Russian Roulette
Chapter 3: Oh The Persistance!
Hiei's Point Of View
Yukina was having a great time at school, she found four new friends, meanwhile I am stuck with a stupid rival who thinks he can control me just because he is class president and he's smart. Well, I am smart too. On Yuki and I'd first day, we didn't have to have PE but today was different. We got our uniforms, white shirts with black shorts and we had to do a whole bunch of different sport activities. Our first one was running.
" So Hiei, do you know how to run?" Kurama said, walking up to me.
" Yes, as a matter of fact, I do."
" What is with the attitude? I was just trying to start conversation!"
" I don't get it, why bother, I told you I don't need friends."
" I wasn't trying to be your friend, I just wanted to talk to you."
" Hmph, you just want to know me so you can get your popularity back."
" You're impossible to get along with!! I don't know how your sister stands you."
I turned around and grabbed him by is collar. " You don't know what Yuki and I have been through, prissy boy."
" I'd advise not starting a fight, the teachers are watching." He growled, smacking my hand away.
" Who cares?"
" You'll get kicked out of school for one."
" ..." I stayed quiet. Getting kicked out of school on the second day because of this prissy boy was not something I had in mind. Our teachers made us run six laps around the track and timed us. I knew I could do it, but Yukina was extremely frail, I didn't know how she would pull through. I was on my third lap when I caught up tp Yukina, panting heavily with her friends surrounding her, comforting her.
" Yukina?" I said, catching up to her. " What's wrong?"
" It's so hot, I can't run like this."
" She started going like this on the first lap."
" It's okay Hiei, you guys, go on without me. Maybe if I walk I'll catch my breath."
" No Yuki, it's our first day in PE, you have to get a good grade."
" Hiei, it's fine." Yukina said. I shook my head and lifted her up over my shoulder.
" Ahh!! Hiei!!"
" I'll just carry you over to the teachers and tell them you're not feeling well."
" Oh, I thought you were going to really carry me all five laps I didn't do."
" You really must be sick." I laughed. I carried her over to the PE teachers and they gave her an ice pack for her temperature and let her rest a while. When PE was over, in the changing room, Kurama came up to me.
" I saw you carrying your sister."
" She was getting hot and wasn't feeling well so I carried her over to the teachers."
" Oh, I thought she fainted or something."
" Do you really think I'd be that calm?"
" I'm sorry, I just know how much you care for your sister, considering you almost beat me into a bloody pulp."
" You know, I could still do that."
" Goodness! You are so hard to get along with!"
" Then maybe you should stop trying?"
" Hmmm, fine."
" You've said that so many times already." I said, finishing putting my shoes on. " One question?"
" What?"
" Why were you watching me carry Yukina anyway?" I said as I left.
" What does that mean!? ARGHH! You frustrate me!" He yelled. I turned to him and gave him a glare. Our next class was science. We were going to start chemistry so our teacher has a practice experiment to make liquid sugar, into granulated sugar. We had to pair into four people. Yukina was with her friends, except Naiomi was left over so she joined up with me, and Kurama and another girl paired up with us. Great.
" Ah! You're in our group Jishi?" Naiomi asked the other girl.
" Oh hey Naiomi! Aren't we lucky?"
" Oh yeah." Naiomi smiled.
" Great, I'm stuck with you." I glared at Kurama.
" Oh yeah, like I wanna be in your group."
" Oh you know you do, Mr. Friendly."
" I am kind of wishing you would clobber me so you would leave me alone."
" Leave YOU alone! You always follow me!"
" That because I am class president and I feel bad that you're a LONER!"
" Maybe I don't want friends unlike you, you prissy boy!"
" Oh yeah, how about we take this outside!"
" You boys can, get two buckets of water each and stand outside the door." The teacher said, sending us outside.
" Thanks alot, don't I look like a good example."
" Why don't you stop trying to please others and be yourself once in a while?"
" Because I was enjoy helping people."
" So you completely forget about yourself?"
" You know, you can really open up to people once you get into trouble." Kurama laughed.
" Open up? No, I am giving you a reality check. It is not your problem weither I don't have friends or not. It's your problem weither you are passing classes or not. Do not worry about me."
" Hmmm, I am glad you're talking about me. You know, you're really smart."
" Still won't give up?"
" Can I ask one thing of you?"
" What?"
" Can you just...open up to me?"
" Maybe, I'll have to see about that." I said. Kurama and I didn't talk the rest of the day, but it wasn't out of hatrid, I guess we just wanted to think about how things would be. It was afterschool, I was waiting for Yukina.
" Yukina!" I shouted, I ran up to her.
" Oh Hiei, hold on, we'll go in just a second."
" What for?"
" Naiomi wants to give you something."
" What is it Naiomi?"
" It's...a letter. Please read it when you get home." Naiomi said, blushing alot.
" I will, thank you." I nodded and Yukina and I walked off.
" What does this letter say Yuki?"
" I can't tell you! You'll have to find out for yourself."
" I hope it's not girly or anything..." I said.
" Hmmm." Yukina smiled.
" I got us a bag of rice, now we can have rice with our ramen!"
" Yeah! Did you get any more jelly buns?"
" Of course."
" Thanks Hiei. You're the best brother ever!" Yukina smiled, wrapping her arms around me.
