Chapter two: A Crimson Smirk
The bell rang out though the small classroom bringing you back to the present. You quickly grabbed your purse which held the contents of your binder, a few notebooks, some lip gloss, a brush, and a small compact mirror. You dashed for Asuka before that Minamino boy could talk to you. Asuka just looked at you and started laughing. "It's not funny!!!", you protest "I have never been so embarrassed!!!" She just laughs harder as you roll your eyes. You give her a small wave as you dart off to P.E. You change quickly and go sit on your number, lucky number 3. The teacher walks out to the numbers where you are sitting and he walks up to you accompanied by a very hot guy. He had emotionless crimson eyes and a toned, sexy body with a face to match. You couldn't help but stare at his black gravity defying hair with a white starburst in the middle. 'How does he do that?' you wonder but snap out of it when the teacher calls you name.
"Shimizu", he says "this is Jaganshi Hiei, I want you to show him around the school then come back here for softball." You nod and he walks off. You stand up and smile.
"Hello Jaganshi Hiei. I'm Shimizu Chiaki. It's nice to meet you" you say and hold out your hand for him to shake. He looks at your hand and just ignores you. 'WHAT A JACKASS!!!' you think. "Well don't just stand there," you say and grab his wrist "come on!" you literally drag him all the way around the school. It only took you about 20 minutes though, he was a pretty fast walker. You both get back just in time to hear what game your playing today and the rules. "Awww!" you didn't care if this Hiei guy wasn't paying attention or not. You complained "We missed the warm up!" you pouted and went to leave to go sit on your number. You were surprised when Jaganshi appeared next to you and started to talk.
"You like training?" he asked with a slightly cold tone but you didn't let it bother you. At least he was talking, right? You looked over at him, smiled, and nodded. You laughed at Jaganshi when he had to sit on the only number left open, 13. He shot you a death glare and you just gave him on back. But instead of him if just looking away he kept eye contact with you. A smirk even crossed those gorgeous lips of his. You felt the flesh on your checks begin to flush and you quickly turned around. You're trying to listen to the rules of the game you're going to be playing today, softball, but are having trouble focusing when the hot guy behind you is playing with the silver tips of your hair! You feel your heartbeat start to speed when he gently tugged on a strand of your hair to get your attention. You turn your head slightly and whisper hoping the teacher won't notice and that the embassesment of first period can be avoided here as well. "Yes Jaganshi?"
"hn, what's your name again?" he asked slightly uninterested. You were shocked but a smile soon slid upon your soft, pink lips.
"Call me Chiaki" you say softly. He responds with "hn… Hiei." Your smile grows and you turn back around towards the teacher as you allow Hiei to play with the tips of your hair. The teacher has you get up and you all race to see who gets to the field first. You plan as always that you are gonna be the first to get there but Hiei is at your side running as fast as you were. You knew no one but a demon could beat you. So you speed up seeing if he could keep up but for some reason he stopped that's when you turn around just in time to run into a pole.
Everything goes black and you feel your body leaning back until you hit the hard, black asphalt below. You hear screams and fast footstep. Slowly your world comes back into focus, bright and painful. You feel a hot liquid rushing from your head and down the side of your face. You feel someone with warm, strong hands help you slowly up into a sitting position. You gently put you hand up to the side of your head where you feel the warm liquid escaping from, when you bring your hand back down you see that is covered in a warm, dark substance that made your stomach twist in knots, blood. You heart's once steady beat beings to start pounding gently underneath your left breast and your slow breathing starts to become slowly uneven. The next thing you know your starting to fall backwards once more as your world begins to do wild spins as if you're on a rollercoaster trying to break free of its restraints.
You shut your eyes praying that this pit of hell that you have just been thrown into will soon stop. Instead of feeling the cold ground beneath your head once more a very hard and very muscular chest is in its place. It's Hiei. "Just stay calm and stay awake," he muttered to you in his low, unemotional tone of voice "the nurse should be here soon." Your feel like you just ran 1,000 miles and your eyes are screaming in protest the longer you keep them open. With each second that passes by with your eyes still open their screaming only becomes louder. You begin to succumb to their wrenched lullaby as your eyelids slowly begin to cover your emerald eyes. You are suddenly shaken roughly as a sharp burst of pain is sent from your head and down your body in waves of fiery unpleasantness. It's was Hiei who was the culprit and you give a small whimper but the tone of his voice does not change. "Don't close your eyes." He tells you firmly "you have to stay awake. Understood?"
You turn your emerald gaze up towards Hiei's depths of crimson. Your soft lips gently tug into a small smile as you blink slowly in understanding. The collar of your gray P.E. shirt is now soaked and sticky with your dark red blood. You begin to panic much more when you grasp the knowledge of just how much of that vital red liquid has spilled out of you and continues to flow out of your head. You can feel your body slowly losing its calm composure, as your breathe becomes jagged, shallow, and fast, and your heart is galloping so hard in your chest you feel it will burst any second. Your world begins to slowly fade into a black abyss once more. You clench a fist full of Hiei's shirt when your breathing begins to become more painful with each breathe, as air is sharply pumped in and out of the sack like organs. You are suddenly wrapped into a blanket of warm, strong arms by Hiei as he whispers softly in your ear. "It's alright Chiaki. You're going to be fine but you need to calm down." Hiei's arms gently tighten around you and you feel as if your drowning in the warmth he is sending though every fiber of your small body. You feel your beating heart slowly returning to its natural rhythm as your breathing slowly starts to become even and soft. That is until you are ripped away from Hiei's arms and his warmth. A small prick of pain is in your arm as the soft lids of your eyes slowly begin to slip over your oceans of emerald.
'I'm sorry Hiei,' you think to your self weakly 'my eyes just wont stay open.' You catch once last glimpse of his crimson eyes before you are gently engulfed into darkness.
