Russian Roulette
Chapter 6: Forced Invitation!
Hiei's Point Of View
It was Tuesday. I could have easily said Kurama didn't like me the way I liked him. I don't even know why I liked him. I just felt so comfortable around him. It's the fastest I've ever opened up to somebody and all he did was hit me. It didn't hurt, not at all but it's the thought that counts. But the again, I shouldn't have been forcing myself on him...
" Umm, Hiei, I am really sorry." He said, walking up to me in the hallway.
" Will you shut up!? That's the only thing you've said to be since first period!!" I yelled.
" Well, you never forgave me."
" You don't always forgive and forget. You want to be my friend, you want to know me better? Don't talk to me."
" Hey Hiei! Wanna walk with us to class?" Yukina smiled, taking my arm.
" Uhh, sure." I said. He glanced at me, and went on his way behind us, (we had the same class) I hated that stupid jerk. It was during lunch when it really started bugging me. He would glance at me now and then and I could feel his stares down my spine. I continued eating my sandwich, trying to eat it with no hands.
" Hiei, what are you doing?" Naiomi asked.
" I am trying to eat my sandwich without using my hands."
" Hey Naiomi, can I talk to Hiei alone?" Yukina asked.
" Oh, sure!" Naiomi smiled, running to the other girls.
" What is it?" I asked.
" Well, the girls invited me to a party but there are boys going..."
" Yuki..." I said with anger in my tone.
" I know, I was hesitant about going as well."
" What do you want to do?"
" I don't think I want to go." Yukina sighed.
" I understand. It's nothing to worry about." I said, patting her head. " Just tell your friends you're busy."
" But I don't want to lie."
" But you and I both know we can't tell the truth, can we Yuki?" I smiled.
" No." Yukina smiled back.
" Just tell your friends you can't go, simple as that. Tell them mom said so." I said, giving her a sadness-filled smile.
" I bet she would say that." She said, the bell rang and we were off to our English Language class. Today we would be reading. I thought of it as nothing, until the teacher called on me.
" Hiei, could you read the next paragraph?"
" Umm, yes." I said standing up with the book in my hand. I looked at the words and everything became a blur. I couldn't read anything. I stayed quiet.
" Hiei? Have you been studying lately?" The teacher asked.
" No. I have been very busy with home lately."
" You can tell me what has been going on after school and maybe I'll let you slide."
" I'd prefer to keep my private life to myself. Who knows what juciy gossip you teachers spill in the teacher's lounge."
" Fine Hiei, not only will you be getting trash duty during lunch tomorrow for talking back, I am going to assign you a study session over the weekend with the person with the highest grade in the class." She said. I sighed, knowing I would have to cancel work this weekend.
" Fine." I nodded.
" That person is...Suuichi Minamino." She called out. I froze. I'd have to spend a full day with Kurama, studying English language, rather then working and making sure Yukina and I have food. Kurama didn't make a sound.
" Is that alright with you Suuichi?" The teacher asked.
" Yes." he said.
" Take a seat Hiei, hopefully this study session will help you out."
It was afterschool, I was waiting for Yukina by the gate, she was standing around her friends with some guys in an upperclass. Yukina was talking to the tall boy in the middle and he didn't seem happy, neither did she. He grabbed her wrist quickly and fondled her breasts and pushed her off of him.
" Yuki..." I growled. I quickly ran over there and punched the guy in the face.
" Hiei!!" Naiomi cried, her voice full of thanks. She and her friends took Yukina back a few steps, while I stood in front of the boys.
" What do you want short stuff?" The main boy glared. I glanced at them.
" Aren't ya gonna talk?" The other boy said.
" Hey, he punched me! Little bastard." Another one said. I raised my leg slightly and kicked everybody except the one who fondled Yukina, they were knocked out of the floor. I reached in my pocket and pulled out a switch blade. The boy quivered.
" Hey! Don't come any closer! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" He cried.
" They always cry when they are in danger and yet when they don't know the consiquencies, they end up doing whatever they feel until they are dancing between life and death. I suggest you don't touch my sister or anybody else or you'll soon realize how bad of a place hell can be." I sneered, closing my knife in a smooth motion. I looked to my left as the boy scampered off. Kurama was standing there, he had seen the whole thing. I helped Yukina up and left for home.
" Hiei, I am sorry about what happened today."
" What exactly happened?" I asked.
" Well, those guys are the ones who invited us to the party and when they found out I couldn't go, they got upset."
" I'm glad you aren't going to that party."
" Imagine what would have happened there." Yukina laughed.
" That is nothing to laugh about, you saw me, I am not afraid of doing it again."
" I know, I am glad you protect me."
" You're my sister, what do you expect?" I smiled.
" Nothing more."
A/N: Maybe it's just me or my chapters have gotten really short? Oh well, the next one will be longer I am sure. WHOO! You got a taste and bits of foreshadowing. Clues that will be in the next part of the story. So stay tuned!
