Hallo!

A new chapter!

This one delves a little more into Kaoru's plans and the HikaKao relationship, even though it's kinda short.

Mkay…I don't own Hika or Kao.

Enjoy!

We walked in silence aside from the occasionally asking of where we were actually walking, a question to which I had no answer.

Eventually we had made it into London and were settling in one of the alleys I was so familiar with. It wasn't as cold as I thought it would be at this time in the evening and to a certain extend it was the perfect temperature.

'Okay so what's the plan? I assume you have one yes?' Hikaru elbowed me in the ribs, with not enough force to cause me pain if that was his aim.

'Awww…I was planning on keeping it a secret. You don't want to ruin my fun do you Hika?' He shot a glare at me to which I replied with a smirk. 'We will go about our lives as regular citizens. We don't want to make it seem like we're running.'

'Well then why did we run away from my home?' He was getting very confused I could by his face.

'I'm getting there. We need to make it seem like we have no idea of his existence. For all we know he could be sending human slaves out to stalk us. We needed to run from the home before suspicions corrupted. Clear so far?'

'Maybe. Continue.' His eyebrows were now furrowed in concentration as he took in the details.

'Tomorrow we will visit the market, and do normal human things. It will seem to the public like we are but three normal young adults. No one will at all suspect we are a heart eater, Doppelgänger and slave to the undead. But each moment we will move closer to our target, who we shall attack and destroy.'

'Okay I get that. But our target?'

'Our target is Aleksander of course. I thought even you would be able to figure that out.' I felt the corners of my mouth twitching but tried desperately not to grin. The ball of Hikaru's hand came into contact with my temple, but it still didn't affect me.

'Where would this Aleksander be, genius?'

'Where ever Sophia says he resides.' I gestured to the maid who had fallen asleep with her head resting on one of the cases we had brought with us.

'Do you like her?' Hikaru was now looking straight ahead avoiding eye contact with me but I could sense his heart beat speeding up. I decided I would have some fun with this.

'Well…I suppose so…She is beautiful.' I smiled in a way that would make it seem I was in love. I didn't love Hikaru, but I knew he loved me so why not toy with him.

'Well that's nice. I hope you two find love someday and elope and reproduce a bunch of human heart eater hybrid children.'

'Ouch Hikaru. Why so bitter?'

'Does what we did a couple of days ago mean nothing to you Kaoru?' I wasn't expecting that.

'Well…I thought you didn't like it. You did say it was disgusting. Dirty. A sin.' All teasing was gone now. This was serious.

'But I loved it. It felt so…dangerous, and risky. It excited me Kaoru.' His voice had filled with adrenaline and he let out a pleasured sigh as if recalling the event had given him a rush of pleasure.

Minutes passed before I sighed and turned to face Hikaru, placing my hand on his cheek.

'I enjoyed it too.' I admitted, moving my hand to the back of Hikaru's neck, pulling him towards me so our faces were just inches apart. 'Something Aleksander once told me was that it's better to live a short life of taking risks than a long life of what ifs.'

'And that…is so true…' He leant forward and kissed me softly and slowly, as I moved my tongue to trace along his bottom lip. I broke the kiss soon after and yawned.

'We have a long day ahead. I suggest we follow Sophia's lead and get some rest.' I close my eyes and rested my head against the wall. Hikaru yawned too and laid his head on my arm.

'I suppose so.' Things were silent for a moment. 'Wait a minute. Why were you taking risks with Aleksander!'

'Go to sleep Hikaru.'

'No! I demand you tell me now! I have a right to know Kaoru!'

'I'm ignoring you now.'

'KaoKao~! Please I thought you loved me!' I sighed and wrapped my arm around his shoulders, stroking his hair, before moving my hand down his body and round his waist. That seemed to shut him up.

'I thought so too, Hika.'

I placed a soft kiss on his forehead before closing my eyes once again and drifting off to the sound of Hikaru's breathing.

Maybe it wasn't an illusion. Maybe it was just me denying emotion. But what every it may be, I wasn't about to let my guard down. If I was anything I was stubborn, so not matter what trickery was used on me, I refused to believe that I was actually in love with Hikaru. Even he couldn't make me except that.


Tharrr.

Sorry that it's so short and sorry if it kinda sucked.

I added more Hikaru jealousy humour because it's fun to write and apparently fun to read too :]

Also, for fans of black butler it had been voted best anime in NEO. So yay :D

So yup…R&R!
