Hope you will give more reviews or I would not know if anyone is reading this. Hiei did not tell Kurama about Yukina in the manga, not in the anime.

Hiei's POV

Another boring school day was over. I could not understand why Kurama even bother to go to school. All the teachers taught were things which using your common sense would get you directly to the answer. I spent some time reflecting on what happened yesterday, and finally after explaining what had occurred exactly, I fell asleep. The teacher woke me up, tried to humiliate me by asking me to solve one difficult (in their opinions) question. He ended up humiliating himself when I solved that problem within thirty seconds.

This is the most appropriate way I could put into words what had happened the day before.

(flashback)

The gentle breeze and violet sky outside, the warm smell of roses beside me, the peaceful pounding rhythm of our heats and systematic breathing, those were all so soothing. Too soothing. I felt surprisingly tired, so I let go of myself. I closed my eyes again and fell into semi- consciousness.

I was changed form my upright position to a lying one, and my head was cushioned on something soft. Without Kurama's head on my shoulder, I felt light, almost being able to float up, which I did not want to. Soon, a pressure was on me again, making me feel secure. I fell into deep slumber.

"Dinner is ready," Shiori's voice drifted in from the kitchen. I was awakened.

However, I could not move. I focused my sight and found Kurama's face barely an inch away from mine. My head was rested on his lap and he had placed his on my chest. He was sleeping soundly. I tried moving once more, growing embarrassed from our intimacy, but I could not bulge. His arms had binded me and they were tighter than anything in the world.

"Wake up, Kurama!" I shouted, but not loud enough to be heard from outside.

He stirred and I quickly pushed him away and jumped off the bed. I stared at him hard and fierce, not knowing any other way to hide my embarrassment.

"Don't push so hard next time," Kurama said sleepily.

"There would be no next time. Do not come near me."

Harsh were my words, but he did not seem to mind. He hopped off the bed and stretched in sort of a feline way. After that, the haze was gone and his eyes sparkled once more.

"I'm not sure if there's next time, but you can't stop me from going near you," he replied teasingly.

If anyone else had said that, I would have killed him on the spot. Suddenly, something dawned on Kurama and a wave of doubt washed over him, but that only lasted for a millisecond.

"Someday, I wish."

He cast one last look at me, somewhat sadly, and left the room leaving the sentence hanging in the air.

"I can't believe I did that," I muttered.

"What did you do?" a girlish voice replied.

I turned and saw a girl. I presumed she was a classmate. There was only the two of us left in the classroom. Kurama had to tuition some first years today. I ignored her and continued to pack my bag.

"Was it about Kurama?" the girlish voice had changed. It was icy and sent chills down my spine. I stopped at the name "Kurama". No Ningen ever knows his real name. I turned to face her once more. She did not look familiar, but her eyes had definitely changed colour, and it was those eyes, which I recognized.

"Who are you?" I tried to confirm my assumption.

"You already know, don't you? I just want to tell you, or may be it could be referred to as a warning, to stay away from Kurama. He is mine.

His eyes shone with insanity.

"What if I don't?" I replied just as icily.

"Then I would make you, or should I say let Kurama make you, stay away from him. I believe using Shiroi would be enough to do that, but if you make things difficult, Yukina would sure come in handy."

My rage reached its breaking point. My hands shook.

"Knocking out this body does not matter to."

He did not have the time to finish the sentence.

Kurama's POV

"Thanks, Minnamino-kun."

"Your welcome."

I tuned to leave. Another typical day was over. Stepping out of the school gate, I smelled the air. It was dry; the orange leaves of autumn gave the air a special aroma. I suddenly detected something unusual.

I walked over to one of the trees that lined the straight path home.

"Hiei, how rare of you to wait for me."

A black shadow jumped down from the tree and he stood in front of me. He had changed to his old cloak once more. One look at him and I knew something serious had happened. The flame of rage was burning in his ruby orbs.

"What's wrong?"

"Not here. Come," he replied curtly. It was easy to see that he was extremely tense, and one wrong word would be enough to make him snap. Normally, the angrier he is, the more cold and clam he is, but in this case, it was the opposite. It might be that he was angry to the limit or that someone precious to him had died, or else he always makes a point to hide his rage by coldness. I am not the only hypocrite.

A blur of dark shadow and he was far ahead of me. I tried my utmost to catch up, going as fast as this Ningen body would allow, but Hiei seemed to be just taking a stroll in the park.

"What are you doing? We could be spotted this way!"

"It doesn't matter. We already are."

My heart stopped for a beat. Had Karasu already striked?

We reached my house and Hiei did not even bother to go through the main door. He jumped onto a tree and leapt straight through my open window. I must admit he did a better job in this than me. Once I was in my room, I automatically set up a keikai around us.

"Now you can talk," trying to sound normal after that sprint.

"Karasu was here. Somehow his soul had escaped from Reikai. He possessed one of the girls in the class."

"What did he say? It is impossible for him to attack you through a Ningen body," I analyzed.

"He wants me to stay away from you because you are his. I knocked him out."

"What about the girl?"

"Knocked her out, woke her up, asked questions and erased memories," he answered as if saying ABC.

"Find anything?"

"No."

I though about how his soul could have escaped but it was useless. I have to ask Koenma about it. Hiei broke the silence after a few minutes.

"Now its your turn to talk."

"What?"

"The nightmares. I have been waiting for you to tell me yourself but there's no time now. Karasu had been haunting you, right?"

"It's none of your business," I snapped. Even I was a little surprised by my attitude.

Hiei blinked in shock, but after a moment, he sneered.

"Of course. How could the famous Youko Kurama ever need anyone to help him? Looks like I'm being unnecessary here," he prepared to jump out of the window.

"I'm sorry," I grabbed his wrist, "It's just that."

"It's just WHAT?" he yelled and striked my hand away forcefully, "You never trusted me enough to tell me how you feel. Oh! I forgot that you are a youko, and how could anyone like you believe in anybody but yourself? You are just trying to see how your charm works on the Forbidden Child, right?"

"You know that is not the reason," my voice rising, angry about his misunderstanding," I've trusted you more than I have trusted anyone else. It is rather you who do not believe in me."

"When?"

"You did not even tell me that Yukina is your sister. Even Yusuke felt I was trustworthy enough to tell me that!" my anger was increasing rapidly and I just wanted to shout out all the pain I felt over the years, all those frustration, fear, uncertainty I had to bear alone while pretending that nothing ever happened. "Do you know the pain I have felt when I knew that I was the only one left our to your secret? NO YOU DON'T! Do you understand how hard it is to keep up that nice disposition when I want to burst inside? NO YOU NEVER DID!"

"You think you are the only one who ever felt pain? DO YOU EVER TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE FEELING OF BEING BEFRATYED BY ONE YOU TRUSTED MOST? I was left in complete darkness when you betrayed me for Yusuke, whom you only know not more than a month that time. The single person who I believed in abandoned me. The feeling of being unwanted, being treated even less than an animal everywhere, that humiliation, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!"

His youki was burning more fiercely than ever, causing the surrounding to be extremely hot inside the keikai. My youki was not losing to his, and although I knew I must control it, I just felt too tired to do so. Too tired, that I just wanted to fall into eternal sleep on the spot. Too tired, and no strength was left to maintain my raging ki. Too tired, that I crumpled to the floor, leaving only me eyes open.

"Hiei. Listen to me," I whispered, using all the energy I had left.

His youki flared once more and broke through the keikai. A blur, and only air was in front of me. I closed my eyes, feeling a droplet of water trickled across my face, and falling silently onto the floor.
