Chapter 16

So what was I supposed to do now? Kurama was going to be leaving me in the morning. Should I go with him? No. I need to stay here. I can't risk getting hurt. But then again,what about Kurama? What if he gets hurt? Shouldn't I be able to be with him? But at least he's not going to leave for a couple of hours.

I had a hard time going to sleep again. I couldn't stop thinking about what I was going to do. Why the hell did this have to be so hard? The only thing I could think about was Kurama. I didn't want him to get hurt. And now I had come back into the reality of things. I knew this wasn't a dream anymore.

"Nicole?"Kurama asked as he opened the door. "You aren't asleep yet?"

"Sorry. I just can't."

"What's wrong?"

I sighed. "I don't know."

"I know exactly what's wrong. You still want to go home right?"

"Yes."

"Just give it some time."

I had to tell him the truth. "Kurama...I just don't want you to get hurt." I sat up and put my head on his shoulder.

He hugged me and kissed me on the forehead. "Why didn't you just tell me?"

"Because I've just been so frustrated about this."

"I know...I know. This isn't easy on you,I know. This hasn't been easy on anybody. I worry about you too."

"I know I should stop acting like this,but I think that my emotions have taken over me."

"Don't worry about it."

"I want to come with you this time."

"No."

"What?"

He stared at me. "I get the feeling that something is going to happen to me,and I don't want you to see it."

"Like what?"

He shook is head. "I don't want to talk about it."

"Please Kurama...I'll understand."

"I might turn into a demon..."

I couldn't believe it. Kurama,a demon? No. This couldn't be true.

"Now please go back to sleep Nicole,"and he shut the door.
