A.N.-Here's that update! I'm not sure how I'll end this . . . but eventually, it'll have to come to an end. Just NOT yet. LOL.
Chapter 11: Final Days: one
When I entered my bedroom, Hiei wasn't anywhere in sight. I knew he wasn't in the bathroom, because that door was torn down, and the bathroom, itself, was an utter mess. Mud-tracks, dirt, and every other thing still marred the floor, walls, tub, and sink.
Hiei never showed it, but I knew he didn't like to go into filthy places . . . even if he was the cause of the mess . . .
I left the room, still not knowing where my little koorime was. I checked Mother's room, but only peeked in. I knew Hiei wouldn't dare you near that.
He claimed she smelt 'too ningen' for his taste. He 'didn't want the smell to stick to him'. Like humans had some type of disgusting smell . . . it wasn't a fantastic scent, but it didn't stink either . . .
Perhaps I have gotten used to the smell, my ningen body, after all, has the same, though slightly rosy, scent . . .
Hiei was suppressing his ki, but I know he hadn't left the house. It was too wet, and cold for him to actually leave. I'm sure he would rather take a bath then go out into the rain to avoid one.
As I was walking back down the hall, I passed Shui-kun's room. The door was ajar, but I figured Hiei wasn't in there, either. Shui-kun smelt just as ningen as mother did . . .
But just to be safe, I checked. My younger brother didn't have a bathroom adjoined to his room like I did, so he used the bathroom in the hallway. His room had no windows. It was like a really big closet.
One more room down. Hiei wasn't in Shui-kun's room. I walked across the hall, and pushed open the bathroom door.
We always kept it shut, because . . . well . . . out of habit, when we-anyone in the house-walked out of the bathroom, they closed the door behind them.
When I opened the door, I spotted Hiei sitting on the toilet seat, on his hunches. He wasn't using it; the lid was down.
But that wasn't too important.
The important, and most attention-grabbing thing was that he didn't have on any clothes . . .
"Fine." Was all he said.
"Fine?" I repeated, "What are you talking about?"
Glaring, as he always did, Hiei said, "I'll take the damn bath . . . "
I tried not to look too happy, "Great, "I said, "I'll go find you something to wear, you start the bath."
I know he would have preferred a shower, but Hiei didn't know how to work this faucet. He only knew how to use the one in my bathroom, which was specially designed and different from others in the house.
So, nonetheless, Hiei would have to take a bath . . . and I intended to bathe him.
When I returned to the bathroom a few minutes later, with a T-shirt(which would be far too big for Hiei) and some shorts(with drawstrings, so I could tie it tightly on his hips), Hiei was still sitting on the seat, naked. The tub was still empty, as expected.
"Why haven't you started the bath?" I asked, smiling knowingly.
Hiei shrugged, "Don't know how to use this thing . . . " He gestured toward the bathtub faucet.
"Oh." I smiled, "Let me."
Setting the clothes on a rack, I started the bath. making sure the water was extra hot. Hiei had a thing for heat, obviously, but many people liked to bathe in hot water, me especially. Maybe I'll join him.
While the tub filled up, I walked out of the bathroom, grabbed a cloth and towel from the linen closet. When I came back, Hiei was getting into the bath, calmly.
Which was unusual, because earlier he was bitching about taking a bath, but now he just calmly steps into one . . . Maybe he's sleepy . . . Dragon usually is a lot more cooperative when he's tired . . .
Or maybe something's wrong. I could just openly ask him but Hiei wouldn't respond the way I would have wanted . . . But just to make sure . . .
"Hiei, is something wrong?"
He looked over at me for a moment, before muttering "no."
I shook my head, "if you say so."
When he sat down in the tub, I went to close the door. Hiei was being suspiciously calm, but I just couldn't figure out why . . .
I sat on the floor beside the bathtub, and dropped the cloth into the water. Picking it up again, I wrung the water out onto Hiei's shoulder. I did the same to his other shoulder, and the rest of his upper torso, until he was all wet. Then, reaching for the soap, I lathered up the rag, and began to clean Hiei off.
He sat there, quietly, the whole time while I cleaned him off, until I got the his lower . . . section.
I noticed Hiei was watching me closely as I dipped the cloth, again, in the bath water, and lathered it up. I motioned for him to stand up, and when he did, I knew he regretted it instantly.
His . . . well . . . not to be blunt, but his . . . lower essentials were just inches from my face! I, yes, that's right, me, Kurama, blushed. It wasn't like I was some raging schoolboy, but just having Hiei stand in front of you naked could have even the most stoic person blushing!
I stood up immediately, handing Hiei the rag, "Here, " I said, "Wipe yourself."
Dragon must have noticed my behavior . . . I was, after all, blushing and looking away . . .
"What's wrong, Fox? A little shy?"
I could tell he was smirking, even without looking at him . . .
The problem with this whole scenario was, not that I was being shy, but that I couldn't act on my urges. I had to, simply put, look away, or end up screwing Hiei into the bathtub.
I did tell mother that Hiei and I would never even think of doing such a thing in the house with her in it, also. I have lied to her enough . . . the least I could do is keep this promise . . .
And besides, I really don't think she needs to hear her only son screaming to the top of his lungs, in pleasure. And oh man, what if she happened to mistake it for pain, and came rushing up stairs, and catches him and Hiei . . . UGH! Just the idea of it disturbs me so.
Hiei took the cloth from my outstretched hand, and smirked noticeably. "It's okay, Fox. I am able to clean myself . . . " He snorted, "I highly doubt you could do it looking the other way, anyhow."
I laughed nervously, "Yea . . . about that . . . Hiei, you know I usually am not like this . . . It just so happens that I mentioned to mother we wouldn't even think of doing anything . . . sexual with her in the house . . . " I looked out the corner of my eyes at him, "And looking at you, all foamed up, and doused in water, is a sexy-as-hell sight . . . "
Hiei snorted a bit, before flicking some water on me, "Stunning observation, Fox, " Hiei said sarcastically, "Now notice how hard you're getting, and announce it to the world."
I laughed nervously again. Damn . . . I really was getting an erection . . . Maybe Hiei could bathe alone . . . Was I really needed in here, anyhow? ...
"Hiei-koi, I'm going to go down and help mother, in the kitchen. There is something for you to wear on the towel rack . . . come down when you're done."
Hiei snorted loudly, snarling rudely, "You're just going to leave me here . . . Just like that?"
I turned slightly, looking out the corner of my eyes, at him, "Well . . . There's not much else I could do here. We really can't do anything . . . "
Hiei glared (though I could barely see it, I felt it). "Nothing to do? I'm currently half-cleaned, and barely know what I'm doing!"
I laughed slightly, " Are you asking for help?"
Snorting, yet again, Hiei said, "Doesn't matter. You can't do anything, anyhow."
Smiling, I said, "Well . . . since you asked so nicely . . . who am I to deny such a sexy-and naked-hi-youkai his request . . . "
Hiei was silent a moment before I felt something wet smack me on the back of the head!
Turning suddenly, to face Hiei, I saw him smirking. "You're already wet, now, " He said, "You might as well join me."
I smiled, looking down at the wet cloth Hiei was supposed to be bathing with . . . "You smart little . . . That's okay, Hiei . . . I have something for you, too." I said unbuttoning my top.
Dragon just smirked, "Really, fox? ...but your mother's down stairs . . . "
Ignoring him, I stepped out of my clothes, and into the bathtub with Hiei . . .
---TBC---
A.N.- Sorry, again for the lateness. I know, by now, my apologies aren't worth shit, but I still feel the need to say it. Um . . . RL's been a pain. So much is going on! And I know the chapter's short, but I tried to get an update up ASAP. I'm kinda of anxious to finish this off. I have other idea(s) for fics, but I don't think I could write them anytime soon. Perhaps I'll post them as a challenge . . .
Just a heads up . . . this fic will most likely end with an embarrassing moment . . . but you'll know it's the end because I'll say so(and also, there won't be a "---TBC---" sign at the end) . . . By the way, the end will be coming soon . . . just letting you all know.
Also, if you want to be notified of my updates, or post your own fics for people in the group to read, then join my Yahoo! Group : Yaoi Pocky. The link is on my profile page!
