I still don't own Yu Yu Hakusho or Baltigoa! Today's chapter (as promised) is super long!
Skip three weeks
I stared at the work in front of me, then back at Kurama, before slamming my head on the table and groaning,
"More work!?" I groaned, Koenma already had me worked to the bone! He smiled, sitting with me,
"Yes, I thought it would be a good idea to teach you more aboutthe human world, this was my answer." I pouted,
"Boo~ you're no fun!" He chuckled at my childishness,
"Work, it will help clear your mind," he hinted. I smiled lightly, leaning over and kissing him,
"You are also distracting," I muttered as he helped me with 'world history' as he called it. I had taken up residence at his house instead of the temple, and Kuronue loved to tease me about it nonstop. I sighed again, leaning on the redhead to try and get out of work. He made me look him in the eyes,
"B." I nodded,
"Kurama?" he stared at me, an amused glint in his eyes as he leaned close to my ear,
"Do. Your. Work." I flushed a bright red, falling out of my chair from his hot breath in my ear,
"DON'T DO THAT!" I shouted. He laughed, helping me up as I stuck my tongue out at him, "You enjoy this way too much," I pouted. He shrugged, nodding,
"I do," he agreed. I laughed and looked back at the work, sighing,
"Darn," I muttered, letting him help me. I knew most of it since I lived in that time period. Besides, most of the wars were caused by bored demons. I yawned lightly, my eyes shutting a bit as I leaned on his shoulder. He chuckled lightly, picking me up and walking to my room. I smiled as he set me down on the bed, covering me up and kissing my forehead. I tiredly brushed his bangs back, kissing his lips softly before closing my eyes completely. "Night Kurama."
"Goodnight B."

"Hey Kurama," I asked. he looked up from his book, he'd just gotten back from work, so he was free. I smiled as I looked out the window, "I want to tell you a story, is that okay?" I asked softly.
"Of course." I saw him smile from the reflection in the glass. I took a deep breath,
"Okay then. Once, I was a heartless assassin, always doing what I could to get paid. I turned to thieving, and on one of my raids, I met a bat demon named Kuronue. I later met his partner Yoko, they wanted me to join their band of thieves," I began my tale, not leaving anything out. When I was through, I was smiling faintly at all the memories. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't notice Kurama behind me until he wrapped his arms around my waist.
Kurama POV
I smiled lightly as she told me her, err, our story really. The only difference was now it was in her point of view. I walked over to her, lightly wrapping my arms around her waist and kissing the side of her neck,
"Thank you for telling me this," I murmured. She set her head on mine, still staring out the window, watching the city below. We both jumped when her communicator buzzed. She pulled it out, her head still on mine,
"Hello?" Koenma's face appeared,
"B, we have another mission," she groaned, "there has been demon sighting nearby." I ignored the rest as he told her the information, coming back to earth as she snapped it shut, groaning.
"I'll be back later okay?" she asked. I smiled, getting off of her,
"Sure, I'll see you soon?" She nodded and went to her room to change. When she came back out I kissed her forehead, "Bye."
"Bye Kurama." With that she went out the door. I sat back on the couch and went back to my book, easing my mind for the night.

Next day Kurama POV
I was still waiting for B when the phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Mister Kurama! B is hurt and isn't waking up! Please come as soon as possible!" Yukina's frantic voice answered on the other end. My heart dropped,
"I'm on my way."

I held her hand tightly as she laid on the bed. The demon she fought had knocked her unconscious and gave her a deep side wound. I looked up when she whimpered a bit, squeezing my hand as her eyes tightened,
"Kur… ama," she whispered, opening her eyes slowly.
"I'm here," I cooed. She looked over at me, wincing as she turned. I smiled, "Hello." She smiled lightly in return,
"Hey, what happened?" I sighed,
"You have a deep gash to the ribs and the demon had knocked you unconscious." She frowned,
"That sucks." I chuckled,
"That it does," I agreed. She closed her eyes again,
"Yeah I'm fine, just a bit sore," I figured she was talking to Kuronue so I didn't ask. I scoffed,
"You need to sleep, that was a deep gash B." She rolled her eyes but did as told, easily drifting off. I smiled lightly, standing up and kissing her forehead before going to see Yukina.
"How is she?" the little koorime asked worriedly. I smiled,
"She just woke up, but I told her to sleep." She smiled in relief,
"That's good." I stretched, having spent the last three hours on the hard chair, before starting to help her with dinner.
0*0*0*0*0*
I smiled at the sleeping girl, gently shaking her awake,
"B, wake up you need to eat." She groaned, slowly opening her eyes,
"Where's the food?" I laughed, helping her sit up before handing her the bowl. We sat in comfortable silence as she ate, both of us lost in our thoughts. She fell asleep soon after she finished the meal, the only sounds in the room was our breathing. I yawned, laying my head down on the bed, closing my own eyes.
When I woke up B was sitting by the window, talking to Kuronue.
"Yes, I know," she said quietly. "I've already told him the story, remember? Yes, it will be hard and awkward, but it's fine." "No, I don't think he'll leave me because of it." She sighed, "Thanks." She turned to me as I yawned, "Morning." I smiled, knowing she was talking about Yoko's death date,
"Good morning, are you feeling better?" She nodded,
"Sore but fine." I nodded, standing up and stretching before walking over and kissing her cheek.
"I need to change your bandages," I stated, causing her to blush but nod. She walked over to the bed and lifted up her shirt, showing red stained bandages around her torso. I gently unwrapped them, apologizing when she winced. I saw that the gash had healed easily to a long scab from the tip of her hip to the bottom rib. I gently ran my fingers over it causing her to shiver in pleasure, I smirked a bit as I wrapped the new bandages around her. when I was done I sat with her on the bed, my hands gently around her waist as to not re-open her wounds. I laid my head on hers,
"Thanks." She said quietly. I smiled,
"Welcome." She sighed,
"Yoko's death is tomorrow you know." I tightened my hold on her a bit,
"And we will be fine." She laughed lightly, squirming a bit to stand up,
"I need to call Koenma real quick." I nodded and watched her leave, sighing,
'Tomorrow should be fun!' I thought sarcastically, filled with dread.
B POV
"Hello?" Koenma's face appeared on the screen. I smiled weakly,
"Hey, can I have the day off tomorrow?" I asked quietly. He blinked,
"Okay…" I smiled,
"Thanks." He nodded in response as I shut the compact. Sighing, I walked back into the room, avoiding eye contact with the redhead. He sighed lightly and walked over as I sat on the windowsill. He gently grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him. I frowned and put my eyesight to the ground, too ashamed to look at him for long.
"Hey, what's wrong?" he asked. I shook my head,
"Nothing."
"If you don't tell me, you'll regret it," he said softly. I thought about how to word it,
"I… I'm not sure what to do," I stated vaguely.
"About what?"
"Can we talk about this later? I really don't want to talk right now," I asked. I looked up to see him frown but nod,
"Okay." I stood up and walked past him,
"I'll be in the woods." I ignored the soreness in in my side and walked out of the temple.
'You okay B?' Kuronue asked. I took him off of my neck,
"I said I didn't want to talk okay?" I snapped, shoving the pendant in my pocket. I pushed the feeling of guilt away and focused on running through the thick forest. I didn't know what to do, it was Yoko's death tomorrow but I have feelings for Kurama as well! I felt like I was betraying both of them. I growled darkly as I jumped in one of the trees. I made myself comfortable and leaned my head on the rough bark, looking out at the sunset. I smiled lightly, thinking about my time with both guys, both Kurama and Yoko. I froze when an unwanted thought crept into my mind,
'You're in love with Kurama.'
