Chapter 20
For almost two weeks I was in the hospital praying that Kurama would be all right. He was not by my side when I was released. But I didn't care about that. The only thing I cared about was that he was ok. I wanted to go to the stadium to see how he was doing,but I realized that I didn't need to go. I needed to stay at the hotel and get rest like Kurama had told me.
When I got back to the hotel there was no one there. But I was ok with that. I needed to be by myself for a while so I could think. I didn't want to run away. There was no way I could possibly do that now. If they were to lose this fight,maybe. But I knew that wasn't going to happen.
But I thought that it would (once again) by boring to stay in here by myself. I wanted to get away from this feeling I was getting. I didn't want to think anymore bad thoughts. I knew that Kurama was going to be all right. I just knew it.
I decided that would just stay in the woods by the hotel. It seemed like the safest place for me. At least Kurama would know where I was when he came back to greet me.
As I waited outside,I got to thinking that Kurama wasn't going to come back for me. I mean,I had waited for him for two weeks in the hospital and he never showed up. But that was only because he couldn't be by my side. But that was only for a reason. He had to fight. It was his job.
As I walked further into the forest I started to sense something. And it felt like something was happening to Yusuke. But what was it? I ran faster into the forest so no one could follow me. I didn't want anything to go wrong again.

There he was...lying on the ground...hurting... What the hell had happened here,I thought. Who had done this to him? Why would anyone want to do this to Yusuke? I then felt somebody's footsteps coming closer to me. It was Genkai.
"Genkai... what happened here?" I asked.
"Just take care of him until Kayko comes,"she said as she left us.
I didn't want to ask her what had happened. I knew she had something to with this. I just didn't want to know what. But I knew that Yusuke was going to get better. He always did.
"Nicole!"Kayko asked as she came running towards us.
"Kayko."
"What happened to Yusuke?"
I shook my head. "I don't Kayko." I got up and started to leave them.
"Wait! Where are you going?"
"It's over isn't it...until the next fight?"
"Yes..."
"Then I'm going back to Kurama. I need to see him again,"and I ran off to make sure that everything was ok.

I ran upstairs to the hotel room to find Kurama waiting for me. I didn't wonder how long he had been waiting for me. I was just glad to see him again.
"Oh thank god you're ok,"he said as he hugged me and starting kissing me. "I was so worried."
"I was out in the woods with Yusuke."
"Is he all right?"
"I...I don't know. I sensed his spirit energy,so I ran off to find him and when I did he was laying on the ground... So I waited until Kayko came. But I think he's going to be ok."
"Are you ok?"
I nodded. "I'm fine Kurama."
"Good. I was worried about you."
"I didn't think you were going to come back."
"I know. But I'm back. At least I get to stay here with you longer."
"Let me at least go to the finals with you."
"Are you sure?"
I nodded. "Yes. I missed you so much."
He sighed and kissed my forehead. "I missed you too."
"What happened?"
"What do you mean?"
"Did you...?"
"Turn into a demon? Yes Nicole. But I didn't mean it. I got trapped in a force field."
"It's ok."
"What?"
"I understand. I love you. I can't be mad at you."
He sighed. "That's good."
"I need to get over it."
"Let's not talk about that right now ok? We've got seven days before the next tournament ok?"
I smiled and kissed him. "Good. Because I want to spend every second those seven days with you."
