Chapter 17:
Disclaimer: *has already ripped its own voice box out*
A few weeks passed since Kurama woke up. He was coming home today. We were so excited about seeing him for the first time, besides laying down asleep.
And as everyone was sitting around waiting for Hiei to return, I was sick. I laid on the couch with Blair, feeling nauseous. I had tried to keep my head straight with my neck, so that I wouldn't hurl.
Heidi had returned. But she was gone now... She had been for a few hours. To where, I didn't know, but that was ok.
*
When Kurama entered the door, incredibly thin and pale, every one jumped up to greet him. Even I did.
I hugged him, crying. "I tried to help you Kurama...I really did..." I say, tears of happiness streaming down my face.
He shook his head no. "There was nothing you could do. The water we drank is probably going to give us a disease anyways." We laugh and part. As I move away, I start to feel a slight bit better. Maybe I was feeling sick because I was nervous, that it was my fault. Or maybe it was the water!
I laugh to my self, and watch as they open champagne across the room. I decline, already feeling sick enough. Hiei will drunk will be funny as hell, and I would want to see it in a sober state of mind.
Even if he never ate much, he would drink if you told him to sometimes. I guess it depended on his state of mind. But, today he had accepted, because Kurama asked. Hiei was so nice like that though.
"Can we watch a movie?" I ask over every body talking about what they wanted to see on television for half an hour.
"Yeah, do ya have anything with ya?" Hiei asked me, quite nicely. He was just too damn sexy this way. His read eyes more happy and alive than usual. He wasn't wearing his black cloak, that made him look even more like a demon. He had a human body, and I always thought he should take advantage of it. Some demons have a body that makes them look like a giant lobster.
I grin from ear to ear. "Moulin Rouge!" Kiaru sighs. She thought I was obsessed with it.
"You and that movie... we'd of had to have watched it ten times..."
"So what if I have a 'ridiculous obsession with love'?" I grin, saying things that came straight form the movie. "Love, love is like oxygen, love is one of many, all you need is love!" She grins at me.
I quickly rush to my room and grab the video out of my bag. I some how knew I'd be watching it.

"Why wont you let me pay you Satine!" Christian and Satine run through the set of the play, and onto the stage. Ziddler stand in awe, as Christian stands, instead of the narcoleptic Argentinean. They stand in silence for a few seconds before he speaks.
"I am not fooled! For it is the same, Sitar (spelling...?) player! He has just shaved off his beard! (I'm not sure of the exact words!)"
Christian starts to walk off the stage, and Satine follow, but not before tripping, and falling to the floor. She cried out to him ,and he stood beside her. Throwing money at the ground angrily, he yells out.
"THERE. I HAVE PAID MY WHORE." Everyone in the audience gasps, and he starts to walk away. They are in silence as the man leaves.
"Oh how I love this movie..." I sit and stare in awe. I was feeling pretty good now. Being between two hot guys, watching a love movie, and now drinking champagne.
"Never knew I could feel like this....like I've never seen, the sky before..." Satine chokes out from the stage to him. "Want to vanish, inside your kiss. And tell you, I love you more..."
They both start to sing together, and Christian starts walking back towards the stage. 'Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing? Telling me to give you everything. Seasons may change, winter to spring. But I love you, until the end of time.
"Come what may... Come what may... I will love you, until my dieing day... And there's no mountain too high, no river to wide. Sing out this song and Ill be there, by your side. Cause I love you, I love you, until my dieing day..."
They continue to sing in harmony, as the duke and his body guard try to kill Christian. Such a sweet ending, so far. As the curtains close, Satine starts to cough.
"It's so sad..." I had been crying since they started to fall in love again. Satine is bleeding from the mouth, and Christian is hold her body, like a doll. He cries out her name, sobbing loudly. But Satine never does wake up....
Blair and Hiei stare at the television screen blankly. "And if that wasn't the most drawn out, romantic love story I've ever seen..." Blair trails off. Hiei nods at him.
"Well, that's just because you don't have a heart for real romance. Everyone else here besides you guys like love."
Kurama spoke up, "I personally thought it wasn't that bad...just weird.."
"I liked the dancers-" Blair is cut off by me smacking him upside the head.
"Boy, so much for you!" He tries to regroup, but I get up and walk away. "I'm going to get some dinner." If I can keep the food down...
*
Macaroni and cheese with icy cold ginger ale. Ah the food of child hood.
I slowly roll pieces of bread into little balls while we wait for our food. Kiaru is on the other side of the table drawing a face on Jack the sea shell. Seta is on the right side of me, and Kurama on the left.
We eat surprisingly, in silence. I think the guys thought I was weird or something now, for watching a movie filled with prostitution and sex. Oh well. I sit, eating, and am fine until I start to feel sick again. I quickly say that I'm full and sit for a few minutes.
It only gets worse, but I sit for as long as I can, trying not to let any one know. If I was openly sick around them, they'd all freak out. So after I can't hold it in anymore, I say that I'm tired, and leave quickly.
As soon as the doors open I cover my mouth. I lean over, holding my stomach wit one arm. Leaving one on my mouth, I release the other, and run into the room.
*POV Change- Kiaru*
I watch as Rai runs into the room. Her hand were over her mouth, and I could tell she was sick. She would have been talking if she was ok. I look at Seta. She was also watching out of the corner of her eye. I motion for us to go, and she stands.
"We'll be right back, excuse us." I tell them, and leave with Seta.
Standing in the elevator, I watch to make sure none of them were following us. "Is she going to be alright?" Seta asks.
"I think... She wasn't being herself down there...or all night for that matter." I walk into the room to the sound of coughing. She was probably throwing up. Why didn't she tell us...?
I shut the door quietly and wait. I hear her water running. Just as the thud of her feet gets closer to the door, I step in. she looks at me shocked, almost. "Why aren't you guys down at dinner...?"
"I saw you come up here. Your sick..." She looks away. "why didn't you say something?"
"I don't know...I don't even know what's wrong with me..."
"Well you just hurled. And that in itself is unusual for you." Rai holds onto her left arm, scratching at a certain spot. It's red by now.
"What did you do...?"
Seta steps in. "I know what the girl did. Exactly. She started to feel sick lately, immediately panicked cause she thought she could be pregnant, then gave her self a few doses of that Vikaden she took to try and down herself out and clam down."
Rai looks at her, her dark blue eyes never moving.
