When An Angel Falls
Chapter 4: Falling for you
It was then, when Hiei stumbled upon Kurama weeping helplessly in the
hallway, that he realized how much he loved him, and how much he wanted to
be with him, comfort him, hold him, touch him.
"Hello." Kurama said softly and wiped away his tears when Hiei walked up.
"Why were you crying?" he asked with concern. "I just need a break, would
you like to get some lunch?" he asked with a soft smile. "I don't need to
eat, but I will accompany you." Hiei never wished he could eat until now.
"Oh, by the way this is my dog, Frank." Kurama pulled the leash of a big
golden retriever. "I know, he told me." Hiei patted the dog's head. "Oh,
what else did he tell you?" he laughed. "That you never sleep, you're
always sad, and you don't really love that girl." Hiei shrugged. It was
true, he could talk to the dog, remember, angels can't lie.
Kurama looked surprised. "You mean Ayiko?" he asked. 'Ayiko' Hiei thought
with fire. "How did you know that?" he asked softly, but suspiciously.
***********************Flashback******************************
"Will you marry me?" Ayiko held up a little black box. "Huh?" Kurama looked
up shocked. "I know the guy is supposed to propose, but hey, we're grown-
ups and we can handle it, and I know we both feel the same way, and we love
each other, and I know it will all work out, so will you marry me?" she
asked again. "I...I...I don't...I" Kurama stuttered too shocked. "Look, you
don't have to tell me right now, just think about it ok?" she got up,
kissed him and walked away.
******************End Flashback*******************************
"What is love anyways?" Hiei asked. "It's a chemical reaction in your blood
that...oh, never mind, I don't know, I don't think anyone does." Kurama
looked upset. "Oh! I'm going to have to cancel that lunch, you can take a
rain-check, I have a check-up appointment." Kurama excused himself and got
up. He walked away, turned and waved, then turned the corner. 'What's a
rain-check' Hiei thought.

"Breath in." commanded Kurama as he held the stethoscope up to Kuwabara's
heart. "Perfect." He smiled and took the stethoscope off. "Your friend's a
little different." Kurama was still confused about what Hiei had told him.
"Hiei?" Kuwabara asked. Kurama just nodded. "He said he talked to my dog,
and everything he told me was right, but how did he know all that?" he
looked seriously weirded out so Kuwabara decided he maybe should know the
truth.
"He can talk to dogs, he can talk to anything living. He never sleeps, he
never eats, no one can see him unless he chooses, he cannot feel pain, but
he can feel love." He explained. "What is he, or it?" Kurama didn't believe
a word out of his mouth.
"An angel."
"An angel? Oh, yeah there's something you see every day, an angel. Good
one, you almost had me there." Kurama said sarcastically, yet nervously.
"I'm not kidding." Kuwabara looked down, "In fact, I was one too."
"But you're human." Kurama protested.
"I am human, but was an angel."
"How did you do it?"
"You fall."
"Fall?"
"Yes, Hiei can be human, all he has to do is fall."
"Are there others like you?"
"Yes, not much, they don't like to be reminded of the old ways, but they're
out there." Kuwabara looked out and lit a cigarette.
"I'll be back to check on you later, I have to go right no." Kurama stood
and dusted himself off. "Yeah, sure, see ya doc." Kuwabara alsostood up.
"Wait, does your sister know?" Kurama asked. "No, I think it would be too
much of a strain on her. I mean one minute I'm dead, the next I'm alive,
she just was thankful with the fact that I'm alive and never bothered with
the details." Kuwabara stepped on the butt of his cigarette. Kurama smiled
and walked away.
Ok, I know it might be short, but hang in there.
