Reaching Your Limits: A YYH alternate universe
Episode 3: Sweet Moments. A Quiet Love.
Yukina smiled at the human walking next to her, unable to help a small giggle
when he blushed bright red. Even if he was human, Kazuma-kun was the nicest
person that she had ever met. Today was their second day of classes and she had
just received all of the books she would be needing if she were to stay the rest
of the year. Despite the fact that it was very much out of his way, Kazuma-kun
had volunteered to help her bring them home.
He really was handsome, so strong and tall. And, despite the fact that she had
heard he was a well-known delinquent in the area, with a gang and everything,
she knew that he really was a sweet person. It was obvious enough in the way
that he always blushed when he spoke to her, how polite he was when he was
around her, and in the fact that he tried to help with anything that might be a
burden.
"Thank you for coming with me, Kazuma-kun," she said.
If anything, his face turned even more red. It wasn't a flattering color, but
she still thought it looked adorable. "That's no problem, Yukina-chan!" he said
quickly. "If you ever need my help, all you have to do is ask!"
Laughing a little, she nodded. "That's very kind of you," she replied.
"So, you and your brother just moved into this temple?" Kazuma questioned when
there was a long stretch of silence between them.
Nodding, Yukina turned her eyes back in the direction of the path they were
taking through the trees. They would come to the stairway soon, which lead half
way up the mountain to Genkai's temple. She couldn't help but feel disappointed
that her time with Kazuma would end so soon.
"We moved here about four days ago. Our family lives in another part of Japan,
but we needed to come here for education purposes," Yukina explained, recalling
the history which they had been given in case such questions were asked.
"Luckily, Genkai-sempai is a friend of the family and allowed us to stay for as
long as we needed while we go to school."
"It must be a long distance to travel in the morning. You must have to wake up
early to walk here in time," Kazuma exclaimed.
Laughing, Yukina shook her head. "We don't walk in the morning. Genkai drops us
off near the school on her way into the city. I'm not sure what she does while
she is in there, but she leaves at the same time as we need to in order to get
to school," she replied.
She didn't like to lie, but she couldn't exactly tell him that Hiei perched her
on his back and ran, could she?
"That is very nice of her," Kazuma replied. "I'm glad that you decided to come
to my school, or I may of never met you!"
Hearing him say such words, Yukina smiled brightly, although she felt a little
sad at the same time. To think that she might of never met such a complex, yet
simple at the same time, person such a Kuwabara Kazuma. Now that she knew him,
it would of been a tragedy to think that she might not have. If she wasn't
careful, she could make a liar out of herself and fall for this human.
As though hearing her thoughts; which might even of been possible by his
protective-brother-radar; Hiei appeared at the base of the stairway. He was
eyeing Kazuma darkly, and she noticed that Kazuma was returning the look.
"Ah, aniki," she said, smiling as she ran forward and hugged Hiei. "I want you
to meet my classmate, Kuwabara Kazuma. He is helping me bring home my school
books, since they proved to be too heavy for me to carry," she said.
Hiei raised an eyebrow at her and she gave him a subtle poke in the ribs. They
both knew that, although she was not strong physical person, her demonic
strength would of been enough to carry the books. However, that would of
completely ruined the chance to get to know Kazuma better.
Still smiling, she turned to the student. He seemed to be at a loss of what to
say or do. "Kazuma-kun, I would like you to meet my twin brother, Hiei," she
introduced.
Kazuma was quiet for a moment, then nodded. "Nice to meet you. The two of you
don't look much alike. Although, I now that I see you next to each other, the
resemblence is a little easier to spot," he commented.
Yukina hesitated for a moment, forcing herself not to get upset. Hiei would not
reply to such a comment, she knew, so she struggled for something to say. "My
brother takes after my father. I take after my mother," was what she finally
settled with.
As though sensing that he'd said something wrong, Kazuma grimaced a little.
"Well, it is obvious enough seeing you together anyway, though," he said with a
nervous laugh. "You have the same eyes, and your love for each other is
obvious."
Yukina smiled and nodded, giving her brother a quick hug that he didn't return.
She wasn't upset. Although she knew he loved her deeply, he rarely returned her
hugs when she gave them. Hiei had never been the type to enjoy being touched in
any way.
"I'll take Yukina's books now," Hiei stated, holding out his hands.
Unable to refuse, Kazuma handed them over. "Uh, well. I guess I had better get
going. I'll see you in class tomorrow, Yukina-chan," he said, bowing to her even
as he shivered from the dark glare Hiei fixed on him.
Smiling, Yukina nodded and returned the bow. "I look forward to your tutoring
during lunch," she replied. With a final wave, Kazuma turned and left, making
his way back through the pathway in the trees.
When she turned around, Yukina found that Hiei was scowling at her. "Don't be so
defensive, aniki!" she exclaimed, giggling as she took his arm and began walking
up the stairs with him. However, she had to admit that a large part of her
couldn't wait until tomorrow when she would be able to spend more time with
Kuwabara Kazuma.

"I heard that Kuwabara Kazuma wants to ask out Yuuki Yukina," Keiko commented.
Yuusuke glanced at her sideways. "Already? She just transfered into his class
yesterday," he commented. He knew the other only through reputation and their
own occasional fights. Kuwabara seemed like an okay guy, even if he was a little
short in grey matter.
Smiling, Keiko sat down next to him on the couch and snuggled into the crook of
his arm. "Asa-chan was talking about it. She's in their class," she told him,
talking about one of her closest friends. "He offered to tutor her and she
accepted, despite the fact that the teacher recommended against it. Asa-chan
told me that he acts like a completely different person around her, refusing to
swear or get into fights while she's around."
"Sounds like love," Yuusuke said sarcastically, earning himself a punch to the
back of the head.
"I'm jealous!" Keiko exclaimed. "Her boyfriend tries to impress her by acting
like a gentleman, while I end up with a barbarian like you!"
Yuusuke tilted his head at her, then grinned and stole a quick kiss from her
lips before jumping from the couch. "If I acted any differently, then you would
think I was boring!" he insisted.
"You are insufferable!" Keiko exclaimed, throwing her hands into the air. Still,
she couldn't help but laugh as well. It was true, after all.
Winking, Yuusuke gathered his things. It was time that he went home. Keiko would
never let him live it down if he didn't complete the homework assignment that
they had been given earlier. As Keiko was the class representative, the two of
them were very different from each other, but he tried to please her when he
could.
As he gave her a breif kiss before leaving, Yuusuke found his mind wandering. He
had seen Yuuki Yukina that day, walking home with Kuwabara. Even though he
hadn't spoken to her, something about her had caused a strange sensation to work
its way down Yuusuke's back. Not the same, almost threatening sensation that
Hiei had caused, but something similar.
He had the feeling that there was more to the Yuuki twins than met the eye.
