… just some chips and a little punch please?" he smiled and nodded, kissing her cheek ever so lightly.

"Of course, anything you wish" he walked over to the snack table. Arianna blushed and sat down, rubbing her legs gently. They ached and pained from standing so long. After a moment or so, Kurama came back and handed her a cup and a plate. "Here you are" she smiled gratefully and took them.

"Thank you… you're the nicest person I've ever met," she admitted in a mouse like tone. He smiled and ran a hand through her hair.

"It's easy to be nice to someone as sweet and beautiful as you" he complimented. She blushed and looked up at him, a smile on her face that she couldn't remove for the life of her. He kissed the top of her head and sat next to her, a plate of his own resting on his lap.

Hiei walked down the hall, still in search of this girl he couldn't seem to get out of his head. Who was she and why did she look so familiar? He looked over and saw destiny, who was leaning against a wall. A guy was in front of her with his hand on the wall next to her head. He seemed to be looking her up and down from Hiei's point of view. He stepped closer and watched a second or two. He couldn't hear what they were saying but destiny was laughing and giggling and having a good time from the looks of it. Hiei turned to leave, realizing she probably didn't want some old 17 year old butting into her social life, when he heard a gasp and a slight yelp. He spun around to see the guy standing closer to her now, his hands on her hips and the spaghetti strap on her shirt ripped, showing a black strapless bra. Hiei could see fear and panic in her eyes. He silently advanced on him. He grabbed his shoulder and spun him around, punching him hard in the face. The force from the punch sent the guy tumbling backwards into the wall. Destiny whimpered and slid down the to floor, her legs pressed tightly to her chest as she cried silently against her knees. He suppressed a sigh and took off his jacket, sliding it around her shoulders. "Two times in less then an hour… and you haven't even had sex yet… the school sluts must be jealous…" he mumbled absentmindedly, leaning against the wall next to her. She cried silently into her knees, her small fragile body trembling under his jacket. He sighed and held out a hand. "Come on…" she looked up at him slowly, wiping tears from her eyes. She stared at his hand curiously and then back at his face. "I'm gunna take you home" she gasped and shook her head quickly, panic in her eyes.

"No! You can't!"

"And why not?" he asked curiously. He stood in front of her, staring at her skeptically.

"... well…" her gaze darted around as she tried to think quickly. "My dad and I made a deal… he said if I come home before twelve tonight… then I am too irresponsible to stay out late… but if I stay out till twelve or later and can handle any problem with out his help I can stay out as long as I want any night of the week…" she said quickly. He shook his head slightly, knowing very well that she was lying, but he could tell that she really didn't want to go home.

"Fine… I'll bring you to my house… but this is the only time I'm gunna do this…so don't get used to it… if this ever happens again you're going home got it small fry?" she nodded slowly and looked down. "Now get up and come with me…" he said as he walked off towards the front door. She got up and chased after him like a scared little puppy who had just found a new owner. He sat down on his motorcycle and handed a helmet to her "here… you might need this" she took it and blushed, putting it on slowly. She was a bit scared, never riding on a motorcycle before. She got on slowly, biting her lip nervously. He put a helmet on as well and started the bike up. "Hold on…" she jumped and nodded as she quickly slid the jacket onto her arms and hugged him around the waist tightly. He chuckled to himself at how tight she was holding. He could tell she was scared. He slowly drove down the street, making sure not to scare her too much. "You ok back there?" he called, feeling her loosen up a little. She nodded and smiled.

"Yeah! This is pretty cool!" she said happily, still hugging him tightly.

Hiei parked the motor cycle in the driveway and got off. He waited for her to get off and then he walked inside. She followed quickly, holding his jacket shut around her. She walked in and looked around but didn't have long to take everything in. Hiei took her hand and pulled her upstairs quickly. He walked her into his room and shut the door. He sat her on his bed and locked the door. She blushed and looked up at him, unsure if she should trust him. She already knew he was much stronger so if he wasn't trust worthy and was planning on doing what she suspected her only hope would be to get out of there fast. She looked over at the window, seeing a tree in front of it. She thought silently about how she could easily climb down it if she needed to. He saw her staring out the window and then sat in a chair in front of her. "Destiny…" she jumped and looked at him, biting her lip again.

"Mhm?" she murmured, shaking a little. He sighed and hung his head slightly.

"First off stop biting your lip… it's gunna start to bleed and I don't feel like playing doctor tonight. And I'm not gunna try anything with you… stop being dumb… you're just a little kid…" he said, getting up and walking to his closet. She nodded slowly, secretly upset that he wasn't even interested in her. He got some sheets and a pillow from his closer and put them on a bed opposite the one she was on. She watched him silently, his muscles rippling as he slid his shirt off. He looked over and held back a blush. "You don't mind if I change in front of you do you?" he asked, almost forgetting that she was there since she was so shy and quiet. She shook her head and looked away. He nodded and slid his pants off. He slid on a pair of black pajama pants and left his shirt off. She looked at him again and watched him climb into the bed. She looked around her, noticing a few pillows on his bed. He opened an eye and looked at her "something wrong?" she shook her head quickly and looked down, her hands folded in her lap as she sat awkwardly on the edge of the bed. "Then lay down small fry…" she blushed and looked up at him a bit surprised. He sighed and rolled his eyes "girls… lay down in the bed and go to sleep… I'll take u home in the morning. She nodded and undid her shoes, climbing timidly into his bed. She curled up tight under his covers. She hugged a pillow, her head resting by the top of it. Her back was to him, her body almost pressed against the wall. He sat up on his elbows and watched her quietly till he was sure she was asleep. After a few moments of watching her he got up and walked over slowly, pulling the covers up over her more as if she were his very own child.

(Sorry that there's not much about Arianna and Kurama in this one… I'll write more about them later)
