Thank you all for waiting so patiently while I took my sweet time updating. This chapter is really going to focus on Hiei talking to Kurama about Botan, and the next chapter is only going to be on Botan talking to Genkai. They are going to be short, I can tell you that much, but I hope you still enjoy. Bye.

Hiei is at Kurama's house now talking to him about things.
"Kitsune."
"Yes Hiei? What can I help you with?"
"What makes you so sure I want help?"
"Why else would you be coming here right after escorting Botan home?"
"Fine. Tell me now."
"No way. Not until you ask nicely."
"Hn. Forget it."
"All right then. I won't be helping you out with your girl problems"
Hiei grabbed Kurama's hair and made a motion to cut it off.
"What makes you think I have girl problems?"
"Botan. You seem to always act weird whenever someone says her name now. Is something going on between you two? I mean other than the fact that you want to kill any and every man who looks at her."
"Fine. Will you please help me?" Hiei's voice dripped with malevolence at having to ask and say please.
"Yes Hiei. Now what do you need help with?"
"Botan."
"Botan?"
"Botan."
"Well, you have to help me out here. Give me some ideas of some things that have happened between you and Botan. And I'll see what I can figure out."
"When Koenma threw the fireballs and Botan fell, I caught her, and she kissed me on the cheek, and I liked it. I liked it a lot. And when I was cursing her out, I didn't mean it. I didn't mean any of it. I actually liked having her on my arm. And I can't stand seeing her cry. And I was scared to answer about how I felt about her, because she was right there. And I'm scared of rejection from her. And when she got her bra stuck in her hair, nothing happened, even though you all thought something did, I could tell. I only saw her back. But her hair, it's silky. Very silky. And when she had to put her bra on, it got stuck in her hair too. Her hair is way too long, don't you think? And, when I called her my deity, I meant it. I want her to be mine. It's not just lust, and I know it. When you asked me who I was going to the ball with, I had already decided that no matter what, I was going with Botan. While we dancing I said 'the dress looks good on you onna' and she said 'Botan, how hard is it to say Botan, Jaganshi?' and all I could think of was how good Botan Jaganshi sounds. When I took her home, she kissed me on the cheek, and I couldn't stop thinking about how disappointing it was that she was the one to kiss me instead of the other way around, and how disappointing it was that it was only on the cheek."
Kurama was, to say the least, shocked. "Hiei, you're in love. Who would have thought. I thought you only liked her. Damn! I'm surprised to say the least. I never would have imagined that you would fall in love with the ditz, as you call her."
"I'm not in love. I don't fall in love."
"Yes you are. You are as in love as anyone can get."
Hiei's eyes bugged out when he heard what Kurama said.
"What do I do?"
"Talk to her. Tell her how you feel. And then whatever happens, happens."
"Hn. Fine. But-"
"No buts. She'll never know unless you tell her. And it will only hurt you more if you don't tell her."
"Hn. Baka kitsune. Fine. But if you tell anyone, and I mean anyone, I'll chop off your head."
"My head? You're going to decapitate me if I tell anyone you're in love?!!!"
"I warned you kitsune."
"Ok, ok…agreed. I won't tell anyone you're in love."
Hiei ran off to go find Botan.
Review please and tell me what I can do better. Also, the next chapter is only going to be Botan and Genkai talking. And from then on, we'll see how it goes. Until next time. Ciao!
