'The Evil Math Teacher of Room 316'
(Psssst.... This has a lot of talking... Prepare for a strange conversations...)
Hiei looked down at Rei and sat down, still feeling a strong urge to slice off a few heads. He watched as Kurama's stunned look slowly dissolved into his usual cool, quiet, somehow girl attracting look. Liei spied the lingering murderous look in Hiei's eyes and said, " Minamino and I will go and sit outside, ok?"
Hiei watched as she hurriedly shoved Kurama out the door. Yusuke watched with an evil smirk slowly spreading across his face.
"I bet their first date will be tomorrow night... I wonder how well THAT will go if he turns into Youko...?" he mumbled under his breath.
"How much are you willing to bet on their first date, Urameshi? Five dollars at least, right?"
"Um, what ARE you guys talking about? I know those two definitely like each other, but who or what is Youko?" Rei questioned innocently.
"Nothing important Rei. You sure those two like each other?"
"What rock have you been living under?! Of COURSE they like each other you dolt! But your bet for their first date is way off. Their first date is definitely tonight."
"You're JOKING! Well, at least we hope you are Rei. But are you ENTIRELY SURE?" Yusuke and Kuwabara leaned towards her. Rei looked mildly surprised in such an interest in a little thing like a date, but Hiei was hiding rather protective thoughts.
'Get away from MY girl you weak HUMANS! SHE'S MINE!' he thought aggressively, wishing he had his katana. Then he tuned himself back into the conversation.
"Yeah... Minamino's the first guy Liei's ever told that much stuff to. She hasn't even told ME that much and we've been going to the same schools for 4 years." Rei stated calmly before shoving a chunk of fried rice onto her mouth.
Hiei smirked and asked, " Have you ever told anyone the amount of information that you blabbed when you were walking down the hallway with us?"
Rei turned a brilliant shade of deep red and poked her food nervously with a chopstick.
"Not really... I didn't think I said a lot..."
"Not enough for any one of us to figure out the name of your older brother."
"Oh? You wanna know his name? I can tell you if that's what you want."
"I don't want to know anymore about you. I already know your address, phone number, last name, age, weight, height, favorite colors and words...you get the point."
"You know her underwear size?!"
"No, she never even got close to mentioning it. But, before that, I don't think I quite got her dad's full name..."
"I think I said a bit much..."
"WELL DUH! DID YOU JUST NOTICE?!" Was Yusuke's reply to this response of Rei's. Hiei's response to Yusuke was a nearly three eyed death glare.
"Like your last Botany grade! Even I, Kuwabara the great, did better than THAT!" Kuwabara shouted.
"A 6 is very good for my interest in that subject. Honestly, I can't tell a rose from a posie... I'd prefer killing them and having Liei do my Botany homework, research, etc..."
"I got a 9 on my last Botany test!"
"Wow Kuwabara. We didn't know you were so very intelligent." Hiei stated calmly.
"What did YOU get on YOUR last test midget!? I bet YOU got a 1!"
"To make you feel better, and also for your information, I got a 45."
(outside, at Liei and Kurama's table)
"So, Liei, why do you and Rei have to share an apartment?"
"We don't have enough money by ourselves to have two different apartments. And Rei sleeps on the couch or in a tree every night, so we don't have to worry about people thinking we're some sicko lesbians or something."
Kurama laughed and then froze as weight rested on his chest. He looked down, turning several shades of scarlet at once. Liei was leaning against his chest gently, and she looked perfectly relaxed with a hand on his shoulder. He gulped and nudged her head. She looked up at him innocently, her copper eyes shimmering. She laughed instantly at his redness and moved away to relieve him of his embarrassment.
"Hey Minamino, I was thinking that...."
(In the Hectic Lunchroom of Every Youkai's Nightmares)
Rei smiled. Kuwabara was still going on about the 'midget' getting a better grade than him.
'Idiot... It's just a stupid grade... I don't see why he just can't get up and leave it...' She thought with a hint of amusement lacing the edges.
'He'd go berserk if he heard what Liei's score was... I bet she did better than anyone else in the school... Well, maybe not Minamino...He's really smart...'
Perhaps smart enough to...
'No... He wouldn't be able to. Liei and I have gone over this too many times for something wrong to happen. But I'll talk to her about the possibilities.' Rei thought while shaking her head.
"What's wrong Rei? You look worried about something." Keiko asked quietly.
"Oh, nothing Keiko. I was just wondering how Liei's test score would compare to Minamino's."
"They both are really smart. Well, I'm done, so I'm going to my locker to get my stuff." Keiko got up and waved before she left the cafeteria.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rei watched as Liei and Kurama walked in the room. A million rabid fan-girls instantly formed a mob around Kurama, obviously ignoring the shorter Liei. Kurama's words flew throughout the room, the girls having hushed at the opening of his mouth.
"Please, girls do calm yourselves. I'm sorry but I have a girlfriend now, and I think we'll be together for a while." Kurama said, putting his arm affectionately around the blushing Liei. The fan-girls stomped away, whispering homicide plans and casting hateful glares over their shoulders towards Liei, who was exiting the lunch room with Kurama's arm still around her.
"Yup. Their date's tonight guys. At the nicest Italian, candlelit restaurant in town." Rei said blandly as she picked up her lunch and disposed of the mutilated remains. She glanced at it before however, and noticed she couldn't have eaten that much. She glanced back at Hiei, whose cheeks resembled those of a chipmunk's. She held back a giggle as he tried to smile and nearly choked on the massive cork of rice.
Rei rushed out the doors and set her sights on following the two lovebirds. She saw them as specks far up the hall in a perfectly deserted area. She moved in closer stealthily and saw they were talking quietly to each other. Rei squashed herself against a wall, then the far side of a locker. She nervously peered out before jerking her head back into hiding as Kurama turned and scanned the hallway for any living things besides germs. Rei peeked out and caught the two right in the middle of kissing. The two suddenly separated, blushing furiously and mumbling apologies. Rei made a triumphant sign.
'BUSTED! Kissing in the school hallway! I hope they caught you on camera!' she thought as she did a victory dance.
Then a hand rested on her shoulder and a voice whispered in her ear, "I have a feeling however, that we won't get caught."
Rei turned and then felt lips press gently against hers. She looked into Hiei's red eyes and felt her face become warmer as blush covered it like paint. She pulled away from Hiei, who appeared to be already recovered from the horribly traumatic experience Rei had barely started to get over. She watched as his expression changed into a goofy idiotic grin.
'Oh no...His brain has been tainted! Hurry! He cannot get warm, fuzzy feelings! I repeat, he cannot get WARM, FUZZY FEELINGS!'
Rei backed away from Hiei and noticed the clock. Ten minutes since she left lunch?
'How has it been so long? Did Minamino kiss Liei THAT long? Wait... How long was Hiei kissing ME?! ' she thought in confusion, hoping that Minamino had been kissing Liei that long, not Hiei kissing her.
(A/n/Hint... If Hiei hadn't kissed her for over two minutes, how could Liei and Kurama NOT have heard the slight thud against the locker? ^_^)
"Um...Hiei?"
"Yes?"
"When exactly is our next class?"
"1:21 p.m."
"Ok, so we have 11 minutes. Math, right?"
"Yeah...It's at the other end of the building."
Rei tore open her locker, snatched up her math books and dashed down the hallway at record speed. She saw lockers become blurs as class numbers whirred far above her head. She managed to make out room 315 and hit her imaginary brakes and skidded to a halt in front of room 316, her math room. She opened the door and raced to a seat next to Liei. She collapsed in her chair and laid her head on her desk.
'I'll just rest my eyes for a minute or two...' she thought, as she closed her eyes and drifted off...
*THWACK!* Rei's head snapped up. "Reporting for duty sir!" she shouted.
The teacher glared at her. She wielded the yard stick in her left hand like a sword as she looked down her hawk nose at Rei.
"Rei Yoruryu! How dare you not only arrive .4567548 seconds late for my class, but you FALL ASLEEP as well?! You most certainly will get detention for an entire month! Are you listening to me young lady?"
Rei looked up at her, a bored expression slapped on her tired face.
"Nope."
"Are you going to pay attention to me and show me the respect I deserve?"
"Nope."
"Are you going to even try looking half interested in what I'm saying?!"
"Nope."
"Are you EVER going to STOP SAYING NOPE???!!!"
"Yup." Rei yawned as her head dropped onto her desk, fast asleep.
The math teacher fumed and glared around the room to look for another student to accuse of Rei's nap. She caught sight of Liei instantly and jabbed her yardstick into her face.
"This is YOUR fault! You are a horrible influence on this lovely young lady behind me! You are ALSO going to get detention, unless you ACE your Botany test! I mean a PERFECT score!"
Liei shrugged, as if not concerned, and flicking the yard stick back towards the teacher's face said, "Too easy."
The teacher swelled as she failed to hit Liei's head off and great purple clouds of steam poured from her ears. The class murmured and laughs went around the room as well as, " OOH! New girl's gonna get it now!"
"YOUNG LADY! You are in big trouble now! Now just sit down and be a good innocent 15 year old girl who obeys her teachers as I go and fill out your detention slip."
It was Liei's turn to cast a look of death. Yusuke stared at the teacher's retreating back, expecting her to erupt in flames any second and then crumble to the floor as a pile of smoldering ashes. The teacher returned and was handing the slip to Liei when a voice spoke out behind her.
"You should back off from my friend, you bitch."
The monosyllables carried enormous impact, which sent the class to instant murmurs as the teacher cast evil death glares throughout the room. Rei yawned as she sat up and looked at the teacher. Then, all of the sudden, Liei and Rei exploded laughing as more purple steam billowed from not only the teacher's ears, but her nose, mouth and off the top of her graying head.
Yusuke and the others gawked at this strange event. Liei and Rei dying of laughter, the teacher's head so enveloped in purple smoke it looked like a giant afro and then the evil chalk falling from behind the teacher's ear onto Liei's small black notebook.
"What is THIS?" the teacher said wickedly as she snatched the notebook from Liei's desk.
"Hey! Give that back!" Liei shouted as she jumped up, her smile gone.
The teacher held the book higher, out of poor Liei's grasp. A wicked smile blanketed the teacher's face as she held it up further, opened it and prepared to read.
She blinked. Strange figures covered the pages though the entire thing, front and back. Her cunning smile had been replaced with a beautiful look of absolute confusion. Liei's hand snapped up over the pages and plucked it from the teacher's hand.
"Thank you ever so much for your returning my precious notes and research. Now, if you would also KINDLY cast your annoying face towards the clock, you shall notice you have kept all of us late. Now, if you will KINDLY excuse me, I would like to get to my next class...Kindly." she said coolly as she picked up her books and left.
The class was silent. The class pet was silent. Yusuke was silent. Even Kuwabara and the air conditioning were silent. Then the teacher looked slowly towards the clock, to see that in fact, she had kept the class late, as they were supposed to leave eight minutes ago. She was left in silence, except for the squeak of the door as it closed one last time.
"I can't believe Liei DID that! She's NEVER talked back to any teacher, EVER!" Rei shrieked as they walked down the hallway.
"I never thought that someone so kind and quiet would ever dare talk back to someone, let alone stand up to them. Usually they kiss up to them..." Kurama said quietly. They'd all admitted to being pretty stunned by Liei's walking out on the teacher so quickly.
"I guess even she can get pissed off. Well, I grabbed my stuff earlier, so I'll see you in the next class, ok guys?" Kurama said as he quickly strode towards the door.
"Yeah right... I bet you're gonna make out with Liei..." Rei mumbled under her breath, recalling the kiss earlier.
"You say something Rei?" Yusuke asked.
"Hm? Oh, of course not..." Rei replied.
They watched Kurama vanish inside. Rei sighed and looked over their group, noticing it was missing a small important member.
"Hey guys, where's Hiei?"
to be continued
Well, this was a tad longer than I thought it would be... Ok, sorry I had to end this at their school and also that this was much longer than the first chapter. I had to end this here because I'm trying to get 'The Matrix' out of my head, and when I watch a movie and then write a story the movie influences the story a lot. Well, bye 'til the next chapter!

'The Evil Math Teacher of Room 316'
(Psssst.... This has a lot of talking... Prepare for a strange conversations...)
Hiei looked down at Rei and sat down, still feeling a strong urge to slice off a few heads. He watched as Kurama's stunned look slowly dissolved into his usual cool, quiet, somehow girl attracting look. Liei spied the lingering murderous look in Hiei's eyes and said, " Minamino and I will go and sit outside, ok?"

"I bet their first date will be tomorrow night... I wonder how well THAT will go if he turns into Youko...?" he mumbled under his breath.
"How much are you willing to bet on their first date, Urameshi? Five dollars at least, right?"
"Um, what ARE you guys talking about? I know those two definitely like each other, but who or what is Youko?" Rei questioned innocently.
"Nothing important Rei. You sure those two like each other?"
"What rock have you been living under?! Of COURSE they like each other you dolt! But your bet for their first date is way off. Their first date is definitely tonight."
"You're JOKING! Well, at least we hope you are Rei. But are you ENTIRELY SURE?" Yusuke and Kuwabara leaned towards her. Rei looked mildly surprised in such an interest in a little thing like a date, but Hiei was hiding rather protective thoughts.
